Chapter 1338: I swear never to let her be in harm’s way again.

“Mom, let’s take Ziming’s car and go out for lunch later!”

Her mother lightly snorted at this, neither agreeing nor disagreeing with it.

Still, she took her silence as consent to go out for lunch.

“Alright! Let’s go have lunch outside this noon!”

She smilingly told the man.

Ji Ziming nodded and lightly acquiesced.

At this scene, Zhang Manhua felt a little displeased.

“I’m giving my two precious grandkids some face here—not this daughter who sides with strangers.”

“Yes, yes, yes! Mom is always right!”

Her daughter was amused.

Hence, a family of four became five. After preparing their things, all five got in the man’s car and made their way toward a five-star hotel he had reserved in advance.

Along the way, the older woman had fun with her two grandchildren in the back seat, whereas the two seated in front would occasionally cut in with remarks.

As she was still a little angry, she was rather unwilling to bother with the two.

Despite that, the atmosphere in the car remained lively.

Just like this, the car arrived at its destination.

After alighting, she held her grandkids in each hand and walked into the hotel ahead of the couple.

Behind the trio, Pei Ge started whispering to Ji Ziming.

“Don’t mind it mom, okay? She woke up not too long ago and still has some bottled-up anger. Also, ever since she had a new boyfriend, her temper has been growing due to all the pampering she’s receiving.”

She whispered in his ear, badmouthing her mother.

“Boyfriend?”

The man was taken aback.

“Yup!”

Just as she moved to tell him about her Uncle Caesar, her mother’s voice traveled toward them.

“What are you two whispering there?! Where is the place you guys reserved?!”

Upon turning around and spotting her daughter’s sneaky smile, Zhang Manhua instantly glared at the pair.

“Ah! Coming, coming!”

After some trouble, the five finally reached the private room. The waiters quickly served the food, and soon, the huge dining table was filled with delicious cuisines.

The food served was not a feast of western delicacies. In fact, it could not even be considered a feast in China. Instead, they were plain, home-cooked food that the mother-daughter pair usually cooked and ate.

This was also why Zhang Manhua was a little stunned upon seeing the food served.

Although the upscale sanatorium she was staying did serve Chinese food, it was rare for her to see such a variety of home-cooked food on one table.

These dishes were all plain-looking, too...

“This...”

Looking at her daughter in perplexity and surprise, she thought, Did my daughter prepare this?

“Mom, don’t look at me; I didn’t do this. I wasn’t even the one who reserved this place.”

Pei Ge hurriedly shook her head and turned to look at Ji Ziming in amusement.

This fellow truly knows how to make a woman happy now.

He can even guess my mom’s preference. How capable!

Her mother understood at once that the man was the one who had this meal prepared; hence, the prejudice she had for him slightly eased.

Still, it was merely a little.

“Mhm.”

She lightly nodded. Before she could pick up the chopsticks, the discerning Ji Ziming readily gave her a bowl of soup.

“Mom, have some soup first.”

His obedience caused her to reflect if she had been too harsh on him earlier. It seemed that she was truly a terrible and hard-to-please mother-in-law!

“Mhm.”

Nodding, she received the bowl of soup from him.

She had just taken her first sip when she spotted him serving the two children soup next, followed by Pei Ge, and finally himself.

She could not help but be reminded of how he had treated her daughter similarly before she fell into a coma when he saw how the man took care of her daughter and the children now.

Back then, it was because she saw how much he cherished her daughter that she did not object to their marriage.

If it was truly as what her daughter had said and it had all been a misunderstanding, then... this couple in love with each other had truly been delayed for far too long...

Perhaps it was because she was absorbed in her thoughts, but there was barely any conversation during the meal and everyone concentrated only on eating.

A little while after they started eating, the two children requested to go to the toilet.

Hence, as the mother, Pei Ge could only hold their hands and bring them to the comfort room.

“Mom, stay here with Ziming; I’ll just bring An An and Ran Ran to the toilet.”

With that, she left the private room.

As such, the old woman and the man were left in this spacious dining room. Inexplicably, the atmosphere between the two became a little awkward.

“Mom...”

This silence was quickly broken by the man.

“I know that you don’t trust me and are afraid that I will hurt Pei Ge again after causing her so much suffering before, but I promise to you that, from now on, I will never let her suffer even a tinge of hurt again!”

He gazed at her with resolution while speaking sincerely and solemnly.

Just from his tone, one could sense his conviction.

Of course, she could also tell that he was sincere.

“Is that true? You won’t make my daughter suffer again like last time?”

With a light frown, she looked at him inquisitively.

“Do you know how badly hurt my daughter was because of you last time? She was pregnant, yet you betrayed her. As a result, the kids were born prematurely. Do you know how much suffering you put her through then?”

At this point, she felt extreme dissatisfaction and inexplicable displeasure.

Even if it was explained as a big misunderstanding to her and even if he was also a victim, she still believed that it was because he was unable to protect her daughter well that all of those things happened.

“Do you know that she lost one...”
