He looked at the sea with a deep gaze. For some reason, he suddenly thought of Wenxin.
When he drove past this area last time when he was looking for someone to collect some of Ji Ziming’s company’s early stage information, he found the nearby waters to be very peaceful. Seeing that PEI GE had been working overtime for the past two days and looked dispirited, he thought of bringing her here to relax. Unexpectedly, at this moment, his mind was filled with Wen Xin’s voice and smile.
He took out his phone from his pocket, took a picture of the ocean view, and sent it to Wenxin.
Even though she did not write a single word, Wen Xin’s reply came quickly.””Hmph, Cheng Ningyuan, you’ve been slacking off again. After sending sister Pei Pei to work, why aren’t you coming back to help Mr. Shen organize the documents?”
Seeing the murderous tone of the message, Cheng Ningyuan shook his head helplessly. After a bitter laugh, he picked up his phone and replied to Wen Xin,””I’m asking you how is this sea? You really have a wooden head, you don’t have any sense of aesthetics. ”
Cheng Ningyuan’s lips curled up unconsciously as he imagined the tone and expression Wen Xin would use to reply to this message. As he thought about it, he actually laughed in a daze and did not notice that PEI GE had already gotten out of the car and was behind him.
“Is our Ning Yuan in love? I’ve never seen you smile so sweetly before. ” Feeling much more energetic, she smiled and sat down on the grass beside the man.
Cheng Ningyuan quickly retracted the smile on his face and scratched his head in embarrassment.””Hey, Pei Pei, when did you wake up?”
She suspiciously smiled at him and, when she noticed his slightly red face, she was overjoyed. When she noticed this, she covered her mouth and laughed.”Aiyo, you’re embarrassed to get up! You’re even trying to change the topic. Quick, tell sister Pei Pei honestly, did you take a fancy to some girl?”
This was the first time PEI GE had seen Cheng Ningyuan like this. Unlike his usual reticence, she suddenly had the urge to tease him and threw all her worries and trifles to the back of her mind.
Cheng Ningyuan was even more embarrassed now, but he still pretended to be as deep as usual and said,””Pei Pei, don’t make wild guesses. I, Cheng Ningyuan, am not in the mood to talk about relationships now. In any case, I’ve been an orphan with no one to rely on since the old Abbot left. If it wasn’t for the fact that you and Shen Feng didn’t mind and were willing to keep me by your side, I really wouldn’t know where my home is. Don’t even talk about holding up the girl. ”
At this point, Cheng Ningyuan completely locked his phone screen, and his eyes were obviously misty with a layer of loneliness.
PEI GE took in all of this and crossed her legs with her slender hands on her knees, allowing the sea breeze to blow her hair back.
After a long time, she calmed down and said,””You know what? Ning Yuan, I just had a serious illness. When I woke up in a small house in Namibia, Africa, I was just as confused and afraid of the changes that life has brought to me as you are now. However, I’m very lucky to have Shen Feng by my side to encourage and support me. As for you, you’re even luckier than me because other than me, Shen Feng, and Wen Xin, you have another person by your side. ”
At this point, she placed a hand on Cheng Ningyuan’s shoulder and looked at him with her bright eyes. When the latter heard Wen Xin’s name, he also turned to look at her. The disappointment in his eyes turned into Starlight.
PEI GE continued,”actually, I’ve been able to tell that you and Wenxin are both fated to be unlucky, so you often use your Hedgehog-like personality to resist each other. However, under that prickly exterior, there’s an extremely soft heart. Neither of you can bear to hurt the other. Feelings are as hard to hide as sneezing. If you really love each other after a long time, I think it’s better not to miss each other. You’re a smart boy, you can understand everything with just one word, right?”
She looked at him again and smiled. She saw the fire in his eyes burning even more fervently.
However, he still tried his best to hide his emotions and only nodded silently after listening to her.
She patted his shoulder again and removed her hands from it to wrap them around her own.
It was already late autumn. Even though it was noon by the sea, the sea breeze was still a little chilly.
She sneezed all of a sudden, and Cheng Ningyuan hurriedly got up and walked to the car behind him.””I didn’t think it through. I don’t have a coat. I’ll get the blanket and put it on you!”
PEI GE smiled as Cheng Ningyuan quickly brought a blanket over and draped it over her back.””Ning Yuan, you’ve really changed a lot from when I first met you on the mountain. Back then, you were young and shy, but now, you know how to bicker with Wenxin and how to care for her. ”
“You’re good to me, and I’ll be good to you. Aren’t they all mutual? What’s the Difference? By the way, do you feel better after looking at the sea?” Cheng Ningyuan sat down beside her again and looked at the vast sea.
PEI GE also looked at the patch of deep blue. Taking a deep breath and closing her eyes to feel the sea breeze, she softly replied,””Of course, it would be great if all the people and things in this world were as pure and clean as the sea.”
Suddenly, Cheng Ningyuan’s phone rang again. It was a message from Wen Xin.”Such a blue ocean, of course it’s beautiful. It’s just that I can’t see it, can’t I just be a little jealous?”
Cheng Ningyuan laughed at this and then asked,””Pei Pei, can I help you take a photo? It’s really beautiful when you look at the side of the sea with your eyes narrowed. I’ll send it to you when I’m done. ”
She did not open her eyes and merely replied with a smile,””How good is it? Go ahead, Ning Yuan. I believe in you. ”
“If I say it’s good, it’s definitely good!” As he spoke, he raised his phone and adjusted the angle and lighting.
Sure enough, with her natural beauty and purity, coupled with the blue sky, white clouds, and vast ocean as the background, she looked like she was in an outdoor film without any makeup.
Cheng Ningyuan showed the photo on his phone to her with great interest, and she was really stunned by it. “”Waa! Ning Yuan, you’re not lying to me. Is this still me?”
