Provocative Fiery Wife: My Superior is an Affectionate Spitfire

Pei Ge alighted from the cab and looked at the small restaurant that she had not been to for so long.

The restaurant was still in business despite the many years that had passed; even its door sign had not changed.

"How nostalgic." Pei Ge looked at the shop with a sentimental smile and walked through its door.

Although its exterior did not change, its interior had quite a transformation.

Basically, except for the owner, everything else was different.

Pei Ge was slightly disappointed by its new look and began to feel uncertain about whether the food would taste the same as she remembered it or not.

"Waiter, please give me a bowl of beef noodles - big serving," Pei Ge ordered after occupying a seat by the window.

"Besides the beef noodles, is there anything else you'd like to order?" the waiter asked her with a smile.

Anything else?

Depressed, Pei Ge recalled how each time Zhou Zhuoyang accompanied her here, he would always order….

"A portion of edamame," she blurted out with some reluctance.

"Okay." The waiter nodded and jotted down her order.

She somewhat regretted ordering Zhou Zhuoyang's favorite side dish and wanted to cancel it, but upon seeing that the waiter had already taken note of her order, she dismissed the thought.

Forget it. It's not going to cost a lot, anyway, and this restaurant's edamame is really delicious.

The restaurant's business was still flourishing, and quite a crowd patronized it at lunchtime.

The bored Pei Ge observed the other restaurant diners as she waited for her order to arrive.

Seeing that many had a similar order to her, Pei Ge was assured that this restaurant's beef noodles were still as tasty as before.

As her eyes were shifting about, her hand phone suddenly rang.

She took it out and saw a message from an unknown number.

Eh? Whose number is this?

Curious, she opened the message.

[Don't waste the job; come back to work.]

When she read this message, for some inexplicable reason, she thought of Ji Ziming. Thinking of him, she was almost certain that the sender of the message was that man.

Only Ji Ziming would talk to her this way in the entire company.

Hmph! I won't go back!

Pei Ge pursed her lips, and just as she was about to put the phone aside, the other party unexpectedly sent another message. It was as though the sender had sensed that she would open the first message but would not respond to it.

Squinting at the phone notification for another message from the unknown number, Pei Ge decisively ignored it.

"Miss, your beef noodles and side dish are here." This was when the waiter placed her order on the table.

"Alright, thank you." Pei Ge smiled happily at the bowl of steaming beef noodles.

"You're welcome."

Pei Ge picked up the spoon, took a few sips of the hot soup, and then picked up the chopsticks to eat the beef noodles.

In the next instant, she was stunned by the taste of the beef noodles.

Her mouth chewed the fine noodles and swallowed them.

Suddenly, she felt lonely.

The taste of the beef noodles was still the same, yet she found that she no longer liked the beef noodles.

In the past, even without the company of Zhou Zhuoyang, she still enjoyed this restaurant's beef noodles.

At present, while the taste remained the same, it was no longer to her liking.

How long could one maintain the feeling of like?

Pei Ge's initial excitement sank in that instant.

She slowly ate the beef noodles and occasionally picked up some edamame.

She could no longer return….

Inexplicably, she felt like laughing despite her sadness.

"Boss, you should create a private room here."

"He he! Small shop, small shop. This place is too small, so I can't do it."

Pei Ge thought that she was hallucinating when she heard Zhou Zhuoyang's voice that was teasing the boss to open a private room just like in the past.

Thinking of this, she could not help but laugh as she shook her head. She then lowered her head again to continue eating the beef noodles.

She thought to herself, Why would Zhou Zhuoyang be here?

However, in the next instant, when a familiar woman's voice rang out, Pei Ge froze up.

"Zhuoyang, why did you insist on driving to this small restaurant to eat?"

Cousin?!

Pei Ge stopped moving the chopsticks in her hand.

"This restaurant's beef noodles are really delicious even after all these years. I found out that this restaurant is still doing business when I happened to pass by the other day. I went in and ate a bowl of noodles. Surprisingly, it tasted the same as before; it's still delicious," he explained gently. "When I drove by, I decided to bring you here and try the delicious beef noodles."

Pei Ge felt slightly awkward when she heard his explanation.

This restaurant was also introduced to her by Zhou Zhuoyang, and he gave her a similar explanation.

"Oh, I see." Pei Shishi was clearly not persuaded by his words. From her tone of voice, one could tell that she did not want to eat in this restaurant at all.

"Don't be like this. I promise that you won't regret coming to this restaurant with me after having a taste of that soup." He chuckled as he gently persuaded her cousin.

"Oh, alright." Her cousin finally agreed with a smile.

Hearing the two people's voices getting closer and closer, Pei Ge began to have an ominous feeling inside. Zhou Zhuoyang and Pei Shishi would not sit near her, right?

Ah!

Pei Ge, who had her head lowered as she ate the beef noodles, suddenly widened her eyes when she dejectedly thought of something.

How could she have forgotten such an important thing?!

Right now, she was sitting on her and Zhou Zhuoyang's favorite seat. Damn it! Why did she choose this seat earlier?!

However, that was not right! How would she know that, after all these years, the man would actually go here to eat, and it would be on the same day as her?

"Eh." The sight of someone else occupying his usual seat stunned him. When he walked a few more steps forward, he suddenly stopped and looked dazedly at the woman who was eating with her head lowered.

Why was she here? Why would she come to this restaurant that they used to frequent as a couple?

"What's wrong, Zhuoyang?" Gripping Zhou Zhuoyang's arm, Pei Shishi frowned when the man suddenly stopped his footsteps and lifted his head with eyes full of complicated emotions.

Following his gaze, her forehead creased deeply.

Pei Ge?

Feeling the burning gaze coming from behind her, Pei Ge did not feign ignorance and openly welcomed them.

"Cousin, what a coincidence to meet you again."
