Endless Fall

Chapter 90 - 90 He Intruded on Her Dream Again



90 He Intruded on Her Dream Again

“I didn’t hear it clearly.” Pei Zhi only knew that the person who called her was crying. “Is she Yanshen’s suitor?”

“Yes.” Lin Jiao summarized the conversation.

She looked at his side profile. “Do you think she really likes Brother Yanshen or does she want to use him to climb up the social ladder?”

“That depends.”

!!

Pei Zhi did not want to generalize people. “You’ll only know when you see her.”

“That’s true.” It was indeed impossible to judge a person’s feelings and thoughts with just a few words.

Lin Jiao waited for the car to stop at the entrance of the market and followed him in to buy groceries.

The mottled light cast by the tree shadows elongated as they walked.

When the afterglow and moonlight changed shifts, a cold light shone on their smiles through the curtains.

“Jiaojiao, are you free on Saturday?” Pei Zhi asked her before leaving.

“I am.”

“Then do you want to come?”

“With Brother Yanshen and the others?” Lin Jiao sent him to the entrance and looked up into his eyes.

“Yes.” Pei Zhi suddenly felt a little nervous.

He looked away, placed his palm on the doorknob, and pressed it down. “I’ll get going first.”

Lin Jiao watched him leave.

She went into the bathroom to wash up. After receiving his WeChat message, saying that he had arrived home, she hugged the blanket and fell asleep.

Perhaps because it had been too long since she last dreamed, the dream she had that night was wilder than previous ones.

“Jiaojiao.” The man in the CEO’s office saw her walking over and reached out to pull her into his arms.

He rubbed her waist, his eyes dark and slightly devilish. “Do you miss me?”

“Yes.” She grabbed his collar and pulled him forward, kissing him on the chin.

Her teasing action made him want to seal her lips and taste her body.

A taste even sweeter than candy’s spread in her mouth. She collapsed into his arms and fumbled for the buttons of his shirt with her fingertips.

“Don’t be naughty.” He seemed to have seen through her intentions and raised his chin at the door.

“Say that again?”

“Let’s continue when we get back home, be good.”

She did not want to be good.

She put one hand on his neck and whispered into his ear, “Do you not love me anymore?”

“Why would I not love you?”

“Then why did you push me away?”

He held the hand that was groping all over his body, his eyes even darker than before.

He said in a voice deeper than the ocean, “Be good.”

“No.” She was still causing trouble like a brat who would not stop until she was tortured.

He couldn’t control himself anymore.

He swept everything on the desk to the floor and lifted her up on it.

What followed that was non-stop passionate kissing.

She held the tie she had given him as a gift and gradually felt her body go numb and her legs go weak.

“Hubby…”

A strong sense of joy overwhelmed her.

However, Lin Jiao was woken up by her own voice.

She took a few deep breaths and hammered the bed in embarrassment.

“Dirty-minded!” She scolded herself as she rolled on the bed, no longer sleepy.

It was not until the alarm rang at eight that she left the terrifying bed with dark circles under her eyes.

When she got into the car, Pei Zhi reached out to touch her eyes.

He raised an eyebrow and smiled. “Dreamt again?”

As soon as his voice entered her ears, Lin Jiao remembered the vivid dream again. “No.”

Seeing that she was avoiding eye contact and blushing, Pei Zhi was stunned.

He observed her expression and concluded that the dream this time was related to him. However, he could not guess what he had done to her in the dream.

“Stop looking at me. Hurry up and drive.” Lin Jiao glared at him and lowered her head to eat the breakfast he had bought.

Pei Zhi wanted to laugh but did not. He stepped on the accelerator as he was told.

In order not to make her feel uncomfortable, he changed the topic. “My dad wants us to go to his place.”

“What’s wrong?”

“He probably wants to ask about your grandfather.”

Lin Jiao puffed up her cheeks. “What about specifically?”

“I’m not sure.” He waited for the light to turn green and steered left. “I heard him say they haven’t seen each other in fifteen years.”

“That long?”

“Yes, I think there’s a story.”

Lin Jiao pondered for a moment. “Then go over this weekend.” She was quite interested in hearing their story.

“Alright.” Pei Zhi drove the car into the parking lot.

They chatted all the way to the elevator. When the door opened, they tacitly stopped talking.

Before leaving, Lin Jiao exchanged glances with him and walked slowly towards the planning department.

She sat at her desk to complete the new proposal. When it was almost noon, a WeChat message popped up.

Yan Jingshun: “I happen to be near Sheng Heng Corp. Shall we eat together? /Picture.”

Seeing that he had sent a photo of the lounge in Sheng Heng, Lin Jiao did not even have the chance to refuse.

She sent Pei Yilan a WeChat message and went downstairs to see him.

“Lin Jiao.” A clear voice came from the right.

She turned around and saw a handsome man in a black coat running in her direction.

Yan Jingshun looked very good. With his outgoing personality and mature temperament, it was easy for others to like him.

He smiled and looked at her face, a look of surprise flashing across his face. “There’s a Japanese restaurant nearby. Let’s go over and try it?”

“You made a reservation?”

“Yes.”

Why did he have to ask her if he already made a reservation?

Lin Jiao had no choice but to follow him.

She rarely spoke to strangers, but Yan Jingshun knew how to find a topic to talk about. “Have you been working at Sheng Heng for a long time?”

“Less than three months.”

“How do you feel?”

“Not bad.” Lin Jiao did not want to keep answering. She asked him, “How many years have you been abroad?”

“About four years.”

“Are you used to living there?”

“Not really.” Yan Jingshun put his hands in his pockets and kept a distance from her. “I missed home a lot.”

“It’s normal to miss home.” Lin Jiao listened to him talk about life abroad as she walked towards the Japanese restaurant.

Fortunately, the journey was not long. Otherwise, she would be bored to death.

“Take a look at the menu.” After Yan Jingshun sat down opposite her, he handed her one of the menus.

Lin Jiao was not interested in Japanese cuisine.

However, she had no choice but to turn to the first page and slowly read on.

“I want—”

“Help us get two bottles of soda.”

Yan Jingshun looked up at the waiter. “Also foie gras caviar, salmon sashimi, sea urchin, and salt-roasted ox tongue.”

Lin Jiao silently closed the menu.

She picked up the glass by the table and took two sips of lemonade water.

“Lin Jiao, what else do you want to eat?”

“Nothing.”

“Serve these first.” Yan Jingshun handed the menu to the waiter and asked, “Have you been to this restaurant before?”

Lin Jiao shook her head. “This is the first time.”
