She nodded.”Alright, I’ll listen to you and arrange this for you. I believe in He Yun’s ability.”

PEI GE had long believed in He Yun, who had been by Ji Ziming’s side loyally ever since they first met. Although he made mistakes at times, he was still serious and meticulous in his work.

“Alright, I’ll make the arrangements. I’ll let you choose when the time comes. Woman, it’s time to shower.”

The man lay on her neck, his body no longer in his control.

“I’ll go and wash myself. ”

She wanted to stand up, but the pair of large hands on her stomach held her back, and she did not have the strength to do so.

“Let go of me.”

The smile in PEI GE’s eyes disappeared, replaced by a slight hint of anger.

What she did not know was that, at this moment, she was extremely terrifying to the man.

“No, I’ll help you take a bath, okay?”

His voice was gentle and coquettish like a child.

“No, I don’t want you to shower.”

Although she knew that her wound should not come into contact with water, she still preferred to take a shower by herself. She would be able to wash up quickly without the man’s help.

“What if I want to give you a bath?”

He lifted his head from her neck and looked at her with a smile.”Just let me bathe you. I promise not to touch you.”

She would never believe his words. Rather than believing them, she would rather believe that her scars would not heal.

“No, if you don’t let go, I’ll …”

She rolled her eyes and pouted. She did not think of what she would do if she did not agree to him bathing her. The threats she used to make him do were no longer effective.

“You’ll what? You won’t let me get on the bed?”

He laughed as if he already knew what she was going to do to him, but how could he not know what his woman was up to?

“You’re one of them. Let me tell you, let go of me, or you’ll …”

“I’ll die an ugly death, so let me die an ugly death. ”

Ji Ziming looked like he had given up. It was not easy to gain her trust.

“Then you can try.”

She had only said this casually, but the man carried her in his arms. Her slippers fell to the floor with a dull thud, and because she was suddenly in the air, she tightly hugged the collar of his pajamas.

There was not a single mark on his gray silk pajamas, though. Her fair arms were still wrapped around his neck, and there was a hint of anxiety in her voice.”Ziming, you can’t help me shower. My wound hasn’t healed yet.”

“But I want to.”

The man finally let go of his words and spoke the answer in his heart.

“I know. Wait for me to get better.”

PEI GE also took a step back. Seeing the hurt in his eyes, she knew that this man had already endured a lot for her, but she could not fulfill his dream before her wound had fully recovered.

Actually, she knew that even if she was willing, the man would not really touch her. This was because he was so quiet and gentle when he was bathing her. She did not want to believe that this man was the ‘beast’ who could torture her in bed until dawn.

The two of them entered Dreamland as they breathed in each other’s throats. PEI GE, who was nestled in his warm arms, felt very safe, and the quality of her sleep improved.

The early morning sun seeped in through the window, and the two of them were slightly awake in bed.

Her phone rang, and his eyes lit up when he picked it up with his long and slender arms.

“Mom, why are you calling so early in the morning?”

He did not understand why his mother was already up with the three children at this time.

“It’s not me; it’s GE GE’s uncle. We’re in city R right now. Didn’t he save the damsel in distress yesterday? the damsel in distress won first place in the city’s model competition today, and in the final award segment, that old geezer was announced. This is great; we’re almost becoming celebrities in city R.”

It was clearly something to be happy about, but he could hear a hint of complaint and melancholy in his mother’s voice.

“It’s okay, mom. Don’t worry. I’ll handle it.”

Understanding the meaning behind his mother’s words, he could only sigh at how qu xiujie was still young. Even a model he had casually saved could become the top model in R City. This was the beginning of a rich family’s history that the fair, rich, and beautiful woman had taken a liking to. It was just that qu xiujie still didn’t understand everything.

Thinking of qu xiujie’s past actions, Ji Ziming really suspected that the current him was not the real him.

After his mother hung up, he picked up his phone and called He Yun.

“He Yun, go and check the identity of the champion of the model competition in city R. Also, teach her how to shut up.”

Ji Ziming’s voice was cold, and with the morning air, he looked like a Messenger who had just crawled out of hell.

“Okay, President, I understand.”

He Yun understood the meaning behind his words. Even though he had just spent a cold night at the table, he still wanted to complete the task he had given him.

“Yes.”

He let out a snort and hung up the phone. PEI GE, who was in his arms, was starting to wake up.

“This early?”

PEI GE rubbed her eyes, her face still slightly flushed. She had a good night’s sleep.

“Yes, only a lazy pig like you will wake up.”

The man ruffled her hair, and she quickly turned her head away from his arm. She was in his arms before she fell asleep and was still in his arms when she woke up, though the direction had changed.

“I’m not a little lazy pig. ”

She mumbled as she buried herself in the blanket. Ji Ziming’s lips curled up as he watched the little woman run away like an ostrich. Pulling the blanket aside, he planted a kiss on her forehead and continued,”you’re a lazy pig, but I like it very much. You can only be my lazy pig, you know that, my little woman?”
