Quick Transmigration: Hehe, the gluttonous girl is here!

The sunlight warmed the cobblestone path outside the villa.

Jiang Li was led out of the hall by Pei Shiheng.

Her palm pressed against the man's dry, warm palm, her fingertips unconsciously rubbing against the thin calluses on his hand.

Pei Shiheng turned his head and glanced at her.

A faint smile played in those deep chestnut eyes, as if softened by the summer sun.

"Baby, walk slowly."

His voice was soft, and his fingertips naturally tightened around her fingers, his thumb drawing a circle on the back of her hand.

Jiang Li looked up and glared at him.

"I didn't run away."

"Yes, but you've taken too big a step."

Pei Shiheng looked down at her legs, his tone serious.

"Are your legs still sore?"

Jiang Li's face flushed red instantly.

Honey! He asked you in broad daylight if your legs were sore!

This man has the exterior of a celibate nobleman, but at his core, he's a shameless, secretly horny weirdo!

"Not sour!"

Jiang Li gritted her teeth and quickened her pace.

"Don't say things like that in public!"

Pei Shiheng was left half a step behind by her, but he wasn't in a hurry and slowly followed.

His slender fingers caught her wrist again and pulled her back.

Jiang Li crashed into his chest.

The fabric of the shirt brushed against her nose, leaving a clean scent of cedar.

Pei Shiheng looked down at her, his long eyelashes casting a small shadow.

"Okay, that's all."

His tone was extremely gentle, as if he were coaxing a child.

But the hand holding her waist tightened, and his thumb rubbed against her waist through her dark clothes.

Jiang Li's ears burned, and after pushing him twice without moving him, she simply gave up struggling.

I can't push it open, I can't push it open every time.

Pei Shiheng released her, then intertwined their fingers and led her towards the parking lot.

Jiang Li caught a glimpse of his profile out of the corner of her eye.

A high, straight nose; slightly wavy, dark chestnut-brown hair, a little messy from the wind.

Her neckline was slightly open, revealing a section of her cool, fair collarbone.

It made him appear both gentle and noble.

Ming was wearing the simplest white shirt, yet he looked like he had stepped right out of a magazine cover.

You're peeking again.

The system spoke softly.

Stop pretending, you're practically glued to him.

Jiang Li rolled her eyes inwardly.

Is it illegal to stare at your boyfriend?

It's not illegal, but your drool is practically dripping.

【Humph! 】

When the two reached the parking lot, Pei Yubai jogged up from behind.

"Brother! Brother, wait!"

Pei Yubai was panting heavily from running, still holding his phone in his hand.

"Lu Chengye's side has been dealt with. He chased after them to the staff rest area, but was stopped by the resort manager and his bodyguards."

Lin Xiaoman locked the door and wouldn't see him. He stood in the hallway for ten minutes, his face ashen.

Pei Yubai couldn't help but laugh as he spoke.

"Hilarious, he tried to force his way in but was stopped by the manager."

The Lu family bodyguards also advised him not to make a scene, since there are many gossips in the industry.

He gestured animatedly as he spoke.

Pei Shiheng didn't stop walking, only giving a faint "hmm".

Pei Yubai leaned closer, wanting to continue the gossip, but when he looked up and met his cousin's indifferent eyes, he immediately shut his mouth.

The meaning in his eyes was clear: Are you done talking?

Once you've said your piece, get out of here.

Pei Yubai shrank his neck.

Pei Shiheng took out his phone from his pocket, opened a file, and sent it.

"Please follow up on the data regarding the three projects involving the Pei family's collateral branches."

You'll also be responsible for cleaning up after the banquet.

Pei Yubai was completely dumbfounded.

"Brother? It's my birthday! I'm the birthday boy!"

Pei Shiheng placed the phone in his hand, speaking calmly.

"The fact that you had the energy to run around watching the excitement just now shows that your abilities haven't been fully utilized yet."

