The next morning, just as Pei Ge roused from her sleep and left her bedroom, she heard knocking at her door.
Rubbing her eyes and still not fully awake, she walked toward the door.
“Who is it? Knocking on the door this early in the morning…”
Since it was still pretty early, she knew that the person knocking at the door was not her assistant.
However, she did not see anyone when she opened the door.
She lowered her head while feeling about this and saw a small figure standing right at her doorstep.
“Baby?!”
Her eyes widened in shock when she saw the adorable child standing there.
“Why are you here?!”
She looked at the child in disbelief and perplexity.
“Mommy!”
The child flew right into her embrace as a cute smile lit up his face.
She only returned to her senses when the child hugged her thigh tightly.
“Why are you here? Who brought you here?”
Logically speaking, the Ji family doted on this child so it was impossible for him to come here alone.
“The one who brought me—”
The child was interrupted by an aloof voice.
“I brought him here.”
Lifting her head, she saw a tall and lean figure before her eyes.
“Ji Ziming?”
Her eyes widened. The appearance of the child was shocking enough, and… this man standing at her doorstep made her feel even more shocked.
Although she had faintly guessed that he would not let her go easily, she also reckoned that this man would be unable to look for her so quickly with the Ji elders stopping him…
“Are you so shocked to see me?”
The man raised a brow as he stared intensely at her.
“…No.”
She pursed her lips and, for a moment, did not know what to say, but the man did not wait to hear her opinion and just went past the door and walked straight to her apartment.
“Hey! Y-You can’t just enter my house without my permission!”
Seeing him enter her apartment so openly, she quickly carried the child and chased after him.
“I’m here to prepare breakfast for you.”
He curled his lips when he saw her stopping him from going further.
“I don’t need you to prepare breakfast for me; I…”
Although she was unclear on why he came to her house early in the morning with his child, Egger was not here right now, and if this man ventured further, then her lie about being married would be exposed!
Hence, she could not let him in and have him prepare breakfast! She should send him out right now!
Who knew, though, that it would be so difficult to send him out?
No matter what she said, he still headed straight into the kitchen.
“Hey, Ji Ziming! Wait—”
