Jiang Se got up very early. She hardly slept last night. When Pei Yi said he would take her back to the Feng family to see Feng Zhongliang, she tossed and turned almost all night and fell into a drowsy sleep at around three in the morning.
I didn’t sleep well. I dreamed about many things in the past, my childhood, Hong Kong, and myself returning to the Feng family mansion.
When I opened my eyes, I picked up the phone next to the bedside table and turned it on. It was only about half past six.
As soon as she turned on her cell phone, short message alerts began to ring one after another. There was the box office information of "Beijing Events" sent by Lin Xiwen, and there were also movie data sent by Xia Chaoqun. She wiped her face, got out of bed, washed her face and brushed her teeth. When she finished cleaning up and opened the door, Pei Yi opposite her had not yet gotten up.
Contrary to her behavior of always closing the door when sleeping, his room door was never closed. The place where the chair was originally placed in his study was converted into a single sofa, and his tall body was curled up on the sofa.
When Jiang Se came in, the room was quiet. Although the curtains in the room were not drawn, it had rained all night last night, and without stars or moon, the light was very dim.
The blanket he was wearing fell onto the carpet, his legs were stretched on the armrest of the sofa, and he looked rather pitiful as he slept.
She felt a little soft-hearted and picked up the blanket but hadn't covered him with it yet. The person she thought was asleep suddenly reached out and hugged her legs, holding her and pressing her on top of him.
Jiang Se was startled and was about to struggle, but Pei Yi moved sideways and made room for her, trapping her firmly between him and the sofa.
The heater was on in the room, and she came over wearing only a thin cotton pajamas, but he wasn't wearing pajamas either, with his upper body naked. When she was surrounded by his breath, she wanted to struggle.
"Don't move."
Pei Yi's voice was a little hoarse, "I'm going to fall."
The sofa was small to begin with, and even for him it was barely enough for him to lie down on it. With one more person, it would become even more crowded.
Pei Yi squeezed in a bit, and Jiang Se was pressed against him so tightly that she had no place to hide. His legs pressed against her waist, and his arms around her waist were held so tightly that her breathing became a little disordered.
"Why are you up so early?"
As he spoke, his hands couldn't help but wander over her back, feeling the girl's graceful curves.
His fingertips tentatively lifted a corner of the hem, feeling the delicate and enchanting curve of her waist. She wanted to struggle, but he held her with his hands.
She is thin but not skinny, and her hands are full of soft fragrance when touched. She is the girl he has wanted to keep by his side since he was a child, and the girl he has always believed that he will marry when he grows up.
He had seen her appearance when she was young, and watched her grow up bit by bit. She had almost escaped from his grasp and was coveted by others, but now she was struggling in his arms.
The longing came so violently that his eyes were a little red, and his body was ready to go. In the end, she was kissed until she was dazed, but Pei Yi forced himself to roll off the sofa, and fell to the ground with a 'bang'. It felt like the fire in his body that he had ignited could not be extinguished.
He wiped his face, turned over and sat up, holding Jiang Se's hand, and begged her sincerely:
"Sese, let's get married first?"
She lay on the sofa, her head resting on her black hair, breathing softly in the darkness and reaching out to touch his face.
He reached out and held her soft hand, which was as soft as boneless, and his fingertips interlocked with hers.
Compared with before, his palms were much thicker and stronger. She remembered that last night, when he heard that Feng Zhongliang had fallen, he hurriedly booked a flight back to the capital to stay with her, holding her hand and giving her strength.
She remembered that she had won the Best Supporting Actress award at the film festival and wanted to share it with him as soon as possible.
The two grew up together as childhood sweethearts, and she watched him grow up slowly.
Pei Yi had just proposed to Jiang Se when he didn't respond, which made him a little disappointed.
In fact, he has proposed to her many times, but she has refused every time. Pei Yi knows her personality best. She is slow, calm and doesn't like sudden changes. She is used to this kind of life and may not have any intention of changing their current situation.
He is still too young and is still in school and hasn't graduated yet. What can he use to marry her
Pei Yi was aware of all this, but he still blurted out the proposal and even held out a glimmer of hope.
"Sese, marry me, I will treat you well, I will love you, and hold you in my hands..."
He originally wanted to tell her that he liked her, but halfway through, he remembered what Mr. Pei said. He had not yet achieved success or fame, while after she entered the entertainment industry, she had won an award at a film festival with her own ability.
Now he has not graduated yet and is still far away from home. He can't do what he promised at this moment. How can he marry her
He didn't want her to marry him in such a hurry. As for his current situation, he had to take leave even to return to the imperial capital. Even if she agreed to his proposal, he wouldn't even have time to prepare for the wedding. This was not what he had imagined.
In his heart, she is better than anyone else. He would rather suffer himself than let her suffer. If they really get married, he would like to announce it to the world instead of just getting married quietly and simply registering.
He had seen the advertisement she shot for Honghua. She wore a white dress and a veil, which was very similar to the scene in his dream when she married him in a wedding dress.
But he also wanted to hold her in his arms. That feeling made him extremely conflicted. As soon as he said this, he sighed and stopped talking.
Jiang Se waited for a while, and he didn't say anything. In the darkness, he lowered his head, spread out her palm, and rested his chin on her palm.
Overnight, some stubble appeared on his chin, prickling her palm, reminding her of his growth.
"Forget it, let's not get married yet."
Jiang Se sensed his conflicted mood. She changed into a comfortable position and looked at Pei Yi sitting on the ground. Their eyes met. The burning heat in his eyes could not be blocked even by the night.
She suddenly asked:
"Do you have a ring?"
"ah?"
Pei Yi raised his head, looking as if he hadn't reacted.
Jiang Se's mouth curved into a small smile. She had rarely acted impulsively and willfully. She always followed the rules, but now she couldn't help but want to be impulsive with Pei Yi:
"Do you have a ring? Ah Yi, if you want to propose to me, you must have a ring."
She smiled and looked at Pei Yi who was in a daze and couldn't recover.
He was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized what she said and jumped up excitedly:
"Ring, ring."
He chanted twice, turned around twice, and patted his forehead with his hand. He didn't have a ring. (To be continued)
