Chapter 177 - Discovering Pei Shishi's True Colors
Thinking of Bi Zheng liking her, Pei Ge did not know what to do or what to say and she felt awkward.
“Alright, I already did what I should. The rest is up to you. Wish you all the best.”
Bi Zheng did not linger to see her reaction and quickly turned to leave.
“CEO Ji.”
However, with this turn, he came face to face with Ji Ziming, who was standing nearby and looking in their direction rather coldly.
He gave the man a brief nod in greeting before calmly exiting the CEO Secretariat.
This left Pei Ge and Ji Ziming alone in the CEO Secretariat.
Pei Shishi would always think of her whenever she had something good. She would even use her allowance to buy her all sorts of junk foods.
Her mother had even joked that she was very well-fed by Pei Shishi when she saw her gain some weight.
“…” Pei Ge was stunned by this thought. Thinking about it now, she only managed to have so much cake and then developed this sweet tooth because of Pei Shishi.
Her family had no money, so even if she wanted to eat something sweet, she could not afford it.
However, her second uncle made a fortune after her father had passed away and Pei Shishi’s allowance became limitless.
Pei Shishi mostly spent it on purchasing cake from a shop near the school for Pei Ge.
At that time, she did not think too much about it and only thought that her cousin loved her so much.
However, recalling those times, she suddenly felt lucky that her teeth had not decayed or that she had not fallen sick from eating too much sugar at such a tender age; she felt fortunate that the only negative result of ingesting excessive sugar was that she had put on weight.
Pei Ge’s fists tightened.
Once the seed of doubt was planted in her mind, she began to think further. Perhaps, one could say that her mind had finally awoken.
Tang Xiaoyu had previously said that Pei Shishi was a hypocrite, but she had never believed her. Now, even if she did not want to believe it, she had to.
