No? Can I read the mind of my mortal enemy?

Pei Jingnian read the last sentence slowly.

It pierced through her eardrum, tickling her heart.

Shi Qiao turned around, took a half step back, and pressed herself against the wall.

She looked up, and the man's entire face was shrouded in backlight, yet his dark eyes shone with an eerie brightness.

His already sharp features became even more defined after his shower, and his thin lips were glistening.

He just stared at her like that, squeezing her until she had nowhere to escape.

"What kind of bet?"

Pei Jingnian raised an eyebrow. "How long has this bet been going on?"

Shi Qiao flinched slightly, "A week? Why?"

"It's been a week already, when are you going to start pursuing me?"

"So, those were all the moves you used before?"

Shi Qiao: ? ? ?

Didn't she pursue him?

She thought about it carefully, and realized that the latest version of playing hard to get didn't seem to have worked.

Instead, she was disturbed by Pei Jingnian's wet, puppy-dog eyes.

Stealing chickens will not lose rice.

No, so all the things she did before were completely useless in front of him?

Is kissing just about putting your tongue in each other's mouths and playing around with it?

Depend on!

Master Zhou was absolutely right.

Even if you climb into his bed, he won't acknowledge you because you're so arrogant!

She began to feel sorry for Master Zhou.

"Fine, Pei Jingnian, you think I didn't pursue you? Then what are you planning to do?"

Pei Jingnian reached out and hooked his arm around her waist. "Take turns."

"I'll pursue you."

Before seeing Shi Qiao cry because of him, he really had no intention of taking the initiative.

In other words, the situation is different now.

After playing chess for so many years, he finally succeeded in taking the first step.

The mask can be taken off; just peel it off slowly.

Honey, you keep doing the wrong thing. How much longer do I have to wait if this keeps up?

He couldn't wait a moment longer.

Shi Qiao tilted her head back and asked, "What's wrong, Pei Jingnian? Have you realized you like me, but you're too proud to admit it?"

Pei Jingnian pinched her cheek. "Who was that crying with snot and tears streaming down their face just now?"

The man's face loomed large in front of Shi Qiao, his two moles under his eyes resembling talismans, and a rare wicked smile playing on his lips, making him incredibly alluring.

Refined yet degenerate.

He then took the opportunity to pinch Shi Qiao's rosy cheeks, "Dare you?"

These three words were like a knife to Shi Qiao's Achilles' heel.

"Dare? What wouldn't I dare?"

But she has grown up and can no longer be led by the nose by Pei Jingnian.

"But please, whatever you do, don't fall in love with me!"

He was gritting his teeth, just like a kitten with its fur standing on end.

So incredibly cute.

I haven't been on it yet, but I'm sure you'll like it.

Shi Qiao is dying.

She tried to escape from the "cage" that Pei Jingnian had created, but found that he had no intention of letting her go.

"Alright, hurry up and reply to Aunt Lin, I'm going to sleep."

She instinctively reached out and pushed Pei Jingnian away, her palm touching his chest.

Without any obstruction, flesh to flesh.

She could even faintly sense the throbbing sound hidden deep within.

faster and faster.

Perhaps it was also her own.

But those pectoral muscles do feel nice to touch.

wrong!

Shi Qiao bent down and kicked the door shut with a bang.

Pei Jingnian lowered his head, his gaze lingering on the spot where Shi Qiao had just touched him.

Her hands are so small.

He leaned against the wall, feeling the constant, pulsating emotions within him.

"You're already this shy now, what will you be like in bed..."

"What should we do, honey?"

*

Time flies, and it's National Day again.

Aunt Lin said everyone should meet in the Maldives, so she and Pei Jingnian will fly there from Hong Kong together.

Shi Qiao sat on her suitcase, playing on her phone by the door while waiting for Pei Jingnian.

Although the bet was escalated that day, it left her feeling anxious and fearful for several days.

As a result, Pei Jingnian didn't make any moves, and the two of them could hardly even see each other.

I finally heard him make a sound; he came back in the middle of the night and collapsed onto the sofa.

[Jiang Youran: Shi Qiao, you'd better be prepared for this holiday. I have a feeling Pei Jingnian is planning something big.]

[Shi Qiao: My parents and his parents were both there, how could he possibly commit a crime against the rules?]

[Shi Qiao: Besides, in our parents' eyes, we're like siblings.]

[Shi Qiao: If we get involved together, wouldn't that be like... you know?]

[Jiang Youran: What do you know! Incestuous romance and youthful innocence are the most... irresistible!]

[Shi Qiao: Alright, alright, McDonald's, I really don't want to talk about you anymore.]

[Jiang Youran: Anyway, be careful. I've been observing the celestial phenomena last night, and I have a feeling something big is about to happen.]

[Jiang Youran: I'm begging you, please give me a live stream, okay? I can't even imagine how good it would be if you two made a pornographic film.]

[Shi Qiao: ...]

[Shi Qiao: Even if you want something, you have to wait in line.]

She heard noises coming from Pei Jingnian's room and uttered one last sentence.

[Shi Qiao: Alright, alright, wipe your drool and get your mind in order.]

[Shi Qiao: I hope you had a great time in Switzerland with your family during the National Day holiday.]

When I turned off the screen and looked up, I saw Pei Jingnian pushing a box that only reached his calves.

Next, the two of them went to the airport together.

This led to an extremely comical scene.

A petite girl was dragging a suitcase that reached her waist.

A large man was carrying a box that barely reached his kneecap.

Pei Jingnian reached out his hand, "I'll help you take it."

Shi Qiao watched Pei Jingnian's outstretched hand warily and quickly turned her suitcase around.

"No need, I can manage on my own."

Pei Jingnian's arm went directly through her shoulder, and his other hand wrapped around her waist.

Suddenly, Shi Qiao felt a sudden suspension in mid-air, and by the time she realized what was happening, she was already sitting on her own suitcase.

Pei Jingnian was pushed around like a child, bringing both himself and his suitcase into the airport.

Shi Qiao could only obediently hold onto the handle of her suitcase and walk through the sight of others.

Some children even climbed onto the suitcases and demanded that their parents push them.

She has completely lost face.

As soon as I sat down in the waiting area, a staff member immediately ran over to ask if I needed anything.

Pei Jingnian only ordered a cup of hand-ground coffee, while Shi Qiao ordered a cup of freshly squeezed orange juice.

The two didn't talk much.

It was a little awkward.

The man in front of me looked down at his phone, his pale white knuckles tracing the screen.

The slightly deep V-neck revealed a silver chain hanging around her neck, and her long legs were slightly outstretched, making people around her unable to help but take a second look.

She gently bit the straw, feeling a little restless.

How dare you say that about her?

He was talking about changing things, but he didn't actually do anything about it.

The landscape is hard to change, and one's nature is hard to alter.

It's because they can't bring themselves to do it!

A girl suddenly stopped beside them.

She had beautiful wavy curls, and her hair was well-maintained and shiny.

"Excuse me, are you two a couple?"

Shi Qiao shook her head immediately, her head bobbing like a rattle drum.

The girl looked at Pei Jingnian again. The man merely looked up, his gaze lingering on Shi Qiao for half a second before moving away.

"no."

The girl next to her immediately nudged her, and then looked at Pei Jingnian with a shy smile.

"Hello, I've been watching you over there for a long time."

"Can I add you on WeChat?"

Shi Qiao unconsciously bit down on the straw and crushed it.
