Ji Ziming hugged Pei Ge tightly as they walked into the CEO’s private elevator that was specially guarded in the mall. Only then did they walk out of the fragrant scent of the breakfast.
As they approached the private elevator, the two bodyguards standing at the entrance of the elevator spotted Ji Ziming walking over with Pei Ge in his arms. They quickly opened the car door and just as Ji Ziming and Pei Ge reached the entrance, the elevator doors opened.
Ji Ziming’s hand slid down her arm as he held Pei Ge’s hand tightly, afraid that he would lose her.
“Alright, there’s no one else.”
The elevator doors suddenly closed. Pei Ge tried to pull her hand out of his, but she realized that she could not do so and could only let him hold her hand tightly.
“I won’t let go. I’ll never let go of your hand.”
With that, he pressed her against the cold metal wall. Luckily, the jacket she was wearing was a little thick, so she did not feel the ‘cool’ metal wall immediately.
“Why are you leaning so close to me? Hurry up and leave.”
Pei Ge lowered her head as the familiar smell around her wafted to her nose.
“What’s wrong? Are you still afraid that I’ll do something to you?”
Ji Ziming suddenly had a thought. Looking at the little woman in front of him, his eyes turned slightly red and his lips curled into a devilish smile, revealing his aura.
“Why aren’t you saying anything? Tell me, are you afraid of what I’ll do to you?”
Ji Ziming’s voice was cold, yet there was a hint of enchantment in it. His arms were like a shackle around Pei Ge’s body. “Ge Ge, what are you afraid of?”
“What can I be afraid of? This is a public place. If you continue to act like this and others see you, then...”
Pei Ge was suddenly at a loss for words. This was the Ji family’s shopping mall and this was his personal elevator. There was no reason for others to spread the news when they saw it. As long as Ji Ziming was unwilling, he could get that person to scram anytime.
“Just what? What are you trying to say?”
Ji Ziming’s voice carried a hint of a smile. He did not expect his woman to be so considerate of him. Even though they had lived together for a long time, it was still as beautiful as when they first met.
Love was the best thing that could happen.
Pei Ge tried to push away the defensive line that Ji Ziming had erected on both sides of her body, but no matter how hard she tried, she could not push him away. Even when she squatted down, she could not escape from his embrace.
“Woman, I said, don’t try to slip away from me. I won’t let you leave me again.”
Ji Ziming’s lips curled up. This little woman is still so cute.
“Alright, alright. I won’t leave. I promise I won’t leave.”
Pei Ge’s pink lips pouted slightly. Seeing that Ji Ziming’s heart was itching, she could not help but want to kiss him lightly on her pink lips. There was no hint of lust, only a hint of love and doting.
The two of them boarded the elevator and headed straight to the store on the top floor. Before Ji Ziming and Pei Ge could get close, they could already hear the boss reprimanding the new intern.
“Why can’t you even handle such a small matter?”
“What’s the point of having you in the store?”
“If you ruin Mrs. Sun’s clothes, can you afford to compensate her?”
...
Pei Ge’s fingers curled up in Ji Ziming’s tightly held hand. Back then, when she was an intern, although she was part of Second Uncle’s family company, she still put in a lot of effort to do her work. However, for some reason, her work did not meet the expectations of her superiors.
“Don’t worry, I’m here.”
As if sensing Pei Ge’s slightest change in mood, the coldness around Ji Ziming intensified.
“Ziming, I...”
Pei Ge did not continue. It was no longer important.
“I’m here. You don’t have to worry about anything.”
Ji Ziming explained with a smile. He did not want his woman to live under the eyes of others forever. It was only because of him that there would not be such a Pei Ge. It was enough for her to stand behind him and be his little woman.
Ji Ziming held Pei Ge’s hand as they walked into the store. The people inside were half-kneeling on the ground as they packed up the new goods that had just arrived today. As they did not receive news that Mr Ji and his wife were coming to inspect the store, the staff were in a rush.
“CEO, Madam, good morning.”
Although she did not receive any news of inspection, when the store manager, Xu Huihui, saw Ji Ziming and Pei Ge standing at the door, she quickly stopped reprimanding the intern and showed an earnest look.
“Alright, you guys just started work, right?”
The corners of Ji Ziming’s lips curled up. The two salespeople beside him brought chairs for Ji Ziming and Pei Ge to sit down. However, Ji Ziming did not sit down and merely looked at Xu Huihui with a guilty conscience.
Something went wrong with the clothes he gave Pei Ge. Ji Ziming and Pei Ge heard him reprimanding the employees in the store, and even the intern who delivered the clothes to Pei Ge had a car accident... Recently, the fengshui in the store was not good and something kept happening.
“Who’s the manager?”
Ji Ziming coldly harrumphed as his cold aura slowly dissipated in the shop.
“I am, I am. CEO, what can I do for you?”
Xu Huihui quickly walked forward, her trembling appearance causing Pei Ge, who was standing beside Ji Ziming, to feel disdain. This kind of person only knew how to bully the weak and fear the strong, yet always acted as though she was the heaven.
However, it was precisely such a person that the boss especially liked.
“You’re the manager?”
Ji Ziming pretended to be unwilling to believe her. He looked at Xu Huihui up and down before asking with certainty, “Were you the one who lectured me earlier?”
“CEO, I was the one who sent it out. It’s a rule that new interns don’t understand. I got Mrs. Sun’s clothes from the Sun Corporation onto another dye. That’s why I...”
Xu Huihui told the truth because there were too many things bothering her over the past two days, and she had no time to digest them all.
“I see. Where is that intern?”
Ji Ziming nodded before pulling the chair closer and sitting down.
“CEO, it’s that girl beside you. She’s new and graduated from a famous university. However, she’s still a little clumsy. CEO, what are you doing?”
Xu Huihui mustered up her courage and boldly asked Ji Ziming what his motive was. However, Ji Ziming shot her a cold glance and she did not dare to say another word as she stood rooted to the ground.
