“Ge Ge! I really envy you a lot! You guys have only known each other for such a short time, and you are already going to meet his parents! Looks like what you guys have is true love! Tell me honestly; when are you guys planning to get married?”

He applied a blusher on her cheeks as he continued teasing her amorously.

Pei Ge was truly taken aback by him asking this.

“Lily, what are you saying?”

She blinked at him. She really did not know why this stylist would suddenly bring this topic up.

She got the feeling that, perhaps, this was... done on purpose?

It felt that he was saying this for someone to hear.

“Aiya! What is our relationship? Don’t be shy! Quickly tell me your progress with Mr. Ji!”

The stylist winked at her. When he said that last line, he even increased his voice’s volume.

“Ah?” What does he want me to say?

While he seemed to be the gossipy type—on second thought, he was—she had been sitting here all this while, but he had not once probed about this so blatantly.

Unbeknown to her, someone at the doorway was exerting much effort not to mock or belittle her.

“Hoo!”

Qiao Jingyun exhaled heavily to rein in her emotions and tried not to think about the things the stylist had just said to Pei Ge.

She also did not want to think about...

... How this lowly woman would have a meal with Ji Ziming’s parents to discuss their engagement.

Qiao Jingyun, don’t be rash! You can’t be rash!

If you rush over now and fight with her, you’ll lose the first-move advantage.

If you don’t calm down, you’ll only end up pushing Ji Ziming more to that woman who popped out of nowhere!

You can only rein in your emotions! Don’t think about anything and just get rid of her!

As for the engagement...

Her mind slowly settled as she narrowed her eyes and smirked inside.

How can it be so fast? Hur hur.

Based on what I learned and my understanding of Ji Ziming’s father, it’s impossible for her to get the Ji patriarch’s approval in such a short time.

Still, despite persuading herself that she must calm down, she still could not let it pass easily.

Ever since that kidnapping incident over a decade ago, she had never felt this much anger and stuffiness inside for anyone.

Hence, she coldly smirked and then turned to look at Pei Ge and Lily.

“Hur hur! How coincidental.” She gave an elegant smile to the two.

Lily frowned a little upon noting that, although he had said so much, this woman still did not leave and could even calmly talk to them.

A conjecture slowly formed in his mind. She either likes Mr. Ji a lot or is an extremely conniving woman who has hidden her thoughts too well.

“What coincidental?” This lady’s smile made Pei Ge uncomfortable.

For some reason, she got a strange feeling from this lady.

Clearly, this was her first time meeting this lady, yet she felt as if she had seen her somewhere before. She inexplicably felt... familiar to her.

“Could the Mr. Ji you guys are talking be Ji Group’s Ji Ziming?”

The lady smiled at her.

“...” She could not help but frown when Qiao Jingyun mentioned the man’s name.

Unknown if she was mistaken, but she saw this lady’s gaze turn soft the moment she said the man’s name.

“That’s right! This miss, do you also know our Ge Ge’s fiancé?”

While she kept her mum, the stylist decided to speak.

“Hur hur, I know him. Of course, I know him. The capital might be big, but the circle is only this small. How can I not know the Ji Group’s famous heir?”

Her smile was very graceful and casual, but her voice was filled with superiority.

He could not help but roll his eyes, inwardly despising this lady.

Right now, he was very certain that she liked Ji Ziming!

“Why don’t I know that Mr. Ji has a fiancée? Also, it seems that the Ji family hasn’t announced anything about them having a new madam soon.”

She lightly pointed out. Having been agitated by the stylist, she lost some of her cool.

Still...

Who does he think I, Qiao Jingyun, am?!

Even Ji Ziming’s father nearly lost to me back then!

In the end, he could only send me overseas, forking out money and effort to ensure that I had a comfortable life overseas and even going as far as to treat my family well.

This person before me is just a woman, and she can’t even compare to me; she’s way too far from my league to compete with me.

Noting her smug look, as if she were a snow lotus from the legends, Lily actually got filled with disdain.

“Miss, I’m a very straightforward person, so I don’t want to say this, but what is your relationship with the Ji family? Are you perhaps the prime minister’s daughter? Don’t tell me that you can know whatever happens in the Ji family?”

Who the hell is this woman? How dare she say all that in front of us!

“Miss, judging from your sea-turtle getup, you must’ve just returned from overseas. Tsk, tsk, tsk!”

Qiao Jingyun narrowed her eyes a little as she swept her gaze onto him.

“As far as I know, Mr. Ji has a very beautiful girlfriend, yet no matter how I look, this miss here doesn’t seem to fit the bill. At most, she can be called ‘pleasant-looking’.”

At this, he only calmly replied, “Aiyo, miss. Your news is very outdated and inaccurate to boot! Whether our Mr. Ji has a girlfriend in the past, his current girlfriend-cum-fiancée is only our Ge Ge here.”
