Chapter 19: Best Friend's Brother (19)
Ji Peicheng couldn’t understand Bai Qiuyi’s reasoning at all and when he heard her words, he was stunned. He paused and stared at her.
“I don’t have a daughter as old as you.”
He could accept her calling him brother, but father was too much. Was she saying he looked old?
Bai Qiuyi blinked: “Godfather~”
“…” Ji Peicheng looked at her with a look of helplessness. “My name is Ji Peicheng.”
Bai Qiuyi: “Darling~”
Ji Peicheng’s whole body went numb because of her soft words.
He gulped, and asked. “Your name.”
“Bai Qiuyi.”
Ji Peicheng took out his phone and swiped it to turn on the screen, “Your phone number.”
Bai Qiuyi reported her number.
Ji Peicheng typed in the phone and dialed out.
As a result… of course the phone didn’t ring.
Bai Qiuyi’s phone was placed in the system space at this time. She spent one point for it.
It’s not that Bai Qiuyi didn’t want it close, but the dress she wore yesterday didn’t allow her to.
Ji Peicheng might have thought of this too, and quietly hung up the phone without asking why Bai Qiuyi’s phone didn’t ring.
“I have to go to work, so I’m leaving first.” Ji Peicheng put his phone in his trouser pocket and looked at Bai Qiuyi. “You didn’t sleep much last night, so take a longer rest today. If you’re hungry, call the service and ask for lunch.”
“Okay.” Bai Qiuyi was really sleepy, and when he said ‘rest’, she became even sleepier.
At this time, her whole body was buried under the quilt, only her little face was showing. Her sleepy eyes, her body curled up on her side, and with only half of her body showing, she looked very cute.
Ji Peicheng looked at her rosy face, rubbed his hands in his trouser pockets, then turned and left without doing anything.
After only a few steps, he stopped and turned around. “Remember to buy medicine.”
It seemed that he was worried that Bai Qiuyi wouldn’t understand, so he added. “Birth control pills.”
“Okay.” Bai Qiuyi’s reply was well-behaved but she didn’t plan to listen to him.
After all, the system had a built-in contraceptive function. As long as she didn’t want to get pregnant, she couldn’t get pregnant.
She cheered herself up and looked at Ji Peicheng, why didn’t he leave yet? She was too sleepy.
Although she wanted him to leave quickly in her heart, in order to strengthen their relationship, Bai Qiuyi put on a reluctant look on her face.
Ji Peicheng, who usually did things neatly, walked back without hesitation, sat down by the bed and touched Bai Qiuyi’s face. Her skin was smooth and tender to the touch, and he petted her head, about to repeat “rest well, you can call me”, but Bai Qiuyi spoke before him. “Doesn’t this look like a dog and owner’s bonding time?”
Then Ji Peicheng didn’t want to say anything after that.
He had never met anyone who could spoil the atmosphere quicker than Bai Qiuyi.
When he left, Bai Qiuyi immediately closed her eyes, silently judging Ji Peicheng’s behavior just now.
Rubbing her check against the pillow, ready to burrow and sleep…
She suddenly remembered something, and checked how Ji Peicheng liked her.
Seeing the eighth hearts of favor, Bai Qiuyi was surprised.
Wasn’t this too easy, too fast?
After all, Ji Peicheng and Zhang Tianliang cases were completely different.
When she arrived, Zhang Tianliang’s favorability was at six hearts, and she was not surprised to find that it had increased by two hearts in one night, reaching eight hearts.
But Ji Peicheng straight up lit up eight hearts in one night. Bai Qiuyi actually couldn’t understand this very well. It may also be because she had little knowledge, after all, she’d never receive a task to make someone fall in love with her.
Bai Qiuyi didn’t get too entangled in this problem, and took out the phone from the system space.
After going shopping yesterday, she visited her family’s home.
It was not because she missed her parents or something, but because if she and Zhang Tianliang stayed under the same roof it was not convenient to attack Ji Peicheng.
Bai Qiuyi flipped through her phone. Before entering Sheng Hao last night, she’d sent a ‘good night’ message to Zhang Tianliang and stopped looking at her phone.
Zhang Tianliang had sent three messages back.
«Going to bed so early?»
«I have a lot of work today so I may work overtime until very late.»
«Good night.»
There was no need to think about it. Bai Qiuyi knew who
this overtime was referring to.He must have gone to Ji Yan.
Bai Qiuyi wondered with some interest, if Zhang Tianliang knew that when he was fooling around with Ji Yan, his wife was busy putting a cuckold on him, and would he be pissed off?
After randomly editing a message and sending it, Bai Qiuyi threw the phone aside and wrapped herself in a blanket.
When she woke up, it was almost twelve in the afternoon.
Bai Qiuyi didn’t get up immediately, but clicked on WeChat.
There were a few messages from Zhang Tianliang, and a friend request with a message.
The stranger had written: “The bank card password is six zeros.”
Bai Qiuyi knew this was Ji Peicheng.
To be honest, when the man gave her the card, she didn’t even stop to think about the password.
Bai Qiuyi wasn’t in a hurry to accept the friend request, after all, she shouldn’t have her mobile phone with her at this time.
Even though Ji Peicheng didn’t necessarily know that she hadn’t left the room, Bai Qiuyi was still unwilling to make him suspicious.
After washing up, and ordering a meal, Bai Qiuyi put on the clothes brought by Ji Peicheng, and then took the clothes she had worn when entering the room last night, now cleaned and bagged by the hotel staff, and went downstairs.
After getting into the taxi, Bai Qiuyi accepted Ji Peicheng’s friend request and wrote: «Darling~ I'm home.»
After that, she replied to a message from Zhang Tianliang. When she was done, she saw Ji Peicheng’s reply.
“Hmm.” He wrote back.
It was simple, almost cold.
If she didn’t know that this person's affection for her had reached eight hearts, Bai Qiuyi would have thought that he had only a slight affection for her.
After thinking about it, Bai Qiuyi didn’t send any more messages.
Later she’ll be very busy. She needed to check her future house.
While she was eating in the hotel just now, Bai Qiuyi contacted the real estate agency, planning to rent a house.
Yesterday, when she visited her family, she realized how inconvenient it was to live there.
After all, she was not the original owner, and she couldn’t completely copy the other party in terms of behavior. Therefore, when facing the parents who gave birth to the original owner, knowing they were very familiar with the original owner, she had to be careful at all times. This was very tiresome.
There was another reason, and that was that she needed to report her whereabouts to the elders when she went out at night, which was the same as when she was at her husband’s house.
Bai Qiuyi felt that this was very troublesome, so in order to avoid unnecessary troubles, she had to rent a house.
