Chapter 1185: She must be the woman I have always been looking for.

Even after she was done changing, she still had not come to heads if he had recognized her, yet he was already knocking at the door before pushing it open.
“…Mr. Ji, I don’t remember inviting you in?”
She frowned in displeasure when the man walked in.
The man merely expressionlessly replied, “This is my home.”
This simple statement caused her to choke on her words.
“Even if this is your home, you still can’t be this disrespectful. What if I haven’t finished changing?”
She nudged her lips and pointed out, feeling slightly pissed.
After returning to the country, her queenly persona had totally crumbled the moment she met him.
Even now, she yet to realize that her attitude toward him had an inexplicable… sense of familiarity.
The way the two of them interacted was unlike people who had just met each other.
She did not realize this, and similarly, he did not, too.
“Why are you here?” He regarded her familiar yet foreign features in confusion.
This place was clearly his son’s room.
“Er…” She blinked, momentarily speechless by what she had just heard. “Weren’t it you guys who called me over?”
“…”
She let out a helpless breath seeing his cold expression and then pointed at the deeply asleep child. “Because of him…”
He understood what she meant at once.
Looks like, while I was away, my parents could do nothing about this rascal, so they called her over.
“…Thank you.”
Finally understanding the situation, he fell silent for a moment before thanking her sincerely.
Her mood improved because of this and her lips curled up. She then casually replied, “It’s nothing.”
After she finished speaking, both fell silent, and the atmosphere instantly turned stiff.
“…”
She pressed her lips together when she noted the man staring at her without moving or speaking. She softly said, “That… It’s already quite late, so I’m going to sleep.”
“Oh. Go to sleep, then.”
He nodded and turned around, preparing to leave the bedroom.
Seeing that he was about to leave, she secretly heaved a sigh of relief. However, before she could finish doing that, she heard his low voice ask a question.
“Oh, right. How’s your mother’s health now?”
“Ah, my mom? She is still lying in—”
She replied on reflex, but halfway through, she realized that the question was a trap!
“…”
She halted midway and looked at him warily.
Why is he asking me that?!
“Hm? So your mother still hasn’t woken up and is still lying in hospital?”
The man’s eyes lit up instantly when he heard the first half of her reply.
This woman must be the one I’ve always been looking for… Pei Ge!
“Of course not.” She shook her head with a light smile.
“Why do you always like to interrupt when someone is speaking?”
She chuckled naturally.
“I haven’t even finished speaking yet. My mom is still lying in our villa abroad, helping me take care of my children. I wonder where Mr. Ji heard that my mother is sick? That’s preposterous!”
“…” Her flawless reply caused him to raise an eyebrow as his lips curled up slightly.
“Oh, is that so? Then, please rest well.”
With that, he slowly walked out of the bedroom.
Pak!
The moment the door closed, Pei Ge felt her heart relax.
“Hoo!”
She walked to the bedroom door, took a deep breath, and rested her back against it.
I… didn’t reveal anything, did I?
He… shouldn’t have realized anything, right?
Still, why did he suddenly ask that to me? Why was he testing me?
She leaned against the door and recalled the things that had just happened, her mind starting to drift.
At the same time, on the other side of the door, another man stood with a cold face while in deep thought.
This woman… must be Pei Ge.
Although her answer was flawless and she did not look as if she were lying, there… was something about her that felt off!
It was a dreamless night.
When the first ray of sunlight shone into the room, Pei Ge stretched her lazy back and opened her eyes under her body clock’s urging.
She drowsily eyed the unfamiliar surroundings for a while, and when she spotted the little fella in her arms, she finally recalled where she was.
“Mommy!”
She probably woke up the child in her embrace accidentally, for he opened his eyes as well.
“My boy, it’s still early; go back to sleep.”
She caressed his tender face and planted a morning kiss on the top of his head.
“Haaa… Okay!”
The child yawned, then turned around, and returned to sleep.
Seeing that he had fallen asleep again, she shook her head in amusement and then put on her clothes with light movements.
Once she was done changing, she packed up her things and carefully left the child’s bedroom.
“Miss Regina, good morning!”
While she was in the corridor, she did not meet anyone from the Ji family. Instead, she met many housekeepers who greeted her enthusiastically.
“Morning! Oh, right. Please let your madam and master know that I am leaving first once they wake up later.”
“Ah, ma’am, our young master is waiting for you in the dining room. We were told to let you know to go there.”
That man! What is he planning again by looking for me? Why is he so tenacious?
