“Are you serious about that Miss Pei?”

Father Ji gently clasped Mother Ji’s hand when he saw her receive a shock and looked at their son in all seriousness.

He still could not believe that his son, who had always been cold toward women, would suddenly announce that he was in a relationship!

Even though that woman seemed not to…

“Mhm. I’m serious.” Placing his coffee cup down, Ji Ziming looked at his parents and calmly confirmed this.

“I’m dating her with marriage in mind, so please don’t send me on any more blind dates.”

“Hubby, looks like that Miss Pei is an outstanding woman, or our son won’t be this in love with her!” A genuine smile blossomed on Mother Ji’s face when she saw how serious Ji Ziming looked.

“What good woman?! She just a commoner’s daughter, yet she has the audacity to seduce our son!” Father Ji coldly snorted, his voice filled with despise. He already set his mind to hate that woman named Pei before he even met her.

In his eyes, that woman was just like that other woman; she was only with his son because of his status and background.

“Honey, how can you say that?” Mother Ji frowned disapprovingly.

“Hmph! Am I wrong? Your son never has a good eye for woman. Don’t you know that—” He did not get to finish his words as his son coldly interrupted him.

“Dad, Pei Ge is my girlfriend. Only I can decide her worth,” he said firmly. “All in all, she is the woman I chose. Your approval means nothing to me.”

Silence descended in the living room the moment these words left his mouth.

“B*stard!” Father Ji’s eyes blazed open at this, and he severely reprimanded, “You little brat! Do you think you are that outstanding?! Your present girlfriend may very well be my future daughter-in-law, so she needs to earn my approval first!”

Mother Ji, for her part, was full of excitement.

Aiya! My son is really in love this time! He’s even willing to stand up to his father for that woman he loves! How chivalrous!

Aiya! My precious son is too dashing!

“I understand.” With that, Ji Ziming got up off the sofa and walked out.

“You! You! You brat! I’m your father; don’t I have any say in this?! I’ll never acknowledge that girlfriend of yours!” He jumped to his feet in a fit of rage when his son simply walked away without giving him any face.

All the air of elegance had left him at this moment, and he was wholly transformed into a normal father angered by a stubborn son.

Mother Ji, on the flipside, had a completely different reaction. She excitedly yelled after Ji Ziming’s back, “Son, when will you bring your girlfriend home for dinner?!”

“Honey!” Father Ji immediately felt awkward when his precious wife spoiled the stage he had painstakingly set.

“Love, let’s not be the kind of parents that interfere with our children’s relationship, alright? Our Ming Ming finally fell in love with someone, so don’t you go ruining it!” She tried to convince him not to meddle in their son’s love life despite the wronged look on her husband’s face.

“Hmph!” he coldly harrumphed and replied stubbornly, “What good lady can your son find? Just look at him now; he’s already fighting with me over that woman. She might bring trouble if she marries into our family.”

“Pui!” Mother Ji burst into laughter at her husband’s words. “Looks like my darling is jealous of his future daughter-in-law.”

“What nonsense!” He shook his head in amusement.

“Alright, Darling, we must give her a chance to prove herself. Let’s meet her first before we decide on whether she’s a good woman or not. What if our son really has his eye on a good lady?” she teased with twinkling eyes.

At his wife’s advice, the frown on his forehead slowly eased.

“Hmph! You spoil your son too much! He actually chose a woman that doesn’t even belong to a nouveau riche family!” Although he had already conceded defeat, his mouth was not ready to surrender just yet.

“Darling, do you think that our son needs the status of others? Alright. Stop thinking too much. His happiness is all that matters. We only have this one son! You’re forbidden from doing anything that can bring our precious son heartache! I won’t stand it if you make a fuss!” Her face lost its smile and adopted a stern look as she regarded her husband.

“I know; I know. I’m just doing this for his sake, alright?” He helplessly squeezed her hand the instant her smile disappeared.

“Good. Once you two calm down, I will invite this Miss Pei over for a meal. We’ll then get to know her.” She grinned gently.

“Mhm.” Fatigue plagued Father Ji’s eyes as he nodded.

“Have an open heart; our son is not as stupid as you think…”

…

While the Ji family was busy making a fuss about Pei Ge, the latter had long drifted off to dreamland.

She was wholly unaware that a couple was discussing about her and Ji Ziming on the opposite end of the capital.

She was even more unaware that, in the near future, she would be meeting the parents of a particularly annoying fellow. She was simply deep in her sweet dreams!
