“You should give up on him.”
I’m saying this for this lady’s good. She’s clearly not the preferred gender of Qimo, so how can they successfully date each other?!
She sighed helplessly inside.
Obviously, her heartfelt advice was lost on Ji Lelin. Glaring at her with loathing, she spat, “No! What do you know?! You’re a terrible woman who doesn’t know what love is. What right do you have to say this kind of thing to me?!”
“…”* Hur hur. Fine. I shouldn’t have meddled in their affairs.*
Her lips twitched at the corner at the lady’s animosity for her, and she decided not to speak more about the issue.
Instead, it was Qin Qitong who had a lot to say. Coldly snorting, she retorted, “Hur hur. Yes, yes, yes. Our Sister Pei Ge doesn’t know love and you know it. I don’t think you know much about it, though, or else why won’t your Ah Mo like you back?
“Tch! My Sister Pei Ge is giving you advice out of goodwill, yet you don’t know how to appreciate it.”
It was actually no surprise for this girl to treat the other so harshly. After all, while their families had been friends for generations, these two ladies had been at odds with each other since forever.
It was only when Ji Lelin had gone overseas to further her studies that the animosity between them lessened.
However, meeting each other like this and seeing her nemesis’s treatment of her dear friend, how could she not be sharp with her words, especially when she had a bone to pick with the other?
“You!” Ji Lelin was about to explode as the other’s words fiercely stabbed her heart many times.
“All right, all right. Stop quarreling. We are here today to shop with Ge Ge and not to quarrel.” Mother Ji reminded everyone of this when she saw that the two young ladies were about to have a catfight.
“Lelin, Ge Ge is not how you think she is; I hope that you don’t speak like this about her again.”
Ji Lelin really felt wronged when the older woman reprimanded her with a stern face.
She really did not get why everyone would side with this woman despite her vileness!
Brother Ziming is like that! Ah Mo is the same, too! Now, Qin Qitong is siding with her as well! Finally, even Auntie Ji is scolding me because of this worthless woman…
“Auntie Ji, I hope that you won’t be cheated by her. She’s really not as good as you guys think! Everything you are seeing now is just an act! If not, she wouldn’t have abandoned Ah Mo for your son despite her knowing that I’ve gone on a blind date with Brother Ziming!” Her voice was quivering when she said this.
“Hur hur! Ji Lelin, are you done speaking?! We are very clear what kind of person Sister Pei Ge is, so please stop slandering her in front of us! Come tell us again when you have concrete evidence!” Qin Qitong coldly scolded her.
As the person that the three were talking about, Pei Ge could only shake her head helplessly at all this. This woman is really…
Still, I can’t really blame her. It’s mainly because of that jerk! If it’s not for that Qimo being too pretentious, she won’t be misunderstanding me now and trying to find trouble with me!
Seeing that no one was believing her, Ji Lelin clenched her fists tightly and turned around to leave the Chanel store.
Pei Ge shook her head sympathetically at the departing lady.
“Sister Pei Ge, let’s go and shop. Don’t mind her anymore!”
“Mhm…” She nodded absentmindedly, unexplainably feeling a gaze on her.
The moment she turned around, a figure appeared at her blind spot.
This figure belonged to an elegant, tall, and skinny female in a white dress and a light-green coat.
Her eyes remained fixed on Pei Ge as a vicious glint shone in them.
“Pei Ge… what a coincidence.”
That woman’s lips curled into a mocking smile. “It seems that you’ve been living a really good life! Ji Ziming’s girlfriend… it’s really your luck…”
…
“Ge Ge, hurry and ‘fess up to auntie. Who is that Ah Mo?”
Mother Ji asked her while they picked out clothes.
Although that lady’s words made her feel uncomfortable, she could still understand a young woman having a few ex-boyfriends!
The most important thing here was that her son liked Pei Ge and the latter liked her son back. She did not care about the other details.
“That’s right, Sister Pei Ge. Is that Ah Mo really your ex-boyfriend?” Qin Qitong also looked at her curiously.
She was aware of her going on several blind dates, but she never saw her officially dating anyone.
More importantly, that Ji Lelin had extremely high standards! Hence, the man she chose would definitely not be average.
Such a man was actually this infatuated and devoted to Pei Ge; how could she not be curious about it?!
“… Sigh. I really have no relation to him.” Pei Ge pursed her lips helplessly.
“I did go on a blind date with that man before, but we never became an item; don’t think too much into this.”
Even if she must date that annoying fellow, she would still not date Wen Qimo! As she said before, how could she date a man with the same gender preference as her?!
I really pity that Ji lady. She could have anyone, yet she chose to fall in love with that gay guy.
“Is that true?” Mother Ji did not suspect her words. Merely shaking her head, she stopped talking about this topic.
However, just as Pei Ge thought that everything was over, Mother Ji looked at her again with excitement.
“So, did you feel angry when you saw Ming Ming on a blind date with Lelin?”
“Er!” Her lips twitched as she spat inside her, I didn’t! Not even the least bit!
“Oh, right. What were you doing when Ming Ming was having that blind date?” The older woman shot her a suspicious look.
She blurted out without thinking, “Oh. I was also on a blind date then.”
“Pfft!” Qin Qitong laughed aloud at her honest reply and gave her a thumbs-up. “Sister Pei Ge, you are still the best.”
“Ha ha! Ming Ming must’ve been so mad!” Mother Ji also laughed gleefully.
Fuming? Hm?! It really seems to be the case!
Recalling the scene on that day, that man… indeed seemed to have eaten some explosives…
“Ha ha! That’s for sure! Cousin, that iceberg, was probably fuming!” The girl laughed until tears came out of her eyes.
“Ge Ge, you may very well be the only woman who can make my son suffer!” She patted her shoulder genially.
The look she had seemed to say, ‘In the future, please continue making my stupid son suffer!’
As for Pei Ge, she was at a loss on why the aunt-niece pair was laughing. She totally did not get what was funny for them to laugh about so heartily.
What’s going on here? Did something funny happen?
