Soon, on the way back to the old mansion, the phone vibrated.

Su Ji took out her phone and glanced at it. It was not hers either.

Following that, the caller ID popped up on the LCD screen of the car-“Mother-in-law”.

The LCD screen was connected to Pei Huai’s phone.

Xu Mingzhi made up her mind to make a phone call, but she was not calling her precious daughter, but her son-in-law!

Su Ji wondered why her mother would call Pei Huai out of the blue.

Before she could figure it out, Pei Huai raised his hand and answered the call.

The system automatically put it on speaker. Pei Huai paid attention to the road and turned up the volume at the same time.

“Mom.” The man’s voice was low and flat.

Su Ji wanted to ask her mother if she was feeling unwell.

“Pei Huai, did my baby make you a prescription yesterday?”

Xu Mingzhi spoke first, and Su Ji paused.

How did she know?

“Yes,” Pei Huai replied.

Xu Mingzhi said, “then did you drink it?”

Pei Huai said, “yes. Three servings a day.”

Su Ji had yet to find a time to interrupt, and the conversation between them progressed very quickly.

“What? You drank three servings yesterday?” Xu Mingzhi’s phone almost fell to the ground. She wanted to pick up her knife!

“How did you feel after you drank it?” Xu Mingzhi tried her best to be tactful. She thought that her son-in-law would definitely understand.

Pei Huai only wanted to answer his mother-in-law’s question seriously.

After drinking the first two doses of medicine, he did not feel anything. When the medicine started to take effect…it was after he had taken the serving at night.

He clearly felt that the burning and stinging sensation during the day had decreased, and he was more focused when he was busy with work.

He replied truthfully, “I feel very comfortable at night.”

Xu Mingzhi

He said that he…felt very comfortable at night…

Xu Mingzhi’s poker face froze!

The corners of Su Ji’s mouth twitched violently.

Just as she was about to explain, Xu Mingzhi’s voice suddenly increased over the Bluetooth. “Send me your location! I have something important to discuss with you!”

Pei Huai:

Xu Mingzhi didn’t give him time to reply and hung up.

The car drove steadily for a while. Su Ji smiled awkwardly and broke the silence. “Mom seems to have misunderstood something. Go back to the office first. I’ll explain it to her.”

However, Pei Huai did not understand. He suddenly turned his head and looked at her. “Has Madam Xu been avoiding you recently?”

Su Ji looked at his expression and slowly raised an eyebrow.

Following that, Pei Huai chose a cafe in a shopping mall. Before Madam Xu could react, the location of the cafe was sent to her.

The wind chimes at the entrance of the cafe rang out. When Pei Huai walked into the cafe, he was stunned for a second.

When he had sent his mother-in-law his location, he had randomly selected a cafe on the first floor of a shopping mall.

[Culomi-themed Coffee]

Although the name didn’t sound business-like, compared to “Maid Café” and “You’re My Pink Memories”…much better.

At least Pei Huai thought so, but when he walked in…

A big rat with a white face and black ears was facing him head-on. It had a huge face and was fighting him head-on. Its black ears were irregularly rhombus-shaped, and there were two cross-shaped stars in its eyes.

Pei Huai narrowed his eyes.

He had mysophobia and was allergic to rats.

He also had obsessive-compulsive disorder and was allergic to irregularity.

Opposite him, the staff member who was wearing the legendary and extremely popular little witch Kuromi’s doll costume: “…”

“Welcome,” the staff member said as he tried to calm himself down.” May I ask how many of you…”

Pei Huai ignored him and all the questions he asked. He walked straight inside and the other waiters who were dressed normally came up to him.

The coffee shop in the mall did not have any no private rooms.

Although it was Monday, there were still many customers in the shop, and most of them were cute little girls.

A little girl looked at Pei Huai, who had suddenly come in from the outside and was out of place, and could not help but feel a little excited.

They whispered to each other while biting their straws.

Then, when someone recognized him, the excited discussions became even more obvious.

However, before they could reach the high point, they were told to leave.

Pei Huai booked the entire cafe so that he would have ample s.p.a.ce to move around later.

This was his usual way of doing things. If for some reason, he was invited to a meeting where there was no private room, he would choose to book the entire place.
