Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Su Ji held Pei Xingxing’s hand and walked into the house. They saw Pei Yuanyang welcoming them.
“Kaw!”
“Kawkawkaw! ”
‘Ms. Su Ji, Pei Yuanyang has gained weight again recently.” Pei Xingxing looked like he was in a good mood. It was obvious that he was fine.
After school, Su Ji treated him to a good meal. Like a little adult, Pei Xingxing said that he wanted to drink. Su Ji said yes, then ordered a dozen bottles of
Yakult for him, and there was a straw on every bottle.
Pei Xingxing: “…”
Back home, no one mentioned anything related to Sonya in front of Pei Xingxing.
Anna was so happy to see Su Ji and greeted her obediently.
Du Meilan quickly asked the cook to make another bowl of beauty soup.
Pei Song’s words snapped Pei Xingxing out of his depression.
“Are the test results from last week out?”
Pei Xingxing was speechless for the second time today.
In fact, what the Pei family did not know was that when Su Ji took Pei Xingxing out for a big meal, she had already talked to him for an hour about Sonya.
That was why Pei Xingxing was so relaxed.
However, before he could climb up to the high stool at the bar counter to see what delicious food his grandma had prepared, Pei Song grabbed his collar and brought him back to his room to check on last week’s test…
Su Ji sat down at the dining table, opposite Du Meilan and beside Anna.
Pei Yuanyang was taking a beauty nap when Su Ji came earlier today and missed her. She had not seen her mother for a long time. Pei Yuanyang was a little clingy and flew straight to her shoulder. She was like a parrot who liked to stand on people’s shoulders, but…she was much bigger and heavier than a parrot. After moving around to find a good position, it managed to find space.
Anna couldn’t help but laugh.
Du Meilan also felt her mood improve. “Looking at Yuanyang’s reaction, we can know who’s back. Anna is the most attentive.”
Anna scratched her head in embarrassment.
There was still half a bowl of bird’s nest left. Su Ji said she didn’t mind, so she joined them.
Du Meilan remembered what happened to Anna some time ago. She hadn’t had time to ask about it in detail because of Sonya.
“Anna, what did the duke say when he called you?”
The three of them were chatting casually. The atmosphere was relaxed, and there was nothing they could not say.
Anna swallowed the food in her mouth. “Father is very angry and is worried about me. He said that he would take me home after dealing with the people…”
“It’s necessary to clean up the house,” Du Meilan smiled. “But you don’t have to rush to go back. Now that you feel at home here, you can stay for as long as you want.””
Anna was also very disappointed when she mentioned this, and she ate slower.
“But… I don’t want to bother you…”
She did not have a single friend in Continent M. Of course, she did not want to go back, but her father’s protection made her heart warm.
But then again, when her father called her on the plane to Continent M, he was filled with indignation and anger.
Anna talked to him for a while before he calmed down a little. At that time, she was worried that he would do something he would regret in a fit of anger.
She did not expect her father to care about her so much.
However, a few days passed in the blink of an eye. Her father should have arrived in Continent M long ago and should have contacted her again, but…
There was no response.
Just as she was wondering, someone video-called Du Meilan.
Du Meilan looked at her with a strange expression. “Guess who is it?”
Su Ji and Anna looked at her.
Du Meilan smiled. “It’s the duke.”
As soon as she said that, she clicked to accept the invitation. Her phone was held at the side. When the call connected, the duke could see Su Ji, Anna, and the others.
The duke did look a little haggard, but he still looked dignified. There was a badge on his shoulder and a cigar between his fingers. He smiled politely. “Are you having afternoon tea? I hope I didn’t disturb you.”
Du Meilan exchanged a few pleasantries with him.
Anna noticed that her father was in the study. As she observed, she heard her father tell her why he called.
As expected, he wanted to bring Anna home.
Du Meilan was not in a position to say anything, but as they were chatting, a
woman walked past the camera. She came to bring tea to the duke.
Although it was a flash, Su Ji still recognized her.
“Was that the Duchess?”
Du Meilan and Anna: ‘
The woman left after delivering the tea. Although she did not say a word, one could tell from her appearance that she was not a servant.
After Su Ji said that, Du Meilan and Anna immediately recognized her.
This was what the duke meant by dealing with them?
The duke smiled awkwardly. “Anna, don’t worry. I will never let him enter the duke’s mansion again, but your stepmother…she really didn’t know about it…”
He had an anxious look on his face . “After your stepmother found out about this, she chased him out of the house and said that she would cut ties with him. She even said that I had to bring you back and that she wanted to atone for her sins…”
He spoke with sincerity, but Su Ji and the others’ expressions became colder and colder.
“That scumbag is an adult and can take responsibility for his actions. However, when I came back, I scolded her fiercely. Because of this, your stepmother hasn’t eaten for a few days. Anna, when you come back, please try to persuade your stepmother…”
Anna gripped the spoon in her hand tightly and lowered her head.
She had overestimated her position in her father’s heart.
As expected, when there was no hope, there would be no disappointment.
She could imagine her future in the duke’s mansion.
Du Meilan couldn’t stand it anymore and reached for her phone. “Anna can stay at my house. I think you don’t want her back anymore.”
“Ah?” The duke was confused. “What does that mean? I sincerely want to bring her home. Ms. Su, say something. You probably don’t want Anna to be in the
Pei family…”
Du Meilan took the phone and pointed the camera at Su Ji.
Su Ji smiled and said, “scumbag dad.”
At the same time, she gave him the universal sign of disrespect.
“Beautiful.” Du Meilan ended the video call.
The future mother-in-law and daughter-in-law worked together again!!
