Pei Ge automatically ignored the gazes of the surrounding crowd.

She originally thought that the people’s stares would make her lose her appetite, but upon tasting this banquet’s cuisines, she instantly forgot about those around her.

Her mind was only filled with: This is so delicious! That is delicious, too! Everything is so tasty! Eat, eat, eat, eat!

How could she still think of anything else when her starving flat stomach finally encountered such exquisite and utterly delicious food cooked by a five-star chef?

She only had food in her mind right now.

“Is what you are eating that delicious?” Ji Ziming’s mouth curled upward as he watched her happily eat.

“Mhm! Absolutely delicious! You try it, too!” Saying this, she scooped out a spoonful of the delectable dessert and sent it hovering before his mouth.

She had totally forgotten about Qin Qitong’s previous warning about her cousin not liking anything sweet.

He slightly pursed his lips as he eyed the spoonful of very sweet-looking dessert before him.

However, when met with her starry eyes that were full of anticipation, he found himself opening his mouth.

She immediately shoved the spoon into his mouth.

The extremely sweet-tasting dessert instantly exploded in his mouth, and he swallowed it with great difficulty.

“How is it? Isn’t it absolutely delicious?” she asked with a wide grin.

He watched her scoop another spoonful after asking that. Just as he was fearfully thinking that she would give him another mouthful of dessert, she put the spoon into her mouth, instead.

He was immediately struck dumb by this. He observed her blissful state as she savored the dessert, and a light smile uncontrollably crept into his eyes.

That’s the spoon I just ate from, yet this dumb woman didn’t mind eating from it, too…

He suddenly thought that the hard-to-swallow dessert did not actually taste too bad.

Swallowing all the dessert in his mouth, he then stared lovingly at her. He seemed to have been influenced by the dessert he just ate as he felt sweetness permeating every fiber of his being.

“It’s really delicious! Do you want some more?” She directed her eyes, which were narrowed into slits from smiling too much, at the man and asked.

Although she was very reluctant to attend this g*ddamn banquet with him at first, she now felt that coming here was actually not too bad!

I can eat all of this amazingly delicious food! I feel so blessed!

“Nope, you go ahead and enjoy it,” he gently replied as he looked into her twinkling eyes.

All her focus was unfortunately on the delicious food before her, so she failed to notice his unusual behavior.

She, who was already absorbed in the plate of food he had given her, became even more so after he rejected her offer.

His attention, meanwhile, was fully on the woman, who was currently stuffing her mouth with food and was looking very much like a hamster the way her face bulged.

Seeing her devour the plateful of food, he did not think in the slightest that she was a glutton.

Rather, his heart ached for her as he assumed that she had been starved silly by Du Wen this afternoon.

Thus, his resolve to punish Du Wen for enforcing his will on her after the banquet ended became firmer.

On their side, one of the pair was happily devouring her food while the other was staring at her in a trance. On another side, Pei Shishi, who was standing not too far away from the pair, felt something pricking her eyes as she watched their intimate actions.

She gnashed her teeth, feeling as if heaps of fire were crackling inside her.

If it were not for her self-control being better than the average person, she would already rush toward the pair and slap the shameless woman many times.

“Who is that woman?” Suppressing her anger, she softly asked the woman beside her.

“I’m not sure. She must be from an affluent family that recently returned from studying overseas!”

Hearing this, she became even more displeased. I also returned from studying overseas, so why did he choose that woman without sparing me a glance?!

“What does she look like, then? Is she very pretty? She looks pretty average from the back.” Since the back of Ji Ziming’s date was what was facing her this whole time, Pei Shishi did not realize that the woman she had been calling ‘shameless’ was actually her cousin, Pei Ge.

“Are your eyes working fine? That is called average?” The woman gave Pei Shishi a mocking glance. Noticing her jealousy, the woman sarcastically added, “Young Master Ji’s girlfriend is gorgeous and her figure is really good, too. Young Master Ji’s taste is indeed different from the average people.”

Pei Shishi’s face blanched at that.

Who exactly is that woman?!

At this moment, as though god had heard her insane question, Pei Ge moved to look over her shoulder, but…

“What are you doing?” She was in the middle of enjoying her food when he suddenly nudged her. She looked at him with puzzlement.

“You have something on the corner of your lips.” He picked up a napkin from the side.

“Is that so? I can do it myself.” With that, she moved to receive the napkin from him.

He did not let her get the napkin, though. With fluid and gentle movements, he reached out his hand and helped wipe that something from her mouth.

She was stunned speechless by his action.

Her dark irises, which grew bigger, stared unblinkingly at the man. It was then that she took note of the gentleness in his eyes.

Pound, pound! Her heart started thumping fast as she looked at the overflowing gentleness in his eyes that were usually cold.

This – This annoying fellow… Why is he so weird today? Why – Why is he doing this for me…

Unable to meet such a gentle pair of eyes head-on, she reflexively lowered her head abashedly.

His mouth curled up when she did that. He then slowly retracted his hand.

“Alright, it’s clean.”

“Oh… You—” Just as she moved to speak, she heard a sharp voice shriek her name.

“Pei Ge?!”
