C58

In the enclosed space, an ambiguous atmosphere quietly fermented.

She stood at the man's side, her eyes fixed on the constantly changing numbers on the floor, her palms sweating uncontrollably.

It was clearly not the age of seventeen or eighteen for him to palpitate with eagerness, but at this moment, his heartbeat was like a thunderclap, and he was unable to calm down for a long time.

The man's hand was wide, with a man's peculiar sense of strength, warm and broad, that could easily wrap around her whole hand.

He stealthily and stealthily glanced over, but accidentally met the man's gaze.

Their eyes met.

Pei Luoyi was the first to turn her face away and reveal a vexed expression on her face, which the man could not see.

This situation... Something didn't seem right.

Unprepared, the elevator suddenly stopped and the door opened.

Shen Cui stood outside the door, his hurried expression frozen on his face. Looking at the two faces, his gaze stopped at the two clasped hands. Immediately, his expression changed again and again, almost as fast as the speed of the Drama's change in expression.

"What is it?"

With one hand on his pockets and the other on the woman's hand, Gong Yan didn't feel anything amiss even though he was being stared at by a pair of wide-opened eyes.

Pei Luoyi's face turned pale and she subconsciously wanted to withdraw her hand, but the man's hand tightened and tightened, refusing to let her go.

"Gong Yan!" She glared at the man, her urgent voice spilling from her lips.

Hearing that, the man tilted his head to look at her before turning his head to face Shen Cui who was still in a dumbstruck state. The expression in his eyes immediately darkened as he asked, "I'm asking you something."

The low pressure from his body finally brought someone back to reality.

Shen Cui was stunned for a moment before he shuddered. He recalled the matter that he hastily ran over here and hurriedly said, "Head of the Palace, it's like this. Something happened over at the South Bay just now, so you might need to take care of it …"

As he said this, he suddenly recalled that he had booked a table for their lunch not too long ago. He thought for a moment before adding, "But it's not particularly urgent. The Deputy Chief is already gone. You and Miss Pei can go over after lunch."

Gong Yan listened quietly to his words, but his dark eyes didn't seem to have any warmth in them. In fact, even after hearing his words, he seemed even more displeased, "So, why are you still standing here?"

The meaning behind his words was that he was obstructing them.

Shen Cui immediately exited the elevator and affectionately pressed the button to close the door.

The moment he turned around, he heaved a sigh of relief.

Luckily, he didn't disturb the Boss' rare lunch date.

After all, the rumor of the big BOSS being GAY had been spread for more than a year. He finally had the chance to refute it, and he had ironclad evidence to back it up!

"..."

The black Rolls-Royce stopped at a restaurant called Blueocean.

Blueocean is a Western-style restaurant built under the sea. It took about a year to build it and half a year to open its doors.

Because the atmosphere was good, even though the restaurant was restricted, it was still so lively that one needed to make an appointment in advance to get a seat.

Most couples choose to have lunch or dinner together.

She had never eaten pork before, and had also seen pigs run. Other than the different types of men and women in the restaurant, there was no one of any other age. She only needed to take a few glances to understand what was going on.

"That... "Why don't we go somewhere else to eat? This place seems …"

Pulling on the man's sleeve, her smile was stiff.

"What's wrong?"

Gong Yan first looked at the sleeve that had been pulled, then shifted his gaze to the woman's somewhat reserved expression. His thin lips pursed into a slight curve, "You don't like it here?"

Pei Luoyi shook her head and bit her lips. She then lowered her voice and said, "There seems to be a couple here. I feel that we …" "Not really."

"Where is it inappropriate?" The man's eyebrows slightly raised as he stopped walking and turned around to stand in front of the woman.

There was a bright light overhead, and it fell down on the man's sculptured face.

Pei Luoyi looked at him, pursed her lips and remained silent.

And to ask her what was inappropriate? You can't even tell that much? The situation between them... It was clearly out of place in this place.

She lowered her head and lowered her eyes slightly. Her eyelashes, which were as light as a feather fan, fluttered from time to time. It was like a feather had landed on a man's heart.

With a good temper, Gong Yan took the woman's hand again and pulled her inside.

Shen cuisine was placed in a relatively secluded corner. Beside it was the glass wall that separated the sea from the sea. One could clearly see the shoal of fish swimming freely.

The moment Pei Luoyi sat down, her attention was quickly attracted and she did not even know when the man had ordered the meal.

The rippling water was casting a rippling wave of light.

Pei Luoyi rested her cheek on one hand as she watched. Suddenly, she remembered something from her past.

It seemed that a long time had passed, but those happy memories could still clearly be seen in his mind.

"Do you know?" She smiled faintly as her gaze shifted from the fish to the man's face once more. "There was a time when I liked diving, and I liked the feeling of being like a fish in the sea. Every time I dived in, I felt like a small fish in the sea."

Her eyes were filled with a warm and genuine smile, but it was also overshadowed by a layer of gloom.

Gong Yan looked at her and said bluntly, "You've drowned."

Pei Luoyi was not annoyed by the straightforward mention of this matter. It did not matter to her as if she was listening to someone else's story.

She picked up the red wine cup on the table and took a small sip. After taking a deep breath, she said, "Did you investigate this?" It's even written on there? "

The man narrowed his deep eyes and said in a light tone, "Of course, there's something about you that doesn't require much detail."

It had taken him at least a few days to finish reading through the information his subordinates had brought him.

It could be said that he knew every aspect of her life.

For some reason, he frowned as he looked at the woman who had heard about the wounds he had suffered but had no reaction to them.

Before he could open his mouth, Pei Luoyi had already begun recalling her memories. Her half-closed eyelids hid some unfathomable emotions.

"Actually, if only I hadn't thought of diving for a bit that day. Without the oxygen equipment, and if my leg cramp hadn't floated up, I would have lost consciousness, and when I woke up, my friends would have been worried. From then on, I think I'd go to the seaside, and I wouldn't be able to go into the sea.

She spoke lightly as if she was reminiscing about something that had happened a long time ago. However, the reminiscence in her eyes was so clear that it could not be ignored.
