The Ji family’s mansion had an uninvited guest early in the morning; a black Mercedes Benz was parked at the main entrance long ago . Old Lady Qu, who was in the car, was applying makeup on her face using Chanel foundation . Her crow’s feet were concealed well, and she did not look like her age .
“Madam, shall I go press the bell?”
“Don’t . ”
She outrightly rejected her driver’s, Old Yang’s, suggestion . Sitting at the back of the car, she looked at the mansion through the window . From the house’s exterior appearance down to its flooring, all indicated the family’s copious wealth .
The only mistress this house could have was her granddaughter .
She carefully considered what she should do when she met Ji Ziming’s mother later . If she were to engage the latter in small talk, it would appear low-class, but if she were to talk about her granddaughter’s marriage, she would appear too nosy .
“Do we have to keep waiting at the entrance until Young Master Ji leaves?”
Her driver inquired again .
“That’s right . Park the car at one side and not at the entrance . If that man sees us, it won’t bode well for my granddaughter . ” She looked at the mansion and suddenly remembered that she could not let that man spot her visiting her granddaughter . If not, Qu Jingwan’s time in the family would worsen and the man would, all the more, not marry her .
“Okay . I’ll park the car at that family’s entrance; is it fine?”
Old Yang pointed at a smaller villa beside the Ji family’s . It was a European-style house, with the owner seemingly not someone average . For such a unique design, the person must have hired a team of elite architects as even the country’s top professionals in that field could not come up with that .
“Okay . ”
She eyed that small villa . It looked familiar, yet she could not recall where she had seen it before .
The driver drove the car there, and both waited patiently for Ji Ziming to leave .
In his family’s house, the man stood beside the bed as he put on a black suit on top of his white shirt, which accentuated his lean stature and handsome features .
“Get up . We’re going to Red Star today to tie up some loose ends . ”
From the reflection in the mirror, he saw the woman remaining in bed . The corners of his lips curled as she complained about her body aching, cursing him an early death .
“What’s wrong? Not getting up? Why don’t you rest a day at home?”
His heart ached a little . He did not wish to treat her so violently, yet he could not restrain himself when she pleaded on behalf of another man for him . He merely wanted to punish her slightly but did not think that things would end up this way .
Stay at home? No, she would rather take the three children and leave with him . She did not want to lie in bed, half-paralyzed, and attract the other women’s ‘kind-hearted’ concerns in this house .
“I’ll get up right away . ” She sat up sluggishly . As her blanket slipped down, her chest was exposed .
“You… Close your eyes first!” She hurriedly pulled the blanket in order not to reveal too much .
“Do you still want me to close my eyes?” Ji Ziming turned around . His eyes were on her as he smiled slightly . “Then, do you want me to wear your clothes for you?”
“Don’t want; don’t want . ”
She frantically shook her head . Having already been eaten by him, she did not want him to see the last of her exposed body .
“I’ll stand here and wait for you to put on your clothes and leave together . ”
“Together . Are you crazy?”
Pei Ge objected . If they were to leave her room together and bump into his mother, how should they explain it?
“What are you afraid of? There’s no man-eating monster here . Are you that afraid of leaving with me?”
Ji Ziming could not fathom why she would rather leave on her own or leave together secretly than leave with him openly .
“I’m not afraid . You see I’m not pregnant, and you’re with me all the time . If auntie sees it, she definitely won’t feel so good inside . ”
“She won’t . You’re overthinking things . Change your clothes now; I’ll wait here for you until you’re done, and we’ll leave together . ”
He was adamant . Leaning on the vanity table, he eyed a certain someone on the bed .
Seeing his gaze, Pei Ge could only give in . “Then, bring the clothes in the closet for me . ”
“Take them yourself . ”
The man’s eyes remained glued on her . As long as she dashed from the bed, he would be able to see her shyest and most flustered expression .
“Just help me take them and I won’t ask you to leave . ”
She began to negotiate with him, not wanting to appear like this in front of him . There was a big difference between now and last night . It was pitch-dark last night, while it was daytime now . She could concede to him watching her change clothes but could not accept him seeing her walk to the closet naked .
“I’m not getting them . ”
The man repeated .
Pei Ge gave it a thought and gritted her teeth as she wrapped the blanket around her . Walking to the closet, she picked out a set from Chanel’s early autumn series .
Seeing her move to the closet wrapped like a giant dumpling, he strode over and quickly removed the blanket, which was the only thing covering her bare body . The blanket glided along her silky-smooth skin and slipped to the ground as though it had lost its life .
“You look better like this . ”
She turned around and used the clothes in her hand to cover her important body parts as she blushed . “What are you doing?! You don’t give me clothes, and now you’re even taking my cover off . ”
“Like I said: You look better like this . ” Ji Ziming looked at the woman with deep eyes, causing her tiny face to turn red and white . His smile became wider and attractive as he spoke in his deep yet clear voice . “And more attractive . ”
“Bully! what are you trying to do?” Pei Ge was angry as her body was exposed right in front of this man . She had never expected him to do such a thing to her one day .
“You should know better what I’m thinking . If you don’t, I don’t mind repeating it to you . ”
He stepped forward and towered over her with his full height . His facial features were overwhelming . His smile showed that he had gotten his way again . This made her shiver .
“Aren’t you in a rush to leave? Can’t you let me change faster?”
When she encountered such a side of him, she knew that she could not afford to be anxious . If not, she would be the one on the losing end .
“Sure . Change your clothes in front of me without hiding . ”
