Chapter 323 - Who Had Sworn to Focus On Her Career? (1/2)

His heart was still beating rapidly and forcefully against her hand, contrasting vastly with the man’s usual calmness…

Lin Yan stood there blankly in shock…

Her mind felt as though it had been mashed up into a messy pile.

The alarm, which had originally been beeping, suddenly stopped abruptly.

Knock, knock, knock.

Suddenly, someone knocked softly on the door.

Lin Yan jumped and turned warily toward the door.

Sh*t!

Why would anyone be at such a secluded place?

Lin Yan was still reeling from shock when a familiar voice jolted her back to reality. “Big Brother, Big Sister-In-Law…”

“Mr. Pei?”

Lin Yan heaved a huge sigh of relief when she heard Pei Nanxu’s voice and hurriedly opened the storeroom door.

“Mr. Pei, why are you here?” asked Lin Yan.

Pei Nanxu glanced at Lin Yan first before turning to his brother.

Their hands were still interlinked…

Pei Nanxu glanced at his brother, looking conflicted and awkward.

He had no wish to interrupt them, but Big Brother had also commanded that nothing should affect Lin Yan’s work!

Pei Nanxu had to explain. “Big Sister-In-Law, dinner just started. If you disappear for so long, someone might find out. I called both of you, but no one picked up. I couldn’t let a third person know, so I had to come personally…”

Lin Yan instinctively took a look at her phone. Her phone’s battery had died.

She was incredibly touched when she heard Pei Nanxu.

What a terrific, wonderful brother-in-law!
