“Come, Xiao Ji. Eat some more.”

“Okay, auntie.”

“This is good. Try it, Xiao Ji.”

“Thank you.”

“This is cooked by our Ge Ge. Come try it.”

“Sure.”

Pei Ge watched the two at the dinner table and got the feeling that her boyfriend and mother were a family.

“Alright, mom. He has hands and feet; he can take what he wants by himself,” she muttered unhappily.

Mothers knew their daughters best, so when Zhang Manhua saw her daughter pouting, she could guess that the latter was jealous.

“He he! Seriously. You’re jealous of even Xiao Ji.”

“Of course, you’re my mom, but you don’t even put food in my bowl!” her daughter complained.

“Okay, okay. Xiao Ji is also a family now, and in the future, he must call me mom.” Zhang Manhua smiled at the two.

Feeling abashed, Pei Ge blushed at once.

Her eyes peered at the man, trying to gauge his reaction.

Who would have known that he was looking at her, too?

She felt dissatisfied at his calm face.

“Hng!”

She lightly harrumphed and turned her head around. She did not notice that his ears were already pink.

“Mom, what are you saying? What do you mean call you ‘mom’? We’re not even anywhere near this…” she softly muttered.

Zhang Manhua shook her head wryly and regarded him affectionately. “Xiao Ji, when are your parents free?”

“Auntie, my parents are free anytime. You should choose a time that’s convenient for you.”

He coughed softly and repressed the bit of shyness and happiness in him as he looked at her solemnly.

“I’ll choose a time, huh…” She nodded understandingly. After considering it for a while, she suggested, “Let’s have it after the New Year. You should have quite a few relatives, so you must be busy during this holiday.

“So let’s have a family meeting after it.”

“Sure.”

Pei Ge nudged her lips when her mother and boyfriend scheduled a meeting between both families.

“Don’t you guys have to ask me when I’m free?”

“You child, what can you be busy with?” Her mother chuckled amusedly. “Plus, Xiao Ji is your direct superior, so he can decide when you should be free.”

“Mom!” She glared at her exasperatedly.

“What are you glaring at me for? If you don’t believe it, go ask Xiao Ji if you are free by then.” Zhang Manhua beamed at him.

Unexpectedly, he nodded in agreement with her.

“Mhm. She’s free for sure by then.”

“…” For once, looking at the two, Pei Ge understood what it meant by a mother-in-law liking her son-in-law.

She had yet to marry him officially, but her mother was already siding with him like this. If they really got married and built a family eventually, where would she stand?

While this family of ‘three’ was happily dining, a fluffy white ball suddenly rushed over.

“Meow!”

Cute meowing sounded. Before Zhang Manhua could pick Pudding up, the cat stopped beside Ji Ziming and rubbed its head cutely on his leg.

“Meow!”

She was slightly taken aback when the cat acted cutesy to the man.

Although their cat liked doing this, it was not like this just to anyone.

For example, when her friends came over to visit, all of them wanted to play with it, but the cat aloofly and indifferently did not let them touch its body at all.

Hence, when she saw the cat get close to him on its accord, she truly found it to be bizarre.

“That’s strange. Our Pudding is sn.o.bbish, yet it’s actually going to you on its own?”

Pei Ge’s expression froze at once.

Ugh!

If her mom found out that she had been cohabiting with him and not living at the company’s dormitory before, her mother would likely pound her to death.

“Don’t tell me…”

She gulped nervously when her mother swept them with her eyes suspiciously.

Don’t tell me that mom is this sharp? It’s just a cat, yet she can already guess that I’ve lived with Ji Ziming before?!

Amid her extreme anxiety, her mother spoke—

“Xiao Ji gave you Pudding?”

“…” Hoo! She gave a huge sigh of relief inside.

“…” Meanwhile, the man’s brows twitched a little.

“I knew it! Our Pudding isn’t a cat you could be bought anywhere. Xiao Ji, the cat must be your present to my Ge Ge, right?” The further she thought of it, the surer she became of her conjecture; hence, she turned to regard him expectantly.

He nodded and hummed. “Mhm.”

Pei Ge widened her eyes in disbelief at him.

Since when did Pudding become this annoying fellow’s gift? Didn’t his mother buy this cat for me?!

She glared hatefully at him with displeasure.

This slight displeasure lasted until he bid to leave post-dinner.

“Ge Ge, go send Xiao Ji off.”

She followed him toward the staircase.

Pursing her lips slightly, she looked at his lean body and muttered, “Since when did our Pudding become a gift from you? It’s clearly your mom who bought it…”

He amusedly looked at this pet.i.te person following him closely.

He gently held her hand.

“Stupid woman.”

“What stupid woman! Didn’t we have an agreement that you’re not allowed to call me that?”
