Chapter 2013: Are you guys going to fight?
Ji Chi’s eyes turned suspicious at his mother’s words.”Where’s Auntie?” Why don’t I see her?”
PEI GE froze on the spot. They did not tell qu Jingwan that they were coming to United States, and she did not tell Ji Chi that qu Jingwan would not be coming with them. Looking at the boy before her, she choked.
“Ping An, do you believe mommy?”
“Yes.”
Ji Chi nodded, his innocent eyes carrying a hint of anticipation.
‘Ping An, since you believe in mommy, do you believe in grandma too? The Auntie you’re thinking of might not be able to pass for the time being, but she might be here in a few days. ”
Zhang manhua wiped her hands on her apron and continued to smile.”Grandma won’t lie to you. You have to believe mommy, too.”
“Mommy, is what Grandma said true?”
The boy nodded and turned to look at her.
“Yes.”
She let out a muffled groan. She could not tell the boy that qu Jingwan would not be here yet. She did not dare to agitate him further before he received proper treatment from the doctor and physical therapy.
“That’s good. ”
The boy could finally relax.
Zhang manhua waited for the two children to leave the kitchen before pulling up PEI GE, who was still squatting on the floor, and asking softly,”how’s Ping An’s condition now?”
“It’s much better than before. At least he’s willing to call me Mommy now. ”
She felt a little weak, but she could not tell why.
“Why don’t you take Ping An to the doctor this afternoon? Ziming’s handwriting is very famous in the United States you must know some very famous and skilled doctors. You can take Ping An to the doctor. I can take an an at home.”
Zhang manhua’s heart ached for her daughter. She had found out that she was a set of triplets back then, but now, they refused to acknowledge her. Any mother would not be able to accept such a thing. She would not be able to tolerate her child being close to another woman.
“Mom, I know. Don’t worry. I still want to go to the hospital with Ziming in the afternoon and make an appointment with the doctor. The babies have been on the plane for a long time, so I want them to rest well today and take Ping An to the doctor tomorrow. Other than making an appointment with the doctor this afternoon, I’m also planning to visit Xiao Yu. ”
PEI GE stood beside her mother and carefully picked the vegetables. Her slender fingers were like white jade in the green leaves.
“Didn’t gu Zhengrong contact Xiaoyu when she went missing?”
Zhang manhua finally voiced her biggest doubt. Ever since she found out that her best friend had gone missing, no one had picked up her calls. She wondered if he was busy with work or deliberately not picking up.
“I’ve called him, but he can’t get in touch with Xiaoyu.”
PEI GE’s heart was filled with sadness. She could not imagine why her best friend would choose to go missing. In the past, as long as she needed her, Tang Xiaoyu would come to her at all costs to give her strength, but now …
But she could not find her.
“What do you think Xiaoyu ran away from home for? she didn’t call me at all. I’ve gone to her house to look for her, but she’s not there.”
Zhang manhua continued to voice her doubts, completely unaware of the doubt and disbelief in her daughter’s eyes.
“I believe Xiao Yu will be fine. Maybe she’s just unhappy and wants to go out for a walk.”
“That better be the case. If I find out that it’s related to Gu Zhengrong, I won’t let him off. Xiaoyu is half my daughter. When you were back in the country, she was the one who accompanied me, shopped with me, talked to me, and even went to the market to buy groceries. I’m already a half-old woman, and it’s my fortune to have such a good daughter other than you. ”
“Mom, who said you’re old? you’re not old.”
She could tell that her mother was concerned about her and quickly explained.
“I don’t need you to tell me whether I’m old or not. Time has already left its mark on my face. I can’t refuse to accept my old age. ”
Zhang manhua did look Haggard and a little older in the years after PEI GE’s father’s death, but after coming to the United States with PEI GE and living in a new environment, she slowly became more cheerful and regained her vigor and confidence.
However, she knew that in her mother’s heart, as long as the cause of her father’s death was not found, her mother would not be able to sleep well. This was a thorn that pierced both her and her mother’s hearts.
“How are things between you and Ziming? I didn’t even ask you in front of Ziming just now, so why didn’t I see her this time?”
Zhang manhua was still most concerned about her daughter and Ji Ziming’s relationship. She could tell that the man was sincere toward PEI GE, but she could not understand her.
“We’re fine. As for ran ran, she’s probably coming over to stay with us tomorrow because she’s been at loggerheads with Ziming these past two days.”
“Where’s ran ran now, then?”
Zhang manhua cut the fresh chicken into pieces and placed them on a plate. Today, she was going to cook the two grandchildren’s favorite dishes.
“She’s with his mother, his grandmother.”
“Ji Furen has also returned?”
Zhang manhua asked. It turned out that everyone was back today except for Tang Xiaoyu.
“MHM, but we didn’t tell her when we returned to the United States. She probably knows about it by now.”
PEI GE peeled the potato, washed it, and placed it on the chopping board. She was very satisfied when she cut the evenly-proportioned potato shreds.
“Is she still clinging to you and Ziming, then? Would I still try to make things difficult for you?”
Zhang manhua took the vegetables from her and washed them under the tap before asking,”how’s your relationship with Madam Ji?”
“It’s pretty good. We only agreed to let him stay because he only acknowledges qu Jingwan, but Ziming also moved in with the babies and me.”
“Then aren’t you guys going to fight?”
Zhang manhua joked as the fine lines at the corner of her eyes slowly appeared.
“No, it’s just a smokeless war. Women always have some friction. I don’t mind it. For the sake of safety, I’m willing to do anything.”
“Where is she now? is she at the Ji family’s house?”
She shook her head.”At the Ji group’s office, but it’s probably in a mess right now.”
“What do you mean?”
Zhang manhua did not get it immediately and could not understand why this lady would cause such a huge ruckus in the Ji group’s company.
“Ziming asked her to start from the bottom of the Ji group. From what I know of her, she agreed on the surface, but that’s not the case.”
