Seeing this, Ji Ziming was even more furious.””Pei Pei, what are you doing? Get up!”
“Ziming, can you calm down and give me a chance to explain? we’re not in the kind of relationship you think we are. I already told you that I’m here to look for Ning Yuan!” PEI GE’s eyes reddened. The people on the street stopped in their tracks to watch the show.
Ji Ziming felt embarrassed. He knew that he had acted rashly, but he had already thrown a punch, and the onlookers thought that he was catching a female gangster. Now that PEI GE said that he had misunderstood, wouldn’t it be very embarrassing if he were to lower his head and admit defeat?
“How is it? Have you calmed down? Can I explain?” Seeing his silence and dark expression, she continued to argue with him.
Ling Feng was a little dizzy from the punch, but after hearing the conversation between the two, he roughly understood the situation. He found it funny that this woman’s husband was an Asian King of jealousy. At the same time, he felt that this might not be a bad thing, so he covered his aching cheek and curled his lips.
Ji Ziming remained silent, so PEI GE helped Ling Feng up with a frown.””How are you? Do you want to go to the hospital first?”
“Didn’t you want to explain to me? First, you left without saying goodbye, and now I’ve seen you with another strange man with my own eyes, and you’re so concerned about him. How can I believe that you’re just here to find Cheng Ningyuan?” Ji Ziming’s jealousy flared up again when he saw her intimately holding Ling Feng’s arm. He originally believed in her, but her actions now seemed to indicate that she was inextricably linked to this man.
Seeing him shake his head, she rolled her eyes at the sky and explained,””I really came here to look for Ning Yuan and the others, but my car burst out halfway. Fortunately, I got Ling Feng’s help to return to town. Otherwise, you probably wouldn’t be able to find me by now. ”
Ji Ziming was taken aback. Of course, he believed her words, but he could not accept that this man was the one who had helped her in that situation. A man’s intuition told him that this man was not simply trying to help a weak woman. Even if he was, the way he was looking at her was already off.
“Yes, sir, you have indeed misunderstood us. Nothing happened between me and your wife. Just now, she wanted to treat me to a meal as thanks, but I refused. So, when I was about to leave, your wife was a little embarrassed and wanted to keep me. But unfortunately, you saw it. It’s not what you think. ” Ling Feng covered his face and hurriedly explained as well. His eyes were full of sincerity and did not seem to be provoking the man.
She looked at Ling Feng suspiciously. Although what he said was true, his tone was far from his earlier overbearing attitude. Wasn’t he always trying to get close to her? Why are you in such a hurry to draw the line now? Could it be that she was afraid of that punch from Ji Ziming?
Finding it funny, her brows relaxed. If not for the man’s suspicion, she would have probably smiled.
Ji Ziming took in the subtle interaction between the two. Although he seemed to believe the man and PEI GE’s explanation, he still felt that their relationship was not that simple. A man’s intuition told him that he was in danger.
He naturally trusted her wholeheartedly, but that man clearly had ill intentions toward her. He had to be on guard, careful, careful, and even more careful.
“If that’s the case, then I really have to apologize for my reckless behavior just now. However, I was too nervous about my wife. I’m sorry, Sir!” After hesitating for a while, Ji Ziming made a serious decision and apologized to Ling Feng.””By the way, Sir, didn’t you just say that my wife wanted to treat you to a meal to thank you? In fact, I should be the one to set an example for this matter as her husband. Besides, I just hit you, Sir, so this meal is even more unavoidable. I’ll have someone book the most comfortable restaurant in this town. Please wait a moment. ”
Ji Ziming was not inviting them to a banquet to apologize but to declare his sovereignty. He emphasized the words ‘Sir’ and ‘Madam’ and even acted like a nouveau riche who needed to show off in front of his ‘Savior’ to express his gratitude.
“No need, Sir!” Ling Feng immediately interrupted Ji Ziming, who was about to call his Secretary to book a restaurant. At the side, PEI GE’s face turned pale and filled with embarrassment.
“What’s wrong? Sir, are you still not willing to do me the honor?” Although he looked confused, his heart was as clear as a mirror. Feeling smug, he even took the opportunity to tightly hold her hand.
“Oh, of course not. I can see that Sir’s identity must be extraordinary. Treating me to a meal as thanks is naturally out of sincere gratitude. In fact, I haven’t had time to introduce myself. I’m a native of this town. I’ve been influenced by my hometown since I was a child. When others encounter difficulties, I’ll definitely do my best to help. So, helping your wife previously was simply a matter of lifting a finger, not worth mentioning. If we were to accept your invitation, it would seem that our simple and traditional customs have changed. ” Ling Feng’s words were smooth and slick, leaving the two speechless.
Seeing this, Ling Feng laughed dryly and said,””So, I’m very grateful for your invitation. Really, I appreciate your kindness, but please take it back. By the way, your wife’s car is in that repair shop, and it should be ready soon. Why don’t you accompany your wife to see the condition of the car first? I still have something to do, so I won’t disturb you any longer. ”
Just as Ling Feng was about to leave, PEI GE called out to him,””Mr. Ling, you …”
The man tugged at her hand, seemingly hinting that she was about to leave, so why did she still chase after her?
Ling Feng turned around and laughed dryly,””Miss, please don’t keep me here. I really didn’t expect your husband to care so much about you. I helped him out of goodwill, but I got punched instead. However, I think this punch was worth it, because it proves that your husband really cherishes you. I’ve always been envious of the couple who finally got together. Alright, I’ll go back and apply some medicine. Although I don’t rely on my face to make a living, it’ll be harder for me to find a girlfriend if my face is really disfigured. ”
Although it was obviously a joke, she still tugged at the corner of her lips and laughed. Actually, the reason she had stopped Ling Feng was to urge him to buy some medicine to treat his wound. She did not expect him to say it himself, and with such a humorous tone at that.
Ji Ziming could tell that while his wife did not have any feelings for another man and had no second thoughts about him, another man already had his eyes on her. He had a vague feeling that this man would not just disappear from their lives like this.
