Chapter 682: Is Your Brother Better Than You?

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Su Ji did not wait and clicked into the news. It was a very long article. Not only were there photos, but there was also a long interview video.

The owner had a mosaic on his face and was wearing a small vest. His hands were handcuffed and placed in front of him.

The reporter asked him what he thought about being arrested today, whether he was expecting this, and whether he knew that it was illegal.

Even the owner’s voice had been changed.

He cried bitterly, but it sounded a little funny no matter how one listened to it, and it really did not attract anyone’s sympathy.

At first, the boss was quite remorseful and sincere, but later on, he accidentally told the truth.

“This is really strange. I’ve always been very low-key. I was selling well before, but I don’t know who I offended. Suddenly, my nest was destroyed. My hard work...”

He was full of complaints.

Su Ji narrowed her eyes.

Then, the reporter interviewed the person in charge of this operation.

When Officer Wang’s image appeared in front of the camera, Su Ji confirmed her guess.

This matter had offended the Pei family’s master, so the owner could only obediently submit to the law.

The discussion below was especially heated.

Some thought that the boss was funny, some thought that Officer Wang was handsome, and some guessed how many years he would be sentenced to.

Su Ji glanced at it and saw a comment below:

[ “I’m looking to buy one at a high price! Whoever has it please dm me!” ]

Su Ji let out a small sigh and closed the book next to her. He tidied up the corners to ensure that there were no creases and stuffed it back into the bookshelf.

Now that their hideout had been destroyed, the book was out of print.

In a sense, this had value.

It was a long summer day, and the sky only turned dark at seven o’clock in the evening.

In the Pei Corporation’s CEO’s office, a long tube-shaped sensor light lit up.

There was no meeting at Pei Corporation today, and the other executives had also left work early, but Pei Huai did not.

He was leaning against the desk, one hand in his trousers pocket, the other hand on his phone, his long legs on the ground, and the vest on his back.

His gaze fell on the wide French window opposite him, but his mind was not on the night scene that was gradually lit up by thousands of lights, but on the phone calls that were answered or made.

Ever since Shen Mu received an email from Dong Xiyou this afternoon, he had been in this state.

The topic was related to work.

His jawline was taut, and his brows were furrowed.

Perhaps it was because she had a good appetite, she felt sleepy easily.

At night, Su Ji fell asleep in a daze. She seemed to have fainted and did not

know how long it took before she woke up.

The blanket was not warm, and there was still no one beside her. The room was still the same as it was before she fell asleep. The air conditioner was turned on at a very low temperature, and the lights were off, so it was extremely dark.

She took out her phone from under her pillow. She looked at the time and saw that it was already past 10 0’clock at night. n()O--V/-e(-l.(b.-I..n

She yawned, turned around, and turned off the air conditioner.

She still didn’t want to get up, so she simply fell back into the blanket.

He usually arrived home at 6 0’clock sharp, but today, Pei Huai came back late.

She thought that she would be fine after sleeping, but it didn’t seem to have any effect.

The aftereffects of reading that book were still there.

In addition, the air conditioner had been too low when she was sleeping. Even with the blanket over her, she was still cold all over.

She desperately wanted something that could warm her up...

The timing was just right. Just as she was about to reach her limit, the sound of a fingerprint unlocking the door rang out from the outer room.

Then, Aunt Gong’s voice came. A man asked her in his usual low and mellow voice if she was asleep.

Hearing this made her heart go numb.

Aunt Gong said that she was probably asleep. She was in the room, so she didn’t dare to come in and disturb her.

Then came the sound of footsteps and the deliberately soft sound of the doorknob turning.

A moment later, the door was pushed open from the outside, and the warm light from the corridor broke in.

His tall figure walked in. The light outside elongated his figure and landed on Su Jit s body, which was hidden under the blanket.

He took off his coat and untied his tie. The scent on his body was very similar to hers. It came from the same shower gel, and it was a faint cold fragrance.

As he approached, Su Ji’s heart gradually beat like a drum under her calm expression.

She was glad that she was one of the parties involved in those chapters.

The other one was right in front of her.

She did not make any sound in the darkness. Pei Huai walked closer and sat by the bed.

The bed beside her sank.

He bent down to check on her.

Then, he saw her wrap the blanket around her neck. In the quiet darkness, her sparkling eyes looked at him, especially quiet.

Pei Huai’s large palm covered the top of her head. His fingertips moved slightly and rubbed her head. He asked, “you’re not asleep yet?”

Su Ji did not answer and just looked at him.

After about a minute, she reached out her hands from under the blanket and wrapped them around his neck.

She was rarely so enthusiastic, so Pei Huai raised his eyebrows. “?”

Su Ji knew that he was quite busy at the company today and had worked overtime until now.

But...she still whispered, “Pei Huai, let’s work overtime...”

Pei Huai paused for a second.

“Don’t mess around.” He pursed his lips lightly. “What are you up to now?”

The last time he saw her like this, he was tortured very badly, and until now, he still had a lingering fear. Although he did not know what he did wrong this time, he could not easily fall into her trap.

Su Ji tilted her head slightly, and the corners of her lips curled into a sly smile. She lazily wrapped her arms around his neck, like a demoness who had brought disaster to the countrv.

“I think..your second brother is better than you?

“What did you say?” Pei Huai sneered and raised his eyebrows. “Because of what we saw in the elevator?”

Su Ji deliberately did not say anything, as if she did not want to comment.

Pei Huai laughed again, clearly furious.

He pinched her chin and exerted some force. “I thought you were too thin and was afraid that you wouldn’t be able to take it.”

Su Ji thought for a moment. “Are you better than him?”

“You don’t believe me?”

Su Ji whispered in his ear, “prove it to me...”

Pei Huai’s eyes dimmed, and his smile instantly turned into some kind of ruthlessness.

He didn’t care anymore.

The lights in the room were off, and it seemed like they were still crawling in the dark night, but it was no longer quiet.

It was said that literature came from real life, but it was more vivid than life, but Su Ji thought that it was not the case at the moment...

The light of the moon shone in, and she felt a little dizzy.. Her vision was so chaotic that it lost its rhythm..
