Endless Fall

193 Mrs. Pei Became a Cat

“Have you seen his parents?” At the mention of home, Lin Jiao asked about Jiang Ye’s family.

“No.”

“He never mentioned them to you?”

Pei Yilan’s gaze landed on his back.

Even through a thick sweater, she could accurately find the location of the two whip marks.

“He didn’t have a good life in the past.” She suppressed the pain in her eyes and drank the wine. “There’s no need to mention them.”

Lin Jiao and Qian Yue tacitly changed the topic.

“It’s more appropriate to have a child before the age of 30.” Qian Yue touched Pei Yilan’s stomach. “I’m just waiting to be your daughter’s godmother.”

Her action was quite misleading.

Chu Yuzhou happened to see it when he came over to get the wine. He raised his voice in shock. “Pei Yilan, you’re pregnant?!”

Jiang Ye was shocked by his voice.

He pushed away the dice and turned around. Seeing that Qian Yue’s hand was still on Pei Yilan’s stomach, he asked worriedly, “Yilan, are you feeling unwell?”

He did not think that she was pregnant.

Firstly, it was because they had not slept together. Secondly, he was certain that she would not cheat on him.

Pei Yilan shook her head. “We’re joking.” She glared at Chu Yuzhou. “Don’t talk nonsense!”

“What kind of a joke? Let me hear it.”

“Go and play your dice.”

Before Chu Yuzhou could say anything else, Zhou Yanshen pulled him back to his seat.

The clock pointed to eight. Pei Zhi and Qu Shao, who had returned, arrived at Bo Yu Club.

In order to celebrate Jiang Ye’s end of filming, they first drank two glasses before finding seats to sit down and join the group game.

“Have you had dinner?” Lin Jiao whispered into his ear as she shook the dice.

She had just drunk peach-flavored fruit wine, and her breath carried a fresh and sweet fragrance.

Pei Zhi stared at her lips. “Yes.”

He leaned to the left and casually placed his long legs on the chair.

Perhaps because they were discussing business, he was dressed more formally today. His black suit was straight and there were almost no creases.

Lin Jiao’s gaze moved down from his collar to his sleeves. “Why aren’t you wearing the black and gold pair?”

“It was scratched by a cat.”

“What cat?”

“The cat Mrs. Pei transformed into.” Pei Zhi touched her earlobe and said in a sexy voice.

His touch was like a feather brushing past her skin, making her feel itchy.

“You’re not married. How can you have a wife?” She pushed his shoulder away and looked at the cufflinks. “I’ll compensate you with a new pair next time.”

“I don’t want cufflinks.”

“Then what do you want?”

“You.” Pei Zhi put his arm around her waist and said, “How about giving yourself to me as a compensation, Mrs. Pei?”

Lin Jiao turned her head away. “In your dreams.” She pretended to be calm and held the dice cup to play with them. “Don’t touch my waist.”

“I’m only touching your clothes.”

“If you continue talking nonsense, you’ll go back to Red Maple Forest to sleep tonight.”

She even threatened him.

Pei Zhi tightened his grip on her, but he did not dare to say anything else.

Lin Jiao, who was used to him being shameless, let him be. Or rather, she had tacitly agreed to let him be intimate with her from the beginning.

“You lost.” Zhou Yanshen opened the dice cup and glanced at the arrogant Chu Yuzhou. “The loser drinks three glasses.”

“No wonder I feel thirsty.”

“Can you be more shameless?”

“Why is feeling thirsty a shameless thing?” Chu Yuzhou raised his chin, looking even more smug than a winner.

“Then how about five glasses?”

“Sure.”

“I’ll pour it.” Shen Yi couldn’t stand him being smug anymore.

He took out two empty wine glasses from under the table and filled them up before placing them in front of Chu Yuzhou.

Chu Yuzhou finished three glasses in a row, looking even more arrogant than before. “I’ll make you cry when I come back.”

He opened the door under everyone’s gaze and swaggered out.

Perhaps because his alcohol tolerance was really good tonight, when he came out of the washroom, he even started humming.

Pa—

A loud sound interrupted his humming.

In a private room near the garden, a man’s angry voice sounded. “Stupid b*tch, why are you pretending to be high and noble?”

...

Tang Ni, who was being stared at by countless pairs of eyes, had red eyes, but she did not bend down.

She took half a step back from the glass shards scattered at her feet. “I’m sorry, Bo Yu doesn’t provide special services.”

“I’m just asking you to drink a few glasses. Don’t you understand?”

“She’s wearing an artificial cochlea.” The woman beside him said sarcastically, “Maybe she really didn’t understand you.”

Someone suggested that he speak into the microphone. He grabbed the microphone and shouted into it.

He sized up Tang Ni greedily, all his nasty thoughts obvious. “Deaf, come and have a drink with me.”

Tang Ni clenched her fists.

She had heard harsh words since she was young and thought that she was immune to it, but she wasn’t as strong as she thought..

She held back her tears and took a deep breath to calm herself down. “I’m just a waiter. I don’t drink with customers.”

“You drink with me when I ask you to!” He gave the short man on the right a look. “Get her over.”

“Try touching her.” The door was kicked open and a figure wrapped in light entered the room.

...

Tang Ni, who was about to run, was stunned on the spot.

She looked at that unfamiliar face. Before she could react, he grabbed her wrist and pulled her behind him.

Chu Yuzhou said with a dark expression, “Bo Yu doesn’t welcome trash like you. Get lost immediately!”

“Who the f*ck do you think you are?”

“I’m your father!”

The man picked up the wine bottle and rushed up, but before he could get close to Chu Yuzhou, he was pressed to the ground by the four bodyguards who rushed into the private room.

The club manager ran in and saw the wine bottle in that man’s hand. He was so frightened that he broke out in cold sweat. “Boss, are you alright?”

“No.” Chu Yuzhou glanced at the frightened man disdainfully. “Beat him up and throw him out.”

With that, he walked out. Hearing the sound of that man shouting in pain, Chu Yuzhou felt extremely satisfied.

“B-boss.” Tang Ni, who was still being held by him, stared at the hand with a red face. “Where are you taking me?”

When her gentle voice entered his ears, Chu Yuzhou remembered that he had brought her out.

He turned around, his eyes reflecting that face.

Tang Ni had a good-girl face. The corners of her eyes were slightly lowered, making her look pitiful and innocent.

She was very beautiful, so beautiful that even if she was wearing a waiter’s dress, it did not diminish her beauty at all.

“I’m sorry.” Chu Yuzhou retracted his hand, surprise flashing across his eyes. “Are you new here at Bo Yu Club?”

“Yes, I just started work the day before yesterday.” She felt the lingering warmth on her wrist and her heart raced. She was a little nervous.

“You’re not suited to be a waitress.”

“What?”

“I mean you’re easily bullied.” Especially that face. It was too attractive.
