Once she got home from sending Ji Ziming down, Pei Ge was interrogated by her curious mother.
âGe Ge, whatâs going on between you and Xiao Ji? How did you two get together all of a sudden?â Her mother held her hands and asked her this the minute she got home.
âI like him, and he likes me, so we got together,â she answered, smiling at her mother, clearly in a good mood.
Zhang Manhua shook her head wryly once she heard that, teasing, âReally? I wonder who told me that she doesnât like Xiao Ji and wonât ever get together with him.â
Pei Geâs face instantly turned crimson at that.
âMom, Iâm not talking to you anymore! Iâm tired, and Iâm going to bed! You sleep early, too!â
As she spoke, she ran back to her room to escape.
Bang! Noting her daughterâs shy expression, Zhang Manhua nodded and then held the family photo, which was on the coffee table.
âHubby, I think that weâll have grandchildren soon!â
Back in her room, Pei Geâs heart beat wildly.
She lay in her bed with a goofy smile.
Giggling to herself for a while, she took out her phone and sent a message to her close friend.
[Xiaoyu, from today onward, Iâm no longer single! I truly have a boyfriend now!]
She rolled around on her bed in joy after she sent the message.
âYou only need to know that I like you...
âI need you in my world...â
âAh!â
She burrowed into her blanket and screamed.
Just as she was in a state of extreme excitement, her phone rang.
When she heard her phone ring, she collected her emotions and peeked her head from the blanket.
Seeing the caller ID, she excitedly picked up her phone.
âHello, Xiaoyu!â
âPei Ge, is your relationship for real this time? Whoâs your boyfriend? Is it your CEO Ji?â
Immediately after she answered the call, Tang Xiaoyuâs excited voice came through.
âPfft! Bingo! You got that right! He confessed to me today.â She smugly told her.
âThat Ji Ziming confessed to you? Gosh! I really couldnât tell that heâs the type to confess first.â
âYeah! Not only that; his confession was way romantic. It felt like I was in a dream!â
She excitedly recounted that manâs fairytale-like, romantic confession without waiting for her friend to ask.
âD*mn! You really couldnât tell it! That prim and proper great CEO is actually capable of something like that... I guess you really canât judge a book by its cover!â she gushed, her voice full of envy.
âYeah! I was really shocked, too. I didnât expect him to do that for me.â The corners of her mouth upturned, and her face beamed with happiness.
âSay; do you think he loves me a lot?â
âEn! Do you even need to ask? If a man is willing to do that much for a woman, what can it be other than love? Heâs not a playboy.
âGiven his cold personality, itâs nearly impossible to believe that heâd prepare such a confession for you! Itâs true love, I say! Definitely true love!â
The smile on her lips widened when she heard her best friendâs analysis.
She hung up the phone after chatting with her best friend a little more.
[Are you home yet?]
After she hung up the phone, she checked the time, and seeing that it had almost been an hour since Ji Ziming left her place, she sent him a text.
A few seconds later, he replied.
[Almost. You go to bed first. Good night.]
When she saw how quickly he responded, she sent him a smiley emoticon.
[En, okay, good night.]
...
Looking at the text message from Pei Ge, Ji Zimingâs cold lips upturned into a warm smile.
Although it was rather late, he did not drive back to his apartment. Instead, he went to his familyâs villa.
âYoung master, what brings you here?â
âAre my parents asleep?â
âRecently, madam has been binge-watching a drama series, and sheâs making master watch it with her, so they havenât gone to sleep yet.â
After he got out of the car, he took quick strides toward the villa, and hearing the housekeeperâs reply to his question, he entered the house purposefully.
Opening the door to the audio-visual room on the first floor, his mouth twitched a little at the sight of his parents watch TV intimately.
âIâm pregnant with your child.â
âXiaoyu... how is that possible?! How can your child possible be mine?!â
âHave you forgotten? I was the one by your side that day you got drunk...â
â... Cough, cough, cough!â He coughed lightly to call the attention of his parents, who were both engrossed in what they were watching.
The light coughing made his parents realize that he was at home.
âMing Ming!â Seeing him, Mother Ji hurriedly turned on the lights and got up off the couch. She then rushed to her son, leaving her husbandâs side.
âWhat brings you home? Iâve missed you to death!â
She lunged toward her son, but he avoided it easily.
âDad, mom, Iâm here today because thereâs something that Iâd like to clarify with you.â
His gaze moved from his mother to his father.
âEn? What matter?â
She blinked in confusion, instinctively becoming more solemn when she saw how serious he was.
âI like Pei Ge, and sheâs the girl that Iâm dating with marriage in mind. I hope that you can accept her.â
His dark eyes were full of certainty, and as though making a promise, his cold, deep voice sounded with conviction.
âThatâs great! I absolutely agree for Ge Ge to be my daughter-in-law!â
She nodded vigorously and without hesitation at his declaration.
His motherâs answer was something he had expected. What he was waiting for was his fatherâs reply.
âDad, what about you?â
