C158 No Matter What I like You

"I don't know the details, but there's one thing I'm sure of, that night, Xiao Yichen went to the hospital without caring about anything. After that, Qiao Anna returned to Chicago the next day. She also requested to withdraw 2% of the shares in Xiao's. Not only that, because of her withdrawal, the project that Xiao Yichen just signed in Europe might also be forcefully terminated. "

" Perhaps these are not enough to affect the future development of Xiao's, but... It was a big storm for Xiao Yichen to become the new official. Also, it might affect his current position as the director. Are you serious? " Zhang Chen raised his eyebrows at Pei Luoluo with a helpless expression.

Pei Luoluo secretly mocked him in her heart. She was indeed a young lady from a prestigious family. She could be a threat just by throwing a tantrum.

"So it is equivalent to me harming Xiao Yichen?" Pei Luoluo helplessly pulled the corner of her mouth. She was clearly the victim, but she had become an unforgivable sinner.

Zhang Chen cleared his throat, waved his hand, and continued, "You can't say that. Objectively speaking, the situation at that time... Xiao Yichen was the owner of the entire banquet. In his territory, if something happened, he had to take care of it no matter what. So even if this matter got out of hand, it would still give him an excuse. However, the current situation was that your relationship with him has been exposed. Even if Xiao Yichen were to suppress you with a huge amount of money, there would still be people who are not afraid of death or negligence."

"That's why I'm staying in Xiao house now. It's safest and most suitable for me to not go anywhere."

"You can say that!"

Seeing Pei Luoluo's silence, Zhang Chen also felt very uncomfortable in his heart.

However, the outside world was already in an uproar, and it was all negative news about Xiao Yichen. If Qiao Anna's side rarely had any problems, Xiao Yichen's current position would be loosened.

Even if what Zhang Chen said just now had a slight chance of winning, once their relationship was exposed, there would be no saving them.

"Do you still want to continue to follow up on the case?" Zhang Chen held the door handle before he left and turned around to ask tentatively.

Pei Luoluo looked at the door blankly, then turned around to look at the notebook and shook her head.

"Master, after you catch the murderer, remember to tell me." After Zhang Chen left, Pei Luoluo suddenly rushed out and shouted at his back.

That night, Xiao Yichen only returned home in the middle of the night. Pei Luoluo could not sleep and just lied on the bed, tossing and turning. In the end, she directly passed a coat and sat on the balcony, staring blankly at the sky full of stars.

There were too many scenes in her mind that she could not make sense of. Han Xuanlin's strategy was getting more and more vicious, and now there was even Qiao Anna! Furthermore, Lin Jinyu's tragic death made her unable to sleep peacefully. This kind of anxious feeling made Pei Luoluo's entire body uncomfortable.

"Still not asleep?" Pei Luoluo lifted her eyes and subconsciously covered the lights that suddenly lit up in the room. Then, she saw the tired Xiao Yichen appear in her field of vision, followed by his tired voice.

"Why are you drinking?" Pei Luoluo lifted the blanket and got up to walk to him. Then, she quickly smelled the alcohol all over his body. His eyes were blurred and it was obvious that he had drunk too much.

Xiao Yichen did not say anything. He closed his dry lips tightly and walked straight to the bathroom. Pei Luoluo quietly followed behind him until he closed the bathroom door. Then, she quietly walked to the small kitchen in the bedroom. She gave him a cup of honey water and knocked on the bathroom door.

"Come in." Pei Luoluo heard Xiao Yichen's deep and steady voice from the inside. She opened the door and walked in.

The bathroom was very big. Just the bathtub alone could fit six or seven adults. Next to it was a sauna. The equipment was very complete.

In the bathtub, Xiao Yichen put his hands on both sides of his body and raised his head to rest with his eyes closed. Pei Luoluo walked over and he did not open his eyes. He only asked her what was the matter.

"I made you a cup of honey water that can cure alcohol. When you wake up the next morning, your stomach will not be too uncomfortable."

To walk to the bath, they needed to take a few steps up. Pei Luoluo stood at the bottom with the honey water in her hands. Her voice was very soft, but it was enough for both of them to hear.

Hua! There was the sound of water falling. Then Xiao Yichen stood up from the water and faced Pei Luoluo with a profound look in his eyes.

"Pei Luoluo, can you tell me why you want to marry me? Or should I tell you that I have not completely destroyed the Han's for you? That's why you are unwilling to leave me? " Xiao Yichen walked down step by step, his eyes fixed on Pei Luoluo. His cold eyes seemed to be cold and doubtful, and there seemed to be a hint of sadness in them.

Pei Luoluo had never seen such a Xiao Yichen before. She could feel his impatience and anger. It was as if something had made him feel despair in his heart. It made this man who had always been on guard against the people around him. In an instant, there was a layer of gloominess that was harder to get close to.

"You drank too much." Pei Luoluo's hand that was holding the cup tightened. She was afraid that Xiao Yichen would break the cup again. This time, no matter who it was, it would be sad.

"I am asking you a question!" Xiao Yichen grabbed Pei Luoluo's arm. The cup splashed with the hot honey water with his strength.

Pei Luoluo felt pain, but she did not let go of the three-layered crystal cup, which had a high heat insulation, and fell to the ground. She looked into Xiao Yichen's eyes and said firmly, "I like you! Xiao Yichen! I have said it many times! I like you! Ten years ago, it was the same, no matter how cold you were. You, who made me shiver countless times, even you, who did not abide by the agreement I made three years ago... Even if you promised me when I was a child, you would go against my promise! I have never thought of giving up!"

Pei Luoluo's voice slowly became loud. The last sentence of I like you almost used up all the courage in her body.

Suddenly, she felt as if time had stopped. The two of them looked at each other. Because of her height, Pei Luoluo could only look up. Then, she felt a warm drop on her face. It slowly slid down her cheeks.

She raised her hand to touch it but found that her hand was holding the cup in one hand and the other arm was imprisoned in Xiao Yichen's palm.

"You..." Pei Luoluo wanted to speak but was pulled forward by a force and fell into a strong and warm embrace. The cup of water was directly smashed to the ground by him and the words that had yet to come out were drowned in that crazy and sudden kiss.

That kiss was moist and hot, and it was swift and fierce. It was as if it could not wait to suck all of her into this dark sky. It made her dizzy and lose her mind. Even Pei Luoluo's brain did not have time to react, but her body gave an honest response.
