Chapter 221: A serious man is the most attractive.

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Indeed, as the saying went, a serious man was the most attractive.

Wiser words had never been said.

Pei Ge observed the man sitting beside her and seriously teaching her Greek and, for some reason, found him not as annoying as before.

“What are you thinking of?” he asked, feeling slightly unhappy once he saw her dazed look.

“Ah? Nothing, nothing! I just think that Greek is harder to learn than English.” She licked her lips in embarrassment, her heart panicking a little.

“That’s why you need to pay attention.” He gave her a look and then continued his teaching.

Hearing his light chiding, she dared not daydream again.

She focused on listening to his lecture as she seriously wanted to learn Greek.

This lesson took up the whole day.

When night fell and it was time to prepare dinner, she somehow managed to familiarize herself with Greek.

Pei Ge’s mind was filled with Greek words. Once she was done preparing his dinner, she moved to call Qin Qitong to discuss their dinner date but was interrupted by him.

“Sit down and eat dinner with me,” he told her.

“Eh, CEO Ji, I’ve already made plans to have dinner with Qitong.” She halted her action of making a phone call.

“Don’t mind her.” Lifting his head and seeing her hesitate, he said, “You’ve studied the whole day. I’m sure you are hungry. Sit and eat something first.”

“That... I’d better call her to check still.” She decided to give Qin Qitong a call in the end.

He did not say anything else and simply nodded. The expression on his face was calm, as though he was sure that she would stay for dinner.

“Hey, Qitong, are you off work now?” she asked lightly.

“Wu, wu, wu! Sister Pei Ge, I’m so unlucky! You have no idea how evil that witch, Yang Aoyun, is! She arranged for me to finish so much paperwork tonight, and since I still have lots left, I’ll have to work overtime.” Qin Qitong poured out her anguish to her the moment the call connected.

Pei Ge was slightly baffled by her words. Yang Aoyun would not intentionally give anyone too much paperwork that they would have to stay overtime unless a person had offended her.

Could it be that Qin Qitong’s habitual tardiness prompted Yang Aoyun to finally take action?

“Sister Pei Ge, don’t abandon me! If you are hungry, you can have a light snack, and once I’m done, we can have our dinner!” Qin Qitong was currently full of complaints and did not want to cancel tonight’s date at all.

Pei Ge furtively glanced at the man, who had yet to lift his chopsticks, and said, “Alright. Just call me when you are done.”

“Mhm-kay! I’ll call you as soon as I’m done here!”

Once she ended the call, Pei Ge bashfully looked at Ji Ziming. She mulled on how to inform him of the topic of dinner, but he fortunately broached the matter himself.

“What are you still standing there for? Let’s have dinner.” He sat elegantly in the chair and told her this in an emotionless voice.

“Oh! Okay, I’ll go get the cutlery.” She rushed to the kitchen and took a set of crockery before returning to the table and sitting next to the man.

He quickly passed her an empty bowl as soon as she sat down.

She got what he wanted her to do and immediately poured him soup.

She also poured herself a bowl of soup, which she quickly drank with relish.

While many were fussy about her cooking, she of course was not.

Hei hei! The food she had cooked was actually decent! It was just those people were used to eating high-end cuisines so they were being very picky!

With this thought in mind, she sneaked a peek at the man.

When she saw him enjoying the food she had cooked, she lowered her head and blinked. This annoying person was surprisingly easy to maintain.

No matter what food she made, he never complained about it and, instead, seemed to enjoy eating it very much, which of course made her happy.

She slightly smiled and felt that the food in her mouth was more delicious!

It was supposed to just be a light snack, but...

Before she realized it, she already had two bowls of soup, two bowls of rice, and finished all the dishes on the table with him!

“Ge!” Placing the crockery down, she rubbed her rounded tummy and burped.

I’m doomed. I’m already full; how can I eat with Qin Qitong later? she forlornly thought to herself.

Everything was this annoying person’s fault! Her appetite opened up when she saw him enjoying the food, and she totally forgot about her original intention to eat lightly.

Was the food she had made really that delicious?!

She grumbled while shooting him a look. “CEO Ji, I’ll wash the dishes first.”

Oh, I’d better move about to help my stomach digest the food faster!

“Mhm,” he hummed in acquiescence.

Once she carried the dishes out of the room, his mouth curled into a light smile.

His smile had a trace of smugness, as though his scheme had been successful.

Swash! The tap water ran continuously into the basin.

As she washed the dishes, she thought of the man.

She really could not fathom why he liked her cooking so much.

Although she considered herself as a decent cook, she was not narcissistic enough to think that she was on par with those five-star chefs.

She became more aware of this fact after this morning’s incident. Once she tasted that breakfast Qin Qitong had brought over, she woke up to the truth that her food was merely rubbish to those that were used to eating food cooked by top chefs.

Ironically, that annoying person seemed to enjoy her food more.

This made her feel flattered and... happy!

As she was ruminating on this, her phone suddenly rang.
