Chapter 1276: I know that these kids are mine.
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After a busy day at work, Pei Ge returned home to her two little guys inquiring about Ji Chi.
She started grumbling about Ji Ziming in her exasperation.
That guy, he either harasses me daily or disappears without a trace like now!
“You two, just wait a few more days. Your uncle and his son will surely come visit.”
With no other choice, she could only tell her children that.
“How long is ‘a few more days’, mommy? You said that yesterday, too.”
She began to ponder if... she should give the man a call while looking at her daughter’s clear eyes.
“Mommy?”
Her children widened their eyes innocently at her.
“Shall mommy call your uncle?”
Returning to herself, she asked the two little guys with a smile.
The two got excited upon hearing that, their eyes turning into crescent moons.
“Yay! I haven’t seen my little brother in a long time.”
Seeing how excited both were, the conflicted her came to a decision.
She took out her phone to dial the man’s number, but the ringing of the doorbell interrupted her.
Her eyes immediately lit up.
She thought that the man and his son might be visiting them finally!
“Mommy, is that uncle knocking?”
“I’ll go open the door!”
The two kids shared her thoughts and ran toward the door before she could say anything.
Even the calm and mature An An felt excited.
She watched them run to the door and followed behind them big steps.
Alas, to the trio’s disappointment, the person outside the door was not the one they were expecting.
When An An and Ran Ran opened the door, the expectant eyes of the two dimmed instantly.
Disappointment was written all over their adorable faces.
“...S-Senior?!” she exclaimed in surprise, opening her eyes wide at the sight of the man standing outside the door.
“Ge Ge, it’s been a while.”
The person standing there was none other than Fu Mingxuan.
After five years, the guy looked the same as he did before—gentle and dashing—but there were still traces of change on him if one looked carefully.
For example... his gentle eyes were now tinged with sadness, though it was not so noticeable because of his prescription glasses.
“How did you... know that I live here?”
The man in his silver-gray suit seemed slimmer compared to before, but despite the loss of weight, he appeared to be in high spirits.
She had always felt a sense of guilt to this man.
Having seen those newspapers from five years ago, she reckoned that the man was a victim as well.
If it had not been for Qiao Jingyun’s schemes, this guy and Ji Ziming would not have turned into enemies from childhood friends.
There were even reports claiming that his departure was because the other man had chased him out.
“Aren’t you going to invite me in?”
He curled his lips into a gentle smile as he looked at these three before him.
“Please come in!”
She only came back to her senses when she heard his question and invited him inside hurriedly.
Pouring the man a glass of water, she pursed her lips out of awkwardness from being unable to find a topic to talk to him.
In the end, the man spoke first.
“How have you been these five years...”
Even though the question was directed to her, his gaze was on the children.
It made the kids uncomfortable.
“Pretty good. I met some nice people abroad.”
When she spoke of those people, a happy smile appeared on her face.
In retrospect, the last five years were tough... but worth it.
“Really...” His focus was clearly not there. Everything he had said seemed to be perfunctory.
“How old are your children now? When were they born?”
Taking a deep breath, his expression became increasingly serious.
“Huh?”
She paused when she heard that question and saw the seriousness on his face.
“They’re five; wh-why are you asking?”
She looked at him confusedly.
For some reason, she felt that his arrival here was untimely.
“It’s been hard on you these few years. It must’ve been tough to raise these guys.”
The man did not answer her question; instead, he stood up and walked over to the children and squatted before them.
“Ah? It wasn’t. I felt happiness and contentment because of them.”
If it were not for her children, she really did not know how her life would have been in those five years.
“Don’t worry; from now on, I’ll take good care of you guys.”
He looked at the kids with bright eyes full of anticipation.
She finally dawned on her that something was off here when she noted his agitation and heard his words!
What ‘take care of us’?
What in the world?!
“Senior, what are you talking about? I’m not sure I follow you.”
She really could not understand what he was saying. Why did he have to take care of them? Seriously!
“You don’t have to hide it from me. I know that these two are mine. Thank you! Really thank you! I thought... that the child died five years ago...”
