Chapter 1184: He should not have realized that she is Pei Ge.
It was a dark night.
The moon was round and bright.
After staying in the study for a while as he went through some documents, Ji Ziming recalled that his son had been wailing earlier.
A moment of consideration, and he decided to take a gander if his son had stopped crying.
On his way there, he did not hear the sound of wailing at all.
He heaved a sigh of relief, thinking that his mother had finally succeeded in pacifying his troublesome son.
In front of the little fella’s room, he paused for a moment before deciding to look inside.
Hence, he pushed open the door and walked into the bedroom.
The bedroom was dim with only the moon serving as light. He lightened his footsteps as he moved across the room toward his son’s bed.
Spotting the boy’s peaceful and sweet countenance, his face relaxed and the lines on his face softened.
Despite still being largely expressionless, his eyes were tinged with slight tenderness.
While he seemed to dislike the child and even disdain caring for him on the surface, he did care for his son deep down.
“Good night...”
He raised his hand to the child’s head and moved to leave after bidding him good night.
Suddenly, he heard a sound coming from the washroom.
Swash, swash, swash...
The sound of flowing water from the washroom made him frown.
He slowly moved toward it.
Just as he reached the door, the sound of flowing water stopped abruptly before he could chastise the person inside.
“Hm? I forgot to bring the bathrobe...”
Shortly after hearing the familiar female voice from within, the door opened without warning.
Click!
With a click, the tightly shut washroom door swung open from the inside.
“Ahhhh!”
The moment the door was opened, he spotted a snowy-white and curvy naked body.
The lighting was very dim, and the woman had a thin towel wrapped around her body, yet her distinct curves were still revealed in his eyes just like that.
The snowy-white skin and the woman’s scream somehow made him feel an unexplainable familiarity!
He actually realized that he was not unfamiliar with this beautiful body. Even if he could not see the woman’s face clearly, he still recognized this body before him...
“Pervert! Lecher!”
Pei Ge did not care about his reaction, though. Seeing that he was still staring at her body, she subconsciously covered her chest and tightly hugged her towel as she screamed.
When he heard this familiar way of cursing people, even if the voice was different, he still immediately thought of—
“Pei Ge!”
As he spoke, he did not care about anything else and tightly hugged the woman standing in front of him.
“You finally appeared again...”
He hugged her tightly, as though hugging a precious gem he had lost previously and finally found.
At the same time, she was stunned by his exclamation of her name. Tightly hugged in his embrace, she did not dare to move or say anything.
All she could think of was—
Ahh! I’m dead; I’m a goner! How did he figure out that I’m Pei Ge?!
That’s not right! Why did he recognize me?!
“You finally came back...”
He tightly hugged her as he sniffed the fresh and fragrant smell on her neck.
The two of them hugged each other tightly and silently. It was as though they were a couple who had been separated for too long and finally reunited at this point.
Slowly, the flustered woman regained her senses.
Noting the dim lighting and how Ji Ziming was behaving without even interrogating her, she felt that he... had mistaken her identity.
Hence, after sorting out her emotions and thinking of a lie, she calmly pushed him aside.
“Mr. Ji, please let go of me; I am not Pei Ge.”
However, she was unable to push him away.
In contrast, he merely tightened his hold on her.
“No, I’m not letting go; you are Pei Ge.”
He buried his head in her neck; his voice was sweet yet icy.
“...My apologies, but I don’t even know when I got a Chinese name like that.” She coldly snorted and struggled with greater strength.
Her struggling was for naught, though.
“Please wake up! I’m called Regina—not Pei Ge!”
Seeing that she could not struggle out of his embrace, she did not bother making pointless effort and just calmly spoke.
“...Regina?”
He paused when he heard this.
“Yes.” She spoke calmly and composedly.
It was as though she were truly not her.
“...”
After a brief silence, he took a deep breath and finally let go of her.
He raised his head to look at her face, which was tinged with redness against her snowy-white skin.
He narrowed his eyes when he spotted how calm her expression was.
“I’d like to ask for you to leave for a moment as I still need to put on my clothes.”
She lowered her head a little, feeling slightly awkward when his gaze, which seemed to be capable of seeing through everything, remained fixed on her.
“...Mhm.”
After a long time, he finally retracted his gaze and turned around with a light hum.
She was speechless when he merely turned around to have his back facing her.
“Er, that... Can you leave? My pajamas are in bed.”
One she succeeded in chasing him out, she let out a relieved sigh.
As she put on her clothes, she pondered on if he had recognized her.
Why... am I having this nagging feeling?
Clearly, he shouldn’t have recognized me for Pei Ge...
