Chapter 2937 : Long time no see.
“I think I have a good eye. At least the designers and special assistants I personally picked are all good.” He flicked the bouquet in his arms with his slender fingers. A few drops of water bounced in the sun, making it look very dazzling.
It was still a cloudy day in the morning, but now, a few rays of sunlight shone through the clouds. The weather in A city was just like Ji Ziming’s mood, changing unpredictably.
Seeing him return with the flowers, she furrowed her brows and took a step back. Just as she was about to sneak away, she heard him say,””My old friend will be here in half an hour. If you want to get off work early, come in and help me, or else … Hmph, you know the consequences!”
Hearing this threat, PEI GE’s pink lips pursed into a straight line, and her fair face was filled with anger. She clenched her fists and rushed toward Ji Ziming’s back as he walked into the house, but in the end, she still stepped back and entered the villa.
Just as she had imagined, the villa’s decorations were luxurious yet simple. Without much surprise, she followed his call and arrived at the open-air garden with a swimming pool.
“Go to the kitchen and get me two wine glasses and a cake from the refrigerator.” PEI GE was still admiring the view of the upper-class family’s Villa like Granny Liu when she heard the man ordering her about the chores.
“I understand, CEO Ji,” she replied unhappily.
Ji Ziming wanted her to forget that she did not have long to live in her busy life and work. He did not want her to be immersed in the fear of death for even a second. If the foreign experts were helpless when the test results came out, he would do everything in his power to bring her to experience the beauty of this world with the last of her life.
The man sighed as he watched her stubbornly walk into the house to get her things.
After looking around, he realized that everything was almost ready. He raised his hand slightly to look at his watch and muttered in his heart,””Luo Yi should be here soon, I hope she can temporarily put aside the grief of losing Jerry and help me. If she really still cares about me, I’ll definitely take this opportunity to win her back and make her face her true feelings. There’s not much time left, and I’m definitely in her heart … I believe so!”
Just as he was thinking about this, she put on a fake smile and walked toward the man’s table with two wine glasses in one hand and a delicate cake in another.
Ji Ziming’s heart actually ached for her. She had just recovered, yet she was already running back and forth for him. However, since he had already discussed this with Luo Yi last night, he had no choice but to bear with his heartache and continue on.
Just as she was about to help, she quickly dodged and carefully put down the cup and cake in her hands.
As she arranged the decorations, she said,”sigh, CEO Ji, there’s no need for you to personally come over for such a small matter. This is what I should do as your Special Assistant. You should take a good look at your appearance and greet your old friend with the best attitude. You have flowers and cakes here. Forgive me for guessing, but your old friend must be a woman, right?”
He did not expect her to suddenly ask this question, and a teasing glint appeared in his eyes as he asked,””If she was a woman, do you think she would like today’s reception? I’m actually quite worried that she’ll hate the things I’ve prepared. ”
Actually, when she saw the cake, she was already thinking, if it were two grown men, why would there be a need for flowers and a cake? Now that he asked this, she was even more convinced that her guess was correct.
As she placed the cup and cake down, she actually felt a little envious, and her nose felt a little sour for some reason. However, she knew that all this did not belong to her but to a woman ‘s’ old friend ‘. Calming herself down, she straightened her body and clapped her hands.”Alright, it’s done. Don’t worry, CEO Ji. Girls like this kind of romantic and surprising arrangement-fresh flowers, fine wine, beautiful scenery, and handsome men-everything is here. If your old friend is a girl, she’ll definitely be touched to tears!”
The man burst into laughter at her cute and confident look. Just as he was about to praise her, the doorbell rang again.
This time, before he could say anything, she raised her pinky and interrupted,””Eh, CEO Ji, this is definitely your old friend. I’ll immediately open the door for him! You can just wait here!”
Seeing her quick-witted look, Ji Ziming actually wanted to tell her not to run so fast. After all, she had just recovered, but it was already too late. Her figure had already disappeared around the corner of the exit.
PEI GE was not actually trying to claim credit from him. She just wanted to quickly let her old friend in and greet her so that she could quickly go back to sleep. After all, she had been unconscious for so long last night and had only woken up a few hours ago. She still wanted to go back earlier to sleep, or else she would not have the energy for this devilish CEO’s battle of wits and courage tomorrow.
She was about to jog to the main entrance when she suddenly stopped in her tracks. Her watery eyes seemed to have spotted someone who made her heart skip a beat.
Yes, she saw a beautiful figure standing at the door. As expected, Ji Ziming’s old friend was indeed a woman. However, this woman was none other than Luo Yi, the one she had met when she had participated in a jewelry design competition in Florence!
“It’s you?” She stood rooted to the spot as if possessed and slowly raised her hand to point at Luo Yi.
Luo Yi was wearing a white lace one-piece dress and a long black woolen coat. She smiled at PEI GE, and her smile seemed to be able to melt the early winter of A city into spring.
“Long time no see! Pei Pei! Please help me open the door. ”
She was slightly taken aback at this and hurriedly took the remaining two steps to press the door button on the wall.
The moment the metal gate slowly opened, Luo Yi’s angelic face came into PEI GE’s sight.
