Chapter 1002 - I want to get to the bottom of this!
In Pei Shishi’s house, she was so calm and fearless, as though none of her cousin’s words could harm her.
However…
Once she exited the villa and got in a taxi, her entire body slumped down.
Her calm expression was instantly replaced by panic and sorrow.
Her nonchalance instantly vanished.
She was like a soldier who had been defeated with no hope of victory.
“Miss, miss. Are you all right?”
Make a call… to Ji Ziming.
Ask everything clearly. Isn’t it better that way?
As she thought of this, she fished out the phone from her bag.
She did not even need to open her contact list and just merely pressed the number ‘1’ as the man was on her speed dial.
Unfortunately, while the man was astute on answering her call at the first ring in the past, the phone rang for a long time this instant before it was picked up by him.
“Hello, Pei Ge.”
His low voice came through the moment the line connected.
Inexplicably, she felt more at ease upon hearing his hoarse voice.
“Ziming… I miss you so much…”
The moment she heard his voice, the grievance that she felt burst out at once.
Her nose tingled as tears swam in her eyes and threatened to fall out at any moment.
“…I miss you, too.” His gentle voice was like a cello drawing out a tender, love concerto, causing her heart to melt.
In that moment, whatever suspicions, affair, pregnancy, and the ilk were all cast at the back of her mind!
“When are you coming back? You clearly said that you’ll be back in the afternoon. You lied to me again.” She sniffed a she grumbled.
“I’m sorry. There’s… something urgent at the office again.”
When she heard him mention the company again, she suddenly recalled her cousin’s words.
‘He’s lying to you by claiming that there are matters to attend at the company. He’s currently with that woman at the hospital.’
She clenched her fists at this recollection.
Sucking in a deep breath, she tried to match and confirm everything her cousin had said earlier with the man.
Whether this was true or false, she wanted to make sure.
“Ziming, at Pei Shishi’s house today—”
Alas, before she could finish speaking, she heard a woman’s voice from the other end.
She even found this voice to be a little familiar.
“Ziming—” Who’s that woman who spoke?
