Chapter 3: Miss Shen turns hostile as soon as she gets out of bed?
My head hurts.

Shen Zhiyi woke up with a headache. The feeling of weakness after being drugged seemed not to have completely faded away. She opened her eyes for a while before she was completely awake. When she saw the unfamiliar furnishings around her, she immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

She vaguely remembered that someone took her away after she was drugged. That person...

"woke up?"

The familiar voice sounded again. Shen Zhiyi raised his head nervously and happened to meet those dark and narrow eyes.

The man was sitting on a sofa not far away in a relaxed and lazy posture. He was only wearing a dark grey dressing gown, with a large area of ​​fair skin exposed. There were several scratches on his chest that belonged to a woman and were particularly conspicuous.

But the first thing Shen Zhiyi noticed was his face. He had clear contours, sharp eyebrows and eyes, and the corners of his lips were slightly raised in an arc that seemed like a smile, which made the person being stared at feel an oppressive sense of being stared down by a ferocious beast.

Shen Zhiyi recognized this face—Pei Yu, the person in charge of Pei’s group. Pei was not only a tycoon in the real estate industry, but also a leader in the entertainment and technology industries. He was the one who truly had the right to speak in the Beijing circle.

How could she be involved with such a person?
Shen Zhiyi's throat tightened and he moved uneasily, "Mr. Pei——"

Pei Yu propped up his chin, seemingly not noticing her nervousness at the moment, "Do you remember what happened last night?"

When he mentioned this, Shen Zhiyi felt embarrassed and nervous. She gradually remembered what happened last night and could still feel the hot breath on her chest.

She just wanted to get over this matter as soon as possible, "Remember... Thank you Mr. Pei for bringing me out. I will come to thank you another day."

It was hard to tell who took advantage of whom in this matter. Shen Zhiyi just wanted to leave here as soon as possible. She stood up hastily and wanted to go out, not caring that she was still wearing a loose men's nightgown.

"and many more."

When passing by Pei Yu, Shen Zhiyi was caught off guard and her wrist was grabbed. She staggered back two steps and fell into Pei Yu's arms due to the force of the hand, and immediately froze.

The already loose nightgown fell below the shoulders, with a few kiss marks dotted on it. Pei Yu raised his hand to pull the nightgown up, speaking in his unique slow tone, "Miss Shen, are you going to deny it after getting out of bed?"

He had a faint scent of agarwood on him, and mixed with his body temperature, there was an indescribable sense of ambiguity, which made Shen Zhiyi suddenly recall everything that happened last night——

"Why don't you follow me from now on?"

"it is good."

She actually agreed to such a ridiculous request!
"Mr. Pei, I..."

Shen Zhiyi tried to explain that promises made when the person was not sober were not valid, but Pei Yu seemed to have anticipated what she was going to say and deliberately asked, "Do you still have feelings for that scumbag?"

Huo Heng...

"Where's my phone?"

Shen Zhiyi suddenly calmed down. Huo Heng's behavior last night hurt her deeply. She and Huo Heng had a friendship of more than ten years, and she had given up a lot for him in the past three years. Although she did not expect to win his heart with these, she never thought that in Huo Heng's heart, she would not even be considered a friend.

Even if they were just ordinary friends, they wouldn't ignore her in a situation like last night, right?

Shen Zhiyi took the phone and saw more than a dozen missed calls, all from her agent. There was not a single call or message from Huo Heng.

Her heart was chilled to the extreme and she found it extremely ridiculous.

What had she been obsessed with for so many years? Huo Heng was no longer the same person he was when he was little, or perhaps the childhood memories she cherished were just a past that Huo Heng could not bear to look back on.

"it is good."

Shen Zhiyi looked up into Pei Yu's eyes and nodded quietly. Pei Yu was a big shot that she couldn't afford to offend. She had agreed to go with him last night, and it would be too frivolous to go back on her word now. Shen Zhiyi didn't want to be retaliated for offending him, and last night's absurdity had already made their relationship unclear...

This kind of big shot always gets bored with the old and loves the new, and will get tired of it after a while. Shen Zhiyi doesn't want his power and status, she just wants to peacefully end this relationship that should not have started in the first place, so as not to affect her career.

"Mr. Pei, can I leave now? I have an audition this afternoon."

Her answer was within Pei Yu's expectations. He curled his lips lightly, lifted his long legs and went downstairs, "Let's eat first."

Shen Zhiyi took two steps behind him and almost tripped over the hem of his nightgown. Realizing who the men's nightgown she was wearing belonged to, her cheeks flushed slightly and she asked hesitantly, "Mr. Pei, where are my clothes?"

She couldn't wear this to go out in public.

Thinking of the dark red dress she wore last night that obviously didn't fit her, Pei Yu said expressionlessly, "Throw it away. I'll have someone send you a new one."

That dress was actually a birthday gift from Huo Heng, so even though it was a size too big, Shen Zhiyi still cherished it very much.

It’s better to throw it away.

Shen Zhiyi waited in the room for a while and replied to his agent's message without revealing what happened last night.

"Ms. Shen," the door was knocked twice, and a young woman in a business suit came in. "Hello, I'm here to bring you some clothes. Because Mr. Pei needed them urgently and didn't have time to customize them, I only bought a few pieces at the clothing store."

Shen Zhiyi glanced at the tag and didn't know what to say.

The "ready-to-wear stores" she mentioned are some international brands, and the clothes are also the latest limited editions of the season.

She should meet Pei Yu less often in the future. She feels uncomfortable with this relationship that started unexpectedly and has such a huge disparity in status.

After changing clothes and going downstairs, Pei Yu was already sitting at the dining table. Shen Zhiyi ate quietly, and immediately asked to leave after finishing.

"Let the driver take you."

Shen Zhiyi: "No need, I can take a taxi myself."

Pei Yu raised his eyebrows, "You want to take a taxi at a private manor?"

Shen Zhiyi: “…Thank you.”

She also didn't expect Pei Yu to bring her to his private manor.

"Miss Shen."

Pei Yu spoke again when she was about to leave. He tapped the table lightly with his fingers, lowered his eyes slightly, and reminded her in a lazy tone, "I don't like that rubbish taking the title of your boyfriend."

He walked up to Shen Zhiyi, gently lifted her long hair that fell on her chest with his fingertips, leaned over and bit the kiss mark on her neck. He didn't use much force, but Shen Zhiyi could clearly feel the sense of danger coming from him. The fangs pressed against her skin were his warning.

But his voice was like a lover's whisper, "Remember to recycle the garbage."

Is this the desire of big men to monopolize their possessions? Shen Zhiyi always kept a distance from such people, not wanting to cause himself any unnecessary trouble, but now he stepped right into it.

Since this has come to this, Shen Zhiyi can only secretly tell herself that this is only temporary, and once the novelty period is over, she will no longer have anything to do with this person.
