Chapter 499 - If that annoying fellow finds out that she likes him…
The moon shone in through the large windows in the corridor, but because of the dark clouds, its light was rather faint.
Under this faint moonlight, Pei Ge was pinned against the wall by Ji Ziming’s large frame.
He lowered his head and gazed fixedly at her.
“Why are you trying to run away?” His clear yet low voice sounded dangerous and sexy in the darkness surrounding them.
“I-I’m not. I only want to go back to sleep.” She gulped. Entranced by the man’s charms, Pei Ge actually forgot about her current predicament.
