Chapter 18 Will I Take the Initiative to Hug You?
Shen Lai suddenly opened his eyes wide and said in disbelief: "I threw myself into your arms?"
How is that possible!
Pei Jingyan asked back: "Would I take the initiative to hug you?"
His expression was calm and frank, which made Shen Lai a little uncertain.
She does have the habit of holding something when she sleeps. Could it be that she mistakes Pei Jingyan for the LABUBU in her rental house?
Watching Shen Lai's expression change from certainty to uncertainty and then to guilt, something flashed in Pei Jingyan's eyes. He said slowly, "But since you accidentally solved the program crew's surprise attack, I won't bother with you."
Pei Jingyan acted very magnanimous, and Shen Lai retorted unconvincedly, "You don't suffer any loss, do you? Don't act like you've been taken advantage of."
Pei Jingyan suddenly leaned forward, his low, hoarse voice carrying a hint of alluring charm, "Of course I'm at a disadvantage. Do you know how many people want to touch me but can't?"
Looking at Pei Jingyan's face so close to her, his deep pupils staring at her without blinking, Shen Lai couldn't help but recall last night when the two of them were eating biscuit bars, and the warmth that instantly spread from her face to her neck.
She swallowed unconsciously, "You, you think you are RMB, everyone wants to put it in their pocket. I just accidentally treated you as my pillow, otherwise I wouldn't want to hug you!"
Pei Jingyan smiled, "So, Miss Shen admits that she took advantage of me last night?"
After realizing that he had been tricked, Shen Lai refused to admit it. "I didn't say that. Who knows if you deliberately took advantage of me and then blamed me."
After saying that, she pushed Pei Jingyan and said, "Get out of the way. I need to go wash up."
Then he quickly threw off the quilt, got out of bed, ran into the bathroom as if fleeing, and locked the door from the inside.
Shen Lai leaned against the door, breathed a sigh of relief, then remembered something and hurriedly checked his pajamas.
The clothes were intact except for a few wrinkles, nothing unusual.
Shen Lai secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then laughed at himself.
There is no way Pei Jingyan would be interested in her.
What's more, she is pregnant now, so Pei Jingyan should not be so beastly.
downstairs.
Huo Chilin had just come out of the room when two staff members passed by him and said with emotion, "I didn't expect that Miss Shen and President Pei, who were the least favored at the beginning, would have such a good relationship and even slept in each other's arms."
"Yeah, I feel so sweet even through the screen!"
"When will you give me a husband like Pei Jingyan?"
Huo Chilin suddenly stopped and looked up at the two staff members who were walking away.
He took out his mobile phone from his pocket and clicked on Weibo, and saw the trending searches with the names of Chen Lai and Pei Jingyan, and below them were clips that were screenshots taken by fans.
In the photo, Shen Lai was sleeping in Pei Jingyan's arms. The two were almost touching each other, and their postures were so intimate that it was impossible for them to act out.
This Weibo post is full of comments praising the two people.
【This is the first time I think they are such a good match! 】
[I'm also wondering why I didn't realize how beautiful Chen Lai is before. Even without makeup, she's more beautiful than 99% of the celebrities in the entertainment industry, right?]
[Those who say Shen Lai is pestering Huo Chilin, how could you still be interested in Huo Chilin when you have such a handsome husband? Even if you were blind, you wouldn't do such a thing, right?]
[Anyway, I don't know whether Chen Lai likes Mr. Pei or not, but it's obvious that Mr. Pei likes Chen Lai very much, even hugging her like this. If he really hated her, he would definitely not do such a thing.]
[Add one to the above! It's like this, it must be true love! ]
Huo Chilin's hand holding the water cup made a crackling sound because he was holding it too tightly.
Did Shen Lai and Pei Jingyan sleep together last night?
What an international joke!
How could these two sworn enemies lie in the same bed!
Huo Chilin felt an inexplicable panic in his heart, as if something had slipped through his fingers and he couldn't catch it.
At this time, Bai Hansui came out of the room and saw Huo Chilin standing at the stairs. She walked over and asked, "Chilin, what's wrong with you?"
Huo Chilin came back to his senses and put away his phone, his face tense. "It's okay."
Although she only glanced at the screen, Bai Hansui saw Shen Lai's name with her sharp eyes. She had a bad feeling in her heart, so after Huo Chilin left, she also opened Weibo.
At this sight, Bai Hansui's nails almost dug into his palm.
Just now, everyone on Weibo was discussing her, but now Shen Lai has stolen the limelight.
Thinking of how Huo Chilin was distracted while looking at his phone just now, Bai Hansui had a bad feeling in her heart.
Could it be that Huo Chilin still has Chen Lai in his heart?
