"Tell me, did you cause such a scene at the birthday party with your child because you were targeting Ji Xinqi? Or do you have a grudge against the Ye family and want to use this to sabotage the marriage between the two families?"

Ye Nanqing's dark eyes narrowed slightly, and his question, word by word, was so sharp that it seemed to pierce through Ji Fuling's heart.

Many people in Yuncheng are wary of the marriage alliance between the Ji and Ye families.

The reason for their apprehension is simply that they fear the two families will become even more powerful after the marriage, and monopolize the economy of Yuncheng.

So it's not surprising that some people would sabotage things for their own benefit.

Ji Fuling: "..."

To be interrogated and exposed like this right after returning home is truly an inauspicious start.

Of course, all of this was thanks to the little girl next to me who had completely forgotten her mistake and was innocently eating a lollipop!

"Staying silent at a time like this won't do you any good, understand?"

The man's high-pitched voice carried a hint of danger, giving Ji Fuling the feeling that if she didn't confess, she wouldn't be able to leave this room that night.

This guy is under someone else's roof, and he can't beat him in a fight. What else can he do if he doesn't back down?

Ji Fuling now is a pragmatic person.

She shrugged. "Fine, I might as well tell you. I have a grudge against Ji Xinqi, but as for the Ye family, I have no intention of targeting them."

What is your relationship with Ji Xinqi?

Ye Nanqing continued to press, his gaze towards Ji Fuling seemingly tinged with interest.

Ji Fuling exchanged a glance with him and said mysteriously, "Well, you'll find out soon enough."

The Ji family and the Ye family are old friends, and the two old men have a very good relationship and often visit each other, so she and Ye Nanqing will meet again sooner or later.

When the time comes, Ye Nanqing will naturally find out her identity.

Turning away from her gaze, Ji Fuling took her daughter's little hand and said, "Come back with Mommy."

Ji Tiantian thought about how naughty she had been earlier and how she would definitely be scolded when she got back. Besides, there were so many delicious snacks here, and a handsome and good-looking uncle. She didn't want to go back so soon.

Thinking this, the little girl bravely shook off her mother's hand, ran towards a man, tugged at his trouser leg, and sweetly asked, "Handsome uncle, I want to play with you again. Can I stay here tonight?"

Hearing this, Ji Fuling was so angry she laughed.

She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down. "Sweetie, you're being disobedient again, aren't you?"

Ye Nanqing raised his hand and patted the little girl's head. "Sweetie, it's late now. You should go home with Mommy first, and come play with Uncle again next time."

For some reason, he had a strange fondness for this little girl.

Ji Fuling was somewhat taken aback by Ye Nanqing's actions.

Isn't it rumored that Ye Nanqing is extremely cold and aloof?

Why does he seem so gentle with Tian Tian?

Is the rumor wrong? Or does he just like children?

Ji Tiantian's big, bright eyes darted around as she tilted her head to look at Ji Fuling, and she said in a coquettish tone, "Mommy, the handsome uncle is such a nice person. I like the handsome uncle. Can you marry him and make him my daddy?"

Ji Fuling: "..."

This girl is getting more and more outrageous. It's one thing to play matchmaker at such a young age, but to do it to her own mother?

Just because Ye Nanqing is handsome?

Unable to bear it any longer, she walked over, picked up the little girl, and turned to leave.

The little girl squirmed restlessly, trying to break free.

Ji Fuling issued a timely warning, "Sweetie, if you don't behave, you can forget about watching Peppa Pig anymore."

This warning was a deadly threat to Ji Tiantian, who was only four years old and loved Peppa Pig.

Her face fell instantly, then she resignedly turned around and waved to Ye Nanqing, "Handsome uncle, I'll be going now, see you next time!!"

Watching the two figures leave, Ye Nanqing's interest deepened.

interesting.

This woman successfully piqued his interest...

Thirty minutes later.

The taxi stopped in front of a detached villa.

Ji Fuling led Ji Tiantian out of the car and into the house.

Ji Ziming slid off the sofa and ran forward to greet them, "Mommy, Tiantian, you're back."

Ji Zihan, still behaving like an older brother, cautiously asked, "Mommy, that man didn't bully you and your sister, did he?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Fuling couldn't help but think of that kiss from earlier...

However, that was just an accident, and it can't be said that the other party bullied her.

She shook her head. "No, don't worry, Mommy will take good care of herself and won't suffer any losses."

After saying that, Ji Fuling's bright little face turned serious. "Ji Tiantian, you were too naughty today. You're not good at all. You're not allowed to watch Peppa Pig this month, and you're not allowed to eat lollipops either."

"Zihan, Zimo, you two help Mommy keep an eye on her."

The two little cuties looked at their younger sister with pity.

The little girl pouted, instantly looking as wilted as a frostbitten eggplant.

At this moment, a middle-aged woman in her forties came out of the kitchen, saw the little girl looking aggrieved, and went over to pick her up.

"What's wrong with our Tian Tian? Look at her pouting lips, you could hang an oil bottle on them! Tell Grandma Ding, why is Tian Tian unhappy?"

Ji Fuling waved her hand, "It's nothing, Aunt Ding. It's just that this girl was disobedient, so I disciplined her."

Aunt Ding is a maid in the Huo family.

When she arrived at the Huo family, she discovered that she was pregnant.

She originally wanted to abort the child, but after a hospital check-up, the doctor said she was pregnant with triplets and that if she aborted, she might lose her ability to have children for the rest of her life.

After much struggle, she finally decided to give birth to the child.

Upon learning this, Mr. Huo arranged for Aunt Ding to be assigned to take care of her.

This care has lasted for five years, and continues to this day.

Suddenly, Ji Fuling remembered something. "Oh right, the enrollment procedures for the three little ones have been completed. I have something to do tomorrow, so I'll have to trouble Aunt Ding to take them to school."

Aunt Ding nodded. "Yes, Miss Third."
