Boss Pei Is Sleeping?
“Boss Pei is asleep?!”
He said it out loud without any control.
The entire journey had been quiet. Pei Yuchen was suddenly woken up by his voice.
Ning Mengmeng looked at the man angrily. “I told you not to make a sound!”
Sun Mo subconsciously covered his mouth. His eyes were filled with apology, but the apology was quickly dispelled by horror.
Ning Mengmeng looked at Sun Mo strangely. Normally speaking, Sun Mo was a person who knew his limits. However, he had woken Pei Yuchen up just now. Moreover, when she shouted at him, his apology was quickly replaced by shock.
Could it be… What was the secret behind this?
Pei Yuchen sat up straight and his expression instantly returned to its previous coldness.
Sun Mo coughed lightly, and there was some guilt in his eyes. “Boss Pei, I’m really sorry. I was just too surprised.”
Pei Yuchen didn’t say anything, but Ning Mengmeng sized them up, feeling puzzled.
What was going on?
“Get out of the car.”
Hearing Pei Yuchen’s calm voice, Ning Mengmeng nodded quickly. It was already past 10 o’clock. She wondered if Aunt Qi had finished cooking.
The few of them walked in and Ning Mengmeng saw Aunt Qi’s figure. Ning Mengmeng quickly asked, “I’m so hungry, Aunt Qi, is the food ready?”
Aunt Qi smiled and nodded.
“Alright, there’s one more dish left. I heard a noise and came out to see if it was you guys. It’ll be ready soon.”
Ning Mengmeng smiled and nodded. After changing her shoes, she dragged Pei Yuchen in to wash hands.
“You’re back so early this time. Have you finished your work?”
Pei Yuchen nodded. “Yes.”
The two of them sat at the dining table. Ning Mengmeng sized him up and saw that he still looked a little sleepy. Her heart ached. Even with a body made of iron, he had to sleep.
Soon, Aunt Qi served the dishes and the two of them ate together. Pei Yuchen would pick up food for Ning Mengmeng from time to time, and Ning Mengmeng would pick up food for him. The atmosphere between the two was very good and they didn’t say much. After they finished eating, Ning Mengmeng pushed him into the bathroom. “Take a shower.”
Pei Yuchen raised his eyebrows, thinking that she did not like the smell on his body. After all, there were people smoking outside.
When he came out of the shower, he saw Ning Mengmeng already holding a hairdryer. Ning Mengmeng drooled at his figure that was wrapped in a towel as he walked out. She said with some difficulty, “Sit.”
She looked like she was going to dry his hair. Pei Yuchen walked up to her and said, “I’ll do it myself.”
Seeing Pei Yuchen’s hand reaching out, Ning Mengmeng avoided the hairdryer and emphasized again, “Sit.”
Pei Yuchen’s heart warmed but he did not say anything. He sat on the chair. As his hair was very short, Ning Mengmeng dried it not long after. Then, she pushed Pei Yuchen onto the bed. “Rest.”
Pei Yuchen didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. So after all this fuss, she was asking him to sleep?
Ning Mengmeng glanced at him and put one hand on her waist domineeringly. “It just so happens that I’m a little sleepy too. I’m going to take a shower. You sleep first. If I come out and see that you’re not in bed, you’re dead!”
Pei Yuchen was helpless, but he still said softly, “I still have some things to take care of. I just got some rest.”
Ning Mengmeng frowned and looked at him unhappily. “Are you kidding? Do you know that you haven’t slept for several nights? What’s the use of sleeping in the car?”
