Chapter 2196: I won’t go over even if I’m killed.
“Who’s there?”
Feeling the pressure on her waist slowly disappear, she sat up and looked at him with widened eyes.”I only know that she’s back in the United States, but I don’t know how she’s doing there.”
“Mr. Li, the king of business in Huaxia Street.”
“Mr. Li?”
PEI GE’s eyes widened even more. She only knew that her best friend had returned to another country, but she had no idea that the person she was trying to curry favor with was Mr. Li, the mysterious business man who was rumored to be the only person who had ever seen him. From this, PEI GE seemed to be able to see her best friend’s future.
“Yes, it’s that Mr. Li. She didn’t mention it to you at all?”
The man’s eyes were gentle, and there were no lies in them.
“No. I didn’t hear her tell me anything about it. I thought she went overseas and was still fighting with Gu Zhengrong, but it seems like I was overthinking things. She didn’t look for him, so he should be the one looking for her.”
PEI GE immediately understood. It was not that Tang Xiaoyu was unwilling to return to the country, but that someone was willing to help her overseas. Since that was the case, her concern did not seem to be that important anymore.
“Ge Ge, I think I’ll have to find this Mr. Li when I have the time.”
He stood up and walked to the sofa to pour two cups of tea. Turning around, he passed her a cup and continued,”this Mr. Li is rumored to be a very mysterious person. Even I have only seen him a few times, yet Tang Xiaoyu is able to stay by his side. I’m very curious as to what kind of magic or charm she has to be able to keep this old man under her.”
“Perhaps it’s not because of Xiao Yu’s charm, but because of the chemistry between them. Wasn’t Mr. Li alone? But you seem to have forgotten that she has a daughter. If we calculate based on this world, Mr. Li probably knew her at that time when she returned to the United States. Otherwise, why would she be alone in the United States and not let him contact her?”
She thought about it carefully and found that this was indeed the reason.
“That makes sense. Otherwise, I really can’t think of any other reason for Mr. Li and Tang Xiaoyu to be related.”
He sipped his tea and continued,”Ge Ge, why don’t we make a trip to United States to relax after mom and the Earl’s wedding?”
“Okay, I agree. I haven’t visited Xiao Yu in a long time. I wonder how she’s doing in America. I’m quite curious if she’s still doing as well as she did in Mr. Li’s company.”
PEI GE’s eyes glimmered. As long as it concerned Tang Xiaoyu, she always hoped that this woman could do her best and reach a height that no one else could compare to.
“Don’t worry. If she stays by Mr. Li’s side, she’ll naturally have all the connections and resources. On the other hand, you haven’t been to the United States for so long. Don’t you feel surprised? the businesses you left in the U.S. Have always been taken care of by someone, and your people have always been there. If you suddenly return to the company one day, will you be surprised?”
The man’s lips were curled into a smile as the temperature around him slowly rose. After returning from United States for so many years, it seemed to be his greatest honor for her to choose to stay by his side.
“What accident can there be? I just feel that if I really go back, they might still miss me.”
The smile on her face deepened at the thought of her returning to her company in United States she did not care about what others thought of her, nor did she care if she stayed by his side for the money in the eyes of women. All she cared about was her heart and the people she loved.
“Alright, I’ll go back with you.”
Ji Ziming put down his teacup, loosened his tie, and unbuttoned his shirt, exposing his bare chest to her. At this moment, he was not the CEO of the Ji group, nor was he the cold and aloof Ji Ziming that everyone was afraid of. Instead, he was her husband.
“Ge Ge, come here.”
The man stood by the bed and bent his index finger slightly. He looked at her with infinite charm as he continued,”Ge Ge, come here.”
She looked at him warily and shook her head when she saw the look of enjoyment on his face.”I’d be a fool if I were to go over. I don’t want to go over, and don’t ask me to go over, either.”
“Are you really not planning to come over?”
His voice became even more alluring, and his eyes became gentler.
“I’m not going over, I won’t go over even if I’m beaten to death. ”
She shrank to the head of the bed, which was only one bed away from the man.
“If I say I’m not going, then I’m not going. If you call me over again, I’m going to kick you out of my room, you …”
Without waiting for her to finish, he pulled up the blanket, and she walked toward him. He happened to hold her hand and gave her a triumphant smile.”I told you that you’ll come, so you’d better not resist. It’s useless to resist, so why don’t you just listen to me? isn’t that good?”
“Oh …”
She could not say another word as his lips blocked her from speaking.
Once the blanket was covered, the two of them were buried in the darkness. PEI GE, who was initially afraid of the darkness, was now filled with joy and spent the night in surprise.
Tang Xiaoyu, on the other hand, had nearly lost sleep the entire night looking at the proposal on her computer. Still, she could not find any clues. Just as she was in a terrible fix, her phone beeped with a text message notification. It was a headline about the misleading entertainment circle.
Tang Xiaoyu’s eyes darted around for a moment before she lowered her head to do her own thing. The big boss of the Chinese street, Mr. Li, had a mistress. Tang Xiaoyu’s body trembled in anger as she read the news.
Although he was mentally prepared to not be acknowledged by the outside world, at first glance, he still remembered it and didn’t know what to do.
“Miss, master would like to see you in the study.”
By the time Tang Xiaoyu was done reading the headline, the servant knocked on the door and softly said,”
Tang Xiaoyu calmed herself down and replied calmly,”alright, I understand. I’ll be there in a moment.”
“Alright,” he said.
The servant turned around and left the room upon hearing her reply.
