Chapter 292: Which part of you do you think is worthy of my like?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
How did Ji Ziming know? It was late in the night. Even if he had good vision, he should not notice that she had cried with her mother, unless he had seen them do so or had been watching them closely.
Had he been watching them all along?
No way…
Pei Ge refused to believe that, but his eyes were truly all over her since she got into the car.
At a glance, he could see that her eyes were slightly red and swollen.
It was just that Zhang Manhua had sat between them so he did not get a chance to inquire about it.
“Why did you cry?” His pair of smoldering eyes seemed to peer deep in her soul.
“It has got nothing to do with you.” She nervously shuffled her feet under his piercing stare.
“Because of Pei Zhenghui?” He ignored her words and remarked, “You must’ve been wronged, so your mother cried, too.”
She could feel her nose wrinkling over his calm analysis.
“It’s none of your business! Why do I have to tell you about it?!” She angrily raised her head and stared hard at the man.
“…” He moved his lips slightly. “I just don’t like to see you like this.”
He did not like it. If this dumb woman should cry, it could only be because of him and not because of random people!
“You don’t like it? What does your dislike have to do with me?! Who am I to you?!” She nearly fell apart after she heard his words.
“…” He frowned at her anger.
“You’ve got a lot to ask me, right?! Since you insist on knowing, I will tell you! I have questions for you, too!”
All her bottled-up emotions broke loose under his interrogation.
“Yes, I was wronged at my second uncle’s house! But do you know why? It’s because of you, Ji Ziming!”
Hearing her blame him, he felt an inexplicable pain and some uneasiness.
“If you want to get rid of some rotten peach blossoms, why use me as your shield?! If you don’t like my cousin, why don’t you tell her directly?! That way, my relationship with cousin won’t be affected by any misunderstanding, as well as my second uncle’s opinion of me!”
Unabated tears rolled down her cheeks like beads of pearl as she spoke. One could tell that she was grievously hurt.
Once she started crying, he reached out and gently wiped away her tears.
“I am not using you to get—”
Pak! Before he could finish his words, she mercilessly pushed away his hand.
“Don’t pretend to be a good Samaritan!” She stared at him angrily. Though she appeared angry, she looked pitiful instead of threatening with her red eyes and nose.
“Let me ask you about the project my second uncle’s company has been working on for months; did you deliberately take it away?” She carelessly wiped away the tears on her cheeks.
She actually wanted to ask him this the moment she saw him.
Her second uncle misunderstood her big time.
Still, he would not make a big fuss if Pei Family Real Estate’s last project did not really get snatched away from them. Ji Ziming was probably being mischievous again.
Her second uncle would not say something like that otherwise.
Ji Ziming did not answer her question and, instead, looked at his stinging hand, which had just been slapped away.
“Ji Ziming, you are guilty!” she declared while looking at him furiously.
“Heh,” he sneered after a long silence.
He put down his hand and looked coldly at her. Unlike the soft look he had just then, his eyes were now full of anger.
This dumb woman did not even know or care that he did it for her! He helped her, yet he got blamed in return!
Could this dumb woman have some sense at all?!
“Pei Ge, you seem to have forgotten that I am your boss and not your friend,” he said with a tinge of anger.
“…” She was stunned by his sudden change.
“Besides, what rights do you have to ask me that? Don’t you know that the world is like a battlefield? What makes you think that only Pei Zhenghui deserves that project? He worked hard for a few months but so did others,” he told her coldly and then smirked. “Your second uncle is merely a jumping clown to me; I don’t see the merit in dealing with him personally.”
“You…” She bit her lower lip, her eyes full of anger.
“Pei Ge, have you forgotten? Chenguang is also a real estate company like your second uncle’s company. Your words are ridiculous.” He looked at her fiery eyes and then asked with sarcasm, “Don’t tell me that you think I did it for you?”
She pursed her lips and tightly clenched her fists.
“Which part of you do you think is worthy of my like?” he asked with vitriol.
She treated him like this just for an insincere relative?! Was he that insignificant and unimportant to her?!
This damn foolish woman!
“I know now, CEO Ji.” Pei Ge released her balled-up fists and looked at the man with stillness in her eyes.
The look in her eyes made him very uncomfortable, and he began to feel that his fist had hit cotton.
“Sorry, I was too sensitive. It won’t happen again.” She bowed slightly after saying this.
“Thank you, CEO Ji, for sending me and my mom home. It is late now; I’d better go up.”
Without a backward glance, she turned and headed toward her building block.
“Pei Ge!” He felt miserable and called out to her leaving figure.
She did not stop and, instead, walked swiftly toward the dark stairwell.
“Damn it!” he muttered through gritted teeth, his heart feeling as if he had done something wrong.
However, for his face’s sake, he did not stop the woman who had abandoned him mercilessly…
