Chapter 2326: Meeting the parents
“Don ‘t.”
PEI GE tugged at Ji Ziming’s arm and whispered into his ear. Gu Sheng’s face turned darker and darker, making her feel uneasy.
“Mom, let’s have a good talk.”
The man’s attitude became much more restrained after hearing her words, not wanting her to be in an awkward position.
“Talk? What’s there to talk about?”
Gu Sheng glared at Ji Ziming. He really did not know what kind of drug this woman had given her son to make him so obedient.
“Auntie, I ...”
“Shut up! Who are you to speak in our family?”
The thought of her son listening to an outsider instead of her made her even angrier. Moreover, this woman had done such an unforgivable thing.
“Mom, if you still have this attitude, then there’s no need for us to continue this conversation.”
Ji Ziming’s heart ached for her. He did not expect his mother’s attitude to be like this. If he had known that this would happen, he would not have brought her home.
...
Gu Sheng seemed to not hear Ji Ziming’s words as he turned his gaze to the side and ignored the two of them. He tugged at the hem of his dress and prepared to go upstairs. She did not believe that her son would run away.
“Mom,” she said.
Ji Ziming shouted angrily when he saw that Gu Sheng had already gone upstairs. He really did not know where the demeanour of those ladies from noble families had gone.
“Don’t mind her. My mom doesn’t know you well enough. Should we wait for my dad to come back?”
He hugged her and consoled her. He did not know what to say to make her not mind anymore. He could not even understand his mother’s attitude.
“Don’t worry,”
She shook her head. Although she said that she was fine, she was actually still bothered by it. Her expression was very unnatural, but fortunately, she was in his arms, so he could not see it.
He wanted her to sit on the sofa, but she rejected him the moment he did so. She only pulled herself out of his embrace after she adjusted her expression.
She really wanted to leave now, but she wanted to get the approval of his family even more. She did not know when his father would return, and if he were to carry her, she would feel very awkward.
He tugged at her hand. It was too late to say anything now. He could only wait for his father to come back before making a decision.
Time passed by slowly, and it was already dark outside. Feeling uneasy, all she could think about was leaving this place.
“Why don’t I go back first today?”
She stood up and picked up her bag. She really did not want to stay here any longer. Although there were only the two of them here, it still made him feel breathless.
“Why don’t I give my father a call?”
He stopped her. Before meeting his father, there was still hope. If he missed this chance, he did not know when she would be willing to come to his house again. He was really worried about his mother.
The man’s hands did not stop moving. He took out his phone and opened his contacts. Just as he dialed the number, he heard the door lock ring. It was his father.
.
Father Ji entered the room and saw the two of them in a stalemate. He looked at his son in confusion, the questioning look in his eyes clear.
“Dad, you’re back. Let me introduce you to my girlfriend, PEI GE.”
Ji Ziming got excited at the sight of his father. Fortunately, PEI GE did not insist on leaving, or he would have missed this opportunity.
“Hello, uncle.”
She politely greeted him and lowered her head, feeling increasingly nervous. If his father’s attitude was the same as his mother ‘s, she really did not know what to do.
“Hey, how are you?”
Father Ji changed into his slippers and walked in. He knew this girl in front of him. When he thought of those bad memories, his heart felt stifled and his expression turned ugly.
Suddenly, father Ji realized her existence and changed his mind. Those things were in the past, but he was still the one who had let her down.
“Ziming, why didn’t you pour me a glass of water?”
Father Ji looked at the empty coffee table and said unhappily. He thought of his wife’s phone call today and knew what was going on.
“Your name is PEI GE, right? you don’t have to be so formal. Just treat this like your own home.”
Father Ji kindly said this when he saw that she was a little hesitant. He did not like or hate her, but since she was a guest of his house, he naturally had to treat her well.
“Dad, here’s some water for you.”
Ji Ziming filled up two glasses of water and passed one to his father and the other to his woman. His father’s attitude put him at ease. At least he was not as bad as his mother.
“There’s a guest at home. Why didn’t your mother come down?”
Father Ji stood up and prepared to go upstairs to call him. They were all from wealthy families, so they still had to have basic etiquette. If they just left the guests aside like this, they would be laughed at.
“Uncle, it’s okay. Auntie might be tired. It’s already dark, so I have to leave.”
PEI GE picked up her bag and prepared to leave. She did not receive any welcome from father Ji, so the atmosphere was awkward as the three of them sat there.
“Yes. It’s getting late. Let Ziming send you back.”
Father Ji did not continue to ask her to stay. This matter still needed to be discussed at home. Although this lady was a good lady, there was still someone who was stuck here. Father Ji then looked upstairs.
“Then, I’ll send her back first.”
Seeing that she was sincere in leaving, he stood up, feeling a little disappointed. If not for his mother’s attitude, today would have been a perfect day.
“You don’t have to send me, I’ll take a taxi back.”
She rejected his kind offer when she reached the villa’s entrance. She felt that she needed some time to herself after what had happened today.
“My mother doesn’t represent me. You can’t reject me because of her.”
He could feel her rejection. It was not easy for them to get close to each other, and he did not want to go back to where they started.
“I’m not. I just want to be alone. ”
She frowned. She did not like him being so agitated. What was done was done, and she needed time to digest it. Even if they were together, they still needed to have their own space, right?
“I see. I’ll send you to the villa area.”
