Ji Ziming did not expect so many people to be following him after he left the bar.
Neither did Fu Mingxuan, who was following him, expect that two people would be exiting after him.
“Eh, Mu Heng, why do I feel that Mingxuan is following Ziming?”
Liao Gaofei, who was sitting in Mu Heng’s car, looked at Fu Mingxuan’s car in confusion.
He clearly said that he had something to attend. Was his matter following their other friend?
This ought to be a coincidence!
He tried to come up with excuses for his close friend, but he might as well not do so, for Mu Heng disagreed to all of them.
“Liao dumb bird, I think Mingxuan’s hiding something from us.” He stared intently at the Mercedes in front, a scary thought occurring to him.
“What can our dear friend be hiding from us.” He rolled his eyes at him.
“Gaofei, I keep thinking…” Mu Heng pursed his lips for a bit before he voiced out his scary thought. “That Mingxuan’s goddess might very well be Pei Ge.”
“…” The other man was stunned by his words, and when he returned to himself, he started chortling. “Ha ha ha! Mu Heng, your overthinking has gone a little too far! Mingxuan’s goddess is Ziming’s girlfriend? Ha ha ha! How can that be? Ha ha!”
Mu Heng knitted his brows as he watched him laugh.
“What are you laughing about? Is it that funny?”
“Ha ha! Of course. Why would you even think that? It’s amazing…” The other continued laughing aloud, treating his words as a joke.
Made exasperated by his reaction, Mu Heng became more confident of his conjecture.
“Liao dumb bird, why don’t you explain why Mingxuan’s been acting weird lately, and it always has something to do with Ziming.”
“I’m just saying this, but you’re really overthinking things. Never mind that he won’t ever go after his close friend’s girl, just looking at that woman – how can she possibly be his goddess?”
Liao Gaofei stared debating with him.
“Come now; how can the woman he’s hung up on be her? Yes, I’ll admit that she looks really good with makeup, but once she removes it, she’s a completely ordinary woman.”
“… Little Chili’s charm doesn’t lie in her looks but in what’s inside of her. Do you think that he’s as shallow as you?”
“Fine, fine, fine! I’ll stop talking now. Since you already suspect him, nothing I say will change your mind.”
Liao Gaofei scoffed gloomily.
To him, his close friends were more important than women. No matter how great a woman was, it would never compare to his brothers.
He, thus, refused to believe that one of his close friends would go after his other close friend’s girlfriend.
“It’s not that I’m suspicious of him, but things have progressed this way. If you don’t believe me, just take a look. Why is he following Ziming? Do you think he’s the type to do this?” Mu Heng pursed his lips, feeling a little frustrated.
It was not that he wanted his guesses to be right. After all, both were his close friends, but if the woman that Fu Mingxuan had had a crush on for over a decade really turned out to be Pei Ge, things would get… complicated.
While Ji Ziming was slow when it came to relationships, but once he realized his feelings, then he would not let go easily.
As for Fu Mingxuan, while he looked easier to deal with than the other, being calm and gentlemanly, he could be quite terrifying if he were fixated on something.
It was clear from how his past girlfriends strongly resembled his first love.
Both men were not people that would let go easily. If they were in love with the same woman… He instinctively bit his lip at this thought. Things would really be bad…
“Mu Heng, see?! Mingxuan’s not following Ziming! They were just going in the same direction!”
In a moment of inattentiveness, Mu Heng saw the Mercedes, which had been tailing Ji Ziming’s car, veer toward another intersection.
He was a little surprised to see the car drive further and further away.
Am I really overthinking it? Is Mingxuan really not following Ziming because of Pei Ge?
“You see?! I told you! You’re reading too much into things!”
He discarded that bit of suspicion he had in him as he listened to the other’s words.
“En. I must really be reading too much into things this time. Please don’t tell Mingxuan about this.”
Fine. He must have overthought things; how could there be so many coincidences?
“I know. Don’t worry; I won’t speak of this embarrassing episode!” Liao Gaofei promised, feeling amused. “I’m not stupid. If the two find out about this, they’ll definitely be upset.”
“En…” He nodded absentmindedly. “Liao dumb bird, how about we help Mingxuan search for his first love goddess! I refuse to believe that, based on our abilities, we can’t find a woman!”
“En! I think so, too; after all, it’s not good for him to keep holding it in!” Liao Gaofei smiled amorously before puffing his chest haughtily. “Hang on; I’ll ask him for the name and identifying features of his first love goddess tomorrow!”
Influenced by his high spirits, Mu Heng became more interested in the matter. He had always been curious about their friend’s first love goddess.
“Why are we still following Ziming?” Liao Gaofei blinked in confusion.
“Of course, we’re going as spectators! It’s been a while since I last saw Little Chili. I miss her a little!” He shrugged and nonchalantly smiled.
Ji Ziming, who was speeding toward where Pei Ge was sighted, did not realize that he was being followed by his childhood friends.
All his thoughts were on her.
That stupid woman! Since he had found her, he was going to educate her!
