“Hur hur! Aren’t you Ziming’s girlfriend? Why don’t you know what his taste in food? Don’t you know that he dislikes eating fish?”
Although this woman’s smile was gentle and her tone was friendly, her words gave Pei Ge an uncomfortable feeling.
“Oh? Looks like Miss Qiao understands our Ziming well.”
She put down the menu and smiled at her.
“That’s for sure. You probably don’t know this because it hasn’t been long since you met him, but he and I grew up together.”
The other’s smile deepened.
Both ladies were smiling and talking to each other friendlily, but the waitress inexplicably felt… as though the temperature had dropped by a few degrees.
“T-That… Two misses, do you still want to order the squirrel-shaped mandarin fish?”
The waitress felt as though she were about to crumble in this atmosphere; hence, she gulped and mustered up her courage to ask this question.
“No.”
“Yes.”
Who knew that when the question was asked, both would answer at the same time?
“Er…” The waitress’s lips twitched as her expression turned even more helpless.
The smile on Pei Ge’s face dimmed, while the other remained bright.
“Miss Qiao, have you two ordered your dishes already?”
She looked at her lightly. How could she not understand that the woman before her was very hostile toward her and had the intention of stealing her boyfriend?
She decided to drop all act of cordiality there and then. Anyway, she still had the powerful backing of the man.
She did not believe that he would stand on this woman’s side!
Plus, this annoying fellow does…
“Order it, then.”
Qiao Jingyun saw her getting angry and shrugged. Happy that her plan had worked, she looked at the latter with caustic eyes.
“That dish – I’m ordering it. Oh, right. Make it extra sweeter.”
Pei Ge smiled at the waitress and passed the menu back.
“Alright.”
The waitress quickly fled from their table upon receiving the menu.
“Miss Pei, you’re not doing your job as Ziming’s girlfriend.”
Qiao Jingyun sipped her drink and smiled at her.
“She’s my girlfriend, so it’s not up to you to decide that.”
Unexpectedly, the moment she said this, the man did not wait for his girlfriend to reply and spoke at once.
“…”
Originally gloating at her success, Qiao Jingyun’s expression turned ugly at his words.
Even for someone who could act as well as she did, she was still unable to prevent herself from freezing when the man reprimanded her for his girlfriend’s sake.
In contrast to her sudden stiffness, Pei Ge felt gleeful.
She gave a radiant smile at him before directing it at the other woman.
“Miss Qiao, I know that you are our Ziming’s benefactor and that you’ve known him for a long time.” With a wide smile, she calmly continued. “Still, you’ve been gone for so long… People do change.
“It is as you said; he disliked eating fish or sweet food, but he changed for me. Not only does he like eating fish now, he even eats sweet stuff with me.”
At this point, she turned to look at the man and affectionately held his hand.
“Ziming, am I right to say that?”
“Yes. The squirrel-shaped mandarin fish you make is the best. Make it for me next time.”
He nodded without a second’s delay as he said that with a slight smile.
“No problem! Let’s cook at home for lunch tomorrow! I’ll cook what you like!”
She smilingly told him.
The way this pair looked into each other’s eyes made it seem as if they were the only two people in the world. Those near them could not enter their eyes and could only look on.
Fu Mingxuan, who had been silent all along, felt dejected at this.
Meanwhile, seeing the couple this intimate and affectionate, Qiao Jingyun almost gritted her teeth into crumbles.
My man actually did so much for her… She really… deserves to die! This woman needs to die!
He’s clearly mine! Why is she stealing him from me?!
Die, die, die! Go die!
She squeezed her hands tightly together, numbed to her carefully painted nails digging into her flesh as she glared at Pei Ge.
“Miss Qiao, why are you looking at me like that? Is there anything on my face?”
Turning her head over, the man’s girlfriend saw her expressionless face.
She was jolted out of her dark thoughts by her question.
“Oh, nothing. I just feel that he really loves you a lot. I’ve never seen him like this.”
A gentle and elegant smile surfaced on her lips again.
“Yes, he loves me a lot. He even wants us to get married soon! I think that I must’ve saved a galaxy in my past life to have such an outstanding love in this lifetime!” Pei Ge earnestly said. She did think of taking an edge of her spirit and warned the woman not to have any ideas regarding her boyfriend as he was hers.
These words were actually her honest feelings.
I must’ve saved a galaxy in my past life to have a boyfriend like Ji Ziming!
