Chapter 2977

Ji Ziming’s heart skipped a beat when he heard this. He had gone to great lengths to save her from the abandoned warehouse in the village, but he did not expect to receive such a lukewarm ridicule.

He raised his chin slightly, his deep eyes turning serious.””Yes! I didn’t manage to save you in time, but I really did my best! I’m not …”

“That’s right. CEO Ji, you’re only doing this because you’re concerned about another woman! I’m just a small Special Assistant, why would I be worth your personal rescue? You don’t need to blame yourself or explain, I can understand!” She said through gritted teeth.

“I …” He widened his eyes at her, wanting to argue.

She interrupted him,””Then, CEO Ji, please be more far-sighted when you’re handling business in the future. Don’t let your employees bear the consequences for you, okay? Also, if you really have something that you can’t come over personally, can you please help me call the police? After all, my man isn’t always with me. If one day I accidentally lose my life working at the Ji group, I won’t let you off even if I become a ghost!”

“Pei Pei, I know you’re angry. I’m really sorry for the kidnapping today! But, can you not jump to conclusions so quickly? How do you know what happened to me at that time? Why can’t I go to the scene immediately to save you? Also, can you stop thinking from your own point of view and judging my personality based on Shen Feng’s character?” Seeing that she only cared about Shen Feng, the anger in Ji Ziming’s heart was ignited.

Who knew that she would only continue to sneer as she tried to free her hands from his grip.””I have amnesia, not an idiot. I have my own judgment of everyone’s character. President Ji, please let me go first, that beautiful old friend miss Luo Yi might still be waiting for you!”

The anger on Ji Ziming’s face turned into a bitter smile. He really did not know how to explain things to her. On one hand, she had misunderstood his relationship with Luo Yi. On the other hand, Shen Feng was deliberately trying to break them up.

“Do you really think he’s that worthy of your praise and absolution? Have you ever thought that the person who planned this might be himself?” He knew that she would think that he was defaming the perfect man in her heart by saying this, but he still said it to gain the last bit of trust he had.

However, just as he had expected, she merely sneered at him and did not say another word.

Seeing the disdain in her stubborn eyes and the heaviness in his chest, he laughed bitterly and finally released his grip on her.

“You can leave! I have nothing more to say!” He seemed to have used all his strength to say this. His eyes, which were burning with anger earlier, were now as still as a pool of stagnant water.

PEI GE looked at the man in front of her in shock. Although she wanted to ask about his injuries, the thought of him suffering for the woman called Luo Yi made her feel as if her throat was blocked, and she could not say a word. When she thought of the man who was hurt because of her, the man who really cared about her, still lying on the bed in the ICU, she felt an inexplicable heartache.

She gave Ji Ziming a suspicious look from the corner of her eye before she ran off in the direction of the hospital building.

It was only after a long while that he realized that she had already left. It was as if she had taken away the only trace of warmth in the cold night. The cold wind blew across the surface of the lake, causing the wounds on his face and arms to hurt.

Outside the ICU ward, Wen Xin paced back and forth with her phone in her hand.

“Stop wandering around. You’re making my head hurt!” He said. Huang tie complained in dissatisfaction.

Wen Xin’s face was filled with worry, and the anxiety in her eyes seemed to be about to overflow from her eyes.””Brother Huang tie, do you think that there are still remnants of the kidnappers in this hospital? Why hasn’t sister Pei Pei returned after going out for so long? I just said that I wanted to go with her, but she said that it’s very close and she didn’t need it. I’m really big-hearted, I shouldn’t have let her do what she wants!”

With that, Wen Xin stomped her feet again.

“Don’t worry, when we left, we saw that someone had already brought the police to clear the area. There shouldn’t be any fish that escaped the net. Besides, Pei PEI’s identity shouldn’t be exposed if we leave before the police arrive. ” Cheng Ningyuan said calmly, looking at the uneasy Wen Xin in front of him with a pampering gaze.

Only then did Wen Xin stop in her tracks. She squatted down in front of the stool Cheng Ningyuan was sitting on and asked,””Really? Sister Pei Pei will be fine? But why did she hang up on me when I called her?”

“I’m back now!” Before Cheng Ningyuan could think of a reply to Wen Xin, Huang tie, who was behind him, spoke to PEI GE, who had suddenly appeared at the elevator.

Wen Xin and Cheng Ningyuan immediately looked over. Wen Xin jogged over and held PEI GE’s hand, crying tears of joy.””Sister Pei Pei, why did you take so long to buy porridge? I thought something happened to you. ”

She was still immersed in her thoughts of meeting the man by the lake.

Hearing Wen Xin’s question, she looked down at her little hands. They were empty, so she stuck one hand to the back of her head and laughed awkwardly.””Yup! Why did I take so long?”

“Sister Pei Pei, are you … Okay?” Wen Xin could sense that PEI GE’s face was not looking too good as it fluctuated between red and white. She hurriedly asked,””Are you feeling unwell because you were kidnapped and didn’t eat your meals and take your medicine on time? Don’t force yourself!”

Seeing that Wen Xin’s hand was about to touch her forehead, PEI GE immediately dodged it in disgust and guiltily shifted her eyes.””Ah, I’m fine. I just went out for a walk. Maybe it was too late, so I got lost. I didn’t manage to buy any congee. Why don’t I go and feed Shen Feng some water? in a few hours, there should be breakfast stalls by the roadside!”

She was about to walk into the ward when Cheng Ningyuan hurriedly stopped her.

“AI! Wait a minute!” Cheng Ningyuan said as he walked past Huang tie and strode toward Wen Xin and PEI GE.
