There was usually only one wall between truth and fallacy. In this chaotic world, only the strong set the rules, but it did not mean that they could not be broken or overthrown.

Pei Ge was never one to believe in fate. She had always believed that blood will have blood.

This hatred occupied too much of her heart, but it was also because of this that she urgently needed to complete everything right under her nose.

Ji Ziming sat beside Pei Ge and saw the anger and hatred in the eyes of the woman beside him. He did not know what to say but everything he wanted to say was already wrapped in her hands.

It was so comforting and filled with all his happiness.

“Ziming, do you think I’ll catch this person?”

Pei Ge’s voice was cold and the air was filled with sadness. Although the tears in her eyes were not visible, Ji Ziming could still see them.

“Yes. If you can’t catch her, I’ll help you catch her, so don’t worry. With me around, I’ll let you have everything you want.”

Ji Ziming’s eyes were deep as he looked at Pei Ge with eyes full of happiness and touched.

“Okay.”

Pei Ge nodded and turned around to look at Mother Ji. “Mom, we need to come up with a comprehensive plan. I want to pull that person down from her high horse so that there is no possibility of a reversal.”

The room fell into a long silence as Pei Ge explained the rules she had set in her heart. Although it was not much, it was enough to convince the two.

While the plan was slowly being realized, the person in the plan did not seem to feel anything or mentioned that she had understood.

After Pei Ge was done speaking, Zhang Manhua spoke of the little knot in Pei Ge’s heart. “Ge Ge, did Xiaoyu contact you?”

“No. The people I sent out didn’t find any news of her either. I was thinking if she went to another city, but I can’t even get through to her phone. I also checked several flights to the city she wanted to go to, but I couldn’t find any traces of her.”

Pei Ge looked sad and her beautiful eyes were filled with sorrow as she transitioned from one sorrow to another.

“This is the longest time Xiaoyu has been missing. She has never been like this before, so how can I not worry?”

Zhang Manhua’s eyes were filled with sorrow. She had already used all the resources she had to search for Tang Xiaoyu’s whereabouts, but it was all in vain.

“Mom, don’t worry; I believe in Xiaoyu.”

Although Pei Ge was nervous, she could only understand that in Tang Xiaoyu’s heart, even if she was troubled by something, she would still walk out of her dead end. After all, this was her way of doing things.

What she did not expect was that Tang Xiaoyu’s departure this time was so long that she almost forgot that her best friend was still living a life she did not know.

Perhaps the future was too far in the future and people might forget some things, but it did not mean that they would be forgotten forever.

“Ge Ge, do you know Qitong? She and Bi Zheng were planning to come back to get married. When I returned, she told me to find a suitable venue for her. Ge Ge, when you’re free, come with me to look at the venue, the wedding dresses, and the wedding hall.”

Zhang Manhua leaned on the sofa, looking tired yet calm.

“Okay. Did she say when?”

She blinked and looked into her mother’s eyes. “Oh, right. Mom, isn’t Qitong returning home earlier?”

“Yes, it’s probably in the next two days.”

Her mother nodded and looked at her.

“These two days?”

Pei Ge repeated herself and turned to look at Ji Ziming. “Is dad coming back in these two days?”

“Yes, that’s right. He’s coming back after settling his company matters in America.”

Ji Ziming met Pei Ge’s eyes and saw the beauty in them. He could not help but want to get closer to her and even support her.

“Alright.”

Pei Ge nodded, indicating that she had a rough understanding of Father Ji’s return. However, before he could return, Qin Qitong and Bi Zheng would already have returned.

When the three of them were done discussing, Qu Xiujie brought Mao Nana into the house. He had intended to bring her back to the room on the second floor but was seen by Zhang Manhua who had just opened the door.

“Nana, you guys are back. Quickly come in and let me see what’s wrong. Did you guys fall badly?”

Zhang Manhua was so concerned and it could be seen from her eyes.

“Sister Manhua, I’m fine.”

Mao Nana had a sweet smile in her eyes as she lay on Qu Xiujie’s back and rejected Zhang Manhua’s suggestion.

Only then did Zhang Manhua notice that her knees were completely wrapped in white gauze. Her pair of beautiful long legs had lost their glow.

“Nana, your injury looks bad.”

Zhang Manhua’s look of heartache warmed Mao Nana’s heart.

Mao Nana smiled and explained, “It’s fine. The doctor told me to rest for a few days.”

“It’s more than a few days. The doctor wants you to rest for a month.”

Qu Xiujie, who was carrying Mao Nana, said fiercely. If he did not send her there in time, he did not know how much she would torture herself. She might even crawl on the ground like an insect and that would make things worse for her.

“Na Na has to compete and be a model. Xiujie, you have to take good care of her. If something happens to her leg, or if there are any sequelae, Xiujie, I’ll settle this with you.”

Zhang Manhua looked fiercely at Qu Xiujie. She initially wanted to ask Mao Nana to move into her room but the latter refused.

Standing at the side, Pei Ge poked Ji Ziming’s elbow and said softly, “Uncle’s room is next to Nana’s.”

Ji Ziming lowered his head in understanding. He finally knew what this woman was planning. More accurately, she had followed him from R City to the capital. Her motive could be easily discovered without anyone guessing.
