Pampered by My Ex's Cousin-Chapter 266 - 260 Sharing a Bed Together (Part 4)

"No need for change."

Suddenly, a large hand holding a hundred-yuan note reached out in front of her and handed it to the vendor.

What? No need for change?

Ji Anning’s eyes widened as she watched Ji Chicheng’s hundred-yuan note being taken by the vendor, "We need change."

It was a firm tone that brooked no argument.

Damn! She only bought five skewers, which at most would cost twenty yuan, and here he was, not asking for change from a hundred.

Her hand stretched out to the vendor, but before the vendor could even get the change, the long arm of the man beside her wrapped around her and easily picked her up as he started to leave.

This move scared Ji Anning out of her wits.

She looked around at the passersby, some of whom had stopped to watch them, and she worriedly reminded Ji Chicheng, "Uncle, don’t do this, a lot of people are watching us, my mom will find out."

She had been back for a few days, and it was inevitable that someone would recognize her. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

Ji Chicheng didn’t keep her worrying for too long and put her down immediately, then he looked down at her with a cold gaze, "I said no need for change."

Ji Anning frowned, "Why not get change? That’s money, isn’t it?"

She knew he was wealthy, but that didn’t mean he could just splurge.

"I am a man," Mr. Ji declared, lifting his chin with a proud air.

He had already spoken, and her insistence on getting the change back was embarrassing for him.

Ji Anning rolled her eyes at him, "Blind pursuit of face."

Then she took a skewer of fish balls out of the bag, bit into it, and chewed with relish.

"I’m leaving." Ji Chicheng didn’t argue further with Ji Anning, gave her a nod, and lifted his foot to leave, casting a glance at the skewers Ji Anning was enjoying, he commanded indisputably, "Don’t eat these things again next time."

"Why?" Ji Anning asked, chewing the food in her mouth and blinking her eyes in confusion at Ji Chicheng.

Ji Chicheng said, "I just saw the vendor’s snot fall into it."

Without waiting for Ji Anning’s reaction, he turned and left, and in the moment he turned, a sly smile flashed across his deep, dark eyes, mischievously.

The vendor’s snot had fallen into it... Ji Anning was petrified, staring at the skewer in her hand, the one she had just bitten in half, and her stomach began to churn.

’Gag’

She turned around, tossed away what was in her hand, and stuck her fingers into her mouth, trying to induce vomiting to get the half-eaten fish ball out.

After tries that felt like an eternity, and nothing came out, she reluctantly gave up, and as she stood up, she realized the man’s figure was no longer there. She looked into the distance, his tall figure moving farther away.

In her eyes, there was a deep sense of reluctance, and she pouted, muttering discontentedly, "Couldn’t he even say goodbye?"

Ji Anning watched Ji Chicheng leave, reminiscing about their more than ten hours of romantic time together, so blissful and sweet, like a gorgeous dream.

Those kisses that she couldn’t help but respond to, those tender glances that had her throwing caution to the wind, was it all a dream?

It wasn’t a dream because he said, they were truly together now.

A gust of cold wind blew by, interrupting Ji Anning’s thoughts, and she shivered, pulling her gaze back and stuffing her hands into her coat pockets.

What’s this?

There was a card in her pocket. She pulled it out and looked down—wasn’t this the bank card into which she’d saved all her earnings from the last three years that she gave him?

Surprised, Ji Anning looked up again towards the direction where Ji Chicheng disappeared.
