As some were troubled, others rejoiced.
As the Pei Family Real Estate was troubled, Pei Ge’s Minghao Group headed for prosperity.
Her life was busy and fulfilling as she focused on trying to ruin Pei Zhenghui and his family as soon as possible.
She worked like crazy every day trying to attain her goal.
Unexpectedly, her busy and mundane life was interrupted by an uninvited guest.
The uninvited guest hounded her.
This was how she learned why this Casanova had never failed at getting a girl.
It was because he was shameless!
She had never seen a man as shameless as Mu Heng.
“Dear Regina, you should be free today, right? I’ve looked into it; all your work has been completed today. You should be heading home now, right?”
She felt her head, which had been slightly relieved from work, throb when she saw the man at the door of Minghao Group.
“…”
Taking a deep breath, she ignored the man and tried to walk past him.
Alas, no matter where she went, the man followed, and he talked nonstop by her side.
“The weather’s so great today. Let’s go for dinner! I know a good Western restaurant that has just opened recently!
“Right. There’s a new Hollywood film being aired today; We can go watch the movie after our meal…”
She almost broke down as she listened to him go on and on.
She had never known that this man could be this annoying! He just talked ceaselessly!
“Shut up!”
Unable to put up with it any longer, she turned and yelled at him.
The man instantly went silent, staring at her without blinking, looking all obedient.
“Mr. Mu, I don’t know what you want, but I’m telling you now that I’m already married. Plus, I’m a mother of two kids, so please stay away from me!”
With that, she quickly walked away.
She got in her car swiftly before he could return to his senses.
Vroom!
The man blinked and came back to himself only after the car sped away.
As he watched the car disappear, his mouth moved as he mumbled, “Married with two kids…”
A conflicted expression appeared on his dashing face.
“Ah, what to do…”
He had never gone after a married woman, not to mention one with two kids… but he really liked that eye-catching woman…
Mu Heng, who had never been troubled over women, was stuck.
“Do I abandon my morals and continue pursuing my true love or… do I abandon my morals to pursue my one true love…”
Of course, Pei Ge was unaware of his conflicted emotions.
She stopped thinking about the man right after she got away from him.
To her, he was only infatuated by her good looks.
It would fade after a while, but she was really shocked to see him in her office the next day.
Her heart was always in her mouth when she saw him after that, but she truly did not expect him not to recognize her as the woman, whose nickname he had even come up with.
It was funny just thinking about it, really.
Everything that Tang Xiaoyu had said back then came true.
Give her appearance now, it would be strange if anyone recognized her.
The car quickly arrived at the destination amid her wild thoughts.
“Boss, we are here.”
She nodded at Wu Wei’s words and then alighted from the car with her bag.
When she arrived home, the first thing she did was not turn on her computer and TV but—
She turned on the walkie-talkie!
Zzt zzt zzt…
The light on the walkie-talkie turned green after a moment.
“Sister!”
A tender voice came from it.
Her lips curled into a smile when she heard the voice.
“Baby, I’ve told you so many times to call me auntie.”
“No, you’re sister!”
She shook her head with a smile at the child’s stubborn words.
“It’s auntie to you. I’ve already told you that I should be around your parents’ age. Plus, I have two babies of your age, too.”
At this point, Pei Ge felt that the child really had an affinity to her.
Unbeknown to her was that he was actually of the same age as her two children.
“No! I like calling you sister.”
Insisted the child on the other end.
She felt her heart nearly melted upon hearing that. How could she be bothered to reason with the child?
“Oh, right! Sister, after I followed your advice, my daddy indeed promised to bring me to the amusement park this weekend,” shared the boy happily.
“Really?”
“Yup! Even though my daddy appears reluctant to go, he always listens to grandma. He he!”
Her lips upturned into a smile as she listened to the child chatter.
“Sister, thank you! If not, my daddy wouldn’t promise to bring me to the amusement park…”
She turned off the walkie-talkie only after she had chatted with the child for a while.
As she set the walkie-talkie aside, she realized that an hour had passed.
She noted then that the time she spent chatting with the child was getting longer.
If her little ones learned of this, they would be jealous.
At this thought, she laughed out loud.
Still… truth be told, she really found the child endearing. He easily tugged at her heartstrings…
Maybe…
Her eyes locked onto the light-green walkie-talkie.
Perhaps she viewed that child as her Ping An because of the walkie-talkie…
