Pampered by My Ex's Cousin

Chapter 559 - 551: Thawing Relations (Part 10)

She bumped into her aunt, who frowned in confusion at her behavior, "Miss Anning, what’s wrong?"

Ji Anning didn’t dare to make a sound and desperately gestured to her aunt with her eyes.

But it was already too late.

A familiar female voice came from the dining room, "Ji Anning?"

There was surprise and suspicion in the tone!

"..." Ji Anning frowned and had no choice but to stop, casting an accusatory look at her aunt before reluctantly turning around to face the woman in the dining room who was looking at her with a face full of surprise. She forced a slight smile, "Little aunt."

Very nervous, very awkward.

It turned out that the woman sitting on the sofa just now wasn’t that Korean; it was Ji Ming Yue.

Thinking about it, she felt even more embarrassed. She had been sulking in her room for half a day, complaining for half a day, looking down on everything for half a day, and it all turned out to be a joke.

She finally understood why, when she was preparing to go downstairs this morning, Ji Chicheng had said that phrase to her.

’Think it through before you go down.’

Since he had already warned her, he might as well have just told her that Ji Ming Yue had come, and that would have been it.

He obviously did it on purpose, deliberately not telling her so that she would be caught off guard and end up in such awkward helplessness.

Anyway, he was never afraid of others knowing about their relationship back then.

"What are you doing here?" Ji Anning walked up to Ji Anning, eyeing Fenfen in her arms suspiciously, then nodded in realization, "So all those gossips were true?"

Without giving Ji Anning a chance to speak, she continued with sorrowful indignation, pointing at Ji Anning and then turning to point at Ji Chicheng, "You two... You’re really causing quite a stir, do you even know what your relationship is?"

Ji Anning quickly shook her head in denial, "We have nothing, little aunt, you’re misunderstanding."

Cough, she’s now capable of lying with her eyes wide open.

Almost caught red-handed, and she was still making excuses.

Ji Anning said this and lowered her head, not daring to meet Ji Ming Yue’s gaze.

"Yeah, big sister, you’re thinking too much. She and I... are just former uncle and niece."

Suddenly, Ji Chicheng spoke up, his slow tone laced with a hint of mocking laughter.

Ji Anning looked over, his lips also carrying a trace of sneer. She pouted, feeling a bit uncomfortable inside. An emotion uncontrollably surged within her.

Former uncle and niece... what a novel relationship, he really had a way with words.

"Daddy."

These two adults were busy denying their relationship, but they had forgotten there was a little one who, shortly after Ji Chicheng’s words fell, suddenly looked at him and called out crisply, ’Daddy.’

"Daddy?" Ji Ming Yue’s eyes shifted back to Ji Chicheng, raising an eyebrow at him.

The meaning was for him to explain.

Ji Chicheng ignored her, holding a fork in one hand and a glass of milk in the other, eating and drinking with his usual elegance.

"Mommy..."

Fenfen suddenly looked at Ji Anning again; her chubby little hand pointing towards Ji Chicheng, the message simple: she wanted to go to daddy to eat something tasty.

"Mommy." Ji Ming Yue glanced at Ji Anning, then at Ji Chicheng, "Daddy."

She scoffed, "Heh, you have no relation, just a simply former uncle and niece. So, this child is just a common prize you both won when adding phone credit? And she also happens to look so much like Ji Chicheng."

Ji Anning frowned wordlessly at Ji Ming Yue; two years had not seen her, and she was still as venomously tongued as ever... annoying.
