“Hah...”
Amid the two’s verbal spat, one furious and the other indignant, Tang Xiaoyu, who had been neglected by them, yawned.
This yawn caused Ji Ziming’s face to darken.
However, to Pei Ge, it was like a heavenly sound that caused her face to brighten.
She was so angry that her head spun earlier. What was there for this annoying person to be furious about?! What was wrong with booking a room with her childhood best friend?
Her mind cleared up a lot in that instant.
“CEO Ji, how does it concern you who I sleep with? Never mind that it is now after the office hours, even if it is, what business is it to you who I sleep with?” The corners of her mouth curled into a bright smile.
“Pei Ge!” He eyed the smooth face being cupped by his hand and, at her words, could not bear it anymore.
Not knowing why, her current look reminded him of that day he had said those hurtful words.
“CEO Ji, since you are my boss, I won’t call the police on you.” She beamed at him and then said blandly, “Please leave now.”
“Alright, good! Very good!” His heart ached terribly at her distant smile.
He glared at her.
“CEO Ji, why are you still here? I need to rest, or I won’t have the energy to go to work tomorrow.” She continued to grin, unfazed by his behavior.
At her somewhat provocative smile, his eyes narrowed chillingly.
The atmosphere in the room became much colder, and even she sensed the wrongness in the air.
His angry expression was gone, but his indifferent face was enough to make one shudder.
“Gu, lu!” She reflexively gulped at his intense stare.
For some reason, she started to panic.
Just as she was beginning to feel afraid, suddenly—
“Hah, Ge Ge, why is it so noisy?” Tang Xiaoyu, who had been lying in the bed all this while, opened her eyes and asked, her voice slurring from sleepiness and drunkenness.
This gentle and feminine voice instantly broke the scary and cold atmosphere in the room.
Upon hearing her voice, his cold face sported a stunned look and his eyes’ frostiness vanished.
Pei Ge’s eyes had never left his face, so how could she not notice his change in expression?
Her lips curled into a bright smile at the stunned look on his face.
Hmph! Who asked you not to clarify things before scolding me?! Who asked you to scare me earlier?! Now, you are stunned, right?!
“A woman?” His forehead creased tightly as he finally shifted his eyes away from Pei Ge and gazed downward.
“Hi, handsome!” Tang Xiaoyu waved happily when she saw him look over.
“...” His forehead creased further at that and then shifted his gaze back on to Pei Ge. His mouth twitched slightly at her smug smile.
This damn woman did it on purpose!
“CEO Ji, don’t tell me you want to dock my pay for booking a couple suite with my best friend?” She blinked and grinned at him.
He was looking at her expressionlessly, yet his forehead was twitching ever so slightly. He looked deeply into her eyes and, without speaking another word, turned to leave the couple suite.
Peng! Only after the door had slammed shut did her smile fade away.
There is something not right in this situation. How exactly did that annoying person find me here?
Unfortunately, she only remembered that she had not asked this important question when his figure was already gone!
“Ge Ge, is that gorgeous man earlier that boss you had a one-night stand with?” Tang Xiaoyu asked while giggling. She carefully observed her best friend’s thoughtful expression.
No trace of drunkenness was left in the current Tang Xiaoyu as her pair of eyes shone with the desire to gossip.
“Aren’t you drunk?” Lowering her head, she saw the excited eyes looking at her.
“Aiya! CEO Ji frightened me so much that I became sober.” Tang Xiaoyu blinked her eyes innocently, seemingly saying that she was being wrongfully accused, and then giggled.
She rolled her eyes. “Who are you trying to fool?”
“I am of course trying to fool you, pretty, little woman!” Tang Xiaoyu proceeded to push Pei Ge down on the bed after answering with this.
“Pretty, little woman, tell me; who is that man just now?” she playfully lifted her chin and teasingly asked.
“You guess.”
As the couple suite got filled with the pair of childhood friends’ playfulness, another pair of childhood friends made the corridor outside be filled with frost.
The moment Ji Ziming stepped out of the couple suite, he saw Mu Heng’s devious smile.
“Pui! Ziming, why were you inside for so long?”
He had just finished asking when the other’s icy eyes swept over him.
“Mu Heng, you went overboard this time.” His face was solemn as he looked at his best friend frostily.
When he saw the female friend of that woman earlier, he realized that his childhood friend had played a joke on him.
“Ziming, I just wanted to test how important Little Chili is to you,” he laughingly drew near him and then confessed this.
“...” When he heard his reasoning, his expression froze for a moment.
“Ze, ze, ze, I really didn’t expect for Little Chili to have such a special place in your heart.” Mu Heng sighed inwardly upon seeing his best friend’s troubled look.
His best friend cared for her more than he had originally thought...
If it were per normal, his friend would have seen through his little trick the moment he had picked up his call, but now...
Yo! The seed has really been planted!
Little Chili has got quite the charm! She can actually make our Ziming care so much for her.
