Chapter 250: What opinions do you have about my girlfriend?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Ho, looks like there’s a good show coming.”
“True. I really didn’t expect Young Master Ji’s girlfriend to be Pei Shishi’s sister.”
“Pei Shishi’s sister? I’ve never heard of this. Pei family is not even of blue blood and is just a nouveau riche. I don’t think Young Master Ji’s girlfriend is someone of that identity.”
“Hur hur. We can put aside her identity, but didn’t you hear what that young master of the Zhou family said?”
“I heard it, of course. I really didn’t expect a scene where a sister would pry the other’s corner to happen in a nouveau riche family.”
“What?! Shouldn’t you be focusing on the fact that Young Master Ji’s girlfriend is a vain and greedy woman whose goal is to attract a rich husband?”
“That’s right! Is Young Master Ji for real? How is his taste this bad?”
Pei Ge’s face darkened at the crowd’s murmurings.
Meanwhile, Pei Shishi was wearing an aggrieved expression on her face, as though she had done Pei Ge injustice, but she was actually gloating inwardly.
Hmph! Since you didn’t make me feel comfortable, I won’t let you feel comfortable as well!
In any case, Ji family is not so simple that it will accept someone like Pei Ge to be a daughter-in-law! Once words get around of her being a vain and greedy woman, whose goal is to get herself a rich husband, I don’t believe Ji Ziming’s parents will have any good opinion about her!
“Zhuoyang, don’t say that about Ge Ge. She—” She was interrupted by Pei Ge at this point.
“Hur hur! I like you?” Pei Ge coldly smirked at Zhou Zhuoyang, who was standing beside Pei Shishi and was glaring at her furiously. “Don’t flatter yourself!”
He glared at her with fury in his eyes.
Pei Ge mirthlessly laughed at his look and continued mockingly, “Brother-in-law, who you like is your business and has nothing to do with me at all.”
After disappearing for three years without a word and returning with the identity of her cousin’s fiancé, Pei Ge totally gave up on him.
The longing and fondness she had had for him vanished once he became someone else’s fiancé.
I, Pei Ge, am not so cheap that I will continue liking a jerk that has no feelings for me and is even attached!
“Cousin, I don’t know your reason for saying all that to me, but I definitely did not say a single word of it to you.” She shifted her gaze on to the pale-faced Pei Shishi.
Unknowingly, the cousin who had such an important position in her heart changed without her noticing it…
“Ge Ge, I’m sorry… I…” Pei Shishi looked into her clear eyes with two palms clasped tightly together.
When Zhou Zhuoyang saw that his fiancée was being bullied by Pei Ge, he furiously glared at her. “Pei Ge, come at me if you have something to say. Do you feel that I have let you down? Are you under the impression that I abandoned you? You clearly abandoned me first—”
Before he could finish his words, Pei Shishi stopped him and softly pleaded, “Zhuoyang, please stop saying it anymore. It isn’t Ge Ge’s fault—”
“Shishi, don’t waste your kindness on such an impure woman!” Although he was talking to Pei Shishi, his eyes were on Pei Ge.
He wore a furious expression on his face, yet his eyes held awe in them.
“Zhuoyang, don’t say that about Ge Ge. She isn’t that kind of woman. She is just—” She was once more interrupted from finishing her words.
However, this time, Ji Ziming, who had been staying quiet all this while, was the one that interrupted her.
The man was clearly the most conspicuous among the four, yet, ever since Zhou Zhuoyang’s appearance, he had only been silently standing beside Pei Ge like a statue. Although his face was devoid of any expression, an unknown emotion was brewing in his eyes.
“Hur! The duo here; what opinions do you have about my girlfriend?” The moment his lips parted open, a wintry gust of wind seemed to blow past. It was so frosty that it caused Pei Shishi, who was so absorbed with her acting, and Zhou Zhuoyang to shiver in fear.
Although his intimidating aura was not directed at her, Pei Ge was still slightly affected by it.
However, what was affecting her was actually not his imposing aura but his words, instead.
Girl – Girl – Girl – Girlfriend?!
She was struck dumb by the unfathomable craziness Ji Ziming was currently displaying by saying such nonsense.
“Girl – Girlfriend?! That’s impossible!” Before the dumbfounded Pei Ge could react to his declaration, Pei Shishi freaked out and hysterically shouted this.
Her exclamation effectively jolted Pei Ge and Zhou Zhuoyang out of their dazedness.
“Miss Pei, why is it impossible for Ge Ge to be my girlfriend?” Ji Ziming’s lips curled up slightly as he gently placed his hand on Pei Ge’s shoulder and pulled her into his embrace.
“…” His words only served to make Pei Ge dizzier. Completely forgetting to rebuke him, she submissively leaned into his embrace.
Pei Shishi felt something sharp excruciatingly tear her heart open once she saw this scene.
How is this possible?! How can Ji Ziming fall in love with Pei Ge! Impossible! This is totally impossible!
Jealousy and hatred gnawed her insides and contorted her beautiful face into an ugly grimace. There was no semblance of the gentle, elegant, and pretty woman she was moments ago. Right now, she only looked terrifying.
Zhou Zhuoyang would definitely be frightened by Pei Shishi’s current look. Unfortunately, his attention was currently only on Pei Ge. With this being the case, how could he still remember to look at his fiancée?
Moreover, his expression was no better than Pei Shishi’s. Although he claimed to detest Pei Ge, his face was only filled with jealousy and anger; there was no trace of disdain on it.
Pei Ge did not notice the pair’s gazes, though, as her focus was currently only on Ji Ziming.
Her mind was filled with questions about Ji Ziming’s reason for making such an out-of-nowhere declaration. She did not believe that he liked her. She had directly heard him say that he did not care about her before, after all.
When she recalled that incident, she felt slightly desolate and heartbroken inside.