When Chen Lai and Pei Jingyan arrived at the restaurant, the other couples of guests had already come down, and the atmosphere was subtly solemn.
She noticed that Yan Rui and Wu Qi's expressions were not right, as if they had had an argument.
Just as Shen Lai was about to look away, he inadvertently met Huo Chilin's eyes.
Huo Chilin's face was tense, his sinister eyes stared at her, and his hands clenched into fists.
Shen Lai just took a look and turned away, as if he was looking at a stranger.
Huo Chilin felt as if his heart was being tugged at, and he felt an inexplicable sourness.
"You're up so early, I'm sure everyone's hungry, right?" Director Miao suddenly appeared with a small speaker. "So our production team has specially prepared some food for you. Feel free to cook as you please."
Everyone looked in the direction Director Miao had indicated, and sure enough, they saw that the restaurant's table was filled with a large plate of food, including all kinds of fresh meat and vegetables.
Having suffered a loss last night, everyone was less likely to be fooled today. Bai Hansui raised her hand and said, "Director Miao, are we going to have another mission?"
Director Miao: “Bingo!”
[Sure enough, Director Miao never disappoints us! ]
[I have to say Sui Sui is so smart, right? She even guessed this!]
Our Suo Suo is naturally intelligent, unlike some people who only try to be clever. They guessed that the production team would launch a surprise attack and deliberately put on makeup and waited.
【Cooked onions! 】
At this time, Director Miao was announcing the rules of the game. "This task is called the Double Kitchen Battle. Use a shared apron to tie your adjacent hands. The winner is the one who finishes breakfast with the ingredients of your choice within fifteen minutes."
"As for the unsuccessful guests, they will have to go hungry."
"So whether you can have breakfast today depends on your ability!"
Everyone came to the restaurant and started choosing ingredients. Looking at the dazzling array of ingredients in front of them, Shen Lai was a little confused.
At this moment, she caught a glimpse of Pei Jingyan beside her and asked hesitantly, "Is there anything you like to eat?"
Pei Jingyan gave her a deep look and said, "It's rare that Miss Shen cares about what I like to eat."
It was the familiar sarcasm again, but Shen Lai pretended not to hear it: "After all, it's breakfast for the two of us, I can't just take care of myself."
Moreover, Pei Jingyan is now half of her client, and there is a camera in front of them, so she has to pretend.
Pei Jingyan glanced at the ingredients in front of him and said lightly, "Egg and vegetable noodles, please."
When these words came out, Shen Lai's eyes lit up slightly, "You like to eat this too?"
"Also?" Pei Jingyan glanced at her with a look of interest, "Miss Shen, do you think you like this kind of noodles too?"
Shen Lai nodded and took out eggs and vegetables from the bag. "My nanny makes this noodle very delicious. I used to ask her to make it for me every morning."
Unfortunately, after the Shen family went bankrupt, the nanny was also fired and returned to the countryside to take care of her grandson.
Seeing Shen Lai's mood inexplicably getting lower as he spoke, Pei Jingyan folded his arms across his chest and leaned lazily on the edge of the table, "Miss Shen, what are you hinting at?"
Shen Lai looked up blankly, not understanding the meaning of this, "What?"
Pei Jingyan's eyes were a mixture of amusement and teasing. "Do you want me to help you invite your aunt back?"
Shen Lai realized it belatedly and immediately said, "No! I just said it casually."
She pretended to look at the ingredients in front of her and muttered softly, "Besides, you've helped me enough. I'm not that greedy."
She was already very grateful that Pei Jingyan helped her pay for her mother's medical expenses, so how could she possibly be so greedy and ask for anything else?
Huo Chilin was picking ingredients with Bai Hansui. He looked up inadvertently and saw Shen Lai and Pei Jingyan talking opposite him. The two were standing very close to each other, as if they were whispering something.
The photo of the two of them sleeping in each other's arms that he saw on Weibo that morning came to his mind, and Pei Jingyan couldn't help but tighten his grip on the bread.
"Chi Lin, do you want a sandwich?" Bai Hansui asked curiously.
Huo Chilin came back to his senses and saw that the bread in his hand was crumpled. He hummed stiffly, "I haven't eaten it for a long time."
Bai Hansui smiled and said, "Then let's have sandwiches today."
"Okay." Looking at Shen Lai opposite him, Huo Chilin's heart moved, and he deliberately said: "I'll make it for you later. This is my specialty!"
He deliberately raised his voice when he said this, and sure enough, Shen Lai on the opposite side looked over.
Huo Chilin sneered in his heart.
Sure enough, although Shen Lai pretended to be indifferent on the surface, she still had him in her heart.
A confident smile appeared on Huo Chilin's lips, but the next second, Shen Lai lowered his eyes and took the instant noodles in front of him.
