Chapter 387 - CEO Ji, you want to marry me? You must be joking.
“Why aren’t you saying anything?”
Ji Ziming’s low and grave voice startled Pei Ge into stopping her eyes from roving.
She lifted her eyes to him and found that his focus had left the files on his desk and was now on her. This realization caused her heart to thump faster.
“B-Because you are busy,” she stammered nervously.
Holding her gaze with his cold eyes, he put his fountain pen down and said, “So if I were to continue with my work, you would stand there like a fool and not talk to me?”
“Er… Of course, not.” She felt helpless inside upon noting his seemingly angry countenance. She did not know how she had managed to step on this man’s toes this time.
“Mhm,” he hummed in agreement as he affixed her with his frigid eyes.
She had clearly just asked this annoying person for his help into placing her mother on top of the priority list to undergo surgery, so why would the subject switch to her life’s biggest moment?
“We’ll just be married on paper; I’ll take you as my wife and you’ll take me as your husband,” he answered plainly, making it sound so simple.
“Huh?” She felt a headache coming on at his answer. No matter how hard she thought of this, she still could not figure out what was going on in this annoying person’s mind.
“CEO Ji, you’re not running a fever, right? Is your mind sober?” She blinked and looked at him cautiously.
He did not seem sick at all and, in fact, looked so normal, but why was abnormal words keep coming out of his mouth—
“Shut it! I’m very much sober!” He frowned at her indignantly.
She pursed her lips and was silent for a moment before tentatively asking.
“CEO Ji, do you like me, then?”
