“Miss Pei, we are here. Please get out of the car.”
While her mind was in a mess as she thought of the right thing to say before that man’s father, whose impression of her was bad, the car stopped in front of a luxurious villa.
As she was too caught up in her thoughts, she did not notice that they had arrived at the place.
“Ah? So fast!” she exclaimed involuntarily.
Zheng Yan noted her dazedness and could not help but think of his prideful young master’s choice.
Young master who insists on having the best actually... chose such an unimpressive woman. It’s truly shocking.
“Yes, Miss Pei. Please get out of the car. Master and madam are waiting for you inside.”
He stood at the door and bent slightly at the waist like an usher.
Clarity returned to her, and she unhurriedly alighted from the car.
Due to her nervousness, she did not even look at her surroundings and merely fixed her gaze forward as she followed the man into the aristocratic villa.
“Aiya! Ge Ge, you’re here!”
The moment she entered the villa, she felt the shift in the atmosphere as Mother Ji’s passionate voice echoed about.
The middle-aged madam’s voice effectively jolted her out of her trance.
“Good evening, auntie.” She softly greeted her.
“Aye! I say; Mingming’s father is too much. He had Xiao Zheng fetch you without informing me first, so I only found out just a while ago!” Mother Ji grinned at her, grabbing her wrists intimately.
Hearing that, she felt sure that this was an ambush of the treacherous party!
That must be it!
“Still, you can relax, Ge Ge. Since I’m here, he won’t dare to do anything, so you can be at ease!” The man’s mother smiled reassuringly at her.
“Mhm-kay.” Although she acknowledged her words, Pei Ge still could not help but feel nervous.
What is Ji Ziming’s father trying to do by inviting me to his house?
“Let’s go; let’s go. After working for the whole afternoon, you must be very hungry. Let’s have dinner first!”
With that, the middle-aged lady dragged her to the dining area.
Perhaps, because the man’s mother was guiding her, she felt a little more relaxed.
Passing by a black marble archway with sunflower embossing, they arrived at a huge, European-style, open dining area.
Clear floor-to-ceiling windows, intricately carved ceilings, and eye-catching crystal lights.
The entire dining area was painted dark brown. Coupled with the lavish furniture, everything looked more aristocratic.
“Come, Ge Ge. Sit here.” Mother Ji invited her to sit next to the main seat.
As for her, she occupied the opposite seat to hers.
Pei Ge’s brows moved ever so slightly. Looking at the empty main seat, her heart accelerated in anxiety.
“Ge Ge, auntie doesn’t know what you like to eat, so I just had the cooks prepare what we ate the last time,” the middle-aged lady gently said.
At this, she replied openly, “I like anything as long as it tastes good!”
“He he! Great, then! Great!” She nodded approvingly. Thereafter, she blinked and started whispering to her, as though confiding a secret.
“Ge Ge, what exactly happened yesterday?”
Noting her carefulness in broaching the topic, she could not help but find her amusing. She shook her head and explained, “Sigh. Actually, that’s truly a coincidence...”
She proceeded to recount in detail what had happened then to the middle-aged woman.
“So hateful! Those people went overboard! How could they say that about you?!” Mother Ji’s face morphed into an angry look after she was done with her explanation.
“Ge Ge, you’re also foolish! No matter how angry you were, you shouldn’t have said that to them! Weren’t you just confirming that you’re that type of person to them by doing that...” After expressing her dissatisfaction with that group of people, the man’s mother proceeded to reprimand her.
“And you were caught in the act by my husband, too. That’s truly...”
The middle-aged woman sighed at this point.
As they were speaking, a flurry of steps were heard making its way from the entrance to the dining area.
“Hubby, you’re here!” Hearing those steps, Mother Ji did not even raise her head and said that confidently.
“Mhm.”
For some reason, Pei Ge felt all her hair stand at this thick and low voice.
“This is Ge Ge – our son’s girlfriend!”
Mother Ji got up from her seat and introduced the two to each other.
“Ge Ge, this is your boyfriend’s father. Don’t think that he is stern from how he looks as he is in fact not.”
Pei Ge felt her nerves loosen slightly at her hinting. When she lifted her head at the middle-aged man, she was totally dumbfounded.
That was because he looked very much like his son! Other than their eyes, the rest of their face was a copy of each other. He was like the middle-aged version of that annoying fellow!
Hence... on her first meeting with the man’s father, she was grandly stunned.
“Cough, cough, cough!”
She only recovered herself once she heard his mother’s coughing.
“Hello, un-uncle! I’m Pei Ge. Th-This is our first meeting; I am glad to meet you!”
She hung her head low as she tripped over her words in her anxiety to greet him.
“Pfft!”
Mother Ji burst out laughing when she heard her greeting.
Meanwhile, Father Ji’s expression turned colder.
“It’s not my first time seeing you.”
