Chapter 329: Chapter 329: The Door Is There, Get Out!
Ning Xixi was dumbfounded, standing there without even remembering to blink.
Ji Yebai pulled out a tissue, wiped away the tear streaks on Ning Xixi’s face, held the tissue to her nose, and said softly, "Blow hard."
Ning Xixi did as told subconsciously.
It wasn’t until Ji Yebai tossed the tissue into the trash bin that Ning Xixi realized... was Ji Yebai just helping her blow her nose?
"I’m not a pig..." she whined with a sense of injustice.
Ji Yebai mussed up her hair and said indulgently, "Mhm, you’re not a little pig, you’re a Little Fairy."
One sentence had Ning Xixi’s spirits blossoming with delight; she couldn’t help but curve her lips into a smile.
"Come back to the Ji Family with me," Ji Yebai said, gazing at her.
"I... I don’t want to..."
"Ning Xixi, are you doing this on purpose to make me angry?" Ji Yebai frowned, and Ning Xixi pouted, "You’re scolding me again!"
Ji Yebai: "..."
He took a deep breath, "I’m not scolding you, but you have to come back with me!"
"What if I don’t go back?"
One retort from the little girl, and indeed, Ji Yebai was stumped.
Sure, he could tie her up and take her back, but what if he ended up making her cry again?
However, Ji Yebai is still Ji Yebai after all; moments later, he thought of a plan.
"If you don’t go back, then I’ll have to stay," he whispered into Ning Xixi’s ear with a suggestive breath, "Erxi, at the Ji Family, people keep tabs on me; not so much here. What if I accidentally do something... unintended?"
Ning Xixi tensed up immediately.
Ji Yebai teased her on purpose, "What do you think we should name our child?"
"You, you, you..."
Ning Xixi looked frightened, her eyes brimming with tears, "Ji Yebai, I don’t want to have children right now."
She herself was still a child.
Ji Yebai stopped at the right moment, "If you don’t want to have them, come home with me!"
"...But going home, won’t I still have to have your children in a few years?" Suddenly Ning Xixi’s intelligence kicked in.
Ji Yebai wore a ’good pupil’ gratified expression, "It seems that in your heart, having my children has already become a matter of course."
The now ruffled Ning Xixi who realized she had been tricked flared up, "There’s the door, get out!"
So, that night, the dignified Young Master Ji ended up with the woeful fate of making do with the couch for the night.
-
Early next morning, the gentle dawn light was faint, and the warm sun glowed.
Ji Yebai opened his eyes, the grogginess of sleep still in his slender, black eyes. He sat up from the couch, and through the light streaming in from the balcony, he saw Ning Xixi bustling at the dining table.
Her black hair cascaded over her shoulders; her figure was slender and petite, her side profile youthful and bright. With every blink of her eyelashes, a soft shadow would flutter, almost unreal in its beauty.
As if driven by instinct, Ji Yebai stepped forward and embraced Ning Xixi from behind.
"Go wash up after you wake, then it’s time for breakfast!"
"Erxi," Ji Yebai called softly, hugging Ning Xixi tighter, "Let me hold you for a while."
Ning Xixi blushed and struggled, but the more she strove, the tighter Ji Yebai held her, his arms like an iron barrier, leaving her efforts futile.
"Let go of me!"
"I won’t," Ji Yebai’s voice was muffled.
Ning Xixi’s face was as red as a ripe apple, "Do you even realize where your hands are?"
Ji Yebai belatedly realized that, due to their height difference, his large hand fell exactly on the softness in front of her chest and with the tightening of his embrace, fitted even more seamlessly...
