Without dawdling anymore in the zoo, Wu Wang dragged Yang Ziyi straight to the car. He knew if they stayed for another moment, this girl would definitely start a brawl.
When they both got inside the car, Yang Ziyi’s brows were drawn together pensively.
"What were you thinking?" Wu Wang couldn’t help but question her. No matter what she was a girl and she shouldn’t be this proactive.
"I was reminding myself to stay calm. I really didn’t want to beat those bastards." Her eyes were blazing like fire.
"That was you being calm?" He asked scornfully.
"Look you might not know but it takes a total of 42 muscles to frown and move on but we only need 4 muscles to lift our arm and slap the bastards like them and feel victorious. Us ladies should know which one to choose."
Wu Wang gaped at her in disbelief.
"You are a grown up and you should be able to have enough patience in you to ignore such cr-ap." He suggested since he found her actions a bit aggressive and impulsive. If those boys were not immature, she could have been the one facing the loss.
Yang Ziyi dusted off the non-existent dust from her shoulder with swag and said, "I was too sober to take that sh*t."
Wu Wang had the urge to pull someone’s hair. It was a good thing that his phone’s ringtone distracted him. He attended the call and put it on speaker. "What’s up, Xiao Mey?"
"Wang Ge, your mother is being unreasonable right now." Xu Mey’s upset voice came from the other side making him frown. Since when did his mother empress and Little Mey had started having arguments? That’s one of the miracles of his life!
"What happened?"
"I was gonna invite Auntie Manman for the dinner but your mother here is not letting me call her." At Xu Mey’s complain, Wu Wang was even more perplexed. It was a dinner for Li Qiao and if his own mother won’t be there then wouldn’t that be weird?
Before he could speak again, he heard his own mother’s voice, "I’m definitely not being unreasonable. That Li Man actually dared to call me at midnight just to gloat."
"Gloat about what?" Wu Wang had a hint about her answer but he still asked nonetheless.
"Obviously she was gloating about the fact that even Li Qiao is gonna get married now but my own son is still like a broken shoe." Wu Wang pressed his lips together while Yang Ziyi burst out laughing.
Wu Wang didn’t mind it at all though, he was actually amused. "Maa, even you call me a broken shoe." He reminded Fan Bingbing.
Fan Bingbing snorted from the other side and added, "Of course I do! Because you are a broken shoe. There is no doubt about that. But only I have the right to call my son a broken shoe. How dare she insult my son?"
Although Fan Bingbing’s way of defending her son’s pride was quite peculiar, Yang Ziyi still found it heart-warming.
"Maa, for now, let’s not dwell into this matter. It’s a good day for Qiao, don’t spoil it for his sake. Let Xiao Mey invite Auntie Manman."
Fan Bingbing grumbled a bit incoherently before agreeing, "Fine! I’ll listen to you."
"Thanks, Wang Ge, you’re the best! Oh, and get here ASAP!" Xu Mey hung up the call with this reminder.
Wu Wang was smiling softly to himself as his mood had been lifted up by the two most gorgeous and amazing ladies in his life.
Yang Ziyi looked at the side of his face before saying, "Now I finally know why you guys are so petty and childish."
Wu Wang gazed at her through his peripheral vision before agreeing, "Yes, you are right. We got our pettiness and childishness from our equally petty and childish parents. There is no doubt about that."
Yang Ziyi’s smile widened, "Your parents are friends with each other?"
Wu Wang nodded gently. "You can say our families had been friends for generations now. The bond is deeper than people can understand."
Getting all intrigued by this news, Yang Ziyi shifted in her seat to face him. "So, your parents must like to compare their children all the time, right?"
"Is there still any doubt about that?" They had seen their parents being on a whole new level of pettiness. "They have a wechat group just for parents. You can’t possibly imagine what happens in that group."
Recalling something, he chuckled and added, "Do you know what’s my mom’s nickname on wechat?" Yang Ziyi shook her head in negation. "She’s named, ’Proud Momma’. Haha..."
"Why is it funny?" Yang Ziyi didn’t understand his reason to laugh. She thought his mother must be proud of her kids.
"You think that she’s proud of her kids, don’t you?" She nodded in reply. "Wrong! You can’t possibly be more wrong. My mother has never been proud of my any achievements in life. She simply didn’t care about grades and stuff."
"Then how is she a proud momma?" She was more curious to know now.
"Shen, Qiao, and even Jian, all are the only child of their family. Xiao Mey has a step sister but we don’t count her so, even she’s all alone. I, on the other hand, had originally two sisters." Seeing her frowning, he grinned. "She’s proud of having three kids. And that’s the height of my mother’s simplicity in life."
Yang Ziyi stared at him dumbfoundedly.
"Your mother is one of a kind." She remarked. She really found Wu Wang’s mother to be amusing.
"She gave up her career for the sake of her kids. Especially to take care of Weiwei, isn’t it obvious that she’s one of a kind. I know she’s childish but I love her like that. I can’t possibly imagine my mother being normal. That’d be too boring." There were immense love, gentleness, and respect in his eyes and it was completely seen through by Yang Ziyi.
