194 No Wonder She Was Bullied
Tang Ni thought that he was going to fire her and was so anxious that she even freaked out. “Boss, I really need this job. Give me another chance. I promise I won’t make the customers angry.”
“What happened today is not your fault.” Chu Yuzhou knew at a glance that she had misunderstood.
He leaned against the wall and took out a cigarette from the cigarette box. “I mean to transfer you to the logistics department.”
Only then did Tang Ni feel relieved.
She looked up at him and quickly lowered her head. “The logistics department doesn’t seem to be short-staffed.”
“Leave this to me.” Chu Yuzhou blew out a mouthful of smoke. “How old are you?”
“Twenty-two.”
“You don’t look so.” SHe looked like a high school student.
“I can show you my ID card.” Tang Ni looked extremely obedient.
No wonder she was bullied by those bastards.
“That’s not necessary.” Chu Yuzhou stopped the club manager who was passing by and told him about transferring Tang Ni to the logistics department.
“Thank you.” Tang Ni looked at Chu Yuzhou gratefully and followed the club manager downstairs.
Chu Yuzhou, who had retracted his gaze, had just pushed open the door of the private room next door when a few gossipy gazes landed on him.
Shen Yi raised an eyebrow. “I didn’t expect I’d ever live to see Young Master Chu saving the damsel in distress.”
“How did you know?”
“I saw it.” Qu Shao happened to witness everything when he went to the washroom. He smiled and said, “How does it feel to hold hands with her?”
“I don’t feel anything.” He couldn’t even remember.
“If you didn’t feel anything, why did you transfer her to the logistics department?” Zhou Yanshen put down the lighter. “Don’t try to fool us.”
“She’s my employee.” Chu Yuzhou sat down beside him casually. “It’s normal for me to help her out.”
“Yes, she’s indeed yours.”
Chu Yuzhou was embarrassed. “There’s really nothing between us. Can you guys stop it?”
“It can develop into something in the future.” Qu Shao poured beer into his glass and said with a serious expression, “To be honest, you two are very compatible.”
“How are we compatible?”
“In every aspect.”
Chu Yuzhou did not want to talk about this topic, nor did he want to recall that innocent-looking face.
“Playing dice.” He shook the dice cup and changed the topic. “I haven’t tortured you enough.”
After the unexpected episode, the game continued.
In the dim light, they sat around the table, chatting and laughing like they did at every gathering in the past.
Lin Jiao, who drank both beer and wine, was quite stoned.
She climbed onto Pei Zhi’s neck, clamoring to go home. When she felt the cold wind blowing at her, her eyes were even more blurry than before.
When she got into the car, she was still very obedient. She leaned into Pei Zhi’s arms and did not move, but when she got home, she seemed to have become a different person.
“Pei Zhi.”
“Yes?”
“Pei Zhi.” Lin Jiao repeated his name more than ten times and suddenly sat up from the sofa.
She took the makeup cotton from Pei Zhi’s hand and threw it on the ground. “I want to check the goods.”
“Check that Ruyao porcelain?”
“I don’t like Ruyan.”
Pei Zhi chuckled. “Then who do you like?” He patiently took out a new makeup cotton and squeezed a few drops of makeup water on it.
“I like you.”
“I don’t believe you unless you prove it.”
When Lin Jiao was not sober, it was easy for her to take the bait. When she was asked to prove it, she sat up straighter.
She watched as Pei Zhi licked his thin lips and stared at him for a few seconds before going forward to kiss him.
Their breaths intertwined. Pei Zhi knew very well that he could not continue, but as if their lips were glued together, he couldn’t pull himself away.
It was not until the moment she fell into his arms that he came back to his senses. “Jiaojiao, can I help you remove your makeup first?”
His slightly hoarse voice was like an old wine, making people intoxicated and unable to reject him.
Lin Jiao leaned back. “Okay.” She felt the slightly cold makeup cotton rubbing against her skin. “I want to take a shower with you.”
“No.” Pei Zhi was focused. “You can’t even stand straight. How are you going to take a shower?”
“You can carry me and wash me.”
…She might as well kill him.
“Are you tired?” Lin Jiao asked.
“Yes, I drank too much.”
“Then let’s take a bath.”
“Another day.” Pei Zhi suppressed the urge and stood up to look for the trash can. “I’m not feeling well today.”
Lin Jiao looked at him in a daze and did not force him.
She yawned. After washing up in the bathroom, she lay on the bed in the master bedroom. “Pei Zhi, I want to test you.”
“Test me for what?” Pei Zhi unbuttoned his shirt and casually took off his shirt.
He leaned over slightly, and the muscles on his abdomen looked even more alluring under the night light. Lin Jiao couldn’t help but reach out and touch them gently.
Her fingertips were very warm, but as soon as they touched his skin, his back tensed.
“I’ll tell you when you come closer.” Lin Jiao poked him with her knuckles, her gaze fixed on him.
After getting drunk, she was much bolder than usual. She would not be shy easily, but she was extremely annoying.
Pei Zhi pulled her hand away and changed into his pajamas.
“I’m coming.” He lifted the blanket and crawled into the bed.
Lin Jiao grabbed his collar and pulled him closer.
She repeated what Qian Yue said to him, showing no sign of shyness.
However, the more this was the case, the harder it was for him to resist.
“Are you ready?” Her tone was very serious.
Pei Zhi swallowed. “No.”
“I’ll give you ten minutes to study.”
“How?”
“Aren’t there videos online?” She pointed at the wardrobe.
Pei Zhi let out a long and helpless sigh and pulled her into his arms again, locking her soft waist.
“Jiaojiao.” There was an imperceptible meaning in his eyes. “I don’t like to do things in a rush. I’ll learn it next time, okay?”
“When’s the next time?”
“The day you are awake and willing.”
Lin Jiao did not understand what he meant.
She looked into his deep eyes and forgot what she wanted to say. She even forgot about the test.
“Kiss me.” She pouted her red lips, her gentle voice like an electric current that brushed past Pei Zhi’s limbs.
He kissed her lightly and said, “Be good and go to sleep.” Without giving her a chance to make a fuss, he covered her eyes.
Lin Jiao, who was patted on the back, calmed down and fell asleep.
The moment the night light went out, the bedroom fell into darkness.
When a light breath brushed past Pei Zhi’s palm, he finally had a chance to catch his breath and relax.
He threw away all distracting thoughts and whispered “good night” into her ear.
