Chapter 188: Chapter 188 Concern from Qin Nanyu

"Sure, it’s just that my husband and I aren’t very educated and we haven’t been exposed to much of the world. We’re afraid we might be a bother if we go to the Ji Family Villa."

"You’re being too modest. You raised Weitian, and for that, the Ji Family is truly grateful. In the past, Mofeng was too busy to pay much attention, but now that he has some time, he has been thinking about getting our families together to bond and get to know each other better so that there will be no more misunderstandings."

Su Sumei moved forward smilingly, taking Lin Ci’s hand, "Don’t you agree?"

Lin Ci: "...Yes, what you’re saying is right."

Ji Weitian had no chance to refuse the entire time.

Su Sumei knew exactly how to exploit her weakness, using moral coercion on Shen Yixian and Lin Ci. Once Shen Yixian and Lin Ci had agreed to go to the Ji Family, Ji Weitian had no choice but to follow them with Little Glutinous Rice Dumpling in her arms.

All the way there, the limousine was filled with Su Sumei’s voice.

Flitting around like a social butterfly, she invented topics of conversation.

Shen Yixian and Lin Ci sat stiffly in the car, afraid to chime in lest they misspeak and embarrass their daughter.

They would only respond reluctantly when Su Sumei pressed with her questions.

Meanwhile, nestled in Ji Weitian’s arms, Little Glutinous Rice Dumpling, holding his cat, puckered his lips and bluntly muttered, "So noisy."

His voice was neither loud nor soft, just enough to be heard by everyone in the car.

Su Sumei couldn’t conceal her embarrassment, wanting to lash out but knowing it would seem petty over a four-year-old’s comment.

Saying nothing didn’t feel right, but neither did responding, so she craftily remarked, "This child is really spirited, and so quick-witted. Doesn’t take after Weitian much, I wonder who he does resemble."

It was common knowledge that a child resembles either their mother or father, yet everyone knew Ji Weitian had been a mother out of wedlock.

Su Sumei’s words were a barely-veiled reminder to everyone of Ji Xingyao’s uncertain paternity.

Little Glutinous Rice Dumpling was not pleased.

His cherubic face turned upward as he puffed out his cheeks, setting the cat down.

Just as he was about to send Fatty to bite Su Sumei, he suddenly heard Ji Mofeng scolding, "Xingyao is only four years old. Are you also only four? If you can’t speak properly, then speak less. No one will think you’re mute."

Catching a glimpse of Su Sumei’s momentarily chagrined expression, that’s when Little Glutinous Rice Dumpling contentedly pressed down on Fatty’s head which was ready to pounce.

Picking the cat up again,

he settled back into Weitian’s arms to sleep.

Soon, the car arrived at the Ji Family Villa.

As soon as Ji Weitian stepped out, her phone rang.

Looking down, she saw a text from Qin Nanyu asking where she was.

Remembering the awkward moment they’d separated that morning, Ji Weitian glanced at the message, feeling irrationally guilty, and shoved her phone back into her pocket without replying.

As soon as she ignored Qin Nanyu’s text, his call followed immediately.

Ji Weitian panicked and hung up on him.

Regaining her composure, she bit her lip.

Caught between calling him back or returning his text, she chose to text him back.

Telling Qin Nanyu she was at the Ji Family Villa, she then bent down to lift Little Glutinous Rice Dumpling and stepped into the Ji Family Villa.

It was Shen Yixian and Lin Ci’s second visit to the Ji Family; the first time they came was to plead with the family not to take their daughter from them... Though some time had passed, upon stepping into the Ji Family Villa, the wave of intimidation that greeted them still made them feel uneasy.

Su Sumei advanced opportunely, assuming the role of the hostess, and smilingly said, "Please, sit down everyone. The kitchen isn’t quite ready, but we’ll be starting the meal shortly."
