Pei Ge looked at Ji Ziming and coughed before continuing, “Ziming, I want to visit Mom today. Ever since we came back from the Qu family, we haven’t been to the house. I wonder if Mom and Uncle are still around. If they are, I would like to visit them and take the chance to see how Nana’s new job is.”
“Okay, I’ll go with you. I’ll go wherever you want to go, okay?”
Ji Ziming narrowed his eyes and looked at the woman in front of him. “No matter where you go, I’ll go with you.”
“What are you doing here all morning? Hurry downstairs. We can leave earlier.”
Pei Ge scolded.
“Sure, bring these three children along?”
“Yes, Uncle is here. Besides, doesn’t butler Charlie like them a lot? It’ll save me some effort to bring them along.”
Pei Ge thought about it and decided to keep the three children by her side. If they stayed in the Ji family’s villa, they might tear down the house.
“That makes sense. I’ll listen to you.”
His eyes were filled with love as he looked at her.
The family of five reached the entrance of the house in no time. It was close to noon, and the fragrance of the dishes drifted into Ran Ran’s nose.
“Grandma must be cooking something delicious. It smells so good!”
Ran Ran missed Zhang Manhua’s cooking the most. After returning to the Ji family’s villa for so many days, she could always remember the taste buds this woman brought her every time she ate.
“Then why don’t you hurry in and see if grandma has prepared anything nice for you?”
Pei Ge pressed the doorbell and the person who opened the door was Mao Nana. She looked at the few people at the door in surprise. “You guys are finally here. Come in quickly. Sister Manhua is almost done.”
Mao Nana pulled Pei Ge’s arm and rested her head on Pei Ge’s shoulder. “I might be traveling overseas with Uncle in a few days.”
“Really? That’s great. I can finally see the two of you together. Where are you going?”
Pei Ge and Mao Nana stood at the back as the two women discussed where a couple should go for a date. They were whispering softly as though they were afraid of being found out.
“Ge Ge, what place do you think is suitable for us to travel? I’ve been thinking of many places recently, but I haven’t found a suitable one. It’s also because of this that Uncle and I have seen many places suitable for couples to travel.”
Pei Ge thought about it for a while. As she walked into the house, she said softly, “Na Na, if you really don’t want to, you can just go anywhere you want. It’s actually quite good to travel as you wish.”
Mao Nana thought about it for a while before pulling Pei Ge to sit on the sofa beside her. “Mhm, that makes sense. Ge Ge, you’re still the best. You mentioned all the places I wanted to go with just one sentence. I shall choose a few new ones with uncle by throwing a coin.”
Pei Ge’s voice was gentle as she looked into Mao Nana’s eyes. Her eyes were filled with warmth. “Nana, it’s great. You and uncle can finally have a happy ending. I really feel happy for you. I’m really happy for you guys. It’s so good to have you in this big family.”
“Ge Ge, don’t say that. I should be the one saying that I’m lucky to have you guys. It’s because of you that I feel at home. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t even know where I am right now.”
Mao Nana’s eyes turned warm as she looked into Pei Ge’s eyes. She knew that if Pei Ge had not told her that she had a future in R City, she would not have returned to China and would not have met her manager.
“Nana, it’s all in the past. Let’s not talk about it anymore. We just have to live well now.”
“But…”
Mao Nana still did not understand when her trip with Qu Xiujie became such a big deal that Pei Ge had to settle it for them.
“Don’t worry about it, Nana. You and your uncle are going alone. As long as you’re together, anywhere is good.”
“Mhm, I’ll listen to you. Ge Ge, we haven’t had a proper meal together in a long time. What are you two so busy with? I can’t believe it.”
Mao Nana raised her head and looked at Pei Ge with her beautiful eyes. For such a long time, Pei Ge had not contacted her or even Zhang Manhua.
“What else can I be busy with? I’m at home taking care of those three children. You don’t even know that these three children are really capable of causing trouble. I finally understand now. Being a mother is really not an easy thing, especially a mother of three children.”
Pei Ge sighed and looked at her. “Nana, when you have a child with my uncle, I might be able to help.”
Pei Ge smiled as she looked at Mao Nana with a gentle gaze. Whenever she thought of her three children, she would feel so proud. It was also because of the feeling of being a mother that Pei Ge felt the real meaning of living in this city.
‘Love is never a solitary existence. It is because you have the person you love the most by your side.’ It was precisely because of this that Pei Ge believed that she was the best living proof in this world. Because there was someone she loved and because there was someone who loved her, the warmth of this world would surround her like air.
The small building was bustling with noise and excitement as the family gathered around and ate a banquet. The atmosphere was even more lively than the New Year’s meal.
However, at this time, Old master Qu was the only one sitting in the dining room. He was the only one in the cold room. The Qu family’s huge family business was like a decoration, leaving behind nothing substantial.
Qu Jingwan had been living in Qu Qingyu’s house ever since Old lady Qu was captured. The two of them quarreled but stayed together. Qu Jingwan could not stand Qu Qingyu finding another woman behind her back and Qu Qingyu felt that Qu Jingwan was no longer useful.
They despised each other but could not leave each other.
Meanwhile, Madam Qu was accompanying Qu Jingwan in Qu Qingyu’s house.
“Master, do you want me to pour some wine for you? It’s a cold day, it’s good to drink some wine to warm up your body.”
