Rescue the hero who was imprisoned by the cannon fodder sister

Chapter 149 1nd Choice

Jiang Mi supported his chin and thought about it.

Although Zhou Niantang did not directly say what happened between her and Pei Shi tonight that made her look so sad.

But she was not wrong. Since Pei Shi appeared tonight, the way he looked at Zhou Niantang was definitely not that simple.

It is definitely not as simple as what Zhou Niantang said, that the two of them cannot be together just because they are sworn enemies.

But Zhou Niantang didn't say anything, and they didn't continue to ask, because they all saw that she seemed very sad.

Asking further questions at this time is like rubbing salt into someone's wounds.

A few people comforted her and let her go wash up first.

That night, Zhou Niantang lay on his bed in the dormitory, tossing and turning, and could not fall asleep until dawn.

She couldn't understand why Pei Shi had such a huge psychological gap.

Also, why should she be sad? Even if Pei Shi had that kind of feeling towards her, her reaction, no matter what it was, shouldn't be sadness.

It's as if he's regretting something.

She thought back to when they were in the utility room and he said he didn't need to look away.

So at that time, he had already made it clear that he didn't like Yun Zhi, but she didn't listen and foolishly thought that he was just being stubborn or something.

That night, many thoughts ran through her mind.

Finally, at dawn, she cleared all her thoughts and just hoped that Pei Shi could listen to her last words.

That is to keep distance from each other.

For something like what happened last night, even if he didn't help her, she would have found a way to resolve it. She didn't do it at first because she didn't know it would get so bad later.

Later, the situation got out of hand and she wanted to speak out, and Pei Shi appeared.

As a result, when she wanted to expose her father's name later, she had to consider Pei Shi's presence and was afraid that this matter would reach Zhou Yunqi's ears.

Originally, Zhou Yunqi was extremely sensitive about her contact with Pei Shi.

But she thought that Pei Shi must be so angry that he must have cursed her eight hundred times in his heart.

Because even if she didn't expose the truth, her words about keeping a distance would definitely hurt his self-esteem.

My thoughts started to go out of control again.

Finally, when the clock struck half past seven, she quietly got up, packed her things, and left the dormitory.

The consequence of not sleeping all night was that when she returned home, Aunt Zhang, Uncle Sun, and Luo Luo were all shocked to see her pale face and the blue color under her eyes.

"Second Miss, you didn't stay up all night, did you?" Aunt Zhang asked her.

"Yeah, I'm used to my bed, so I couldn't sleep, so I came back to catch up on some sleep."

No one suspected anything, so they let her have breakfast and go upstairs to catch up on some sleep.

Perhaps it was because he was in a familiar environment that he didn’t think too much, or perhaps his body had really reached its limit. After lying on the familiar big bed and tossing for more than half an hour, Zhou Niantang finally fell asleep.

Yun Zhi was busy for the whole morning. Their technical department has been very busy recently. The development of the new project is regarded by the entire company as the most important project for the next year, and it is also an important factor in whether she can be promoted.

As usual, she went to the president's office with the data report from the previous day.

After knocking on the door, she waited for the person inside to say "come in" before she stepped in.

"Boss Pei, this is yesterday's report."

Pei Shi took the document from her hand, lowered his head and began to read it carefully.

A few minutes later, he closed the file and said, "The progress is good."

According to usual practice, Yun Zhi should have gone back by now, but she was still standing there, hesitant to speak.

"Anything else?" Relatively speaking, Pei Shi's attitude towards her was actually much gentler than that of other people in the company.

But he was in a bad mood today and just wanted to work.

Yun Zhi took a deep breath and said, "Last night, I saw you and Tang Tang together in the hospital."

After she finished speaking, she began to observe Pei Shi's expression, but found that he looked normal, without any sense of urgency about his secret being discovered.

This made Yun Zhi even more confused about him. When did he and Zhou Niantang get together?

Thinking back to the last time in Zhou Niantang’s house, the two of them were locked in the utility room.

When Zhou Niantang came out, his eyes were red, and Pei Shi's reaction was also strange.

Yun Zhi was not happy. Ever since she bumped into him by accident last night, she had been worried about Zhou Niantang.

"When did you two get together?"

They held hands last night and were so close to each other. In Yun Zhi's eyes, only people who are together can have such intimate actions.

"Not together." Pei Shi answered her.

In fact, if it were anyone else, he wouldn't be willing to explain, and he doesn't need to explain to anyone.

It was only because Yun Zhi was the only friend with whom he could discuss private matters other than business that he was willing to answer her questions patiently.

Yun Zhi was surprised: "Not together? Then why did you..."

She wanted to say, if you are not together, then why are you holding her hand!

The worry in her heart gradually deepened, and she had to remind him: "I remember I advised you that no matter how you wanted to take revenge on Zhou Yunqi, don't involve Tangtang. She has never done you any wrong."

When she said this, she was gritting her teeth.

Pei Shi was puzzled for a moment, "So what?"

"So, if you want to take advantage of her or tease her, stop it."

Pei Shi sneered: "Do you think so?"

"Ah."

Yun Zhi is a very clear-headed person, she will not easily believe that love will happen suddenly.

Especially between Pei Shi and Zhou Niantang, two people who were unlikely to encounter such a situation no matter how you looked at it.

She knew that Zhou Niantang had always been gentle and simple, but she also had to admit that Pei Shi was indeed an excellent person.

But along with his outstanding appearance, there is his unfathomable heart. No one has ever been able to truly peek into what he is thinking.

People like this have been constantly fighting with Zhou Yunqi in the business world over the past year.

How could he truly love Zhou Niantang?

"I'll only say this once. I don't need to sacrifice my own time, energy, and emotions to scheme against Zhou Yunqi."

Pei Shi's voice became somewhat cold and hard.

"I want to take revenge on Zhou Yunqi. I will only fight her to the death on the project."

What he didn't say was that he had wavered in this idea countless times during these days.

The only remaining rationality told him that between him and Zhou Yunqi, it was not the case that Zhou Yunqi would be willing to make peace with him just because he was willing to stop.

It seems like they were born to be mortal enemies.

No matter what he thought of Zhou Niantang, this matter seemed to be stuck and was an unsolvable problem.

And Zhou Niantang's attitude last night made him understand that no matter what Zhou Niantang thought of him, she would never hurt her sister because of him.

He will never be Zhou Niantang's first choice.

Just like his parents abandoned him, he would never be anyone's first choice.
