  However, she did not know how to console her and could only stop what she was doing. She watched as Mao Nana cut the vegetables in her hand with a kitchen knife. The cut was very thin and was very suitable for making a vegetable salad.

  “Then tell me how I should think.”


  Mao Nana harrumphed. When Qu Xiujie was mentioned, the anger in her heart could escalate Yet, at this moment, the man on the topic did not feel anything and was still doing his own things in the room.

  “It’s fine as long as you don’t get close to my uncle. Try to stay away from him.”


  Pei Ge pursed her lips and smiled. The moment she said that, Zhang Manhua walked out of the kitchen and saw the two of them standing in the kitchen. “You guys are here.”


  “Mom, what are you doing? It smells so good!”


  The moment Zhang Manhua walked out and opened the door to the cubicle, the aroma of food wafted out.

  “These are all your favorites.”


  Zhang Manhua smiled. Looking at the way the two interacted, she knew that there was no need for her to explain herself. As long as two women were together, they would have a chance to get to know each other.

  “Sister Manhua, are you making braised lion’s head?”


  Mao Nana was very experienced. When she sniffed, it was as if she had already seen the delicious food.

  “Aiyo, Nana is so smart. That’s right, it’s braised lion’s head. This is your favorite Chinese dish.”


  Zhang Manhua wiped her hands and smiled as she looked at Pei Ge and Mao Nana. “Why are you two together? Where are the other two?”


  “Two of them went upstairs to discuss something while the other took care of the children in the living room. Only the two of us are left to assist you.”


  Pei Ge explained with a smile. She did not mention that the two men had gone upstairs to discuss something. Before she was certain of Mao Nana’s motive for staying in the house, it was best not to tell her.

  “Is that so? Then, come in and help me bring the dishes to the dining table outside. There are already several dishes prepared in the kitchen.”


  Under her mother’s command, the Manchu Han Imperial Feast was soon ready.

  When Pei Ge went upstairs to call Ji Ziming and Qu Xiujie, they happened to mention the accident that happened to Pei Ge’s father.

  “Don’t you think it looks like it’s done by Old lady Qu?”


  “Also, something happened to Pei Ge in front of the aquarium.”


  “If it’s like what you’ve said, then they probably already have their own solution.”


  “If there really is, I won’t be afraid.”


  “That’s right. You are Ji Ziming and the sky of the capital. If even you are afraid, then I’m afraid no one can stop Old lady Qu.”
……

  Pei Ge did not continue listening and pushed open the door to enter. “Let’s go down and eat. We can talk after eating.”


  “Ge Ge, did you say something to Mao Nana that you shouldn’t have?”


  Qu Xiujie looked up and asked with a smile.

  “Uncle, don’t you know what I said? You were still listening when we started talking.”


  Pei Ge smiled. She had long noticed Qu Xiujie’s tone and realized that when Mao Nana was complaining about Qu Xiujie’s actions to her, he was waiting for them to finish speaking. However, after listening for a while, he realized that Pei Ge did not say anything to Mao Nana and he closed the door to discuss with Ji Ziming.

  “How did you know that I was standing on the second floor?”


  Qu Xiujie was surprised but did not show it on his face.

  “Of course, I know. Not only do I know, I also know everything you and Ziming said.”


  Pei Ge pursed her lips and smiled. “How is it, Uncle? This Mao Nana is not bad. Don’t you want her to stay?”


  “Why should she stay? I don’t want a stranger to appear at home.”


  Qu Xiujie lowered his head and flipped through the magazine.

  “I don’t think so. I don’t think she’s a stranger to you. I think that in your heart, you want her to stay and accompany you.”


  Her gentle voice warmed Ji Ziming’s ears.

  “Ge Ge, let’s stay here tonight.”


  Ji Ziming’s voice was cold, but his eyes were filled with love.

  “Stay here?”


  Pei Ge sounded surprised but Qu Xiujie, who was even more surprised than her, could not sit still.

  “Why are you guys staying here? This house is so small; how can it accommodate so many people?”


  Qu Xiujie’s expression was normal but there was another meaning in Pei Ge’s eyes. It was as though he had changed completely. The more Qu Xiujie was unwilling to do what they wanted to do, the more they wanted to do it and do it when Qu Xiujie could not control it.

  “Uncle, you don’t have to worry about us staying here. Although this house is small, every room has its own washroom. You don’t have to worry at all. You don’t have to be afraid.”


  Pei Ge laughed out loud. Looking at Qu Xiujie’s nervous expression, she suddenly wanted to let Mao Nana see if Qu Xiujie was still as she thought.

  “How can you guys stay in the house? You should go to the Ji family’s villa. It’s big and comfortable there. Why must you guys suffer like this? Seriously, young people are so insensible.”


  Qu Xiujie looked unwilling and his stubble showed his unwillingness.

  “Uncle, we’re only staying here for one night and you’re already this unhappy? If I tell you that I plan to stay here for a week, will you chase me away too?”


  Pei Ge explained jokingly. She wanted to see how Qu Xiujie’s expression would change but she did not know if Mao Nana was the most important person in his heart.

  “I don’t dare to chase you away. This house is yours. If you want to leave, it’s me. How can your master leave?”


  Qu Xiujie’s eyes were filled with sorrow. He, who wanted to see Pei Ge and Ji Ziming change their minds, felt that it was very difficult. It was just that he, Qu Xiujie, had never felt that there was no way to resolve anything that was difficult.

  If there was no solution, he would create one.

  “Uncle, can you tell me the truth? What are you thinking? Mao Nana is a good girl. What do you think is wrong with her?”


  She was unsure.
