Chapter 1170: Who are you exactly...
Ji Ziming had no choice but to let a certain person in.
He did so to avoid the situation where his best friend would shout from outside for the whole night.
“From our many years of friendship, tell me what do you feel about my goddess.”
The moment Mu Heng entered his room, he cut to the chase and asked the question that had been bothering him.
“...” What feeling?
He furrowed his brows slightly.
He himself could not name his feelings for that woman.
He only knew that she gave him a sense of familiarity.
It was the exact same feeling Pei Ge gave him.
“Tell me honestly: Do you like Regina, too?”
Mu Heng stared straight at his best friend, trying to figure out the answer from the latter’s face.
To his disappointment, the man remained expressionless and indifferent.
“...Alright, alright; let me ask you in another way.”
Seeing that the other was being uncooperative, he changed his method of questioning.
“How exactly do you feel toward her?”
“...” The man kept his silence for a bit before giving him a reply calmly. “Don’t you feel that she’s familiar?”
“Familiar?”
His forehead twitched slightly as he tried to think of the past and every interaction he had with Pei Ge.
“Seems like it; she’s indeed slightly familiar to me.”
In fact, from their very first meeting, he found the woman to be quite familiar.
However, he did not notice it then because he chalked up the feeling to beautiful women’s charisma and looks being all similar.
In conclusion... he did find her to be familiar.
Nevertheless, since this was the second time his best friend had brought up that matter, he began taking notice of it.
“Indeed, you think so, too...”
After receiving his confirmation, Ji Ziming pursed his lips.
That woman, who is she, and why can she affect my feelings so easily...
There was still no woman who could pull at his heartstrings except for Pei Ge...
The moment he thought of this, the man seemed to have straightened out his thoughts as a surprised look appeared on his expressionless face.
Could she be...
“What’s wrong? Why are you looking like this?”
Seeing the surprise on his friend’s face intensifying, Mu Heng expressed his bafflement.
The other returned to his senses at his question.
“How much do you know about that woman?’
He shot him a glance; those dark, cold eyes of his seemed to be filled with agitation.
“I don’t know much about her...”
After all, he did not go to New York much, so he knew little about that woman who had appeared in the capital suddenly.
“Then, tell me what you know about her,” said his friend icily.
Despite being thrown into confusion and not knowing why he was asking this, he still replied truthfully. “I roughly know the same thing as you, but I know something more, and that is, she has a husband and two children.”
At that, Ji Ziming’s brows furrowed further as unhappiness filled his face.
“Is she really... married?”
“Yes! I’ve even seen the photo of her family! Her husband has good looks and, by the looks of it, is clearly not ordinary. He isn’t even a far cry from you.”
His friend nodded his head, feeling glum. “If only her husband were more ordinary, I’d still have a chance with her. Unfortunately, her husband has good looks and her family seems pretty—”
He was interrupted before he could finish speaking.
“Enough! You don’t have to continue,” said his childhood friend with an ugly expression.
“Oh.”
Seeing his bitter expression, which was as black as the bottom of a pot, he pouted and understood at once why his best friend was feeling this way.
After all, he had been through the same thing as well.
“How did you... meet her?”
“Oh. We...” He excitedly narrated the first time he had met her.
After hearing that, Ji Ziming’s eyes brightened up and a plan was conceived in his heart.
“Alright. You may leave.”
“Huh?”
Once he dismissed his friend, he thought about the meeting in the toy store that the other had mentioned.
Lowering his eyelids, his long eyelashes covered the complicated feeling in his eyes.
He fished out his phone and dialed his assistant’s number immediately.
“Send someone to New York and find out everything about a woman called Regina. Yes. Her address there is...”
After arranging all that, he exhaled deeply and lay in bed.
“Who are you exactly...”
Are you Pei Ge...
...
“Ah!”
Over in the other bedroom, Pei Ge was woken up by something.
“Mommy... mommy...”
What disturbed her sleep was not a nightmare but a child’s whimper from next to her.
She opened her eyes and looked at the child next to her, only to find him frowning with his face very pale. It was as though he was having a bad dream.
“Baby? Baby...”
Seeing the beads of perspiration on his forehead, she gently called out to him, but the response that she got was...
“Mommy, mommy, it’s my fault! It’s my fault... Mommy, don’t abandon me... I’ll be obedient... I’ll be obedient...”
Bang!
Listening to the child’s mumbling, she felt that her head was close to exploding.
The person who had caused the child to fall from the windowsill turned out to be Qiao Jingyun!
Furthermore, it turned out that this child had fallen from there not by accident but because that woman had tried... killing him!
