Chapter 49 Men's Underwear Falls Out
Shen Lai's body stiffened, and then his cheeks quickly turned red.
When did Pei Jingyan come up?
Could he have heard what she said to Huo Chilin?
Seeing that he was discovered, Pei Jingyan walked up the stairs slowly. When Huo Chilin saw him, a look of vigilance immediately appeared in his eyes.
Pei Jingyan didn't even look at him, his eyes were always fixed on Chen Lai.
Shen Lai was a little embarrassed. There was nothing more humiliating than being caught by the person involved. He pretended to be calm and said, "Have you finished your call?"
Pei Jingyan was very frugal with words and just hummed without any extra words.
Chen Lai inexplicably had the illusion that she was having an affair with her ex and was discovered by her current boyfriend, even though she and Pei Jingyan were clearly just a fake couple.
Shen Lai covered his lips and coughed lightly, "Then let's go back to the room. I just need to go upstairs."
Pei Jingyan nodded casually and finally looked at Huo Chilin beside him, as if he had just noticed him at this moment.
"What a coincidence, Mr. Huo is here too?"
As soon as their eyes met, there seemed to be a smell of gunpowder in the air.
Huo Chilin's breathing was slightly heavy. "I have something to ask Shen Lai."
Pei Jingyan raised his eyebrows. "Is it about your girlfriend falsely accusing my wife on the show?"
The word "girlfriend" sounded a bit harsh. For the first time, Huo Chilin did not admit it directly. For some reason, he did not want to lose face in front of Pei Jingyan.
Huo Chilin clenched his fists at his side, "This is a matter between me and Shen Lai, it has nothing to do with you."
Pei Jingyan smiled, "She is mine, how can she have nothing to do with me?"
The three words "my people" made Shen Lai's heart skip a beat.
Huo Chilin in front of him looked even uglier.
"Master Huo, you don't need to worry about my wife's affairs. I will naturally take good care of her." Pei Jingyan said leisurely: "If Master Huo has the time to spare, he might as well take care of his own people and do less stupid and bad things."
As if provoking, Pei Jingyan put his arm around Chen Lai's waist.
Huo Chilin's eyes turned red, and what hurt him even more was that Chen Lai didn't push Pei Jingyan away.
It was as if this had been done many times before.
After saying that, Pei Jingyan didn't even look at Huo Chilin, and went upstairs with Chen Lai in his arms.
When Huo Chilin disappeared from his sight, Shen Lai couldn't help but lower his head and whispered, "Is it okay?"
Pei Jingyan followed her gaze and looked at his hand around her waist, then slowly let go.
The atmosphere was inexplicably awkward, and Shen Lai couldn't help but ask, "When did you come up just now?"
Pei Jingyan glanced at her sideways when he heard that, a playful smile on his lips, "It started from the moment you called me 'husband'."
The syllables of the word "husband" were deliberately emphasized.
Shen Lai almost choked on his saliva, and his snow-white ears, half hidden under his long hair, turned shamefully red.
Sure enough, Pei Jingyan heard it.
She was a little embarrassed and subconsciously explained: "I said that on purpose in front of Huo Chilin."
Pei Jingyan said casually, "I didn't say anything, why are you so nervous?"
Shen Lai didn't know why he was nervous. From an outsider's perspective, the two were indeed husband and wife, and they even had a marriage certificate.
Shen Lai's expression was unnatural. "I'm just worried that you might misunderstand."
Pei Jingyan glanced at her calmly and asked, "What could I have misunderstood?"
Chen Lai choked. She couldn't say why she was worried that Pei Jingyan would misunderstand her. They both knew their relationship very well, and calling each other husband and wife was just for outsiders to hear.
For some reason, a feeling of loss suddenly flashed through Shen Lai's heart.
When she came to her senses, she shook her head vigorously.
They are just acting, don't take it seriously.
After returning to the room, Pei Jingyan went to the bathroom to take a shower first. Chen Lai had nothing to do, so he swung on the swing in the yard.
The program crew built a pergola on the balcony. She sat on it leisurely, feeling the cool night breeze, feeling so comfortable.
At this moment, Shen Lai received a strange message: If you change your mind, please contact me anytime.
She frowned.
This extremely confident tone was obviously coming from Huo Chilin.
Shen Lai simply couldn't understand Huo Chilin's train of thought. He couldn't wait to break up with her when he saw that the Shen family was in trouble. Now that she was "married" to Pei Jingyan, he took the initiative to get close to her.
Is Huo Chilin mentally ill?
Chen Lai ignored it, deleted the message directly, and blocked the number at the same time.
Huo Chilin waited for a long time but didn't get a reply from Shen Lai. He called again and was blocked as expected.
However, he can now look at it calmly.
This at least shows that Shen Lai still has him in her heart, otherwise she would just ignore him. Why block him?
Thinking of this, Huo Chilin's complexion became much better.
At this time, he saw the text message from Bai Hansui, asking him where he was and saying that she wanted to talk to him.
Huo Chilin couldn't help but think of Bai Hansui's attempt to shift the blame on the show just now. His brows, which had just relaxed, frowned again. He replied, "I have something to do tonight, you go to bed first," and sent the text message.
Then he called his assistant and said, "Go and help me find the group of people who used to get along well with Shen Lai, and ask them to help testify that Shen Lai didn't bully Bai Hansui."
The assistant on the other end of the phone paused, then said stubbornly, "Mr. Huo, are you talking about finding someone to help Miss Shen testify that Miss Bai lied?"
Chi Lin was a little displeased with his questioning, "Just do as I say."
The assistant didn't dare to say anything else. He agreed and went to do it.
Half an hour later, Pei Jingyan came out of the bathroom. He was drying his hair and saw that there was no one in the room. There seemed to be some rustling noises in the yard.
When he came to the balcony, he saw Shen Lai swinging on the trellis, pushing his feet from time to time to swing himself up.
Her soft hair was blown by the breeze, revealing her palm-sized goose egg. Her skin was as white as porcelain, and it looked even more beautiful in the night. Her skirt swayed in the wind, sparkling like the water in a lake.
Pei Jingyan's eyes became deep, seemingly longer than the night behind him.
As Shen Lai was swinging, she suddenly saw a person in front of her, who almost scared her.
Pei Jingyan was seen leaning leisurely against the door frame, his bathrobe belt loosely tied around his waist, his wet hair scattered in front of his forehead, looking less fierce and unapproachable than usual.
Shen Lai touched his chest and asked, "Why are you walking without making any sound?"
Just like a ghost.
Pei Jingyan crossed his arms and asked, "Didn't you say you would help me wash the clothes?"
Shen Lai finally realized that she had promised to help Pei Jingyan wash clothes until the end of the variety show.
She gritted her teeth and said, "I didn't forget. I'll help you wash it later."
Pei Jingyan's eyes revealed a wanton and arrogant look. "Wash it clean. I'll check it later."
Shen Lai took a deep breath and swallowed the dirty words with great effort, "I promise it will be cleaner than your face."
After saying that, she got off the swing, and when she passed by Pei Jingyan, she deliberately bumped his shoulder, snorted coldly, and went into the bathroom with her clothes in a careless manner.
After taking a comfortable bath, Shen Lai put on a bathrobe and began to wash their clothes.
Pei Jingyan placed all her changed clothes in the dirty clothes basket. She bent down to pick them up and suddenly something fell out of her pants.
Shen Lai looked down and saw a pair of men's underwear.
