Chapter 1582: Win her smile...

The car reached the hospital at the fastest speed. When Joe received a call from Pei Ge, he did not leave the hospital. Instead, he hid in an inconspicuous corner with a few security officers, waiting to arrest people.
What they did not expect, though, was that the person chasing after them was none other than Gu Zhengrong.
“Why are you here?!”
Pei Ge stood at the entrance of the hospital and watched the guy alight from his car. Clad in a black suit, he was like a lurking, evil apparition at night.
“I wanted to call you, but you two drove off the moment you saw my car, so I could only chase after you.”
He looked aggrieved, hurt by her open ridicule of him.
“You could’ve called; I’d have answered your call, so why...”
Pei Ge felt uncomfortable because of his action; this had truly made her somber.
Ji Ziming looked coldly at the other man. His position from atop the stairs made him seem like a ruler who was looking down at his subject. If he willed it, he could send this guy straight to prison for harassment. However, with his woman needing this guy’s help to locate her best friend, he gave up such a thought.
“Mr. Ji, I know that you are very capable and can find anyone you want. Then, are you able to help me find where my girlfriend is right now?”
Gu Zhengrong stepped forward, and the initial five meters of distance between them became smaller as he looked tauntingly at him.
“I’ll definitely help Pei Ge find her best friend, but as her boyfriend, isn’t it too late to admit that she’s missing now?”
At this time, the hospital was already closed with most of its staff off-duty. If it were not for Pei Ge’s call, Joe would have been lying on the bar’s bench with Korean and Japanese girls on each hand by now.
“You! What do you mean by this?”
The other did not expect Ji Ziming to mock him openly, seemingly having forgotten that he was the one who had let his girlfriend down. If the couple had not gone to the US to find Tang Xiaoyu, he would have still been busy with work, not knowing how his girlfriend was living her life.
“Don’t you understand what I’m talking about?”
The man sneered. He could not help but ‘see this guy in a new light’.
If he were this guy’s girlfriend, he would leave him, too. Thus, he was in full support of her leaving this useless fellow rather than staying.
“Don’t think you’re mighty just because of your upbringing; you don’t understand me at all...”
The other glowered at him as though looking at an enemy he had not seen for a long time.
“That’s right. I don’t understand the point of having a boyfriend like you.”
He bluntly stated, eliciting laughter in everyone and causing the other guy to be the focus of those nearby.
“Don’t go overboard!”
Gu Zhengrong was completely antagonized by the man’s statement. If he had a choice, he wished that the person standing beside Pei Ge was him and not this man.
“I didn’t; I won’t bully a person like you. In any case, Pei Ge is my wife, so please stay away from her. Otherwise...”
Ji Ziming’s eyes darkened, causing the latter to feel fearful. “If you don’t, I’ll make your life difficult. In case that you don’t believe me, you can give it a try. Who knows? Maybe I’ll do something beyond your imagination!”
He narrowed further. The traffic lights painted his face red and made him look like a demon from hell.
“Well, I know what kind of person you are and that I can’t beat you. I won’t haggle with you, but since Pei Ge chose you and not me, I’ll respect her decision. I’ll look for you guys tomorrow just to talk about my girlfriend’s matter.”
The other did not wish to argue with him further. Perhaps it was because Pei Ge no longer belonged to him, while his biggest support had gone missing.
Perhaps, he had no right to choose what he should be standing by all along, be it his partner or the woman right before him.
“You have news about her?”
Pei Ge was anxious. If this guy really had news about her best friend, perhaps him stalking them would come to an end.
“Yes.”
Gu Zhengrong’s eyes brightened as he looked at her with a smile. “There’s once when I managed to get through her phone.”
“Did she pick up?”
She could not wait, her beautiful eyes becoming filled with Tang Xiaoyu’s silhouette.
“She picked up and said ‘hello’, sounding normal. She wasn’t kidnapped like what you’re thinking. It could be seen that she’s in a safe place, so you could stop worrying about her.”
He seemed to be enjoying her facial expression. Even though it might be difficult for him to get over her, as long as she wanted something, he was willing to try and win her smile.
“That’s good; that’s good.”
Pei Ge could finally feel relieved. She could finally reassure her mother that Tang Xiaoyu was safe.
“Are you sure that the person is my best friend?”
Ji Ziming frowned, slightly doubtful of this guy’s words. In fact, the latter did lie. Not only did he not call his girlfriend, he hung up even before the automated voice could sound. That was because Pei Ge was calling at that time.
“I’m certain because I know her well. Even if it’s just her shadow or she’s in disguise, I can still recognize her.” To regain Pei Ge’s trust, he could only keep lying despite his unwillingness to do so, simply because he wanted to make her smile.
“Regarding Tang Xiaoyu’s matters, Pei Ge has me and I’ll definitely give her an answer. I will no longer say that you’ve been following us on purpose, but please leave and go back to where you came from.”
The man chased him away, but the latter did not budge; even the way he looked at Pei Ge had not changed.
“Don’t worry; I’ll leave. I just hope that you’ll treat her well as I don’t wanna see her hurt or sad again.”
