Chapter 1746: I am Still Ji Ziming’s Fiancée

Auntie Zhang stood at the same spot. Although she was infuriated by Qu Jingwan, she was less angry when she thought of Qu Jingwan’s current state. After all, she was experienced and knew what it was like to be anxious and red-eyed. However, she reckoned that a lady like Qu Jingwan would soon know how it felt to be humiliated by someone she looked down on.

However, to Auntie Zhang’s disappointment, Pei Ge did not purposely humiliate or make things difficult for her. She did not even say anything embarrassing.

“Auntie Zhang, go get busy. I’m here and that’s enough.”

Pei Ge stood at the entrance of the villa and watched Qu Jingwan walk in arrogantly.

“Madam, this…”

A hint of worry appeared in Auntie Zhang’s eyes. She was unsure if this Qu Jingwan could be controlled by Pei Ge alone. She had seen Qu Jingwan’s prowess and knew that she had never taken a liking to anyone. Even Ji Ziming might not be able to catch her eye.

“It’s fine; I’m fine. If Miss Qu injures me today, I’m afraid that she won’t be able to walk out of our house alive.”

There was a hint of a smile in Pei Ge’s eyes, but the corners of her lips were frighteningly cold. She exuded a cold aura and looked at Qu Jingwan with dark eyes.

Qu Jingwan stood in front of Pei Ge, but her eyes were calm and carried a hint of anger. It was as though she had never expected Pei Ge to say something so obvious. She wanted to retaliate but realized that she did not have the confidence.

“Miss Qu, am I right?”

Pei Ge looked at Qu Jingwan gently.

“That’s right. Auntie Zhang, don’t worry. I won’t do anything to your master. You should hurry back to your work.”

Qu Jingwan turned around and smiled.

“Alright, then. I’ll go do my stuff. You guys continue.”

Auntie Zhang nodded and looked at Pei Ge and Qu Jingwan. She already had a plan in her mind and thought that if Qu Jingwan really dared to do anything to Pei Ge, she would quickly bring her bodyguards and rush to the scene. No matter what, she had to drag Qu Jingwan out and protect Pei Ge.

Everyone else had nothing to do with her.

Auntie Zhang turned to look at Qu Jingwan and realized that Qu Jingwan did not look like she wanted to do anything bad to Pei Ge. However, how could someone like her let go of any chance to settle scores with Pei Ge?

But this time, Auntie Zhang really miscalculated.

“Miss Qu, have a seat inside.”

After Auntie Zhang left with a relieved expression, Pei Ge ushered Qu Jingwan into the conference room.

Qu Jingwan, who was standing at the door, snorted in displeasure. Her red lips were like roses blooming on blood. “Pei Ge, I’m more familiar with this villa than you are. Although you can continue staying in this family, in the headlines, I’m still Ji Ziming’s fiancée. You haven’t forgotten this, right?”

Qu Jingwan was arrogant and seemed to have forgotten why she was looking for Pei Ge.

“I haven’t forgotten, but so what if you’re his fiancée? Isn’t Ziming still not helping your Qu family?”

Pei Ge pursed her lips into a smile. The curve of her lips was very obvious as she looked coldly at Qu Jingwan and continued, “I know that you will come looking for me. I also know that other than me, you can’t find anyone else who is willing to help you. Since that’s the case, why don’t you say something nice to flatter me, who is giving you face and a chance?”

Pei Ge curled her lips and looked at Qu Jingwan with hatred.

Ever since she found out that Qu Xiujie was her uncle, she finally understood that she was the real lady of the Qu family. Qu Jingwan, who was standing in front of her now, was merely a pitiful worm that was relying on her grandmother to continue living in the Qu family. That Old lady Qu was the ‘thief’ that she hated the most.

She stole all the happiness that should have belonged to Pei Ge.

If not for Old lady Qu, her grandmother would not have left the Qu family. If she had not left the Qu family, she would not have been forced to leave this world early and her own father would not have died in such an accident.

All the evidence showed that Old lady Qu was the true mastermind behind her father’s accident back then. It was precisely because of this that neither she nor Ji Ziming had a good impression of the Qu family.

So what if Old master Qu was her grandfather? He did not even know that Pei Ge, who had the same bloodline as him, was living in the same city as him.

“You!”

Qu Jingwan, who was being exposed by Pei Ge, revealed a timid look as though someone had discovered her secret. It was as though she was not purposely making things difficult for her earlier.

“What about me? Do you want me to help you or not? Shall I guess?”

Pei Ge sat on the chair and looked up at Qu Jingwan. Her voice was cold and distant.

“Let me guess then. How are you living in the Qu family now? You must have been treated poorly. I’m afraid that your grandmother, who has always doted on you, can’t do anything this time.”

Pei Ge pursed her lips and laughed. She looked at Qu Jingwan, who was standing in front of her, and her eyes shone.

Qu Jingwan stood at the same spot and did not dare to speak. She was now like a criminal who was about to be judged. She only waited for her judgment, but she did not have the ability to change the situation and or even find a reason to refute Pei Ge.

“Qu Jingwan, let me tell you; it’s useless even if you come looking for me. Not only will I not help you, I’ll even hit you when you’re down until I crush your Qu family. Do you want to try?”

Pei Ge leaned against the back of the chair. The cold sofa was very comfortable to the touch, but at this moment, Pei Ge felt as though a bucket of ice water had been poured into her heart. There was no warmth at all. She was a member of the Qu family yet she harbored no feelings for them.

There would be one day where she would slowly and little by little make those who hurt her pay for it. This was because Pei Ge was no longer the Pei Ge of the past. No one would bully her or do anything to make her unhappy anymore.

Even if that person was Qu Jingwan, it was impossible because Qu Jingwan did not have the right to stand in front of her and ask for her forgiveness or for her to even extend her hand to help.

The pain and hatred from the past and present were slowly brewing in her mind.
