Chapter 1803: These Noodles Taste Better than Mine

“How can I not remember you? You’ve almost finished all the eggs my old hen laid. If you don’t come and see me, I’ll miss you a little.”

Uncle Bai smiled kindly as he looked at Pei Ge tenderly. “It’s been a long time since you last came. You even brought someone here. Who is this handsome young man?”

“I’m her husband.”

Ji Ziming raised his head and looked at Uncle Bai coldly.

“I see. Little lass, you’re already married. You didn’t even give Uncle Bai any wedding candy. That’s your fault. Uncle Bai doesn’t have anything good to eat here. Now that you’re here, I want to think of what to make for you two.”

Uncle Bai looked at Pei Ge and Ji Ziming with a kind expression before turning around to put the eggs in his bowl.

“Uncle Bai, we don’t want anything. We just want two servings of vegetables and egg noodles.”

She looked inside.

“You guys, sit properly. Uncle Bai knows what to cook for you guys. Just focus on eating later.”

After a while, Uncle Bai came over with two bowls of vegetables and egg noodles, and a plate of pickled vegetables.

The person’s face became clearer and clearer in the white mist.

She looked at him and said, “Try it and see how it tastes.”

“Did you come here often to eat?”

“No, I used to come here often, but after I left the country, I rarely came, so…”

Pei Ge explained softly as she looked into Ji Ziming’s deep eyes with her beautiful eyes. “Ziming, give it a try. Uncle Bai’s cooking is really good.”

“Okay. I like the smell too. Let me try.”

Ji Ziming nodded and his eyes darkened. He watched the noodles in the bowl inhale the fragrance of the noodles and it seeped into his heart. Although it could not compare to the abundant fish and meat in the past, it was still very exquisite.

“Not bad, these noodles are better than mine.”

Ji Ziming nodded and praised Uncle Bai.

“Of course. Uncle Bai’s noodles are not for just anyone.”

Pei Ge raised her head proudly and looked into Ji Ziming’s eyes. “Try this pickled vegetable now. It’s Uncle Bai’s special dish and can’t be bought outside.”

“Okay.”

Ji Ziming picked up a mouthful and stuffed it into his mouth. The taste of the pickled vegetables and noodles were especially delicious.

“Given Uncle Bai’s cooking, he can really open a shop.”

“Do you think it’s for you to eat alone? Uncle Bai opens the store based on his mood.”

Pei Ge explained with a smile, but Uncle Bai, who was standing at the side, shook his head and waved his hands. He did not really let his mood decide and merely wanted to earn a living.

When Ji Ziming and Pei Ge were done eating and drinking in Uncle Bai’s shop, they drove back to the Ji Group. The company was in an orderly and quiet state, as though a storm was coming.

“Ge Ge, how long more do you think it will take to see them?”

“It won’t be long.”

Ji Ziming and Pei Ge stood in the elevator and were calculating the time the Qu Group would cause a ruckus at Ji Group when Ji Ziming reached the top floor and walked out of the elevator. “Just nice.”

The moment he finished speaking, the phone of the secretary, who was sitting at the desk outside the CEO’s office, rang. It sounded especially ear-piercing in this quiet space.

“CEO, they’re all here for you…”

When the secretary picked up the call, it was all the subordinates calling to ask Ji Ziming for a solution. Qu Group had too many people and He Yun was put in a spot by Qu Group, which had many people. He could neither retreat nor enter.

He seemed to be on the defensive. Even simply entering the room, he would be pushed to the side by a group of uncles and grandpas, as if they were afraid that He Yun would run away.

“I say you guys, I only bought some of your Qu family’s shares. Do you really need to push our Ji Group to this extent?”

“Hey, Old Dong, Grandpa, that bonsai is very expensive. Don’t move!”

“Uncle, if you touch me like this again, I’ll think that you’re interested in me. My sexual orientation is normal, okay?”

…

Ji Ziming did not go downstairs but pulled Pei Ge back to the office. The two sat on the sofa and let the phone on the table ring for a long time.

“Ziming, are you not picking up?”

Pei Ge looked at the documents in her hands. Although the noise from the employees could not be heard, the phone was ringing from the secretary’s call. Only the secretary’s phone could be connected.

“No, but you can remove the phone line.”

He frowned and narrowed his eyes at her. “How about we give it a try?”

“Are you crazy? It’s fine if you don’t pick up the phone, but you actually came up with such a vicious move. Just let the phone ring. At this time, the people from Qu Group are probably even more anxious than the person who hasn’t appeared yet.”

“That’s why you’re very good at this. You managed to infiltrate the Qu Group.”

Ji Ziming looked at Pei Ge with admiration and continued, “Ge Ge, sometimes, I really think that you are a very capable woman, but sometimes, I feel that you are just a little woman who needs someone to protect you. Although you are silly, you are still very cute.”

“Can I despise you?”

She rolled her eyes and her eyes shone at him.

“No, because I am Ji Ziming and you are my woman.”

Ji Ziming laughed as he looked at Pei Ge’s bright eyes. The phone not far away from him was also violently resisting on the table, as though it was trying to stop the two from falling in love.

Unfortunately, everything was useless.

Ji Ziming and Pei Ge got closer. Just as their lips were about to touch, Ji Ziming’s phone rang. It was He Yun’s emergency call.

“CEO, why aren’t you coming to save me? I’m about to become a hornet’s nest in the eyes of these people. Stop thinking about flirting with Madam and quickly come down to save me.”

He Yun’s voice was hurried, and the surrounding noise made it clear that the Qu Group people who ‘escorted’ He Yun back hated Ji Ziming for interfering in Qu Group’s matters.

Ji Ziming merely spent a little bit of money to get one of the most unpopular directors of Qu Group to join under Pei Ge’s name.
