However, the man did not expect his daughter not to show him any pity.
Instead, she blinked her eyes in seeming understanding and gave a very adult-like reason. “Oh! Daddy’s proposal must not have been romantic enough so mommy didn’t agree to marry you!”
“…”
The corner of Ji Ziming’s lips twitched at the words spoken by his daughter in her cute voice.
“Pfft!”
Pei Ge burst out laughing upon seeing how he was stunned by their little girl’s remark.
Good job! You are indeed my daughter!
Her lips trembled as she repeated her daughter’s words with a big grin.
“That’s right! You didn’t give me a romantic proposal, so why would I agree to marry you?”
Who knew, though, that the man’s eyes would light up upon hearing this?
A light smile then appeared on his cold features.
“Then, if my proposal is romantic enough, will you marry me?”
“Ugh…”
She choked on her saliva as she glared at him, muttering, “This is just one of the criteria.”
He lightly nodded at this, seemingly not minding the pride she had displayed.
“Okay. I’ll definitely give you the most romantic wedding proposal.”
He spoke this with much sincerity and seriousness that he appeared to be making a promise.
If those who knew him were to see this, they would likely think they were seeing things.
Who would have thought that this unfeeling king of the capital would be this gentle when facing his beloved woman? He even appeared to be at her beck and call.
“I believe daddy!”
“I believe daddy, too!”
Both kids widened their eyes expectantly at their mother.
Their expression seemed to be saying, ‘Mommy, just say yes to daddy and marry him fast!’
She coughed lightly under her children’s expectant look and picked up her chopsticks to give them some soup dumplings.
“Hurry up and eat! I’ll bring you guys to your grandma after breakfast!”
The two children’s attention was immediately drawn to their grandmother upon hearing her words and cast aside all thoughts of marriage between their parents as they focused on finishing their breakfast fast in hopes of seeing their grandmother earlier.
Pei Ge also picked up her bowl to eat her porridge when the kids obediently started eating.
Meanwhile, other than being their personal chef, Ji Ziming also served the three at the table.
Between serving main and side dishes, he looked very busy.
It was such a ical sight that the trio’s hearts were filled with warm happiness.
After their enjoyable breakfast, the adults prepared to visit Zhang Manhua.
Who would have expected that, just before they left, the woman would receive a call from her best friend’s parents?
“Ge Ge, h-hurry here… Xiaoyu mitted suicide.”
Hearing the choked voice on the other end, her face instantly paled, as though having suffered from a huge shock, and the phone in her hand almost slipped.
She… mitted suicide?
