With that, she got up and smiled at the man, who was frowning deeply.
The man was so angry that the veins on his forehead were popping.
Just as he was about to retort, she added,””President Ji, I’ve already eaten. Do you have any other orders? If not, it’s already too late. Can I go back now?”
With that, she continued to put on a fake smile as she looked at the man’s handsome face, which was filled with anger and hostility, as if she was holding onto her last bit of stubbornness.
The coldness in his eyes intensified, but she did not take it to heart.
She thought that he was at his wit’s end, but without him, after exchanging glances with her for a few seconds, he suppressed his anger and, once again, picked up the jewelry box at the corner of the table.
She looked at the man, who was slowly walking toward her, in surprise. The exquisite jewelry box in his hands made her tremble slightly.
He couldn’t help but think,”isn’t this for Luo Yi? What did he mean by that? Luo Yi was missing, and he prepared this table full of food for him. Did he just make Luo Yi angry, and now he wants me to run errands again? You want me to send this jewelry to Luo Yi as an apology? What the … This man’s heart is really dark!”
At this thought, she glared at the man’s tall figure.
Ji Ziming naturally could not see through her meticulous thoughts. He only wanted to give this necklace to her personally and put it on for her. This necklace was not just a token of sincerity and jewelry, but also an important tool for him to crack the relationship between PEI GE and Shen Feng.
Her heart was about to jump out of her throat as the man closed in on her, but she still swallowed her saliva and pretended to be calm.””President Ji, you’re not asking me to run an errand again to send this necklace to miss Luo Yi, are you? You made her angry just now and she ran away?”
She looked at him with raised brows, gloating at his misfortune. There was also a hint of unwillingness in her cunning eyes.
Sighing helplessly, he flicked her forehead.””What’s on your little head all day? Who said I made her angry? Who said this was for Luo Yi?”
PEI GE was even more incredulous. She looked around with widened eyes and pointed at her nose with her pinky.”If it’s not for miss Luo Yi, then why do you want me to run so fast to get it? Could it be that there are other old friends of yours coming to this villa later? Or are they already here?”
“Ha ha ha …” He had never looked so relaxed and happy before. She had to admit that her words had really amused him.
“Pei Pei, if I tell you that you’re one of my old friends, would you believe me?” With that, he placed his large and strong hands on her shoulders as he stared intently at the lovely woman before him.
Her watery eyes widened as she surveyed the villa’s surroundings. She asked him in disbelief,””CEO Ji, you’re joking, right? You must’ve made miss Luo Yi angry, she’s looking at us in that room, you want to use me to act for her right?”
She blinked her big, mischievous eyes at the man. She seemed to be waiting for him to confirm her suspicions.
He shook his head and gave a helpless smile.””Don’t worry. Luo Yi is just my good friend. She’s already gone, and we were really acting for you just now. I’ve said it before; you’re the only woman I’ve ever had. No matter who I’m with, it’s just an act. You have to believe me, these exquisite and delicious food and this necklace in my hand are all for you!”
With that, he even opened the necklace box in his hand. The shining diamond looked even more dazzling under the light, causing her eyes to fall into a daze.
She squinted her eyes and asked,””CEO Ji, let go of me first. You’re using too much force and hurting me!”
She felt that if she accepted the necklace from him, it would be even messier. Thus, with a flustered and shy expression, she tried to get him to let go of her and think of a way to reject him.
Who knew that the man seemed to have made up his mind as he unwillingly let go of her, though he still ordered,””Turn around, I’ll help you put it on.”
“No! No! No! I can’t accept this!” She hurriedly waved her hands.
Her face was filled with an awkward smile, and her beautiful brows furrowed as she anxiously refused,””I know that you’ve always remembered the past that I can’t remember. But now, we’ve both found our own homes, haven’t we? I already have Shen Feng, how can I accept such an expensive gift from you? Isn’t this two-timing?”
At her words, the joy and adoration in his eyes disappeared and were replaced by layers of mist.
PEI GE actually rejected him so quickly and even pushed him to Luo Yi!
He narrowed his sharp eyes at her. The fire in his eyes seemed to want to burn her up and swallow her whole.
She did not dare to look him in the eye and merely continued,””And I think that miss Luo Yi is really not bad, she’s a good match for you. Since you’ve been apart for a long time, it means that fate is still there. I think you should really let go of our past and accept a new relationship. Miss Luo Yi is not bad, really, you should give her this expensive necklace!”
He finally glared at her when he heard that. His hand pinched her chin and he lifted it up to her blushing face.””Pei Pei, I’ve said it before, I won’t let you go so easily, and I won’t let you and Shen Feng walk to the end. Are you so eager to push me to another woman? Do I make you so disgusted?”
Panic flashed in her eyes. She knew that her words had thoroughly infuriated him.
However, if she did not take a firm stand, the man would probably treat her even worse in the days to come. She had never been his prey or Canary, and she would never become his plaything.
