89 Heartache

Actually, when Jiang se had picked up PEI Yi’s phone the previous night, she had already seen it.

However, she somehow felt a little guilty when PEI Yi mentioned Feng Nan.

She lowered her head and didn’t look at him, so he found another topic to talk about.

“Why did you decide to enter the entertainment industry?”

The two of them had only been separated for half a year. In this half a year, she had changed a lot.

With her family background, status, and upbringing, she didn’t have much interest in the entertainment industry in the past. The people she interacted with were simple and not complicated.

An elder like Feng Zhongliang would look down on the celebrities in the entertainment industry.

However, she had become Jiang se and entered the entertainment industry.

There was only one simple sentence in the information, but PEI Yi felt as if his heart was being dug out and his lungs were being scratched.

He couldn’t wait to get to know her, to know everything that had happened to her in the past six months, and to be closer to her.

PEI Yi’s burning gaze was fixed on her. Jiang se could sense it, so she turned to look at him helplessly.

“Focus on driving.”

He immediately smiled so much that his eyes were curved, and he nodded desperately.

“Alright,” he said.

His golden hair moved along with his nod. Jiang se remembered that his hair used to be of good quality. It was black and shiny. However, she did not know when he started to like dyeing his hair this ostentatious color. He had been laughed at and scolded by old master PEI several times, but he refused to change. In the end, he could not do anything about it.

She couldn’t help but purse her lips. She leaned her head against the car window and recalled his previous question.

“I’m short on money, so I’m in.”

She recalled the time when the ” pretense to reality ” crew was having a green wine at ruiji hotel. She had met Dai Jia in the hotel lobby and had a conversation with her.

When Dai Jia had asked him why he had not asked her why she was willing to be Zhao ruoyun’s substitute, she had answered her own question and said that she was short of money.

This question had the same effect as PEI Yi’s question. She answered with a smile. When she finished speaking, she recalled Dai Jia’s expression at that time and could not help but smile even more. However, PEI Yi’s heart ached when he heard that and he stepped on the brakes.

Under the inertia of the car, the two of them leaned forward. Fortunately, the seat belt tied her body, so she did not bounce up.

She turned to look at PEI Yi in surprise. He was gripping the steering wheel so tightly that the veins on the back of his hands were popping out.

His brows were tightly furrowed, and his lips were pursed tightly. The muscles on his cheeks twitched, and he was clearly gritting his teeth.

“What’s wrong?”

PEI Yi was reminded of her current situation. She was no longer the young lady of the Feng family who did not have to worry about food and clothing. Instead, she was the step-daughter of the du family and was living in a very poor environment.

Her daily life was not only about reading, studying, and doing what she loved to do. She might also have to worry about some trivial matters.

When he was happy that there were new changes in their relationship, and the trouble of her being five years older than him no longer existed, she had no choice but to enter the entertainment industry for money.

A person who had never been worried about money was now smiling and answering his question, ” “I’m short on money, so I’m in.”

He took a deep breath and stopped the car by the side of the road before asking, ”

“Do you like this line of work?”

His tone was a little dejected, and his expression was strange. Jiang se gave him a strange look.

“It’s alright,”

He was even more uncomfortable.

In reality, compared to her life in the past, Jiang se felt that she might prefer the present.

She had something to do every day, so she no longer had to repeat it.

Although she had been well-educated in the past, these were not for her to have a more complete life in the future. Instead, it was more like placing a beautiful vase full of flowers to increase the value of the vase and sell it to someone who was willing to pay a price in the future.

If she hadn’t been reborn, she could imagine her life in the future. She would follow the Feng family’s arrangements, get in touch with Zhao junhan, marry him, and facilitate the marriage of the two families.

Her knowledge and the way she spoke would only increase her bargaining chips in the Zhao family in the future.

However, after her rebirth, many of her previous knowledge finally had a place to be put to use and was no longer just a decoration.

PEI Yi turned to look at her. The clothes she was wearing were a little old and simple. She did not have any accessories on her.

His heart was bleeding, but he forced a smile on his face.

call me the next time you go to the nine Dragon Hall. Don’t go alone.

“There was a girl’s birthday in the dormitory last night.” “Didn’t you say you were going to eat?” she asked helplessly.

He started the car again and asked, ” “When’s your birthday?”

“You didn’t find out?” she seemed a little surprised.

He had found “Yingluo,” but he wanted to find a topic to talk to her about so that she could talk to him more. He shook his head and lied through his teeth.

“No, I didn’t,”

why did you think I would investigate you? ”

Jiang se seemed to have been waiting for him to ask this question for a long time. When she heard his question, she smiled sweetly. “Because I’ve also investigated you. You haven’t forgotten about the ruiji hotel, have you? You beat up Yao Xiang from the production team, so I went to the police station to investigate.”

She thought that the answer she had prepared was flawless, so she added, ”

that’s why I recognized you immediately last night. I even mentioned your friends ‘names to the service staff in the nine Dragon Hall before I found them and sent you home. Didn’t they tell you? ”

The corners of PEI Yi’s mouth twitched, and his eyebrows twitched.

“No, I didn’t,”

...

He pretended to believe her, but why had he never realized that Feng Nan could be so cute before? When she lied in a serious manner, her smile seemed to melt his heart. He hesitated again and again, and he couldn’t bear to look away from her face. He wanted to take out his phone to take a picture of her expression at this moment.

Jiang se finished the prepared answer. When she saw that he did not have any doubts as if he believed her, she heaved a sigh of relief. Her expression became much more at ease.

It seemed like he really didn’t check the surveillance cameras last night. Otherwise, he would have asked about what happened in the bathroom last night.

She felt much more relaxed and no longer resisted PEI Yi’s lunch.

In the afternoon, they agreed to have lunch at a place that served Guangdong food. She used to come here often.

The chef’s soup here was very good, and some of the Guangdong specialties were also very authentic. However, the price was also expensive, and it was very difficult for ordinary people to book a table.

When PEI Yi brought her over, Jiang se did not think too much about it. It was not her first time here with PEI Yi. In fact, when the restaurant staff led them to their usual room, she even picked her favorite corner and sat down.

She used to like coming here not only because the food was delicious, but also because of the location.

The two of them sat in a private room separated by a hollowed-out screen. The corner of the sofa was made of floor-to-ceiling glass, through which they could see the scene outside.

She could smell the faint aroma of the food in the restaurant. Sometimes, she liked to bring a book, order a cup of tea, and eat some snacks here. Even if she couldn’t eat them, she liked the feeling.
