Provocative Fiery Wife: My Superior is an Affectionate Spitfire - Chapter 590

Chapter 590: Hur hur hur! Ji Ziming, you jar of vinegar!

“Try this beverage. This has low alcohol content. It’s specially made to be fruity to cater to women’s taste. You won’t get drunk from drinking it.”

She eyed the wine glass being passed to her. Taken aback, she paused for a moment as she thought of how fast he changed the topic.

When she did not receive it, Mu Heng pushed the glass closer to urge her.

“Oh, tha—”

She moved to accept it, but Ji Ziming suddenly took it away.

Pei Ge: Er? Aye, aye, aye?! That’s my cocktail!

Mu Heng: Hur hur hur! Jar of vinegar! Isn’t it just a glass of cocktail?! Do you need to be this strict?!

The man took the cocktail and then peered at her before laying his sight on him.

“Ziming, why are you looking at me like that? I really have no designs on your Little Chili. It’s just out of habit because I’m used to taking care of women!”

In order not to land in the same plight as Liao Gaofei, this playboy, who had just returned to the country after hiding overseas from the man, perceptively explained himself.

Don’t joke with me! No matter how beautiful Little Chili is, my insignificant life is still more important!

How am I supposed to flirt around with ladies without my life?!

“Hmph!” The man coldly snorted before he returned the cocktail to the waiter’s tray.

“Give her a glass of milk.” He told the waiter.

“…” Milk? For an instant, she could not fathom why the cocktail had been replaced with milk.

“Pfft! Ha ha ha!” Mu Heng guffawed.

“Ziming, why do I feel that Little Chili is not your girlfriend but your daughter, instead? Ha ha ha! Milk? Ha ha! Only you can think of that!”

He bent down mirthfully, not realizing that the couple’s faces had turned black from anger.

“Ha ha! That’s right, Ziming. Why would you drink milk in events like this? Doing that’ll turn you into a joke!” Liao Gaofei also started laughing aloud, clearly unafraid of courting death.

Seeing the two laughing so gleefully, the man’s dark face slowly returned to normal. Still, in his pair of obsidian eyes, a frightening and heart-trembling glint flashed past.

“What are you laughing at?! It’s not funny! Compared to alcohol, this young lady here likes milk more!” She fumed at the sight of the pair laughing so boisterously, sans a care for their image.

These two idiots, what the hell are they laughing at?!

What do you mean this annoying fellow is more like my dad! We are dating, okay?!

“Yes, yes, yes. Our little princess loves milk!” The playboy could not help teasing her.

“… Ziming, look at him! He’s too annoying! What’s wrong with drinking milk?!” Out of pique, she subconsciously grabbed the man’s arm to complain.

However, realizing what she had just done, she froze at once. The listener to her complaint also froze. This was the first time she had ever acted cutesy to him!

“Er!” Quickly regaining her senses, she hastily released his arm.

Sh*t! My brain has short-circuited! Why did I act cutesy to this annoying fellow?! Ah, ah, ah, ah! That’s so disgusting! He must be thinking that I’m disgusting, right?!

Unexpectedly, the man tightly grabbed her hand with his well-defined one.

Eh?

She sillily raised her head to look at him.

Looking into his obsidian orbs, she seemed to spot satisfaction and gentleness.

She blinked profusely, thinking inside, Did I see wrongly?

“Aiya! Can you two stop torturing us single dogs?! You guys are too much!” Liao Gaofei noticed them looking deeply into each other’s eyes and felt as if pink heart bubbles were floating around them.

Screw this! Why didn’t I bring a female partner today? Looking at these two’s PDA, I really… am very envious!

Mu Heng nodded in agreement, thinking the same thing as him.

Sigh, sigh, sigh! Is my brain fried today? Why didn’t I bring a female partner?

Your limbs will never be as pretty and beautiful as your clothes!

Tsk! Forget it. There are many beauties here, anyway. Looks like it’s time for me to go hunting!

Meanwhile, feeling embarrassed by Liao Gaofei’s statement, she struggled to free her hand from Ji Ziming’s and took a few steps back.

At this moment, a waiter stopped before her with the glass of milk.

“Miss, your milk.” The waiter politely smiled at her, respectfully passing the milk in the tray to her.

“Thank you!” She gratefully received it.

In order to avoid the man’s gaze, she lowered her head and focused on drinking the milk.

“Ziming, I’ll go get some fresh air!” Mu Heng put his wine glass down, suavely tidied up his clothes, and then slyly informed his friend this.

The man merely raised a brow at him, seemingly unperturbed that he was going.

“Tsk. What going to get some fresh air? You clearly just want to go fishing for some ladies.” Liao Gaofei nudged his lips before he mercilessly exposed him.

The other could not be bothered with him, though, and simply strode off toward the crowd.

“Hey, wait for me! I’ll go get some fresh air with you!” Seeing him truly leave and spotting Ji Ziming’s icy face, Liao Gaofei felt danger lurking around him!

Wu, wu, wu! My goddess may be beautiful, but my little life is more important!

Hence, the original four-person group turned into a pair.

The man eyed the woman meekly drinking milk with her head bowed and a smile crept into his lips.

This dumb woman…

“Ziming, so you’re here. I’ve been looking for you.” His mood had just turned for the better when a voice shattered his harmonious time with her.

He inclined his head toward the approaching man with displeased eyes.

“… Uncle.”

“You’re busy with that Yuanhe project, right?”

“Mhm…”

She, who was half-heartedly drinking the milk, raised her head when she heard the man discussing a company project with an elder.

Boredom suddenly assailed her the moment he started discussing business with the refined-looking uncle in proper suit.

So boring! Every time I come to events like this, the only redeeming quality is the food. I really don’t get why the rich love setting up business gatherings.

I’m so bored!

Catching sight of some women in the crowd lifting their arms, seemingly discussing their jewelries, she felt wry.

Why do I feel that business gatherings are only held for people to show off?

She shrugged her shoulders and felt even more bored.

She was aimlessly looking around her when her eyes got a glimpse of something. In an instant, her face froze with shock.

That’s…
