Provocative Fiery Wife: My Superior is a Affectionate Spitfire

Chapter 1830: Ge Ge, You Are Indeed Ruthless

Pei Ge’s lips curled into a faint smile. She already had a plan in mind. It was precisely because she knew how important this weakness was to Qu Jingwan that she believed in the meaning behind her own actions even more.

When dealing with enemies, one did not have to reveal their weapons first. It was better to reveal them when the enemy was not paying attention.

“So you’re so sure because of Qu Jingwan’s weakness?”

Qu Xiujie drove with a deep voice.

“That’s right. Everyone has a weakness and I have more. However, because I have a backing, Qu Jingwan won’t be foolish enough to use my weakness to threaten me. In her eyes, I know far more than she does, so she doesn’t dare to try and do things that I won’t let her do.”

“Ge Ge, you are indeed ruthless.”

Qu Xiujie said from the bottom of his heart. In his eyes, Pei Ge should be the gentle type, but now, he realized that this gentle type of woman was like a chili. If anyone provoked her, that person would have to suffer the consequences. However, it was precisely because of this that Pei Ge cared more than others.

That was because there were three children behind her and the famous Ji Ziming.

“Uncle, do you also think that I’m too evil?”

Pei Ge tilted her head and asked Qu Xiujie softly. Although she knew that the answer Qu Xiujie was going to give her would surprise her, she still chose to listen.

“Everything has two sides to it, just like how you describe it. Old lady Qu is also such a vicious person, but to you, she’s the active type. She’s like an animal in the animal world, invading other lions’ territory and domineeringly occupying a territory that was originally not hers. However, your viciousness is trying hard to protect your territory and create a better world for yourself. That’s why the evilness you’re talking about isn’t what the real viciousness. You’re still young and all of this doesn’t mean anything.”

Qu Xiujie pointed out the difference between the two women sharply.

Pei Ge sat in the front passenger seat and looked at Qu Xiujie’s side profile. Her family was right beside her and she was really like a lion that was invaded. She only chose to be passive in order to protect the people she cared about.

Regardless of the outcome, Pei Ge did not want to invade other territories. She only wanted to say that she wanted to protect everything. Just like what Qu Xiujie said, everything was for the best protection in her own territory.

“Uncle, I want to sleep for a while. Call me when you arrive.”

She closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep.

“Okay, go to sleep. I’ll tell you when we get there.”

Qu Xiujie looked at Pei Ge.

When the car arrived at the Ji family’s villa, Ji Ziming was already waiting patiently at the entrance. His tall figure could be seen from afar and Qu Xiujie drove the car directly to Ji Ziming and said softly, “Ge Ge just fell asleep, you...”

“I know.”

Ji Ziming nodded, as though this was not the first time he had dealt with her sleeping in the car.

He opened the car door, unbuckled his seatbelt, and gently carried Pei Ge out. “Uncle, just park the car in the courtyard and come in. I have something to tell you.”

Ji Ziming’s voice was gentle as he turned to look at Qu Xiujie. “I’ll send Ge Ge back to her room first.”

“Okay.”

Qu Xiujie, who was in the car, nodded. He waited until Ji Ziming carried Pei Ge into the Ji family’s villa before driving to the courtyard.

Mother Ji was trimming the roses in the courtyard when she saw Qu Xiujie driving in. She could not help but stand up. “Why are you here?”

“I’m here to send Ge Ge back. Why? Do you have a problem with that?”

Qu Xiujie parked the car and opened the door. He saw Mother Ji holding a huge bouquet of roses.

“Why did you cut so many flowers. Are you going to propose to me?”

Qu Xiujie’s lips curled up as he looked at Mother Ji with a mischievous smile.

“You’re good at everything, but can’t you be a little conscious with your words?”

Mother Ji looked at Qu Xiujie and turned around, ignoring him.

“I still have areas which I am good at. Tell me, what other areas am I good at? Tell me so that I can really change those parts of me that are not as good in your eyes.”

Qu Xiujie had his hands in his pockets as he watched Mother Ji trim the flowers while cutting the roses that did not bloom very well.

“Hey, the flowers are blooming nicely. Why did you cut them?”

“Didn’t you come to the Ji family to look for Ziming? Why are you standing here? If you have something to say, then say it. If not, you can leave. The door is right in front of you. Walk straight and I won’t send you off.”

Mother Ji said angrily. The roses in her hand were wilting and their appearance look made one’s heart ache.

“Fine, I won’t make my presence known to you anymore. I’ll go look for Ziming now. Just cut your roses properly here. There are many rose thorns, so be careful.”

Qu Xiujie turned around and said softly, “She’s a rich lady but she’s learning gardening.”

Mother Ji was about to curse when she felt a sharp pain on her fingertip. It pierced through her fair and tender finger, and the red blood actually merged with the lively rose. It was not ironic at all.

“This old thing, why did he jinx me for no reason? Seriously.”

Madam Ji pinched the blood on her finger and gently sucked on it.

When Ji Ziming reached the living room on the first floor of the Ji family’s villa, he happened to place Pei Ge on the bed and closed the door with a thin blanket. “Uncle, sit.”

“No problem.”

Qu Xiujie followed his principles and sat down on the sofa beside him. Auntie Zhang quickly came over with two cups of hot tea. “Mr. Qu, you haven’t been here for a long time. This is the new tea that the CEO likes recently. You should try it too.”

“Thank you, Auntie Zhang. What Ziming likes must be special.”

Qu Xiujie raised his brows and his smile made Auntie Zhang wait curiously for his reaction after drinking the tea.

He took a small sip and the bitter taste spread in his mouth. This feeling was not any better than the first time he ate mustard when he was young. Just as Qu Xiujie was about to spit it out, his mouth became even more fragrant. The bitterness earlier was now sweet.

After swallowing the first mouth of tea, the second mouthful was surprisingly bitter again.

The third mouthful actually contained this bit of bitterness, repeating over and over again.
