Chapter 131
The melodious sound of the violin continued to play in the background inside Blues Coffee . Although he was slightly weirded out by her words, Chen Zhengchu continued to smile at the woman sitting opposite him .

Pei Ge, for her part, began to slightly regret making that suggestion when Chen Zhengchu remained very calm and unresponsive to it . Perhaps, he just did not like her enough .
He was very eligible, after all, so his expectations must also be high .
“Mr . Chen, please do not mind me; I just find you rather suitable, so I made the suggestion . I just don’t want to go on blind dates anymore,” she said, looking abashed .
“No worries . I actually feel the same—” Before he could finish his words, a cold male voice cut in .
“Pei Ge . ”
This cold and low voice immediately attracted Chen Zhengchu’s attention . He lifted his head and saw a beautiful man in blue suit walking toward them .
Unlike Chen Zhengchu who had to look, Pei Ge knew who that voice belonged to without even looking .
She unhappily thought to herself, What is this annoying person coming over for?!
“Miss Pei, do you know him?” Chen Zhengchu looked at the angry-looking man, who was walking toward their table, with puzzlement . He then curiously volleyed his eyes between Pei Ge and Ji Ziming .
“Er…” Pei Ge’s face went stiff as she nodded . Lifting her head, she frowned at Ji Ziming . “I know him . ”

What exactly does this annoying person want?! Didn’t I tell him that I am on a blind date?!
Ji Ziming looked at the woman sitting in the chair . She was clearly very ordinary, yet he felt an indescribable concern for her .
When she said that the man sitting opposite her was decent and suggested trying it out, he felt a sense of panic for the first time in his life .
Stab! Ji Ziming’s heart boiled with anger . He pulled a chair from this coffee table and sat next to her .
His action caused Pei Ge’s eyes to widen in shock .
Even Chen Zhengchu, who had been very calm so far, frowned .
“What are you doing?! I’m having a blind date right now!” Pei Ge hastily turned her head and angrily whispered this to Ji Ziming . As she did not want Chen Zhengchu to hear her, she leaned very closely to Ji Ziming .
Feeling her breath, the fire in Ji Ziming’s eyes began to simmer down .
Because of the alcohol earlier, his actions were more relaxed than usual .
He languidly leaned on the chair, placed his left leg on his right leg, put his elbows on the chair armrests, and crossed his hands on his thighs . Although his sitting posture looked casual, he subtly emitted an imposing aura .

He did not pay attention to her words and merely scrutinized the man sitting opposite him .
After checking the man out for a while, he snorted with disdain . What was ‘decent’ about this man? Her eyes must be blind .
This disdainful snort successfully made Chen Zhengchu unhappy .
He silently straightened up when the handsome man sitting opposite him started sizing him up with a disdainful look .
Man was a creature all about the face . No matter how good a man’s character was, he would still possess a certain level of ego .
Chen Zhengchu was actually not interested in Pei Ge and was planning to reject her plainly, but, in that instant, he changed his mind .
The corners of his mouth slightly curled up as he politely hinted, “Mister, I’m having a date with Miss Pei right now . ”
Seeing that the other party was not direct, Ji Ziming was too lazy to shift his position and merely continued to wordlessly eye Chen Zhengchu .
Pei Ge watched the two men trying to stare each other down and felt a headache coming on . I shouldn’t have agreed to this blind date .
What she did not get even more was why Ji Ziming was acting this way .

“Mister, your latte . ”
Just as the atmosphere became stagnant in the four-person table, which the occupants had changed from two to three, the waitress came over with the coffee and broke the deadlock .
“Thank you . ” Chen Zhengchu smiled and nodded at the waitress .
“You’re welcome . ” The waitress smiled back with a shake of her head . She then turned to respectfully address Ji Ziming, “Mr . Ji, would you like to have your usual?”
Ji Ziming gave a slight nod and hummed in the affirmative, “Mhm . ”
“Alright, please wait for a short while, Mr . Ji . ” The waitress took the serving tray and left .
Chen Zhengchu gently stirred the coffee with his right hand, and, in a seemingly careless manner, asked, “I wonder what relation Mr . Ji has with Ms . Pei?”
“No relation at all . He is just my boss, and we are not close to each other . ” Before Ji Ziming could respond, Pei Ge immediately clarified their relationship .
Her words caused his face to darken, and he shot her a dangerous look .
“No relation? Not close, eh?” He slightly inclined his face and looked deeply at her .
Pei Ge was slightly fazed by his look and sat up straighter as she raised her voice . “CEO Ji, I’m having a blind date, please don’t—”
She had not even finished her words when he arched an eyebrow and remarked, “I remember that we are rather close, though . ”
When his mouth curled into a devilish smile and he showed an amused face, her cheeks began to feel warm .
The memory of their first meeting at Bar Vista resurfaced in her mind .
In that instant, it was as though Pei Ge’s partner in this blind date had changed from Chen Zhengchu to another person .
Chen Zhengchu looked at the pair across him with a calm smile and without a trace of anger .
If this happened to another guy, he would surely walk out . However, Chen Zhengchu just calmly drank his coffee as though he were indifferent to the whole matter .
“Mr . Ji really cares for his employees, it seems,” Chen Zhengchu said with a smile before he placed the cup in his hand down .
“Naturally,” Ji Ziming replied flatly .
Although one man looked harmless and the other seemed indifferent, Pei Ge inexplicably felt a strange sense of oppression .
