Chapter 1750: I Feel that Two Flowers are Blooming Together
“There’s no need for you to keep me here. I’ve already thought of a solution. If you want to come look for me, come look for me. I know that you’re very capable and the whole capital city can’t escape Ji Ziming’s eyes and yours. Anyway, you’ll know where I go. Since that’s the case, I won’t say anything else.”
Qu Jingwan walked up to Pei Ge and looked at the flower blob in front of her. She praised, “This rose is blooming really well. It’s even blooming better than the roses in the Qu family’s courtyard. It’s just a pity that the roses beside it are blooming much better if they are not beside this rose.”
“I think the two flowers look better together.”
Pei Ge shook her head and looked at the roses. She plucked one, but her slender fingers were bleeding from the thorns of the roses.
“You…”
“Although this rose is good, if you want to remove it, you’ll have to pay a price. For example, my fingers are broken now, so you should understand that it’s best not to touch anything that doesn’t belong to you.”
Pei Ge’s voice was cold as she looked at the roses and Qu Jingwan beside her. The coldness in her eyes was terrifying.
“What is this? Are you afraid that I’ll steal your things?”
There was a hint of surprise in Qu Jingwan’s eyes but she did not know when she snatched Pei Ge’s things. Could it be Ji Ziming? Could it be Ji family’s property? However, everything was now in Pei Ge’s hands. What exactly was it that she snatched?
“You’ll know what you stole from me in the future.”
Pei Ge’s voice was calm as she threw away the rose in her hand. The red blood on her fingertips was even more shocking. Compared to her fair skin, this blood was even more eye-catching than the red rose.
“Alright. I’d like to see what I stole from you. I hope you can tell me when the time comes and not act like this.”
“Okay, I’ll definitely tell you when the time comes. I’ll even make you return everything that belongs to me.”
Pei Ge’s voice was light as she looked elsewhere. The roses in the flower bed were still as beautiful as before, but after a night, they were no longer as fresh and beautiful.
“Sure, tell me when.”
Qu Jingwan nodded and looked at the roses that Pei Ge had thrown into the flower blob with pity. Her voice was surprisingly gentle.
“Pei Ge, have you ever thought of what will happen if Ji Ziming really gets together with me?”
“That’s impossible. Even if I’m not here right now, Ji Ziming won’t take a liking to you because you two are not compatible.”
Pei Ge laughed and her lips curled up even more.
“Are you that sure?”
Qu Jingwan was shocked. How much courage did this woman have to believe all of this while she was just a clown? She could not even touch the woman standing before her as though she was high above the clouds.
“I’m very sure because I know what Ji Ziming is thinking. Don’t think that such a thing will happen. It’s better for you to worry about your future now. For example, what should you do in the Qu family?”
Pei Ge pursed her lips and smiled. Looking at Qu Jingwan in front of her, her voice was suddenly filled with gentleness. “Qu Jingwan, you’re actually great in everything. You’re just born in the wrong family.”
Qu Jingwan was shocked. She had said a lot of nonsense today, but she was no longer thinking of what to do. She had already achieved her motive for looking for Pei Ge.
Everything that would happen next time had nothing to do with her.
“Alright, I’ll leave now. You can take your time. Also, Pei Ge, don’t be too confident. Otherwise, you’ll be stepped on by others sooner or later. There’s an old saying: retribution isn’t absent; it’s just that it’s not the right time yet.”
“Alright, I’ll remember your words.”
Pei Ge looked at Qu Jingwan coldly.
Qu Jingwan did not say anything else and merely looked at the rose in the flower blob. What exactly did she take from Pei Ge to make the latter so jealous?
How scary was this woman? She was so scary that Qu Jingwan wondered if the Pei Ge she knew back then was the same person or if the Pei Ge she knew had always had two faces.
Pei Ge watched as Qu Jingwan’s back view slowly disappeared from her sight. Should she call this woman laughable or pitiful?
Just as Pei Ge was playing games with the three children in the room, Ji Ziming ran back, panting.
The door to the room opened with a bang. Pei Ge and the three children, who were in the room, jumped in shock and raised their heads to look at Ji Ziming, who was standing at the door. Their shock was identical.
“Daddy, why are you back?”
Ran Ran’s question broke the long awkwardness as she blinked at Ji Ziming.
“Ge Ge, come out; I have something to say to you.”
Ji Ziming’s voice was hurried and his chest was still heaving.
“What are you going to tell me?”
Pei Ge was confused. Qu Jingwan had only left for less than two hours and Ji Ziming had already returned. She was surprised by how many things were going to happen today.
“Follow me to my room.”
Ji Ziming’s expression was solemn as he looked at Pei Ge anxiously before returning to Pei Ge’s room.
“Okay.”
After consoling the three children for a while, Pei Ge stood up from the carpet and walked to the room beside her. She opened the door and walked in, only to be hugged tightly by Ji Ziming.
“What’s wrong? Why are you so scared? Did something happen?”
Shocked by his state, she frowned and asked, “Tell me; what’s wrong with you?”
“Ge Ge, I had a dream in the office this afternoon. I dreamed that you went to the Qu family yourself and was tortured by Old lady Qu in the basement. No matter how I called you, you didn’t wake up. No matter how I hit you, you didn’t wake up.”
Ji Ziming’s voice was choked with sobs.
Pei Ge was touched. She did not expect her man to be so worried about her comfort. Even though he had already gone to the company, his heart was still with her, even though she had been at home and had never left the house.
“Silly, I’m fine. I’m fine at home. Don’t worry.”
Although she was touched, she still hugged him tightly.
