Chapter 3062  : I do not wish to dampen your enthusiasm.

“How could this be? “How could he have hidden everything so well? I thought I’d already made my way into his heart. Little did I know that he’d never opened his heart to me …” The calm expression that had just returned to Wenxin’s face was now replaced with a faint sense of sadness.

She could only sigh and remain silent.

“It’s getting late, let’s all rest early. When Ning Yuan calms down tomorrow, we’ll make our next move. ” After a long time, seeing that Wen Xin’s sleepiness was becoming more obvious, PEI GE patted her on the shoulder.

“Okay, sister Pei Pei, thank God you guys came, otherwise I really wouldn’t know what to do today. When Ning Yuan is stubborn, even ten bulls can’t pull him back. ” Wen Xin got up and listlessly walked towards her bed.

After making sure that Wenxin was asleep, PEI GE saw that the moon was bright outside. Knowing that she would not be able to sleep as well, she pushed open the door to the inn and went out for a walk.

“Why didn’t you put on a coat? What if you catch a cold?” After standing under the tree for a while, she ran into Ji Ziming, who had just returned from chasing after Cheng Ningyuan.

Seeing her standing alone under a peach tree in a daze, he walked over to her with a frown and put on his coat for her. He then pretended to reprimand her in a heart-aching tone.

“Ziming, you’re back? How was it? What did Ning Yuan say?” She turned to look at the coat he had put on her, and a hint of joy appeared in her eyes, but it was not the gentleness and concern he showed her.

“You only know how to care about others. Did you hear what I said?” The man’s frown had yet to relax. As he was unhappy that she had ignored his question, he did not answer her and, instead, lightly brushed the tip of her cold nose.

She knew that he was worried about her. She smiled and brushed her hair back, but the uneasiness on her face was still obvious.

“Why are you so disobedient? it’s so cold at night and we’re in a small town in a remote mountainous area. What should I do if I catch a cold?” Ji Ziming repeated. As he spoke, he held her small hands in his and rubbed them together before blowing on them.

“I’m not cold, Ziming. I just came out not long ago, so I’m not very cold. By the way, did you … Catch up with Ning Yuan? It’s so late, where did he go?” Although she was touched by the man’s protectiveness, she was still worried about Cheng Ningyuan, so she raised her head slightly and asked the question she was most worried about.

Even though he was very unhappy to see her frantically pull her hand away from him, the corners of his mouth still twitched.””Alright, alright, I’ll tell you everything. But I think it’s a little cold outside. If you don’t feel cold, can you make do with me? Let’s go inside and talk. ”

With a face full of reluctance, he pulled her by the hand and walked into the room. She shook her head helplessly, but he still dragged her back to her room.

After entering the inn, he was not in a hurry to tell her about Cheng Ningyuan. Instead, he poured himself another cup of hot tea and took his time to drink it.

Knowing that he was at loggerheads with her, she could only sigh and sit on the bed.

Putting down the glass, he walked to her side and gently said,””Pei Pei, I’m not saying that you shouldn’t care about that kid, but can you not make me worry too? Look at you these past two days, you either left without saying goodbye to me or your car tires burst in the wilderness, and you’re being coveted by other men. If I didn’t come in time, I really don’t know what would have happened. ”

She was already brooding over his cold attitude, so for some reason, her heart was filled with anger when he ridiculed her.

She looked at him with a red face and said,”‘Ziming, I’ve already said that I didn’t give you a heads up before coming out to look for Ningyuan. I’m sorry for not considering it properly. But I’m sure you’re clear that even if I tell you, will you really bring me here? Don’t even mention me coming here alone, right? Also, the car tire burst and I met that man. I’ve already explained to you that it was really an accident. Both of us are innocent. Why do you keep harping on this matter?”

Ji Ziming was stunned to see her furious look. He did not expect her to be so angry at him over Cheng Ningyuan’s matter.

The tsundere CEO, who had the upper hand, now had a vexed look on his face. He raised his hands to interrupt her, but he stammered,””I … Pei Pei … Listen to me …” After a while, he still lowered his eyebrows.

Seeing him admit defeat, she took a deep breath and suppressed the rising and falling of her chest.”‘Ziming, to be honest, I’ve been playing along with your decision recently. Actually, I’m really tired sometimes. But seeing that you’ve been so excited, I don’t want to dampen your spirits. However, I’ve had enough of what happened today. Can you give me some personal space? if you’re still worried about me, or if I’ve done anything to make you feel insecure, can you tell me the truth? I really don’t want to live like a Canary in a cage every day. ”

Ji Ziming puffed out his cheeks and let out a deep breath. Seeing that she did not say anything else and was waiting for his reply, he actually did not know what to say.

The atmosphere in the room was cold to the extreme. To prevent her from being emotionally affected, he knew that it was best to shut up.

Therefore, she calmed herself down and finally said coldly,””Pei Pei, I really didn’t know that you’d feel this way when we’re together these days. If he had known … Forget it, it was useless to say all this now. It wouldn’t change anything. Alright, I admit it. It’s all my fault. However, it’s really late today. Pei Pei, let’s stop here for today. If there’s anything else, let’s talk about it tomorrow morning, okay?”

It was not that she could not tell that the man was begging her to admit his mistake and let this matter pass.

However, this was not what she wanted. She wanted him to give her the freedom she deserved and to tell her personally that he trusted her. In this situation, he could be a man and tell her that she did not need to be afraid and that he would settle everything, including Cheng Ningyuan’s matter, instead of acting like a child who only knew how to get jealous.
