Chapter 56 Lip marks on the shirt.

The tailgate inside the car was raised, and the driver drove diligently and responsibly without making any unnecessary noise. Shen Zhiyi had to lower her head and look at Pei Yu, but she was too embarrassed to admit that she actually didn't understand why she suddenly brought up this topic.

Silence spread between the two of them, but the atmosphere was not oppressive. There was a kind of tranquility that was stained by the night. Pei Yu suddenly chuckled, pinched the back of her neck, and gently rubbed her plump lower lip with his fingertips. With a clear understanding of her thoughts, he slowly said, "If you don't say it, I will take it as your consent."

Knowing how difficult it was for her to take the initiative to say these things, Pei Yu was silent for a while, "Qin Xiaoran told you that, what else did she say?"

His life experience and the romantic affairs of two generations of the Pei family have long been nothing new in this circle, but no one dares to mention it openly in a gossip tone. The only one who can easily talk about these things about the Pei family is Qin Xiaoran. Even her brother is taboo and doesn't want to mention it.

Pei Yu did not avoid it, but he thought there was no need to bring it up.

"Nothing,"

Inexplicably, the information about Pei's father's several wives was concealed, and Shen Zhiyi shook his head.

"If you want to know anything, you can ask me," Pei Yu said, "There is nothing that cannot be told."

Shen Zhiyi still shook her head, indicating that there was nothing she wanted to know.

She was somewhat reluctant to know more.

Not noticing her strangeness, Pei Yu lazily closed his eyes and talked about something else, "Accompany me on a business trip tomorrow and go to the island to play for a few days, okay?"

Accompany him on a business trip?

Shen Zhiyi refused subconsciously, "I still have to film——"

"I've discussed this with the director. Your role can be postponed. It won't affect anything."

I don't know when he was ready to take even this into consideration, and he didn't give Shen Zhiyi any reason to refuse. But she was still hesitant. She had only worked hard over the years and had never been delayed by trivial matters.

Knowing she was hesitant from her expression, Pei Yu placed her hand on his chest and said casually, "My heart hasn't been feeling well these past few days, so it's a good time to go for a checkup."

Half of the medical industry on the island belongs to Pei's family, so it makes sense to go to the hospital there for a follow-up examination, but the problem is that hospitals are everywhere, and using this as an excuse is purely to lure Shen Zhiyi.

Appropriate display of weakness would make her soften her heart. Pei Yu understood this too well. He did not care whether the means were despicable or not, he only cared about the result.

Sure enough, Shen Zhiyi was shaken. She stroked his chest through a thin shirt. She had discovered that the round scar on his heart should be a gunshot wound, but she had never asked about it.

"How many days?"

Meng Fansheng is not an easy person to talk to. The filming was so intense, and no one knew why he agreed. Shen Zhiyi felt uneasy and was always worried about him.

"Two days."

Knowing her personality, Shen Zhiyi knew that borrowing her for two days was too much and knew how to handle the situation properly, so he agreed.

The next morning, the private plane landed at the Hua Ting tarmac. The housekeeper prepared several kinds of fruit snacks that Shen Zhiyi liked to eat, and even packed her luggage for her. "Take advantage of this break to have fun."

Shen Zhiyi stays in Huating almost every day, and the housekeeper is well aware of how busy her work is. The island has pleasant scenery and is a great place for vacation.

She nodded, but didn't dare tell the housekeeper that she still had a script in her bag, otherwise it would be confiscated.

She opened the script on the plane. She attached great importance to the opportunity to be the protagonist and always suspected that she was not doing well enough. She read the script over and over again, showing signs of being obsessed.

Pei Yu saw the notes she made on the script, held her hand, and raised his eyes, "Do you like your work so much?"

Hearing this teasingly, Shen Zhiyi smiled awkwardly, with a hint of worry on her face.

Knowing what she was worried about, Pei Yu flipped through a few pages of the script and said in a firm tone, "You acted very well. You performed very well in those bad dramas before. This time it will be even better. Believe in Meng Fansheng and believe in yourself." If she just wanted a trophy and resources, Pei Yu could offer them to her with both hands, but she didn't. Pei Yu understood what she wanted and knew that she had her own pride. She was by no means a weak and incompetent person, otherwise she would not have remained silent for so long without giving up.

Perhaps it was because his confidence was gained from being at the top of the pyramid, and when he spoke with a firm tone, people would always be inexplicably convinced. Shen Zhiyi's heart beat a little faster, "Have you seen the play I acted in?"

"Surprised?"

Pei Yu smiled faintly, his words showing undisguised preference, "I only watch your part."

I can't appreciate the plots, I just want to see her, her in motion, in all kinds of poses.

Her every frown and smile were the material that constituted his dreams.

"I don't know," Shen Zhiyi whispered, "I thought no one wanted to see my part."

The characters were unlikable, the plot was illogical, and she herself couldn't bear to watch it again.

"Plenty," Pei Yu pinched her fingers and took the script away while she was distracted. He didn't abduct her here just to get her to work in another place.

The plane landed at noon. Pei Yu had an appointment, so Shen Zhiyi followed him to the same hotel and booked a private room to eat alone. The hotel was close to the sea, and she could see the beautiful scenery from the window. The food was also quite appetizing, so she ate quietly.

On the other side, Pei Yu was chatting with a partner, and the topic of the chat was also about this business. The other party was a little surprised. He didn't expect Pei Yu to come in person. This kind of thing was usually handled by Secretary Qin.

"The scenery is nice," Pei Yu took a sip of wine slowly and didn't eat much, "Let's go out for a walk."

Upon hearing this, the other party immediately recommended several tourist attractions and intentionally or unintentionally revealed that he was free and could act as a tour guide.

Pei Yu refused, "It's not convenient."

The other party was stunned and didn't understand what was so inconvenient.

As the meal was coming to an end, Pei Yu stood up and left for a short while.

But he didn't go to the bathroom, but went upstairs to another box.

Shen Zhiyi was following Wang Feifei's instructions to record her daily life and was concentrating on taking pictures of the food until a hand appeared in the corner of the frame.

She looked up, "Are you done?"

Glancing at her phone screen, Pei Yu nodded, "Almost."

Shen Zhiyi had almost finished eating. There was too much food and she couldn't finish the rest. Pei Yu handed her some tea to rinse her mouth, then kissed her and held her in his arms, leisurely admiring the sea view outside the window for a while.

He played with the ties around her waist, "There's a fireworks display at the port tonight, do you want to see it?"

"Tonight? I heard that the fireworks display only happens once at the end of the year."

"It's early," Pei Yu only cared whether she wanted to see it or not.

"Okay," Shen Zhiyi said, "I'll wait for you at the port in advance."

After staying in the box for a while, Pei Yu returned to his seat, and his partner followed him half a step behind. Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of a particularly abrupt red spot on the collar of his snow-white shirt.

Having been in the entertainment circles for a long time, he could easily recognize that it was a lip mark that was accidentally left there.

Suddenly I understood the previous sentence "It's inconvenient."
