Pampered by My Ex's Cousin-Chapter 1122 - 1124: A Familiar Feeling (Part 5)

Qi Helian handed the phone directly to her.

"What got you so upset?" Ji Anning reached out to take the phone and asked Qi Helian with a smile before looking down.

At first, she was frowning in annoyance. She looked up to see Qi Helian’s still dark expression, then she smiled and said, "This article is written quite slickly."

In a joking tone, she looked at the phone screen again and read, "Former rumored lovers hold hands again, airport pickup, together picking up the child, dining, shopping, an extremely happy family of three—this is truly like brothers are limbs, women are clothes, a brother’s clothes can be worn freely, a brother’s child is one’s own child, the little one following our actor Qi calling him ’dad’ so crisply and sweetly, and next to them, the once immensely popular Li Nianjia also smiling happily."

This is the China edition.

There’s also the version from Country Y, which is more reserved.

Ji Anning continued to read, "Chinese well-known actor Qi Helian arrived in L City today, met by his former girlfriend for pickup, the two suspected of rekindling their romance, leaving the airport hand in hand, extremely sweet."

There are also various comments attacking her character, which she did not read out.

She placed the phone on the table, pushed it back to Qi Helian, and seeing his stern face, she asked with a smile, "Why the dark face? Aren’t you used to this by now?"

Without waiting for Qi Helian to say anything, she continued to look at him and asked, "But with such extensive reports, is your PR team using me for a publicity stunt?"

Qi Helian was finally amused by her words and gave her a gentle poke on the forehead, "Hey, I see you’re learning narcissism from Ji Chicheng now."

...

"Yesterday, China’s three-time consecutive winner of various Best Actor awards, Qi Helian, arrived in L City, reportedly for a magazine cover shoot, met by former rumored girlfriend Li Nianjia, both in great spirits, even picking up a child from kindergarten together, looking extremely happy. Informed netizens reveal they have reconciled and are preparing for a wedding."

L City TV station was broadcasting the morning entertainment news.

On the TV screen, a handsome man and a beautiful woman, even though both wore masks and goggles, but still couldn’t hide their smiles.

Ji Chicheng stood behind the sofa, watching the TV screen, frowning tightly.

When the scene switched to the handsome man and beautiful woman dining with a little girl in the restaurant, he suddenly moved to the front of the sofa, bent down, and picked up the remote control from the coffee table, turning off the TV.

Charles then noticed him and asked in surprise, "Cheng, when did you come down?"

After asking, he glanced at the now blank TV screen, a hint of nervousness and panic showing in his deep blue eyes.

This question was so trivial to Ji Chicheng that he didn’t answer Charles.

He bent down to sit down about a person’s distance away.

Without looking at him, he said coldly, "They don’t match at all." 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

Charles frowned and asked, "Who?"

Ji Chicheng replied, "The two people reported on TV earlier, not a good match."

His hands were playing idly with a tissue.

Upon hearing this, Charles shot Ji Chicheng a look of disdain.

Thinking to himself: Oh, sure, like you’re a good match.

Then he looked at Ji Chicheng again and asked tentatively, "They were both wearing masks and glasses just now, how did you tell they don’t match?"

He couldn’t be sure if Ji Chicheng had remembered anything from Ji Anning’s pictures shown on TV earlier.
