After Pei Yutang left, the kitten was left alone with Lin Yan and Pei Yucheng.
Although Lin Yan had acted as though Pei Yutang was invisible, she was still more relaxed and casual with him around. She suddenly felt that the atmosphere in the room had become more ambiguous now that only Pei Yucheng was with her…
“Ahem… Mr. Pei, it’s getting late. I’m going to sleep! You should sleep early too!” quipped Lin Yan.
The corners of Pei Yucheng’s mouth curled into a sly smile. “That early? Miss Lin, didn’t you say that every minute of the night was precious?”
Lin Yan almost choked in horror. The words had burst out of her because she had panicked earlier. Why did Pei Yucheng have such a good memory?
Pei Yucheng replied, “Miss Lin, are you regretting your decision to coax me into coming home?”
Lin Yan was speechless…
He sounded…
Lin Yan felt as though she was a scammer.
She coughed softly and glanced at the man. “How could it be? What I meant was that… every second and minute I spend with you, no matter what we do or do not do, is priceless!”
Pei Yucheng chuckled and stroked the girl’s head. “That’s right.”
Lin Yan heaved a sigh of relief. She had escaped yet another crisis.
“Will everything be okay after what happened tonight?” asked Pei Yucheng suddenly.
Lin Yan hesitated. “You mean, Zhong Xiaowei and Zhong Xuening…”
Pei Yucheng grunted in response.
Lin Yan scratched her head. “It’s fine! They won’t spread the news!”
The sisters hated her to the core. Why would they help her publicize that she was Pei Yucheng’s girlfriend? They would rather no one else knew about it.
“It doesn’t bother me… But I don’t want others to think that you’re blind…” Lin Yan muttered softly.
“I don’t mind,” answered Pei Yucheng.
He had never cared about others because they would never appear before him again.
“But I do!” Lin Yan looked grave and serious. “When I earn enough money, I will buy Summit Entertainment and Triumph Entertainment! I will be the most powerful boss in the entertainment industry! Who will dare point fingers at you when that time comes?”
Usually, one would look for a backer. However, she would rather be the backer instead!
Pei Yucheng raised an eyebrow. “Excellent goal.”
…
Lin Yan logged into her Weibo account when she returned to her room.
She updated it with her usual post and incredibly decided to make another new post.
She updated her account with a photo of the kitten and a caption. ‘I found a little kitten. Its name is Prosperous.’
Lin Yan then decided to read some news articles.
The racing competition would start the next day, so everyone online was talking about it.
There were indeed many avid racing fans in the country. However, if she were to put a racing car before them, she wondered how many would be able to even sound or act like a fraction of how knowledgeable they seemed to be online.
Lin Yan realized that she was indeed a magnet for scandals and criticism. She had garnered backlash once more.
