Unreliable Love at First Sight

Seeing that she really did not have any thoughts about that, Feng Yunjie was relieved and started to gossip with her about the design department.

The gossip was basically about a female colleague who failed to seduce Pei Zhi and was fired.

“She’s that bold?”

“That’s right. I heard that she was wearing a very sexy dress at that time. However, as soon as she entered the CEO’s office, she was asked to leave by Assistant Qu.”

Lin Jiao raised an eyebrow and did not comment. “I don’t think that happens often, right?”

“Of course, who would dare?” Feng Yunjie walked with her to the resting area. “But there are still many female colleagues who like him.”

“Well, he can’t stop people from liking him, can he?”

“That’s true. He’s just too excellent.”

Lin Jiao nodded.

When she saw that there were other colleagues in the resting area, she stopped talking about Pei Zhi.

“Lin Jiao, where did you buy that dress?” Wang Rui was stunned by the black dress.

“Miumiu store.”

“How much is it?”

Lin Jiao took a moment to recall. “About 30,000 yuan.”

“That expensive?” Wang Rui touched the lace on her sleeve and was puzzled. “I think the quality is average.”

“What do you know?” Sun Feiyu crossed her legs and sized up Lin Jiao.

She smiled meaningfully. “These luxury dresses are all about brands. Who cares about quality?”

“That’s not worth it.”

“Rich people don’t care about money. Do you think everyone is like us who needs to consider and reconsider buying a dress for a few days?”

When Lin Jiao heard this, she felt that Sun Feiyu was mocking her for being stupidly rich.

She didn’t get triggered. Instead, she said calmly, “No matter what clothes you buy, it’s all up to you. It doesn’t matter if it’s expensive or cheap. It’s enough as long as it can make you happy.”

“Well said,” Wang Rui agreed.

She retracted her gaze from the dress and turned to look at Sun Feiyu, whose expression had changed slightly. “I remember that you sell fake goods. Am I right?”

Sun Feiyu blushed almost instantly. “What are you talking about? You must be mistaken.”

“I don’t think so. Didn’t you just buy a LV bag last month? You told me about it.”

“That’s not fake. That’s a genuine one.”

“Really?”

Wang Rui did not dwell on this topic and asked, “Then do you have any friends who sell fake goods?”

“No.” Sun Feiyu refused to admit it. She did not want to embarrass herself again. “Go on Taobao. There is a bunch of fake stuff.”

“Sure.” Wang Rui really opened Taobao.

She searched for a few keywords but could not find the dress. She could only say to Lin Jiao, “Can I take a photo of your dress?”

Lin Jiao agreed.

After she finished modeling, she turned around and left with the cup of freshly brewed black tea. She did not even look at Sun Feiyu.

When she returned to her desk, Feng Yunjie leaned over.

She clicked her tongue and said, “Not only is Sun Feiyu hypocritical, but her private life is also very messy. Don’t lower yourself to her level.”

Lin Jiao frowned. “How do you know?”

“I saw a few different men pick her up after work.”

“That doesn’t prove anything.”

“Anyway, she doesn’t have a good reputation.” Feng Yunjie took out an afternoon pillow and lay on it. “Just stay away from her.”

“Sure,” Lin Jiao answered flatly.

When they were in the resting room, Feng Yunjie did not say a word to defend Lin Jiao and just watched the show.

She had never expected to make friends in a business world filled with benefits, and she did not like Feng Yunjie’s habit of gossiping after watching a show.

Pei Yilan came to the company on Thursday.

After having her lunch, she went to the restaurant where she and Lin Jiao had agreed to meet up.

She walked leisurely. When she passed by an alley, she was suddenly pulled in by a strong hand.

“Ah—”

Jiang Ye covered her mouth in time.

He looked out and saw the group of people were still chasing after him. He turned around and pressed Pei Yilan against the wall.

“Don’t be afraid. I’m not a bad person.” He was dressed neatly and cleanly, and his voice was surprisingly pleasant.

Pei Yilan looked up subconsciously.

When she met that extraordinarily handsome face, her heart skipped a beat.

She stared at him intently. She felt she had been shot by Cupid’s arrow, making her mesmerized and forget to struggle.

“My apology.” Jiang Ye let go of her a moment later.

He looked at her and took two steps back clumsily. “I was chased by some people just now,” he explained.

Pei Yilan tilted her head and took a deep breath.

She brushed back the hair at her temple and tidied her dress in a ladylike manner. “It’s fine. Is there anything else I can help you with?”

Jiang Ye shook his head. “Thank you.”

At this moment, a MPV stopped outside the alley.

A fierce-looking man pushed open the car door and waved at Jiang Ye. “Get in!”

“I have to go.” Jiang Ye pressed down the baseball cap on his head and gave her a charming smile before leaving.

Pei Yilan was stunned for a long time. It was only when Lin Jiao called her that she came back to her senses and walked out of the alley reluctantly.

“Jiaojiao, I think I’m in love.” She took the coffee from Lin Jiao and couldn’t stop smiling foolishly.

“Ahem…” Lin Jiao choked on the coffee.

She looked at Pei Yilan’s unfocused eyes. “Who are you in love with?” Why didn’t she know anything about it?

Pei Yilan told her what happened at the alley.

Lin Jiao was speechless. “You mean you fell in love with him at first sight?”

“Yes!”

“Do you know his name?”

“I don’t know.” Pei Yilan did not care. Instead, she said confidently, “But I have a way to find him.”

“How?”

“The people who chased him just now are probably his enemies or creditors. I’ll know after screening the nearby casinos and loan companies.”

Lin Jiao had reason to suspect that her friend was blinded by love.

She frowned and rained on her parade. “What if he’s a murderer?”

“Impossible.” Pei Yilan waved her hand and analyzed in a serious tone, “His temperament and behavior don’t look like that of a murderer. At most, he’s a deadbeat.”

“Murderers are very good at disguising. You might not be able to tell with just your eyes.”

“Jiaojiao, you’re thinking too much.”

Lin Jiao sighed. “I just find it very suspicious.” Falling in love with someone who was being hunted down by a group of people. Wasn’t that kind of movie plot?

That man was an absolute mystery. She really did not want Pei Yilan to take the risk.

“Don’t worry.” Pei Yilan held her hand.

With a serious expression, she promised, “If he’s really a criminal, I definitely stay away from him!”

Lin Jiao was silent for a moment. “Are you sure you want to find him?”
