Provocative Fiery Wife: My Superior is an Affectionate Spitfire - Chapter 1206
Chapter 1206: My patience is limited.
The more Pei Ge ate, the less appetite she had. Every dish was her favorite and suited her taste.
However…
“I’m full. Mr. Ji, you and your girlfriend can continue eating; I’ll take my leave now.”
She put down her chopsticks and smiled at the couple politely.
“Ah? Boss, you’re full? I didn’t see you eating a lot, though.”
“Yes, I’m full. Thanks for hosting me.”
She smiled and stood up.
Not wanting to waste her breath this time, she moved to leave.
Ji Ziming did not stop her and, instead, stood up as well.
“I’ll send you off.”
“You don’t have to. Just accompany your girlfriend here,” she rejected, not wanting to interact with him further.
“Never mind; never mind. I don’t need company. Ziming, you can go send my boss off.”
The other woman waved them off with a friendly grin.
“…”
The doubt in her heart heightened when she saw this familiar smile.
Not only just their looks, even… their expressions and actions were identical. This was way too strange.
No matter how unwilling she was to be with this man, she could only sit in his car eventually.
“Where have you been recently?”
The man was finally more ‘normal’ once there were just the two of them. At the very least, he was not as aloof to her as before.
“My matters seem not to have anything to do with Mr. Ji, though?”
Pei Ge merely smiled and did not intend to give an answer.
“…”
Being given the cold shoulder by her, the man became much colder.
Nevertheless, she was not one to be cowed so easily. After being around those big bosses with big attitudes on Wall Street for years, she was no longer easily intimidated.
“She’ll arrive at your place on time tomorrow for work.”
Following the silence between them, the man spoke to her again.
Although he did not mention the other woman’s name, she knew who he was referring to.
“Sorry, but if she comes for work tomorrow, she’ll definitely be barred entry by the security. I trust that you won’t want your girlfriend to be embarrassed like that.”
Pei Ge smiled coldly. She did not sound to be joking.
“…”
Seeing his silence, she felt disinterested.
She turned to look coldly at him, saying, “Mr. Ji, I just don’t get it; why must you arrange for her to work by my side? Minghao doesn’t have anything that you may want.”
“…” The man merely kept his mum, his dark eyes darkening.
He stared at her until she started feeling uncomfortable before he looked away.
“Shouldn’t this question be for you?”
Didn’t you plant that woman by my side?
“For me? What for me?”
She was thrown into confusion by his words. She frowned and thought that they sounded strange.
However, the man stopped talking after saying that. Instead, he sat there in silence and did not look at her again.
Therefore, regardless of her many questions inside, she did not ask them aloud after seeing his cold face.
They remained quiet all the whole way.
They had no interaction whatsoever except when they reached her apartment and she got out of his car.
“Thanks for the meal and the ride. Goodbye.”
“…Goodbye.”
Seeing the woman enter her apartment without looking back, Ji Ziming narrowed his eyes with coldness nearly overflowing from them.
“Pei Ge…”
If you intend to play this game, I can be patient and accompany you, but remember that… my patience is limited.
Only after she had entered her house did she relax.
She removed her clothes and headed to the bathroom for a shower before putting on her pajamas and lying in her comfortable bed.
She got anxious as she recalled how things had unfolded ever since she returned from overseas.
Besides the appearance of a person who looked like her past self, the man’s attitude toward her was strange.
“Sigh!”
Just thinking about it made her head hurt; hence, she sighed and stared at the ceiling blankly.
“I’d better settle my uncle’s family and head back to New York as soon as possible…”
She seemed to have renewed her resolve at this thought.
Still… Now was not the time to be in a rush.
Her mood had improved at this point.
Sitting up on the bed, she turned on her expensive laptop and began surfing the forums.
She easily saw a thread at the top of a forum page.
[The Reason behind Pei Family Real Estate’s Chief’s Compassion]
Seeing this thread, a bright smile surfaced on her face.
Tsk! Cousin’s tactics are still the same as five years ago.
She recalled how Pei Shishi had started that rumor about her five years ago.
Today, she still chose the same method to deal with her biological father.
Of course, this time around, her cousin was not starting a rumor and was, instead, revealing the truth.
From the thread, she raised her brow when she read about all her uncle’s dirty deeds, which his daughter had revealed.
There was one thing her cousin kept hidden, and that was how her uncle had killed her father back then…
Hah. Seems that the fire isn’t raging enough…
Maybe it’s time for me to add oil to the fire.
If not, cousin wouldn’t be so desperate to pull uncle into the abyss with her.
The moment she thought of this, her eyes brightened up.
Uncle, everything you took from my father, I would get them back one by one…
That’s why you should cherish the limited happiness you have left…
