"I don't—"
She was forced to swallow the rest of her words by the man's gaze.
Seeing the hidden threat in his icy gaze, for some reason, she was unable to continue speaking.
He peered at her lightly and then said, "Pei Ge also agrees."
"Really?" Mother Ji smiled brightly as she turned to look at her.
When she did not show any signs of rejection, his mother's smile grew even wider.
"That's great, then. Since you guys agree to my idea, let's have you two try it out." Mother Ji was so happy she cupped her mouth with her hands.
"Mhm." He lightly peered at the slightly dazed Pei Ge and hummed in reply.
"Mom, we have something on, so we'll be taking our leave now."
By the time Pei Ge returned to her senses, the man had already bid his mother goodbye for the both of them.
"Huh? This early?" Mother Ji was a little taken aback.
"Yes. We have something on this afternoon." He nodded.
