Provocative Fiery Wife: My Superior is a Affectionate Spitfire

The woman did not know what had happened in the salon after she left.

Meanwhile, the man did not know that he had just earned himself an ‘enemy’ because of his order to ‘snatch’ a film roll.

The car quickly reached its destination.

“Sit here and don’t move.”

When the car stopped, she moved to open the door and alight from it, but the man stopped her from doing so.

“… Oh.” Although she did not know why he had ordered her to stay put, she did not bother questioning the man about it.

To her, it was even better if she did not need to attend the banquet at all!

Soon, however, she found out his intention for issuing such an order.

Pak!

The car door on her side was opened from the outside.

Following this, she saw the man and his assistant stand outside the car.

The assistant then bent at the waist to help her out of the car. He even placed his palm on the door frame to prevent her head from banging into it.

Meanwhile, the man, who was standing with his back straight outside the door, extended a hand toward her.

Seeing his well-defined palm be proffered to her, she fell into a slight trance as she stared at it.

“Come out.” He urged the woman to get out of the car when she just stared blankly at his hand.

At his prompting, she reached out her hand and placed it in his well-defined one.

His large palm encapsulated her delicate one the moment she placed hers in his.

The ice-cold touch cleared her mind.

She lifted a leg and placed it outside the car. Under the man’s guidance, she stepped out of the car.

She did not notice how elegant her movements were and how seductive she was in the eyes of others, especially men.

“Wow! Who is that?”

“Is she a star? She looks stunning!”

“I agree! Is she CEO Ji’s girlfriend?”

“It’s possible! I don’t remember CEO Ji ever bringing a plus one to this type of event!”

Pei Ge’s car exit instantly attracted attention of the receptionists, waiters, and waitresses at the hotel lobby, and a small ruckus started as they talked to one another about her.

“Let’s go.” Once she was completely out of the car, the man released her palm and gently placed his hand on her waist. He then lightly pulled her into his embrace, as though he were staking his claim on her.

Feeling slightly awkward at his intimate actions, she subconsciously fidgeted and tried to put some distance between them.

“Stop moving. Remember that you are now my wife.” The man could obviously guess the little woman’s thought.

He tightened his hand around her waist and gave her a warning look.

Her body stiffened at his warning, and she stopped fidgeting.

“I got it, Ziming.” She raised her head and flashed him a light smile.

She had almost forgotten that they had a relationship built around a contract. If it were not for that, this annoying fellow would not bring her along to this dinner banquet.

His expression softened when he saw the light smile on her face.

Unbeknown to the two, at the moment, they looked like a real couple that had a really intimate relationship in the eyes of others!

Tak, tak, tak!

As she was being supported by the man’s arms, she did not feel tired despite walking in high heels.

The two soon reached where the elevators were located in the hotel.

Ding! She followed the man into the elevator once the doors parted open.

The metallic doors were about to close when a person quickly squeezed in.

“CEO Ji, how coincidental. I really didn’t expect to find myself in the same elevator as you!” The man who had entered smiled at Ji Ziming.

This guy looked familiar to her but only at the level of having seen him before.

“Mhm,” Ji Ziming only hummed lightly. He appeared not to care about socializing with the man who had squeezed his way in on purpose.

The man clearly did not mind his unfriendly attitude and merely shifted his gaze on to her.

“This miss here, you seem quite familiar; I don’t think we have met each other before?”

She nudged her lips at his practiced pick-up line and answered politely, “I’m sorry; I’ve never seen you before.”

“Is that so? Then, it’s still not too late for us to get to know each other.” The man extended a palm to her with a gentle smile and said, “Hello, beautiful lady. I am the CEO of Hengyuan Group, Qiao Xiuqi. Pleased to meet you.”

The moment she heard his name, she figured out why she had thought that he looked familiar!

They had met once! It was when she had attended a banquet for the first time. They introduced themselves to each other!

The man’s gaze even made her uncomfortable back then!

Qiao Xiuqi noticed her stunned look and was perplexed. He moved to speak further, but Ji Ziming interrupted at this point.

Pak! With a resounding slap, which jolted her out of her recollection, Ji Ziming put a stop to the guy’s flirting.

Gathering her thoughts, the first thing she realized was that the silent Ji Ziming had actually slapped Qiao Xiuqi’s proffered hand away.

It was obvious from the crisp sound that Ji Ziming did not hold back his strength when he slapped the guy’s palm away.

She was utterly shocked by this. It was totally not something she imagined the annoying fellow would do!

Meanwhile, the guy whose hand was slapped also had the same look of disbelief as hers.

The guy apparently did not expect him to do something like that at all.

Ding! The elevator doors split open. Ji Ziming insouciantly retrieved a checkered grey-blue hankie from inside his suit pocket and wiped the hand he had used to slap Qiao Xiuqi’s hand away. He then threw this hankie on the floor as he dragged her out of the lift by the waist.

Only Qiao Xiuqi remained standing dazedly and looking silly inside the elevator thereafter.
