chapter 19

His Adam’s Apple Is So S*xy

This little girl had just teased him, and now she actually dared to look for him in such a dress?

Pei Yuchen suppressed the restlessness in his heart and looked at Ning Mengmeng, who was standing at the door with a glass of milk. She was at a loss because she accidentally pushed the door open. He quickly said, “That’s it. Let’s talk tomorrow.”

After saying that, he didn’t give the other party a chance to speak and hung up the phone.

“Come here.”

His expression did not change much. Could it be that she had seen wrongly? Ning Mengmeng was finally relieved. She took the milk and walked toward him.

“You… Going on a business trip tomorrow? How long will it take?”

Pei Yuchen’s originally calm and handsome face instantly darkened, and his sharp eyes instantly swept toward her.

Ning Mengmeng’s heart skipped a beat. He must have thought that she was asking for the exact time so that she could meet Su Zihang.

“Seven days.”

Pei Yuchen glanced at her coldly and casually placed the milk on the table. He was not in the mood to drink it.

Ning Mengmeng frowned and placed the cup by his lips. “Drinking milk will improve your sleep quality.”

Her stubbornness made Pei Yuchen’s eyes flicker. He looked up at the little girl who was staring at him seriously. His heart warmed up and he finally drank the milk.

Ning Mengmeng sat beside him and hugged his arm subconsciously.

Looking at the man’s still sour face, she began to coax him gently, “Why don’t I be your secretary after I graduate? That way, we can meet day and night. I’ll watch over you when you go to work, I’ll host meetings for you, and I’ll follow you when you go on business trips. That way, we can eat together, work together, and sleep together at night. My husband even pays me…”

She spoke beautifully. At this moment, she really looked forward to being with him all the time.

Pei Yuchen was amused by Ning Mengmeng’s expectant and fantasizing look.

He casually put down the cup in his hand and looked down at her. “Don’t you want to major in acting anymore?”

Ning Mengmeng’s heart skipped a beat.

When she thought of her good sister Ning Yushi, who was currently enjoying a good life in the entertainment industry, the corners of her lips curled up slightly. Her eyes gradually froze, and there was endless mockery in them. “Of course I have to learn, but it might not change in the future, right?”

The man carried her onto his lap, and she hooked her arms around his neck. She looked at his gaze as he sized her up, lowered her head, and gave his thin lips a light peck.

“I don’t know how to judge people. Other than you, no one has really treated me well. It’s just that they’ve done something to me before. If I don’t get it back, won’t I appear too magnanimous?”

Ning Mengmeng looked at Pei Yuchen pitifully. “Hubby, they’re all torturing me.”

Actually, Pei Yuchen had long known what kind of people they were. It was just that she was not willing to believe him and was so stubborn. It was useless no matter what he said. Now that she could recognize it, it saved him a lot of trouble.

Most importantly, his wife’s heart would return to him bit by bit, right?

Pei Yuchen was very satisfied. He held her slender waist with one hand and said, “Okay, let’s go back.”

Ning Mengmeng’s eyes sparkled. “Then you have to be my backer and support me!”

It would be a waste not to hug such thick legs!

Pei Yuchen’s eyes, which had been cold and gloomy earlier, now had a hint of a smile. He raised his hand and gently brushed the tip of her nose. “Okay.”

Ning Mengmeng finally laughed.

When she came back to her senses, she realized that their actions were exceptionally intimate. She looked at the man’s s*xy Adam’s apple that was so close to her, and the heat suddenly spread from her ears to her entire body.

Her heart skipped a beat. She subconsciously wanted to get up, but at this moment, the man suddenly wrapped his arms around her slender waist and lifted her up horizontally…
