Chapter 86 - Pei Li’s Pursuit
Chapter 86: Pei Li’s Pursuit
As soon as he entered the teahouse, he was greeted by the warmth of the air. He did not immediately change his clothes and did not feel cold. Dark 19 did not know what Shen Xiaoxiao wanted to do. Instead, he watched as she continued to walk towards a lady’s seat in the hall.
He knew that she was the wife of the Chairman of the Fulin Group. They had just been soaking in the hot spring together. What was Miss trying to do?
He saw Shen Xiaoxiao walk behind her willow-like eyebrows. When she was less than a meter away from the lady, he saw Shen Xiaoxiao reach out and wave her hand behind the lady’s back. A big gash appeared on the lady’s silk scarf.
Dark 19 was dumbfounded. Miss, where, where, where did you hide the blade?
When did you take it out? He had checked all of the lady’s luggage and did not find any lethal weapons?
But before Dark 19 could figure it out, he heard Shen Xiaoxiao say, “Madam, your scarf has a big cut.”
Dark 19, who was surprised and innocent at the same time, felt that he was inferior to her. He said that women were the most terrifying animals in the world. Look, such a different appearance. It was clearly the Miss who had broken the scarf, but she still said that it was the lady who had broken it. Her approach was really good. It was really good.
Liu Mei was indeed on the right track. She immediately turned around and exclaimed, “Ah, I didn’t realize it just now. If I wore this, it would be so embarrassing. Thank you so much, Young Miss.”
Liu Mei directly took off the scarf. She looked at Shen Xiaoxiao, who was kind enough to remind her, and smiled warmly and amiably.
However, Shen Xiaoxiao’s performance was even better. “Oh, so it’s you, Madam? We were just soaking in the hot spring together. It seems like fate has brought us together.”
Liu Mei recognized the young girl when she turned her head. She had felt that the young girl looked very familiar when she was soaking in the hot spring, especially when she looked like an old friend. Naturally, she had a good impression of her.
“Yeah, it’s really fate. Why didn’t you soak in the hot spring? It’s quite comfortable to soak in that.”
“I’m not soaking anymore. I’m a little thirsty, so I thought of coming over to find some water to drink. Eh, Madam is drinking flower tea. Do you mind if I ask for a cup of water to drink?”
“Of course I don’t mind. Come, come, sit down.”
As expected, Shen Xiaoxiao successfully cornered Liu Mei. She gestured to 19 and 19 respectfully retreated. However, his sense of the Miss had once again been refreshed to a new level.
Was this a little girl who had been locked up for 11 years? He shook his head. No, there was no resemblance at all. She must be a monster like Boss. Yes, otherwise, why would Boss pamper her so much?
“Let’s not call each other ‘young lady’ or ‘madam’ anymore. I see that you’re about the same age as my son. Just call me Aunt Liu. May I know your surname, young lady?”
“That’s a good relationship. I’ll call you Aunt Liu. My surname is Lin. You can call me Weiwei.”
“Okay, okay. I like a straightforward girl like you. Take a sip of tea. Although this is indoors, the temperature here is still not high.”
“Thank you, Aunt Liu. Was that your son who was at the hot spring pool just now? He’s about my age, but I see that your son and daughter-in-law have accompanied you to the hot spring. They’re really filial.”
“Hahahaha, what son and daughter-in-law? That’s my son and my niece. Aren’t they on winter vacation? My son is filial and said that I can soak in the hot spring if my heart isn’t good, but I can’t soak in it for too long. So, I just sat here alone and waited for them.”
“Ah, I’m sorry, Aunt Liu. I thought they were your son and daughter-in-law. I saw that their relationship was so good and they were having fun. They even fed each other. I misunderstood. I’m really sorry.”
After saying this, Liu Mei’s expression changed. However, she quickly recovered and continued to chat with Shen Xiaoxiao with a smile.
Of course, Shen Xiaoxiao did not want Liu Mei to discover anything immediately. She was just reminding her so that she could think about it. As for the rest, she would take it slowly. She was not in a hurry. There were still a few years before the incident in her past life was exposed.
