Chapter 1732: I Thought that I would Definitely be Gentler to You
Ji Ziming did this purely to make Pei Ge forget about the harm he had caused her. As her pants would cause friction, she chose a beige silk dress. The loose-fitting dress accentuated her fair skin.
“Ge Ge, are you feeling better?”
Ji Ziming asked gently as he stood behind her and zipped up her dress.
“I feel better, but you must remember not to touch me for a month.”
There was a smug look in Pei Ge’s eyes. She would not believe that Ji Ziming would not touch her for a month, even if she was beaten to death. If he did not touch her for a month, it was very likely that either of them would die.
No one wanted to see such an outcome.
“I understand. I thought that I would be gentler to you.”
Ji Ziming did not notice that Pei Ge’s smile quickly returned to normal. The smugness in her eyes also returned to normal when he turned to look at her.
“Ge Ge, are you done packing?”
Ji Ziming stood at the door and watched Pei Ge clean up the clothes on the sofa. He said in a low voice, “You don’t have to clean up the clothes. I’ll get someone to help with the housework.”
“There’s no need to find someone. I can do it myself. It’s not like I need someone to clean it up.”
She shook her head and rejected his suggestion.
As the sunlight shone on her, Pei Ge’s side profile appeared in front of Ji Ziming. The translucent, fine hair on her nose was swaying in the breeze. Her fair skin was extremely soft and beautiful. In Ji Ziming’s eyes, it was even more gentle and cute.
“Ge Ge.”
“What’s wrong?”
Pei Ge raised her head and met Ji Ziming’s deep eyes. Her pink lips curled up slightly. “Is there something on my face?”
“No.”
Ji Ziming pursed his lips and looked at Pei Ge with gentleness.
“We’re done. Let’s go down.”
With that, he turned around and walked downstairs, waiting for her to prepare a delicious lunch. Pei Ge, who was still in the room, was a little confused. Has Ji Ziming changed?
Once she was done tidying up the room, she went downstairs and into the kitchen. Ji Ziming was sitting on the sofa in the living room, using a tablet PC to settle the company’s matters. Only then did she remember that her company’s matters were still under his management. She then walked to his side and her clean face was filled with seriousness.
“Ziming, let me ask you; have you found a partner for my company?”
“I found it. I guarantee you’ll be satisfied.”
Ji Ziming raised his head and looked at Pei Ge with a pair of deep eyes and a gentle aura.
“Okay, give me the information on that partner. I’ll compare them.”
Pei Ge placed her hands on her dress and sat beside Ji Ziming. She looked at him seriously and continued, “When we get back, I’ll talk to this partner about our plan.”
“There’s no need to look for it.”
Ji Ziming pursed his thin lips and looked at Pei Ge. He swung his arm behind her back and hugged her tightly. “Ge Ge, do you really want to know about this partner?”
“Yes, of course, but you’re unwilling to tell me now.”
Pei Ge pouted and rolled her eyes at Ji Ziming. She shifted her gaze from Ji Ziming to the tablet PC in his hand. On the screen was the news of Qu Jingwan causing so much trouble in Ji Group.
“This news…”
The news was so huge that Qu Jingwan probably did not dare to leave the house.
“What’s wrong with the news?”
Ji Ziming looked at Pei Ge with his deep eyes, not caring that the news in his hands had already created a huge black hole in Pei Ge’s heart. This black hole was slowly developing and when another piece of news appeared, there would be a huge explosion.
“Don’t you care who leaked Qu Jingwan’s scandal in the company?”
Pei Ge frowned and looked at Ji Ziming. She did not understand what he was thinking. Did she have to ask him personally before he would tell her what effect this news had on Ji Group?
“So what?”
Ji Ziming’s voice was cold and his eyes were filled with love as he looked at Pei Ge. Her shy and angry look was also very adorable. She was the cutest person he had ever seen.
“Don’t you care? This is very damaging to the Ji Group. As the company’s CEO, are you really not concerned?”
She was a little nervous and uneasy.
“What I want is always her. Nothing else matters.”
Ji Ziming pursed his lips and looked at Pei Ge lovingly. “Ge Ge, do you know who I’m talking about?”
Pei Ge saw that Ji Ziming’s voice was filled with joy, but it was hidden so well that Ji Ziming did not know. “I know. Not only do I know, I also know him very well.”
“Oh? Then tell me.”
Ji Ziming’s thin lips curled up as he looked at Pei Ge with a peaceful expression.
“She is me.”
She did not speak further and merely looked at him.
“Mhm, well said.”
Ji Ziming nodded and agreed with Pei Ge’s point of view. He only looked at her before shifting his gaze back to the tablet PC. The words on it described Qu Jingwan as evil and unbearable.
“Ziming, aren’t you going to give an explanation for this news?”
Pei Ge was in a dilemma. What was Ji Ziming thinking? Why was he not anxious when the company was facing such a huge PR crisis? He even seemed like he was watching a good show.
“What explanation do I need to make? I didn’t do anything wrong, so why should I apologize?”
Ji Ziming scrolled and it showed another city’s headlines.
“Ziming, tell me; did you purposely leak this news to the media? If not, with Ji Group’s strict management system, who would get such private news?”
Pei Ge could not help but suspect. Ji Ziming did not seem to care about his company’s dirty secrets. He would not be this calm unless he was the one who orchestrated the incident.
“Have you only realized it now? My little fool, as long as they want this kind of news, I can give them a lot of it. As long as they want it, I can write any kind of news for them, but only you can’t. I can’t let anyone slander you or let them bully you. Only by doing this can I prove that you are my wife.”
Ji Ziming lowered his head and looked at the screen in his hands. His voice was gentle and his sense of security made Pei Ge gasp in surprise.
