Provocative Fiery Wife: My Superior is a Affectionate Spitfire

“How does that work?”

Zhang Manhua, who had been washing the vegetables, halted and turned to look at her daughter while frowning. “Don’t tell me that she isn’t satisfied with being in the Ji Group?”

“She is not happy with the company, and the other employees are also unhappy with her. I heard my subordinates saying that she made a huge ruckus on her first day there, so it’s very likely that all the employees have some misgivings about her.”

Pei Ge was nonchalant as she continued cutting the potatoes.

She had not prepared a meal with her mother in a long time. The two children and Ji Ziming were in the living room. Just as they said, men like them oversaw protecting women like them. What she was touched by was not just this; it was also because Ji Chi said it himself.

Zhang Manhua continued washing the vegetables. The tension from before had disappeared, and she regained her usual calmness. Her gaze was cool as she spoke again. “Then, wouldn’t she be bursting with anger since you guys didn’t tell her that your plans to come here?”

“Maybe.”

Pei Ge felt a refreshing feeling yet also a tinge of worry when she thought of Qu Jingwan’s expression once she found out about it.

With her character, who knew what that lady would do?

Meanwhile, that lady in question was in her department’s pantry, talking to her grandmother over the phone. She told her everything that had happened recently, yet who knew that after listening to her, not only would Old Lady Qu refuse to think of some ideas, she even reprimanded her solemnly?

“Haven’t I taught you how to grasp a man’s heart? You should learn from Pei Ge and pretend to be kind. That way, you wouldn’t end up being left behind when they went away.”

The elderly woman’s angry voice came through the phone.

“But I’m now in the Ji Group; no one here can give me orders.”

“Are you a pig?!”

She felt very wronged and clueless about why she was being scolded. “Grandma, what’s wrong? Why are you scolding me?”

“Jingwan, if only you have half of the cunningness of Pei Ge.”

It was only then that she understood. Everyone went away, leaving her alone in the Ji Group. They were not letting her do as she pleased in the company because the people around her were all the couple’s eyes and ears, yet she was happy about it without knowing the truth. She was truly dumb to the extreme.

“Then, what should I do?”

She was no longer speaking in an aggrieved tone. Eyeing the company employees who walked by her, she cupped her mouth and the mouthpiece with her hand.

“What can you do now? You can only sit and wait. When the right time comes, see if you can get some useful information from those managers.”

“Okay, grandma; I understand, but why did they go overseas?”

She still did not understand. Although the housekeepers in the Ji family’s villa all told her that everyone had gone overseas for some personal reasons, she felt that there was no need for all of them to leave.

“I will have someone over there find out for me. Are you staying in the Ji family alone?”

Old Lady Qu also did not understand what kind of reason or issue could make the whole family of six leave the country. Ji Ziming’s private jet also did not seem to be flying back anytime soon. Could they only be going for a holiday? The scheming elderly lady totally did not believe such a superficial lie.

“Yes.”

Qu Jingwan nodded. As she was alone in the house, all the housekeepers had to obey her. She might be unable to do as she pleased in the company, but back home, she was the queen.

“How long will they be away?”

“They didn’t say. Auntie Ji called me today to say that it might take some time for them to come back.”

“Okay, then. I will settle some matters on my end and then stay with you there.”

Upon hearing that her maternal grandmother was coming to stay with her, Qu Jingwan was stunned that her red lips trembled. “G-Grandma, you want to stay with me here? Now?”

“I’m only coming over so that you won’t get bullied by the housekeepers. Those dogs who work are loyal to their masters. What if you get bullied?”

Old Lady Qu set aside the file in her hand. No matter where her granddaughter was, she had to keep track of her activities, including her situation in the Ji family.

“Grandma, don’t worry. Those people must obey my orders. I am, at the very least, Ji Ziming’s fiancée in name. If they dare to disrespect me, I will go curry favor with Auntie Ji. This method has worked many times, so you don’t need to worry.”

She suddenly chuckled. “Yes, I forgot about your personality.”

Her granddaughter asked, “What personality?”

“Meek toward the brutal and brutal toward the meek,” she spat, adding, “Still, you should not be afraid even if you meet an opponent like that b*tch.”

“Don’t worry. I have already thought of how to handle Pei Ge. When she comes back, I will make Ji Chi come to my side. Not to mention talking to her, I will make him refuse to look at her.”

“Okay. Since you have already decided, I won’t comment more on this. Still, you need to handle that b*tch properly. She is not easy to deal with.”

She could finally relax. As long as her granddaughter did not need her help now, she would not have to worry much about the latter being picked on by Pei Ge.

“Okay. Don’t worry. If she dares to do anything to me, I will have her pay it back tenfold, hundred-fold.”

“Not bad. You’re just like me.”

She finally saw a hint of her shadow in her granddaughter. A person who would not care about the price or sacrifice she would have to make, including her closest and most intimate person for her goals.

Pei Ge, who was making lunch with her mother in the US, naturally did not know that Qu Jingwan had come up with a way to deal with her and only her.

The dishes for lunch were all her sons’ favorites, and so they enjoyed eating them.

After lunch, she spoke to them. “Boys, your daddy and I have to go out for a while. Can you both stay here and accompany your grandma?”

“Mommy, where are you going?”

An An blinked his eyes. He looked at his mother and then at his father but did not find the answer to his question on their faces.

“We’re going to look for your Xiaoyu, your auntie. Do you remember her?”

She intended to go look for clues regarding her best friend’s disappearance this afternoon, and it would be inconvenient to bring the two kids along.

“Okay. Mommy, you can go with daddy.”
