Chapter 1593: It is fine as long as you are happy.
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
"If she gets bullied outside, I won't even know about it. I…"
She was unable to continue speaking. Her beautiful eyes were moist with tears, such that, with just a slight squint, they would start falling.
"Don't worry. If there's an issue, I will definitely help you locate her."
Ji Ziming's eyes darkened. Tang Xiaoyu was indeed rather capable. He had already searched the whole of the US but could only find out that she had bought a plane ticket to Malaysia yet ended up not boarding the plane. As for the rest, he himself did not know where she was or if she had bought another plane ticket.
"I believe in Xiaoyu. She must have her reason for wanting to take some time off to herself. We are best friends, so even if she is truly unable to survive outside or gets bullied by someone, I still have you to find this person and teach them a good lesson."
The woman looked up at him. Her glistening eyes were full of dependence on him. In a sweet voice, she said, "I believe in you, too. Let's go and reserve a table at a restaurant so that we can have a talk with Qitong and Bi Zheng tonight."
"Okay. It's fine as long as you are happy."
His gaze was gentle as he regarded the woman in his arms dotingly. "Which restaurant do you want to eat? I will make the reservations now."
"I'll leave it to you."
The woman smiled.
He nodded and fished out his phone to make a call. When he was done with it, he smiled at her. "Alright, it's done."
"Alright, thank you."
She, again, expressed her gratitude to him, to which the man responded by kissing her deeply.
Both soon arrived at a hotel. The man ordered his secretary to book the grandest room in a hotel of the Ji Group. The purpose was, of course, for his woman and his cousin to catch up with each other.
Pei Ge gave Qin Qitong a call and was informed that they were on their way. She could not help but look at the man excitedly at the thought of meeting her good friends. "Mr. Ji, do you feel bored?"
"No. I still have you accompanying me."
Ji Ziming had his head lowered to look at his handphone regarding the latest update He Yun had sent to him. When he and Pei Ge went for a holiday back then, a spy camera happened to capture the man who had shown up in Qu Jingwan's room. The queer thing was that the man's figure was very similar to the one they had saw at Joe's hospital.
He sat in the golden chair and cocked his head. Judging by the similarity of the two photos, he had reason to believe that the person behind the man was what had caused all the happenings.
"Then, why are you still looking at your phone?"
The woman pouted her pink lips on her exquisitely decorated face. Dressed in a light-orange Gucci cotton top and tightfitting black pants, her figure was all the more appealing.
"I am looking at some work-related documents."
Looking up, he pressed his thin lips together and turned to look at her with his deep eyes. His fair and large hand placed his phone on the table. The phone with an 'African Princess Sapphire' case looked resplendent under this room's lighting.
Pei Ge knew that this sapphire was not the gem that could bring misfortune to its wearer as claimed on the magazines. Conversely, Ji Ziming felt that this gem had brought him a lot of luck. Of course, he did not believe in fate and only believed in one thing: God sent this woman to his side for him to help her, protect her, and love her, and those were what he intended to do forever.
"Hey, when did you embed this gem into your phone cover?"
She noticed how brilliant the luster of the gem was on his phone.
"When I came here to find you."
pαndα`noνɐ1~сoМ His voice was cool but also tinged with warmth. He continued when he noticed her staring at the gem. "Why? Do you like it?"
"Of course, I like this. I've only seen this gem on magazines and TV before. I heard that a person bought it; I didn't expect it to be you. Why are you hiding this fact, though? You're the type to admit his action, aren't you?"
She was slightly perplexed. When she saw him again, she did not notice his newly changed phone wallpaper or that such an exquisite gem had been right under her nose all along.
"Because I was with you."
The man told her how he had bought the stone for her.
She liked it but unintentionally rejected it and did not even open his gift. Hence, he could only leave it embedded on his phone case. One reason he did so was it was pleasing to the eye and another reason was to let her know that he had never given up on her and missed her dearly.
In the five years she had been gone, his heart seemed to have departed too and he was living in the hollow cracks of time. No matter how many dreams he had or how many people he met, no one who could replace her in his heart ever appeared, not until she reappeared herself in front of him.
If this African Princess Sapphire could truly bring misfortune, he believed that the biggest misfortune it had brought him was to lose Pei Ge for five years.
In those years, a pair of lovers had lived through all sorts of sufferings. The fact that they could still end up together was true love.
He believed that this woman was his true love and the only one who could arouse his sexual urges.
Hearing him talk about the past, Pei Ge lowered her head while blushing. Her voice was laced with sorrow. "Ziming, sorry; back then, I didn't know…"
"It's fine. You are now my woman. Everything of mine is yours, including this gem. If you don't like it, I will just change it to another."
His heartfelt confession made her unable to retort and could only nod her head, vowing inside to first look at the present before deciding whether to cast it aside or not.
Still, every present gifted by the man was unique and exorbitant.
Just as the two were deeply engrossed in their talk of their unpleasant past, Qin Qitong opened the door and entered the room with Bi Zheng. Upon noticing the woman's blushing cheeks and the man's jubilant face, she could not help but be dazed.
Their arrival seemed to have been untimely.
"Guys, you're here!"
Pei Ge did not mind it, fortunately, as she immediately went over to welcome them.
