Chapter 85: Chapter 85: Woman, Are You Seduceing Me?

Qiao Rui fell silent, emitting an icy aura that made her shut her eyes to sleep as soon as she got into the car.

She planned to sleep all the way to Qingcheng to avoid any strange words from this man.

During the trip, Pei Liyan glanced at Qiao Rui several times. She leaned against the side of the car, slightly resting against the window, clearly still very defensive against him.

Pei Liyan was quite surprised. Normally, women were proactive towards him.

In his life, the two women who weren’t proactive were Ruirui and Qiao Rui.

He had even suspected for a moment that there was some connection between Qiao Rui and Ruirui, but then felt he was being overly suspicious.

Qiao Rui’s appearance was simply incomparable to Ruirui’s.

At the moment, with her eyes closed, her long lashes rested on her eyelids, thick and dense, a series of silhouettes even in sleep, she was as beautiful as a painting.

Her fair skin was like that of a porcelain doll, pure white and delicate.

Pei Liyan looked at her a few times, his throat moving, thinking of last night’s fervor, the soft touch, all so wonderful, just like that night with Rui Qing.

Thinking of Rui Qing, he had lost control that night too because they had both consumed something impure.

But last night, it was Ruirui who had consumed something impure, and he was sober, yet he still did not reject her.

Now, looking at her beautiful profile, Pei Liyan still felt a primitive urge surge within him.

He forced himself to look away and turned forward, after a brief hesitation, he said to Fang Mo, "Stop at the service area up ahead."

"Yes!" Fang Mo nodded.

Soon, they reached the service area, and Pei Liyan got out to smoke.

Fang Mo also went to the restroom, stretching his legs after getting out of the car.

Qiao Rui opened her eyes and glanced outside the car, where Pei Liyan stood not far away, biting on his cigarette, one hand in his pocket, as usual handsome and indifferent, squinting at the distant sunset while smoking—a picture of effortless sexiness.

The white smoke rose with each exhale, hiding his handsome face.

Indeed, this man was of the finest sort.

Qiao Rui inwardly sneered, but no matter how good his appearance, it wasn’t how he used to be.

Perhaps his character was always flawed, good looks making it easy to take advantage of girls, which only indicated a character issue.

Qiao Rui glared at him hard.

Suddenly, the man looked up, his profound eyes colliding with Qiao Rui’s in the car behind the glass, accurately catching her peeping gaze.

Qiao Rui’s heart tightened, feeling the embarrassment of being caught.

Pei Liyan extinguished his cigarette and walked to the car window, tapping on the glass.

Qiao Rui’s heart fluttered with panic, yet she still opened the car door.

Her voice was low as she spoke, "What is it?"

Pei Liyan’s lips curved into a faint smile as he asked, "Awake?"

"Hmm!" Qiao Rui responded, not looking at him again.

Pei Liyan’s hearty voice came once more, with a hint of laughter, "Do you want to go to the restroom? The next service area may be a bit far."

"No!" Qiao Rui replied indifferently, "I’m sleeping, don’t disturb me."

"Oh!" The man chuckled, with profound implications.

Qiao Rui, frustrated and agitated simply shut her eyes. Pei Liyan’s gaze did not vanish.

Suddenly, Qiao Rui startled, remembering something, she quickly opened her eyes to see the car door was still open.

She immediately closed the car door.

The man watched her through the car window, his gaze like a predator, as if he were determined to have her.

Qiao Rui was profoundly shaken.

After a short while, Pei Liyan finished smoking and got into the car.

Fang Mo raised the partition in front of them, creating a secluded space behind them.

She always felt somewhat awkward being alone with Pei Liyan.

She immediately tensed up.

Just then, Pei Liyan’s phone rang.

He took out his phone, glanced at it, and, without avoiding Qiao Rui, answered the call.

"Is there a problem?" Pei Liyan’s voice was deep as he spoke.

He Zheng chuckled, "Yeah, there is a bit of trouble. I looked into that project you wanted me to keep an eye on for the Qiao Family."

"The assessment result?" Pei Liyan asked.

"What’s the use of telling you now? The money has already gone into the Qiao Family’s accounts. All I can say is, you’ve invested too riskily in this project."

Pei Liyan was unperturbed.

"So, are you still hung up on Qiao Xiang, or are you wary of your old man?" He Zheng couldn’t figure out Pei Liyan’s thoughts anymore.

Pei Liyan frowned slightly and glanced at Qiao Rui.

Qiao Rui had her eyes closed, motionless. It was uncertain whether she was really asleep or pretending to doze off.

In fact, Qiao Rui had heard everything.

Her hearing was excellent. Hearing these words, she sneered inside. Still hung up on Qiao Xiang? So, there truly had been something between him and Qiao Xiang.

He Zheng waited a moment and didn’t hear Pei Liyan reply, so he asked again, "Hey, do you have feelings for Qiao Xiang or not?"

Pei Liyan huffed.

"Don’t scoff. If you had no feelings for Qiao Xiang, why make it so difficult for Qiao Liu? I’ve heard that Qiao Liu is deeply in love with you."

"Who told you that?" Pei Liyan furrowed his brows.

"I’ve seen it!" He Zheng said, "Isn’t it obvious? Elder Qiao’s attitudes towards Qiao Xiang and Qiao Rui are quite different now."

Pei Liyan had long been aware that Elder Qiao’s attitude toward Qiao Rui was not good, and he was quite looking forward to seeing how she would deal with it.

"That’s none of your concern," Pei Liyan said gravely, "If Qiao Rui isn’t capable, she has herself to blame."

He Zheng was taken aback and retorted, "Why are you suddenly so riled up? Your temper flares up like someone with unsatisfied desires."

"Get lost!" Pei Liyan cursed.

Suddenly, the car made an emergency stop and spun forcefully, tossing Qiao Rui into Pei Liyan’s arms.

The clear, potent scent of the man rushed into her nostrils, astonishing Qiao Rui.

Pei Liyan’s phone fell onto the carpet below, and although he was somewhat caught off guard, he caught Qiao Rui’s body firmly.

The distinctive fragrance of the girl’s body wafted over, and her exquisite form was now in his arms.

This unexpected situation caused Pei Liyan to freeze, his muscles tensing up instantly.

Especially in one place; it was truly unbearably uncomfortable.

And the next second, just as Qiao Rui was about to get up, the car twisted again, causing her to instinctively clasp Pei Liyan’s neck.

Both were taken aback, feeling a bit embarrassed.

Especially Qiao Rui’s eyes, dazed and wide, filled with confusion and shock.

Only then did Pei Liyan look forward, asking in a serious tone, "Fang Mo, what happened?"

"President, a flock of wild birds suddenly appeared," Fang Mo replied, "Are you two all right?"

"We’re fine," Pei Liyan said solemnly.

No emotion could be discerned from his voice.

Qiao Rui immediately tried to sit back in her previous position.

But the man’s hand clutched her waist and pulled her close, whispering word by word, "Was it intentional?"

Qiao Rui was taken aback. "What do you mean intentional?"

It was an accident; how could it have been intentional?

"Woman, you’re seducing me."
