Endless Fall

The Feeling of Being in a Secret Love

At lunchtime, Sheng Heng’s cafeteria was packed.

Before Lin Jiao could pick up her favorite food, she heard Feng Yunjie’s excited shout.

“Lin Jiao, look!” She elbowed Lin Jiao’s forearm and raised her chin to the right. “The president is here!”

Pei Zhi’s appearance was like a stone thrown onto a calm lake, causing a ripple, making all the employees in the cafeteria look over.

They looked at him with admiration and respect.

Lin Jiao met his deep and dark eyes. When he walked over slowly, she called out softly , “President Pei.”

Pei Zhi nodded calmly.

He took the plate from Qu Shao and did not talk to her much.

After filling up his plate, he picked a seat on her right.

“President, here’s your soup.” When Qu Shao brought the bowl over, he glanced at Lin Jiao unintentionally. He wanted to laugh but did not dare to.

Pei Zhi ate slowly. The sun poured down from the window and landed on his exquisite face.

As he lowered his head to eat, his eyelashes fluttered like a feather brushing past the hearts of the female employees present.

Feng Yunjie was wide-mouthed in infatuation.

She stared at Pei Zhi, as if she could see the halo around him. It was mysterious and tempting.

Lin Jiao felt that she was about to drool. “Yunjie, eat first.” She reminded her in a low voice to avoid being heard by Pei Zhi.

“Huh? What did you say?”

“… The food is getting cold.”

Feng Yunjie came back to her senses and stopped looking to the right.

She pushed aside the hair hanging on the table and blinked at Lin Jiao. “I didn’t lie to you, did I?”

“No.” Lin Jiao knew what she was referring to.

Her gaze landed on Pei Zhi, thinking that no one with a normal sense of beauty would deny the fact that he was charming and attractive.

Pei Zhi caught her gaze and turned around.

He swallowed the food in his mouth and asked gently, “Do you have some tissue?” 𝗳𝘳𝒆𝘦𝑤𝐞𝚋𝗻𝚘𝘷𝘦𝙡.𝑐𝐨𝘮

“Yeah.” Lin Jiao put down her chopsticks.

When she handed him the tissue, she accidentally touched his fingertips. She felt as numb as if she had been electrocuted.

Seeing that she was avoiding eye contact, afraid that others would find out about their ‘relationship’, Pei Zhi had a strange feeling that he was in a secret love with his employee.

He smiled. “Thank you.”

“It’s fine.” Lin Jiao buried her head in her food.

She tried to calm her racing heart and only managed to do it when Pei Zhi left with Qu Shao.

“Lin Jiao, you don’t look right!” Feng Yunjie’s words shocked Lin Jiao. fre𝑒𝘸𝚎𝚋n૦ѵℯl.c𝒐𝘮

She pretended not to understand. “What do you mean?”

“You were blushing when you handed President Pei the tissue.”

“Was I?”

“Yes.” Feng Yunjie narrowed her eyes. “Tell me the truth. Are you infatuated with his beauty?”

Lin Jiao heaved a sigh of relief. “Yes, indeed, I was.” She patted her flushed cheeks and regained her composure.

Feng Yunjie had an expression that said, “I knew it all.”

On their way back to the planning department, she said, “It’s normal to like his looks, but don’t have any other thoughts.”

“What kind of thoughts?”

“Like becoming his girlfriend or lover.”

Lin Jiao cleared her throat and asked calmly, “How can I have that kind of thoughts?”
