Chapter 229: Wake up, you foolish young lady.

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Her best friend, Tang Xiaoyu, said many times before that her cousin was not a good person. Pan Xinlei, who treated her well, and the naïve Qin Qitong also said that.

Now, Mu Heng was saying the same thing.

At this very moment, Pei Ge thought that she should face reality and should not continue making excuses for her cousin whom she grew up with.

“My cousin... What kind of person is she in your eyes?” She raised her head to look at Ji Ziming and Mu Heng.

“She?” Mu Heng smirked lightly and answered in a mocking tone, “Your cousin has multiple facets, so her image differs from person to person. She acts in one way in front of me and another way in front of Ziming. Simply put, your cousin is very good at pretending. Her acting is so marvelous that it is a pity she isn’t an actress.” He tugged at his lips, looking as if he disdained talking about Pei Shishi.

“A foolish young lady like you should avoid her at all cost. If possible, you should hide far away from her. That woman is so shrewd that a stupid person like you is not her opponent. It is just like what happened this time. I’m sure you are still trying to find an excuse for her vile deed even after what happened yesterday.”

Although Mu Heng was a Casanova, with the disposition of a young master, he could accurately judge a person’s character.

If it were in the past, she would long start arguing with the man for calling her stupid and foolish.

However, how would she have the mind to do that today?

“Do you guys know...” Her usual lively look was replaced by a sorrowful one.

At such a Pei Ge, Ji Ziming’s heart squeezed. The anger he felt for Pei Shishi was also rising fast without him noticing it.

“In my eyes, she is the most perfect, most beautiful, and kindest...” Her lips curled with sadness as different memories from her past resurfaced in her mind.

“We grew up together. When I lost my father, she accompanied me and patiently chatted with me. The gentle her ate and stayed with me at the hospital... After that, because of some family issues, I lived under the same roof with her. During my stay there, my cousin took care of me. She always thought of me first when there was something good. She never spent her allowance and always gave it to me...”

Perhaps, because she had been suppressing herself so much or she wanted to confide in someone, she recounted all the memories of Pei Shishi in a sorrowful tone without holding back and caring about the identities of the two before her.

“She’s a family that I care so much about. Her position in my heart is only next to my parents.” She sucked in a deep breath after saying this and smiled sadly at Mu Heng before continuing, “You are right. Even if all the evidence points out to my cousin being the mastermind behind that Liu Yue incident, I still refuse to believe it and am actually trying to hide from that fact.”

Pei Ge had a sad smile on her face. Her smile was so pure and genuine that, even if she did not possess a stunning face, she came off as the most beautiful person out there.

This pure and clean smile stunned the two men.

“I don’t want to believe that. I even found numerous reasons for her because... she is the sister who accompanied and reached out to me during the lowest point of my life – the sister whom I grew up with.”

I don’t want to lose that sister. We can fight. We can have a cold war, but I don’t want to lose the sister whom I care so much about. Still... I think that I am probably fated to lose her. From the moment Cousin laid her hands on me – from the moment I started doubting her... We... can never go back.

“Foolish woman...” Ji Ziming saw her tear-stained face and felt something squeezing his heart. He had this uncontrollable urge to embrace her and wipe the tears off her face.

He did not want to see her sad.

“Foolish... Foolish...” Mu Heng regained his senses and shook his head at the clear drops of tears on her face. “If she really treated you as her sister, she wouldn’t snatch your ex-boyfriend, set you with so many unreliable blind dates, and do something that will destroy your reputation just because of your connection to Ziming.” He sighed and regarded her pityingly.

Once he found out that Pei Ge was Pei Shishi’s cousin, he had someone investigate her. He did that because of his best friend’s unusual interest in Pei Ge.

Thus, he knew quite a bit about Pei Ge’s experiences.

“Wake up, foolish young lady. Don’t torture yourself like this, and don’t let others bully you anymore.”

His words seemed to enlighten Pei Ge, and she became clear-headed.

However, although she understood the logic, she could not easily discard the decades’ worth of feelings she had.

“I understand.” She nodded her head at Mu Heng with a blossoming smile.

This man was actually not as bad as she thought him to be.

In fact, although his looks were frivolous and he seemed to always be up to no good, he was probably very, very kind...

Ji Ziming noted the way she smiled at his best friend and immediately felt displeased.

He took a few steps forward to block Mu Heng from her view and passed over some tissue to her. “You should wipe your face.”

“Mhm.” She nodded her head with a smile at Ji Ziming and then accepted the tissue from him.

Tsk, tsk, tsk... This passionate man is actually such a jealous and protective person!Mu Heng spat inside him when his best friend blocked him from the woman’s view.

“Don’t worry; this incident—” Ji Ziming was about to say something to comfort her and display his kind intention to her, but she mercilessly interrupted him.

“CEO Ji, let’s just put this incident behind us. You totally don’t need to take responsibility for this. It doesn’t have much to do with you, anyway,” she refused his offer with a polite smile.

“How is this not related to him?! He is the cause of this! Your cousin is head over heels for your CEO Ji. In the past, she even used the methods she used against you to deal with quite a few women around Ziming! Her methods were so cruel that one’s fingers would curl up in fright!” Mu Heng chimed in when he heard her words.

She was stunned by this information. Although she now had an idea of how spiteful her cousin could be, she did not expect her to be that petty.

“What do you want me to do, then?”
