Chapter 2185: The story of The Frog Prince
“You didn’t hear wrong, Mr. Qu. He is indeed my uncle. I’ll find a suitable time to explain the reason to you. I’d like to bring ran ran to the room upstairs.”
She explained once more. Feeling sorry for her daughter, who was lying on the sofa, she told the man,”Ziming, bring her to the room. It’s windy in the living room, so it’s a little cold.”
“Alright,” he said.
Ji Ziming’s deep eyes narrowed as he looked at qu xiujie, who was sitting next to him, and then at his mother. Without saying a word, he carried his daughter up to the second floor.
Just as she reached the fifth step, mother Ji, who was sitting on the sofa, asked her,”Ge Ge, why are you still calling me Auntie? what should you call me?”
“Why did I call you? my Ge Ge hasn’t registered her marriage with your son yet.”
Qu xiujie was the first to provoke her, his eyes filled with dissatisfaction.”Do you still want my Ge Ge to call you ‘mom’?”
“Who told you to speak? I don’t care if you’re Ge GE’s uncle or not, but this is the Ji family. This is my home, and you have to abide by the Ji family’s rules and not speak to me.”
Mother Ji rolled her eyes at him, her voice carrying a hint of dissatisfaction.
“Mom, uncle, stop quarreling. I’ll bring ran ran upstairs. I’ll be back down soon.”
PEI GE looked at the two of them on the sofa in annoyance, her beautiful eyes full of smiles.
“Alright, I’ll be waiting for you. When you come down, you’ll have to explain to me clearly who this old man is.”
Mother Ji nodded as she looked at qu xiujie.
“Who are you calling an old man?”
Qu xiujie had the principle of not laying his hands on women, but when he saw mother Ji’s repeated provocations, he did not think too much about it. He stood up and looked down at her.
His sudden action startled mother Ji. She looked up at him with a fierce look in her eyes.”Why are you standing so high up? are you trying to show off your height?” What’s wrong with me being shorter? I’m older than you!”
The older woman stuck out her leg and hit qu xiujie’s kneecaps, causing him to sit on the sofa. The two of them looked at each other awkwardly.
PEI GE stood on the stairs and looked at the two people in the living room. Her lips curled into a smile, but she merely shook her head and walked up the stairs.
Walking in front of the man, she opened the door to the room first before letting him carry ran ran in. The pink room’s decorations made the girl’s mood change subtly.
“Ran ran, be good. Daddy will get you a glass of water.”
He placed his daughter on the bed, walked to the coffee table on the sofa, and poured her a cup of water. After cooling the water down, he brought a cup of tea that was not too hot to her.
“Daddy, did you add sugar?”
The girl frowned at the cup of tea in his hand. She really did not want to drink the hot water he poured for her.
“You want to add sugar?”
“Yeah, if you don’t add sugar, the water will be bitter.”
The girl’s brows furrowed. Although she wanted to drink water, she did not want to take it from him.
“Be good, ran ran. You’re sick now, so you should drink this warm water. If you want to drink sugar water, you can only drink it after you’ve recovered.”
With a look of unhappiness on her face, she looked at her daughter in surprise. She originally wanted to take advantage of her illness to get her parents to stay by her side, but she did not expect them to demand that her daughter treat her well.
The two did not even agree to a child’s small satisfaction.
“But, mommy, my mouth is bitter …”
The girl choked on her sobs, her delicate eyebrows tinged with the weakness of a sick person as she looked at her daughter with heartache.
“Alright then, can you put some honey in?”
She bent down to look at her daughter’s pretty face.”Ran ran, mommy will get you some honey, okay?”
“Is there only honey?”
The girl finally knew how to hold on to her mother.
“There’s only honey. If you don’t like it, I’ll go to the kitchen and see if there’s anything else you want to eat, okay?”
“No, mommy. Honey it is. Put some honey in the tea.”
“Alright,” he said.
She nodded and patted her daughter’s head. Her hair was soft and gentle, but the corner of the girl’s eyes showed signs of weakness.
“Then wait for mommy here. I’ll go get you some honey.”
She stood up and walked out of her daughter’s room to her own. When she opened the door, she saw an an and Ji Chi sitting on the ground, constructing a huge castle.
“You guys …”
PEI GE was a little surprised to not see an an and Ji Chi the moment she entered the room. It turned out that they were hiding in her room.
“Mommy, why are you back?” she asked.
An an stood up with a hint of surprise in his eyes. According to the time, the two should still be on their way to the office.
“What’s wrong? Can’t mommy come back earlier? Your sister is sick, so of course mommy has to hurry back. ”
She laughed out loud and looked at the two boys. She was hiding something behind her back, but she could not see it, so the two of them clenched their fists even tighter.
“Mommy, can you come in later?” she asked.
An an looked behind him. It took her and Ji Chi half a day to build a castle, and only the pillbox was left to complete the work.
“Okay, I’m here to get some honey. I’ll leave after I’m done. You guys can play. I’ll come in when you call me in, okay?”
She smiled at her two sons. They were the most handsome boys and looked just like Ji Ziming when he was gentle.
“Okay, mommy, where’s your honey? I’ll get it for you.”
An an nodded and asked with a smile.
“It’s okay, mommy can take it herself. You guys have fun. ”
PEI GE waved her hand and walked to the bookshelf to get some honey before leaving her room. Standing at the door, she let out a sigh of relief and looked at the ‘huge project’ on the floor. She really felt that these two cute babies must have prepared this for a long time.
When she reached her daughter’s room, the man was sitting beside her and consoling her.
“But daddy, why doesn’t the princess like the little frog? The little green frog is so cute. ”
Ji Ziming was in the middle of telling his daughter the story of The Frog Prince, but the girl’s confusion left him speechless. She walked up to him and softly answered.
