"Hello, auntie. I'm your daughter's present boyfriend."
Not only her mother and her cousin, Pei Ge herself, the person involved, was shocked to hear this, too.
"W-What did you say?!" Zhang Manhua's eyes widened in disbelief.
Before, she thought that her daughter and this man's relationship was quite good.
Her daughter vehemently denied having feelings for this man, though, so she did not think in that direction at all.
Therefore, hearing now that her best choice for a 'son-in-law' was her daughter's boyfriend, how could she not be shocked?
"Y-Yes, how can you two truly be together…"
Pei Shishi, whose expression could not be described, muttered that involuntarily.
Immediately when she heard her cousin's remark, Pei Ge felt displeased.
Hence, despite her inherent shyness, as though staking her claim, she hooked her arm through Ji Ziming's and said brightly, "Mom, cousin, he's indeed my boyfriend. We are presently dating."
