Pampered by My Ex's Cousin-Chapter 104 - 106: Forced to Cohabit (Forty-Nine)
Ji Anning tilted her head back, and looked at her defiantly without a hint of submissiveness, "Big sister, what attitude do you want me to have? You tell me not to acknowledge you at school, but isn’t riding in the same car telling everyone that we know each other?"
She knew that Ji Xiangting wanted her to plead with her in a lowly and humble manner, to cling to her apron strings.
But why? She didn’t have anything Ji Xiangting might want.
Ji Anning’s attitude infuriated Ji Xiangting. She stomped on the brake, and the car stopped abruptly.
Ji Anning didn’t anticipate Ji Xiangting’s move. Due to inertia, her head banged against the front, with a ’thud’, causing her to grit her teeth in pain.
"Get out of the car."
Ji Xiangting pointed at the door on Ji Anning’s side and yelled at her.
Ji Anning didn’t look at her again. With one hand over the injured forehead and the other opening the car door, she got out.
Close the door!
With a ’bang’, the whole vehicle jolted, clearly telling Ji Xiangting that she, too, had emotions!
After getting out of the car, Ji Anning walked away without looking back, heading in the direction of the bus stop.
Watching her stubborn and proud figure, Ji Xiangting pressed the horn furiously.
Ji Anning smirked coldly, "If it’s not from one family, one doesn’t enter the home." In this respect, she and her uncle were indeed startlingly similar.
...
Because the wound wasn’t treated in time, by the time she got to school, the spot on Ji Anning’s forehead where she had been hit had swollen significantly, and the pain left her listless and irritable.
"Look, isn’t that the beauty of the Art Faculty? What happened to her head?"
"Pfft, don’t you know? She’s actually the Ji Family’s nanny."
"..."
As she entered the school gates, many people pointed and whispered, discussing her identity.
Ji Family’s Nanny!
One could easily guess who had spread the rumor, it wouldn’t be anyone but Ji Xiangting.
The stares of contempt and disdain from others were something Ji Anning had seen too much of; she was truly numb to them and paid no attention to their words.
Her steps steady, she walked towards the dormitory building.
"Anning."
Suddenly, someone called her from behind. It was Yang Danning’s voice. Ji Anning stopped and turned around.
In her hand, Yang Danning was carrying something resembling a thermos, and she ran toward her with a smile.
"I was just about to look for you."
Seeing Yang Danning’s ingratiating smile, Ji Anning watched her warily, "What for?"
This girl definitely needed something from her, and it usually had something to do with Ji Chicheng.
"Can you help me deliver this to your uncle?" Yang Danning cheerfully held up the thermos she was carrying to Ji Anning.
As expected...
Ji Anning frowned, "Why don’t you deliver it yourself?"
’Ah!’ Yang Danning suddenly looked distressed, "I feel like he’s mad at me. Yesterday, he woke up after eating your Pop Rocks, but he became like a different person all of a sudden, it was so scary."
So scary? What happened to him yesterday?
Ji Anning tried hard to disguise her concern, acting nonchalant, "What happened?"
"He suddenly pulled out the IV needle, and blood was gushing from the back of his hand. He didn’t care at all and just left, and he was really mean to me." 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶
Yang Danning pouted, a bit upset about Ji Chicheng’s attitude towards her from the day before.
On hearing this, Ji Anning’s heart skipped a beat. She immediately remembered the bandage wrapped around Ji Chicheng’s hand the night before.
Wrapped in a bandage... How much blood must have been lost?
"So... did he lose a lot of blood from his hand?"
She looked at Yang Danning speechlessly, struggling to ask.
"Yeah." Yang Danning nodded, then lifted the thermos again, "This is chicken soup I made for him early this morning. It’s got red dates in it, good for replenishing blood."
