After leaving the dessert house, Pei Ge did not immediately flag down a taxi. Instead, she strolled along the brightly lit pavement with the beautiful night scenery as her company.
The bustling crowd, shining neon lights, and cold wind made her feel much better.
She actually had nothing to be angry about. She had only known Chen Zhengchu for less than a month. She was also not taken advantage of in any way, nor did she fall in love with him.
Breaking up did not sadden her. Rather, she felt regretful that the first marriage proposal she had received turned out like this.
With such a meaningful event ending up in this way, I feel stuffy inside every time I think of it. Luckily, I was quick-witted and did not easily agree to it. Otherwise, I would really lose so much face.
Pei Ge mindlessly walked along the streets, ignoring the incessant ringing of the hand phone in her handbag.
As she continued walking, the streets grew quieter as the number of cars on the road became fewer.
Because of this, she began to pay less attention to the cars as her mind fully focused on the surrounding scenery.
However, the small number of cars did not mean that no cars were around.
As she was admiring a branded shop in the distance, a car sped toward her.
The driver of the car was probably drunk as it still continued to speed toward her despite its headlights shining directly on her.
The glaring headlights of the car made Pei Ge regain her senses, and she froze up in place when she saw the car speeding toward her.
At this moment, another car rushed over and stopped horizontally in front of the other car.
Bang! The two cars collided with each other. Pei Ge only felt a gust of wind with a lot of dust hit her.
She subconsciously closed her eyes.
When she opened them again, she saw that a black car was no more than 40 centimeters in front of her.
This car looked very familiar.
“Ahh!” she shrieked, This car is similar to Ji Ziming’s!
Pei Ge immediately became flustered and quickly rushed up to pound on the car window.
“Hey! Hey! Is the person inside alright?!” She pounded. Just as she thought that the person inside had fainted and was about to call for an ambulance, the car window rolled down.
That handsome and god-like features immediately entered her sight. Under the glow of the moonlight, the man looked cooler and more elegant, giving off a noble aura.
“You – You…” Holding her hand phone, she dazedly looked at Ji Ziming’s face. She was so nervous that she did not know what to say.
Ji Ziming, on the other hand, had a lot to say.
“Are you crazy?! Don’t you know to look at the road while you’re walking?! It is just a break up! Are you going to die just because of that?!” His face was very dark, yet his eyes were filled with rage and panic.
This was his first time feeling panicked and flustered, and it was all because of this woman.
“I… I…” She froze up at that.
She was confused as to why he would be here and why he would scold her like that.
He opened the door and alighted from the car.
After coldly checking her and confirming that she was unhurt, he circled around his car toward the other car.
Pei Ge quickly followed behind him quickly.
Only when she had circled to the other side did she see how badly Ji Ziming’s car was damaged.
The passenger seat had totally caved in from the impact.
At such a scary sight, she rejoiced inside, The other car fortunately did not hit the driver’s seat. If not… I really can’t imagine what would happen to Ji Ziming.
His car was severely damaged, but the other car was not in a better shape.
Of course, this was mainly because the other car’s protective features were not as good as Ji Ziming’s. Hence, the driver was currently sitting in the driver’s seat with a face covered in blood.
“Ahhh! Let’s quickly call an ambulance!” Pei Ge nervously shrieked when she saw the horrible state of the driver who had caused the accident.
However, Ji Ziming merely sneered and said, “You don’t have to worry about this. I’ll handle it.”
“Hm?” She looked at him with confusion. Isn’t all it takes a phone call? What is there to handle?
In the end, he called his assistant and instructed him to call the family lawyer, the police, and, lastly, an ambulance. Only after hearing his words did she realize that things had gotten serious.
“CEO – CEO Ji, what are you planning to do?” She looked at the man with fear. The Ji Ziming right now frightened her a lot.
“What am I planning to do? Make him pay the price of what he did, of course!” He was burning with rage right now. His heart would flutter with inexplicable terror and panic every time he thought of how this dumb woman would have certainly been knocked down by the car if he had not been following behind her.
Pei Ge carefully gulped while mumbling inside, He is really a petty man who takes his revenge no matter what the circumstance is. I should never ever offend him….
After silently standing beside him for a while, she was about to bid him goodbye when she saw a car drive over and stop in front of them.
“CEO Ji, I am so sorry for coming late.” Ji Ziming’s assistant, Du Wen, got off the car and immediately reported to him, “Lawyer Li is on his way here, and we have already spoken to Superintendent Wang.”
“Alright. You will stay here to settle this with the police.” Du Wen nodded his head and furtively swept his gaze across Pei Ge.
This woman… seems to really be special to our big boss….
“You, follow me.” Ji Ziming received the car key from Du Wen and coldly peered at the woman standing like a little wife behind him.
“Huh?” She looked at him dumbly, not understanding what he meant.
Her mind was in a jumbled mess because of the car accident.
“Get in the car! Don’t make me say it thrice!” He narrowed his eyes and said this in an ice-cold tone.
“Oh!” She nodded her head and followed behind him.
Once she was inside the car, she buckled up her seat belt and peeked at the man. When she saw the cold expression on his flawless side profile as he entered the car, she clutched the seat belt anxiously.
She did not know why she felt guilty. Still, she had this vague feeling that his sudden appearance and timely rescue of her was not coincidental.
