Chapter 318: Co Here
Lin Yan stood outside the storeroom and swallowed her saliva nervously.
Would a group of haters be waiting there to bash her up?
She couldn’t be blad for letting her thoughts run wild. Pei Nanxu had asked her to co to this place, which was really weird...
Lin Yan shook her head to get rid of those nonsensical thoughts. She had confird this with Pei Nanxu earlier on, so this had to be an important matter.
She hastily took another step and gingerly pushed the door a little.
The door was covered by a layer of dust and rust. Lin Yan had rely pushed it gently, yet the door opened, creating a gap.
She exerted more strength and the door swung open.
She strode in carefully.
The lights weren’t switched on, so it was rather dark inside. There was a tiny window at the top of a wall that allowed so light to enter. She could vaguely make out the furniture in the ssy room. Everything was covered in dust and cobwebs, as though it had been abandoned for a long ti.
Lin Yan was still thinking about Pei Nanxu when, suddenly, a tiny red light appeared in the middle of the dim room and flickered brightly.
After Lin Yan got accustod to the dimness of the room, she realized that the red light ca from a lit cigarette.
In a dark corner was a towering figure who was standing next to a tall cupboard.
The night breeze blew away the clouds, and more moonlight stread in through that tiny window.
The man was wearing a long jacket, and his head was bowed. He was holding a cigarette in his hand as he gazed at the ground quietly.
When he heard Lin Yan’s footsteps, the man turned his head to look at her.
The smoke of the cigarette shrouded him. However, even though she couldn’t quite make out his features, she had recognized him.
Pei Yucheng...
The man’s eyes seed even darker and more intense than the night.
There was complete silence in the abandoned storeroom. The man’s figure in the moonlight was so enticing that it made her heart palpitate.
As Lin Yan stood rooted to the spot, the man’s hoarse voice was heard.
“Co here.”
The night breeze blew the clouds away completely.
Lin Yan could clearly see the man’s face now.
He looked quite exhausted and travel-worn in his jacket. As he glanced at her calmly, his voice made her turn rigid.
Lin Yan blinked and instinctively walked towards the man. Surprise was etched on her face as she said, “Mr. Pei? It’s really you? I was wondering why your brother would ask
to co here...”
An assortnt of objects cluttered her pathway, so she had to avoid them carefully. She was about three steps away from Pei Yucheng now.
“Mr. Pei, I thought you were supposed to co back next week? Why did you co back so abruptly? And...”
She was interrupted mid-sentence as she felt his hands tightening around her waist. The rest of her words were lost in her throat.
The man remained cold and aloof as he watched the girl in front of him. He discarded his cigarette and stamped on it to snuff it out.
As if he couldn’t wait for Lin Yan to walk over to him, he extended his long hand and pull her into his embrace...
