Chapter 588: Quibbling with Ji Ziming, this ice mountain, over a woman!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Ziming, you’re finally here.”
Striding to his best friend, Mu Heng welcomed them with a smile.
“Mhm.” The man merely hummed in reply at his approaching friend.
“Yo! This must be Little Chili!” The playboy grinned at her purposely.
Pei Ge felt her heart ease at the sight of this familiar person, but noting his cheekiness, as well as his nickname for her, she could not help but roll her eyes at him.
“Ha ha! It really is Little Chili!” The Casanova grinned at her coquettishly. “Little Chili, look how pretty you are today. I almost didn’t recognize you.
“If not for Ziming holding your hand, I’d really think that some huge idol had just arrived. I nearly thought you had plastic surgery with your looks now!”
“… No one will assume that you’re a mute if you shut up.” She tugged at her lips and rolled her eyes at him exasperatedly.
“Ha ha! Indeed, even if you’ve become prettier, you are still Little Chili through and through!” he happily exclaimed.
“… You must be sick.” This guy was really acting weird today, yet no matter how she looked, she could not understand what was wrong with him.
“Aiya, Ziming! We’ve been waiting for you for so long! You really got here very late today!” Liao Gaofei also walked over; his eyes were riveted on Pei Ge.
Noting his gaze, Ji Ziming frowned slightly and then angled his body to block his view.
His friend was no fool. Perceiving his action, Liao Gaofei rubbed his nose a little sheepishly.
“Ziming, when did you get a girlfriend? Why wasn’t I informed?”
The unspoken meaning was: ‘I am very curious!’
“Mhm. I don’t see the need to inform you,” he blandly stated.
This response made Liao Gaofei recall Mu Heng’s earlier warning.
His slightly cloudy mind cleared up in that instant.
Don’t tell me that limbs are truly not as important as clothes?!
It was as if someone had splashed a bucket of cold water to his heart filled with lascivious thoughts over this beauty. When he looked at Ji Ziming this time, he only felt aggrieved inside!
He was originally gazing admiringly and appreciatively at his friend’s woman, but now, his gaze on her had been marred by slight displeasure.
Wu wu wu! We’re best buddies, but because of you, Ziming is being fierce with me!
The other two men’s lips twitched at Liao Gaofei’s expression, and disdain flashed past their eyes.
Meanwhile, Pei Ge’s sight was blocked by the man’s frame, so she did not notice what was happening.
She only knew that one of the man’s friends had come over.
Er… Should I come forward? I’m acting as Ji Ziming’s girlfriend now, and… I’m here to be a shield!
I can’t back out at this time!
Go, Pei Ge! You’ve been learning a lot about socializing at Bauhinia Court for a while now!
Don’t chicken out now. You can do it!
In order not to let this annoying fellow lose face and not to give him a chance to call you stupid, go ahead and show him a new side of you right here and now!
“Hello, I’m Pei Ge. You’re Ziming’s friend, right? Nice to meet you.” She slowly walked out from behind the man, and with a polite smile, she gently looked at depressed Liao Gaofei.
In fact, this smile was not simple. It was what Ms. Qin, her etiquette teacher, had personally crafted for her.
As everyone’s facial muscles moved differently, it was impossible for them to look good with the same smile.
Sometimes, the curling of lips upward would give birth to a different type of beauty or give the receiver a different feeling.
The light smile now, which was inculcated on her based on her facial-muscle structure, was what her etiquette teacher named as ‘a goddess smile’.
It meant exactly that: Anyone who saw this smile would find it fatally disarming, as if a goddess had smiled on them.
The etiquette teacher had told her that this smile would make her look friendly, and no one should be able to harbor any negative feelings toward her with it.
However, what she did not know was that, with her current looks, this goddess smile had a destructive power of… 200%!
Alas, she truly did not realize this and just softened her smile further.
Her clear and watery eyes curved into crescents, making one feel weak in the knees.
“…” Er. What’s wrong? I already greeted him, so why isn’t he responding?!
He’s so disrespectful!
Her smile, which could make one intoxicated, froze on her lips.
Pound, pound! Liao Gaofei felt his heart becoming foreign. In fact, the way it banged against his ribcage made him think that he might suffer a heart attack.
Yes. If she continues smiling at me, I may really suffer a heart attack!
She’s so freaking beautiful!
She’s truly terrible! How can she smile at me like this? Is she trying to seduce me?!
Wu wu wu! I don’t wanna snatch this frightening ice mountain’s woman! Wu wu wu! Still, she’s so beautiful she’s making heart itch! Wu wu wu! Should I… give it a try?!
Wu wu wu! Forget it! I surely won’t win. Wu wu wu! Also, this boorish and despicable guy is really scary when he plots against someone…
This poor Liao Gaofei had all kinds of chaotic thoughts running through his head, but what he did not realize was that his goddess already had a bad impression of him! In fact, her impression of him was in the negative.
“Don’t smile!”
Just as she felt her facial muscles turning stiff from the smile, a cold palm descended on her face, followed by a cold and low voice entering her ears.
“…” She could not help the twitching of her lips at his order and at the palm covering her face.
What’s wrong with this annoying fellow this time?
“I forbid you from smiling. D’you hear me?” He reiterated his order at her silence.
“Oh, okay.” Although she did not know the reason for his totally abnormal actions, she still nodded perceptively at him before casually swatting away his hand covering her face.
His face turned a few shades darker when she pushed his hand away, for he felt the crowd’s gazes on her even more.
Inside, he resolved, I will never ever bring this dumb woman to events like this again!
