Chapter 2327: Everything is a misunderstanding.

“Yes.”

PEI GE softly replied. This was a wealthy District, so there were very few taxis here. She was still wearing high heels today, so there was no need to continue being stubborn with him.

“Wait for me to get the car.”

Ji Ziming draped his clothes over her and left.

More and more cars were coming out after they passed the villa area, but the man had no intention of stopping. It was already dark, so how could he be at ease letting her go back by herself?

“You can just leave me here.”

PEI GE looked at the taxi cars outside and saw that many of them were empty. She could totally go home. It was very dark inside the car, so she could only see the side of his face and not his expression. She could not even tell what he was thinking.

“Alright, we’re here.”

The man did not say a word along the way until they reached her house. He then unlocked the car door.

“Thank you,” he said.

She said this after alighting from the car, but her heart felt empty. She did not know what she had done wrong. If it were in the past, he would definitely think of a way to ask for a good night kiss, but she was not used to this.

“Good night,” she said.

He hesitated for a moment before peeking his head out of the car window. He still could not bear to do this to her, but he still felt a little uncomfortable inside, though he could not put his finger on the reason.

When he returned home, his father was still sitting on the sofa with a few cigarette butts in front of him. He looked a little tired.

“Dad,” he said.

Ji Ziming returned to his seat. He wanted to know what his father was thinking. If his father was on his side, things would be easier.

“Ask your mother to come down.”

Father Ji extinguished the cigarette in his hand. This matter had to be resolved. If the two children really liked each other, it was not impossible. There were times when people were not wrong.

Ji Ziming knew that there was still hope when he heard his father’s words. As for his mother, he would have to take it slow.

Gu Sheng went downstairs unwillingly, but it was only because he had heard that PEI GE had left. Otherwise, she would not have come down to see a woman who wanted to kill her son.

“No one needs to discuss this with me. I will never agree to this woman entering our family.”

The moment Gu Sheng sat down, he made his attitude clear. He was very tough and did not leave any room for negotiation. It was as if there was no one in the house if she was there.

“What’s so bad about her that you hate her so much?”

Father Ji said worriedly. He did not like this about Gu Sheng. He was so unyielding that it was unbearable. If it was not for her temper, they would not have ended up like this.

They had been husband and wife for so many years, so they couldn’t divorce. They could only tolerate it.

“That’s right, mom. She’s a good person. Why don’t you like her?”

The moment he thought of Gu Sheng’s attitude toward PEI GE, he started to get angry again. Even his attitude toward Gu Sheng changed a lot. He usually listened to their opinions not because he was afraid but because he respected them. However, he also needed to be respected.

“Just because she wanted to harm you back then, you don’t hold a grudge?”

Gu Sheng looked at Ji Ziming in exasperation. He had found so many young ladies for her, and all of them were better than that PEI GE. He really did not know what was so good about that woman.

“Mom, she misunderstood you back then. Didn’t you make any mistakes?”

The victim was him, not his mother. He had already gotten over this, so why was his mother still unable to forgive her?

“Just because it’s in the past, we can pretend it never happened? What if something really happened to you? what would you and my father do?”

Gu Sheng looked at Ji Ziming with heartache. The more he defended that woman, the more she looked down on her and could not see any good points about her.

“Don’t meddle in the children’s Affairs. I think that girl is quite good. ”

Sensing that Gu Sheng and Ji Ziming were about to quarrel, father Ji stepped in at the appropriate time. However, looking at Gu Sheng’s expression, it did not seem to have any effect and seemed to be adding fuel to the fire.

“Great, you and your father were both drugged by that woman, right?”

Gu Sheng was so angry that he was trembling. That woman was good and it was all her fault. They were all good people, alright? Then she would be the bad person to the end.

“I won’t agree to that woman marrying into the family.”

Gu Sheng said with a firm attitude. Then, he went upstairs without caring about any comments or expressions of the father and son. He had been angry the whole day. If he did not take good care of himself, he would get wrinkles.

“Dad, you should rest early too.”

He sighed. He already knew that his mother’s plan would not work, but he did not expect her to block the road so tightly.

“Yes, I didn’t let her down. Take your time with your mother.”

Father Ji still felt guilty. If that lady could marry into the family, it would be a kind of compensation.

After washing up, Ji Ziming kept tossing and turning in bed, not feeling sleepy at all. This matter had become a worry in his heart. In the business world, he had never been worried about business.

He looked at his phone and saw that it was already 11 am. He did not know if she was asleep yet, so he dialed her number. After thinking about it, he gave up on it and decided to look for her tomorrow.

That night, she did not sleep well. Her dreams were filled with Gu Sheng’s face telling her to leave Ji Ziming. His scolding was etched deeply in her heart, and she did not know how many times she had woken up that night.

PEI GE did not go to work. She had completed the project on hand and could rest for a day. As for working overtime, that was just an excuse to avoid the man.

Ji Ziming had been absent-minded the entire day at work. When it was finally time to get off work, he ran to her office building, unable to wait to see her.

When the sky turned dark, he still could not find PEI GE in the crowd. When he tried calling her, he could not get through either, so he could only run to her office helplessly. Only after asking around did he find out that she was not at work.

The moment he heard this news, he immediately drove to her house, cutting the long journey in half.

‘PEI GE? PEI GE, are you there?”

Ji Ziming kept knocking on her door, but there was no response. He stood at the door and could not hear anything from inside. At this moment, his heart was burning with anxiety.

He kept feeling that he was about to lose her. This thought gave him a fright. No, he could not; he would never let her leave him.

‘PEI Ge, Pei Ge, Pei GE …’
