869 Thankful to you for appearing in his life. (1/2)

”He he. Ge Ge, ignore him. This awkward old man just wants you to call him dad! Let's ignore him!”

Hearing that, her eyes widened in disbelief.

”D-Dad?!” she said instinctively.

Of course, she was not referring to him; it was just her mumbling to herself out loud, but she did not expect someone to be mistaken.

Immediately after she said that, she saw a certain 'dad' open his mouth to speak.

”En. You're the Ji family's daughter-in-law from here on, so you must take care of your image when you're outside.”

”…” Pei Ge: I wasn't really addressing him earlier…

No matter what, she would call Ji Ziming's parents dad and mom from today onward.

”Mom, since Ge Ge and I are engaged, can we—”

Seeing that they were already engaged, he wanted to at least bring his future wife home!

Alas, before he could finish, he was interrupted by Zhang Manhua.

”Fine, fine, fine. From today onward, my silly girl will be in your hands. You can stay together,” said Pei Ge's mother to him.

”En, I'll definitely take good care of her mom.”

When he heard that, a rare smile formed on his mouth.

…

”See that?! That's your supposed plan. I don't even know what kind of stupid plan you have in mind!”

From afar, Pei Shishi screeched upon witnessing the intimacy between the engaged couple's families.

She swore, unmindful of her image anymore.

Qiao Jingyun looked at the woman beside her and her lips curled up into a disdainful smile as her eyes flashed across with coldness.

”I can't be bothered to explain it to you.”

That woman's turn is over. It's now my turn to execute my next step of plan…

She swept her gaze across the crowd for the man drinking away his sorrows.

Fu Mingxuan.

She refused to believe that that good-for-nothing woman could dodge her intricate plan!

”What do you have in mind, then? No matter how I look at it, everything that you've made me do doesn't seem to be aimed at her. Instead, they seem to be aimed at me!”

Pei Shishi tightly gripped Qiao Jingyun's wrist when the latter ignored her.

This woman, what tricks is she up to this time?!

This woman convinced her to join forces with her in bringing Pei Ge down, but in the end, nothing happened to her cousin, and she got even engaged with Ji Ziming earlier than planned. She heard that their wedding would be held soon, too!

What about her? She had lost her fiancé because of this woman's plan!

Not only that, the Zhou family's partnership with her family was almost ruined by this so-called plan! How could she remain calm?

”What do you have that can entice me to aim for you?” Qiao Jingyun laughed coldly, throwing the other's hand aside.
