r a large gift.”

Ji Ziming’s sharp and ruthless eyes, which were profound, shifted onto Qu Xiujie on the bed.

The old thing was clearly taking advantage of the time he was spacing out to get chummy with his wife and even requested her to accompany him in the hospital right under his nose.

How could he hold himself back? As a man, he could not accept having an old thing, who was older, less imposing, and poorer than he was, snatch away his woman, let alone the fact that he was Ji Ziming.

“Do you mean that if Old Lady Qu sends someone over tonight…”

Pei Ge continued asking, still feeling worried.

“Did you think that my bodyguards grew up eating carrots?”

He felt exasperated.
Did this woman still refuse to trust his abilities?

“It’s fine if this old thing does not know my capabilities, but don’t you?”

The other meaning of his words made Pei Ge’s lost expression turn into a shy blush.
Meanwhile, sitting on the bed, as a man himself, Qu Xiujie knew what the chap meant, too.

He lightly sighed inside, This rascal is still treating me as his rival in love, and one he doesn’t care two hoots about to boot.

“Let’s go home.
The children are still waiting for us at home.”

Ji Ziming hugged her by the shoulders.
His gaze on her was endearing.

“Okay.”

Pei Ge nodded, thinking that she had to go home, anyway.
Since this man already had his plan, how could she not trust him?

After bidding Qu Xiujie goodbye, the man headed back to his family’s villa with his woman.
The moment she stepped into the house, Auntie Zhang rushed to her.
“Madam, Miss Qin Qitong called.
I answered it for you because you weren’t home.”

“Get straight to the point.”

The man cocked an eyebrow as a storm brewed in his eyes.

Startled by his expression, Auntie Zhang stuttered even more.

“M-Madam… Miss Q-Qin Qitong s-said…”

“Auntie Zhang, don’t be nervous.
Come let’s continue elsewhere.
You have to tell me everything Qitong said.”

Pei Ge glanced at the man and, indeed, saw that his expression was not any better than when they were in Qu Xiujie’s ward.
With that, she pulled the auntie to a corner of the living room.

“Earlier, your friend couldn’t get through to you, so she called the house.
She said that she’s preparing to come home for her wedding in a few days’ time.”

Auntie Zhang smiled as she spoke about Qin Qitong’s wedding.
If not for her master’s glare just then, she would immediately tell this to her madam.

“She called me?”

Pei Ge revealed a look of disbelief.
She quickly opened her handbag and spotted six missed calls when she found her phone.
They were all from Qin Qitong.

“Aiya, I must’ve put it in silent mode because of the company meeting.
It’s my fault for being so careless that I forgot to undo this.
Thank you, Auntie Zhang.
I’ll call her back now.”

She lightly patted her head, thinking of how she had forgotten about such an important thing like her phone.
She was not afraid of missing Qin Qitong’s call.
She was more worried about Tang Xiaoyu.
