The party behind her resumed its liveliness. It was only a matter of time before Peng Zezai got a divorce since he disliked so much. She leaned closer to the edge and looked down. The villa was taller than the average building. Suddenly, her body leaned forward and she felt closer to the ground.
“Ah!” she cried out in fear, her heart pounding.
Zheng Zilin grabbed her, and pulled her back. “What? Do you want to jump down too?”
She was afraid of heights to begin with, so when he grabbed her, her legs went limp and she stepped back. The back of her head hit something hard, and she looked up at Peng Zezai’s protruding Adam’s apple. She barely managed to stand up against him.
He pinched her slender waist. “How did I remind you?”
He said that he was ready to collect her corpse at any time.
“I remember it now.” She was so scared that her face turned pale.
“Look, you scared her so much that her face turned white.” Zheng Zilin leaned against the carved railing.
“Who was the one who scared her? Don’t you know?” Peng Zezai looked down at him. “Stand properly.”
“I’m not feeling well, so I won’t disturb you.” She squeezed out a smile and slowly walked away.
She quietly turned her head and glanced at the two handsome men. Their eyes were sparkling. Was this love?
Suddenly, Peng Zezai turned around and walked in her direction. Sigh! No, you’re going the wrong way! Just as she walked out of the building, Peng Zezai followed her.
“Are you following me? I saw that happy birthday was written on the hanging balloon. You can’t leave now, right?”
“I’m going to wash my hands.”
Wash his hands? She understood. He just helped her up a little. Could it be that he was a germaphobe?
The two of them went downstairs together and looked down from the spiral staircase. They also felt afraid. She held the handrail tightly and said calmly, “I’m going to touch up my makeup…”
“Brother Peng, you left early last night. If you leave early again tonight, can we still be brothers? If you really can’t stand the fact that the room is clean, hurry back,” Chen Mo said with a wicked smile.
“Did he misunderstand?”
“Yes.”
“Actually, I don’t hold your feelings against you at all. If you told me the truth, perhaps I wouldn’t have married you, and you wouldn’t be in so much pain. Don’t worry, I’ll take care of it. I hope it’s not too late.” Zhao Jia looked at him sincerely, “You have to bravely pursue your own happiness…”
He was silent.
