Chapter 18: Cover-up
The room was very dim, but Qiao Zhimo could still see Pei Shiyan's gaze staring at her, as if he wanted to see her through.
"What do you mean by the question you asked me last night?" He spoke with a cigarette in his mouth, and his voice was a little blurry, like a mountain hidden behind the clouds, which made it difficult to see.
Last night, it was only the night and the earpiece that amplified the sensory cells, and the illusion was generated, which caused that unexpected question. Now, she can't blur the lines anymore.
So, she pretended not to hear clearly: "What? ”
Pei Shiyan sighed, let go of her hand and took the cigarette, and repeated it again clearly.
Qiao Zhimo pondered for a while, and pretended to remember: "Hey, I was watching the online drama I used to play, so I asked casually." ”
The force that pinched her jaw suddenly became a little heavier, and Pei Shiyan came up and said in a gloomy tone: "You'd better not lie." ”
"I've always been honest." As soon as Qiao Zhimo finished speaking, her heart was empty, because she not only deceived Pei Shiyan, but also Jiang Yufeng.
Sure enough, in the next second, Pei Shiyan let out a "heh", which was extremely sarcastic.
In the living room, everyone has arrived, but Qiao Zhimo has not come back yet. Jiang Yufeng glanced at the time, got up and walked in the direction of the bathroom.
The sound of pacing was steady but abrupt, like an empty sound in a silent alley, which made Qiao Zhimo's mind instantly pull up an alarm.
"Zhimo?" Jiang Yufeng raised his hand and knocked on the bathroom door, "Are you inside?" ”
The sound was close at hand, the alarm sounded in the sky, and Qiao Zhimo couldn't help but hold his breath, stiffening like a piece of wood.
Pei Shiyan lowered his eyes and looked at her, the mocking arc of his lips fell, one hand wrapped around her waist, touched the door lock, and clicked and twisted.
This subtle voice would not reach Jiang Yufeng's ears, and he kept a gentlemanly demeanor and knocked on the door three times before saying, "I'm in." ”
The door was not far from the door, and his voice seemed to fall behind her. And she was being pressed by Pei Shiyan, and her jaw and waist and abdomen were pressed between the man and the door panel, forming the appearance of a circle territory.
They have similar body temperatures and skin to skin, just like Jack and Ruth who cheated on Carl behind Carl's back in "Titanic".
The feeling made her panic unpleasant, and indescribable emotions welled up, and she put her hands on his shoulders in an attempt to break free.
"Don't worry, he won't be able to get in." Pei Shiyan whispered in her ear, like soothing a pet who had just changed to a new environment and was irritable and active.
Qiao Zhimo gritted his teeth and asked, "What is Director Pei doing now?" ”
"Can't you see it?" He chuckled, rubbed his fingers against her lips, and said ambiguously, "Of course I'm helping you cover up." ”
When a person is under high stress, all organs become very sensitive. She could hear the corridor across the door, and Jiang Yufeng was talking to himself in confusion after he didn't find her, and the footsteps of turning towards the stairs.
Click, similar to the frequency of the fingertips that crossed the line and played with the tip of her tongue, disturbed her temples to throb.
He clearly wanted to see her jokes!
The pent-up emotions need to find an outlet. So, she opened her mouth and bit the knuckle of his index finger.
Pei Shiyan hissed and withdrew the force that was clamping on her.
Qiao Zhimo took the opportunity to bend down and walked behind him, she wiped her lips and said, "There is nothing to cover up between us, I hope Director Pei will not make such an overstep next time." ”
"Oh?" Pei Shiyan rubbed his knuckles and turned to look at her, "Really?" ”
Qiao Zhimo's scalp was numb, and he said recklessly: "Yes." ”
"Then it's needed now."
His tone was light, but his movements were heavy, and he pinched the back of her neck with one hand, leaned down, and bit her lip.
Pay somebody back in the same coin.
