Afraid that she would be worried, Ji Ziming continued, “If anything happens, I’ll call you, okay? You can play with the children outside while I cook for you in the kitchen...”
“I think you should go out. I can finish my work here by myself. If you still don’t go out now, then you really can’t later.”
Pei Ge walked to Ji Ziming’s side. She watched as he took the fruits from her and washed them one by one before placing them in the fruit basket. Her pink lips parted slightly as she said, “After washing the fruits, wash the vegetables over there too. I’ll just be busy here.”
Pei Ge’s voice was gentle as she looked at Ji Ziming’s back, her heart filled with boundless joy.
Just as the two of them were talking in the kitchen about who was here, Pei Ge’s phone in the living room rang. It was Tang Xiaoyu.
“Mommy, mommy, it’s Auntie Xiaoyu calling. Quickly come and pick up.”
Ran Ran hurriedly ran to Pei Ge with her phone. When Pei Ge took the phone, she grabbed a handful of strawberries from the fruit basket beside Ji Ziming and ran out of the kitchen.
“Ran Ran, you haven’t washed your hands.”
Pei Ge saw Ran Ran grab the strawberries and quickly called out to her. However, Ran Ran did not listen and had already stuffed two strawberries into her mouth.
“You lass!”
Pei Ge stood at the same spot and watched Ran Ran pass the remaining strawberries to An An and little Ji Chi. She did not continue speaking but instead looked at Ran Ran and said to Ji Ziming, “Look at your daughter, why is she like this now?”
“Mommy, daddy, and grandma all said that you and I are the most similar people in this family. So if you talk about me, you’re talking about yourself. After all, you’re my mommy.”
Ran Ran stuck out her tongue and looked at her fearlessly.
“You’re really good at talking now. Should I praise you instead?”
Instead of getting angry, she laughed out loud. “You little lass, who did you learn this from? When did I ever teach you these things?”
“I learned it from you, Mommy. I learned it from you.”
Ran Ran swallowed the strawberries in her mouth and continued, “Mommy, you can’t blame me. I’m just...”
“Ran Ran, if you still say that, I can’t guarantee that mommy won’t blame you.”
Ji Ziming immediately stopped Pei Ge from going out to argue with Ran Ran and made her stop talking.
“Daddy, are you afraid that Mommy will lose her temper?”
Unexpectedly, Ran Ran did not understand Ji Ziming’s intention and was still fighting with Pei Ge. “Mommy, I think you’re very amazing. Now that you have daddy, you can bully me as you wish, but I’m different. I don’t have daddy and daddy is unwilling to help me.”
As Ran Ran spoke, she even put on a pitiful expression. Ji Ziming could not help but admire how this lass resembled Pei Ge.
“You still dare to say that? If you weren’t so naughty, why would I come and teach you a lesson? It’s not the first time you know that you have to wash your hands when you eat.”
“But I want to eat it. Daddy, look at Mommy. Mommy just wants to hit me. I don’t have Daddy’s love or mommy to dote on me. Even my two brothers aren’t willing to help me. I’m so pitiful. Grandpa and Grandma have left too. They don’t even care about me and left me here alone.”
The more Ran Ran spoke, the more exaggerated she became. She really wanted to go on a trip with Mother Ji and Father Ji right now.
“Aiyo, little girl, I haven’t even said anything yet. You’ve already said it yourself. You are truly giving me too much face. Exactly who do you resemble?”
Pei Ge still wanted to discuss this important matter with Ran Ran but the phone in her hand pulled her back to reality.
“Hello, Xiaoyu. Why are you calling?”
Pei Ge’s voice was filled with concern as she looked at Ran Ran, who was not far away. Her thoughts were pulled back to reality by Tang Xiaoyu’s voice.
“Ge Ge, I just participated in a bid.”
“Is it over now? What’s the result?”
Pei Ge was deep in thought and the mockery on her face was completely gone.
“I was very successful and snatched everything he wanted. However, I also felt very disappointed. I didn’t seem to have gotten anything. Even if I did, it was just a fleeting feeling. Ge Ge, do you think I’m sick? Do I have to feel this way when I can’t have anything? When I first came to America, I didn’t feel this way when I saw him.”
“Xiaoyu, that’s because you haven’t had the heart to kick up a fuss with him. I know how you feel, and I also know that in your heart, his position is still so important. All of this is just because you still love him. It’s alright, you can do whatever you want. I’ll support you in whatever you want to do.”
Pei Ge was determined to support Tang Xiaoyu even though she knew that Tang Xiaoyu treated Gu Zhengrong as an enemy.
“Ge Ge, am I a bad woman? How can I treat him like this?”
Tang Xiaoyu walked to the other side of the venue. The quiet environment allowed her to relax. When she thought of how Gu Zhengrong’s heart had been broken at the venue earlier, her heart broke but she knew that there was no way out.
However, seeing Gu Zhengrong and her taking away everything he wanted, Tang Xiaoyu still wished that she could return to how she was in the beginning.
He would give her everything he wanted and loved. All she wanted was his heart.
However, it was different now. Tang Xiaoyu wanted not only Gu Zhengrong’s heart, but also everything he cared about, including his career.
“Bad woman do things much worse than you. At most, you can be considered half a bad woman. Isn’t it said that men only love bad women? What are you afraid of? You still have me. I support you. As long as you think things through clearly, I’m willing to support you. Xiaoyu, you really don’t have to be afraid. I think Gu Zhengrong has already made up his mind.”
“But Ge Ge, I really feel terrible and hopeless. I feel like I’m going to be emptied out by my courage. Do you know that I met someone today? That person told me that there are many things in this world that money can’t buy, such as love and my trust in Gu Zhengrong.”
