Chapter 1327 - Your daddy is not married into our family yet!
Chapter 1327: Your daddy is not married into our family yet!
“Wifey, what love-filled lunch did you make for me?”
Pei Ge’s face reddened even more at his words.
Her bright, watery eyes looked at Ji Ziming in shock. She had never expected him to say something like that, and that he would call her... wifey.
“Wifey?”
He called her that way again when he saw her looking shocked, but compared to his teasing tone before, it was more loving this time around.
“W-What are you saying? I haven’t even married you yet!”
Recovering from her shock, she rolled her eyes at the man and proceeded to serve him a bowl of soup from the tray.
“Here. This isn’t a love-filled lunch but just a simple bowl of soup.”
She acted nonchalant when she passed the soup to him.
Little did she know that she would be exposed by her children again.
“It is!”
The children pointed at the soup and ‘complained’ at the man eagerly.
“Mommy prepared this soup for so long, and she even put a lot of ingredients in it. It’s so special that we aren’t allowed to drink it as well!”
“That’s right! I’ve never seen her prepare a meal for anyone, let alone make a soup so seriously, before!”
She seriously thought that she had been raising two spies.
She had yet to tell these two that this man was their real father, yet they were already starting to sell her out.
“You guys, just great. Now that you have your daddy, you don’t want your mommy anymore!”
Arms akimbo, she scolded them.
Seeing her glaring at them, the children smilingly held their father’s arms as they hid behind him. They appeared to be undaunted by their mother’s scolding after finding themselves a strong backer.
She rolled her eyes at them in exasperation.
“Your daddy isn’t married into our family yet!”
She scoffed.
“He he!”
The children were amused by her use of such words.
“Cough!”
This time around, it was Ji Ziming’s turn to cough.
Listening to his cough, Pei Ge realized what she had just said.
“Er...”
For a moment, she could only awkwardly blink, not knowing what to say in reply.
“Wifey, may I ask when I can ‘marry into’ the family?”
He looked earnestly at her, his cool voice mesmerizing her eyes and serenading to her heart.
‘Wifey, may I ask when I can marry into the family?’
Thump, thump!
Her heart thumped ceaselessly as the question he had just asked played on a loop in her head.
“Y-You, why are you so frivolous?!”
She blushed, muttering inwardly, Wasn’t this man supposed to be an iceberg?
Since when did he become so good at sweet talks?!
The man’s lips curled upon seeing her shy look.
“What’s wrong; don’t you like it?”
“...I-I don’t like it! I don’t like it at all!”
She was stunned for a moment before replying hastily.
Hearing her reply and noting her embarrassment, he nodded lightly and oh-ed in a tone full of disbelief.
“What was that ‘oh’ for?! If I don’t like it, it means I don’t like it! Just eat your lunch!”
As she said that, she pulled An An and Ran Ran back to their seats.
“You two, eat as well!”
As such, they began eating their food.
Once they were all seated and stopped their bickering, this family of four appeared much more normal.
“Daddy, is the soup tasty?”
Not long after, the girl looked at the man drinking his soup and asked curiously.
“Yes, it’s tasty,” he answered softly, gulping the soup thereafter.
Both kids grew even more curious at his reply.
It’s mommy’s love-filled soup! We haven’t even tried it yet!
“Is it really that tasty? Daddy, I wanna have a taste, too!”
She blinked her large eyes at her father, who was drinking his soup, but this method, which had always worked before, failed this time around!
“No. This is prepared for me by your mother.”
Everyone fell silent at his words.
Little Ran Ran: Wu wu wu! Daddy no longer loves me!
Little An An: Does mommy’s soup taste really good, after all?
Pei Ge: D*mn! How childish can this man get?! He’s so old, yet he’s vying for food with his daughter!
The lunch ended on a happy note.
After lunch, the children could not wait to open Ji Ziming’s gifts for them.
The woman, for her part, was drawn to the desserts he had bought for her.
Looking at the exquisite desserts the man had placed right before her eyes, she drooled. It had been such a long time since she had desserts.
Unexpectedly, he still remembered what she liked even after a long time.
She looked up and saw that the man sitting opposite her was looking at her fondly.
“It’s really good to be able to sit down with you and have desserts.”
She felt wholly touched by his words.
Everyone knew that this great CEO really disliked eating sweet stuff, yet he actually started eating this sort of sugary food following her departure five years ago...
How could she not love a man like this?
This had also made her... feel guiltier.
Precisely because of her mistrust, they got separated for so long... and even lost one of their children. An An and Ran Ran even failed to have a complete family.
“Ziming...”
She smiled gently at him.
“Hm?”
He smiled back at her; his eyes were teeming with love.
“You can marry into the family and be my husband and the children’s father anytime.”
This statement seemed to be a curse that had stumped the man thoroughly.
“Alright.”
