Provocative Fiery Wife: My Superior is a Affectionate Spitfire

“Mhm.” Pei Ge nodded as her eyes brimmed with tears. She looked at Ji Ziming through blurry vision and asked, “Are you able to check it?”

“It’ll be difficult, but I’ll try.”

This was a baseless suspicion, wherein the man had no inkling of the person’s looks, gender, and even attire. Still, he decided to have his people in this hospital look for the person his woman had supposedly seen.

The pair walked to the carpark, and he swiftly made a call once they were in the car. He gave instructions to the person on the other end, then drove off in the fastest speed before stopping at a roadside, which was several hundred meters away from the hospital.

“What’s wrong?”

The man had stopped the car so suddenly, and Pei Ge had no idea why he had done so.

Not long after, the man’s phone rang. He listened to it carefully while frowning. The woman knew that traces of that person must have been found.

After hanging up, the man turned to speak to her. “We’ve found the person. He’s a drug addict who’s been sneaking in the hospital to steal amidone.”

“A drug addict?”

Pei Ge felt relieved, but another voice inside her heart refused to believe it.

By right, people who would steal amidone were poor and could not curb their drug addiction, yet in both times she had seen that person, it felt more appropriate to say that the person was following them rather than stealing something from a hospital for the rich.

“Do you not believe it?”

According to his understanding of her, if she believed it, she would not raise any suspicions.

“I just feel that he’s not there to steal but to follow us, instead. Think about it; we saw him when we entered and left the hospital. It couldn’t be that we happened to see him both times when he went to steal drugs there? How could such a coincidence happen?”

She told him her doubts and knew that he would certainly continue the investigation.

“I’ll let them carry on with the interrogation. If he refuses to reveal his true motive, I won’t let him off.”

Ji Ziming’s eyes became chilly.

“No need. Since he’s using stealing amidone as an excuse, he won’t reveal his true intention of coming to the hospital no matter what. If we hand him over to the police, he’ll just be locked up at a drug rehabilitation center for a few months, whereas if he does reveal his true intentions, he won’t be so easy to deal with.”

“Are you asking me not to pursue the matter?”

The man probed as he gripped the steering wheel tightly. The viciousness in his eyes was like a dagger dipped in poison.

“We can cast a long line to catch the big fish.”

Her eyes sparkled. Her innocent smile made him catch on to her intention.

“I got it. You want me to let him go so that we can use him to locate that person who’s giving him orders.”

His eyes were filled with praises as he looked at the woman next to him. She was truly the most beautiful and sexiest woman on Earth to him.

“That’s what I mean; we just have to find that person behind him. The person won’t really mind the death of a pawn or may even order his death once he’s his value, so we shouldn’t go concentrate on him and just use him to locate the mastermind behind all these.”

He smiled all of a sudden. “Not bad; you think like me.”

“This has got nothing to do with you.”

Pei Ge rolled her eyes at the man. Deep down, she was touched by the way he protected her and became jealous with Joe back at the hospital.

“Say that again!”

The man’s eyes darkened, his hand creeping up to her thigh. The movement of his hand made it enjoyable yet terrifying for her. Thus, she hurriedly pushed the man away and chided, “What are you doing?! Quickly drive so we can get back home.”

She realized that the current Ji Ziming simply did whatever he liked with her regardless of what time it was or where they were.

“Aiya—fine, fine! I’m so smart because of you. Because you’ve taught me well, there’s me today.”

Pei Ge anxiously praised him for the sake of saving her life.

“Mhm.”

The deep voice sounded particularly pleasant to her ears.

“Hey, we—”

The ringtone interrupted their conversation; there was a call from Gu Zhengrong.

The woman took her phone and looked at the man beside her as she bit her lower lip. She then answered it.

“Pei Ge, are you in the US?”

Gu Zhengrong sounded anxious and excited over the phone.

It had been a long time since he last met her or had a conversation with her over coffee. He really missed her so much that, when Zhang Manhua let the cat out of the bag over the phone call with him, he started looking forward to meeting her.

“That’s right; I came to look for Xiaoyu’s whereabouts. If you don’t care about her, I care, and if you don’t want her, I do.”

Her voice sounded cold and aloof as she looked at the cars passing by.

“I didn’t say that I don’t care about her, nor did I say that I don’t want her.”

He could finally be at ease after hearing her voice.

“Listen well: Once I find my best friend, I won’t let her see you again because you aren’t worthy of her love.”

Pei Ge got so agitated that she could not help slapping the man with her blunt words. She wanted to let him know what it meant to lose Tang Xiaoyu for him to regret not treasuring her best friend.

“I-I…”

The man on the other end stammered. He knew that the woman was unlike this before. Sooner or later, she would marry the all-powerful Ji Ziming, yet he had always thought that he still stood a chance, and precisely because of this feeling, he had been pining for her as his one true love.

“What about you? What else do you think I can say to you? Also, if you don’t have news about my best friend, please don’t call me as there’s nothing for us to talk about.”
