After a tragic death and rebirth, the iceberg president turned crazy
Chapter 214 Familiar Stranger
Pei Yan read out Lin Man's name.
She turned around subconsciously, and an exquisite and gorgeous gift box was suddenly placed in front of her.
Pei Yan looked at her with dark eyes and said in a low voice: "I'll give it to you."
For a moment, Lin Man was stunned.
She looked at the pattern on the box, her body stiff as she stood there.
"What's this….?"
Pei Yan looked downcast as he opened the box. Inside was the Moonlight Bracelet that he and Jiang Xu had been fighting over today.
Lin Man was a little surprised, "You didn't give it to Gan Tian?"
He spent 15 billion just to make a beautiful woman smile, but now he looks like this, does Gan Tian not want him?
As soon as Lin Man said this, Pei Yan's face suddenly turned gloomy.
Sometimes he really wanted to cut open this woman's brain to see if it was filled with water.
"This is your size. She can't wear it."
Pei Yan's eyes were always on Lin Man, and he naturally noticed a hint of panic and a pretense of calmness in her eyes.
She stretched out her hand and pushed away the box that Pei Yan placed in front of her, and turned her head away, "Gan Tian, you're giving me something that she can't wear? Pei Yan, you're still the same as always..."
"Lin Man." Pei Yan interrupted her lightly.
"I, Pei Yan, would never give someone something they don't want. You know clearly that this bracelet is for you, but you are unwilling to admit it? What's the point of deceiving yourself?"
"Pei Yan!" Lin Man felt a little panicked as she looked at Pei Yan's pressing gaze. "Who is the one who is deceiving himself? We are divorced. I have a boyfriend. Why did you give me this?"
Pei Yan lowered his head, his dark eyes fixed on Lin Man, as if he wanted to see through her.
"It seems you have remembered it."
Lin Man turned her head away and said nothing.
When they first got married, Pei Yan never came home and the Yuanshan Villa often had power outages. She was very scared, so she hid in the corner of the room and painted this picture in the faint moonlight.
At that time, she was so pitiful and naive, hoping to get a little light from something. Little did she know that this was just her fantasy of escaping from reality and pinning her hopes on God when she was on the verge of despair.
No matter how many wishes she makes, she still has to bear it all by herself in the end.
Lin Man chuckled calmly, "I didn't expect that Mr. Pei would have such a childish day."
She felt it was a bit ironic. She was just afraid of the dark, but she could do nothing about it, so she drew all these on paper, praying that the magic brush Ma Liang could hear her wish and give her a lamp to hang on her hand. Pei Yan actually thought that she liked this thing and specially found a glowing bracelet for her.
Villa in the distant mountains.
The girl hid timidly behind a pillar, watching Pei Yan come in, ran over and grabbed his sleeve, but did not dare to use too much force.
"Can you please not leave today? There are frequent power outages here, and the whole mountain is pitch black at night. I'm scared..."
She looked at Pei Yan with wet eyes, but when she met his cold look, she lowered her head in fear.
"Lin Man, how old are you?"
Pei Yan frowned and didn't buy it.
Lin Man refused to let go. “It’s really scary. There are ghosts at night. Some people say that the people who were killed during the construction came back to take their lives!”
"Nonsense!" Pei Yan's face was very gloomy, and his tone was also a bit harsh, "Let go."
Lin Man timidly let go of her hand. Pei Yan tugged at his tie, took off his coat and left it aside, walked back to the living room from the door, and with a gloomy face took out his laptop to handle official business.
Lin Man withdrew his thoughts, curled the corners of his lips slightly, turned and left.
Pei Yan's voice sounded from behind, "Where are you going?"
Sometimes Lin Man really wanted to roll her eyes at Pei Yan, "Of course I'm going back to the company. President Pei doesn't think I'm as free as you?"
There's time to play the drama of two men fighting for one woman here.
Pei Yan stared at Lin Man with a dark gaze. Since Lin Man woke up from suicide, her behavior was like a different person, but she remembered the painting again...
At this moment, Lin Man had no idea that she had been suspected by Pei Yan.
"Have dinner with me."
Pei Yan's tone was very gentle, but it was this look that made Lin Man feel a chill down her spine.
He looked at Pei Yan warily, "What do you want to do?"
"It's just a meal, not you. Why are you so nervous?"
Lin Man didn't understand what Pei Yan was trying to do, but she didn't want to respond to Pei Yan.
"Boss Pei, I think you misunderstood. I can't eat when I see your face."
Lin Man didn't want to argue with Pei Yan anymore, so she turned around and left.
Pei Yan reached out to stop her, "Don't you want Ji Ze to come back safely?"
"What?" Lin Man frowned.
He quickly took out his cell phone and called Ji Ze, but the phone was turned off!
Ji Ze would never turn off his phone for no reason. In an instant, Lin Man looked at Pei Yan with suspicion!
"What did you do to him!"
Pei Yan had a smile on his lips and threw the box worth 15 billion aside without worrying about whether the bracelet would break.
"What do you think?"
Pei Yan completely tore off his disguised gentleness.
For him, this bracelet was just a tool to ease the relationship with Lin Man. When he realized that the memories of the past could no longer impress Lin Man, he immediately changed his strategy.
He threatened and tested Ji Ze's safety, forcing her to submit and thus achieving his goal.
"Pei Yan, you are so despicable!" Lin Man gritted her teeth.
"Excellent."
Pei Yan raised his hand and looked at the watch on his wrist. "I'll give you three minutes to think about it."
"Pei Yan!" Lin Man became more and more flustered as she listened to the countdown set by Pei Yan!
"He and you grew up together, and you were so cruel to do that to him. Do you have any heart as a man?"
Pei Yan faced Lin Man's emotions calmly, unmoved, "I don't have a heart, he has been dead for a long time." He spoke in a stern voice.
"Have you made up your mind? I have a meeting tonight." He chuckled, but his face was a little cold. "I have been waiting for you in vain, but I am afraid that you will be hungry and blame me for not feeding you."
He looked teasing, but Lin Man was a little stressed.
"Pei Yan! You always bring up those old, rotten things. Is that interesting?"
Pei Yan snorted coldly, opened the car door but did not move.
Lin Man knew that he was waiting for her to get in the car.
But Lin Man looked at Pei Yan's dark gaze and didn't want him to succeed!
When the situation became stalemate, Pei Yan asked calmly, "Are you stalling for time on purpose?" He chuckled, "Don't you believe me, or do you think Ji Ze has great magical powers and think I'm lying to you?"
Lin Man glanced at Pei Yan.
She got into the car, and after she sat down, Pei Yan also got in and sat next to her.
The familiar car was speeding on the road. It seemed that this was the first time that she and Pei Yan rode in the same car after their divorce. She suddenly thought of a word, a word that she had not been able to experience personally before, but now she had a deep understanding of.
"A familiar stranger."
"What nonsense are you talking about again?"
Pei Yan couldn't understand why this woman became weird after waking up from her suicide.
