Pampered by My Ex's Cousin-Chapter 125 - 127: Forced Cohabitation (Seventy)

This was indeed the TV drama she had been following whenever she had free time recently, but how did Grandpa know she loved watching it?

Realizing what Ji Anning was thinking, Ji Zhengdao said, "The last time Danning visited our house, I heard you discussing it with her."

So that was it. Still, it was rare for him to remember, and Ji Anning felt unexpectedly flattered, smiling and nodding, "Yes, I quite like it."

Her eyes were fixed on the TV screen, yet her peripheral vision stayed on the elderly man beside her.

A bit nervous, a bit excited too.

She didn’t know why she was excited; it seemed not because he was Ji Jingfeng’s grandfather, but perhaps because he was an elder respected and admired by many.

It was probably like a commoner suddenly being summoned by the emperor.

"What is this TV drama mainly about? I read the introduction, and it seems like a military theme."

The old man looked at Ji Anning and started talking about the television drama.

Ji Anning nodded, "Yes, the female and male leads grew up together in a large courtyard, six years apart. Later, the male lead joined a remote special forces unit, and the female lead, for his sake, despite her family’s objections, joined that special forces unit and became a female special commando."

At this, the old man chuckled, "It turns out to be an inspirational drama targeted at young people like you."

This perspective was quite unique... Ji Anning smiled, "Yes, it is."

Indeed, it was an inspirational drama, one where the heroine bravely chased after love, unafraid of hardships and difficulties.

On the TV screen, the heroine was undergoing rigorous training, doing night weight-bearing marches, while the male lead drove the car following her.

"Nowadays, these TV dramas are too fake, especially those about the war resistance, always ripping apart the enemy as if they were made of paper."

The old man watched the TV and criticized the falseness of modern dramas.

Ji Anning nodded in agreement, "I think so too."

Ji Anning’s nervousness unconsciously relaxed as the atmosphere became more harmonious.

Every now and then, she would hear the old man laugh out loud.

Ji Chicheng entered and saw the happy smiles on the faces of the grandfather and granddaughter sitting on the sofa, and he couldn’t help being surprised.

His tall frame stood at the entryway, observing the girl on the sofa, her face brimming with a smile that she never showed him.

She could even smile so naïvely at such a stern old man, yet towards him, it was nothing but indifference or temper.

"Young Master, the car keys."

Ji Young Master was nursing jealousy towards his father when the butler, having parked the car, brought him the keys.

His train of thought was interrupted, and the harmonious conversation between Ji Anning and Ji Zhengdao was also disrupted.

Their gaze shifted towards the door, and Ji Anning’s smile froze upon seeing Ji Chicheng.

So, when Ji Young Master saw her face again, she was scowling, no, worse than scowling, as if his appearance had spoiled the mood.

He clenched his teeth secretly, stepping forward, "Dad."

He greeted the old man and then sat down beside him, Ji Anning to his left.

"Uncle."

After some hesitation, Ji Anning felt she should greet Ji Chicheng; she nodded slightly, bowing her head without truly looking at Ji Chicheng.

"Hmm." Ji Chicheng responded indifferently, his eyes not meeting Ji Anning’s. He glanced at the TV screen and asked the old man, "When did you start enjoying these naïve girl dramas?"
