Chapter 96
96 The bottom line
The Guard’s face lit up when he saw Jiang SE’s face as the car window rolled down. She was pretty, but she looked a little unfamiliar.
To be able to be on duty in such a small district, one had to have good eyesight and memory. He could clearly remember that it was PEI Yi’s car and the series of numbers ‘666’ on the license plate. No one would mistake it.
“Miss Feng?”
Jiang se asked. The security guard nodded subconsciously.
He saw that there was someone in the driver’s seat. However, the lady had one hand on PEI Yi’s shoulder and the other on the car door. Her expression was solemn.
The person in the driver’s seat was blocked by her body and his face could not be seen clearly. However, she could vaguely guess that it was PEI Yi from his hair color.
The guard who had come to claim credit had a bitter expression on his face.
He guessed that he might have messed things up. It was obvious that PEI Yi had brought a girl home, but he had mentioned ‘miss Feng’. He reckoned that the girl must have been jealous.
PEI Yi’s face was blocked, and she wondered if he was angry.
Just as the guard was feeling uneasy, Jiang se asked, ”
“Which miss Feng?”
He revealed a difficult expression, not knowing whether to say or not.
The man in front of the car regretted that he had not taken a good look at the situation inside the car before he ran over. Now that Jiang se had asked him about it and PEI Yi had no intention of stopping him, the man in the security uniform could only laugh dryly.
he’s also one of the owners here and young master PEI’s neighbor. It’s not convenient for us to disclose too much about other things.
While Jiang se was talking to him, PEI Yixin, who was in his seat, was jumping so fast that it seemed as if he was about to jump out of his throat.
The faint fragrance on the young girl’s body was weakening his will that was already very weak in front of her. Her body had not even touched him, but his legs were already numb and he had lost all will.
A few strands of her hair fell on the side of his face. The cold and silky touch made him shiver. In a trance, he felt that his soul was about to fly out of his body.
He could touch her slender waist, and at this moment, the thought of being afraid of her getting angry was gone. He seemed to be bewitched and wanted to raise his hand to hug her, but his arm did not listen to him.
He could hear his own heavy heartbeat and rapid breathing, but he didn’t know if she had heard it.
Jiang SE’s attention was all on ‘Feng Nan’, so she did not notice PEI Yi’s strange behavior. When she heard the guard mention the landlord with the surname Feng, who was also PEI Yi’s neighbor, she knew that her guess was right.
In other words, Feng Nan had also come over fifteen minutes ago and was staying right next to PEI Yi.
A pair of hands trembled as he sneakily reached over and wrapped them around her thin waist. He did not dare to hug her too tightly. She was still frowning and thinking seriously, so she did not notice his small movements.
The security guard felt as if he had been granted Amnesty and hurriedly returned to his post. However, PEI Yi did not drive the car away.
He could not contain his excitement just by holding Jiang se in his arms.
In the past, he had only imagined that he would be able to hug her like this. He saw Jiang se frowning and looking pensive. He did not dare to say anything to wake her up. He was afraid that if she did, she would not even give him a chance to lie to himself.
He approached her carefully and took a deep breath. She muttered, ”
“Yi, you said Yingluo?”
As soon as she spoke, he felt his eyes warm up.
Ever since he discovered that Jiang se might be Feng Nan, no matter how close he acted to her and how eager he was to get to her, she had always kept a distance from him. She was on guard and on guard, afraid that she would give herself away.
She didn’t call him by his full name often.
But now, she subconsciously called him ‘Yi’ as she had before.
The moment Jiang se called out to him, she felt that something was off. She pursed her lips in time and realized that they were too close to each other. She propped herself up and tried to return to her seat. However, PEI Yi was afraid that the treasure in his hands would escape. He instinctively tightened his arms around her, causing her to fall into his embrace.
Her body was softer than he had imagined. It was so soft that it seemed boneless, and it was tightly embedded in his arms.
“Don’t mess around,” Jiang se patted his chest. Her fingers seemed to carry a fragrance that made PEI Yi’s heart race. He quickly pushed Jiang se back into her seat and unbuckled his seatbelt. He then opened the door and jumped out of the car.
The car door slammed shut with a bang. He was still leaning against the car, looking at his hands from time to time with a silly smile on his face.
He felt that he had been really silly in the past. Because he cared too much, he seemed to be worried about his gains and losses.
His impetuous actions earlier did not anger Jiang se. However, he realized that he had an advantage that he might not have noticed before.
Perhaps in Feng Nan’s heart, he was just like a younger brother. Similarly, in her heart, he could also be close to her to a certain extent.
So when he reached out to smooth her hair, she didn’t Dodge. Occasionally, he would touch her hand, but she was used to it.
Now that he was in her arms and could not control himself, she did not fly into a rage like PEI Yi had expected and yell at him to let go. Instead, she only asked him to ‘stop’.
He had indeed been very silly in the past. If he had been braver back then, perhaps she would have been his after chasing her for a few years now?
PEI Yi felt a little remorseful for the loss he had suffered back then, but at the same time, he was glad that she had been reborn. He had finally taken a step forward carefully, only to realize that she was not as unattainable as he had thought.
When he returned to his seat, Jiang se had already tidied up her long hair and fastened her seatbelt obediently. It was as if her loss of composure when she heard someone mention “Feng Nan” earlier had not happened.
She did not ask PEI Yi why he had alighted from the car earlier. He heaved a sigh of relief, but at the same time, he felt a little disappointed.
After the car was parked in the garage, he got out of the car first and jogged to the other side to open the door for her. He forced himself to be calm and reached out to hold her waist. She struggled for a while, but his hand went around her from behind to hold her other arm. This time, she did not reject him.
This was something that PEI Yi had never dared to think about in the past. He felt as if he had stepped on cotton and his body was as light as a feather. He did not even notice how he had walked into the elevator.
Among the properties under PEI Yi’s name, this house was not the largest, but it had a very good security system.
He reached out to unlock the elevator with his fingerprint and pressed the second floor. After the elevator door opened, the lights in the lobby automatically lit up.
There was a shoe cabinet at the door. It had been custom-made by a famous designer hired by his mother. The color scheme was beige and white, and the counter was covered with marble. He noticed that Jiang se had naturally taken her bag and placed it where Feng Nan used to place her things.
In the past, Feng Nan did not come here often, but every time he did, his gaze would always fall on her, and he would remember her every move very clearly.
