Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The air stilled after Ji Ziming spoke.
Noting the man’s icy look, her mind cleared up instantly.
I am just his fake girlfriend and shield! I totally don’t have the rights to et his parents at his house!
I’m thinking too highly of myself again!
“That’s right, auntie. I have sothing on tomorrow, so I won’t be able to visit your house. I’m really sorry about that.” She smiled apologetically at her. The happiness in her eyes dimd quite a bit with this statent, however.
Wake up a little, Pei Ge.
She numbly reminded herself inwardly, her expression dulling.
Despite having face blindness—rather, it was because of that condition that Mother Ji was more perceptive of the changes in a person’s expression.
Hence, she easily picked up on Pei Ge’s mood plumting a little because of what her son had said.
“You brat, what did you just say?” Mother Ji glared hatefully at him.
“That’s right, Cousin. Auntie invited Sister Pei Ge and not you.” Qin Qitong also glared hatefully at him, completely forgetting that he was her relative in the process of helping the ‘outsider’.
She quickly spoke up for him upon hearing the two won reprimand him.
“Auntie, Qitong, I really have sothing on tomorrow, and it’s not because of Ziming,” she reasoned softly but genuinely while looking them in the eye.
“Tomorrow... I am shopping with my mom. We agreed on it a long ti ago, so...” she playfully said, “accompanying you tomorrow is not possible for , Auntie, as I will have to fulfill my promise with mom.”
Instead of the expected look of regret, Mother Ji bead at her excitedly.
“Ge Ge, you are shopping with your mom tomorrow?”
“That’s right. Why?” She nodded and then looked at her questioningly, not understanding why she was happy with that.
“I’ll just go with you guys! I have nothing to do tomorrow, anyway!” Mother Ji’s eyes twinkled rrily.
“...” Pei Ge’s mouth gave a twitch at her declaration, unable to think of anything to say for a bit.
“I am only accompanying my mom in small shopping districts...” Gathering her thoughts, she sucked in a deep breath and tried to reject her subtly.
Stop kidding ! Disregarding my complicated relationship with Ziming, just from auntie’s status, her shopping standard should totally be on a different level to ours, so how can we shop with her?!
“Really?! I’ve been wanting to shop at the small shopping districts for a long ti now. Too bad I don’t know where they are located, and Ah Hui won’t take there.” Mother Ji’s excitent just grew further with her subtle hinting.
She really did not know how to handle the situation when she noted his mother’s seriousness.
Although she liked Mother Ji a lot as an elder, she had no intention of letting her expose her bogus relationship with him to her mother.
Hence, she could never let the two mothers et. Otherwise... the bogus relationship she had with him would definitely be found out by her mother.
Thinking up to this, she directed her gaze on to the man. Her clear eyes were filled with a silent call for help.
The man felt rage slowly build up inside him when he perceived her intention to reject his mother’s request again.
I don’t get it. Am I too unpresentable to her that she doesn’t want to have any connection with ?
A certain great CEO Ji, whose pride had suffered a blow, looked at her with a gaze filled with hurt and grudge.
Although he felt frustrated at her, he repressed it when t with her pleading gaze and helped her reject his mother again.
“Mom, dad is at ho tomorrow; you should stay and accompany him. He only has one day of rest per week.” He coldly pointed out.
However, his mother did not take the bait he had thrown at her and just snorted. “I can see your dad every day, but Ge Ge is the opposite case. I want to go shopping with her tomorrow!”
“Pfft! Auntie, count in, too! I want to go shopping with you guys!” Qin Qitong burst into laughter when she saw him eating a loss at his mother’s hands.
“...” No way! Pei Ge felt a sense of helplessness assault her when Ji Ziming failed to convince his mother otherwise and when a little tail even decided to join them.
“Sure, sure! Qitong, let’s go together tomorrow!”
“Mhm! Auntie, after shopping tomorrow, we can go look for a restaurant and have dinner together...”
Pei Ge had no tears left to cry as she watched the two happily discuss their next day’s agenda.
I really only want to stay at ho tomorrow!
It’s all this annoying fellow’s fault!
She shot him a look of resentnt.
What should I do if my mom finds out about my relationship with Ziming from his mom tomorrow?
Mom will definitely think that it’s real...
“What’s wrong, Ge Ge? You seem worried about sothing.” Mother Ji, who was discussing their plans for tomorrow with Qin Qitong, noticed Pei Ge’s awry expression.
Pei Ge gave her light smile and replied, “It’s nothing.”
As soone who was sensitive to the changes in a person’s facial expression, Mother Ji easily detected that sothing was amiss. She subconsciously looked at her son.
One look, and she noted that he also looked off.
For so reason, she felt that the couple, who should be in their honeymoon phase, were behaving opposite that.
She then thought back on how her son clearly wanted his girlfriend to visit their house earlier but still coldly rejected the offer in the end, and then a frown slowly surfaced on her forehead.
No way! Although my son already has a girlfriend, his EQ is still too low! This can’t go on...
“Ge Ge, Ziming, have you two cohabited?”
