As soon as Jiang se agreed, PEI Yi’s heart felt as if it had been lit up with fireworks. His eyes glowed.
PEI Yi’s heart was in his throat when he saw her hesitating just now.
It was not the first time she had rejected him. The French estate meant a lot to him. He had been running it seriously for two to three years. It was like a Land of Hope that he had personally opened up. As he had said, everything was ready and just waiting for her to move in.
Last year, he had been too impatient and caused her to refuse to fly to Paris with him. PEI Yi would not make the same mistake again.
He used to be so careful, put in so much effort, and forced her to be in his palm. What he was most afraid of was her spreading her wings and flying away.
PEI Yi felt tears welling up in his eyes the moment she nodded her head. He could not explain what that feeling was, but he felt a warm and fuzzy feeling in his heart. He was extremely satisfied, but there was also a tinge of sourness and sweetness. He felt as if he had finally fulfilled his long-cherished wish, and he could not wait to pull her away immediately.
“You can stay in France for a few more days. I’ll come to you after training.”
He held Jiang SE’s hand and reminded her repeatedly.
The movie could not attract his attention at all. His gaze was fixed on Jiang se. When he saw her smile and nod, he could not help but smile as well.
At that moment, PEI Yi had no idea how gentle his gaze was. The passion in his eyes was undisguisable, and it wrapped around Jiang se. She found it a little strange that she had never felt it before.
PEI Yi forced himself to wait until the air stewardess Jiang se played in the movie appeared again. Then, he pulled her away.
PEI Yi joined the Army on the 5th and had returned to the PEI family two days in advance to prepare. This time, PEI Yi had sent him into the Army not just to stay in the troops stationed in the capital but to leave the capital. He did not mention the specific training content, but it should not be easy.
After he returned to the PEI family’s residence, he gave Jiang se a call the night before he left. He was a little reluctant to part with her.
I might not bring my phone with me this time. I won’t be able to get through to you for the next month.
He sounded a little depressed. He had not even left the capital, but PEI Yi already felt that he was starting to miss her. He thought of her smile, her expression when she was reading her book and script seriously, her dazed look, and her shy gaze. It made PEI Yi feel that this training session was extremely long and difficult.
“Do you miss me?”
He could not help but ask. Jiang se replied, ”
“I won’t,”
Even though she could not see PEI Yi’s face through the phone, Jiang se could imagine how disappointed he must have been when he heard her words.
The corners of her lips curled up slightly. I’m just teasing you.
Jiang se turned around. In the exquisite crystal tank on the coffee table were two turtles that had grown a lot. They were crawling around. When PEI Yi was at home, he treated the two turtles like treasures. He would get people to send him all kinds of fish and prawns every day and personally cut them into small pieces to feed them.
She reached in and poked the turtle’s back twice. The two turtles were not afraid of people. Their silly looks made her laugh. She looked up and saw her reflection in the crystal tank. She smiled like a flower, and her cheeks were dizzy.
Jiang se was stunned for a moment. She had never thought that she would look like this when she thought of PEI Yi and chatted with him.
“Sese, Sese ~~”
She could not hear what PEI Yi said on the other end of the line. He called out to her a few times. Jiang se snapped out of her daze and looked at her reflection on the crystal jar. She picked up the call with another hand.”I’m here,”
“Yi, I miss you.”
These words were not as hard to say as she thought. She lowered her eyes. She did not need to look to know that the smile on her face was a little shy and sweet.
“Train well. I’ll be waiting for you in France.”
“Wait for me now!” Her words made PEI Yi’s heart soar. He clutched his phone tightly. Then, Jiang se heard him jump out of bed with a thud. Not long after, her father’s voice came from the other end of the line.
“Where are you going?”
“I want to go back!”
He ran over to open the door but was stopped by someone. Father PEI scolded him angrily,
“Nonsense! This is unacceptable, get back! You’re not allowed to go anywhere today. We’re leaving in a few hours, what are you doing, you brat!”
Jiang se could not help but laugh. He was still struggling. After a while, he put the phone back into his pocket. There was a rustling sound, mixed with the scolding of Mr. PEI and the voices of the PEI family calling for him.
The door was slammed shut. After a while, he said, ”
“My dad, second uncle, and third uncle dragged me in here, what should I do?”
He wanted to see her at this moment. He wanted to see her expression when she said she missed him. He wanted to hold her, put her in his pocket, and hold her in his palm all the time.
“It’s done,”
His tone was still a little dejected. Jiang se tried to comfort him, but he did not give up. The sound of a window being pulled open came from the other end of the phone. It sounded like he wanted to jump out of the window.
Someone was shouting from downstairs, ”
“You jump. I’m giving you two choices today. Either you get on the plane unscathed, or I’ll get someone to carry you up. I don’t believe I can’t deal with you!”
Jiang SE’s eyebrows twitched. She was a little unhappy.
“Sese sisi”
“Why don’t I drive over?” Jiang se stood up and wanted to change her clothes. However, he shook his head. How could he bear to see her going out alone at such a late hour?
After a few more sentences, he asked, ”
“What did you do today?”
He had only returned to the PEI family for two days, but he felt as if he had been separated from her for a long time. He didn’t know how he had managed to get through it in the past.
“I’ve arranged to meet director Zhao to discuss the new movie.”
At the mention of the new drama, PEI Yi suddenly recalled something.
“Oh, that’s right.” He smacked his head and looked down from the window. Father PEI knew him well and immediately called a few security guards over to install surveillance cameras in his room. PEI Yi’s eyelids twitched. He took a deep breath and said, ”
“Last time you mentioned the new movie, didn’t you say you wanted to go to the western suburbs women’s prison to see it? I mentioned this to ah dan, and he replied to me, saying that the arrangements have been made. Before you go, send him a message and he will find someone to accompany you.”
After Jiang se brought this up, she was extremely busy. Later on, she took on the role of “about I love you “, accepted the advertisement contract, and was delayed by her exams. Hence, she did not bring this up again. However, PEI Yi took it to heart and went to look for nie dan.
The NIE family had retired from the military in recent years. They had infiltrated the main internal security force and were in charge of armed police. When Jiang se mentioned going to the western suburbs women’s prison, it was the easiest for him to handle.
He had already informed PEI Yi about it. However, since Jiang se did not mention the new script, even PEI Yi had almost forgotten about it. It was only when she mentioned the new script that PEI Yi recalled it and brought it up again.
