Chapter 227

Late at night.

Jiang Lan tossed and turned on the sofa. She stared at the clock on the wall. It was eleven o'clock. Lu Jingchi probably wouldn't be back tonight.

She turned over and was about to go to bed when suddenly there was a sound from upstairs.

Jiang Lan raised her head and looked upstairs. She listened carefully and found nothing, so she lay down again.

But the next second, she heard the sound again, like someone pushing the glass.

Jiang Lan frowned. She got up and walked upstairs. She thought she forgot to close the window.

Arriving in the bedroom, she opened the door and was about to reach out to turn on the light, but suddenly two hands grabbed her hand.

The sudden appearance of the figure made Jiang Lan freeze up in fright. She instinctively opened her mouth to scream, but the air was stuck in her chest and she couldn't make any sound.

As usual.

A chuckle came from the side: "I thought you could scream out."

And this sound frightened her even more than when someone suddenly grabbed her hand just now.

Jiang Lan immediately tried to free herself from the hand, but was pulled tightly. She grabbed the door frame and tried to run out.

There was a huge disparity in strength between the two, and Jiang Lan was naturally no match for him. He was easily dragged back, and the next moment the door was kicked shut.

The room was dark and Jiang Lan was unable to communicate with him. She leaned against the door almost in despair.

Pei Qingsheng turned on the light, and his smiling face appeared in Jiang Lan's sight. He had no intention of breaking into a private house, and he still smiled openly.

Jiang Lan bit her lip, not daring to express her anger.

She gestured: What are you going to do?

Pei Qingsheng pressed her against the door, put his hand on her ear, and said with a smile: "It's been too long, come and see my sister-in-law."

Jiang Lan looked away, not believing his lies.

She put her ear against the door, hoping to hear some noise from outside, but unfortunately there was nothing.

"Are you waiting for eldest brother to come back?"

Jiang Lan froze, and then heard him say: "He is with Xia Yan now, and maybe he has fallen asleep in Wenrou Township. If you count on him, you may not be able to count on him."

Jiang Lan looked sideways at him, with a smile in his eyes, but all Jiang Lan saw was danger.

"Not angry? What a good dog." As he spoke, he touched Jiang Lan's cheek with his fingers.

Jiang Lan bit her lip tightly, already expecting that she would be slapped next.

But no, I heard Pei Qing say again: "Can you really swallow this? Do you need me to help you take revenge on them, huh?"

Jiang Lan didn't want to communicate with him.

Pei Qingsheng helped her take revenge, but she didn't believe a word of it. Cooperating with him was tantamount to seeking the skin of a tiger.

Moreover, if I break into the villa in the middle of the night, nothing good will happen.

Pei Qingsheng pinched her chin, turned her head, and looked at the red marks on her face, "Jiang Lan, you really disappoint me."

Those red marks and scars have faded away, like two strips of light-colored lipstick, adding a bit of color to her pale cheeks.

Jiang Lan couldn't bear it, so she gestured again: What on earth are you going to do?

Pei Qing raised her lips and said, "Tell me what he said to you."

Jiang Lan looked at him puzzled.

Pei Qingsheng explained patiently, "It's about the company."

Jiang Lan's eyes flashed, and she somehow remembered Lu Jingchi saying that he was going to be kicked out of the board of directors. Lu Jingchi had never told her about the company before.

But now I told her.

Her heartbeat was getting faster and faster. Could it be that he had calculated that Pei Qingsheng would come to find her, so... he was testing her again?

Seeing the change in her eyes, Pei Qing laughed and said, "It seems he really said something to you."

She suppressed the strangeness in her heart and shook her head.

"Don't tell me?"

Pei Qingsheng's fingers slid from her face to her neck, and the other hand holding her waist had already slipped into her pajamas.

Jiang Lan struggled.

The hand on her neck pinched her neck and pressed her against the door, "Don't be so excited, I'm not interested in you."
