“What?”


  Ji Ziming raised his brow, unable to fathom why she was suddenly asking him such a question.

  “Ji Chi is your biological son, so I hope that you won’t leave him out.”


  Although that boy appeared naïve and clueless, he was very sensitive deep down.

  It was impossible that he could not sense how differently his father was treating him and Pei Ge’s kids.

  Even if he did not treat them differently…… this man really treated her children way too well.

  He treated them so well that she found it to be unbelievable at times.

  Naturally, having never received his father’s care and attention, the boy was sensitive to it.

  “What are you talking about? I didn’t leave him out.”


  His forehead creased at her words.

  “I’ve always wanted to tell you that you don’t need to bring your son to my place. Do you know that your mother met me with your fiancée and future mother-in-law?”


  Looking at his face, she knew that he was telling the truth.

  Nonetheless, no matter how intelligent the boy was, how could he understand that his father was treating him and her children equally?

  “.……She came to look for you; why didn’t you tell me?”


  Red light. All the vehicles on their lane stopped.

  The man stepped on the brakes and, through the rearview mirror, looked at the woman’s face, which was so beautiful he wanted to cover it.

  “I don’t think this is a big issue, so I didn’t want to mention it. I also didn’t expect you to hang out at my place with your son.”


  She merely smiled at him.

  “I genuinely want to marry you. Stop making things difficult for me.”


  “I’ve never made things difficult for you. I’m truly begging you to stop harassing me.”


  All of a sudden, the atmosphere in the car turned tense.

  Green light.

  Alas, the both of them did not notice the changing of the traffic lights as they sat there without making a noise.

  This went until a honking sound came from behind; only then did the car start moving again.

  “.……I don’t care what you think. Since you’ve shown yourself to me once more, I won’t let you disappear from my sight again.”


  His words sounded like the cold wind in winter; it was freezing and firm.

  It blew right into her heart, making it cold and warm at the same time and causing her emotions to be in a turmoil.

  “.……”


  They arrived at the apartment just like this.

  However, as if in tacit understanding, the moment the door was opened, their expression was no longer as solemn as before.

  “Mommy! Uncle!”


  Little Ran Ran came charging at the two adults.

  Standing at the doorstep, both bent down and reached out to give the girl a hug.

  Only then did they realize that they had done the same thing.

  Of course, the girl charging at them noticed it, too.

  She stopped in her tracks and tilted her head slightly as she blinked curiously at them.

  She appeared as though she were considering whose embrace she should choose.

  “Ran Ran.”


  Pei Ge smiled and waved at her precious daughter. Nevertheless, before the child could walk toward her, the man straightened up and met the girl halfway and then picked her up.

  “He he! Uncle, I want to be tossed in the air!”


  She giggled, circling her arms around his neck, and lay her head on his shoulder trustingly.

  “No. It’s not a safe game to play.”


  No matter how much the girl acted cutesy to him, the man gently yet firmly rejected her request. He rubbed her head every time after saying no, nevertheless.

  “Oh, uncle! Let me tell you: Little brother has been very nice to me today……”


  Seeing how intimate the two were being, Pei Ge straightened up in a daze.

  She felt slightly upset deep down inside.

  Clearly, she had given birth to these children and brought them up, so why did they like the man this much?

  As she wondered about this, she did not notice the gentle smile shining her eyes.

  “Baby, come here.”


  When she returned to her senses, she strode to Ji Chi, who was looking enviously at the girl being carried by his father.

  “Was sister good to you today, or did she bully you?”


  She carried the child in her arms and asked him that gently.

  “Sister was nice to me today……”


  The scene of the two carrying a child came as a shock to the housekeeper who was also in charge of taking care of the children.

  Although she had not been working here for long, she knew that the children were her employer’s, while the child her employer was presently carrying belonged to the man.

  Still, when she looked at them, she really could not tell that they were carrying the other’s child!

  They seemed to be carrying their own child.

  Her employer and this good-looking man somehow looked like a married couple, and to be very honest, all three children looked similar.

  Somehow, though, they also did not look like one family.

  Aiya! Her brain must be fried! Regardless, she was just a mere housekeeper!……

  “It turns out that…… Pei Ge is really back, but are you really just here to take revenge on your uncle’s family? He he! I don’t believe so.

  “You b*tch must be thinking of breaking me and Ji Ziming up…… You’re thinking of snatching him away from me again. This time round, I won’t let you off so easily!

  “Even if you’ve really become a formidable person, I’ll still let you know that, if I can defeat you once, I can do it again!”
