Pampered by My Ex's Cousin-Chapter 806 - 798: Your Ex-Girlfriend’s Wedding (Part 4)

Pushing open the door, the first thing that entered Ji Anning’s sight was the Golden Coastline, a stunning view that unexpectedly captivated her.

"Young Master Ji."

Ji Anning’s gaze was attracted by the scenic view outside the floor-to-ceiling window when suddenly an old man’s voice in the private room interrupted her enjoyment.

Only then did she notice an old man in his sixties or seventies standing by the large round dining table, alongside a similarly aged old woman.

Ji Anning looked at them, feeling they looked familiar, and she glanced questioningly at Ji Chicheng beside her.

Ji Chicheng introduced them to her, "These are Director Ma and Mrs. Ma from the company."

Upon hearing this, Ji Anning hurriedly greeted them politely, "Hello."

So it was them. No wonder she found them familiar. This elderly couple used to often visit the Ji Family when she was little. It was said that Director Ma was the largest shareholder in the company apart from the Ji Family.

The old master had been very close to him before his passing.

"Miss Anning has grown up so much," Mrs. Ma said affectionately.

Ji Anning shyly pursed her lips, realizing that running into Director Ma and Mrs. Ma on this vacation island was definitely not by chance; this must be the main purpose of their trip to the island.

From Ji Chicheng’s phone conversations over the past few days, she guessed that Ji Jingfeng was ambitiously aiming to unify J.C and must already have some shares. Now that his aunt was wholeheartedly siding with Ji Jingfeng, if the 32% of the shares ended up in Ji Jingfeng’s hands, the situation would be hard to reverse.

By then, even if Ji Jingfeng’s true identity were revealed, they wouldn’t be able to do anything about him since he was, after all, an adopted son of the Ji Family. The law doesn’t stipulate that an adopted son can’t inherit property, and nobody would delve into how he came by his adopted status.

So what they needed to do now was to prevent Ji Jingfeng from acquiring more shares from other shareholders and from building his power and influence.

Actually, the uncle had been somewhat of a nonentity in J.C because everyone saw Ji Jingfeng as the chosen successor since childhood, and in everyone’s eyes, Ji Chicheng was at most a favored illegitimate child of the Ji Family.

When meeting him, they would give him face for the old master’s sake.

Now that the old master was gone, it would be very difficult for him to compete with Ji Jingfeng for the company as an illegitimate child.

This was all less complicated than simply revealing Ji Jingfeng’s identity to Ji Mingyue and everyone else right now.

This was the first time they had encountered acquaintances other than the Ji Family since making their relation public, and Ji Anning felt somewhat awkward, especially since Mrs. Ma had just greeted her saying she had grown so much.

When she had seen them as a child, she had been the granddaughter-in-law of the Ji Family, and now she had become the daughter-in-law of the Ji Family.

What a relationship! Sigh!

"Don’t be shy. Please, have a seat,"

Mrs. Ma said warmly, inviting them.

Ji Chicheng took Ji Anning’s hand and walked toward the dining table. Ji Anning blushed, feeling too embarrassed to look at Director Ma and his wife.

"This little fellow is truly adorable," Mrs. Ma said, sitting next to Ji Anning. She stared at Fenfen’s face, then looked at Ji Chicheng and Ji Anning, and smilingly said, "He does look a bit more like Anning."

Ji Anning always felt there was something suggestive in the old lady’s gaze and smile, which made her particularly embarrassed.

She responded with a sheepish smile. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

The vast dining room, with just the four adults and one child, seemed very spacious and luxurious.
