Quick Transmigration: Hehe, the gluttonous girl is here!

In the dimly lit room, the girl on the bed had a peaceful face.

She wore a nightgown that fit her perfectly, with a thin blanket covering her collarbone and a small section of her neck exposed.

Pei Shiheng stood there for quite a while.

Then, the door opened and then closed.

The room returned to quiet.

Jiang Li breathed a sigh of relief.

He's gone.

【Um. 】

The system spoke calmly, "Baby, go to sleep. We need to meet up to watch the sunrise tomorrow."

[The system.]

【Um? 】

He said he liked me.

【I know. 】

He even asked me if I was afraid of him.

【Baby, are you scared?】

Jiang Li thought about it for a long time.

The mountain breeze outside the window was quiet, and the night pressed down on the entire mountain.

【No.】

The system paused for a moment, then spoke with unusual calmness: "That's enough. Go to sleep."

......

In the corridor, the glow of the wall lamps quietly spread across the floor.

Pei Shiheng stopped by the door, not leaving immediately.

Two figures quietly emerged from the shadows.

These are two foreign men, wearing black suits, standing upright.

Pei Shiheng did not turn around.

He switched to Italian when he spoke.

His tone was low, still elegant, but with a cold, authoritative edge that was more pronounced than during the day.

"I have high hopes for her."

"No man is allowed to come near, especially Lu Chengye."

"We can't let her find out."

These two people are not ordinary security personnel at all.

Pei Shiheng is the most outstanding heir of the Pei family in Beijing's elite circle in this generation.

The maternal lineage originated from the old aristocracy with a rich Italian heritage.

The bodyguards who accompanied him were all top-notch fighters who had undergone the most ruthless selection process by the family.

There were six people in total.

They split into three shifts, lurking around Jiang Li 24/7.

This is Pei Shiheng.

He absolutely would not allow any accidents to happen to the prey he had set his sights on.

Jiang Li had no idea.

From the day Pei Shiheng set his sights on her,

She had already been completely drawn into an impenetrable territory by this seemingly gentle and harmless man.

Pei Shiheng took one last look at the closed door, then turned and disappeared into the other end of the corridor.

The two men retreated back into the shadows, silent and still.

4:30 a.m.

The horizon was still shrouded in a thick, dark hue.

A knock came at the door in the hallway.

Qiao Yue called from outside the door, "Lili, are you awake? Hurry up and get up to watch the sunrise!"

In the room, Jiang Li lifted her head from the soft pillows.

She rubbed her eyes, threw off the covers, and sat up.

I feel very refreshed; the soreness from yesterday's hike has completely disappeared.

Aside from a faint, lingering scent of cedarwood.

I have no other discomfort.

Jiang Li rolled out of bed, changed into a burgundy tracksuit, and tied her hair into a high ponytail in front of the mirror.

The face in the mirror was fair and radiant, showing no signs of anything amiss.

She opened the door and saw several people already standing in the corridor, all of whom were her friends who had gone hiking with her the day before.

Then she spotted Pei Shiheng at a glance.

He was wearing a white casual jacket over a white shirt, and he was standing in the middle of the crowd talking to people.

Her eyebrows and eyes were gentle, and she had a faint smile on her lips. She looked fresh and clean.

It's hard to believe this is the same man who was so frantic and trembling with humility on her last night.

Jiang Li paused for a moment.

[The system.]

【Um? 】

Did he come with a different face?

No, it's the same face, it's just that the acting is too good.

Pei Shiheng turned his head and his gaze fell on her.

Those eyes were gentle, without a trace of superfluous emotion.

He walked towards her, his tone incredibly natural.

"Jiang Li, did you sleep well last night?"

His voice was gentle, his gaze concerned, and his lips held just the right amount of warmth.

It's as if nothing happened last night.

It was as if he hadn't said those things as she had.

Jiang Li stared at his face for a few seconds.

Just hours ago, this face was buried in her neck, panting, saying, "Do you like me?"

Now it's reversed as if nothing ever happened.

Row.

Jiang Li blinked and smiled.

"It was alright, but I had a rather unsettling dream."

She spoke casually, as if she were talking about something insignificant.

Pei Shiheng's eyelashes drooped slightly.

The movement was so slight that it would have been impossible to detect if Jiang Li hadn't been observing him.

The next second, he looked up, his tone still gentle.

"It's normal to not sleep well in the unfamiliar mountain environment."

After he finished speaking, he glanced at the people in the corridor and raised his voice slightly.

"The temperature difference between day and night is significant on the mountain, so please remember to bring a jacket to avoid catching a cold."

The others quickly responded and went back to their rooms to get their clothes.

Jiang Li gave a thumbs up in her heart.

"Tongzi, did you see that?"

[I saw it. This man has the mental fortitude to be a secret agent.]

[That blink just now was so subtle, a normal person wouldn't even notice it; his control over the situation is just too strong.]

[Honey, to be honest, you seem a little interested, aren't you?]

She was indeed intrigued by Pei Shiheng's pretentious manner.

She wanted to see how Pei Shiheng planned to act next.

How can I continue to steal her boyfriend away?

After all, he went to such lengths last night; he can't keep pretending to be a gentle senior forever.

Once everyone had gathered, they marched in a grand procession toward the mountaintop viewing platform.

The sky was not yet fully bright, and the air in the mountains was chilly.

Jiang Li walked in the middle of the group, chatting casually with Qiao Yue.

Footsteps sounded behind me.

Lu Chengye walked quickly to Jiang Li's side, wanting to walk alongside her.

"Ginger and Pear".

His voice carried a hint of frustration.

Before he could get close, he heard footsteps behind him.

Lin Xiaoman actually followed behind.

She was wearing an oversized coat that clearly didn't fit her, and she looked frail and helpless.

Goodness!

The system mentally complained.

These two are together again; this is going to be interesting.

Jiang Li didn't even glance at Lu Chengye; she walked straight ahead.

Lu Chengye panicked and reached out to grab Jiang Li's wrist.

A sudden cell phone ringtone shattered the silence of the early morning.

Everyone unconsciously turned around.

Lin Xiaoman stopped in her tracks and hurriedly answered the phone.

"Feed? Little brother? What are you doing...?"

A boy's crying could be heard from the other end of the phone.

Lin Xiaoman's face turned frighteningly pale in that instant.

Her hand holding the phone was trembling, and her lips moved slightly.

He wanted to say something, but couldn't utter a single word, and could barely stand.

Lu Chengye reacted the fastest, stepping over to support her arm.

"Xiaoman, what's wrong?"

Lin Xiaoman gripped his sleeve, her voice trembling.

"My dad went to the hospital to ask my mom for money, and my mom got so angry that she had a seizure... She's in the emergency room now..."

Lu Chengye's face immediately darkened.

The people around fell silent, and the atmosphere became somewhat awkward.

Lu Chengye released Lin Xiaoman's hand and turned around.

He looked at Jiang Li, his gaze filled with obvious hesitation and apology.

Jiang Li stood still, her expression calm.

She could even guess what he was going to say next.

Lu Chengye ultimately did not apologize to her; his gaze turned to Pei Shiheng.

"Shi Heng".

Pei Shiheng turned his head, his gaze sweeping across Lu Chengye's face.

Then it fell on Lin Xiaoman, whom he was supporting, and then moved to Jiang Li.

The entire process takes no more than three seconds.

"Shi Heng, please take care of Jiang Li for me. I'll escort Xiao Man down the mountain."

After he finished speaking, the entire group fell silent.

Qiao Yue subconsciously looked at Jiang Li.

The others exchanged glances and remained silent.
