Chapter 1078 Mermaid Under the Moonlight
But Pei Ziheng also said: "You are tired."
He ordered people to take Xia Yu back to the hotel and took Xia Ling to the ice cream shop.
The cool breeze blows by the Seine River, and candlelight and night interweave into a dreamlike scene.
Xia Ling was in high spirits and ordered many kinds of ice cream, which filled the table for both of them. Pei Ziheng was afraid that she would eat too much, so he only allowed her to eat a little bit of everything. However, after she ate eight or nine kinds of alcoholic ice cream, she felt slightly tipsy and looked at the man in front of her with blurred eyes.
"Brother Pei..." she called inarticulately, "I want to..."
"You're so drunk, don't eat anymore." His low and gentle voice came, calling the waiter to pay the bill, and half-supporting and half-carrying her back to the car. The car drove smoothly to the hotel, and he effortlessly picked her up, held her hand through the lobby, got into the elevator, and arrived at the floor where they were staying.
The floor was very quiet, just the two of them, and the chandeliers decorated the corridor beautifully.
Xia Ling was still a little drunk and shook off Pei Ziheng's hand: "I can walk..." She staggered a few steps along the pattern of the carpet. She seemed to find it fun and jumped a few more times.
Pei Ziheng wanted to step forward to help her, but this little girl had a really bad drinking capacity and was so drunk that people were caught off guard.
Unexpectedly, his cell phone rang without warning. Pei Ziheng stopped where he was and picked up the phone. It was Chu Chen calling. It was business. There was new progress in a big project they were negotiating. The situation was a bit complicated. Chu Chen suggested that he meet with several key leaders in person immediately. , formulate new policies.
He said: "Okay, you prepare the information first, I will come over now."
While talking, his eyes were still fixed on the swaying girl not far away.
The girl jumped a few more steps along the pattern of the carpet. When she turned around, seeing that he had not followed, she staggered back and grabbed the corner of his clothes with some dissatisfaction: "Brother Pei, let's play together."
Very childish looking.
Pei Ziheng smiled and gently touched her soft long hair: "Brother Pei has to go to a meeting now. You go back to your room and go to bed. Can we play together again tomorrow?"
She tilted her head, not satisfied: "Let's play together."
"Be good." He gently pulled her hand away from his clothes.
Xia Ling was unhappy and snorted, "Brother Pei is so annoying." She turned around and walked forward angrily. After walking a few steps, she turned back and said, "Give me the room card."
Both of them had their room cards on Pei Ziheng. Before Pei Ziheng could say anything, Xia Ling staggered forward and dug into his pocket, taking out both cards. "Not for you." She smiled slyly, with a touch of blush on her delicate jade cheeks. She was so drunk that she shook the card in her hand. She turned around proudly, hummed a song, and jumped up and down. Tiao walked away crookedly.
Pei Ziheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he let her go. In the evening, he asked the person at the service desk to get a new card.
Chu Chen called him several times on the phone: "Boss, boss? Jason is in a hurry and has sorted out several possible plans. You are waiting for your decision. Do you think Plan A or Plan C is suitable?"
This was a serious matter involving a large sum of money. Pei Ziheng took his eyes away from the girl, turned around, and while explaining something to Chu Chen on the phone, he pressed the elevator and went downstairs.
Xia Ling took two room cards and wandered to the door of the room.
She swiped one first, but it didn't work, then she swiped another one, and the door opened in response.
"I'm so exhausted..." She staggered into the door and inserted the room card into the card slot. She didn't insert anything in the hazy moment, and both room cards fluttered to the ground. "It's so dark," she muttered. She flicked the light switch a few times and left it alone.
The curtains were drawn in the room, and there was no light.
Only the direction of the bathroom reveals a hazy silver glow - this is a five-star luxury hotel. In the 24-story presidential suite, even the bathroom takes up two entire walls of floor-to-ceiling windows, right next to the embedded windows. Next to the traditional bathtub, the silver moonlight shines in through the one-way glass, making it as beautiful as a dream.
Xia Ling walked in unsteadily, her consciousness still not quite clear. She followed her instinct and filled the bathtub with water. She took off her clothes and crawled in using her hands and feet. The warm liquid spread out and surrounded her little by little. The girl's white and delicate body stretched softly under the moonlight. Her neck was slightly raised like a swan, and the small and graceful snow-colored hills on her chest were so beautiful. …
Compared to when she first came to the Pei family four years ago, she is more like a perfect fairy now.
She relaxed in the gentle waters, slowly closed her eyes, and fell asleep.
I don’t know when I woke up.
I seemed to hear the door opening outside, and then there was a rustling sound.
[It's so annoying...how could someone...? ] She thought drowsily, her eyelids moved slightly, but they were too heavy to open. [Who...who is coming...? ]
He was feeling lazy all over and had no energy at all.
There was another sound, this time closer. It seemed that the bathroom door was opened, and a few seconds later, the lights came on. The soft orange light hit her thin eyelids, which made her feel a little uncomfortable. She moved and muttered softly: "Who...turn it off..."
The lights were still on.
Everything was quiet again, no sound.
Xia Ling felt more and more uncomfortable. She covered her eyes with her hands, and her white limbs stretched out, like a beautiful mermaid. As she moved, the soft sound of water could be heard in her ears. She turned sideways, became more conscious, and mumbled dissatisfiedly again: "Who, turn off the light..."
As soon as I finished speaking, I suddenly remembered something——
Isn't she taking a shower in the bathroom? How could someone break in? !
Xia Ling was startled and woke up from the fright. She opened her eyes and half sat up from the bathtub.
Turning around, what she saw was the man standing at the door, a tall, handsome, familiar figure, looking at her motionless at this time. His eyes were deep and focused on her. There was some emotion hidden in them that she couldn't understand. It was so strong that it made her instinctively afraid.
She was so frightened that she forgot all her reactions, and even forgot that she was naked in front of him. She just looked at him like this, her whole body stiff and motionless.
Pei Ziheng also looked at her.
He knew he shouldn't look at it. At this time, he should turn around immediately and close the door for her like a gentleman. But he couldn't do it, he couldn't even move his eyes. When he just came in, he was caught off guard and saw her like a mermaid perched in half a pond of clear water. She was so mysterious and beautiful, and the feeling was...
Shocking.
His breathing was tight, and he felt a heat rising from his lower abdomen and spreading uncontrollably throughout his body.
