Chapter 95: Getting the wrong call and seeing a parent for the first time

  Chapter 95 Answering the wrong call to see the parents for the first time

   Pei Zhi stared at her face.

   Admiration and expectation were intertwined in her eyes, forming a captivating bait that touched his heart.

   "No wait." He hid the strong love that was enough to disturb his heart without showing any trace.

  Wait, he might die here.

  Lin Jiao lay on his shoulders and let him carry him into the master bedroom on the right side of the corridor, lying on the bed.

   She lifted the quilt and got in. Seeing that he was about to go out, she stopped him: "Don't you want to sleep with me?"

   "No, I'm going to take a shower."

   "Then don't wash it for too long."

   Pei Zhi seemed unable to promise her.

   He pushed open the bathroom door, washed his desires with the shower gel, and at the same time immersed himself in the hot air gushing out from the shower.

   Until the suppressed sound hit the porcelain wall, the surrounding fog gradually dissipated with time.

  The moment the quilt sank, Lin Jiao, who was too tired to open her eyes, subconsciously burrowed into his arms.

   She murmured, "Good night kiss."

   Pei Zhi stretched out his right hand through the back of her neck, used his arm as a pillow for her, and then wrapped her shoulders.

   He kissed the top of her hair, and when sleepiness and exhaustion both came over, he followed her to sleep.

  A night with each other is always peaceful.

  Two shallow breaths and the faint fragrance of the bedding filled their hearts, making the atmosphere more and more warm.

   "Buzz-buzz-"

  Xuyang that penetrated by the window sprinkled on the phone.

   Pei Zhi, who was not sober enough, narrowed his eyes to look at the caller's note, and pressed the answer button.

   He cleared his throat: "Dad."

   The deep male voice penetrated into the auricle, Lin Hongyuan was so startled that he almost didn't hold the phone steady.

   He repeatedly confirmed that the number was correct, and asked him in an 'interrogating' tone: "Who are you? What is your relationship with my daughter?"

   Pei Zhi suddenly sat up straight.

   He took off his phone and looked at it again and again, both nervous and annoyed, making him frown.

   "Hello uncle, I'm Jiaojiao..." He hugged Lin Jiao, who was leaning against his chest, and no longer hesitated: "Boyfriend."

"When did this happen?"

"This month."

  Lin Hongyuan couldn't explain clearly on the phone, so he simply gave a death order: "Come back for dinner at noon today."

   "Okay." Pei Zhi only responded.

   He gently left Ruanxiangyuhuai and went to the fitting room to change clothes, and at the same time asked Qu Shao to prepare gifts as soon as possible.

  It was ten o'clock after I packed up.

   Lin Jiao, who lost his warm embrace, also woke up leisurely when he turned back to the bedroom.

   Her eyes wandered from his well-trimmed hair to the suit: "Are you going out to talk business?"

   "No." Pei Zhi explained to her what happened.

   He put on his watch, his knuckled hand fell on the neckline, and as soon as he buttoned a few collar buttons, the tie between his neck was pulled.

  The sense of restraint drove him to lean over, and Lin Jiao, who was close to each other, climbed up on his neck, entangled with him as he did last night.

  The warm touch makes them addicted.

  Pei Zhi held the back of her head, her thick eyelashes cast a shadow on her cheeks.

   noticed that she was suddenly leaning forward, and he quickly hugged her to prevent her from falling.

   "I forgot to brush my teeth." Lin Jiao pursed her lips and lowered her head in embarrassment.

   Her cheeks were dyed thin, like flowers blooming in spring, inviting him to appreciate the beauty that only belongs to him.

   "I forgot, too." Pei Zhi rubbed her skin, pampering her eyes: "Will you despise me?"

   "How is that possible?" As if to prove it, Lin Jiao raised her chin and covered his lips again.

   Still holding her shoulders by those hands, she then stepped back and said seriously, "I really don't dislike it."

   Pei Zhi chuckled: "I believe it."

   He picked her up and headed to the bathroom, took out the toothbrush he bought for her earlier, squeezed toothpaste and handed it to her.

  The diffuse mint scent spreads in the air with the hot air sprayed from the faucet.

  Two overlapping figures were fighting in front of the mirror, and the laughter sent to the bedroom was swept up by the breeze and gradually slipped out of the glass window.

  *

   Adjacent to a villa area on the elevated second ring road.

  A BMW crossed the green road and drove into the European-style villa near the fountain garden.

  Lin Hongyuan, who was carrying tobacco and alcohol, just opened the door, and Mrs. Lin Fang Liu, who heard the movement, hurriedly probed into the living room to take a look.

   "I thought it was my baby's arrival."

   She handed the crab to the nanny, wiped off the water stains on her hands and left the kitchen: "Did you go out for a special trip and only bought a few of these?"

   "Isn't it enough?" Lin Hongyuan opened the bag and put two bottles of wine and three cigarettes on the coffee table.

   "I'm afraid her boyfriend won't be used to liquor."

   "It's good if you have a drink, how dare he choose?"

   Fang Liu smiled and said, "You started to show off before you became a father-in-law, and you're not afraid of scaring people away?"

   "After running, there is another one." Lin Hongyuan crossed Erlang's legs and raised his chin slightly: "There are a lot of people who want to chase after my sweetheart."

   The more fierce he said, the more Fang Liu could imagine the picture of him being kind to others.

   She didn't argue with him: "I'll go up and call Yanwen."

   "She's still sleeping?"

"Seems to be."

  Lin Hongyuan gave a light "um".

   He shook off the newspaper. He wanted to browse current affairs as before, but out of the corner of his eye he glanced at the door frequently, and he couldn't calm down.

   When the doorbell rang, he finally pulled out the 'needle' on the cushion that had been bothering him for half an hour.

   "Dad, Aunt Fang." Lin Jiao raised a smile, took Pei Zhi's arm and appeared before their eyes.

   They stepped on the mottled broken light, whether it was the color matching of their clothes or the sweetness of their eyebrows and eyes, they all showed their love for each other, and they looked even more right.

   Fang Liu dragged the dazed Lin Hongyuan.

   After he got up, he followed up to take the pile of gift boxes they were carrying: "Why do you still buy so many things?"

   Pei Zhi's expression was gentle: "I don't know what you two like, so I bought some."

   "Don't waste your money next time." Fang Liu greeted them to sit down, feeling inexplicably nervous.

  When the hot tea is placed on the coffee table, Lin Hongyuan, who has always been wandering in the world, can be recovered.

   He looked at the young man on the opposite side and asked, "What's your name?"

   "Pei Zhi."

   "The Shengheng Group?"

   "Yes." Pei Zhi sat up straight.

   Seeing his body tense, Lin Jiao held his hand between his knees and motioned him to calm down.

   She looked at Lin Hongyuan who looked indifferent: "Dad, do you have any business dealings with Sheng Heng?"

  Lin Hongyuan suppressed the shock that surged in his heart.

   "Yes." He picked up the teacup and took two sips: "I signed a contract for advertising at the beginning of this year."

   "Are you in the training industry?"

   "Estate."

   Pei Zhi searched his memory.

   He remembered the names of his parents that Lin Jiao had told him before he came, and he was almost certain: "Is Hongyuan Real Estate your company?"

   "Renamed." Lin Hongyuan leaned back.

   He relaxed and leaned against the soft pillow Fang Liu put on the back of his waist: "It's called Hongyun now."

  Lin Jiao puzzled: "Why did you think of changing your name?"
