“Why? Do you want me to work harder so that we can have three more children?”
Ji Ziming looked at Pei Ge with his cold eyes. His voice was gentle yet seductive. It was close to Pei Ge’s eardrums and he instantly saw that her fair ears had turned pink and tender like fresh peaches. It was so alluring.
“No, you want to give birth to three more? Wouldn’t that be killing me?”
Pei Ge’s voice was low as she was pressed down by Ji Ziming. She did not dare to say that she was unwilling. However, she was really shocked by his words this time. She thought that she had just seen Ji Ziming through a sea of people, but she did not expect that this man would actually accompany her through so many difficult and happy times in her future life.
Perhaps the heavens were fair. When you lost something, they would give you something new as compensation.
As long as it was Ji Ziming, Pei Ge felt that her life was complete.
The romantic morning exercise slowly unfolded in the sunny morning. By the time they were both drenched in sweat and Pei Ge was already exhausted, Ji Ziming was in high spirits. He looked at her from top to bottom and asked softly, “Ge Ge, will you marry me?”
“Marry?”
She tilted her head slightly and looked into his eyes. Unknowingly, the uneasiness in her heart rose.
“Yes, let’s get married. I want to give you a wedding that no one else can give you, okay? As long as we are fine, you will be my wife. I will support you no matter what you want to do. You don’t have to worry. There will still be people who are unfriendly to you. I can help you settle the Qu family’s matters.”
He caressed her hair and comforted her. “I know that you’re feeling uneasy and I know what you’re thinking. It’s alright. I can wait. I can wait as long as you want. I can wait until you’re willing to marry me, until you really want to be with me.”
Ji Ziming rested his chin on Pei Ge’s head and looked out of the window at the bright sun. It was such a good day to hold a grand wedding.
“Ziming, can we wait a little longer? Although Old lady Qu has been imprisoned, I don’t want to hold a wedding so soon. I’m your woman and everyone in the capital knows that. You don’t have to worry. I know that you won’t have to wait too long for your grand wedding. I still want to be your prettiest and happiest bride.”
She closed her eyes and leaned against his chest, greedily inhaling his fresh scent. It was strange that such a scent could make her temporarily forget about the pain and remind her of those happy days. It was strange that Ji Ziming had become so important in her heart. It was so important that she believed that there would be someone like him by her side forever. It was so important that she could smile blissfully.
“Alright, Ge Ge. I’ll listen to you. You can do whatever you want. I’ll believe you.”
“Ziming, thank you for staying by my side and waiting for me.”
“Silly girl. You’ve waited for me for so long. How can I not wait for you? You’re my wife, the only woman I have in my life. You’re the only one by my side.”
“Sure, I’ll always be by your side.”
Ji Ziming caressed the top of Pei Ge’s head gently and meticulously. The warmth in his hand traveled from her hair to her cheeks as he said softly, “Ge Ge, you have to be by my side for the rest of your life, okay?”
“Sure, I’ll be by your side.”
She placed her hands on his chest and inhaled his fresh scent.
The two lay on the bed for a while before they got up and went downstairs. The three children playing on the sofa in the living room looked up at the two of them and Ran Ran spoke first, “Mommy, did you and daddy just wake up? We called you guys but you didn’t reply.”
Pei Ge blushed and glanced at Ji Ziming, only to realize that his eyes were calm and did not reveal any emotions.
“Ah… that, Daddy and Mommy…”
Pei Ge wanted to beat around the bush, but she could only laugh awkwardly before Ji Ziming pulled her into his embrace. His gentle voice came from above her. “Mhm, Daddy and Mommy just woke up. Did you guys behave yourselves? If not, Daddy and Mommy would have to check your homework.”
Upon hearing that they had to check their homework, the three children looked up and said proudly, “We’ve finished it. Daddy and Mommy, you can check however you want.”
Pei Ge took a deep breath and looked at the three children downstairs in shock. “You mean you guys are done? So when we were sleeping in the morning…”
“Yes, Mommy. This bit of homework is nothing to us.”
Ran Ran patted her chest and said righteously, “Oh, right, mommy, I still want to ask you. Didn’t you wake us up in the morning? How did you sleep until now? What did you and daddy do in the room? Could it really be…”
Hearing this, Pei Ge’s face turned red. Looking at the three children downstairs, she coughed and said, “Ran Ran, why are you so curious? Didn’t mommy tell you to show your homework to mommy once you’re done?”
Pei Ge blushed. Ji Ziming, who was beside her, was very satisfied with his wife. He leaned closer to her ear and whispered, “Do you think they will feel shy if I tell them how we did our “exercise”?”
Pei Ge suddenly turned around and punched Ji Ziming’s chest. “If you dare to tell them this, I won’t let you off. If you don’t listen to me and say this, I can’t guarantee that you…”
“Alright, I know. It’s not suitable for children. Don’t worry, I won’t tell them. Even if I want say, I’ll do it on bed with you, how can we tell the children?”
