“If you look at me with such lecherous eyes again, I can’t guarantee that I won’t beat you up in the car.”
The corners of Ji Ziming’s lips curled up. He, who was in a good mood, looked at Pei Ge with love and affection.
“You’re so annoying!”
Pei Ge sat up straight and scolded. She retracted her gaze and was about to lower her chin when Ji Ziming pulled her back.
Ji Ziming’s voice was low and seductive as his words were filled with sweetness. “Are you planning to let go just like that?”
“Or what? How long do I have to stare at you?”
“A lifetime.”
Ji Ziming stopped the car in the middle of the road domineeringly and willfully. He wrapped his arms around Pei Ge’s neck and harshly kissed her lips. His sexy yet cold voice was heard, “You can forget about escaping from me for the rest of your life.”
When the two of them reached home, the three children were sitting around Auntie Zhang in the kitchen. Their chubby hands gently peeled away the green shell of the soybeans while Ran Ran was competing to see who peeled the most soybeans.
Ran Ran always had the most, because when little Ji Chi was not paying attention, she secretly grabbed a handful from his little basket and placed it in her own. Even the sharp An An did not notice her actions. Auntie Zhang, who was standing not far away, looked at this playful Ran Ran and recalled the first time she saw Ran Ran. She was still an obedient child.
Now, she had become the treasure in the hands of these two boys, and she was the happiest factor of the family.
“Ran Ran, what are you guys doing?”
Entering the house, Pei Ge was attracted by Ran Ran’s laughter from the kitchen. Seeing the three children sitting on the stool and peeling the beans, Pei Ge smiled. “Are you guys competing?”
“That’s right. Mommy, I have the most beans.”
Ran Ran raised her red basket as if she was presenting a treasure. It contained more than twice the amount of Ji Chi’s.
“Sister, don’t think that I didn’t see you grab some beans from Second Brother and place them in your basket.”
An An lowered his head, thinking if he exposed Ran Ran’s lie, she would fight it out with him.
“Nonsense, I didn’t.”
Ran Ran blinked her eyes at Pei Ge and changed the topic. “Mommy, did you see it? Did you see me grabbing beans from second brother’s basket?”
“Mommy just came and didn’t see it, but I think Second Brother is indeed faster than you at peeling beans .”
Pei Ge looked at Ji Chi, who was sitting on the stool silently watching her, and smiled. This was because she had noticed earlier that Ran Ran’s nails were not long while Ji Chi’s nails were slightly longer. His speed at peeling beans was much faster than Ran Ran’s.
“Hmph! Mommy, you’re lying!”
Seeing that Pei Ge was unwilling to help her, Ran Ran could not help but place the basket heavily on the table beside her. “I don’t care. I have the most beans.”
“You took Second Brother’s beans.”
An An was not convinced.
“We agreed that whoever had more beans in the basket would be the champion of the day. I didn’t say who peeled more.”
Ran Ran blinked her eyes slyly. Even if Pei Ge was unwilling to help her, she still had many ways to win today’s competition. As long as she was willing, she would have all sorts of reasons.
An An pursed his lips. He had originally planned to turn a blind eye to Ran Ran’s actions, but now, he no longer had the intention to argue with her. He only said lightly, “It’s easy for you to become the champion. Second brother and I will give it to you because you are our younger sister.”
After An An said that, Ran Ran did not say anything for a while. She only looked at Ran Ran and said, “Brother, won’t you be angry?”
“Why would I be angry? You’re my sister. I won’t be angry.”
An An smiled as she explained. He had already gained the responsibility of an adult.
“Big Brother, since you said that I’m the champion, can I ask you for something?”
An An protecting Ran Ran was one thing, but Ran Ran’s intelligence and craftiness were another.
“Sure, tell me, what do you want?”
“I want your comic book. The one with the dwarf on it.”
An An laughed out loud while Pei Ge, who was standing at the side, smiled at Ran Ran as well. “You went around in circles just to get a comic book from brother?”
“I’m asking him for it openly. I’m a champion. The champion can ask for things.”
Ran Ran refused to admit defeat. They had just admitted that she was the champion, and since she was the champion, she had the right to demand it from An An. Since she was the champion, then what the champion did should not be opposed.
Pei Ge looked at the little lass before her. She was young, but she knew the basics of being the champion.
Pei Ge coughed and looked at An An before continuing, “How about this? Ran Ran, compete with your brothers one more time. Regardless of whether you are the champion or not, mommy will agree to you. Also, let’s each raise a condition for the champion. Mommy will definitely agree.”
“Mommy, are you saying that I’m not the champion anymore?”
Ran Ran blinked, not understanding what she was saying. Her eyes shone with wit and her beautiful eyes resembled Pei Ge’s.
“What mommy means is that you should compete with your brothers again. Whether you’re the champion or not, mommy will reward you. However, you can’t cheat anymore. If you’re not the champion, then mommy will reward that champion too.”
Pei Ge bent down and lightly poked Ran Ran’s nose as she smiled dotingly.
“I see.”
Ran Ran was enlightened.
Of course, Pei Ge gave each of the children a present.
Ran Ran got the comic book she had always wanted, An An got the latest warrior model, and little Ji Chi got the more difficult building look. From the previous dozens to now, there were over two hundred pieces of broken building blocks.
After the family had their dinner and returned to their room to rest, Ji Ziming suddenly received a call from the captain of the bodyguards. His voice was hurried as he said, “CEO, our car was hit by someone. A car suddenly appeared from a blind spot on the mountain, and there was no cctv at that spot.”
“Is anyone hurt?”
Ji Ziming narrowed his eyes and gave a dangerous signal. The person who dared to do such a thing in his territory and was even here to snatch Qu Xiujie was simply looking down on Ji Ziming.
“Mr. Qu is fine. He just fainted. I called the private doctor to go to the hillside mansion.”
The bodyguard chief revealed his plan but was rejected by Ji Ziming.
“Stop looking for private doctors. It’s not safe now.”
