The Temptation of Reborn Pinru

When Lin Pinru woke up the next morning, the sky was already bright.

Looking around the unfamiliar environment, the elegant layout shows the good taste of the owner.

Looking down at his body in only a pair of underwear, Lin Pinru couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.

Fortunately, there are no traces of ambiguity on her body, and there are no eclectic memories in her mind.

He took out the phone and turned it on, and saw the missed call from Ellie on it, and felt a pain in his heart, so he put down the phone.

Lin Pinru sighed, got up, got dressed and got out of bed.

After leaving the guest room, go out through the corridor to the living room. Chen Jie is eating breakfast at the dining table and reading the newspaper.

"Did you sleep well last night?" Chen Jie noticed Lin Pinru and asked her with a smile.

Lin Pinru nodded, walked slowly to the table and sat down.

"You don't have to worry too much about Chairman Gao. Gao Wenyan has already called to inform him that everything is normal for the chairman and he should wake up soon."

Knowing what Lin Pinru was still worried about, Chen Jie gave her a reassurance before the other party asked her.

Lin Pinru breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Chen Jie gratefully, with mixed emotions in her heart.

"What do you want to eat, I'll let the chef do it." Chen Jie tilted her head and looked at her. This was the first time she saw Lin Pinru's sleepy face after waking up. It was unexpectedly cute.

Lin Pinru smiled, and suddenly had a wonderful idea. Instead of answering Chen Jie's question, she asked instead:

"Since you are so good at reading other people's minds, guess what I want to eat?"

After listening to Lin Pinru's words, Chen Jie smiled, then thought seriously for a moment and said:

"I think seafood porridge should be good with a hot spring egg and a little vegetable salad."

This kind of answer is not unsatisfactory, but it is too troublesome. Originally, Lin Pinru only wanted to order simple food such as bread with a bottle of milk, or soy milk fritters, porridge and side dishes.

However, Chen Jie has lived abroad for so long, and her eating habits may have become westernized. She is not used to soy milk fritters, porridge and side dishes, and the combination of milk and bread is too simple for a rich lady like her.

Chen Jie pressed the bell in front of her, and after a while, a girl in an apron came forward.

"Make a seafood porridge, a hot spring egg that is slightly cooked, and a vegetable salad with a little red sausage." Chen Jie ordered without raising her head, and the girl nodded in agreement and quickly left.

It's bloody capitalism.Lin Pinru secretly slandered, it was the first time that she felt Chen Jie's overpowering aura.

Looking up at the surrounding environment, it is different from the grandeur of Hong Shixian's house. The decoration of Chen Jie's house is generous, elegant and ingenious, and the details everywhere are intriguing.

The layout of the house was still large and empty, and the winding stairs showed that it was at least a two-storey building.

The oily and slippery wood on the handrails of the stairs shows the historical heritage accumulated over time, and there is even a wall clock in the room that seems to have a long history.

There were no hanging paintings of flowers and wealth in the room, nor any gold and jade decorations, but Lin Pinru couldn't help but marvel at the elegant antique vases and well-maintained bronzes placed in the room.

Although she has always known that Chen Jie is a lady of noble family background, it's just that in modern times, social values ​​emphasize equality, so she doesn't take this matter too seriously.

But only after seeing the tip of the iceberg of these wealthy families, Lin Pinru began to realize how naive and ridiculous her thoughts were—there is a world of difference between people.

When the steaming hot breakfast was served, perhaps because he was too hungry, Lin Pinru felt that it was no different from the breakfast in a five-star hotel he had eaten.

However, Lin Pinru can be considered a person who has seen the world anyway, and he is not like a hungry tiger rushing to eat, but still sipping breakfast slowly, looking very elegant and decent.

"I don't know if it suits your taste. It's just because I stayed up late last night, so I had a big breakfast and supplemented with vitamins." Chen Jie had already finished breakfast and asked the aunt who was working to remove the dishes.

She is now wholeheartedly staring at the woman opposite who is concentrating on eating.

Although she had fantasized about it, when Lin Pinru really had breakfast with her at her home, Chen Jie still felt a little unbelievable, a little bit of pleasure beyond expectations.

It would be great if it could be like this every day in the future.

There was a growing desire in Chen Jie's heart, longing to grab Lin Pinru's hands, longing to embrace Lin Pinru fiercely in his arms, longing for kisses that were no longer the last point, longing to exchange sex with her.

Desiring to keep Lin Pinru behind, he could feel her presence by his side every day.

Shaking her head to get rid of the unrealistic fantasies in her mind, such constant hints would only make her face more painful when facing the reality. Chen Jie's rationality awakened her.

"Thank you." Lin Pinru thanked Chen Jie again gratefully after having breakfast.

And not long after breakfast, Gao Wenyan called to say that Gao Hong had woken up.

Lin Pinru was silent, she really wanted to visit Gao Hong, but she didn't know how to face him.

After all, what happened yesterday afternoon can't be separated from her. As the saying goes, I didn't kill Boren, but Boren died because of me.

Lin Pinru didn't know whether Gao Hong would misunderstand her, thinking that he had disclosed the information to Gao Shanshan.

