Provocative Fiery Wife: My Superior is a Affectionate Spitfire

p>Since her mother had already said so, she decided not to say anything more to her cousin.

“Mom, what happened here? Why did you faint at home with a fever?” she quickly asked worriedly.

Zhang Manhua gave her an exasperated smile.

“I forgot to close the windows before I slept last night, so after experiencing the cold wind for a while night, I woke up with a headache.
I thought that it’s just a cold, and I just needed to drink some hot water to cure it, so I didn’t pay much attention to it.

“Who would’ve known that I actually got a fever? By the time I realized this, it was already too late, and I could only make an emergency call.”

She felt angry and exasperated at her mother’s explanation.

“What can I say about you? You should’ve taken better care of yourself.
It’s not like hot water is a miracle medicine—”

“Pei Ge, what right do you have to reprimand big aunt? If not for you being away from home, big aunt wouldn’t have met with something like this.”

Her cousin coldly snorted from the side.
Once she did not bother pretending to be gentle, Pei Shishi felt a little more sincere.

“This has nothing to do with you.” In that moment, she did not know how to rebuke her cousin.

“How is this none of my business? This is my big aunt, or else the hospital wouldn’t have contacted me when they couldn’t get in touch with you.”

“…” Made speechless by her, she inexplicably felt stifled inside.

She had not expected that today would be this coincidental.

It was likely that her phone was in the car when the hospital first called her; hence, she missed it.

“Alright, alright.
Ge Ge, Shishi, stop quarreling.
I am fine now.” Zhang Manhua helplessly mediated between the two.

The two shut up at this.

She helplessly shook her head at the two.

“Ge Ge, Shishi helped out this time out of goodwill, so don’t quarrel with her.”

“Hur!” Pei Ge smirked.
Ever since her mother was misdiagnosed and she tried to borrow money from her relatives, she had stopped believing in their morals.

Although she did not know why her cousin was here and was even pretending to care for her mother, she still refused to believe that she was helping sincerely.

“Pei Ge, I know that you’re still holding a grudge against us for not lending you the money last time, but it’s not that I didn’t want to lend you money, it’s—”

Mid-speech, her face froze and she shut up as she saw something.

“Xiao Ji? Eh?! Xiao Ji, why are you here?”

Zhang Manhua stared at the man, who had entered the ward, in surprise.

It turned out that her cousin was stunned because she was Ji Ziming.

“Mom, h-he…” Pei Ge felt nervous upon seeing the confusion on her mother’s face.

She did not know how to introduce this official boyfriend to her mother.

What she did not expect, though, was…

“Hello, auntie.
I’m your daughter’s present boyfriend.”
