Endless Fall - Chapter 184

   Chapter 184 So Good

   “Lin Jiao, your flower.” Zhuo Yuan walked to her workstation with a large bouquet of champagne roses.

   After receiving different roses for three consecutive days, the empty table next to Lin Jiao was almost too empty.

   “Thank you.” She took it with a smile and asked embarrassedly, “Do you have an empty vase over there?”

“I gonna go see.”

   “Lin Jiao, your boyfriend is too attentive.” Aly turned her head and gave her an envious look.

   Other colleagues followed: “Yeah, my husband and I have only received three bundles after two years of marriage.”

   “It’s good that you have three bunches. A single dog like me is only for watching.”

   “Lin Jiao, how long have you been talking?” Zhuo Yuan came back with two vases and brought the topic back to her feelings.

  Lin Jiao said that she had a boyfriend during the memory confusion period, so it is difficult to change her words.

   “More than two months.” She unpacked the bouquet and inserted the roses into the vase one by one.

“How did you know each other?”

   “A friend introduced.”

   She didn’t ask any private questions, and Lin Jiao didn’t feel any pressure to talk to her.

   “Zhuo Yuan, put this on your desk.” She handed over a vase full of roses.

   “Thank you.” Zhuo Yuan lowered her head and sniffed lightly: “I feel much better when I smell the fragrance of flowers.”

  Lin Jiao also thinks so.

   She put another vase on Aly’s table, and went to collect other empty vases to share with others.

  I am also glad that no one in the planning department is allergic to pollen, otherwise she would have no place to put those flowers.

   “Buzz-buzz-“

   “Senior, your phone is ringing.”

   Hearing Meng Qian’s voice, Lin Jiao, who had just returned from the bathroom, quickened her pace and picked up the constantly vibrating mobile phone.

  She pressed the answer button: “Dad?”

   “Beautiful, are you free tomorrow night?”

“What’s wrong?”

  Lin Hongyuan briefly summed up the fact that he received an invitation to the auction: “If you are free, come with me.”

  Lin Jiao has never been to a banquet with him. To the outside world, the daughter of the Lin family has always been a mystery.

   In the past, she never agreed because of the conflict between him and Lin Kanglu, but now the situation is different. For the first time, she has no worries and just asked, “Aunt Fang want to go together?”

   “Your Aunt Fang is pregnant.” When he mentioned this, Lin Hongyuan’s voice was full of smiles: “It’s not convenient for her to go out now.”

  Lin Jiao was shocked by the news: “When did it happen? Why didn’t you tell me?”

   “In less than two months, we didn’t believe the result at first, so we went to two more hospitals, and it was confirmed yesterday.”

  Fang Liu and her ex-husband were married for three years when she was diagnosed with infertility, so she was forced to leave by her in-laws.

   Now that she is forty, there is no chance of getting pregnant again according to common sense. They are so cautious because they are afraid of having fun.

   “Aunt Fang’s reaction?”

   “A little big.”

   “Then you can ask another aunt to take care of her.” Lin Jiao couldn’t help worrying about her: “Also, you should stop smoking and drinking.”

   “No, your grandfather is staring at me all day long.” Lin Hongyuan didn’t have a chance to smoke or drink.

   He walked downstairs happily: “I’ll ask the driver to pick you up tomorrow night, you remember to dress up nicely and give your dad a face.”

  Lin Jiao replied with a smile: “I see.”

  Because it took a lot of time to deal with roses, she finished her afternoon work and arrived at the parking lot ten minutes later than usual.

   Coincidentally, I heard someone say—

   “Mr. Pei, can we chat?” Meng Qian didn’t expect to meet him, so she stopped him immediately.

“You are?”

   “My name is Meng Qian, an employee of the Planning Department.”

   Pei Zhi stood in front of the car body, the lights divided his figure into two halves, one half was hidden in the dark, and the other half was covered with a soft light, just like how he treated other women and Lin Jiao.

   His expression was very cold, even when he heard the three words of the planning department, he did not fluctuate: “Is something wrong?”

   “I like you.” Meng Qian has always been bold, especially when a bet is coming, she bluntly reveals her inner thoughts.

   She looked at the man’s extraordinarily superior face and said it was a lie not to be nervous, but the admiration in her eyes was not necessarily much.

   Pei Zhi frowned: “I have a girlfriend.”

   No surprise answer.

   Meng Qian chose to take a step back: “Can we add WeChat? We can be friends.”

   “Not interested.” He opened the car door and glanced at her coldly, full of warnings: “Do you want to transfer to the parking lot?”

   Meng Qian’s back stiffened: “I don’t want to!” She couldn’t stand the oppression coming from all directions, and ran to the opposite parking space.

   Seeing the car driving away at the fastest speed, Lin Jiao walked over with a smile: “Mr. Pei, why do you scare people like that?”

   “She bothers me first.” The coldness in Pei Zhi’s eyes was replaced by gentleness when she appeared.

   He rubbed the top of her hair: “Are you angry?”

   “How is that possible? I’m not that stingy.” Or because he gave him too much security, she didn’t need to be jealous.

   Seeing that she didn’t seem angry, Pei Zhi waited for her to get in the car and went around to the other end, without mentioning the previous episode.

   He stepped on the accelerator: “Jiaojiao, I’m going to Linshi tomorrow to discuss cooperation, and I’ll probably be back on Sunday.”

   “Then don’t drink outside.”

   “Don’t drink.” After waiting for the traffic light, he turned to look at her: “Can I stay at your house tonight?”

   He was driven back to the Red Maple Forest on Tuesday and Wednesday, and he really missed the feeling of having her in his arms.

  Lin Jiao didn’t know that he climbed the bed on Monday night, so he responded quickly: “Don’t send flowers tomorrow, there is no place to put them.”

   “Well.” Pei Zhi never thought of chasing someone with a few bouquets of roses: “How about we go to Changning Ancient Town next week?”

   “Is it fun over there?”

   “Qu Shao said it’s not bad.”

  Lin Jiao adjusted the height of the seat and relaxed the sore waist from sitting for a long time: “How long does it take to go back and forth?”

   “Three hours.” He gave an overview of the scenery he had seen on the video, without going into great detail to preserve the novelty.

   “By the way, I’m going to the auction tomorrow night.”

   “Who organized it?”

   “I don’t know.” Lin Jiao told him about Fang Liu by the way: “My dad is crazy with joy.”

   “It’s really worth being happy.” Pei Zhi smiled lightly: “When I get back, let’s go and have a look.”

   He was covered with a light outline by the sunset, showing gentleness, but Lin Jiao just glanced at it but couldn’t take her eyes away as if fascinated.

   The gaze she cast made Pei Zhi unbearable, and there was always a feeling that she was seducing him at any time.

   He unbuttoned the two coat buttons around his neck, waited for the car to enter the Mingxin parking lot, and stepped on the brakes before he took her into his arms.

   “Beautiful.” His fiery breath sprayed down, seducing her with beauty: “Do you want to kiss me?”

  Lin Jiao seems to be thinking a little.

   She looked into those deep eyes, and when he leaned closer, she subconsciously closed her eyes.

  The two lips were touching, and the temperature rose suddenly.

   In the cramped environment, a hoarse voice full of affection quietly entered her auricle.

  —“So good.”
