Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Pei Jiao had not carefully calculated how many days she had stayed in this godforsaken base.
Five days? Ten days? Or twenty? She wasn’t sure. In any case, it had not been more than a month. Currently, her vocal cords had recovered and she could speak as normally as before, but she had been pretending and acting.
At first, she would not be able to grasp her acting skills well, especially when she was anxious. She almost spoke. Now that she was used to being mute, she had even learned some sign language for daily communication. However, not many people could understand it except for Wei Yu.
Especially Ji He, the assistant of Wei Yu. It was difficult to communicate with him.
Half an hour later, Pei Jiao would be accompanied by Ji He to find a persimmon tree. She heard that it was the only fruit tree in the base. It was nurtured by Wen Qiong in her early years. It was very good-looking. This was the fourth year of persimmons.
The people in the base were very busy. No one would come to pick persimmons. The persimmons on the branches were already ripe in this season. There was no need to put them back after picking them. They could be eaten after washing.
Wei Yu had told Pei Jiao about the existence of the persimmon tree because she was too bored.
When Pei Jiao heard this, her eyes widened. In the end, before she could be happy for more than three seconds, she heard Wei Yu remind her, “Since I told you, you can go, but you have to be accompanied by Ji He.”
Pei Jiao: (7 _ —D
Wei Yu wanted to ignore Pei Jiao’s expression, but after taking a look, even if he turned his face away, her lively expression would always appear in his mind. He turned to look at her. “Also, you’re not allowed to go up the tree yourself. Let Ji He pluck as much as you want.”
Pei Jiao pursed her lips.
Wei Yu reminded her, “Attitude.’
Pei Jiao restrained her attitude and nodded obediently in front of Wei Yu.
Wei Yu had a complicated expression. When he faced Pei Jiao, he had an indescribable feeling in his heart. It was very strange, but he did not think much of it. He thought that it was just a precaution against an outsider like her.
Pei Jiao gestured and asked, “Are you going to work?”
The two of them had always lived separately. As for why Wei Yu was with her so early in the morning, it was because he had come back to get the information and brought her breakfast. This way, Pei Jiao wouldn’t have to make another trip to the canteen.
Wei Yu understood her gesture and nodded. “Recently, the base has lost something important. I’m at my busiest time. I can’t accompany you… and watch you all the time.”
Pei Jiao’s expression turned strange. Had she misheard something just now? He said… accompany her?? Seeing Wei Yu’s expressionless face, Pei Jiao was certain that she had misheard.
Wei Yu picked up the information. Before he left, he said to Pei Jiao, “You’d better be good and not run around. I’ll bring you dinner tonight.”
Pei Jiao gestured twice. Would it be too much trouble?
Wei Yu shook his head. “No, I have to eat too.’
Pei Jiao was surprised. Are we eating together?
Wei Yu pursed his lips and replied coldly, “It’s not that I want to eat with you, but the base’s investigation has become more and more strict recently. I have to watch over you to prevent you from being caught by mistake when you’re not under my watch. It doesn’t feel good to be locked up and completely restrict your freedom. I hope you understand.”
Pei Jiao pursed her lips and nodded. Her impatient expression seemed to say, I do, I do, I do, I do!
Wei Yu sneered and nodded in the direction behind Pei Jiao. “Breakfast is getting cold. Eat as soon as possible.”
Pei Jiao ignored him and turned to go in, leaving him alone. Wei Yu didn’t care if she ignored him. He took the documents and left first. After Wei Yu left, Pei Jiao quickly finished her breakfast and waited patiently for Ji He to pick her up.
Half an hour later, Ji He arrived on time. He stretched and said, “I’m clearly here to take care of Young Master’s food and daily life. Now, I’ve been sent to be your mother.”
Pei Jiao was especially unhappy with Ji He’s tone. She gestured: I’m going to report you!
However, Ji He could not understand Pei Jiao’s gesture at all. After a while, he asked hesitantly, “You want to hit me?”
It seemed that he could achieve one thing.
