After some time, Pei Yucheng finally put on his clothes along with his spectacles.
The man sat on the couch by the windows. The mottled sunlight streamed in through the leaves on the tree and fell on his aloof face. He rolled up the sleeves of his white shirt and crossed his legs casually. Not only did the simple spectacles resting on the bridge of his nose not diminish his imposing aura, but they actually made him look even more seductive.
Lin Yan was speechless!
She felt that she wouldnât be able to calm down for the entire day.
Everyone in the entertainment industry agreed that Pei Nanxuâs looks could kill. However, the man before her could summon and eliminate souls.
Pei Yucheng sensed that she had something to say and took out a cigarette slowly. A wisp of smoke swirled around the tips of his long fingers. âWhat is on your mind?â
Lin Yan came out of her reverie and tried to organize her thoughts. Her heart was pounding as she asked cautiously, âSorry, President Pei. I think I drank too much yesterday and I canât remember anythingâŚ
I would like to ask what happened. Why did I wake up in your house this morning?â
âYou canât rememberâŚâ Pei Yuchengâs thin lips curled up unconsciously, and there was a fleeting gleam in his eyes.
Then, he spoke in an exceedingly deep and masculine voice that sounded a little hoarse. âWhy? Are you pretending to have amnesia after sleeping with me?â
Lin Yan was speechlessâŚ
âPlonk!â Her legs turned to jelly and she slipped off the bed. As she fell, her knees pressed against the floor in fear.
How was it possible?
SheâŚ
How could she have the audacity?
Lin Yan scrambled to her feet and explained frantically. âHow is that possible? Mr. Pei, I reckon that there must have been a misunderstanding between us. Even if I had borrowed courage from you, I wouldnât have dared to disrespect youâŚâ
Pei Yucheng held a cigarette in between his long fingers as he glanced at her lazily. âAlthough it was unsuccessful, you are already being disrespectful.â
Lin Yan was speechlessâŚ
Already⌠Already disrespectfulâŚ
To what extent had she been disrespectful?
Could anyone save her right now?
Pei Yucheng stole a glance at Lin Yan, who had clammed up. âWhat else do you have to say?â
Lin Yan made a final attempt. âYes! Mr. Pei, I have a really important question. Since you said that⌠I⌠I was already disrespectful⌠How did I⌠succeed?â
If she was capable of taking advantage of Pei Yucheng, why hadnât she died instead?
Pei Yucheng used his hand to support his forehead while his other hand continued to hold the cigarette. His eyebrows were slightly raised as he asked, âAre you hoping⌠that I can help you recollect?â
âCough, coughâŚâ Lin Yan had turned stark white. âNo! No need! I didnât⌠mean it that way!â
Lin Yan was forced to abandon that question.
What should she do?
Lin Yan felt anxious and panicky as she carefully asked, âMr. Pei⌠if I told you⌠that I donât remember anything⌠Would you believe me?â
As he noticed how scared the girl looked, Pei Yucheng managed a faint smile. âI certainly believe you.â
He finally believed her!
Lin Yanâs eyes sparkled and she seemed to choke with emotion. Then, Pei Yucheng opened his mouth and said, âAfter all, if a woman wished to ditch a man after using him, what sort of absurd excuse wouldnât she conjure?â
Lin Yan was speechlessâŚ
Damn it!
She really hadnât!
It was too frightening to even think of ditching Pei Yucheng.
Alcohol had caused her all this trouble!
Hadnât she suffered a great loss in this case?
How could she assume responsibility for this if she had no recollection of the entire process whatsoever?
