“Sister Pei Ge, CEO Ji asked me to send you home.”
The sight of Li Qi stepping out of the car reflexively made her ask a question.
“Where is Ji Ziming?”
Where did he go? Seriously, he didn’t even bother informing me!
“Sis Pei Ge, how would I know CEO Ji’s whereabouts?” the driver replied, thinking that her question was a little funny.
Only then did she come to realize that a mere driver, especially one that was not the man’s personal chauffeur, would not know his whereabouts.
She was a little disappointed at that thought.
“Sister Pei Ge, let’s visit your place today! It’s been so long since you and my cousin moved, but I haven’t been to your place!” The young lady next to her urged with a smile.
Sensing the excitement in the young lady’s eyes and thinking that the man was not home today, she nodded in agreement.
“Okay. Let’s go, then.”
“Yay! I’ll boast to aunt how I manage to visit your and my cousin’s place ahead of her!” The young lady cheered as she hopped in the car.
Pei Ge paused on the spot, a little confused even when the young lady was already in the car.
What did this lady mean by her managing to visit her and Ji Ziming’s place before Mother Ji? Was that house not bought and decorated by that annoying fellow’s mother? How could she have never been there before?
“Sister Pei Ge, what are you thinking about? Hurry up and get in the car!”
Before she could delve deeper, her thoughts were interrupted by the young lady who was already in the car.
Never mind. It did not seem to be an important matter, anyway.
She shook her head, deciding not to delve deeper into this thought, and just got in the car.
The car quickly arrived at its destination amid the girl’s chattering.
The lady was full of praise for the bungalow the moment she stepped out of the car.
“Sister Pei Ge, this swing outside is so pretty!
“It’ll be very romantic to have an afternoon tea here when spring arrives!
“Wow! This house’s decor is so amazing!
“Such a large kitchen! Sister Pei Ge, do you make food for my cousin every day?”
She let the man’s cousin happily explore the second floor after roaming the first floor before she told her to take a break.
“Let’s have a drink first before you continue your exploration. The house is right here; it can’t run away from you, so don’t be in such a hurry to roam it.”
“En, that’s true. Okay. Let’s have something to eat as well!” The young lady nodded agreeably to her suggestion.
“Take a seat in the living room; I’ll get you some water,” she smilingly said.
The young lady nodded agreeably again and then sat down on the sofa in the living room.
Shortly after, Pei Ge walked into the living room with a platter of fruit and a pot of tea.
“Wow! Sister Pei Ge, you look like a really good housewife!” The girl praised as she watched her peel off fruit on the coffee table.
She felt a little shy upon hearing this lady’s compliment.
“What are you talking about? Talk less and eat more fruit.”
The young lady’s lips upturned when she caught sight of her smile.
It seems that Sister Pei Ge is doing well with my cousin…
Sigh… When can I be like this with Bi Zheng?
“Sister Pei Ge, how did you manage to conquer my cousin?” Swallowing a portion of the orange fruit, she expressed her curiosity regarding the matter.
Pei Ge paused at the girl’s question.
How did she conquer Ji Ziming?
The truth was that she had never conquered that guy! The two of them were merely bound by a contract!
“I… didn’t really do much.” She frowned, unsure of how to answer the girl’s question.
“Liar! If you didn’t do anything, how would my cold, arrogant cousin, who has never liked a woman before, date you? Also, why would he announce your relationship to the entire company in such a high-profile manner?” The girl pouted at once, looking at her disbelievingly.
“…” Pei Ge did not know what to say in response to that.
She really did not do anything as her relationship with the man was a big lie!
Still, she could not possibly tell this young lady that.
Thus, she could only cough and smile at her to dispel this awkward situation, mumbling, “I just happened to catch your cousin’s fancy.”
Qin Qitong was clearly not satisfied with her reply.
“Sister Pei Ge, don’t be so petty! Just tell me how you made my cousin fall for you, so I can make use of it, too!” She blinked her doe-eyes at her, full of anticipation.
Clearly, this girl just wanted to get some advice!
“… I really don’t know what to say.” She was truly at a loss on how to deal with this girl’s persistent questioning.
In the end, she could only hastily change the topic.
“Eh, Qitong, let’s continue exploring the second floor. The upstairs’ decor is pretty amazing, too! Plus, I have a ragdoll cat up there.”
Saying that, she got up off the sofa and dragged the other toward the stairs.
In her excitement upon hearing that, Qin Qitong forgot all about their conversation moments ago as she followed her cousin’s girlfriend up the stairs.
“Pudding, Pudding!” Pei Ge called out to her cat after bringing the girl into her room.
“Sister Pei Ge, your room gives off a fairy-tale vibe,” the young lady mumbled, fascinated by the furnishings she saw.
This was especially when her eyes took in the artificial stars on the ceiling; she only thought that the architecture of Pei Ge’s room was awesome.
“He he! This room is the one my father designed specifically for me when I was a child,” she boasted with a smile, holding the cat in her arms.
Qin Qitong could not help but be envious upon seeing the smug smile on the other’s face.
“Sister Pei Ge, your dad’s so nice to you. Ever since I was a child, my dad has only ever given me money.”
She smiled at the look of envy on the girl’s face and proceeded to pass the cat to her.
“Look; this is my cat, Pudding. Is she cute?”
“En, very cute!” the girl nodded, petting the cat’s thick fur with a smile.
Alas, despite the girl’s adorable appearance, she was not very interested in small animals.
She was also not very interested in Pei Ge’s cat.
“Eh, Sister Pei Ge, you don’t stay in the same room as my cousin?” The girl looked weirdly at her once she noticed the setup of this room and the lack of any male products.
“En, your cousin doesn’t sleep here; his room is next door,” she replied, nodding offhandedly.
The girl paused at her reply and expressed her intent. “Then, I’ll go check out my cousin’s room!”
Pei Ge hastily tried to stop the young lady the moment she heard that the latter wanted to check out the man’s room.
“Eh?! That’s a bad idea! Your cousin dislikes others nosing around his room…”
However, how could she stop the ever curious girl?
“Sister Pei Ge, CEO Ji asked me to send you home.”
The sight of Li Qi stepping out of the car reflexively made her ask a question.
“Where is Ji Ziming?”
