Pampered by My Ex's Cousin-Chapter 354 - 348: Going to Sleep Over a Disagreement (Part 2)

All of a sudden, Ji Anning was startled and quickly lifted her head from the delicious food, looking towards the entrance. She opened her mouth in surprise, "Young Master Qi."

Qi Helian’s tall silhouette approached them. He was dressed in black sportswear, wearing a wristband on his wrist, his forehead glistening with fine sweat, as if he had just finished exercising.

As he drew near, Ji Anning turned her head again, giving Ji Chicheng a questioning look.

Ji Chicheng’s face was cold, clearly not welcoming the newcomer.

So he didn’t know that Qi Helian would come either?

During this contemplation, Qi Helian had already reached the dining table. He impolitely pulled out a chair, sitting down while looking at the food on the table and shaking his head with a tsk, "This uncle and nephew pair really have an atmosphere, traveling so far just to have breakfast here."

As he spoke, he turned to look at Ji Chicheng, not intimidated at all by his icy cold expression, and boldly teased him, "Ji Chicheng, you’ve changed, you’ve fallen in love."

Ji Chicheng’s expression remained unchanged, the picture of calm, but Ji Anning felt quite embarrassed and lowered her head in shame.

She was still very sensitive about her relationship with Ji Chicheng.

"Don’t be shy, join us," said Qi Helian as he reached for a spring roll and took a bite. While chewing, he complained to Ji Chicheng, "Every time I invite you, you don’t come. I never thought you’d sneak over here with your nephew’s wife."

He deliberately emphasized the words ’nephew’s wife’.

After speaking, he glanced at Ji Anning out of the corner of his eye. Seeing her blushing, lovely face, his smirk suddenly paused.

"I’m not hanging out with you guys anymore, there’s a beauty next door."

Qi Helian put down the spring roll after one bite, greeted Ji Chicheng and the others, and then stood up and left.

His arrival was sudden, and his departure was incomprehensibly abrupt.

Ji Anning watched Qi Helian leave, then blinked at Ji Chicheng to express her confusion.

However, Ji Chicheng didn’t care about Qi Helian at all and calmly continued eating his porridge with a spoon.

...

"Our store is having an anniversary event and we’re giving away limited edition keychains." 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

While settling the bill, the waiter brought over a delicate little box containing two keychains, each with English letters engraved on the ring, featuring a ceramic little white rabbit ornament, very cute.

Ji Anning spotted them immediately and picked one up, unable to put it down.

The two keychains were identical except for a bow on the head of one of the little white rabbits, while the other had none.

"These are really fun."

Ji Anning couldn’t wait to swap her keychain; she only had two keys, one for her dormitory and another for the drawer in her room.

She walked along, lifting the keychain to admire it, absolutely delighted.

Ji Chicheng walked ahead, and the two descended the wooden staircase one after the other.

At that moment, a commotion suddenly erupted in the lobby.

"Miss Yueyue, we heard you’re dating Young Master Qi. Can you say a few words about it?"

"Is it true that Young Master Qi is planning to invite you to play the female lead in ’Return of the Cute Wife’?"

"Miss Yueyue, could you reveal a little something to us?"

Ji Anning stopped in her tracks and looked towards the restaurant entrance, where a group of journalists surrounded a woman in an off-white trench coat—it was Wan Yueyue.

She had been Wan Yueyue’s stand-in; seeing her now made Ji Anning a bit nervous. She skulked down a step and hid behind Ji Chicheng, quietly peeking out her head to watch the gossip unravel at the door.

She had only ever seen such scenes on TV; this was her first real-life encounter.
