Pampered by My Ex's Cousin

Chapter 581 - 573 His Warmth (Part 6)

Watching the aunt hurriedly run past her, Ji Anning suddenly made a decision, turned her head toward Fenfen, and said, "Fenfen, it’s raining, shall we take an umbrella to daddy?"

Fenfen nodded, "Okay."

Even though it was just a two-year-old child, that single okay was a huge encouragement to her; she reached out and comfortingly patted Fenfen’s little head, "You wait here for mommy for a moment."

With that, she stood up and entered the kitchen.

"Miss Anning, what are you doing?"

Ji Anning had just finished slicing the ginger and was pouring it into boiling cola when the aunt came in, and she casually replied, "I’m making some ginger cola syrup."

"For Mr. Ji?" The aunt leaned closer to Ji Anning, glanced at the pot, and a knowing smile appeared on her kindly face.

"Ah ... um." Ji Anning felt a bit embarrassed, shyly nodding her head, "Yes."

The aunt said, "Then I won’t help you."

Ji Anning was still somewhat embarrassed, nodded, and said, "No need to help, it’s very simple, you go ahead with your tasks."

She held the pot lid in one hand and the spatula in the other, stirring the freshly poured ginger into the cola.

The first time she made ginger cola syrup was when she was eleven years old, created for her by Yang Yufang.

During that period, she had a particularly severe cold; despite taking her medicine daily, Yang Yufang would always make her a large cup of ginger cola drink.

While she was making it, she just stood by her side.

’The longer it simmers, the better it works.’

’It’s hot, drink it slowly.’

’After you take your medicine, drinking a bowl of ginger cola makes the bitterness of the medicine go away, doesn’t it?’

"Miss Anning, isn’t it about ready?"

Ji Anning was deep in her reminiscences when the aunt suddenly came in again, reminding her.

She snapped back to the present and checked the pot; the cola had already reduced quite a bit, so she hurriedly turned off the heat, then reached out to handle the pot.

’Hiss’

It had been on the heat for too long; the handles on either side of the pot were very hot, so hot that she jumped.

"Slow down, slow down, it’s hot." The aunt simply pulled Ji Anning away and helped her pour the ginger cola into an insulated container.

Why did she think of her today?

Ji Anning stood idly by, annoyed and self-reproachful.

Taking the address of Ji Chicheng’s company from Ji Mingyue, Ji Anning drove out the car with the child safety seat from the garage and placed Fenfen in the safety seat.

Ji Chicheng’s company was located in the IT hub of N City, where several world-renowned IT companies’ headquarters clustered.

The office building where Ji Chicheng’s company was located faced the busiest shopping street in N City. The outdoor parking spaces were quite empty in the evening; Ji Anning easily found a spot to park the car, then got out carrying Fenfen.

"Does Fenfen know where daddy’s company is?"

Fenfen nodded, "Mhm."

"Then you lead the way for mommy." Ji Anning set the little girl down, and she quickly ran toward the office building.

Ji Anning followed her, finding it a bit of a struggle to keep up.

Since there were no security guards on duty in the evening, they entered the elevator without any hurdles, Ji Anning holding Fenfen, letting Fenfen press the floor number.

Sixteenth floor, as soon as the elevator doors opened, they saw the words ’Beautiful City’ in English.

It was as if they had entered a magical world, filled with the scent of a fairy-tale castle everywhere.

Ji Anning marveled, her steps delving deeper inside, the walls adorned with display windows, each one resembling a palace, showcasing Beautiful City’s signature jewelry.

Each piece of jewelry was so nobly refined.
