Devil CEO and His Star Wife - C173
Pei Er approached Ji Chenxi quietly, and then suddenly pushed Ji Chenxi and shouted: “Wa!”
Ji Chenxi was shocked, but he could only helplessly look at the culprit who had a sweet smile on his face.
“What, have you recovered your memories or are you ignoring me?” Pei Er pretended to ask casually, but she was actually very nervous in her heart. It was because Ji Chenxi was so engrossed in thought, could it be another girl?
“No.” Ji Chenxi did not want to answer, the yearning belonged to him alone.
“Yeah!” Pei Er pretended not to care, but his brain continued to let his imagination run wild because he could not get an answer.
The autumn breeze was cold, blowing against the two of them.
Pei Er unconsciously shivered and sneezed.
Ji Chenxi took off his outer robes and covered Pei Er’s body: “The weather has turned cold, why aren’t you wearing more?”
Ji Chenxi’s concern made Pei Er feel a sweet sensation in her heart. She pulled her jacket closer to herself and smelt the familiar smell of Ji Chenxi.
Ji Chenxi thought of another woman who was not good at taking care of herself.
I wonder if her cold is better? Did you put on any more clothes? How are you? Haven’t seen her in weeks! Ji Chenxi thought. Lin Sirou seemed to be intentionally avoiding him.
However, none of these questions could be answered by Ji Chenxi, because the only person who could answer them was unwilling to meet him, and since he was unwilling to meet him, he knew that it would be inconvenient for him to look for Lin Sirou, and did not want to cause her trouble.
Pei Er looked at Ji Chenxi whose thoughts had drifted away once again. Ji Chenxi, who was seriously deep in thought, was very handsome. However, Pei Er did not have the mood to appreciate Ji Chenxi, because her female intuition allowed her to directly believe that he was thinking about a woman, a woman that Ji Chenxi deeply loved even after he recovered his memories.
Lin Sirou walked on the crowded streets, and as many people walked past her, the cold wind could not bypass the pedestrians, so it blew past her, causing her to feel hot and stuffy.
Lin Sirou’s brain did not seem to be hers, it was constantly changing the things that Ji Chenxi had told him, and Lin Sirou also did not hold back. Perhaps it was because after a long time, she had become calm, or maybe she was able to think about another person like him.
It is impossible to describe the feeling of being unable to be together. It is impossible to describe the bitterness and sweetness of missing someone else’s heart.
“I love you.” It was easy to say, but hard to hold on to.
Inside, Luo Xiaotang sat alone at the counter. Ever since Lin Sirou got sick that day, he had not come here again.
Perhaps he did not want to continue being a depraved person! Luo Xiaotang thought happily.
“Luo Xiaotang.” Cheng Feng came in front of Luo Xiaotang.
“As long as it’s plain water.” Luo Xiaotang smiled. Her smile was very natural, but the rigidity of her body revealed the surging feeling in her heart.
“Boiling water?” Cheng Feng looked at Luo Xiaotang in disbelief.
Bai Kaishui? Who would come here to order boiled water? Cheng Feng’s heart was filled with doubts.
“I’m thirsty.” Luo Xiaotang continued to smile.
“Alright.” Cheng Feng.
Actually, Luo Xiaotang had planned to not come, but something seemed off about him coming. She knew what made her so determined to come, and it was her love for Cheng Feng that she couldn’t let go. However, she didn’t have the courage to accept Cheng Feng again.
“Where are you going later?” Cheng Feng placed the water in front of Luo Xiaotang and asked, pretending to be natural.
“A date.” Luo Xiaotang also pretended not to mind.
Yes, Luo Xiaotang did it on purpose, but she just wanted to anger him for no reason.
He wanted to stop Luo Xiaotang but he knew that he no longer had the qualifications to do so. After hurting Luo Xiaotang, he no longer had the qualifications to do anything to Luo Xiaotang.
Seeing that Cheng Feng did not have much of a reaction, she was infuriated. She drank half of the boiling water then stood up and left without looking back.
It was a habit that Cheng Feng developed when he was with Luo Xiaotang. Even when they had separated later on, Cheng Feng had not changed his habit of drinking the remaining half cup of water that Luo Xiaotang had left behind. Actually, he did not want to change his habit at all.
Luo Xiaotang liked to buy lots of things to eat, but he would always buy one or two before throwing them to Cheng Feng.
Sometimes, there would only be one or two mouthfuls left, but even if Luo Xiaotang was not willing to eat it all, it was not because she was full, but because she did not want to eat it anymore.
Luo Xiaotang was extremely helpless towards this habit of Luo Xiaotang’s, but there were very few opportunities for him to “implement” this habit now, so somewhere in Cheng Feng’s heart, he still hoped that this habit could continue for the rest of his life.
Walking out of the bar, Luo Xiaotang stood on the sparsely populated street. She suddenly felt her sorrow, she knew how much she loved Cheng Feng, she didn’t want to love him anymore, but she still couldn’t let him go.
Sometimes, Luo Xiaotang felt that he was very weak, and couldn’t even forget the person that had hurt him before. But she just loved him.
