Chapter 2900: The photos
Translator: 549690339
Although Ji Ziming’s eyes were closed, he could not hear the sound of the door closing or PEI GE’s voice. Guessing that she was obediently watching him sleep, the corners of his lips curled up in satisfaction.
Naturally, she did not know that he was doing this on purpose. Once she sat down, she took out her laptop and started reading her work email.
In fact, she had hesitated for a long time before leaving the company for his house. After much thought, she decided that it would be more appropriate to use work as an excuse, so she brought her laptop with her.
The moonlight outside the window brightened. After an unknown period of time, she finally finished the work that she did not have the time to finish in the day, including the emails that needed to be replied to and the project report on Cheng Qian’s interview.
She stretched lazily with a smile and then looked at the sleeping Ji Ziming. Pouting, she reached for her phone to check the time.
Who knew that his phone would run out of battery?
It was already dark outside. Although PEI GE had texted Shen Feng and Wen Xin to inform them that she would be back late due to working overtime, they would definitely be worried about her if they were worried that she was not back yet and could not be reached by phone.
Thinking that this would not work, she slowly got up from the sofa and tiptoed toward the office desk nearby to see if the man had a phone charger of the same model.
Since it was not on the table, she could only look suspiciously at the bedside table beside him.
She mulled it over for a while. Although she was afraid of waking him up, she still mustered her courage and tiptoed over.
She did not see the charger, but she did see a photo on the bedside table. In the photo, she and Ji Ziming were smiling like flowers by a Green Lake.
Her eyes were immediately attracted to him. This was something that she could not remember at all. It turned out that she and Ji Ziming really had such a passionate moment back then.
She could not help but pick up the photo and look at her warm smile and the man’s gentle eyes with his arms around her shoulders.
As she looked at the photo, she was already lost in thought. She kept searching for any memory of the photo in her mind, but she couldn’t remember it. Instead, she felt a sharp pain in her heart and her brain cells seemed to explode one by one, making her feel dizzy and dizzy. She released the photo with one hand and subconsciously touched her temple.
“What are you doing?” Ji Ziming, who had woken up at some point, asked this question when he saw her looking uncomfortable with the photo in her hand.
She could not care less about the discomfort caused by the headache and let go of the glass frame in her hand in a moment of panic. Bang! The sound of the glass frame shattering reverberated through the quiet room.
The man was completely shocked awake this time. He abruptly sat up on the bed and saw her wide-eyed and frowning. She was covering her ears in panic when she saw the shattered mirror frame on the floor. He quickly pulled her into his arms.
She was clearly still in shock as she looked at the man’s handsome face with fear. She felt as if she was about to be swallowed by his gentle eyes.
“Did you get splashed by the glass?” His sexy lips moved slightly as he asked this.
It was only after a few seconds that she finally asked,””I’m fine, but … How did we get this photo?”
After asking that, she looked at the photo frame on the ground, which was covered in broken glass.
He did not let go of her and, instead, calmly replied,””We just started dating not long ago. When we went on a date, a passerby in the park took a picture of us. It was a long time ago.”
A trace of disappointment flashed across her eyes when she heard that. Her dizziness seemed to have subsided a little in his arms, and she tried to break free from his embrace.
“Hey, don’t move! I’ll call Madam Zhang to clean it up, be careful not to hurt your feet. ” Ji Ziming reprimanded her nervously before carefully placing her on the other side of his body. He then got off the bed and quickly walked to the door to call Auntie Zhang downstairs to bring a broom up.
PEI GE felt that if Auntie Zhang saw her in Ji Ziming’s bed, she would not be able to explain herself, so she tucked her hair behind her ear and climbed down from the other side of the bed.
At the old villa.
This was the second time Shen Feng had called her, and the cold voice of the customer service representative was still the only thing he heard.
Not far from the living room, Wen Xin and Cheng ning were sorting out the information they had collected over the past two days. From time to time, Wen Xin would look at Shen Feng’s poker face that was as cold as an Ice Mountain and nag at Cheng Ningyuan.
“Hey, do you think that sister Pei Pei was bewitched by that scumbag to work overtime again? Mr. Shen seems to have been unable to reach sister Pei PEI’s phone since dinner. I’ve tried, but it’s turned off. Perhaps we’ll have to go to the Ji family to get her back. ” Wen Xin said resentfully.
Cheng Ningyuan remained silent, his sharp eyes staring at the laptop screen.
Seeing that Cheng Ningyuan did not respond, Wen Xin continued to Jabber on and on,””Hey, if Mr. Shen has enough evidence, how do you think he’ll deal with Ji Ziming, that scumbag, during the product launch? “Ji Ziming is so high and mighty in A city. If he’s really defeated by Mr. Shen in one fell swoop, it shouldn’t be easy for him. I keep feeling that our chances of winning are slim, and we’ve been back for so long, but we don’t seem to have …”
At this point, Wen Xin lifted her eyelids slightly and looked at Cheng Ningyuan. Who knew that Cheng Ningyuan would treat Wen Xin like she was air? from the beginning to the end, he had been staring at the laptop screen with a slight frown, as if he had not heard a single word.
Wen Xin’s brows furrowed slightly as she looked at Shen Feng, who was looking out of the window in a deep voice, not too far away. She huffed angrily as she walked up to Cheng Ningyuan and said,””Hey, Cheng Ningyuan, are you listening to me? Don’t you think that the atmosphere at home is very low because sister Pei Pei is not home yet?”
Cheng Ningyuan still didn’t look up. He just slightly opened his thin lips and raised his eyebrows,””That’s why we need to find sister Pei Pei as soon as possible, and not make some useless guesses and complain like you are. ”
Wen Xin was taken aback and quickly turned her gaze to the laptop screen.””Ah? I thought you were sorting out the information you’ve collected, but it turns out you’re looking for sister Pei Pei. How was it? Did you find out where he is?”
