Wen Qimo’s sudden appearance gave Pei Ge an instant headache, and her urge to leave the place grew stronger .
Seeing the man’s good looks and exceptional demeanor, bubbles of jealousy toward Pei Ge boiled further in Liu Yue’s heart .
“Pei Ge, I really didn’t expect for you to be this capable!” With jealousy in her eyes, she said mockingly, “You already have CEO Ji, yet you’ve ensnared this man, too .
“You are indeed very formidable . With your current state, you are still able to seduce so many men . How shameless you are . ”
Her voice was not soft and was rather loud, so everyone nearby heard her clearly, causing a slight hubbub to start in the shop .
“Excuse me, this miss here; Ge Ge is my girlfriend, so please be mindful of your words . My temper is not as good as my girlfriend’s . I am the type of person who takes measures through legal means, and your words just now can already be considered as libelous . ” Although he still had a gentle smile on his face, his words were laced with hostility .
Seeing Liu Yue become so frightened by his threat that she shut her mouth, Pei Ge could not help but laugh .
Inside, she thought, Having a fake boyfriend who looks like a gentle Adonis on the outside but is totally black-hearted on the inside is actually not too bad .
It’s even better since I don’t need to worry of this fake boyfriend taking advantage of me with him being gay! A guy who likes men and not women!
“Qimo, let’s go . ” Pei Ge walked to his side and smilingly hooked her arm through his .
The moment she touched his arm, she could clearly feel the man’s body stiffen .
Of course, she did not suspect anything and only thought that he disliked any form of physical contact with women because he was gay .
They quickly footed the bill and left the coffee house . Once they were out on the street, she quickly released his arm .
“Sorry for touching you just then . I forgot that you dislike physical contact with women . I’ll definitely take note of it next time . ” She put her palms together and sincerely apologized .
Wen Qimo’s mouth twitched at her apology . He really wanted to crack open her head right now just to see what was in it exactly!
“There . Is . No . Need . To . ” He glared daggers at her and said this through gritted teeth .
“Oh . ” Totally oblivious to the real reason behind his rage, she completely assumed that it was due to him being repulsed by her intimate touch just then .
“Let’s go; I’ll send you home,” he took a deep breath and offered .
Without pretending to hedge, she agreed with a nod and got into his car .
Liu Yue watched the couple intimately walk out of the place, and, for some reason, the indignance she felt inside completely vanished .
Pei Ge… is indeed Pei Ge…
No matter how or what she turns into, whether ugly or pretty, she is always this iridescent, this dazzling, and this attractive . I am totally jealous of her…
Her life goal in the past was to become someone like Pei Ge…
However, once she realized that it was an unachievable goal, a seed of hatred was planted in her heart toward that girl, who was so outstanding that no one could catch up to her .
When she met her again, the latter was no longer that high and mighty, princess-like girl of the past; she had turned into this disappointing, unsightly mess .
In that moment, the seed of evilness and hatred in her heart, which had been planted years ago, sprouted .
Within the coffee shop, in contrast to Liu Yue’s pensive and nostalgic thought, another waitress’s mind was much more lighthearted and wild .
Aiyo! The hell?! What the hell?! That woman’s boyfriend turns out be a different person and not my male god! She must be blind!
Pei Ge got off Wen Qimo’s car with a wide smile when they reached her neighborhood .
“Thanks for today,” she said with a grateful smile .
“It’s nothing; I merely lifted a finger . You are my girlfriend, so I can’t just let someone bully you before my presence, right?” he rhetorically asked with a smile .
“And here I thought you were merely enjoying the show and had forgotten about who I am . ” She raised an eyebrow .
“Hm? You actually knew that I was there all along, huh . ” He did not defend his act of watching the show from the sidelines earlier and openly admitted to it .
“Was the show interesting?” She rolled her eyes at him . So much for his good looks and gentlemanly aura . This Wen Qimo is a black-sesame rice ball wrapped in white glutinous skin! A black-bellied idiot who is white on the outside but black on the inside!
“Wu, it’s not bad . In fact, I am now a little curious about you . ” He nodded his head with a wide smile .
“What are you curious about?” She pouted .
“I am curious of how pretty you were in the past for someone to still be jealous of you even today . ” He seriously regarded her and then tut-tutted .
“I am also pretty curious; are you really a homosexual? You are actually curious about a woman,” she countered while copying his demeanor .
“…” His mouth twitched . “Alright, you win . ”
F*ck! I am honestly not gay! It’s perfectly normal for me to be curious of women, alright?!
After waving him goodbye, she took light steps toward her house .
The moment she stepped inside, she was barraged by her mother’s series of questions .
Zhang Manhua only relaxed once she had finished recounting everything .
“As long as your second uncle knows of the truth, all is good . ”
“Yes . Mom, you should go to sleep now . Don’t think nonsensical things anymore . My second uncle merely drank too much yesterday,” she smilingly assured her mother .
“Alright, you rest early, too . ” With a relieved smile, Zhang Manhua nodded her head in acquiescence .
After chatting for a bit, the mother-daughter pair returned to their respective bedrooms .
Once she was in the privacy of her room, she lay in her bed and finally thought of Pei Shishi’s issue .
“Sigh…” She tossed and turned for a little while and eventually audibly sighed .
The two sisters’ conversation at the bus stop kept surfacing from her memories .
It was as the elder sister had said; they were sisters, so what was one man worth?
However, she could not fathom why that would change when it came to her cousin . Was it because Ji Ziming was really that important to her or because… she had never had any importance to her cousin to begin with?
Whatever the case might be, a change occurred to her mentality today .
“Cousin, from now onward, I will not hide . ”
If her cousin really decided to stretch her vile hands toward her, she would not just let it pass like she had done before .
Cousin, three strikes and you are out . Don’t disappoint me, or else…
