C110

Downstairs, Chi Yufeng had just finished a game. He put down his phone, changed his position, and stretched.

He raised his eyes and saw Gong Yan slowly walking down the stairs.

He raised his eyebrows. "That fast?"

Gong Yan cast a sidelong glance at him, then calmly sat down on the sofa opposite him, replying with a bland expression, "Hurry up."

"What else could it be? An explanation. I saw Miss Pei enter with a confused face. You can't possibly have pushed her into this without giving her a clear explanation of your purpose, right?"

Gong Yan's expression froze.

Seeing this, Chi Yufeng clicked his tongue. It seemed like he had guessed correctly.

He laughed and teased, "Aren't you being a little too ruthless? Forcefully forcing someone to call her 'wife', yet not even treating her as a lovely wife to protect? Let's not even talk about whether she actually bumped into someone. According to her current status, at the very least, we should have explained it clearly to her beforehand, right?"

He smiled slowly, but there was a hidden truth in his words.

The man remained silent. Then he continued, "Or … You have no feelings for her at all? "

With that in mind, he had questioned the company several times in the afternoon, but the man had not replied. Could it be that he had married the woman for some other purpose, and not for what he had imagined?

Chi Yufeng's interest was piqued. He sat up from the sofa and rubbed his chin with one hand. His eyes were filled with curiosity as he said, "Am I right again?"

He said so much, and Gong Yan only had one thought in mind: noisy.

And it was under the condition that he was in a bad mood.

He leaned back against the back of the sofa, closed his eyes, and placed one hand on the armrest, knocking his long clean fingers against it. "If you think it's too boring to be a doctor, I've recently acquired a magazine company and lack your entertainment, which is good at digging up gossip. If you want to go, I can recommend you."

Chi Yufeng shrugged and leaned back on the sofa.

He already knew that it would be harder to extract anything from this man than to ascend to heaven, so he didn't have much hope. However, since he was a man, he had his emotions and desires, and there were always traces to be found.

"Then let's wait. It won't take long."

With that, he looked up the stairs.

"..."

Water.

Endless sea.

It was so painful that he couldn't breathe or move.

Who could save her... Save her...

"Save me …" Save me... "So uncomfortable. I can't move, I can't move …"

"MsPei, areyouok? Listen, relax. I: 'llcountthereetwooneyou:' llwakeup. OK? ( Miss Pei, are you all right? "Listen to me, relax, I'll count down to 321 and you'll wake up."

"Three!"

"Save me …" "I'm here …"

"Two!"

"Save me! "Save me!"

"One!"

"Ugh …"

His tightly shut eyes suddenly opened.

What he saw was a middle-aged man's unfamiliar face.

Pei Luoyi's eyes were wide open as she gasped for breath. Her brain was still in a state of whiteness.

She leaned on the soft sofa and slowly sat up. She lifted her hand to touch her face, feeling the wetness. It was sweat.

It was too real.

The most shocking memory in her memories poured out, causing her to feel as if she was right there.

The despair of drowning slowly consumed the line of defense that was about to collapse.

"Are you all right?"

The gentle voice of the middle-aged man came into her ears. She suddenly realized that she had just been hypnotized, but the intense and real situation made it difficult for her to get out of the trance.

She slowly nodded her head. The man spoke in an American accent, but since he had returned from studying abroad, there were no obstacles in their daily conversation.

"I'm sorry, Miss Pei, but I think I have to stop this hypnosis session and suggest that you quickly seek out the help of a professional psychologist... You've drowned, right? "

Even though the man had good intentions, Pei Luoyi didn't want to bring up the matter at all.

And the most important thing is not this.

"Dr. Harris, I..." Remaining in her mind, Pei Luoyi closed her eyes and calmed down a little. She raised her head to look at the man beside her and spoke in fluent English, "Excuse me, about the accident, in my memory …"

"No, no, no. You can rest assured about this matter. I will also tell you the truth about my results. Right now, I feel that what you need the most …"

"I'm sorry, but I will take care of this matter myself. Thank you for your concern."

Without waiting for the man to finish his suggestion, Pei Luoyi cut him off in the middle of his sentence.

The man paused. His expression was grave and hesitant, but in the end, he still nodded his head.

After resting for a while, the two stood up and left the study.

Downstairs.

Out of the corner of his eyes, the man saw two figures coming down the stairs. He put down his teacup heavily and immediately stood up to greet them.

Chi Yufeng, who hadn't even had a cup of tea, was shocked by the man's actions and almost burned his mouth.

However, when he saw two figures walking down the stairs and the man walking away so nervously, he couldn't help but smile with a hint of interest before standing up and following them.

When Gong Yan saw the woman behind the middle-aged man, he frowned.

The woman's pale face was filled with fatigue. If not for the wooden armrest, her frail body would have fallen down the stairs in the next second.

Her long legs, wrapped in black trousers, came up the stairs, and before she could reach the woman, she twisted her ankle and lunged at him.

Pei Luoyi only felt her vision darken. By the time she realized what was happening, she had already fallen into the arms of a man.

His cheek was pressed against the man's warm and thick chest, giving off an ethereal feeling.

She tried to struggle free from his embrace, but her body seemed to be completely drained of energy.

In the next second, his entire body flew into the air.

She struggled to keep her eyelids open, watching the man's taut jaw and the thin straight line of his lips.

It was hard to say where the feeling of grievance and disappointment had come from.

Humans really do not like to be disappointed … If only he hadn't had any expectations in the beginning.

Gong Yan carried the woman down the stairs and placed her on the sofa without much weight. Then he asked the servant to cover her with a thin blanket.

During the whole process, the woman seemed to have fallen asleep. It was very quiet, but upon closer inspection, one could tell that she had not fallen asleep. It was as if she had suffered some sort of severe injury, causing her to be in a state of unease.

Chi Yufeng was learning the results of his hypnosis from Dr. Harris. Before he could say anything, the man's deep voice was heard.

He could only let the man sit down for a while before walking around the tea table. "What happened?"

Gong Yan turned around, his face dark, "Look at her."
