Provocative Fiery Wife: My Superior is an Affectionate Spitfire - Chapter 1708
Chapter 1708: Do not worry; you have me.
Ji Ziming hugged Pei Ge tightly and entered the VIP elevator for the CEO. It was only then that the smell of breakfast dissipated.
When they approached the VIP elevator, the two security officers nearby spotted the couple walking over. They hurriedly opened the elevator doors, so when the pair reached the elevator, the doors were already opened.
The man’s arm moved from being draped across her shoulders to holding her hand. He gripped her hand tightly as though afraid of losing her.
“Alright, there’s no one now.”
The elevator doors closed, and she tried to break free from his hold but realized that she could not. In the end, Pei Ge could only let him hold her tightly.
“I’m not letting go. I won’t let go of your hand for the rest of my life.”
After saying this, the man pinned her against the cold, metallic wall. Thankfully, she was wearing a thick jacket, so she did not feel the chill coming from the wall.
“Why are you coming so close to me? Hurry up and let go.”
She dipped her head and the familiar scent lingered around her nose.
“Why? Afraid that I’ll do something to you?”
All of a sudden, Ji Ziming decided to be playful. Looking at the little woman’s blushing face, he broke into an evil yet enchanting smile.
“Why aren’t you speaking anymore? Tell me: Are you afraid that I’ll do something to you?”
His voice was aloof with a hint of allure. His arms locked her body as he asked, “Ge Ge, what are you afraid of?”
“What can I be afraid of? We’re in public, after all; if you continue to behave like this and others see, it’ll…”
Pei Ge suddenly turned speechless. This was his family’s shopping mall and his VIP elevator. Why would anyone see and spread news about this? As long as Ji Ziming was unwilling, he could make any person disappear easily.
“That’s right, so what do you want to say?”
The man smiled. He did not expect his little woman to care so much for him. Although they had been together for quite some time, everything was just like when they first met.
The most beautiful form of love was simply this.
She struggled to break free from his hold, but no matter how hard she tried, she could not push him away. Even when she crouched, she still could not escape from his arms.
“Woman, I’ve told you, time and again, not to try leaving my side, for I’ll never let you go again.”
He smiled. This little woman was as adorable as ever.
“Alright, alright, alright. I won’t try to leave; I promise not to leave you.”
Her pink lips were slightly puffed, and that tickled his heart. He had the urge to gently plant a kiss on her lips—a kiss that had no lust involved, only love.
They headed to the highest level of the mall where the haute couture store was located. Before they even reached the store, they could already hear the supervisors reprimanding the new interns.
“Why couldn’t you complete such a small task?”
“What did I need you for in the store, then?”
“If you spoil Madam Sun’s clothes during the wash, are you able to compensate her?”
Pei Ge’s fingers under Ji Ziming’s hold curled. That was because, back when she was still an intern in her second uncle’s company, she had also diligently done every task assigned to her, but for some reason, her works had never satisfied her superiors.
“Don’t worry; you have me.”
It was as though the man had sensed her change in mood, for his cold aura had suddenly become stronger.
“I…”
She did not continue speaking because it did not matter anymore.
“With me around, you don’t have to fret over anything.”
Ji Ziming smilingly reassured. He did not want his woman to be living under the scrutiny of others, and because of him, there would not be such a Pei Ge. She just had to stay behind him and be his little woman.
He held her hand and entered the store while the staff inside was kneeling on the floor and packing the new stocks for today. They did not receive news that their CEO and his wife would be coming over to inspect the store, so it was still in its usual hasty state.
“Good morning, sir, ma’am!”
Although they did not receive news of this surprised inspection, the store manager, Xu Huihui, attentively spotted the couple at the entrance. She stopped reprimanding the interns and appeared as though she were earnestly instructing them in front of the man.
“Morning. Have you guys just started work?”
He smiled as the two salespersons beside him brought chairs for the couple to take a seat. However, the man did not sit down and merely looked at Xu Huihui, which sent a shiver down the latter’s spine.
She had sent Pei Ge the wrong clothes, and the couple also overheard her reprimanding the staff. Furthermore, the intern who delivered the clothes to the woman had had an untimely death… The feng shui of the store did not seem to be good recently as issues kept occurring.
“Who is the store manager here?”
Ji Ziming snorted; his frosty aura started to diffuse in the room.
“I-I am; sir, are there any instructions?”
Xu Huihui hurriedly stepped forth. Her terrified gaze was met with Pei Ge’s disdainful look. This type of person was meek toward the brutal and brutal toward the meek, always acting as though she were the sky.
Alas, such people would always win the favors of the bosses.
“You’re the store manager?”
The man appeared to be in disbelief. He then observed her from head to toe before asking, “Did the reprimand earlier come from you?”
“Yes. The new intern didn’t understand the rules and stained Sun Group’s Madam Sun’s clothes with dye, so I…”
Xu Huihui told the truth. There were simply too many troubling matters for the past two days, and she could not handle all of them on her own.
“Since that’s the case, where is that intern?”
He nodded and pulled the chair closer to him before sitting on it.
“Sir, it’s that girl beside you. She’s new, having recently graduated from a well-known university, but she’s sloppy with her work. What do you intend for us to do?”
Xu Huihui mustered up her courage and asked the man what his intentions were, but the latter merely shot a cold glance at her. With that, she dared not speak another word and stood on the same spot while trembling in fear.
