Chapter 1892: I Want You For The Rest of My Life
“Any outcomes?”
Ji Ziming’s eyes darkened as his gaze became gentler. “Ge Ge, are you alright?”
“I’m fine.”
Pei Ge’s lips curled up and the determination in her eyes made Ji Ziming’s heart ache slightly. “Even if she doesn’t want to admit what she did in the past, so what? I still have evidence that makes her afraid to say another word. I still have you and those who care about me. I will never forgive her for what she did to my family.”
“Ge Ge, I support you. No matter what decision you make, I will always support you.”
His voice was gentle as he held her shoulders with one hand and opened the car door with the other.
“I’ll send you back first. I still have some business to handle at the company later. Can you go back first?”
“Ziming, I don’t want to go home. I want to visit my dad.”
Pei Ge got into the car and looked up at Ji Ziming. Her eyes were gentle and she teared up unknowingly.
Perhaps, it was because Pei Ge was already tearing when she walked out of the dark prison, or perhaps it was because she was already tearing from the moment she saw Old lady Qu, or perhaps it was because her eyes were always tearing from the start.
If she did not find the mastermind, she would not know that what was the reason for her father’s death.
“Okay, I’ll accompany you there.”
Ji Ziming’s voice was gentle as he gently placed Pei Ge’s hand on his lap. “Ge Ge, sit properly. I’ll bring you to see father now.”
Ji Ziming looked into Pei Ge’s eyes and spoke in a gentle voice. It was like a gentle breeze in the warm sun as it sat in front of Pei Ge. After such a long period of darkness, there was finally a gentleness that could make her stop. The motivation that she had been working hard and unwilling to stop finally came to an end with Old lady Qu.
“Ziming, I’m so tired.”
Pei Ge’s eyes were tired as she leaned against the back of the passenger seat.
“Don’t be afraid. You still have me. No matter what happens in the future, you will always have me by your side. No matter what happens in the future, you will always be my woman. I want you for the rest of my life.”
Ji Ziming half-squatted down and met Pei Ge’s eyes. His gaze became clearer and his voice gave her a greater sense of security. “Ge Ge, you have to keep my words to yourself. You have to remember that you are my woman. No one can bully you or disrespect you on my territory. This is my nature as a man and my promise to you.”
Ji Ziming’s eyes were serious as he looked at Pei Ge with determination.
“Ge Ge, do you believe me?”
Ji Ziming’s eyes were filled with anticipation, but when he saw that Pei Ge did not reply, he felt a little uneasy.
“Alright, I believe you.”
Seeing the man swear in front of her, her heart melted in the warm sun. Her lips curled into a bright smile.
“I’ll bring you to see our father now. He should have seen this day long ago. It’s not in vain that you planned so long to catch Old lady Qu.”
Ji Ziming stood up after saying this. Under the warm sunlight, his dark and long back view was actually covered by warmth on Pei Ge’s body. It was as though Pei Ge was a little person he, Ji Ziming, was protecting and living in his shadow.
However, no one could understand that when Pei Ge was in pain, Ji Ziming was in much more pain and discomfort than her. In this world, there were too few people who could empathize with her, but there were too many people who only smiled coldly at each other.
“Ziming, thank you for always being by my side. If it weren’t for you, I don’t even know if I’d be able to stay strong until now. If it weren’t for you, I think I...”
“Don’t say such things. You’re my woman, no one dares to disrespect you.”
Ji Ziming’s voice was filled with ruthlessness as he narrowed his eyes and looked in the direction of the prison where Old lady Qu was. His posture became even straighter.
“Ziming, I understand. Thank you.”
She looked at him with gentle eyes. Just looking into his eyes gave her a sense of security. This man had stood by her side for a long time in her life.
She had to live with this person forever.
“You’re thanking me again. We’re family. You’re always thanking me. Aren’t you afraid that one day...”
“I won’t say it anymore. I won’t say it again.”
She stuck out her tongue, her eyes revealing a hint of surprise. Her gaze on him became gentler and more dependent.
“That’s my woman, I’ll bring you to see father later.”
With that, he closed the door and walked to the driver’s seat.
The two of them sat in the car and did not speak. Pei Ge leaned against the seat and looked out of the car window quietly. The scenery that passed by quickly and the past that was still shining in her memories were slowly playing in her memory like a movie. The needle that had pierced Pei Ge’s heart for so many years could finally be pulled out and she returned the jab to Old lady Qu.
After so many years of stories, there was finally a perfect ending.
“Ziming, do you think there’s really a soul in this world? I heard that the soul stays at the place where there’s a knot in the heart and only leaves this world after it’s resolved. That’s why there are so many beautiful regrets in this world, and that’s why people miss those wishes that they didn’t have time to say.”
Pei Ge leaned back in her chair as the warmth in her palms slowly dissipated. The places that she looked at previously had turned cold.
“Do you believe it?”
Ji Ziming’s gaze was gentle and filled with doting.
“I believe it. That’s why I’ve always believed that my dad has never left me, so no matter what happens to me, I always wonder if my dad is just standing by my side, silently encouraging me. He would feel sad if I’m sad, and he would feel happy if I’m happy. Ziming, do you think I’ve never lost my father after all these years?”
Pei Ge turned to look at Ji Ziming.
