Chapter 1236: What exactly is your relationship with her?!
“You did cling on to me last night and refused to let me leave. Look at my wrist, there are still red marks from your grip...”
As he spoke, Ji Ziming raised his wrist before Pei Ge’s eyes.
It was just as what he had said; there was indeed a red imprint on his wrist.
As she regarded the red marks, she began to mutter to herself.
Could it be that... I really dragged him to her bed?
“Wh-Who knows if you’re telling the truth?!”
She did not show any doubt despite her thoughts and raised her head to look at him.
“You don’t believe me, huh?”
Looking at the hint of doubt in her eyes, the man curled his lips with a smile.
He pulled her hand over and said with a serious expression, “You can feel it for yourself and you’ll know exactly if you left this mark.”
As he spoke, he wrapped her hand around his wrist and guided it to grip his gently
Seeing that the area of the marks was identical to her grip size, she had no choice but to admit that she had done it.
“B-But that doesn’t mean anything!”
She still did not want to admit that she had dragged him to her bed last night.
“Oh, it doesn’t matter; I wanted to sleep together with you, anyway.”
Looking at how she refused to look at him, Ji Ziming found it funny, and for some reason, this moment reminded him of... how their relationship used to be.
If only everything that had happened back then did not happen, then would their feelings still be like how they were before?
Would they have children now...
“You! You’re indeed a pervert!”
Hearing the man’s words, Pei Ge did not feel guilty anymore. She turned and glared at him.
“Get out! I want to change clothes!”
“It’s still early; are you not going back to sleep?”
He wrapped his arms around her lazily.
The man had never behaved this way.
In front of other people, he was always cold and distant.
Such lazy and flirtatious behavior was... extremely rare.
“No! Get out; get out!”
As she spoke, she shoved him away.
“Okay, okay, okay. I’ll get out.”
He snuck another kiss on her when she was not looking before loosening his grip on her.
She only relaxed when she saw him leave.
“Are you... okay? Why did you cling to that annoying fellow last night?” She chided herself before lowering her head glumly.
However, before she could recover from her glum, she heard the door being opened again.
“Pei Ge, what do you want for breakfast—”
Hearing his voice, she threw a pillow at the door to cover her embarrassment.
“I’m not eating!”
“Okay, then. I’ll just put something together.”
Ji Ziming closed the door again, his voice seemingly full of joy.
“Jerk!”
She pouted. Even though she was grumbling about him, she did not realize how happy she looked right now.
After lying in bed for a while, she changed her clothes.
She then headed downstairs. By the time she arrived downstairs, a certain efficient chef had already placed food on the table.
Looking at the delicious spread before her, she felt happy...
Time passed quickly in a carefree atmosphere.
On the third day that the two were holed up in the lodge together, someone finally came to disrupt their alone time.
“Son, what’s up with you? You’re not returning home, nor do you show concern for Jingwan, and who’s Pei Ge? Is she that woman? How did she become your girlfriend again?”
Ji Ziming knitted his brows tightly together when he saw his mother and Qu Jingwan appear at the bungalow.
“Mom...”
“What mom? What’s going on in your mind? You don’t even know to return home, spending your time with improper women!”
Madam Ji must have been rather upset to start putting him down the moment she entered the place.
His frown deepened at his mother’s censure.
“Auntie, don’t me mad; be mindful of your health. He’s probably busy with work, so...”
“Lass, don’t speak for this jerk. He’s getting from bad to worse! We must teach him a lesson. If not, he won’t know to treasure you!”
A sense of frustration rose in him as he regarded these two interlopers.
He was sick and tired of this woman and had had enough of his parents’ insistence on him marrying a girl whose family paralleled his.
“Mom...”
Just as he was about to say something, a second voice interrupted him.
“What’s wrong? What’s with the racket?”
The coy, female voice that came from upstairs attracted the attention of everyone downstairs.
Everyone looked upstairs.
They then saw Pei Ge wearing his pajamas, looking as if she had just woken up.
“Regina?!”
“Miss Regina?”
Both women were stunned when they saw her appear.
They looked at her in shock.
“Why are you here?!”
“Eh?!”
She looked at the two as if she were stunned as well.
“What is going on here?!”
