Provocative Fiery Wife: My Superior is a Affectionate Spitfire

By the time she departed from the man’s house, not only had she acquired an elevator IC card, she had even obtained its owner.

She pursed her lips at the sight of the man leaving the penthouse with her.

I really don’t get what this annoying fellow is thinking. When I said I have to leave, he insisted on going with me.

“Ziming, you still have work in the afternoon, right? I can just take the subway to the hospital. It’s not an inconvenience, anyway.” She told him this while standing beside the car the man had driven out of the garage.

Ever since the change in her way of addressing him, the feeling she gave off when speaking to him had become notably different.

There was always a distant feeling in the past when she addressed him as ‘CEO Ji’.

However, after switching it out for ‘Ziming’, their relationship seemed to have become much more ambiguous.

“Get in,” he coldly ordered, choosing not to respond to her suggestion.

Noticing the man’s unwillingness to hear her out, she decided to stop trying and promptly hopped into the passenger seat.

Once she was comfortably seated in the car, he stepped on the accelerator and drove away from the neighborhood.

While the car was steadily driving on the road, she carefully turned her attention to the man from watching the passing scenery outside.

When she judged that the man was in a good mood, she lightly coughed and cautiously broached, “Ziming… If you visit my mom with me later, I’ll address you like before, okay?”

If her mother were to hear her calling this annoying fellow ‘Ziming’, she would definitely see through their lie.

“Mhm,” he acknowledged without looking at her.

At his affirmative reply, she found him to be more approachable today, so she took this chance to chat him up further.

“Also, I think it’s best if I address you as ‘CEO Ji’ when we’re at the office. It’s not like you need to pretend in front of your employees,” she softly suggested while keeping her eyes on his profile.

The car slowly stopped at a red light, and he turned to look at her.

“You have really thought this through, huh.”

She was unable to see through his expressionless face, so she could not determine whether he was angry or not.

“He he, it’s only proper.” She laughed dryly and promptly shut her mouth.

Instantly, the air in the car seemed to have stilled.

This was when she realized that she had somehow unknowingly offended the temperamental annoying fellow.

When the green light came on, the car slowly started moving again.

With the conclusion of their talk, the car was now totally silent.

She also did not continue observing the man. Directing all her attention on what was outside the window instead, she gave the impression that the scenery outside was exceptionally spectacular.

Soon, they reached the capital’s main hospital.

He parked the car and was about to hop off it with her when his phone started ringing.

He halted his action and answered this call.

Unbuckling her seatbelt, she turned to look at the man. When she saw his solemn and calm expression, she surmised that the call was something related to business.

Indeed, it was as she had deemed; the call was from his company.

He hummed on the phone a few times before hanging up and informing her that he had to take his leave.

“I will come pick you up tonight. I have some urgent matters to deal with at the company.”

He really seemed to be a husband reporting to his wife of his schedule for the day the way he delivered this news.

“Oh, you don’t need to come and bring me home later. I’ve been staying at the hospital for several days now. The ward you arranged for my mom is really good and the bed is large enough to fit me and my mom.” She waved off his offer.

He did not insist on this at her refusal and, with a nod at her, said, “Okay.”

“Then, CEO…” Receiving a sharp glare from the man, she instantly corrected herself with a gulp. “Ziming! I will be off now. You can go to your work.”

“Mhm,” he hummed in response.

She smiled at him, opened the car door, and promptly jumped off the car.

She was about to close the door when her eyes collided with his smoldering irises. For some reason, as if her brain had short-circuited, she said something she would never have said with a clear mind.

“Be careful when you drive…”

She only realized what she had said once the words were out of her mouth, and her cheeks instantly heat up and became as red as beetroot.

She lightly bit on her lower lip and did not dare to peek at his expression. With athud , she slammed the door shut, pivoted, and ran straight into the hospital.

A certain, great CEO was left in the car with a dazed and dumbfounded look.

His mind slowly cleared the moment he heard the door closing.

Watching the receding back, his lips and eyes slowly showed a smile. There was also a gentleness on his face he himself did not realize.

In that moment, all he could think of was her words of concern. ‘Be careful when you drive…’ Her gentle, soft, and loving words played on loop in his mind.

It was as if… she were a very gentle and concerned wife of his.

“He he…” he chuckled, a loving and doting look on his face.

That stupid woman…

It was only when her figure had completely disappeared from his line of sight that the gentleness and happiness slowly subsided from his face.

His face returned to being stoic and cold.

Huff, huff, huff! She only stopped running once she reached the hospital’s main lobby.

Since she rushed madly, when she finally halted, her face was entirely red and her breathing was labored.

She was about to go to her mother’s ward by getting in the elevator when a somewhat familiar voice sounded.

“Ge Ge?! What are you doing here?”

Joy and elation could be detected in that familiar voice. It was evident that the person was very happy to see her.

When she looked in the direction of the voice’s origin, she spotted a familiar face.

“Oh… It’s you!”