"It's different! Watching the excitement is leisure and entertainment! Work is work!"

Pei Yubai was about to cry.

Pei Shiheng had already turned around and was leading Jiang Li forward.

"Send the information to my email before midnight tonight."

Pei Yubai stood there, clutching his phone, looking like a large dog abandoned by its owner on the roadside.

Jiang Li turned around and smiled at him.

That smile carried three parts sympathy and seven parts schadenfreude.

"Keep it up, Yu Bai!"

"Sister-in-law, stop laughing! You should control your boyfriend!"

Pei Yubai wanted to cry but had no tears.

Jiang Li turned around, leaned on Pei Shiheng's shoulder, and laughed, her arm shaking.

Pei Shiheng looked down at her smiling eyes, and the corners of his lips also curled up slightly.

He reached out and ruffled her hair.

"You find it funny?"

"Um."

Jiang Li nodded vigorously.

"Ah Heng, you're so cruel to your cousin."

"No, it's cultivation."

Pei Shiheng said slowly and deliberately.

Cultivate my foot!

System rant.

He clearly just wants to get rid of the third wheel so he can be alone with you.

Pei Shiheng: Sorry, I only have time for my wife.

Who does my cousin think he is? Just a tool.

Jiang Li suppressed a laugh and followed Pei Shiheng to a black car.

The man opened the passenger door.

A fluffy white creature jumped up from its seat, its big blue eyes staring intently at Jiang Li.

"Dumplings!"

Jiang Li's eyes lit up, and she bent down to hug the little ragdoll cat.

The soft dumpling nestled in her arms, making a gurgling sound, and nuzzled her chin with its little head.

"Good girl, good girl, did you miss your big sister?"

Tuanzi meowed and placed its paw on her collarbone.

Jiang Li was completely charmed by the cat, so she sat in the passenger seat with the cat in her arms and curled up to pet it.

Pei Shiheng went around to the driver's seat and fastened his seatbelt.

He glanced at Jiang Li.

The girl was talking to the cat with her head down, her collarbone delicate and beautiful.

Pei Shiheng looked away and started the car.

The car drove out of the mountain resort and slowly descended along the winding mountain road.

In summer, the mountain road is lined with lush greenery, and sunlight filters through the leaves, casting dappled patterns of gold on the car windows.

Jiang Li leaned back in her seat, holding Tuanzi, who had already fallen asleep in her arms.

After a moment of silence, Pei Shiheng reached out his hand.

His slender fingers gently covered her left hand.

His thumb gently caressed the curved surface of the ring.

"Baby."

"Hmm?" Jiang Li turned to look at him.

Pei Shiheng's gaze fell on the road ahead, his profile clean and gentle.

"Would you like to start your honeymoon early and have a very long one?"

Jiang Li was stunned for a moment, and it took her two seconds to react.

"Honeymoon?"

"We're not even married, so how can we have a honeymoon?"

Pei Shiheng did not answer immediately.

His lips curved into a smile, and he lowered his eyes to glance at her hand.

The couple's rings shimmered with tiny sparkles in the sunlight.

"We can postpone the formal recognition for now."

His voice was low and gentle, like it was coated with honey.

"But I'll give you the life that's rightfully yours, ahead of time."

As he spoke, his gaze traced the girl's features inch by inch, as if he wanted to hide her away.

Previously, Lu Chengye could take her around to play.

She's his now.

He wanted to erase every trace left by Lu Chengye, bit by bit.

Fill it with better memories that belong exclusively to him, Pei Shiheng.

Jiang Li looked at the undisguised love in the man's eyes, and her heart melted completely.

How come this man always manages to say the most alluring things in such a tender tone at times like these?

The system's voice even softened.

In other words: The wedding isn't even happening yet, but the wife's benefits are already in place.

This man is too good; I'm completely hooked on his system.

"You..." Jiang Li muttered softly.

"Did you plan this all along?"
