Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
When Xu Mingzhi arrived at the cafe, the atmosphere was still very tense. The Kuromis were also nervous.
But now, it was completely different.
It was precisely because he had been worried for the entire night that Xu Mingzhi was extremely happy when the misunderstanding was resolved!
She knew that her son-in-law was doing the surgery for her daughter, and she was very touched. When she thought about how she had misunderstood her son-in-law before she came today, she felt even more guilty.
This should be the legendary saying of suppressing one’s desires first.
At that time, Xu Mingzhi suggested that they drink.
Although she had had many opportunities to meet her son-in-law recently, she had never met him alone.
Originally, Xu Mingzhi was afraid that they would take a long time, so she specially set aside an entire day today. It was a rare opportunity.
Coincidentally, Pei Huai also had his thoughts, so he agreed to his mother-in-law’s suggestion.
Well, if his mother-in-law drank more…it would be easier later.
After paying a generous fee, the request to drink in the cafe did not sound so ridiculous.
In fact, the alcohol was prepared by the Kuromis. They even helped Xu Mingzhi buy the legendary dish that went with alcohol, the Drunkard’s Peanut.
The drinking session between the mother-in-law and son-in-law lasted for a long time. The relationship between the two of them became better, and Xu Mingzhi also entered a slightly tipsy state.
When other in-laws gathered together, they would more or less complain about their wives and take this opportunity to vent their grievances. However, these two people were completely the opposite. Not only would they not complain, but they would also not allow the other party to complain.
Xu Mingzhi and Pei Huai were completely different in terms of family background and upbringing, not to mention the age difference.
One was a female hero with a broken horse, Zhang Fei, and the other was a cold and arrogant financial giant.
It was difficult to find a common topic.
But…they did have one very important thing in common, and that was Su Ji.
Su Ji was the apple of Xu Mingzhi and Pei Huai’s eye. In their eyes, Su Ji had no flaws.
If one had to say one thing, it was that she was too likable!
Su Ji, who saw the photo, could not believe it. If Pei Huai had not sent it to her, she might have thought that it was the work of a scammer.
Pei Huai’s action of putting away his phone was subtle, but it was still noticed by Xu Mingzhi.
Xu Mingzhi was very vigilant. Her eyes flickered slightly. “Alright, we drank a lot today. It’s almost time for me…”
However, halfway through getting up, she realized that the chair behind her had stopped moving.
Turning around, her son-in-law pressed his hand on the back of her chair.
He didn’t seem to use any force, but the chair under him seemed to be glued to the ground.
“Pei Huai,” Xu Mingzhi’s lips twitched slightly. “What’s wrong?”
Pei Huai said, “I haven’t finished drinking yet. Don’t be in a hurry to leave, mom.”
Xu Mingzhi held the back of the chair. “I told you, my time is up. I still have something to do.”
Pei Huai secretly exerted strength in his palm. “If there’s anything, I can send you off. This moment is not a problem.”
The two of them looked calm on the surface, but in reality, undercurrents were surging and golden drums were ringing.
At this moment, the alcohol in the two of them had almost faded.
The Kuromis were still sighing from afar that this gentleman was really good to his mother-in-law… owever, in the next second, Pei Huai caught sight of his wife’s swift figure from the corner of his eye outside the glass wall of the coffee shop. His brows furrowed slightly.
“I’m sorry, mom.” After apologizing in a low and quick voice, the man exerted force on his wrist. The huge force forced Xu Mingzhi to sit back in the chair, and then he restrained one of her wrists on the table.
“Hey…cough, cough.” Xu Mingzhi realized that she had made a mistake and was instantly enraged. She could no longer suppress her coughing. “If I hadn’t drunk too much, you wouldn’t have succeeded. How dare you treat your mother-in-law like this? Aren’t you afraid that I won’t let my daughter marry you?!”
“It’s too late,” Pei Huai replied calmly and black-bellied.
The Kuromis were shivering in the distance. For some reason, they suddenly started quarreling!
Then, at this moment, the door of the coffee shop opened. Su Ji strode over. Her strong aura made them not have the courage to stop her at all!
“Baby, why are you here?” Xu Mingzhi pretended to be confused, but Su Ji had no intention of playing Tai Chi with her mother. Across the table, the girl hooked the chair with her foot and sat down.
The wrist that Pei Huai was controlling had a pulse. Su Ji took off her hat and threw it aside, covering it with her porcelain-white fingers.
