Chapter 1864 - You Must Believe That I Am Right Behind You

If it was not for her, this situation would not have happened.

“Ge Ge, do you hate her? This woman ruined your family and caused uncle to die so unjustly, causing you to leave the capital for so long. Don’t you hate her? This woman is so vicious and her heart is so evil.”

Tang Xiaoyu’s voice was soft as she looked at Pei Ge with even more heartache.

“If this woman can experience what others have, she would have died more than a hundred times. I really don’t know how Old master Qu fell in love with such a bad woman.”

“No matter what this woman does, I don’t want her to die now. If she dies now, then all the pain and grievances I’ve suffered over the years will have to go to waste.”

Pei Ge’s eyes were cold as she looked at the lights in the living room.

“Ge Ge, ever since you found out about uncle’s death, you haven’t been living well. It’s been so many years. If Ji Ziming wasn’t by your side, I think you might not have been able to hold on, but I don’t want you to be unable to hold on. You’re my best friend and my closest friend. Ge Ge, promise me that no matter what this Old lady Qu will do, you’ll be fine. You have to be happier with Ji Ziming.”

“Xiaoyu, don’t worry. I, Pei Ge, am not someone who can be easily defeated. This Old lady Qu has her own retribution. I will find an opportunity to visit her.”

Pei Ge’s lips curled up slightly as she turned to look at Tang Xiaoyu. Her face was still pale and sickly.

“Xiaoyu, what you said earlier was wrong. You’ve been by my side for so many years, not Ji Ziming. To me, you’re even more important than Ji Ziming because we’re a family. No matter what the reason is, we’ll never be separated, so you have to promise me that no matter what happens in the future, you have to tell me. You have to believe that I’m right behind you, right behind you, to be your strongest support.”

Pei Ge held Tang Xiaoyu’s hand. The two women stood in the cold wind while Ji Ziming’s handmade Italian suit fell to the ground. It seemed to be the most suitable scenery for the scene.

“I understand. I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have misunderstood you. I shouldn’t have returned to America without contacting you.”

Tang Xiaoyu’s eyes lost their brightness as she lowered her head slightly. The crescent moon in the sky actually became brighter in her eyes.

“Xiaoyu, I don’t blame you. If I were you, I might have done the same. One is my best friend, and the other is the man I love the most. I don’t think I’m any more rational than you. I’m just regretful that I didn’t tell you all of this earlier. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have specially returned from America to the capital to avoid me.”

The thought of Tang Xiaoyu living on her territory with her baby made her feel sad, but this sadness did not make her think of how Gu Zhengrong would feel if he found out that she was a father.

“Xiaoyu, I’ll send someone to send you home later. It’s getting late; you shouldn’t stay in the cold.”

Pei Ge touched Tang Xiaoyu’s face. It was colder than her bare shoulders.

“I’m fine. I just feel bad when I think that you still have to wait for Old lady Qu’s judgment here. I wasn’t by your side when you needed me the most.”

Tang Xiaoyu raised her head and looked at Pei Ge with eyes filled with coldness and heartache.

“Don’t worry, Xiaoyu. Even if you’re not by my side right now, I know that you’ll always be by my side, so I won’t mind. I know that in this world, there’s a silly girl. In order to make my life better, no matter what happens to her, she won’t tell me. Thinking of this makes me feel even worse, you silly girl.”

Pei Ge held Tang Xiaoyu’s hand tightly and looked into her eyes, feeling even more guilty.

“Ge Ge, you’ve been in the capital for so long. When I returned from America, I knew that your life is getting better and better. Everyone knows that Ji Ziming has such a strong woman by his side. I know that it’s you, and I envy you. I also know how much pain you are in right now.”

Tang Xiaoyu thought of the pain Pei Ge had gone through in her life and could not help but feel ridiculous for being cold to her.

They were such good friends, yet she could not fight against the suspicion in her heart. If there was really a medicine for regret in this world, Tang Xiaoyu would definitely look for it.

“Silly girl. We’ll all get better.”

Pei Ge looked at Tang Xiaoyu with a hint of gentleness in her eyes. No matter how she looked at it, this silly girl was still the same as before. She could not understand why Gu Zhengrong would hurt such a girl.

“Ge Ge, I envy you for being able to survive all these unfair treatment. If it was me...”

“If it was you, you would do better than me, because I am you.”

Pei Ge’s eyes were calm as she looked at Tang Xiaoyu with even more trust.

“Perhaps. Perhaps, I’ll really do it well. Ge Ge, I’m sorry, but you still have to let me apologize. I haven’t looked for you for such a long time, so I really haven’t thought things through. Now that I’ve come to look for you, it means that I’ve really thought things through. Ge Ge, believe me, I’m still the same Tang Xiaoyu from before. I’ll still support you as always.”

Tang Xiaoyu nodded and looked at Pei Ge with even more trust.

“I know. I know you’ll always be there for me. It’s been so many years, and our relationship has been able to withstand any kind of push, I believe.”

Pei Ge’s lips curled into a gentle smile as she looked at Tang Xiaoyu with even more gentleness in her eyes. “Xiaoyu, don’t you believe that we’ve been best friends for so many years?”

“I believe you. I really believe you, so no matter what happens in the future, I’ll believe you. I really have to go back now. I’ve been out for a long time. Ge Ge, I really envy you. You’ve already done very well. I want to be like you. Am I very depraved like this?”

Tang Xiaoyu looked into Pei Ge’s eyes and could not explain why.

“How can someone like you be depraved? You don’t know how outstanding you are in my heart. You’re even more outstanding than I imagined.”