Ji Chenxi slept blurrily. In his dreamy sleep, he heard his phone suddenly ring.
Without even looking at who it was, Ji Chenxi picked up the phone: “Hello?”
“Chen Xi, did I disturb you?” Pei Er’s voice seemed to be choked with emotions.
“What’s wrong?” Pei Er’s sobs made Ji Chenxi much more clear-headed.
“I… My Home… There’s a power cut, I’m fine… “So scared.” The more Pei Er cried, the more heartbroken he became.
A trace of the crying sound entered Ji Chenxi’s ears, causing him to feel an uncontrollable tenderness: “Don’t be afraid, I’ll go over right now.”
Pei Er sat on the floor of the living room. The darkness made her feel fear as she tightly gripped her heartstrings.
The sudden ringing sound scared Pei Er, but when she thought of Ji Chenxi, she immediately got up and walked towards the door. Maybe she walked in too quickly, or maybe she was not familiar with this place, but Pei Er accidentally knocked onto the table.
Ah!” The pain made her cry out in pain.
However, Pei Er endured the pain as he limped his way to the door and opened it. Outside the door, he saw the real Ji Chenxi and rushed into his arms while crying.
Ji Chenxi lightly patted Pei Er’s trembling back, and the words that came out of his mouth were filled with deep pity: “Alright, alright.”
Her tears quietly stopped dripping, but Pei Er was still not willing to let go of Ji Chenxi. After all, she had been waiting for this hug for a long time, so she could enjoy Ji Chenxi’s tenderness once again.
After a long while, Ji Chenxi gently pushed Pei Er away: “Are you alright?”
“Yes.” Pei Er turned and tightly held onto Ji Chenxi’s hand.
“Then go inside!” Ji Chenxi led Pei Er into the living room. Although it was in the darkness, Ji Chenxi could still feel Pei Er’s limping.
“What’s the matter with you?” Ji Chenxi asked.
“I just hit something.” Pei Er’s voice was still hoarse.
“Where do you put the flashlight?” Ji Chenxi helped Pei Er to sit on the sofa.
“The cabinet under the TV.”
Ji Chenxi fumbled in the dark and walked towards the television. When his hand came in contact with the television, he squatted down and opened the cabinet, and then fumbled in it for a flashlight. After finding the flashlight, he took it out and switched on the light, and walked towards Pei Er’s position.
Ji Chenxi squatted in front of Pei Er, shining the light of the flashlight on his face, making him look even more enchanting.
“Where are you hurt?” Ji Chenxi suppressed the heat.
“I think it’s the right thigh.”
Pei Er rolled up his pants, and when Ji Chenxi shone his light on Pei Er’s thigh, there really was a red mark on the outside of his thigh.
Ji Chenxi originally wanted to reach out a hand to help Pei Er so the pain could be alleviated, but suddenly Ji Chenxi felt that something was amiss and retracted his hand.
“Press it! Otherwise there will be bruises tomorrow. ” Ji Chenxi sat next to Pei Er, shining the light forward.
It was impossible for Ji Chenxi to not be moved by the girl he once deeply loved, but his heart was already tied to another girl, so he suppressed his throbbing heart. But men were always especially sensitive creatures, and their breathing gradually rose and fell.
Maybe the first man who entered her life was always unforgettable by girls. Pei Er’s heartbeat became erratic, and then it kept on speeding up.
The clearer the picture was, the harder it was to suppress Ji Chenxi, who was about to fall into the abyss, he had to stop the mistake from happening in time.
Suddenly, Ji Chenxi stood up: “It’s good that you’re fine, I’ll be leaving first.”
When Ji Chenxi was about to leave, Pei Er caught hold of Ji Chenxi’s hand, firmly preventing him from struggling to break free. Pei Er’s move had been done with tacit approval, she was willing, she was willing to do it, if Ji Chenxi wanted it.
“I don’t love you anymore. Even if I lost my memory, I wouldn’t be able to love you. What’s more, I’ve already recovered my memories?” At that moment, Ji Chenxi could only say that to make Pei Er give up.
This sentence truly caused the tears that Pei Er had stopped once again to dissipate. “You once said that you would love me for a very long time.”
Pei Er remembered this vow deeply, and Ji Chenxi did not forget about it either. However, her words of farewell allowed Ji Chenxi to float this vow with the wind.
“I’m sorry, I fell in love with someone else.” Ji Chenxi spoke in a dull tone, but his heart still ached for Pei Er. After all, she was a woman that he had protected with all his might.
This sentence accurately shattered Pei Er’s heart. At this moment, she was only in a trance, unable to think of anything else, unable to say anything. She could only express her heartache with tears.
Ji Chenxi knew that he wouldn’t be able to comfort Pei Er, otherwise it would ignite her hope, and the one who would hurt the most would still be her.
Ji Chenxi left silently.
After who knows how long, the lights in the room suddenly lit up, causing Pei Er’s eyes to be unable to adapt. Luckily she had her hands on her face, and tears flowed down her face. Her bright eyes were now filled with hatred.
“Lin Sirou…”
