Pampered by My Ex's Cousin-Chapter 631 - 623 Gambling on Football (Part 1)

"Jingfeng, are you alright?"

Ji Anning walked past Ji Jingfeng, and the woman who had just been fighting with her for the silver fungus and pear juice only then dared to help Ji Jingfeng.

Even in her urgency, unaware of her mistake, her voice was so coquettishly soft that it melted bones.

Ji Anning scoffed coldly, men as faithful as her uncle were truly rare in this world.

Did the once devoted Ji Jingfeng, who had not hesitated to demand her life for Bai Guo, still remember who Bai Guo was?

In the past year, the old master had seemed to relax his control over him a lot. She occasionally paid attention to domestic news, and always saw tabloid news about Ji Jingfeng, the Vice President of J.C.

In the Ji Family, this had been a taboo.

’Grandfather is already preparing a press conference to abdicate in my favor...’

She still couldn’t believe that the face-saving old master would hand over the Ji Family to Ji Jingfeng, who had no blood relation to the Ji Family.

To abdicate to Ji Jingfeng, kidnapping Fenfen before she and her cousin returned.

What exactly was the old man planning? What move was he planning to make?

"Let’s continue soaking to ward off the bad luck."

Ji Anning followed Qi Helian and hadn’t gone far when she saw Ji Chicheng. He was draped in a bath towel, his tall frame standing there, his handsome face stern.

The moment Ji Anning looked up and saw him, she realized how nervous she had been facing Ji Jingfeng just now.

In that moment, she felt a sense of security and quickened her pace, walking up to Ji Chicheng and looking up at him, "Uncle, let’s go back to M country."

Never to come back, to live a peaceful life, oblivious to worldly matters.

"Okay," Ji Chicheng nodded.

This was exactly what he had been thinking. He had wanted to take her away two years ago, no... a long time ago.

"I really sacrificed my good looks to cover for you two; you should give me some credit," complained Qi Helian, who felt ignored.

Ji Chicheng’s gaze turned to him, "I see you’ve been quite committed to your cover."

Qi Helian: "..."

He watched the retreating figures of Ji Chicheng and Ji Anning, frowning in puzzlement. Quite committed? Was it really that... obvious?

...

"Jingfeng, are you okay?"

"Get lost!"

Ji Jingfeng got up and irritably pushed away the coquettish woman beside him, his eyes darkly fixed on the direction where Ji Anning and Qi Helian had disappeared.

"Ji Anning, you wait for me."

This wasn’t the first time Ji Anning had caused Qi Helian to beat him up in public.

It was one thing for her to disappear last time, but this time she had provoked him again. It was a perfect opportunity to settle new scores along with old. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

"Let’s not let a scumbag ruin our mood, come on."

They returned to the area of the hot spring pools they were at before, and Qi Helian, pulling Ji Chicheng along, pointed to a nearby empty pool, saying to them, "I’ve just reserved another pool, you feudal miser, take Ji Anning over there."

While saying this, she pushed Ji Chicheng towards that pool.

"You two enjoy yourselves there, Fenfen and I will stay out of your way," she said.

Ji Anning hadn’t thought much about it initially, but Qi Helian’s pointed addition of "nobody will disturb you" made her feel embarrassed.

She stopped, her face flushing as she glanced at Ji Chicheng and whispered, "Let’s not soak anymore."

"Don’t be such a killjoy, young master. I rarely clear my schedule," Qi Helian went back, preparing to grab Ji Anning’s arm.

However, Ji Chicheng’s figure flashed past him, reaching Ji Anning first and taking one of her hands, leading her toward the empty pool.
