Pampered by My Ex's Cousin-Chapter 234 - 228 I Miss You! (20)

"No, I’m heading back to the city tomorrow. I’ll bring your brother-in-law along for some fun, and we can have an early honeymoon," she said.

After sending a bunch of scenic photos, Yang Danning sent a text message, and even from just the text, one could feel her excited anticipation.

N city... Danning is in M country.

’He just arrived in M country and is now rushing back...’

Ji Anning remembered that Ji Chicheng had also just returned from M country, so he and Danning...

At that thought, she looked up at Ji Chicheng, who was still sleeping soundly, the atmosphere as quiet as ever, but Ji Anning’s heart was stirred and unsettled.

The phone in her hand was still vibrating incessantly. She shifted her gaze from Ji Chicheng and looked down at her phone screen, where Yang Danning had sent her many photos.

All were scenic shots.

She wasn’t in the mood to appreciate them, and was about to close their chat conversation when Yang Danning suddenly sent two more photos—a close-up of Ji Chicheng’s handsome face and what seemed to be a photo of both of them, though Ji Chicheng was only partially visible.

At least they were in the same frame.

In that close-up, he was facing the light, his brows and eyes, his white shirt, everything looked so bright and charming.

Ji Anning’s heart was in turmoil. She didn’t reply to a single message from Yang Danning, unsure of what to say. Her reply would only be deceitful, so she simply pretended not to see.

She turned off her phone, then clutching it, she hugged her knees and looked at Ji Chicheng, recalling the photos Yang Danning had just sent her.

So, before rushing back, he and Danning were together in M country. They had gone to M country together.

Would they still be strolling through the streets of M country, having an early honeymoon if it weren’t for her accident?

No matter whether his feelings for Danning were genuine or not, in theory, she was the other woman, and even more despicable as such.

Ji Anning stared at the man in bed, her heart filled with reluctance and pain, yet she was clear that between Danning and him, she could only choose one.

No... to put it correctly, among everything she now had, including Danning, her mother who treated her like her own daughter from childhood, and her grandfather who had just started to care about her, she could only choose one.

She thought for a long, long time, her eyes reddening and welling up with tears.

Brother-in-law, why didn’t you just rip out my heart and lungs, then I could carelessly be with you without minding anything.

...

"Nianjia, you’ve been home for such a long time this visit. Did something happen?"

In the old-style two-room apartment, the living room was basically a corridor, not even big enough for a dining table, just a small square table with three dishes and a soup on it.

Though the dishes were mostly vegetarian, they were prepared refreshingly and looked appetizing.

Facing her mother’s continuous probing about why she came back and why she had delayed her departure, Ji Anning always responded lightly, "Nothing’s wrong. I just missed you and dad."

After saying this, she gave a slight smile to her mother, whose hair at the temples had turned white, and then lowered her head to continue eating.

"Won’t your grandfather and your mother be upset that you’ve stayed for so long?"

Her mother was still not reassured, worrying as she served more food to her.

Ji Anning gently shook her head, "Mom, really, it’s nothing. My mother..."

Looking at her mother’s cloudy eyes and significantly wrinkled face, Ji Anning paused for a moment, then changed her words, "My mother-in-law is currently recuperating on the island, and grandfather has been very kind to me lately."
