“Pei Ge, do you believe me or not?”
Qu Jingwan’s eyes brightened as she looked at Pei Ge. “Or did you guys already know?”
Qu Jingwan leaned back and continued, “That’s right. What else can you hide from your eyes in the capital? If my granny really did something that made you guys feel embarrassed, I’m afraid you guys would have already come up with a countermeasure.”
“We didn’t do anything, but we can confirm that you and your grandmother can’t escape.”
Pei Ge’s eyes darkened as she looked at Qu Jingwan and stood up. “I’m glad you told me this secret, but I don’t have anything to thank you for.”
Pei Ge’s eyes were filled with murderous intent as she looked at Qu Jingwan coldly. “Miss Qu, you should know that since I can help you up, I can pull you down too.”
When everything had not come to an end, nothing was absolute. It was just that the time was not up yet and the person you were waiting for had not arrived.
“Pei Ge, you!”
Qu Jingwan did not expect that her kind intention to help Pei Ge solve the Ji Group’s biggest problem would end up like this. Before it could be resolved, Pei Ge or Ji Ziming had already destroyed the Qu family in the capital.
“Pei Ge, what do you mean? What do you guys want to do?”
Qu Jingwan grabbed Pei Ge’s hand anxiously as her eyes turned sorrowful. “Pei Ge, explain it to me clearly. Are you guys still going to do something?”
“I didn’t say that. I only told her I would treat her they way she treated the people around me. No matter what she does, I won’t be afraid. At most, we’ll fight to the death. Her death will not be any better than mine!”
Pei Ge’s voice was vicious and her whole body reeked of blood. Seeing that Qu Jingwan’s body was trembling and her voice was choked with emotion, she said, “Pei Ge, just do good…”
“Why? Why are you pleading for her now? She sent you out for a business marriage some time ago.”
Pei Ge’s eyes shone with disdain. How could such a woman have the right to fight with her over Ji Ziming?
The two women entangled themselves in the coffee house for a few minutes before Pei Ge left the place with a dashing silhouette and drove to Ji Group.
The people in the company were still working in an orderly manner, as though the Ji Group’s incident did not affect them much. When the security guard at the entrance saw that it was Pei Ge, he saluted and said loudly, “Greetings, Madam Ji!”
“Hi!”
Pei Ge merely nodded her head and quickly ran into the elevator.
After the incident at the hospital, Ji Ziming did not return home for a night. He stayed at the police station the whole night. Although Pei Ge was at home, she was really nervous and did not rest well.
“Madam, the CEO is not in the office.”
The elevator doors opened and Pei Ge was about to enter the CEO’s office when she was stopped by the secretary at the door. The secretary said with difficulty, “The CEO should still be in the police station.”
“Still at the police station? Didn’t they say that the CEO is no longer a suspect?”
Pei Ge’s heart was in her mouth. What was going on? She had specially paid attention to the news this morning and thought that Ji Ziming would be at the company by now, but he was not there.
“Madam, don’t be anxious. The CEO is already cleared of all suspicion and has evidence to prove that he didn’t instigate this, but there isn’t enough evidence to find out who the real murderer is.”
“Who is that dead woman?”
Pei Ge calmed herself down. It did not matter if Ji Ziming was not in the company. She was still here.
“I don’t know. This information is confidential. We don’t know either.”
The secretary was caught between a rock and a hard place. She adjusted her gold-framed spectacles and said, “Madam, why don’t you wait here, or do you want to go back?”
“No need. I’ll go to the police station now.”
With that, she took the elevator down. The smell of Ji Ziming still lingered in the CEO’s private elevator.
However, the more she thought about it, the more worried she felt about him. The only thing on her mind was the possibility of being tortured in the police station.
When the car reached the police station, the security guard brought Pei Ge in.
The atmosphere was too tense.
Pei Ge did not even dare to speak loudly, but when she walked into a black house, Ji Ziming, who was sitting at the side, had a solemn expression on his face. He was so angry that the people around him did not even dare to breathe.
“Ziming, you…”
She frowned at him.
“Ge Ge, you’re here.”
Ji Ziming raised his head and looked at Pei Ge. His eyes lit up like stars in the dark night sky. They were so bright that they could only be seen in Pei Ge’s eyes. His eyes were actually so gentle when he looked at her.
“Ziming, what are you doing?”
Pei Ge walked forward but did not notice that Ji Ziming was being put in a spot. Instead, she felt that he was making things difficult for others. A man in a police uniform sat beside him as he nervously searched for something on his computer.
There was a picture of a woman lying on the computer desk.
“Come, sit here.”
Ji Ziming waved his hand and signaled for Pei Ge to walk over. The moment she reached his side, she was pulled into his embrace by Ji Ziming, who was sitting on the sofa. Although his actions were rough, they were gentle.
“Be more mindful. This is the police station.”
Pei Ge said softly but did not look at the people around her.
It seemed that Ji Ziming was the only one in the room who could speak. Everyone else had their backs facing them nervously.
“Do you know who that woman is?”
Ji Ziming’s lips curled up as he looked at Pei Ge with his deep eyes.
“No idea.”
She shook her head.
Who the dead woman was had nothing to do with Pei Ge.
“Let me tell you, that woman is the woman who caused your back to be badly hurt at the previous gathering.”
“Didn’t you say that she died in a car accident?”
Pei Ge’s eyes widened. Could it be that what Ji Ziming said in the past did not exist but sounded real in Pei Ge’s ears?
“She’s been hidden. Don’t worry; I’ll handle it.”
He nodded and held her hand.
