“Pei Ge, in my eyes, you’re a better match for me than anyone else.”
Red light. The car slowly came to a stop.
In that moment, along with the vehicle, Pei Ge seemed to have come to a stop as well.
From the passenger seat, she stared at Ji Ziming in a daze.
Sometimes, she did not know why a cold, haughty man of few words could say such moving things.
“Don’t imagine things. You’re great. In this world, there are a lot of pretty and outstanding women, but you are the only Pei Ge in this world.”
He reached out his hand and held hers. “You’re also the only stupid woman who can move my heart,” he said, looking tenderly at her.
Boom!
She felt her mind go blank instantly.
Her heart beat wildly and quickly.
In that moment, she felt like crying.
What did she do to deserve his love?
“Say; why do you usually… always say things that make me want to cry?”
Only after a while did she return to her senses. She sniffed and smiled happily at him with teary eyes.
“I’ve realized that your tongue is getting glibber. You can utter sweet nothings off the bat; who did you learn them from?”
Even though she sounded like she was complaining, her expression was that of happiness.
“You don’t like it?” he asked, his tone a little confused despite his calm expression.
“I love it!”
As she spoke, she leaped toward him.
Even her seatbelt could not stop her.
The man was totally caught off guard by her sudden actions, and before he could react, her arms were already wrapped around him.
“Ji Ziming, I’m telling you; you have me head over heels for you. From now on, you can only belong to me. You’re mine and only mine in life and in death!”
She hugged him tightly, but rather than hugged, perhaps wrapping herself around him would be the more apt adjective.
“Since you said so many sweet nothings to me, you must be responsible for the rest of my life! In the future, you can’t say that you don’t want me or that you don’t love me! If not… If not, I’ll…”
In that instant, she did not know what she could use to threaten him.
She could not bear to be too hard on him, but at the same time, she did not want to go too easy, or else it would just sound like a joke.
However, soon after, she did not have to worry about it anymore because…
He dipped his head with a smile when he saw how she wrapped herself around him like an octopus.
He pressed his cold lips against her mouth.
“…” Her eyes instantly widened when she felt his lips on hers.
He did not deepen the kiss, though. Rather, he planted a gentle, intimate, and light kiss on her lips.
Such a kiss, albeit not passionate or spell-binding, was warm enough to move one’s heart.
After a long while, his lips finally left hers, and he placed them by her ear.
“If not, you can punish me by letting my son take your name and have him call you mom.”
The passionate sweet nothings, coupled with the cold, deep and sexy voice, were really powerful.
In an instant, her face flushed bright red, as if she were having a fever.
“You, what nonsense are you talking about? Who’s going to give you a son?” Her eyes, wide and shimmering, were made exceptionally alluring by her flushed face.
“Fine. A daughter it is, then.”
He started teasing her, which was a rare act on his part, when he saw her state.
She was shocked to hear him tease her.
Were these words the great CEO Ji would utter? This was practically harassment!
“You’re taking advantage of me!” she hissed shyly, blinking at him.
“Really? I don’t feel like I am,” he asked carelessly, his tone nonchalant.
Hearing his question, she was suddenly reminded that they had already gotten their marriage certificates. There was no such thing as him taking advantage of her!
Legally, she was his wife!
As she thought of this, her heart was filled with bliss.
No matter what, she was bound to him already. They were husband and wife!
Before she could revel in this joy, she thought of a question.
“Ah, right!” She looked at him, feeling a little conflicted. “We’ve already registered our marriage. How are you going to explain that to your parents in the future?”
Also, how was she going to explain things to her mom?
Should she tell her mother that she had sold herself as a wife to this man because of her illness?
If that was the case, her mom would definitely kill her!
As she was letting her imagination run wild, unbeknown to her, the brows of the man in the driver’s seat knitted tightly together.
It was as if she had said something she should not have.
“Pei Ge, there’s something that I haven’t told you…”
“Hm?”
When she heard his way of speaking, she blinked in confusion.
“Actually, our—” he began to say, looking somber.
Alas, before he could finish, someone rapping on the car window cut him off.
Knock, knock, knock!
The rapping persisted, and alongside it came a few expletives and questions.
“Do you own this road or something?! The light’s already green! How d*mn long do you guys intend to block the road?!”
Only then did the couple realize that the traffic light had already turned green.
In a few seconds, the light would turn red again.
Opening the car window, he glanced calmly at the man hurtling slurs at them, and the latter instantly went quiet.
“I’m sorry; I’m sorry. We’ll move when the light turns green again! I’m so sorry.”
She apologized on behalf of a certain great CEO.
The man did not say anything more but left quietly under Ji Ziming’s gaze.
“Ziming, what was it that you wanted to tell me earlier?”
