Provocative Fiery Wife: My Superior is an Affectionate Spitfire - Chapter 777
Chapter 777: Ziming, we must head home and have dinner with your parents.
“It’s been awhile since I returned, but I still haven’t visited uncle and auntie. I’d like to pay them a visit today.”
She smiled gently at him.
Since her return from overseas, she had been busy trying to win him over and brainstorming on ways to deal with Pei Ge. It was only after she was done with all her matters and the new year celebration was over that she remembered about his parents.
This man’s parents were not fond of her. His father even went to the extent of forcing her to leave China and stay in New York. Hence, allowing Pei Ge, that woman who should not have even appeared, to snatch Ji Ziming away from her.
However, it was still necessary for Qiao Jingyun to put up a pretense.
“Sigh… It’s been really hectic since I returned home. You’re also aware of my family’s vexing issues, so I’ve been unable to visit uncle and auntie even now. Please don’t get angry.”
She pursed her red lips and eyed him carefully.
Although he still appeared cold, he did not say anything unfriendly when he saw her timid look.
“You don’t have to visit them.”
He glanced at her briefly.
Qiao Jingyun and my parents can’t get along.
It would be better for her not to meet them to avoid causing unhappiness to both parties.
Since she had an ulterior motive, she could not possibly agree to it.
Thus, she smiled gently at him. “That can’t do! How can I be so unfilial not to visit them when they treat me so well?
“Ziming, I’ll go home with you tonight. I really miss uncle and auntie.”
“…” His brows furrowed slightly. He gave it a thought as he saw her earnest look and eventually agreed.
After all, his parents watched her grow up. Furthermore, in the past, his father forced her to leave for New York. Now that she was back, it was only appropriate for her to visit them.
“Yay! Once you knock off work, we’ll head home together!”
She exclaimed excitedly when she saw him nod in agreement.
“I won’t be coming up here tonight! I’ll just wait for you at the company’s entrance!”
She flitted out of his office like a butterfly.
It appeared as though she were afraid of him going back on his words; thus, she quickly left without saying goodbye.
Seeing her disappear from his sight, Ji Ziming was not concerned at all. He did not care much about her and just kept reading the files before him.
Qiao Jingyun put on a smile all the way and even waved goodbye to the Ji Group’s employees as she left his office.
The moment she got into her car, that elegant smile on her face vanished.
In its place was a frosty look.
Fuming with anger, she narrowed her eyes.
Sitting in the driver’s seat for a while, she managed to rein in her anger. She fished out her phone and called a number.
The person on the other end picked up the call after ringing for a bit.
“Hello. What’s the matter?”
The voice from the other end belonged to no one else but Pei Shishi.
As Qiao Jingyun heard her antagonistic tone, she let out a sardonic smirk.
“Sister Shishi, have you settled that matter that I asked you to do?”
“Yes, but… Zhuoyang can’t compare to Ji Ziming. If you wanna make use of him to sour Pei Ge and Ji Ziming’s relationship, it’s just wishful thinking!”
Despite her sarcasm, she calmly replied, “Wistful thinking? He he… Sister Shishi, aren’t you still supporting me? Saying such things about me is the same as saying that about yourself.”
“… Why on Earth did you make me send my fiancé to Tianjin to compete with my cousin for a project? Don’t tell me that you’re trying to get the two to rekindle their romance? Let me tell you; based on my understanding of my cousin, she won’t have any lingering feelings for Zhuoyang. She will never fall again for the man who betrayed her once!”
Qiao Jingyun’s mocking expression became even more apparent upon hearing that.
What a stupid person!
This woman can only always be schemed on.
“Sister Shishi, do you think that I’ll be that stupid to use your fiancé for a honey trap? Aren’t you thinking too stupidly?”
She coldly sneered. “I can’t be bothered to explain it all to you, but I can tell you that once your fiancé goes there, our plan will begin properly.
“I love casting long lines to catch a big fish. We will slowly lay out our schemes one by one. Only by doing so will we have the sense of satisfaction when we reel in the fish…”
On the other end, Pei Shishi shuddered for some reason when she heard that.
This woman really isn’t to be trifled with!
“Anyway, you shouldn’t fret over it! You’ll still have my back regardless of the situation. You just have to wait until your cousin loses all her reputation and see how she and Ji Ziming start hating each other! Ha ha!”
Qiao Jingyun laughed triumphantly even though her plan had just begun. However, seemingly having obtained victory, her laughter grew louder.
Her laughter made the other woman fearful.
She began to doubt whether it was the correct decision to work with her or not…
Nonetheless, what was done could not be undone. There was no going back now since the plan had already been set into motion…
The night grew dark quickly.
Many office workers, who had knocked off, streamed out of their office buildings.
At this moment, at the entrance to the Ji Group headquarters, there stood an elegant and beautiful lady in an expensive fur coat.
This lady was well-recognized to the employees as Qiao Jingyun, who had just been to the company earlier this morning.
Many employees cast doubtful glances on her as she stood there smiling.
Most were puzzled why she was standing at the entrance.
Not before long, everyone understood her reason for standing by the lobby.
“Ziming, I’m already at the lobby on the first floor. Come down soon! We still have to go home and have dinner with your parents tonight!”
