Chapter 448: Pei Ge probably saved a galaxy in her previous life.

“CEO Ji, you misunderstood. It’s only a misunderstanding. He he… There won’t be a next time; I promise…” He laughed dryly and turned tail.

Momma! CEO Ji, this inwardly passionate but outwardly cold man, is too frightening! Although I love beauties, my little life is still more important! I’ll just keep my distance from Miss Pei if I ever see her again in the future!

I… will just take my chances again if CEO Ji breaks up with her!

“Hmph!” He coldly snorted at Qiao Xiuqi’s fleeing figure.

This single sound was filled with much disregard and disdain.

However, for some reason, she could sense smugness in his voice.

She blinked and raised her chin to look at this cold-faced CEO.

“What are you looking at?” He caught her staring at him when he lowered his head.

At this, she reflexively answered, “Of course, I’m looking at you! You’re just so handsome!”

“…” He was momentarily taken aback by her reply. Eventually, he recovered and, with a snort, asked, “Dumb woman, are you deaf? Didn’t you hear my instruction earlier?”

She was disconcerted when he suddenly changed the topic. She really could not fathom how the man’s mind worked.

“What?” She blinked at him in confusion, totally failing to notice his slightly red ears.

“Didn’t I tell you not to talk to anyone?!” he growled softly.

Her lips twitched at his angry outburst and habitually rolled her eyes at him.

“I can’t pretend not to hear anything when he’s talking directly to my ears!”How ridiculous! Does this annoying fellow think that I want to converse with that guy? It’s clearly that guy who’s got nothing better to do and came to talk to me! Plus, didn’t he see me not responding to that guy at all?!

“You actually dared to talk back to me?” He narrowed his eyes dangerously at her.

Her anger also rose at his fierce look, and for a moment, she totally forgot her role in his life.

“Ji Ziming, you are too tyrannical! Since you insist on bringing me with you, don’t expect me to stay meekly at one corner! Think about it; with your status, do you expect people not to talk to me when I’m out with you?!”

She snapped at the man, feeling more justified by the second as she talked.

“If you think me talking to others is irritating, then just don’t bring me with you next time!” She coldly harrumphed and glared fiercely at him.

“You!” He was so angry he was speechless and could only press his lips together in a straight line.

Ji Ziming already had a strong presence, while Pei Ge was very eye-catching today.

Hence, their seemingly lovers’ spat quickly drew the attention of many.

Hearing what the two were ‘quarreling’ about, the crowd sighed in exasperation.

“Aiyo! I really didn’t expect CEO Ji to be this possessive. He doesn’t even let his girlfriend talk to others!”

“Indeed! I believe CEO Ji is truly in love this time and will be getting married soon!”

“I really envy Miss Pei right now. I really wonder how many good deeds she did in her past life to snag such a high-caliber and amazing boyfriend!”

“Maybe she saved a country!”

“How is saving a country enough?! I think it’s a galaxy she saved!”

“Pui, pui, pui. You guys are going too far.”

“He he… We are just really excited…”

…

Pei Ge’s rationality returned to her when she heard the buzzing of the crowd. She took a peek at the man, then swept her gaze over to the socialites around them, and immediately deflated.

She cautiously eyed Ji Ziming who was looking displeased and suddenly felt at a loss.

Right now, I’m this annoying fellow’s wife, so we should be showing off our love to the crowd, yet I ended up quarreling with him, instead!

The clear-headed her really wanted to smack herself right at this moment.

“Are you clear-headed now?” The man snorted when he caught sight of the frustration in her eyes.

She was instantly made speechless by him.

Hmph! Childish! she muttered inwardly.

“Mhm. Totally clear,” she replied softly.

Her obedience made him feel better.

“But, Ziming, since I am your partner at this kind of events, I will still end up talking to people. It’s gonna be pretty rude if I don’t respond when people talk to me,” she reasoned, blinking at him.

“Mhm. I’ll be with you next time,” he replied indifferently.

The corner of her lips twitched at his reply.

The heck?! What’s with his reply? What does he mean by being with me next time?!

Hur hur! Doesn’t that mean I can only talk to others when he’s beside me?!

Unbelievable!

The pair did not linger around after Qiao Xiuqi’s incident.

While everyone else was still trying to chat one another up over drinks, she followed the man out of the grand banquet hall.

Ding!

Their elevator ride was calm and peaceful this time. Quickly reaching the ground floor, the two left the skyscraper hotel.

“CEO Ji, Miss Pei.”

She spotted Du Wen standing respectfully by the car the moment they exited the hotel. He even astutely opened the car door for them.

She carefully hopped in to the car after the man.

Pak! Once the door was closed and the assistant got into the driver’s seat, Ji Ziming spoke.

“Go to Lily’s.”

“Yes, CEO Ji.” Du Wen stepped on the accelerator and drove in the direction of Lily’s salon.

She watched the car steadily drive past several scenic views, the silence in the car calming her heart.

As she was enjoying the peace and quiet, the man’s low yet clear voice streamed into her ears.

“Someone will pick you up at your house tomorrow.”
