Chapter 1564: 1564
Chapter 1564: I will let anyone who dares harm you pay for it .
The two were holding hands when they entered the hospital . They took the VIP elevator all the way to the top floor . Before they walked into the ward, they could already hear the three children’s melodious laughter .
“I know; I will always remember this . ”
The corners of her lips shifted upward as her beautiful eyes became full of smiles .
“It’s good that you know . You must keep in mind that you are my woman, and there is nothing that I cannot do for you . ”
He lightly snorted . His eyes were dark and sharp . It was only when he looked at her that they would slowly be replaced by gentleness . The woman he loved the most must be by his side forever .
Ring, ring! A handphone rang . The call was from Zhang Manhua .
“Mom, why are you calling?’
She covered the receiver with her hand and halted her footsteps, which were bound for the ward . Her face showed doubt .
“Why did you ask me earlier about your dad’s conversation with me before his death? Did you find something out? Hurry and tell mom about it . ”
The older woman was already having insomnia from worrying about Tang Xiaoyu’s whereabouts; now, she could not fall asleep again after receiving her daughter’s call, so she got up to place this call .
“Mom, I just got another phone number of a man called Yang Hua from uncle . ” Pei Ge honestly answered . Expecting that she would have to spend some time talking to her mother, she quickly turned around and entered another quiet ward .
Ji Ziming followed closely behind her . He wanted to be by her side no matter what .
He retrieved his phone to call He Yun the moment his woman entered the ward . “I will send you a number . Go investigate who owns it and report back to me everything—even the smallest detail . ”
“Yes, sir!”
His subordinate noted down the number being read out to him; after the call was hung up, he immediately started the investigation .
Inside the ward, Pei Ge noted at once that this room was identical to the one she was staying in . Not only were the furnishings the same, even the paintings hung on the wall were painted by the artist she liked . What surprised her more was that her photo was placed somewhere one could see it the moment the door was opened .
Turns out that this room is Ji Ziming’s .
“Ge Ge, what’s wrong? Why did you stop speaking?”
Her mother hurriedly urged when she stopped talking . She quickly turned on the lights, illuminating every corner of the room .
“Mom, I’m fine . I was just looking for a quiet place to talk to you . ”
Pei Ge regained her senses . It seemed that she had been underestimating her importance to the man . She knew and understood, but this was her first time feeling sad about it .
“Aren’t you at the Jis? Shouldn’t you be in your own room?”
Zhang Manhua found it strange . What was her daughter doing behind her back? Why did it sound like she was currently not at home and was somewhere else?
“Mom, I’m outside right now . How could I be at home all day?”
Ji Ziming pushed the door and entered right after she said this . Upon spotting her sitting on the sofa, he eyed her and mouthed, “I’ll wait for you . ”
She nodded and continued listening to her mother’s voice on the phone .
“True . Then, tell me: Have you gotten any leads regarding your father’s actual murderer through that number you got?”
“No, mom; I haven’t gotten the chance to call that number yet before I received your call . ”
Only then did the older woman realize that her daughter had not forgotten about her father’s death . She had almost misunderstood her daughter, thinking that the latter had set aside her responsibility to be lovey-dovey with her lover .
“Oh, right . Have you called Zhengrong? Does he know about Xiaoyu’s disappearance?”
“I did and decided to fly over and search for my best friend’s whereabouts myself . ”

“Does this mean that he didn’t tell you anything?”
She was a little worried . That young lady had left without a word . Not to mention a call, she did not even reply to her texts .
It seemed that the only one who could find her was her boyfriend, yet he did not have a care about it .
“What should he be telling me? I called him, yet he did not even know that Xiaoyu had gone missing . He even told me not to worry about it . ”
Pei Ge felt her temper rise at the mention of that guy . She had never seen a boyfriend like that . It was one thing to be busy; it was another thing not to care . There was a limit to his insensitivity . He should not treat his company as his home and push away his girlfriend .
“Does he think that this is not important?” asked her mother .
“Exactly what I said . ”
The disdain in her eyes deepened .
The mother-daughter pair talked for a long time with different time zones . From Tang Xiaoyu’s disappearance to Pei Zhengan’s death, they combed through every detail together .
The one thing the younger woman was certain of was her uncle’s role in her father’s death being larger than what was mentioned . He might even have played a more despicable and wicked role compared to what he was letting on .

After she hung up, Ji Ziming walked over with eyes full of love . “I didn’t know that you were holding this much burden in your heart . If only I had found you earlier or if we had met sooner, perhaps none of those things would have happened to you . ”
The woman was a little stunned . Subtle sunlight splayed on his fringe, making him glow with charisma . As she looked at his handsome features, she felt her heart melt because of the heartache in his eyes .
“You said that, no matter what happens, I have you . ”
She stood up and stopped before him . Her arms then hugged his slender waist tightly . If time could stop, she wished to forget all those painful memories . She did not wish to find out about those lies, deceits, and schemes . She only wanted time to still right now while she hugged him and breathed in his familiar scent .
“You are truly a little fool . Why are you this stupid?”
His doting tone stopped the tears brimming in her eyes . With his large, white hand, he gently rubbed the top of her head . His eyes were full of love as he said, “You are my woman . I will let anyone who dares harm you pay for it . They will, one day, receive their just desserts . ”
