"Ziming, you've truly gotten it wrong. I really said 'remarkable.'"
She eyed the door handle beside her. She only needed to take one more step to press on it so that she could escape. After running out, she would not have to care any longer what it was that she had said.
Ji Ziming had already seen through her thoughts with his eagle-like eyes. His gaze darkened as his hands blocked her path. The moment he moved was the exact same time the woman moved.
With his strong hands, he grabbed her skinny ones and spoke in his low, endearing voice. "You even want to flee?"
"You two, why are you still standing there? Hurry up and come in."
Coincidentally, his mother arrived at the door. Seeing how her brawny son was blocking the petite woman, she thought that the two were at odds with each other.
"Coming, coming."
Pei Ge decided to present the older woman with a small red flower for saving her tonight.
"You!"
