Pei Ge looked pained.
It was usually said that those with big breasts were brainless. Since when did those with long legs become brainless too?
“Nana, give me the magazine. I really just want to see it.”
The more Pei Ge tried to explain, the more confused she became. She could only look at Mao Nana helplessly as her voice softened. “Nana, you have to believe that this is really not my ex-boyfriend. Also, this is my friend’s boyfriend. You should be able to see them soon. They will be returning to the country to hold their wedding soon and you will know whether I am lying to you or not.”
“Are you serious?”
Mao Nana’s face lit up as she looked at Pei Ge seriously. “Ge Ge, I don’t know if this is your ex-boyfriend, but I can tell you with certainty that he is not as handsome and rich as Ji Ziming.”
Pei Ge felt awkward. Just as she was thinking of not getting the magazine from Mao Nana, the latter placed it in front of her. “Here, your ex-boyfriend.”
“…”
If not for the fact that Mao Nana was already injured, Pei Ge might really have started fighting with her. If not for that, Pei Ge’s heart would have bled from all her orifices.
“Nana, he’s really not my boyfriend!”
She did not know how to explain herself.
“Alright, alright. I know. Isn’t it just a man? It’s fine as long as your current partner is more eye-catching than your ex. Who cares about their exes? What’s in the past is in the past. You’re so outstanding now; only Ji Ziming is worthy of you.”
Mao Nana raised her head, her eyes bright. “Exes are left for the past. You don’t need them now too.”
Pei Ge felt helpless as she looked at the tears in her eyes. “Nana, this really isn’t my ex-boyfriend…”
Pei Ge wanted to cry but had no tears. She was really a brainless beauty with long legs. Who would have thought that the two women would die in each other’s hands?
One firmly believed that the cover of the magazine was Pei Ge’s ex-boyfriend, while the other wanted to explain but could not. The two could only live in their own theoretical world. The more they wanted to explain and prove, the more they could not reach the same point.
“Nana, let me explain it to you again. This man is really not my ex-boyfriend. My ex-boyfriend is already dead. If you say that he’s my ex-boyfriend again, I’ll be in deep trouble if my friend hears about it.”
“Really?”
“He’s really not!”
“Could it be that I am wrong?”
“Yes, you’re wrong! You’re really wrong!”
Pei Ge finally saw a glimmer of hope. Given Mao Nana’s perception, once she was certain of something, it would be harder to change. However, the harder something was to change, the more Pei Ge wanted to prove it.
After such a long time, the two of them were like springs that had been pulled apart. Without their previous vigor, it could only be said that the two of them were entangled endlessly.
“Oh.”
Mao Nana looked at Pei Ge, lowered her head, and hummed in acknowledgment. She adjusted herself to a comfortable position, took a pillow from the bed, and leaned comfortably against her waist before continuing, “It’s fine even if I am.”
“…”
Pei Ge decided not to dwell on this issue with Mao Nana anymore. She turned around and sat on the sofa. She felt that she still had to do something, yet she could not think of what to do. She then raised her head and looked at Mao Nana with her beautiful eyes. “Nana, where did you get these magazines from?”
“I took this from my mailbox at the entrance of the house this morning. I don’t know who booked it, but Sister Manhua said that she didn’t book it, so I brought it to my room to take a look. They are all leaders in the financial and IT circles. It looks really boring.”
Mao Nana flipped through a few pages and looked at the magazine in her hands, feeling sleepy.
“Should I order some magazines for you?”
she probed.
“No need. I’m fine like this. I can read the news on my phone.”
Mao Nana waved the phone in her hand. When she was bored in the house, she would rely on her phone to get new news.
“Okay. Tell me when you feel bored. Now, you just have to take good care of your leg. You don’t have to worry about anything else.”
Pei Ge lowered her head to look at the magazine in her hands as she calculated how long it would take for Qin Qitong and Bi Zheng to return home.
“Ge Ge, you’re saying that this man is coming back?”
Mao Nana looked at the magazine in Pei Ge’s hand. The man on the bottom left corner of the magazine was dressed in casual clothes, which was totally different from the models on the cover. One was dressed in a black suit with distinct facial features, while the other was dressed casually.
“Yes, he’s getting married.”
Pei Ge nodded and flipped through the magazine in her hand. Inside it was all Bi Zheng’s life records.
“Ge Ge, is this the genius program designer that Sister Manhua mentioned about getting married?”
“You know now?”
Pei Ge raised her head and skimmed through the content of the magazine. It was merely about Bi Zheng’s legendary praises. Only Qin Qitong knew the truth.
“Then, I was mistaken. Ge Ge, were you angry just now?”
“I’m not angry.”
Not only was she not angry, she even had to nicely tell her that she was not.
“That’s good.”
Mao Nana looked at Pei Ge and lowered her head to look at the things in her hands. It was as though her quarrel with Qu Xiujie had log passed.
“Nana, I’ll take this magazine. Rest well in your room. If anything happens, call me. I’m staying in the house today, so you can call me anytime.”
“Okay.”
Mao Nana nodded and watched Pei Ge walk out of the door with the magazine in her hand. She then lowered her head and quickly dialed a number on her phone.
When Pei Ge walked out of Mao Nana’s room, she met Qu Xiujie who was leaning against the wall. His gaze was cold as he looked at Pei Ge.
“Ge Ge, what did you say to Mao Nana in the room?”
Qu Xiujie went straight to the point when he saw Pei Ge walking out. His face was cold as usual and did not seem to have heard all of Mao Nana’s heartfelt words.
“Uncle, it’s very impolite of you to treat a girl like this. If you continue like this, she will be sad.”