Shen Xiaoxiao and Liu Mei were chatting happily. She could be considered to know Liu Mei quite well. Some topics could interest Liu Mei very much. However, just as the two of them were chatting happily, Shen Xiaoxiao actually saw Pei Li walking in from the corner of her eye. Moreover, his eyes seemed to have been staring at her the entire time. Shen Xiaoxiao instantly became vigilant.
The chatting activities naturally had to be paused. She pretended as if nothing had happened and said goodbye to Liu Mei. Liu Mei was a little reluctant to part with her. It was rare to find a girl who could chat so happily with her. However, she was not in a hurry. It was a little cold for her to be sitting here in her swimsuit. Moreover, they had agreed to have dinner together in the hall tonight. Now, she would let the little girl change her clothes and continue the conversation at night.
After Shen Xiaoxiao got up, Dark 19 followed her directly. When they reached the bathroom door, Shen Xiaoxiao said to Dark 19, “19, help me take my yellow down jacket. It’s too cold here.”
19 did not doubt it. He looked at the bathroom and could not enter. There were cameras everywhere, so he said to Shen Xiaoxiao, “Miss, wait for me in the hall after you change your clothes. There’s a heater there, so Miss won’t be frozen.
That Mrs. Huang is the wife of the CEO of the Fulin Group. She has a good character. Miss, you can be at ease in dating her.”
Shen Xiaoxiao felt like she was about to crack. Fine, did he have to be so careful? He even checked the people she was dating.
However, she also knew that this must have been Yan Kuan’s instructions. It seemed that the Liu Mei couple were indeed not bad people. Even the Dark Empire said that they were not bad people. They should be really not bad people.
However, her goal was to get rid of Dark 19 and then properly meet Pei Li. Naturally, he would do whatever she said.
Once Dark 19 left, she quickly went into the bathroom and changed her clothes. She came out with a pair of simple jeans, a long sweater, and a red woolen coat.
Her hair was half-dry, and she looked fresh and spirited, making her look clean and pleasing to the eye.
Pei Li held a bottle of water in his hand and just as he raised his head to drink it, he saw a beautiful woman who looked like a lotus flower walking out.
She was different from Liu Yufei’s graceful and demure beauty. This girl’s beauty was flamboyant and capable, and she looked clean and pure. As soon as she walked out and saw her like this, Pei Li actually had a long-lost feeling of being moved.
Pei Li was used to pretending to be the young master of an aristocratic family. He was gentle and refined. When he saw Shen Xiaoxiao walk out, he casually and naturally took a towel from his side and said to Shen Xiaoxiao, “Miss, dry your hair. It’s easy to catch a cold in winter.”
Shen Xiaoxiao was stunned. She was really stunned. Why did this Pei Li look like he was trying to strike up a conversation with her? This style was not right, right?
Seeing that Shen Xiaoxiao was in a daze, Pei Li cleverly placed the towel on the back of a chair beside her hand and said, “My sister is the same age as you. I couldn’t help but think of you as my sister. I was rude. I’m sorry. Please excuse me.”
It was really a beautiful game. He was playing hard to get. According to the script, shouldn’t she immediately take the towel and say to him, “Oh, no, thank you, Sir. Are you really a good person?”
She, Shen Xiaoxiao, was not that cheap. Moreover, how did she chase after this scumbag in her previous life? He wanted her to take the bait with just this little trick? In his dreams.
Moreover, seeing this scumbag in this life was really useless. He had a white board body that looked like a weak chicken, and he was not even half as good as Yan Kuan. How could she fall for such a person?
Eh, why did she think of Yan Kuan again? Seriously.
However, when she saw Pei Li turn around and walk unusually slowly, Shen Xiaoxiao laughed mockingly. She glanced at the towel placed on the back of the chair and turned around to take another towel from the other end to dry her hair. She did not even glance at that scumbag. She walked to the other end.
Shen Xiaoxiao had been walking slowly. When Pei Li, who was secretly watching Shen Xiaoxiao, saw that this little girl actually did not follow the script that he had thought of, he instantly felt a crack in his heart. However, a strong desire to challenge her arose in his heart.
