Chapter 131 Suspected hot beauty hookup
Shen Lai's throat seemed to be blocked by something and he couldn't make a sound.
She had to admit that if Pei Jingyan had told her the truth a few months ago, she would never have agreed to marry him.
At that time, she was avoiding Pei Jingyan, so how could she be with him?
"Look, you know it won't happen, right?" Pei Jingyan's smile was filled with self-mockery. "How could you be willing to marry me if you hate me so much?"
Shen Lai's throat was dry. "Even so, this is not a reason for you to plot against me."
Pei Jingyan could have told the truth, but he didn't. From beginning to end, Pei Jingyan treated her like a fool.
Pei Jingyan said in a deep voice: "Then tell me, what should I do? Should I watch you abort the child?"
Shen Lai choked.
"Chen Lai, I finally got the chance to be close to you, how could I possibly give up?" Pei Jingyan's dark eyes were like a bottomless cold pool, flashing with a paranoid light. "Do you know how happy I was when I learned about your pregnancy on Weibo?"
"I can finally be with you legitimately."
Shen Lai looked at Pei Jingyan in front of her and felt so unfamiliar for the first time, as if she had not really known him for all these years.
But true.
If she really understood Pei Jingyan, she wouldn't have known now that Pei Jingyan liked her.
"Chen Lai, do you know how I felt when I learned that you and Huo Chilin were together when I was abroad?"
Pei Jingyan suddenly changed the subject. He approached Shen Lai, his shadow engulfing her oppressively. His deep voice contained a chilling chill. "I want to snatch you away from you, lock you up, and make you belong to me alone for the rest of your life."
"So I don't dare go back to China, because I'm afraid I might do something after I come back."
"So I can only look at the photos the private investigator sent me, and see how sweet you and him were on a date."
Seeing the morbid paranoia in Pei Jingyan's eyes that had finally stopped pretending, Shen Lai suddenly said, "So that night in the hotel, you deliberately took advantage of me being drugged?"
Pei Jingyan's body stiffened, red bloodshot crawled up his eyes. He looked at Shen Lai, a dead look flashing in his eyes, "In your heart, am I this kind of person?"
Shen Lai suddenly bit his lips.
Pei Jingyan almost squeezed out a voice from between his teeth, "In your heart, I am the one who took advantage of you while you were in trouble?"
Shen Lai's heart suddenly skipped a beat, as if he saw loneliness and sorrow in Pei Jingyan's eyes.
Shen Lai's heart seemed to be tugged at. She couldn't help but think of the past few months when the two of them were getting along. Although Pei Jingyan was harsh in his words, he had never done anything to her. He was always restrained.
If Pei Jingyan was really that kind of despicable person, he would have attacked her long ago after they had been alone together for so many nights.
Shen Lai took a breath and said, "Even if you didn't plan this, do you dare to say that you didn't plan everything that happened next?"
"Pei Jingyan, you've been playing me around from beginning to end."
Pei Jingyan clenched his fists little by little, and veins appeared on the back of his hands.
Shen Lai didn't want to talk nonsense with him anymore, so she walked around him and was about to leave. Pei Jingyan suddenly grabbed her wrist and said in a tight voice, "Where are you going?"
Shen Lai didn't look at him, his profile was indifferent, "I plan to go home and spend time with my parents during this time."
Pei Jingyan's grip on her wrist tightened little by little, "You want to divorce me?"
Shen Lai was silent for a long time. She broke free from Pei Jingyan's hand and said, "Let's calm down for now."
Pei Jingyan's hands were empty, and Shen Lai had already left the room.
In the Shen family villa, Chang Suning was delighted to see Shen Lai coming back, and asked why Pei Jingyan didn't come back with her.
Shen Lai paused for a moment, "He's been very busy at the company recently and has to travel frequently, so he doesn't have much time."
Chang Suning didn't think too much about it. It was normal that Pei Jingyan had to manage the company and had no time to come. She didn't think too much about it and quickly asked the housekeeper to prepare dinner.
After the family finished dinner, Shen Lai returned to her room. She lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling, wondering what she was thinking.
The little things she had experienced with Pei Jingyan kept coming to her mind. In fact, she could just pretend that nothing had happened and continue to be with Pei Jingyan.
She likes Pei Jingyan, and Pei Jingyan also likes her, so everyone is happy.
But Chen Lai could not get over the fact that Pei Jingyan had deceived her.
Even if Pei Jingyan took the initiative to confess to her, she would not be so angry, but Pei Jingyan said nothing.
If she hadn't discovered it, Pei Jingyan didn't know when to tell her.
Just then, the cell phone in Shen Lai's pocket rang.
She took out her cell phone and saw a message from Pei Jingyan: "I'm downstairs at your house, let's talk."
Shen Lai did not respond.
After a while, the text message rang again: "If you don't come out, I will go in to find you."
Shen Lai took a deep breath and finally typed on the screen: "Okay, if you come in, I will tell my parents everything you did to plot against me. What do you think their reaction will be when they find out?"
Sure enough, there was no response from the other side.
Shen Lai placed his phone upside down on the bed, closed his eyes tightly, and took a deep breath.
In the next few days, Chen Lai stayed at home. Chang Suning was very happy at first, but later she gradually realized that something was wrong. Chen Lai had stayed at home for too many days, and Pei Jingyan had never shown up.
At dinner in the evening, Chang Suning asked cautiously, "Lai Lai, did you have a fight with Jing Yan?"
Shen Lai paused holding the chopsticks. Seeing her parents looking at her, she pretended to be calm and said, "No, why would we quarrel when we are fine?"
"Then why haven't you been back there these days?" Chang Suning looked at her suspiciously, "And why hasn't Jing Yan contacted you?"
Shen Lai forced a smile, "We often contact each other on the phone, but you and Dad didn't see it."
Chang Suning was skeptical, "Really?"
Shen Lai said helplessly: "Of course it's true, but he's been busy recently so he can't come to see me. Besides, we're fine, so don't always expect us to quarrel, okay?"
Worried that her parents would notice something, Shen Lai took a few bites of rice, said she was full, and got up to go back to her room.
The weather has been bad these days, and it's drizzling outside. Chen Lai sits in front of the windowsill, staring at the lawn in the yard in a daze. The row of succulents on the shelf in the corner is being mercilessly beaten by the rain.
I heard that Pei Jingyan had it planted specifically when he redeemed the villa.
Shen Lai let out a light breath through his nose.
Pei Jingyan even knew that she liked succulents, and he had investigated her preferences clearly.
How come she hadn't noticed this little detail before?
At this time, the mobile phone in Shen Lai's pocket rang. She took it out and took a look. It was another message pushed by Weibo.
boring.
Just as Shen Lai was about to put it back in his pocket, he inadvertently caught sight of a familiar name and his fingertips suddenly froze.
"The president of Pei Group went into a bar at night and was suspected of hooking up with a hot beauty."
In the picture below, a hot woman is clinging to Pei Jingyan, feeding him wine in an intimate manner.
