Chapter 1096: She is your fiancée; why are you looking for her to me?
The night was completely dark.
New York tonight was darker than all nights before.
There was not a star in the sky. Since it was very late, the lights in the streets were dimmed.
Tang Xiaoyu fell asleep early and did not expect to meet Ji Ziming officially at such a time.
“Not sure what brings Mr. Ji here?”
The couple, clad in their pajamas, looked coldly at the man sitting on the sofa.
One was Pei Ge’s best friend and another was her secret admirer.
Therefore, they naturally detested seeing this man who had hurt the woman.
“Pei Ge, where is she?”
Sitting on the sofa, the man looked coldly at her while completely ignoring the guy, who kept giving him a look of detest.
“He he… You’re being funny. Are you here at my place to look for her? Aren’t you her fiancé?”
She scoffed at him before sarcastically saying that.
The man seemed not to have heard her mockery as he stared fervently at her and repeated himself. “Where is she?”
“No idea.” Antagonized by his attitude, she replied in an unfriendly manner. “Although I don’t know why you came to our place out of the blue, like what my girlfriend has said, Pei Ge is your fiancée and not ours.”
Seeing his girlfriend’s emotion getting odd, Gu Zhengrong hugged her shoulders gently.
“Your fiancée is missing yet you’re asking us for her. It seems that… you’ve come to the wrong place.” He told Ji Ziming coldly with a mocking look.
The atmosphere instantly froze as soon as he finished speaking.
“Whether I did or not, you know it clearly.” All of a sudden, Ji Ziming stood up from the sofa and looked at him coldly.
“What are we clear about? If you think that we’re hiding her, then bring evidence! Let me tell you: Given your bad manners, I can sue you for trespassing to our place!”
Seeing his tough stance, Tang Xiaoyu was infuriated. She stood up from the sofa and stared at him as though her eyes were spewing fire.
Right now, she really wanted to curse this man but knew that she could not fumble the ball at this point!
Although she thought that there was no need for her best friend to avoid this man, she was still upset by his attitude.
“Please leave.”
Her boyfriend got up and gestured the man out.
Despite them trying to chase him out, the man kept his cold face as he shot them a calm look.
Eventually, he did not say anything and left the place.
However, he left not because they succeeded in chasing him out but because he knew that the woman was not there.
Looking at his receding back, Tang Xiaoyu snorted with a spiteful look on her face.
“He looks decent but is actually a scum with a dog-like attitude.”
“Alright. Let’s go back to sleep. Don’t contact your best friend over the next few days.”
As he said this, Gu Zhengrong returned to his room with a worried look.
“I just don’t understand it. What of that jerk finding out where she is…”
…
Pak!
As the car door closed, the little assistant, who was napping, woke up instantly.
“S-Sir!”
Seeing Ji Ziming enter the car, he completely woke up.
The moment he saw the dark expression on his boss’s face, which was as beautiful as the night, he became alert.
“Have you settled your matter, sir? Can…” Head back now?
The man cut him off with those cold eyes of his.
“I want you to investigate something.”
“Huh? Okay, sir.”
The little assistant felt awful inside. It was almost morning! He had not slept a wink yet, so why could this great CEO not let him have a good night’s sleep before settling the matter?!
While the sleepless people were busy, Pei Ge had a beautiful sleep.
As the first sun rays shone into the room this morning, she slowly roused from her slumber.
Opening her eyes, her mood became even better when she saw the golden hue in the room.
“Haaaa!”
She yawned. The first thing she did was to rest her hand on her stomach and greet her babies.
“Good morning, mommy’s little ones.”
She broke into a bright smile.
Her hand could sense the fetal movement inside as though in response to her greeting.
Her mood became better at how energetic her children were being even before they came out to this world.
After whispering to her babies, she was about to call her best friend.
Who knew that, before she could reach for her phone, someone would knock at her door first?
Knock, knock, knock!
Hearing the series of knocks, she thought, If not the doctor, it should be Xiaoyu.
Hence, she put on her slippers and walked to the door.
In the end, when she opened it, she saw that the person standing outside was neither the doctor nor her best friend but…
“Shen Rui?”
She stared at the handsome man in disbelief. He was standing upright at her doorstep and looking at her with a bright smile.
What is he doing here?
“Morning, Pei Ge.”
She blinked her eyes at his words, confusion written all over her face.
“What are you doing here?”
Could her best friend be trying to matchmake her with this guy? That Tang Xiaoyu, I really don’t know what to say about her!
“I’m here to bring you to Cambridge.”
“Huh?”
