Provocative Fiery Wife: My Superior is a Affectionate Spitfire Chapter 960

Chapter 962 - Do not reject me, okay?

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

In a relaxing late afternoon, the lazy sunlight silently streamed in through the windows.

The summer sun made the tables by the floor-to-ceiling windows feel hot to the touch.

However, as it was only spring, the temperature was relatively low.

Hence, the warm sunlight was just nice, making one feel comfortable.

Bathed under this sunlight, Pei Ge sat in a cradle chair languidly as her eyes swept over the work journals before her time and again.

She had just called her mother to ask for some of her father’s ex-employees’ contacts.

Although many years had passed, she was still able to attain quite a few phone numbers from her.

However, after calling those numbers, what made her disappointed was that those people did not know about the company’s imminent IPO then, not to mention the related documents.

“It must be because those people didn’t hold a managerial position under dad…”

She frowned with a depressed look.

Where were those people with managerial positions who knew of the company’s upcoming IPO, then?

Why did her mother not have their contacts as well?

Why was it like that…

Just as she was thinking hard about this, a man in a silver-gray suit suddenly stopped beside her.

The man only stared at her from a standing position.

The woman who was in deep thought naturally did not notice that someone had appeared beside her.

It was only when the man spoke that she noticed his presence.

“Ge Ge, what are you doing here?”

The familiar male voice startled her into looking up, only to find Fu Mingxuan standing there.

“Senior?” She blinked at him in surprise. “Why are you here?”

“I should be the one asking you that.” He laughed and sat in the chair opposite hers. “Why? Are you here for some spiritual experience?”

He pointed at the stack of journals and grinned.

She hurriedly packed the journals when he pointed at them.

“He he he! Senior, I was j-just…”

She momentarily did not know how to explain what she was doing to him.

Seeing how flustered she was, the man shook his head in amusement with a gentle gaze.

When he caught sight of her turtleneck sweater, the gentleness in his gaze intensified.

Other than gentleness and love, his gaze also contained heartache and self-blame.

This woman I love clearly doesn’t like me back. She’s even about to get married, but because of my carelessness, her happiness will get ruined…

Thinking up to this point, he felt even guiltier.

He hesitated for a moment before he opened his mouth to confess the truth.

However, just as he was about to speak, he suddenly recalled Qiao Jingyun’s words.

‘Pei Ge doesn’t know that the person who slept with her is you, so I suggest that you don’t say anything, or else…’

If I say it, this woman whom I love so much will likely hate me to death.

From then on, I won’t be able to see her again…

“Senior, forget it; I should just tell you.”

After thinking for a while, Pei Ge concluded that the man was someone she could trust and telling him would not be anything bad.

“Hm?”

The man came back to himself when she spoke and looked at her.

“Actually, I’m investigating my father’s death from a decade or so ago.”

She took a deep breath and laid out in front of him all the journals she had previously kept.

“I think that my father’s death was no accident but a premeditated murder.”

He moved to speak, but she kept talking.

“I am now investigating in secret. Senior, I trust you so I decided to tell you; I just hope that you will help me keep this secret.”

He paused when he heard this.

His mind kept replaying her words about trusting him.

“Ge Ge…”

In that instant, he felt that he had committed a great sin, and his guilt nearly overwhelmed him.

“I’m sorry; I’m sorry…”

He suddenly lowered his head and interlaced his hands as he muttered this incessantly.

Pei Ge blinked her eyes at the man, not getting why he was apologizing, and then asked curiously, “Senior, what’s wrong?

He raised his head at her question and looked at her with a meaningful gaze.

His gaze landed on her face, which could not be deemed pretty but was full of sincerity, then swept past the journals on the table.

He made a decision.

That was, after he was done helping her investigate her father’s death, he would confess and apologize to her even if she ended up hating him.

He would tell her the whole truth.

For now, let me cherish this moment and help you investigate your father’s death…

“Nothing.”

He sucked in a deep breath and smiled wryly before sincerely saying, “Ge Ge, let me help you investigate your father’s death.”

“Huh?”

She paused at this, joy filling her heart, but quickly shook her head and rejected, “I can’t, senior. You are a busy man, so I can’t trouble you like that.”

If it were Ji Ziming who had offered to help her, she would readily accept, but this person was Fu Mingxuan; thus, she had second thoughts about involving him.

Otherwise, my fiancé might get angry due to jealousy!

“It’s no trouble.” He lightly shook his head and smiled. “Ge Ge, this might be something hard to investigate alone and will take up quite some time, but it is no trouble at all to me.

“In any case, what you should consider is that the progress of investigation will be much faster with my help, so don’t reject me, okay?”
