Chapter 65 Don't try to trick me when I'm drunk.

His fingertips touched the ends of her still wet hair, Pei Yu picked up the hair dryer that was placed aside, and said lightly, "I'll give you some time to think about how to confess to me."

The noise made by the hair dryer made everything around him blurry. Shen Zhiyi sat quietly, his long hair gradually becoming dry in his hands. He slowly ran his hands through his hair, as if he had endless patience.

She suddenly remembered her first impression of Pei Yu - it was not that night in Nanyuan.

The first time she met Pei Yu was actually when she had just entered the circle. Her agent took her to a cocktail party with many producers. She didn't like this kind of occasion, so she went out for some fresh air after staying for a while. She happened to see Pei Yu coming out of the elevator surrounded by a group of people.

The hotel lights were bright, illuminating his entire face clearly. The arrogance and pride that came from being in a high position for a long time were undisguised and were more eye-catching than his appearance. It made people realize in an instant that they and he belonged to two different worlds, and that ordinary people could not set foot in the world he was in at all.

Realizing this, Shen Zhiyi quietly retreated to the corner. Although she was not blocking the road, she subconsciously made this move.

At the same moment she stepped back, Pei Yu, who was walking in front, suddenly turned his head to look over here with a cold and nonchalant attitude. He almost didn't stop and quickly looked away.

She later learned his identity from a producer: Pei Yu, the leader of the Pei family.

From the producer's secretive attitude, she knew that this was a precious master who was impossible to mess with and difficult to serve.

But now, this precious master is blow-drying her hair.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

Pei Yu raised his eyebrows and turned off the hair dryer.

Shen Zhiyi blinked, "What kind of look is that?"

She turned her head to look in the mirror, but couldn't see anything wrong with her eyes.

Pei Yu turned her face back and stroked her drooping eyelashes. With a hint of interest and teasing, he said leisurely, "The look of someone wanting to kiss you."

There is such a look?

Shen Zhiyi was speechless, "Don't talk nonsense."

"Then tell me why you were unhappy just now?"

Pei Yu took her down from the sink, held her steadily, and casually mentioned, "Because of that phone call?"

He hadn't forgotten about it and insisted on getting an answer, but she didn't want to say it.

Shen Zhiyi was silent for a moment, and suddenly said, "I think what you just said is right."

Pei Yu was slightly startled, "What?"

His eyes dodged unconsciously, and Shen Zhiyi's voice was so low that only Pei Yu could hear it, "The look you just mentioned."

She repeated, "You're right."

So don't ask her for the answer, just do something else.

Pei Yu paused and looked at her, confirming that he had not misunderstood her. He laughed angrily, "You really don't want to tell me?"

In order not to tell the reason for being unhappy, I can take the initiative to tease him. I really don’t know whether it is a good thing or a bad thing.

"I don't want to say it," Shen Zhiyi buried her face in the crook of his neck, her voice muffled, and simply admitted, "I just don't want to say it."

She was already like this, so Pei Yu couldn't ask any more questions. He sighed softly, unable to do anything about her. He slowed down his voice and tried to coax her, "Only when I know why you are unhappy can I find a solution."

He tries every means to love and comfort the person he is dealing with, but he is unhappy about other people and other things.

Where he couldn't see, Shen Zhiyi looked confused and said nothing.

He won't be able to do anything this time.

After putting the person on the bed, Pei Yu did not continue to ask Shen Zhiyi because he saw that she did not intend to speak. He thought for a moment and asked, "Are you sleepy now?"

Perhaps because filming the night scenes had disrupted his schedule, Shen Zhiyi shook his head, indicating that he was not sleepy yet.

"Well," Pei Yu bent down and picked her up again, and went to the underground wine cellar, "Will you drink some wine with me?"

"Drinking again?" Shen Zhiyi was surprised. "Haven't you drunk enough today?"

I've already drunk so much at Minghua.

"Drink a little," Pei Yu began to walk down the stairs, reminding her, "Hold on tight." It was already late, but the housekeeper hadn't slept yet. Hearing the voice coming out of the room, he asked, "Where are you going, sir?"

"wine cellar."

Shen Zhiyi was still being held by Pei Yu like a child. She felt embarrassed to be caught by the housekeeper. She wanted to get down, but Pei Yu pushed her into his arms and said, "Be good."

She blushed as she lay on Pei Yu's shoulder, just in time to see the housekeeper turning his back and laughing, "...Don't hug me like this all the time."

"Hmm?" Pei Yu glanced in the direction of the housekeeper and understood, "No one is laughing at you."

Shen Zhiyi: "The housekeeper just laughed."

So shameful.

Pei Yu laughed a few times, "Then I'll tell her not to laugh anymore."

"..."

Is this the solution?

The constant temperature in the wine cellar was a bit low, so Shen Zhiyi wrapped herself in a blanket and watched Pei Yu pick out a bottle of white wine.

"Don't drink too much."

"Well," Pei Yu poured her a small half cup, "Can you drink well?"

"not too good."

Shen Zhiyi told the truth. She was used to drinking until she was slightly tipsy, but this time was different from the past. She was in Huating, a place she thought was safe, and Pei Yu was deliberately coaxing her, so she drank half a bottle without realizing it.

Pei Yu didn't drink much as he said.

He waved his hand in front of her eyes, "Are you drunk?"

Shen Zhiyi held his heavy head with both hands and answered irrelevantly, "Dizzy."

She lay on the table with her eyes half-open, "I'm sleepy and want to sleep."

He didn't dare feed her too much, so she shouldn't feel uncomfortable. However, she felt sleepy all of a sudden. Pei Yu didn't let her lie on the cold table, as she would feel uncomfortable the next morning if she slept like that.

"Come here, I'll carry you back to sleep."

When drunk, Shen Zhiyi was more well-behaved than usual and not embarrassed. She nestled in Pei Yu's arms and felt sleepy. When she was about to fall asleep, she heard him seem to ask her a question.

"Who called you?"

Her face was hot from the alcohol, and she felt the cool air and pressed against his neck. Shen Zhiyi gave her the answer without any preparation.

"Huo Heng."

It was expected, but when Pei Yu heard the answer from her mouth, he still felt indescribable.

A Huo Heng could actually cause her to have such obvious emotional fluctuations.

"So why are you unhappy?"

Is it because of Huo Heng?

After waiting for a while without getting a reply, Pei Yu lowered her head and found that the person who was dozing off was now looking at her. She shook her head and poked his Adam's apple. Although he was not quite sober, he was not drunk enough to be fooled.

"Pei Yu, don't try to trick me when I'm drunk."

She murmured softly, "You are so persistent."

What's the importance of that question?

Pei Yu pulled the corner of his lip, his smile was very faint and fleeting, and finally compromised, "Well, I won't ask anymore."

She was unhappy because of Huo Heng, but she refused to tell him the specific reason. Did it mean that he was the one who came between the two of them and had no right to know more?
Even if she wanted to tell him the answer now, Pei Yu didn't dare to listen.
