Pampered by My Ex's Cousin-Chapter 1092 - 1094: Someone Must Be Behind This (Part 2)

"Huh? Isn’t that Xiang Yiqing’s voice?"

Xin Xiaoxiao was originally walking in Fenfen’s direction, but upon hearing Xiang Yiqing’s voice from Ji Anning’s phone, she immediately changed direction and walked over to Ji Anning.

On the other end of the line, Xiang Yiqing likely also heard Xin Xiaoxiao’s voice and warily asked, "Who is that?"

His tone was startled, as if he was about to hang up.

Ji Anning quickly picked up the phone, turned off the speaker, and smiled as she covered the microphone and said to Xin Xiaoxiao, "Miss Xin, I need to take this call."

Then she turned her back to Xin Xiaoxiao and spoke on the phone with Xiang Yiqing, "Dr. Xiang, you’ve had a long journey."

Xiang Yiqing said, "I had some things to deal with after getting off the plane, so I just arrived at the hospital and got out of the car."

Meaning he hadn’t seen Ji Chicheng yet.

Ji Anning nodded, "Then I’ll wait for your call."

Xiang Yiqing made a sound of acknowledgment, and as Ji Anning was about to hang up, Xin Xiaoxiao suddenly reached out and grabbed her phone.

She opened her mouth to speak, but before any sound came out, Xin Xiaoxiao made a ’shh’ gesture to her.

Ji Anning pursed her lips in resignation and shook her head with amusement.

"Xiang Yiqing." Xin Xiaoxiao put the phone to her ear and called out to Xiang Yiqing, knowing he was probably about to hang up, she quickly added, "Your grandpa..."

Upon hearing the word ’grandpa’, Xiang Yiqing instinctively asked, "What about my grandpa?"

A mischievous glint flashed in Xin Xiaoxiao’s dark eyes, mixed with a hint of smugness.

She said, "Your grandpa said he misses you and asked when you’re coming back."

"Did my grandpa really ask?"

Xin Xiaoxiao imagined Xiang Yiqing’s frowning expression as he asked this, and grinned widely.

She shamelessly added, "Then just take it as me asking."

In Ji Anning’s eyes, Xin Tongxie’s face clearly had a lovestruck smile.

"Beep beep beep..."

There was no longer Xiang Yiqing’s pleasant voice in the earpiece, just the busy signal indicating Xin Tongxie had been hung up on.

She took down the phone, glaring discontentedly at the name ’Xiang Yiqing’ on the screen, "Serves you right for not being able to catch a woman!"

She then handed the phone back to Ji Anning and turned to walk towards Fenfen.

"See what stepmom brought you."

Xin Xiaoxiao walked over to Fenfen, bent down to sit on the floor mat, and placed the exquisite little box she was carrying onto it. As she opened it, she said, "Stepmom made Tiramisu by hand; want some?"

When Fenfen heard there was food, her little eyes were glued to the cake box in Xin Xiaoxiao’s hand.

As Xin Xiaoxiao opened it, the little girl suddenly lost interest and shook her head, "Don’t want any."

She shifted her gaze away from the cake Xin Stepmom made by hand and continued playing with her toys.

Fenfen’s reaction was a blow to Xin Xiaoxiao; she frowned in confusion at the little girl, "Why not? Stepmom spent a lot of effort making it for you."

As she spoke, she picked up the Tiramisu cake with both hands and said to Fenfen, "Even though it doesn’t look very good, it tastes great."

Ji Anning was focused on waiting for Xiang Yiqing’s call and didn’t want to get involved with Xin Xiaoxiao and Fenfen; after all, they often played together these days.

But upon hearing Xin Xiaoxiao say she made Tiramisu by hand and seeing it rejected by Fenfen, she couldn’t help but be curious about how bad it was, given that little foodie Fenfen, who usually didn’t care about food presentation, even passed on it.
