Without waiting for her to make her next move, he pulled her into his arms. His voice was extremely alluring, and his eyes were full of love and gentleness.”Where are you going? Why don’t you come to my place?”
“If you don’t want to come here, then where are you going?”
He said in a low voice as he narrowed his eyes at her. He could only see her figure in them.
“Ge Ge, I have something to tell you.”
“What is it?”
Before she could recover from the shock of the man asking her to stay and take a shower, she was brought to another topic. Seeing the serious look on his face, she could not help but sigh inwardly.
‘Ziming, are you going to tell me about my mother? Or is it about the company?”
“Ge Ge, you really know me well. That’s what I wanted to talk to you about. A few days ago, mom told me about the hotel and the guest list, and now that I think about it, old master Qu’s identity is indeed awkward. How should I put it? he was once a prominent figure in the capital, but now that he’s become like this, it’s not entirely her fault. ”
“Of course, not everything is old Madam Qu’s fault, but that doesn’t mean that mom and I can forgive him now.” She continued. Ziming, don’t forget that I have a blood feud with old Madam qu. No matter what our relationship is, it doesn’t mean that I’ll forgive him in the end. Besides, my mother’s wedding is my top priority now. As for what master qu wants to do and what he can do in the capital, it’s already very clear. ”
Her voice was cold as she looked into his eyes. She was not at all willing to say anything good for old master qu, but in her heart, old master Qu’s status seemed to make her feel even more afraid.
He didn’t know where the fear in the deepest part of his heart came from, and he wouldn’t easily forgive this ‘stranger’ who seemed to have no relationship with this ‘blood feud’.
With that, she freed herself from his embrace and stood at the side. Looking at his handsome features, she continued,”Ziming, if you think that I’ve wrongly accused old master qu of my father’s death, then let me ask you this: what are these people going to do about Ji Miao and Huang Zhian’s deaths?”
PEI GE’s heart ached at the thought of Ji Miao. She had already sent Ji Miao’s younger sister to the best hospital overseas and had her condition under control. PEI GE had also contacted her attending doctor a few times and was informed that the girl’s condition was getting better and that Ji Miao’s shadow in her was slowly recovering.
This pair of twin sisters looked so similar and had similar personalities from the start. However, what PEI GE could not understand was why she increasingly felt that Ji Miao’s younger sister was Ji Miao. The way they spoke and the jewelry they liked were exactly the same, and this made her curious.
“I’m not defending old master qu, I just feel …”
He looked at her with a trace of annoyance in his eyes. Before he could say anything, he heard her mumbling to herself, but she was clearly having extreme thoughts.
The man looked away from her and got up from the sofa. He looked at the lights not far away and continued,”Ge Ge, don’t you know what kind of place you hold in my heart? Also, if I treat you like this every day, will you feel a little sad?”
The man did not look at her, but his tall and straight figure slowly seeped into her eyes under the evening sun. When she looked up, she could see the sadness hidden in his proud and aloof back.
“I’m sorry. I was wrong. I shouldn’t have spoken to you like that.”
PEI GE looked at his back view, and her heart ached like a wave at the beach.
The two remained silent in the room. In the end, Ji Ziming carried PEI GE to the bathroom. Night soon fell, but the qu residence was not quiet at all.
“Old master, miss qu Jingwan hasn’t been home in a long time. Do you want to go and ask her? after all, she’s a member of the qu family.”
The Butler thought of qu Jingwan and her mother and felt a little regretful.
Old master qu, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room, had a frosty expression on his face. He could not help but feel disheartened at the thought of the couple’s attitude toward him at the Ji family’s Villa this afternoon.
“Why do you want to look for her? the mother and daughter came here with the old lady, and now they’re just leaving with them. What’s there to feel bad about? I’ve never wanted to keep this pair. If you feel that it’s a pity, you can go look for them. If you feel that …”
Before old master qu could finish, his cold eyes reflected the sorrow of the night. The Butler standing beside him knelt down in front of him with a ‘plop’ and hurriedly explained,”old master, old master, how could I betray you? old master, don’t be angry. I didn’t think through what I said just now. Please don’t be angry. It’s not worth it if you ruin your health. I’m just a servant. If you really feel that it’s my fault, you have to tell me. If I offend you again, I …”
“You can get up. You’re already so old, why are you still kneeling for me?”
Master qu sighed and looked at the Butler in front of him, the sadness in his heart rising to the extreme.
“Alright, then don’t be angry, old master. This is all because I’m not good at talking.”
The Butler guiltily stood up and looked into his eyes.”Then, master, since you don’t want to call miss Jingwan back or look for miss PEI GE, what do you want to do? our family can’t just fall apart like this. Old master, if you want to look for miss PEI GE or Madam Zhang manhua, I’ll help you find them, but if you want to …”
“Butler, you don’t need to be here. Go and rest. I want to be alone.”
Master qu looked at the Butler, the coldness in his voice mixed with the sadness in the air.
