After hanging up, she looked at the time. It was almost noon.
It was time for Su Ji to wake up. The two of them went to bed quite early last night.
Pei Huai typed a message on WeChat asking her if she had eaten.
At the dining table in the apartment, Su Ji put down her chopsticks and stretched her legs comfortably. As she chewed the last mouthful of beef, she typed on her phone.
[ “I just finished eating, I’m stuffed.” ]
Aunt Gong came over to collect the plates and smiled in surprise. ‘Ms. Su, you’re so awesome today. Third Master must be very happy to see this.”
All three plates were empty.
Only the bones were left.
Su Ji smiled. “I just had both breakfast and lunch.”
The phone in her hand vibrated again.
[ “Take a picture and let me see.” ]
He wanted to see which dish Su Ji liked better based on the remaining amount of each dish.
Then, he saw the two plates of bones.
None of the three dishes were a lot, but it was rare for Su Ji to finish everything.
Pei Huai was extremely happy and chatted with her for a while.
[ “Madam Xu still doesn’t know that you’re staying here with me?” ]
When he took Su Ji away, he said that they were going to his family house.
Su Ji rested her elbow on the dining table and held her phone. Her sitting posture was relaxed. When she typed a reply, her gaze subconsciously swept to her empty wrist.
[ “No.” ]
[ “Then I’ll have to tell her.” ]
Su Ji thought about it and replied.
[ “I don’t think it’s necessary? Anyway, I’ll be going back soon.” ]
Pei Huai did not reply to her second remark. [ “Won’t she know when she goes to my house?” ]
[ “She probably won’t…” ]
However, just as Su Ji sent out this message, two cars stopped opposite each other at the Pei residence’s entrance.
One of the car doors opened first. The woman took off her sunglasses and pursed her red lips. She had short hair and wore a black striped suit, looking very smart.
Madam Xu was here!
She was not the only one surprised.
The back door of the car opposite her was opened by the driver. Su Cunyi got out of the car with a lot of bird’s nests and gift boxes. He was in a good mood.
He heard that his daughter had been staying with the Pei family recently and was finally out of Xu Mingzhi’s control. He could finally catch up with his daughter.
The moment he stepped out of the car, his smile froze on his face.
Xu Mingzhi, who was standing beside the car opposite him, already had a dangerous squint in her eyes.
The ex-husband and ex-wife stood facing each other.
Although Xu Mingzhi was still a little shorter than Su Cunyi after wearing high heels, his aura was indeed two heads higher than Su Cunyi!
“You…” Su Cunyi’s voice trembled. “Are you here to visit Su Ji too?”
Xu Mingzhi snorted. “From the sound of it, you’re here to see Su Ji too?”
Su Cunyi felt that he was really unlucky. If he had come a day earlier or a day later, he would not have bumped into her. Now, the father-daughter day that was originally planned was ruined.
Xu Mingzhi was the complete opposite of him. She was glad that she had come today. Otherwise, who knew what Su Cunyi would have said to deceive her daughter!
She was furious when she thought of how the Su family had bullied her daughter.
Even if the one in the past was not her real daughter.
It was not enough to let Ning Lihua go to jail!
The butler heard the sound of the car and came out to check. When he saw Su
Cunyi, he was stunned. “Mr. Su, you’re here.”
Then, she saw Xu Mingzhi and was obviously much more enthusiastic. “Madam Xu, please come in.”
“The two of you…” His gaze darted between the two of them for a few seconds.
“You came together?”
Su Cunyi: ” No.”
Xu Mingzhi: “No!”
This time, the two of them spoke in unison. They didn’t have such good chemistry even when they were married.
The butler quickly realized.
He was not smart enough. Actually, just by looking at the direction of the cars, he should know that they did not come together.
Just as he was about to invite them in…
“It’s good that you’re here.” Xu Mingzhi spoke with a powerful aura. “There are criminals who want to sneak into the Pei family. You can’t let them in. If necessary, I can help you call the police!”
The butler: “Uh…”
“Nonsense!” Su Cunyi lifted his hands that were full of gifts. He didn’t dare to look at Xu Mingzhi and looked at the butler. “Have you ever seen criminals sneak into someone’s house with gifts?”
The butler wiped the sweat on his forehead with a handkerchief. “That’s true…”
Su Cunyi was about to enter, but Xu Mingzhi went to grab him. The butler quickly dodged.
However, Su Cunyi, who had no skills at all, was quite agile this time. He shook his shoulders and avoided Xu Mingzhi’s outstretched hand. Perhaps he knew her moves too well. In short, he did not get hit this time. He took a detour and walked quickly into the courtyard.
Xu Mingzhi breathed his last and followed closely behind.
The two of them were in a cat-and-mouse chase in the courtyard. Xu Mingzhi made all kinds of moves, and Su Cunyi moved flexibly. They could walk in a straight line for a minute, but they chased in circles for five minutes. When the butler saw that, he ran in and quickly informed the madam.
Finally, just as Su Cunyi was about to enter the Pei family’s house, he was careless and was pulled back by Xu Mingzhi by the collar of his shirt.
He turned around and saw Xu Mingzhi chasing him until her hair was messy. She looked beautiful and scary.
As expected of the deadly woman who often appeared in his dreams!
“What are you doing?!” Su Cunyi was anxious. “Our grudge is personal. Can’t we settle it privately after we see our daughter? Don’t be embarrassing!” “What right do you have to see my daughter?” Su Cunyi felt that Xu Mingzhi was even more beautiful when she glared at him…
It’s all a smokescreen!
Su Cunyi controlled himself well. “Su Ji is also my daughter. I have the right to see her!”
Xu Mingzhi said, “now you know that she’s your daughter? Why didn’t you treat her like your daughter when your mother and your twins bullied her?”
“I’m not going to argue with you today. I want to see my daughter first.” With that, he turned around and knocked on the door.
Xu Mingzhi squeezed in front of him and knocked on the door before him. As a result, their hands fell almost at the same time, almost hitting Du Meilan’s head.
A second ago, Du Meilan had opened the door.
The two of them paused for a moment and retracted their hands at the same time.
Du Meilan had a polite yet awkward smile on her face. “In-laws, stop arguing.. Today, none of you will be able to see Su Ji!”
