Endless Fall

  Chapter 46 Annoyed by her rash behavior

   Pei Zhi smiled but said nothing.

   He hugged Lin Jiao's waist and got into the car with her.

  Because there was a substitute driver, he raised the middle partition to isolate the front and rear.

   In a quiet enough environment, the sleepy Lin Jiao nodded his head and quickly fell asleep.

   Seeing that her head was about to hit the car window, Pei Zhi quickly stretched out his hand and took her into his arms.

   He looked at her peaceful sleeping face, put his palm on the top of her hair, and stroked it a few times.

   Xu gained a sense of security, she grabbed a piece of his collar and rubbed against his chest.

   Such reliance made Pei Zhi's remaining rationality wander on the verge of collapse.

  He bowed his head in a mysterious way, pressed his thin lips to her forehead, and dropped a kiss with the utmost tenderness.

   Lin Jiao, who had no feeling at all, leaned on her obediently, but his heart was beating like a drum.

   He suppressed the thought of wanting more, and probed the place he had touched, his fingertips seemed to be on fire, extremely hot.

   "Sir, it's here." The voice from the driver's seat pulled back his thoughts.

   Pei Zhi responded lightly, no longer recalling the touch that fascinated him, and the hotness of his fingertips also dissipated during this journey.

   "Lin Jiao?" He called to her.

  Lin Jiao, who felt something, trembled twice.

   She raised her eyes and looked at the face that was so close at hand, she couldn't help but startled.

   "Have you not woken up yet?" Pei Zhi rubbed the top of her hair again, as if smoothing a cat's fur.

   Lin Jiao realized that she was leaning against his arms.

   She hurriedly sat up straight, withdrew the hand that was about to reach into his collar, and the tips of her ears were visibly red.

   "Uncle, I didn't do it on purpose." She apologized weakly, having no confidence in her rash behavior.

   Pei Zhi was very generous: "It's okay." He controlled the corner of his mouth that rose, and said lightly: "It's excusable, don't take it to heart."

   "...Well." Lin Jiao pursed her lips.

   She straightened her hair, glanced at him secretly before getting out of the car, and was relieved to find that he really didn't care.

   Pei Zhi pretended not to see her little eyes.

   He still had the same calm look: "Don't forget to tell me when you get home."

  Lin Jiao smiled and nodded: "Okay."

   She turned her head and walked into the community, patted her forehead angrily, so as not to think about the unseen scene again and again.

   But the more it is like this, the easier it is to recall, even his figure appeared in the dream...

  *

   Sheng Heng on Monday was full of busyness.

  The sound of high heels and leather shoes resounded from the first floor to the roof, giving people an unspeakable sense of tension.

   Zheng Yi, who was holding two slices of bread, met Lin Jiao in the hall. He looked at her slightly pale expression: "Did you sleep well last night?"

   "A little bit." Lin Jiao took out the air cushion and pressed her eyes twice to cover the dark circles under her eyes.

   Zheng Yi thought she was worried about her work.

   He comforted a few words: "There is no need to be too stressful, many newcomers come here like this."

   "..." Lin Jiao smiled awkwardly.

   She didn't explain. She found a topic to chat with him a few daily routines. After arriving at the planning department, Manager Wu called him away.

   "Xiao Lin, are you still getting used to it?" Wu Xiuwen motioned for her to sit down opposite.

   "Pretty adaptable."

   "The matter of Sun Feiyu last time, don't take it to heart. The most important thing in the company is work, and making friends is second."

  Lin Jiao understood what he meant.

   is probably to let her do her own thing, and it doesn't matter if she is on good terms with Sun Feiyu.

"I see."

   "Just understand." Wu Xiuwen stopped.

   He took out a document from the chest of drawers: "Did Zheng Yi tell you about the assessment?"

   "Said."

   "Here is last year's product introduction. You make a plan based on the content and try to give it to me before Thursday."

   "Okay." Lin Jiao got up with the document.

   She strode out of the manager's room and happened to meet Sun Feiyu when she returned to her work station.

  The two lines of sight met in the air, the smile on Sun Feiyu's mouth disappeared, and her face instantly turned cold.

   Her eyes were full of hostility, as if she couldn't hide her emotions, or was too lazy to hide, so she showed it so brightly.

  Lin Jiao sneered, feeling hilarious.

   She had no intention of wasting time with such a person, and she passed him by under that gaze.

   "Lin Jiao, what did you tell her?" Feng Yunjie raised her chin in the direction of Sun Feiyu, looking disgusted.

   "Don't speak."

   "I thought she was bothering you again."

   "She's just asking for trouble." Lin Jiao unpacked the straw and inserted it into the sealing hole of the milk carton.

   Feng Yunjie snorted coldly: "Yes." She played with a ballpoint pen and glanced at her desk: "Are you going to start writing?"

"Um."

   "Then come on."

  Lin Jiao responded vaguely.

   She opened the folder, browsed the product information while eating breakfast, and did not forget to mark the key points.

  Although this is troublesome and time-consuming, it is more conducive to her to make a perfect copy.

   Pei Zhi: [Are you free at night? ]

   The message popped up on WeChat, causing Lin Jiao, who had been busy all morning, to stop her work.

   She moved her shoulders and neck twice, picked up the phone and started typing: [What's the matter? ]

  [A western restaurant opened near the Financial City. ] Pei Zhi posted two pictures of the signature dishes to tempt her: [Want to try it? ]

[think! But I don't have time. sigh.jpg]

  [You made an appointment with someone else? ]

  [No, I want to write a plan. ] Lin Jiao picked up a chocolate bar and ate it: [Why don't we switch to Wednesday? ]
