Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
He looked at the parasol tree in front of him that seed to still have a trace of blood aura.
“Did you sll anything in the air?”
Ji Ziming narrowed his eyes. Based on his intuition, he knew that there must be soone guarding the camphor forest, but he was not sure if there were more people there than the bodyguards in his villa.
Acting rashly would only cause greater casualties.
Although the camphor tree had a strong sll, Ji Ziming could still sll the faint sll of blood. If he could, he would be able to see Xu Yansong squatting on the tree trunk in his light green clothes.
If Ji Ziming walked another three ters, he would be able to see the injured Xu Yansong.
“Alright, bring so people to see if there are any other trees. I want to ensure that person’s safety.”
Ji Ziming’s voice was cold as he looked at the camphor tree behind it.
“Yes, CEO.”
The leader of the bodyguards broke out in a cold sweat. He did not know when people had co to this villa. The security asures here had always been the best. It was even more superior than the Ji family’s villa in the middle of the capital city and worth living in safely.
Now that sothing like this had happened, she did not know if she should say that the bodyguards had failed their duty or that Ji Ziming did not care.
After receiving Ji Ziming’s instructions, he brought the rest of the bodyguards to inspect the sycamore trees in the backyard. The speed of the bodyguards was fast and it was not difficult for them to climb up the trees and walls. The only thing that made Ji Ziming feel regretful was that before he and Pei Ge could enter the house, the leader of the bodyguards had already inspected all the suspicious items that could be installed with caras.
In fact, when the leader of the bodyguards discovered the cara, he had already ordered his n to survey the surroundings of the villa, but they did not find anything suspicious.
“So fast?”
Ji Ziming looked at the bodyguard chief standing in front of him. It had only been ten minutes since he gave the order, so he could not help but doubt his capabilities.
“Have you seen the camphor forest at the back wall of the courtyard?”
Pei Ge turned around. Based on her intuition as a woman, she could even see a color that did not belong to the camphor tree.
“No need.”
He pulled her hand and led her into the house without another word.
“There must be soone in that camphor forest.”
The mont they entered the house, he voiced her doubts.
“Then why don’t you let them take a look? What if the person who installed the cara is in that tree?”
Pei Ge was even more nervous. Ever since Qu Xiujie appeared in their sight, they had not really enjoyed themselves for a day. Instead, all sorts of accidents happened around them.
“Don’t worry, that person is injured.”
Ji Ziming looked at Pei Ge with his deep eyes, which confused her even more.
“He’s injured. Hurry up and go...”
“There’s no hurry. That person won’t be able to get down the mountain today.”
Ji Ziming walked to the side of the coffee table and poured himself a cup of tea. The green tea leaves swayed in the white porcelain cup, and the green tea gave off the sll of morning tea in this huge space.
“Don’t be anxious. When I went out just now, I had already activated the safety settings outside the villa. Unless he’s a bird, it’s impossible for him to return safely to the foot of the mountain in this camphor forest. Even an expert would be severely injured.”
The confidence on his face made her heart drop again.
“So you just did that to the bodyguard chief...”
Pei Ge understood that even if the bodyguard chief did not do anything, the villa’s defense system was still very powerful.
“Yes, exactly what you think. So don’t worry, I’m here.”
Ji Ziming poured a cup of tea for Pei Ge and ruffled her hair as he said in a low voice, “Do you want a cup of green tea? The new tea that was delivered yesterday slls really good...”
Ji Ziming deliberately stopped talking and moved closer to Pei Ge’s ear. The mist that gushed out almost made her ears turn red. “Of course, it doesn’t sll as good as you.”
“You’re being indecent again.”
Pei Ge pushed Ji Ziming, who was sitting on the sofa, away. No matter where she was, Ji Ziming would always think of teasing her heart. The thumping of her heart carried a hint of fear from being frightened by the caras earlier.
“Don’t be afraid. I’m here. I won’t let you get hurt.”
He spoke in a frivolous tone, yet he was being honest with her. The light in his eyes shone even brighter under the chandelier overhead.
“I know.”
She lowered her head and took the cup of tea from him.
As expected, it was a new tea. The mont it entered his mouth, he could feel the fragrance of the tea. It left behind a rare mory in his mouth. It was like the decadence of flowers in spring, bringing with it the fragrance of fresh flowers and the fragrance of the tea itself.
It was indeed good tea.
“How is it?”
Ji Ziming’s lips curled up as he watched Pei Ge pour herself another cup.
“I think it’s very delicious. It has a hint of the vicissitudes of old tea when compared to new tea. It’s also more fresh than old tea.”
She tasted it very seriously. Even Ji Ziming did not taste it this way.
“Not bad, you know a lot.”
Ji Ziming rested his hands on the sofa, thinking that if Pei Ge did not like it, he would have other types of tea leaves.
“A little. I drank the tea and the matter is settled. Don’t you want to go upstairs to check on Qu Xiujie?”
Ji Ziming’s eyes darkened when she ntioned the main point.
“Do you believe that?”
Ji Ziming asked simply, thinking that if Pei Ge was unwilling to believe it, he would not let Qu Xiujie stay here.
“What about you?”
Pei Ge did not know what to do, but when Qu Xiujie told her about the past, she seed to rember it in her mind. It was just that her mory was too plain and she could not even rember it clearly.
“If you don’t believe , I’ll find evidence to shut this liar up. If you do, I’ll listen to you.”
His voice was cold as he gave Pei Ge the initiative.
“I want to hear him continue. Although I don’t wish to be part of the Qu family and hate Qu Jingwan, Qu Qingyu, and even Old lady Qu, I don’t hate Qu Xiujie that much. I really want to see what he’s up to.”
