Provocative Fiery Wife: My Superior is an Affectionate Spitfire - Chapter 274
Chapter 274: Tell CEO? Go ahead!
“AHHHH! Wen Wen!”
Lu Huiya screamed when she saw Li Wen collapse and rushed to squat by her side, as though she were concerned.
“Pei Ge, you are too vicious! Wen Wen merely made some comments! Why did you have to hit her? I tell you; if anything happens to her, even if someone is behind you, it’s going to be useless!” Lu Huiya spoke with righteousness and treated Pei Ge like a murderer.
Pei Ge’s eyes flashed with ridicule at her exaggerated reaction. The two women were so weird. There was clearly no friendship between them, yet they still acted like they were close. What a joke.
“When did I hit someone? It’s clearly self-defense.” Pei Ge shot her a look and snorted.
If she had not taken action, her head or face would have been clawed by Li Wen, causing her pain for a few days.
“Don’t bother explaining! He Yan and I saw you slap Wen Wen and push her to the ground!” Lu Huiya glared daggers at her and spoke with anger.
“Don’t drag me into this, Lu Huiya. Also, I did not see Pei Ge hit her first. If Li Wen’s mouth were not so vile, she would not be slapped.” He Yan, who had been silently observing the commotion, spoke up at Lu Huiya’s words. “As for Pei Ge pushing her, I saw Li Wen take the first action.”
“He Yan?!” Lu Huiya’s face turned ugly. She had never expected He Yan to speak in Pei Ge’s defense.
Her face grew uglier by the moment at He Yan’s despicable face.
“I know; you probably want to hug Pei Ge’s—”
Pei Ge quickly interrupted her.
“Hey. I say; are you really concerned for your friend who has collapsed to the ground?” She laughed lightly.
Pei Ge’s question stunned Lu Huiya first and then made her furious. “Of course, I am! I’m telling you; I will definitely report this matter to the company…”
Pei Ge lost interest in watching her ridiculous act. Looking at her mockingly, she asked, “Oh, really? Your girlfriend has been ‘unconscious’ for quite some time already, so why haven’t you called the ambulance yet?”
He Yan laughed while Lu Huiya’s expression turned dark.
Even the expression of the ‘fainted’ Li Wen seemed to stiffen.
Pei Ge, who had been closely observing Li Wen, evidently saw this slight change in expression. However, she already knew that the other was faking it, so she was not at all surprised by it.
“Pei Ge, stop pretending!” Lu Huiya demanded.
She knew that Li Wen was putting on an act and wanted to take advantage of it. Once they made the matter worse, the woman accompanying Ji Ziming to the banquet would then be her.
Who knew that her perfect plan was actually ruined by He Yan who had taken Pei Ge’s side?!
Forget it! Besides, since Li Wen, this fool, has fainted, even if He Yan stands as a ‘witness’, it won’t matter much.
With this thought in mind, Lu Huiya’s confidence in her plan grew.
“I will definitely inform CEO Ji about this matter!”
“Pui!” Pei Ge burst into laughter at Lu Huiya acting righteous.
Aiyo, why did she sound like a student about to tell on another classmate to a teacher?
“Alright, you go ahead, then.”
Lu Huiya paled with anger at her words and how unfazed she was by the entire situation.
“Before that, you should call an ambulance to help your girlfriend who has fainted. Ze, if you are not going to do so, I’ll just make a call on your behalf.” Pei Ge then picked up her phone and started calling the emergency hotline.
Lu Huiya could not stand still anymore when she saw Pei Ge’s action. Her eyes fidgeted as she thought of ways to salvage the situation.
Pei Ge was being difficult. If the ambulance arrived, then this show would end.
How could she not understand this woman, Li Wen? How could she really have fainted? Of course, she was faking it!
Hmph, it’s so stupid.
“Hello, I have a colleague who has fainted…”
Hearing that Pei Ge had really called for an ambulance and had informed the person on the phone of the company’s address, Lu Huiya felt that time was running out.
Her eyes stared fiercely at Pei Ge. She was about to head to the CEO’s office to complain when Ji Ziming’s cold voice was heard from behind her.
“What’s going on here?” He coldly eyed the secretaries in the room. He seemed to be suppressing his anger.
His sudden appearance shocked the three, and they returned to their senses at his question.
“CEO Ji, Wen Wen is really pitiful.” Lu Huiya, who was already planning to complain to him, was the fastest to react at his voice.
Although she spoke first among the three of them, he did not even look in her direction and, instead, focused entirely on Pei Ge.
Being the recipient of his stare, Pei Ge naturally knew that his attention was on her? His gaze seemed to be filled with unhappiness and anger, though.
Seriously, what was wrong with this annoying person? Why did he use such eyes to look at me?
She lowered her head in discomfort.
Lu Huiya was completely engrossed in her acting that she did not notice the interaction between Pei Ge and Ji Ziming and continued to complain with emotion.
“… Wen Wen didn’t do anything but just made some comments on Pei Ge. Unexpectedly, she slapped her and caused her to faint.”
Hmph! She did not believe that Pei Ge would be able to attend the banquet with CEO Ji after this!
Hearing Pei Ge’s name being mentioned, his eyes darted to Lu Huiya before returning to Pei Ge.
“Pei Ge, what do you have to say?” His deep-set eyes bore into hers like a bottomless lake that one could not see the depths of.
