Pampered by My Ex's Cousin-Chapter 126 - 128: Forced Cohabitation (Seventy-One)

He looked at the old man, his eyebrows slightly furrowed, his eyes filled with a hint of puzzlement.

Ji Zhengdao said with a cheerful laugh, "This is what Anning likes to watch."

At this moment, Ji Anning’s little face was already turning slightly dark.

He had only glanced at it, so how could he know this was a soap opera?

Okay, so this drama indeed featured actors with good looks and all sorts of melodramatic plots, but did liking such shows equate to ignorance?

Hehe, and were the NBA games he watched, this country’s so-called heroes, that country’s league, some team captain, not brainless or ignorant?

Those exaggerated with special effects, lacking any semblance of reality, were not even comparable to a pure romance drama like this one.

Ji Anning stared seriously at the TV screen, determined to watch, in love with the show.

"Heh!"

Upon hearing the old man’s reply, Ji Chicheng let out a sneer as if to say: no wonder.

Ji Anning sneered inwardly as well, thinking of the self-righteous guy who always thought he was so superior, always looking down on this and that.

She kept her eyes glued to the screen, but her thoughts were constantly mocking the man next door.

Stealing glances at him from the corner of her eye, wanting to leave yet also wanting to stay, she was caught in a dilemma.

"Have you been very busy with work recently?"

The old man asked while turning his head back to look at Ji Chicheng.

Ji Chicheng leaned back completely, his hands behind his head, gazing lazily at Ji Anning.

Ji Anning still focused on the TV screen, her smooth and full cheeks reflecting the changing colors of the show, deeply engrossed in watching.

Yet he watched her being engrossed, knowing the old man was looking over, only then did he shift his attention away from Ji Anning’s face and absentmindedly ’hmm’ed in response to the old man.

Ji Zhengdao said, "Free up this weekend. I want to invite Danning’s grandfather and parents over to our house."

At these words, Ji Anning’s gaze flickered slightly, and she lost all pretense of watching TV intently. Lowering her eyelids, she prepared to greet the old man and head upstairs.

All of a sudden, Ji Chicheng straightened up and frowned at the old man, saying, "Dad, you really shouldn’t worry about this matter anymore."

He looked a bit annoyed, but the elder continued in a gentle voice, "You may not be in a hurry, but Jingfeng and Anning’s matter is pressing. They don’t have time to waste. It’d be good if they could settle down soon and I could hold a great-grandson while I still live."

Ji Chicheng nodded, "Sure, you just wait."

The old man could live another five hundred years and still not wait for a great-grandson from Ji Anning; a grandson was more likely.

"But as their uncle, you’re not yet married. If they marry before you, how will outsiders view our family, how will they view you?" the old man said, his brow furrowing with concern.

It was clear how eagerly the old man longed for his eldest grandson to provide him with a great-grandson.

Hearing the old man go on about them, Ji Chicheng raised an eyebrow at the elder in annoyance, "I’m not even a father yet, and you want me to be a grandfather?"

’Pff’

What had been a serious, embarrassingly blush-inducing, and sorrowfully worrying topic, upon hearing Ji Chicheng’s remark about not wanting to be a grandfather so early, she couldn’t help but laugh, lacking any composure.

Ji Anning snorted, realizing she had lost her composure. She quickly covered her mouth with her hand, her eyes wide as she looked from the old man to Ji Chicheng’s face which was gradually darkening.

She promptly shifted her gaze away.