However, there was a huge difference in strength between men and women. Even if Pei Jiao wanted to beat Ji He up, she could not express it in front of him. For the sake of that persimmon tree, she quickly smiled ingratiatingly at Ji He.
“That’s more like it. Girls should be gentle and likable.” With that, Ji He waved his hand. “Follow me.’
Pei Jiao raised her eyebrows and immediately followed. When she got there, she understood why she had almost explored the entire base and had never seen the persimmon tree. It turned out that the persimmon tree was at the border between the base and the outside world.
No wonder Wei Yu said that she had to be accompanied by Ji He to pick persimmons. Ji He moved swiftly and quickly climbed up the tree. Pei Jiao raised her head and raised her hands, gesturing at Ji He.
This time, Ji He understood two gestures. “You want to eat? You want to eat a big one? Alright, alright, I understand. I’ll find you a big persimmon. Stand further away. Be careful not to let the ripe persimmon fall on your head.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a ripe persimmon landed on Ji He’s head and hit his face. When Pei Jiao saw Ji He’s comical expression, she almost couldn’t help but laugh. Fortunately, she stopped herself in time. She pressed her lips together and stifled a laugh. She gestured twice, worried.
“It’s fine, it’s fine.” Ji He had no choice but to get down from the tree. “It’s a little unfavorable at the start. I’ll go wipe it off. Wait for me.”
Pei Jiao nodded. While Ji He was wiping his face, Pei Jiao climbed up the tree herself. Her movements were even more agile than Ji He’s. She picked three persimmons in one go and put them in her pocket.
“Why are you up the tree?”
Wei Yu’s voice came from under the persimmon tree. Pei Jiao thought that she was hallucinating and thought that Wei Yu was busy at this moment. When she looked down, she realized that it was really Wei Yu.
He was standing tall under the tree in his white work clothes. He was looking up at her from the tree.
Pei Jiao felt a little guilty. She was used to expressing it with gestures, but she had forgotten her current situation. When she raised her hand to gesture, she lost her balance and almost fell from the tree.
The moment she teetered, Wei Yu’s expression changed. He instinctively raised both hands and tried to catch her. Fortunately, Qiao Qiao did not fall, and Wei Yu missed.
Pei Jiao smiled awkwardly, but there was no smile on Wei Yu’s face. His expression was extremely cold as he said angrily, “Did I remind you not to go up the tree?”
His tone was heavy, with a roar. Pei Jiao was stunned and looked at him in a daze. Wei Yu quickly realized that his tone was a little harsh. He took a deep breath and closed his eyes. When he opened them again, his expression softened.
He approached the tree trunk and reached out to Qiao Qiao. “Come down first.
I’ll help you.”
Pei Jiao shook her head. “No.”
Wei Yu repeated, “Come down.”
Pei Jiao still shook her head. “No.”
Wei Yu’s expression turned cold again. “Are you coming down?”
Pei Jiao was not afraid at all, especially the more Wei Yu threatened her, the more obvious her rebellious bones became. She shook her head and said, “I won’t!”
Wei Yu was clearly angry. “Do you have to anger me?”
Pei Jiao turned her head away from him and raised her hand to fiddle with the persimmon that had fallen in front of her. Realizing that it was not completely ripe, she did not pick it. Seeing that Pei Jiao completely ignored his words, Wei Yu was so angry that he was about to go up the tree. Pei Jiao immediately moved to prevent Wei Yu from grabbing her foot.
However, this move caused her to miss and fall backward.
“Ah—I’ She let out an instinctive scream.
Fortunately, Wei Yu was fast enough to catch Pei Jiao when she fell. Although the impact was not strong, it was enough for Pei Jiao to press Wei Yu down. There’s no beautiful kiss, Pei Jiao’s front teeth hit Wei Yu’s front teeth. She was in so much pain that her entire face was in a mess.
Wei Yu was not any better. “Get! Up!”
Pei Jiao lay on the ground and did not move. She covered her mouth. “Boohoo, it hurts…
Wei Yu suddenly realized. “You can speak now?”
Pei Jiao was stunned. It was over..
