C112

Tang Sen was leaning against a wutong tree outside the door. As soon as he took out a cigarette and lit it, he saw a thin figure walk out of the villa and leave.

Even though his steps were unsteady, it was still very fast.

He squinted and took a drag on his cigarette, then threw it on the floor and stubbed it out. Just as he was about to lift his heel to it, his cell phone rang in his pocket.

He looked at the screen and accepted the call without hesitation.

"Take her to the door and watch her get into the car." The man's deep voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Yes."

He responded and set his heels on it.

Pei Luoyi was feeling extremely dizzy as she walked several times and nearly passed out.

He forced himself to walk out of the black iron gate.

She found a stone block and sat down to rest.

Her long fingers brushed her hair away from her forehead, and she rubbed her tightly-knit forehead to soothe her taut nerves.

The night wind on the mountain blew by, blowing against their faces and dispersing the heat of the day.

Pei Luoyi rubbed her hands for a while before lowering her hands and placing them on her knees. Her gaze indifferently fell upon the brightly lit night scenery of the city, which was as vast as the sea of stars, far away at the foot of the mountain.

His emotions gradually calmed down.

The wind blew her scattered hair, causing it to flutter in the air, revealing her clean and fair face. In the silent night, it gave birth to a few faint traces of loneliness.

Not long after, a red Beetle sedan appeared at the end of the mountain road.

She stood up, straightened her skirt, and walked to the side of the road with her bag in her hand.

The fast car came to a close, screeching stop beside her.

Pei Luoyi was startled. It was rare for someone to be so restless while driving.

As the car came to a halt, the woman in the driver's seat pushed open the door and stepped out. She walked straight to the back of the car and bent over to inspect something.

Then, a sound rang out, "F * ck!"

Pei Luoyi looked at Xin Yi as she patted her butt. With her hands on her waist and a furious expression on her face, she walked over.

"What's wrong?" She looked from the angry expression on the woman's face to the back of the car.

When he got closer, he discovered that a piece of paint had been rubbed off on the back of the car. It was quite eye-catching, so it was no wonder Xin Yi was so angry.

"I just met a stinking man on the way here. He clearly wasn't good at driving, and he even bumped into my car. Yet, he pulled up the window to mock me, telling me to re-examine his driver's license … Ah, I should have got out of the car and hit him! "This is so infuriating!"

Pei Luoyi saw the woman grabbing her hair and stomped her feet in anger. She hurriedly pulled her hand down and comforted her, "Alright, it's good that you're fine. I'll accompany you to repair the car another day."

In the end, this was all because she had asked Xin Yi to come and fetch her back. Otherwise, she wouldn't have encountered such a situation. Pei Luoyi glanced at the location where the paint had been scraped off and thought of the expenses to repair it.

Xin Yi pushed her hand away and answered with a straight face, "The problem is not the car, do you understand? It was that stinking man's attitude. I drove without a hitch, but he was driving too fast and brushed against my car. The roads on the mountain weren't wide, so why was he driving so fast … Yi Yi! "

She quickly caught the figure of the woman who almost fell down, but when she saw the pale face of Pei Luoyi, a hint of panic flashed across her eyes.

"What's wrong with you? Is there something wrong? "

Pei Luoyi held her forehead as a wave of dizziness assaulted her mind, rendering her unable to stand up.

She shook her head with her eyes closed and said in a voice as weak as a mosquito, "I'm fine. I'm just a little dizzy …" Let's go back. "

"Alright, I'll help you get on the car."

Seeing this, Xin Yi didn't dare to delay any longer. She helped the woman open the door and let her in, then went around to the driver's seat.

The red sedan drove away, and the man hidden in the shade of the tree came out.

Townsend looked at the car as it moved away, then took out his cell phone and dialed a number.

"..."

In the 10-mile sector.

As soon as she got on the car, she fell into a deep sleep. She looked at the woman with eyes filled with fatigue and weakness, but didn't dare to disturb her.

It was only when they reached the apartment building where Pei Loyi lived that they woke her up.

"Yiyi, are you sure you don't want to go to the hospital? You don't look well. " Xin Xin frowned worriedly at the woman as she spoke.

He had been doing well the entire afternoon, so it was quite normal for him to leave. Yet, in just two hours, he managed to do something like this?

Pei Luoyi pursed her lips and shook her head. As she undid her seat belt, she said, "No need, I'm fine. I just need to rest for a bit."

"But …"

Before he could finish, the woman had already opened the door and got out. She sighed and followed him out.

The two of them took the elevator up to the second floor.

When they arrived at the entrance of the apartment building, Pai Luoyi unlocked the door and turned around. With great difficulty, she revealed a faint smile, "Alright, I'm really fine. It's getting late, you can go back first."

"Are you sure you can do it alone?"

"Sure, I'm just a little tired. I'll be fine after a nap."

Even though she said that, her pale face made people feel uneasy. She hesitated for a moment, and only left after the woman started to drive her away without a trace of politeness.

Pei Luoyi closed the door and turned on the light. Bright rays of light shone down from the ceiling, illuminating the quiet and secluded room.

She stood at the entrance, looking at this scene. A patch of air had suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

He was clearly the only one who lived in the past, but all of a sudden … It seemed that something was different.

She didn't want to pursue this further. Sometimes, thinking too much only added to her worries.

However, the more he tried to restrain himself from thinking too deeply about it, the more those wisps of emotions madly rushed out from his mind like weeds.

Petrov went into the kitchen and poured himself a glass of water, then returned to the living room and quietly sat down on the sofa. He stared at the mist curling around his cup of water and became lost in thought.

The phone in his bag suddenly rang.

She set the glass of water on the coffee table and rummaged through her purse for her cell phone.

On the screen, the words "paralyzed man" were reflected in his eyes.

She watched quietly, her eyes dimmed a little, hung up, turned off the screen, got up and went into the bedroom.

The phone quietly lay on the sofa for a few seconds before it lit up again. It was the same caller ID as before.

At the same time, in the Thousand Islands Manor.

The tall figure of the man stood in front of the French window, his dark and gloomy gaze resting somewhere outside the window.

As Gong Yan listened to the cold and emotionless female voice on the phone, he took the phone from his ear. As he watched the call hang up automatically, he frowned.

In these few short months, even though he hadn't been with her for long, he knew very well that even though that woman didn't like him very much, she would rarely refuse his calls.

Clearly, the situation in front of him was special.

She had feelings for him, or perhaps it could be read as — she was angry with him.

Because of tonight?

This was the first time that a man couldn't figure out what a woman was thinking.

Looking at the screen that had sunk into darkness, the man's handsome brow tightened.

"..."

The next day.

When Pei Luoyi woke up, she felt an indescribable weakness and powerlessness all over her body. Her head felt heavy, and she felt extremely uncomfortable.
