Xie Lingyu then took Su Jit s hands, both of them. “Su Ji, you said it too well! No one has ever said this to me before.”
Cao Zhuzhu: Mom! Please speak with your conscience! Has no one ever told you this before?
“You’re right, work is not as important as my precious daughter.” Xie Lingyu seemed to have an epiphany. “Not even eight million yuan can buy me time with my daughter!”
As expected of someone who had attended the engagement party of a rich family today. In the past, Xie Lingyu and her coworkers would give examples in the unit of “hundreds, thousands, or tens of thousands” at most, but now she was asking for eight million.
“That’s right.” Su Ji put her hands into her pockets out of habit, but when she realized that there were no pockets on her gown today, she placed it on the bar counter.
Xie Lingyu made up her mind and nodded. “Alright! I’m not leaving! I’ll stay for another week! ”
Hearing that she had finally changed her mind, Cao Zhuzhu was happy but also a little powerless to complain.
She had said the same thing 800 times before, but her mother just wouldn’t listen.
And then, just a word from Master Ji would do?
If Cao Zhuzhu was still happy that her mother had finally agreed to stay, then
Pei Song was completely dumbfounded.
However, when he looked over, he happened to meet Su Ji’s gaze.
He could see a deeper meaning in it.
Sister-in-law had bought him a week’s time…
Since she had decided not to leave, Cao Zhuzhu immediately canceled her ticket.
Xie Lingyu could no longer change her mind.
The guests left one by one, but the Pei and Su families were still discussing enthusiastically.
“If we knew that Su Ji was already pregnant, why would we have an engagement? I think we should just hold a wedding ceremony.” Pei Qingshen was in high spirits.
“Eh,” Zhang Guihua said, “there should still be an engagement ceremony. We can’t break the rules of our ancestors.”
“That’s true.” Pei Qingshen said, “we must have what we should have. In-law is right.”
The last time Zhang Guihua went to the Pei family, it was completely different. That time, they had gone there for the cooperation. In fact, it was difficult for them to even see Old Master Pei, let alone the treatment.
Pei Shizhan looked at Su Ji with a rare gentleness and affection in his eyes. “Get Pei Huai to take you for a check-up as soon as possible. Let us know if you need anything.” Su Ji nodded.
Du Meilan hugged Su Ji’s arm.
Previously, she thought about how to make the two children naturally change their minds about being DINKs after marriage. They did not have to do anything, but at least they were willing to accept or consider the possibility of other ways of life. It was not for anything else, but mainly because the old man was stubborn. She wanted to try her best to balance the two sides.
In the end, her future daughter-in-law gave her such a big surprise today.
Then, when she saw her son’s reaction when he found out that his fiancée was pregnant, she also knew…they had been fooled. What did he mean by wanting to be a DINK? It was pure nonsense.
Pei Xi gave Su Ji a mysterious thumbs up. This time, Pei Huai was sure to win.
Su Ji tilted her head slightly, not knowing what this ‘like’ meant.
Pei Xi smiled and did not explain. She only said that they could have more common topics in the future.
“As expected of my sister-in-law.” Even their pregnancies were synced. In the future, their babies would be able to play together, hold hands, and follow little brother Xingxing. How interesting would that be?
The legendary little brother Xingxing was looking at them through the gaps between the adults ‘legs”.
His little face was dark in the shadows.
He had a premonition that in the future…he would lose his status! Su Cunyi did not say much from the beginning to the end, but he had a smile on his face.
When a father found out that his daughter was pregnant, his emotions were always complicated. He was happy and sad. In his heart, his daughter seemed to be a child forever, but soon…she would have a child too.
Looking at Xu Mingzhi, who was still agitated, he walked forward and patted her shoulder comfortingly.
Xu Mingzhi turned around and looked at him. Her eyes were red as she told him to take his hand away and get as far away as possible.
Su Cunyi smiled and agreed.
What kind of children did parents like the most?
One who was outstanding in their career, did not drag out their personal problems, did not need their parents to worry about anything, and could do everything to put them at ease.
After that day, Su Ji had become someone else’s child.
Not to mention Su Cunyi, even Zhang Guihua did not expect this.
Just over a year ago, Su Ji was still the laughing stock of the Su family. She was the shameless girl who was abandoned by the new director, the one who was covered in scandals, the target of Ning Lihua’s ridicule every day, and the sister Su Qianrou would never take seriously.
But now?
That was why it was said that one should not be in a hurry to give up on a child. What if they suddenly turned the tables like Su Ji?
Xie Lingyu liked Su Ji so much that she could always look at Xu Mingzhi with obvious envy and a little jealousy.
She stayed with her daughter until the end of the engagement party. When Xu Mingzhi was finally alone, Xie Lingyu came forward to give her blessings.
Xu Mingzhi knew who Xie Lingyu was the moment she saw her. The mother-daughter pair were both beauties with good figures.
In any case, according to Xu Mingzhi’s taste, the most beautiful girl among her daughter’s good friends was Cao Zhuzhu.
“Your child is just as outstanding,” Xu Mingzhi replied with a smile.
Xie Lingyu said that she flattered her.
Xie Lingyu left with her daughter.
She would go to her daughter’s rented house later.
“Zhuzhu, let’s not order in. Take me to the market. Mom will make you delicious food.” Xie Lingvu Datted the back of her hand lovinglv.
Cao Zhuzhu agreed. “Then I want to eat your fermented rice balls.”
Xie Lingyu smiled calmly. “It’s not difficult at all.”
This was a rare time for the mother and daughter to be alone. Pei Song was not in a hurry to please his future mother-in-law, so he would not disturb them. Moreover, he had already been stabbed in the heart many times today.
He was leaning against the entrance of the restaurant, looking at the mother and daughter.
Xie Lingyu got into the car first. Then she remembered that she had left her scarf in the venue, so Cao Zhuzhu went to get it for her.
When she returned to the venue, she noticed Pei Song standing there. She ignored him and went in to help her mother get her things. When she went in, the waiter who cleaned up the venue had already folded the scarf and put it in a bag. He was looking for the owner.
Cao Zhuzhu thanked the waiter. She had to pass by Pei Song before she could return after getting the things.
This time, Pei Song grabbed her wrist. Although it was just a simple action, Cao Zhuzhu’s entire body immediately felt like it had been electrocuted, and her scalp went numb.
She didn’t know if Xie Lingyu could see it, but her heart beat even faster. She tried to pull her hands away, but she couldn’t. She mouthed to him, “what do you want?”
“Nothing.” Pei Song said deliberately. “I miss you..”
