Provocative Fiery Wife: My Superior is an Affectionate Spitfire - Chapter 1080
Chapter 1080: Who exactly is that man?
On this particular day in the month of July, the weather was warm and bright with it being the peak of summer.
Summer in New York had always been rather warm.
Pei Ge, who constantly stayed indoors and would only occasionally venture outdoors when she felt like relaxing in the adjacent small garden, only realized how hot the summer was in this state the moment she went out with her best friend.
Thankfully, the two ladies managed to hail a cab the moment they exited the door and the air conditioning in their destination was set high.
If not, being unaccustomed to the heat, she might have gotten a heat stroke.
“Xiaoyu, I’ll go with the doctor to do a full-body checkup now.”
When it came to that, her best friend could only wait for her outside due to the hospital regulations.
“Okay, you go ahead. Remember to come get me once it’s time for your ultrasound. Just give me a call if you don’t see me.”
At the moment, Tang Xiaoyu’s attention was entirely focused on her godchildren.
“Yes, yes!” The other waved happily at her.
She got her phone out of boredom after Pei Ge went with the doctor.
[Dear Zhengrong, where are you?] She sent the man this message.
Alas, there was no reply even long after so long.
He must be working, she muttered to herself.
She set her phone aside, not wanting to disturb him with her texts.
“Haaaa!”
She stretched her back and looked at the time, feeling bored out of her mind. Calculating the time left for her best friend to complete the full-body checkup, she decided to take a walk.
She left the hallway and headed for the garden outside the hospital.
As she reached the garden, though, she surprisingly saw someone who was not supposed to be here at this moment.
“The next time I come to the hospital, I should bring some games to play, or else it’ll be this boring.” She muttered to herself as she started admiring the flowers in the garden.
Just as she moved to head in a different direction, she saw a certain, familiar figure.
“Aye? Aye, aye, aye?!”
Her Tang Xiaoyu’s eyes widened in disbelief at the tall figure she had caught sight of.
“Zhengrong?!”
She could not believe her eyes. Why was the man who was supposed to be working in his office here?
This was the hospital!
Was he here to see her best friend? She quickly refuted this in the next instant, though.
It was just improbable. The man already said that he had something on, so he could not come with them.
If he wanted to come, he would do so then. As such, she was sure that the man was not here for her best friend.
At this, she stopped speculating and just happily bounded to him.
“Zhengrong!”
Once she was close enough, she lunged at him.
At this moment, the man was talking to the guy next to him and did not react in time.
By the time he raised his head, he found that something soft had wrapped around him.
“…”
Feeling the hands around his waist, he frowned instinctively.
“Xiaoyu…”
“Didn’t you say that you had something today? Why are you doing here, then?”
After rubbing herself to him affectionately, she raised her head at him.
“Let go first; I still have—”
The woman did not wait for him to finish speaking and interrupted with a complaint.
“You don’t know. Pei Ge and I came here just for an ultrasound, but the doctor had her do a full-body checkup. It’s taking them forever, and I’m so bored.”
Seeing that she did not intend to let go, his frown deepened.
What the pair did not expect, though, was for the guy next to Gu Zhengrong to join in on their conversation.
This man seemed to know Pei Ge, too! More importantly, he showed agitation!
“You’re Tang Xiaoyu!”
The unfamiliar male voice pulled the grumbling woman back to reality.
“Eh? Do you know me?”
She only noticed the guy next to her boyfriend then.
“You’re Tang Xiaoyu, alright!”
Having received a reply, the man’s blue eyes lit up. They looked especially bright as if stars were in them.
This was the first time Gu Zhengrong had seen such a strong reaction from the man.
“Yes. Do we know each other?”
Looking at excitement on the man’s face, she still did not have any impression of him.
“The ‘Ge Ge’ you spoke of is Pei Ge, right?”
The man went on, ignoring her question.
She only truly focused on him once he mentioned her best friend’s name.
“How do you know her? Who exactly are you?”
For him to know both of them, this man could only be their classmate in elementary or middle school, yet he appeared not to fit either.
She dared to say that she had excellent memory and remembered all her classmates in elementary, let alone in middle school.
If this man were one of their classmates, there was no way she would not remember him.
Besides, this man… was really good-looking! All the more reason for her not to forget his face!
Even though she only had eyes for her boyfriend, she must admit that this stranger looked a lot better than him!
Although her boyfriend was rather eye-catching in a crowd, the guy standing before her was even more attention-grabbing.
If they really had to compare this guy to someone else, then the only one who could compare to him would be Ji Ziming.
Still… who exactly was he?