It's just that Lin Pinru didn't want to defend himself, and he didn't have the face to see the woman who was lying on the hospital bed and turned around.

So at noon, Lin Pinru cooked a cup of lean meat porridge, and asked Chen Jie to go to the hospital to visit Gao Hong instead.

Although she didn't understand Lin Pinru's avoidance of Gao Hong, Chen Jie still didn't ask any more questions.

Lin Pinru knew that Ai Li should not be blamed for this matter, after all Ai Li couldn't understand how she sincerely regarded Gao Hong as her biological mother and the Gao family as her own family.

For Ellie, those are just insignificant outsiders, so how could she worry about the other party's mood.

It was my own fault. I shouldn't have allowed Gao Hong and Gao Wenyan to pretend to be in love, and I shouldn't have stayed with Ellie for dinner every night during this time, making her jealous.

Even though Lin Pinru kept excused Ellie in her heart, in fact, she still couldn't forgive the series of tragedies caused by Ellie's actions towards Gao Hong.

Thinking of the phone ringing, Lin Pinru's contemplation was broken. She picked up the phone and saw the troublesome number.

"Hey, Lin Pinru, where are you now?" Ellie's calm voice came from the other end of the phone, but Lin Pinru could feel the anger that the other party was trying to suppress.

Lin Pinru was holding the phone, not knowing what to say, a sense of powerlessness made her limbs feel heavy.

"Ai Li, yesterday Gao Shanshan stabbed Gao Hong with a knife and rescued her all night. I don't want to blame you, but what did you tell Gao Shanshan yesterday?"

Lin Pinru lowered her voice, not wanting Ellie to think that she was questioning her.

"Oh? Just because of Gao Hong's rescue, you stayed away all night and didn't even call me? Lin Pinru, am I not as important as Gao Hong in your heart?"

"That woman is not related to you, why do you take her so seriously? Or is there some ulterior relationship between you? Lin Pinru, can you deal with such an old person? "

Ellie's questioning hit Lin Pinru's heart like a cannonball. She didn't understand how this woman who had slept with her for so many days and nights could say such nonsense.

"Ai Li, don't you really think that you are wrong?" Lin Pinru didn't pay attention to Ai Li's angry words, but seriously asked her what she wanted to ask.

"What's wrong with me? What's wrong with me? Lin Pinru, think about it for yourself, are you still dating other men while sleeping with me? I know it's fake, but I can't stand it, okay? I I can't stand the intimacy and sympathy between you even if it's just a show. I feel like going crazy!"

"What do you think is wrong with me? Even if Gao Shanshan stabbed Gao Hong with a knife, could it be that I held Gao Shanshan's hand and stabbed her mother? I just said a few words, who knew that crazy woman was so crazy."

After all, Ellie couldn't maintain her superficial calm, and yelled hysterically on the phone.

Holding the phone a little further away from her ears, Lin Pinru lowered her head and sighed.

"Ai Li, I know that Gao Shanshan happened to run into you when she came to look for me at home yesterday. She was crazy and delirious at that time, right? And you clearly knew that her mental state was very dangerous and might hurt others, but You still instigated her to go back and take revenge on Gao Hong, regardless of the consequences."

"Because Gao Hong entrusted me and Gao Wenyan to pretend to be in love, you probably hate her to the core?"

"Yes, I hate her to the core, but Lin Pinru, have you ever thought about why I did this? I don't understand why those people who have no relationship with you are more important to you than me?"

"Lin Pinru, you can only stare at me, I won't allow you to give your attention to others." Ellie's voice sounded a little calmer, she said this sentence as if begging or threatening talk.

"Ellie, have you thought about me? I have told you countless times that I love you, and there is nothing in the world that is more important than you, but you still have to test me again and again."

"Yes, you are important. But, Chen Jie, my close friend; Gao Hong, I respect and love her like my biological mother. No matter how much I love you, I can't allow you to trample on them and hurt them wantonly."

"Ai Li, this has nothing to do with love or not, it's a person's conscience, do you understand?" Lin Pinru's voice was so bitter that it was hard to speak, she was exhausted from head to toe.

"Lin Pinru, let me ask you, do you still love me?" After a long while, Lin Pinru heard Ellie's sad and trembling voice on the other end of the phone, which made her feel so distressed.

It seems that Ellie still didn't understand what she meant.

Lin Pinru did not answer Ellie's words, but hung up the phone after being silent for a moment.

Knowing that Ellie would keep calling to ask him this question, Lin Pinru threw the phone aside.

The phrase "I love you" that he had said countless times, after experiencing Gao Hong's life and death, Lin Pinru felt that he could no longer say it so easily now.

Ellie has never cared about other people's feelings. In her world, the only important thing is to love or not to love.

But for Lin Pinru, she can give up a lot of things for Ellie, but she can't always allow the other party to hurt the people around her unscrupulously—not out of love, but out of conscience.

Why can't Ellie understand such a simple truth?

There was a wall between the two of them, an invisible psychological wall, which forcibly separated the two of them into two lonely individuals.
