I'm In Love With the Guy I Grew Up With-Chapter 1017: It’s Easy to Take Care of Me

"Eh?" Ning Xixi was utterly confused and even touched Ji Yebai’s forehead. "Dabai, are you having a fever? Why are you apologizing to me?"

Ji Yebai caught her small hand, gently wrapping and twisting it in his palm, full of tender affection.

"Erxi, Anna’s family once saved Grandpa’s life, so it’s a debt our Ji Family owes them. Therefore, I can’t go too far with her, can’t take it out on her for you, I’m sorry..." His eyes, like the vast Xingchen, shimmered with light, and there was a vortex like a black hole at the bottom, making people fall into it within seconds.

Ning Xixi couldn’t help but burst into laughter, her eyes curved into crescents, "I wasn’t blaming you, and besides, didn’t you already help me teach that servant a lesson? Hmm, I’m fine, you don’t need to feel bad."

Speaking of which, she changed the topic, "Why are you back so soon? Weren’t you going to sign a contract?"

At this mention, Ji Yebai lightly furrowed his brows, "The other party backed out and stood me up. I tried to call you but couldn’t get through, so I hurried back."

"I see..." Working hard for so many days, now it’s all for nothing; Dabai must be feeling pretty bad.

Ning Xixi wrapped her arms around his waist, rubbed against his warm chest, and gently patted his back with her small paws.

"It’s alright, don’t be too down, you still have me."

Her voice was soft and sweet, like a stream quietly flowing through the mountains.

Ji Yebai murmured, "Dummy."

His girl, so wonderful that he felt unworthy.

"Did your phone break? I’ll have Jacks send you a new one." Ji Yebai rubbed her soft hair, maintaining the posture of hugging her with one hand, and used the other hand to call Jacks, instructing him to send a new phone over.

Ning Xixi lay on his chest, clinging to him like a koala, lazily playing with his tie, her gaze drifting and thoughtful.

Unbeknownst to her, that lazy manner was so enticing.

Beauty unrecognized is the truest beauty.

"Erxi..." His throat tightened, voice hoarse, "What are you thinking?"

"Hmm... I’m thinking about how to support you." Ning Xixi propped her chin, speaking in a distressed tone.

Ji Yebai groaned, "Does this young master need you to support me?"

"Ah, I know you’re very capable. But hypothetically, I mean hypothetically, if one day you’re tired and don’t want to earn money, one of us would have to support the family!" Ning Xixi looked earnest, "I can’t just kick you out to find someone else, right? Of course, I’d have to work hard to earn money to support you."

Ji Yebai let her imagine wildly, adjusting their position to make Ning Xixi more comfortable.

"Have you thought of a way?"

"Not yet..." Ning Xixi looked quite vexed, "Supporting you would probably require a lot of money... I don’t have it."

Ji Yebai chuckled softly, "Actually, supporting me is very simple, it only takes one thing."

"Ah? What is it?"

"Come closer, I’ll tell you."

Having been tricked many times, Ning Xixi finally became cautious, warily saying, "You’re definitely trying to take advantage of me again!"

Ji Yebai solemnly replied, "Not this time."

Ning Xixi hesitantly leaned closer, curious.

The next second, Ji Yebai flipped over, and Ning Xixi felt the world spin, finding herself pinned beneath Ji Yebai!
