“Then, I’ll reluctantly be a good husband and a father!”
“Pfft!”
Pei Ge almost spat out the water in her mouth when she heard him joke .
However, when her gaze shifted onto Ji Ziming’s perfect face, she realized that he was not joking at all .
What he said might sound like a joke, but he was serious about it .
“My darling good husband and father, can you give me a chance to be a good wife and a mother?”
She smiled at him, her eyes gentle and tender .
“Of course, you can . ”
With eyes full of affection, he smiled in return as well .
Just like this, the two sitting under the canopy looked at each other endearingly . A breeze blew slowly at the canopy, bringing with it the smell of the sea .
From afar, one could tell that the two within the thin veil were very much in love with each other .
Alas, an unperceptive person was bound to interrupt this romantic moment .
“Ziming, Miss Pei, are you guys having lunch?”
Just as the two were enjoying each other’s company, an unwanted guest spoke and interrupted the romance in the air .
Pei Ge snapped back to her senses and looked at the origin of the voice . She was not in the least bit surprised to see Qiao Jingyun appear before them in a deep V-shaped, white floral beach dress .
“What a coincidence; is Miss Qiao having a walk after lunch?”
Her lips curled into a grin .
She had started disliking this woman ever since learning that she had feelings for her fiancé .
After all, although she was generous, it only extended to those not eyeing her man!
“He he! Look at what Miss Pei is saying; it’s still early, so I of course haven’t had my lunch yet . ”
Qiao Jingyun grinned at her openly .
“I’m very famished right now . I see that you both can’t finish these many dishes; why not—” Let me help you with some?!
Unexpectedly, the man cut her off midway .
“Jingyun, I only prepared food for two, and my fiancée’s appetite has always been big . ”
He astutely rejected what she wanted to suggest, yet this fiancée of his found his reason for doing so to be hilarious .
She was quite happy that he rejected the woman without hesitation, but the reason he gave left her speechless as it tarnished her image by a bit .
Qiao Jingyun, for her part, was stunned by his rejection .
Still, she was much better than Pei Ge as she quickly regained her senses .
“Ah, if that’s the case, I really haven’t eaten, and it seems that I can only settle it myself!”
She smiled at him and did not pursue the topic .
“I’ll leave you two alone now; enjoy your meal, guys!”
She quickly left the canopy and confidently strode away .
Pei Ge nudged her lips and became downcast as she watched the woman leave elegantly .
She was obviously the winner in this, but… the woman’s reaction made it seem as if it were the opposite .
“Alright . Stop looking and eat . ”
Ji Ziming saw her dazedly looking at the woman getting further away and lightly knocked on the table to get her attention .
She looked at her darling boyfriend .
“Why won’t you let me look at her?”
For a moment, the man scooping soup for her did not know what to say to his fiancée who was obviously venting her frustration on him .
“Don’t think about all this nonsense . Come have some soup . ”
Seeing his gentle and loving look, all the anger and frustration in her vanished at once .
Forget it; anyway, Ziming doesn’t like that Qiao woman and merely treats her as his benefactor . The one whom he loves is me . Plus, not only am I his girlfriend and fiancée, I am also his future wife, so I really have nothing to worry about .
“Is it good?”
“Yes! Really tasty! I really love you to death!”
Using binoculars to spy on the couple that was on good terms just like before, Qiao Jingyun narrowed her eyes and pouted unhappily .
It was no wonder people said that those deeply in love could not be separated .
It was even more so for a man who was in love for the first time; no matter how proud and aloof he was, he would always put his mighty self away in front of the woman he loved .
At this thought, she felt heartache .
“Ji Ziming… you will definitely be mine . ” As if a mantra, she kept repeating these words .
She did her best to calm her emotions, and not before long, her confident look reappeared .
Pei Ge, be happy while you still can because you don’t have much time left to be happy…
After having a sumptuous and romantic lunch, the couple strolled on the beach hand in hand .
Pei Ge kept rubbing her tummy while leaning her head on his shoulder .
“Ziming, when are we returning home? After today, tomorrow will be exactly one week since our departure . ”
“Are you that anxious to return home?”
Ji Ziming arched a brow as a depressed look crept across his face .
Although a workaholic as well, he had this strong urge to leave everything behind and live the rest of his life here with her .
“It’s not that I’m anxious to return, but we really have work to do . You can’t just let your father do all the work for you . ” She looked earnestly at him .
“Alright . I’m scared of you . Let’s return tomorrow . ”
Once she received his affirmative answer, a bright smile appeared on her face .
“Mhm . ”
We’re finally heading home tomorrow…
Although she could not bear to leave this place, she felt way happier going back home .
Mom, wait for me; I’m coming home!
