Cheng Xi was in a confused mood.
In fact, she was just a little skeptical before, not very sure.
Until tonight, when Lu Chongli took Ling Zheng away, the seeds of doubt grew stronger and stronger like grass and trees.
"Cheng Xi..."
Pei Yanzhou was at a loss and held her hand tightly.
"Don't talk." Cheng Xi pushed him away and covered his head.
Because of drinking, her head was buzzing and her chest was feeling tight.
"I went to take a shower."
Cheng Xi turned around and took out her pajamas from the cloakroom and went to the bathroom outside.
Pei Yanzhou was lying on the bed, his face full of bitterness.
He was already very cautious, but Cheng Xi was too smart to be fooled at all.
...
Under the shower.
Cheng Xi let the hot water pour on her head.
The whole person seemed to be much more awake.
After blow-drying his hair, Pei Yanzhou didn't sleep either. He sat quietly on the edge of the bed, shrugging his head as if he had done something wrong.
But Cheng Xi doesn't think he is honest at all now.
Even though his brain is so damaged, he can still be so cunning. When he gets better, he starts plotting against others. He is indeed a shrewd businessman.
"You don't want to drive me back so late, my parents are asleep." Pei Yanzhou raised her long and thick eyelashes, "Chongli is probably accompanying Ling Zheng, so I won't let me disturb other people's good things. "
"Don't you still have an assistant?"
"The assistant is not a robot. He is asleep at this point." Pei Yanzhou replied shamelessly.
Cheng Xi stood still in front of him.
The heating is on, but it's not cold.
Cheng Xi came out of the shower wearing only a thin long cotton pajamas. It could be seen that she was wearing nothing underneath. Her soft and smooth hair fell on her shoulders. Her small face was so innocent that it made people want to commit crimes.
Pei Yanzhou took a deep breath, but at this time he didn't dare to move at all.
"...go to sleep."
Cheng Xi looked at him intently for a while, then lifted the quilt and asked, "Would you like me to help you lie down?"
Pei Yanzhou's eyes flashed with secret joy, "Yes."
Cheng Xi skillfully held his arms and waist, moved him up, and gently helped him lie down.
It was impossible to leave him sleeping alone in the bed at night, and it would be inconvenient to go to the bathroom.
Cheng Xi simply slept on the other side of the bed.
During this time, the two slept in the same bed every day.
But the mood is completely different.
Cheng Xi turned off the light, and Pei Yanzhou looked at the ceiling and whispered, "Cheng Xi, you still like me, right? During this time, you stayed with me, even though you were pretending to be my girlfriend, but if you don't have any love for me, How can you be willing to lie on the same bed with me and let me kiss you and hold you if you have no feelings at all?"
"I did it because you saved me. You were kind to me, okay?" Cheng Xi turned over angrily.
"Yeah."
Pei Yanzhou tightened his hand on his lower abdomen and said, "In that case, give me another chance to repay me for saving my life."
There was silence in the darkness for a while, and Cheng Xi said sarcastically, "Others do good deeds without leaving their names behind, and show favors without repaying them. How can anyone like you go up a pole to ask for favors?"
Pei Yanzhou said calmly: "After all, I was raised by the Mu family, so I always look a bit like them."
Cheng Xi: "..."
Pei Yanzhou chuckled again, "Besides, you have seen a few people who truly show kindness without repaying it. I am not a saint."
Cheng Xi said lightly, "Sorry, if you ask for a favor from me, I won't necessarily give it to you. After all, I'm not you. I will repay the favor with selfless devotion without any regrets. I am a thick-skinned, selfish person who affects everything. When I feel comfortable, I won’t care about any favors.”
Pei Yanzhou was silent.
He knew very well that Cheng Xi was not that kind of person.
Otherwise she wouldn't have stayed to take care of him for more than a month, let alone allow her family to pretend to be his girlfriend.
