“Are you tired?”

The man’s question struck Pei Ge dumb.

Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh?! Ji Ziming is asking me if I’m tired?! It’s scary!

Ji Ziming coughed awkwardly upon seeing her expression that seemed more apt for someone who had seen a ghost.

“Cough! Didn’t you say you can’t walk properly while wearing such high stilettos?” he coldly reminded her.

Oh, oh, oh! Turns out he’s not worried about me but only wants to interrogate me!

“It is truly hard to walk in these, but we have our urgent businesses, and I can’t possibly pee in my gown, right?” She was never a graceful woman, especially when faced with his ‘interrogation’, so she did not bother phrasing her words in a less vulgar manner and bluntly gave him this answer.

His eyebrows twitched ever so slightly at that before he nodded his head lightly.

“If there is nothing wrong with you, then follow me—” She interrupted his words with a shriek.

“Ouch!” She seemed to be in pain.

He immediately tensed up at her painful cry, but before he could say anything in comfort, she started speaking.

“CEO Ji, I seem to have squatted in the toilet for too long that I’m now having leg cramps. I’m afraid I can’t continue accompanying you in this banquet with how terrible I feel. I think…” She peeked at the man, and when she saw that he did not seem angry, she mustered up her courage and suggested, “I think I should get off work now.”

He saw the way her dark, doe eyes turned in their sockets and immediately deduced that she was lying.

However, on this rare occasion, CEO Ji, who hated being lied at, only thought that she was extremely adorable for wanting to skive off work and go home.

“Oh? You squatted for too long?” He raised an eyebrow and looked at her agreeably.

She nodded her head vigorously and said pitifully, “Yes, CEO Ji. I’m sorry…”

Ji Ziming could not control his laughter when he saw how engrossed she was with her acting.

“The washrooms here all seem to be the sitting type. You…” With an eyebrow raised and a ghost of a smile, he softly asked, “How did you manage to squat on the toilet seat? I am quite curious now.”

“…” She instantly froze at his probing words. She silently imagined herself squatting on the toilet seat, and ten thousand mud horses instantly galloped past her heart.

What the heck?! Sh*t! I actually treated the washrooms here as similar to the ones found in normal restaurants! Now, I’ve really lost all my face!

“What’s wrong? Are your feet hurting?” He watched her face turn red when her lie was exposed and feigned ignorance with a chuckle.

“CEO Ji, I – I…” She worked her brain to the fullest, wanting to salvage her broken lie.

This was when she felt someone hug her waist and lift her off the ground.

“AH!” she shrieked in surprise and reflexively hugged the nearest thing to her.

She felt someone’s hot breath fanning her from above and heard someone’s steady heartbeat thumping beside her ear.

She raised her head in a daze and was immediately met with Ji Ziming’s chiseled jawline.

“CEO – CEO – CEO Ji?! Quick – Quickly let me down!” She belatedly realized that he was carrying her and she was clinging on to his neck. They looked extremely intimate this way.

“Hm? Didn’t you say you are having leg cramps?” He lowered his head to look at the profusely blushing woman in his arms and lightly asked.

Pei Ge wanted to rage so much right now that she became speechless.

This annoying fellow clearly knows that I lied and there’s no such thing as me having leg cramps, yet he is still trying to plug my mouth with my words.

“I’m not having leg cramps, so you can put me down! Everyone is looking at us!” Although she was being carried by him, she was not blind to the surrounding crowd’s fervent gazes on them.

“What does it matter if others are looking at us? You are my girlfriend,” he reasoned while looking at the abashed her.

She, who was in the middle of struggling in his arms, instantly froze up at his words.

She did not expect him to say such words.

“Wahhh! CEO Ji actually has this romantic side!”

“Agree; agree! He didn’t even hesitate in carrying her like that in public, and it is a princess-carry to boot! I really envy his girlfriend!”

“Young Master Ji is actually this loving when in a relationship! I really regret not chasing after him in school back then!”

“This scene is so beautiful. Too bad I don’t have my phone with me; otherwise, I’ll be taking lots of pictures of it right now!”

…

She no longer paid any heed to the crowd’s murmurings, as every fiber of her being was focusing on Ji Ziming right now. She heard his strong heartbeat, felt his light breathing, and saw his handsome face.

Despite knowing that he was only faking it, she felt that she was about to drown in the pinkish atmosphere he had ‘created’.

However, the loser that she was, her heart still accelerated for him.

He saw the woman gaze at him foolishly and chuckled. He then left the still ongoing banquet with her in his arms.

“Mr. Ji, let us send down your and this miss’s outer coats for you.” The man, who had previously opened the door for them, respectfully offered when they appeared to be leaving the banquet.

Ji Ziming lightly nodded his head and hummed in reply.

Ding!

She only regained her senses when they were in the elevator.

“CEO Ji, I actually lied to you just then; my legs aren’t cramping at all, so you can put me down. I will walk by myself,” she admitted to him with burning cheeks.

“You lied to me?” He feigned surprise with a raised eyebrow.

He was usually stingy with his expression, but when it came to her, his face would generously display a variety of expressions.

She was momentarily made speechless by his ignorant act. She glared at him and said seriously, “CEO Ji, please let me get down.”

Why do I feel that this annoying fellow is teasing me? Mhm! I must be overthinking! This poker-faced, temperamental man can’t possibly have such a wicked sense of humor! I am definitely overthinking things!
