Chapter 55: Sacrifice and Act with Me
Shen Lai paused, she quietly raised her head and looked over Pei Jingyan's shoulder, and sure enough, she saw a servant pretending to clean and looking furtively at the door.
Shen Lai was a little confused, and lay back down on Pei Jingyan, whispering, "What is she doing?"
Pei Jingyan put one hand on Shen Lai, his voice lazily filled with sleep, "I guess he was sent by my parents to monitor us."
Shen Lai quickly realized that Pei Jingyan's parents probably didn't believe that they were truly in love, so they sent people to monitor them.
She lowered her voice and said, "What should we do now? Just hold each other like this?"
Chen Lai had just woken up and had not had time to wash up. Her skin was as delicate as a porcelain doll, and her flawless face was white and tender. At this moment, her eyes, which were still sleepy, were looking at Pei Jingyan clearly.
Pei Jingyan's eyes gradually darkened, reflecting Shen Lai's fair and pink face. "It seems that only Miss Shen can sacrifice herself and play a play with me."
Before Shen Lai could react to what he meant, Pei Jingyan suddenly supported himself on the headboard and sat up. As he bent down, his upper body suddenly covered Shen Lai's face, and he was so close to Shen Lai's face that he was caught off guard.
Just a little bit more and their lips touched.
Chen Lai instantly opened his eyes wide, held his breath, and stared at Pei Jingyan without blinking.
To outsiders, the two looked like they were kissing each other.
The servant blushed and ran away with the feather duster.
The air seemed to freeze at this moment. The distance between the two was less than one centimeter. As long as Pei Jingyan lowered his head again, they would kiss each other.
Pei Jingyan stared into Shen Lai's eyes. His deep pupils were so profound that for a moment they seemed to be able to suck people in.
Shen Lai's whole body was stiff and his heart was beating fast.
The faint cool scent of pine lingered at the tip of her nose. She didn't know whether the servant had left or not, so she didn't dare to act rashly.
The two looked at each other, and the atmosphere was inexplicably awkward. Shen Lai couldn't help but think of what happened last night and said hesitantly, "Are you still angry?"
Pei Jingyan asked knowingly, "What are you angry about?"
Shen Lai pursed his lips.
Of course, she thought, it was last night.
"Why do you get so angry every time you talk about divorce?" Shen Lai couldn't help but complain, "I don't think I've provoked you, have I?"
Pei Jingyan had no expression on his face. "I don't like you talking about divorce."
Shen Lai frowned slightly, "Why?"
Pei Jingyan lowered his eyes to look at her, "Because I think you are an ungrateful person."
Chen Lai complained in her heart, she cooperated with Pei Jingyan to play the role of husband and wife well, how could she be ungrateful.
"Chen Lai, are you so eager to divorce me?" Pei Jingyan suddenly spoke.
Shen Lai paused, and seeing Pei Jingyan staring at her, she turned away unnaturally, "I just said it casually, and we are going to get divorced in the future, aren't we?"
Pei Jingyan suddenly said, "What if we don't divorce?"
Shen Lai's body stiffened, and he looked up at Pei Jingyan, "What do you mean?"
Seeing Shen Lai's somewhat unbelievable expression, Pei Jingyan smiled wryly, "Maybe I'll regret it later and suddenly don't want to divorce you anymore."
Shen Lai's throat rolled. She didn't believe that Pei Jingyan would refuse to divorce.
At this moment, Shen Lai noticed that the servant had left without knowing when. She quickly pushed Pei Jingyan's chest away with her hand and explained in a way that made the matter even more obvious: "She's gone."
Pei Jingyan looked back and found that there was no one there.
He then pulled away and lazily lay back on the bed, "Looks like my parents won't be suspicious anymore now."
Shen Lai was still thinking about what happened just now, her face was hot, "Then I'll go wash up first."
After saying that, she quickly got out of bed and went into the bathroom as fast as she could.
After locking the door from the inside, Shen Lai leaned against it and covered his chest with his hands.
Why is her heart beating so fast?
Chen Lai couldn't help but blame Pei Jingyan. It must be because the other party was too close to her that made her so nervous.
Downstairs, in the living room.
"Are you serious? Did they really kiss?"
Yin Ningjing asked half-doubtfully.
The servant said: "It's true, I saw with my own eyes that Master Pei pressed Miss Shen down on the bed and kissed her fiercely."
Yin Ningjing's face was solemn. Was she really overthinking it?
Pei Kaifeng said, "Do you believe it now? I've already told you that your son is not a brainless person. How could he be easily deceived?"
Although Yin Ningjing always felt that something was wrong, the servants saw it with their own eyes, so it seemed that the two were really together.
Although she felt that Shen Lai was not worthy of her son, they already had a child, so it was useless for her to object.
Not long after, Pei Jingyan and Shen Lai came down from upstairs. The latter's face was a little red and his lips were wet. It was obvious that he had done something in the room.
Yin Ningjing looked at Shen Lai's expression and became more certain that what the servant had just said was true.
After breakfast, Pei Jingyan and Shen Lai left the manor.
The two had just returned to the villa and Shen Lai had just gotten out of the car when a gentle voice suddenly sounded behind him, "Lai Lai."
Upon hearing this, Shen Lai turned around and saw Bai Hansui appear not far away. Her face was pale and she looked as if she would fall down if the wind blew.
Shen Lai frowned.
Why did Bai Hansui come here at this time?
While I was wondering, Bai Hansui had already come to me. She looked like she hadn't slept all night. Her eyes were bloodshot and she had dark circles under them. She was not wearing any makeup, so she looked extremely haggard.
At this time, Shen Lai noticed that there were several people holding cameras following Bai Hansui.
Shen Lai's eyebrows moved, and his tone was cold, "Is there something wrong?"
Bai Hansui's eyes turned red, "Lai Lai, I was wrong about what happened before. I shouldn't have framed you."
Shen Lai remained calm, "Are you here today to apologize to me?"
Bai Hansui bit her lower lip and nodded sincerely, "I didn't mean it. I just didn't know what to do. I couldn't think straight at the moment, so I falsely accused you."
"I've realized my mistake. Please forgive me this time, okay?"
Chen Lai laughed, "Miss Bai, you think you can get away with just an apology. Aren't you thinking too much? If no one spoke up for me at the time, I would be the one being cyberbullied now, right?"
Bai Hansui bit her lower lip tightly and looked at Shen Lai's indifferent face. She seemed to have made up her mind. She suddenly bent her knees and knelt on the ground.
Shen Lai frowned slightly, "What are you doing?"
Bai Hansui's eyes turned red, and his voice choked with sobs, "Lai Lai, as long as you can forgive me, I can do anything. Please let me go this time."
[Holy crap! Bai Hansui actually knelt down and admitted her mistake!]
Although Bai Hansui was wrong to steal someone else's boyfriend, she has already knelt down and admitted her mistake. So, why don't you all stop harping on her?
[Yes, she must have truly changed.]
[Which St. Mary's sanctuary did the person above escape from? I'll find someone to cyberbully you and then kneel down to admit my mistake. I hope you can forgive me.]
There was an endless debate about this in the live broadcast room for a while, but after this incident, many people's balance tilted towards Bai Hansui's side.
Shen Lai thought to herself that Bai Hansui's trick was really good. He knelt down while apologizing, pretending to be pitiful and helpless. If she still didn't forgive Bai Hansui, it would be her fault.
At this moment, a lazy, low voice sounded behind him.
"It seems the servants are getting lazy. They didn't even bother to clean up this huge pile of garbage."
