Pampered by My Ex's Cousin-Chapter 846 - 838: Starting Face-Slapping Mode (Part 3)

She raised her wine glass, smiling warmly at Ji Chicheng.

She then glanced at everyone present, knowing they all disliked Ji Chicheng and thought this was a good opportunity to set him up.

So, they all followed Yang Danning’s lead, raising their glasses to toast Ji Chicheng one by one, uttering flattery about how close they had been with the old master.

Ji Chicheng accepted each glass with calm resolve.

Though not fond of smiling, his lips still bore a slight, intriguing smile.

As he drank glass after glass, his expression remained unchanged, with only a faint blush, seeming tipsy but not quite drunk.

Once the round was over, a dozen people, each downing their drink in one go, had nearly emptied a bottle of red wine by the end.

At last, it was Ji Jingfeng’s turn. He glanced at Ji Chicheng and a sinister smile flickered in his eyes. He stood up, pulling his girlfriend with him, and raised his glass, "You are my uncle. Others toast you with one glass, but Qia Qi and I should at least toast you with three to make it right."

Qi Helian had been quietly observing all along, and now his interest piqued as he saw Ji Jingfeng also raising his glass to Ji Chicheng.

He glanced at the Ji Chicheng beside him, This guy really had some nerve, letting his own nephew team up with outsiders to trap him.

Now things were getting interesting.

As his longtime friend, he wasn’t worried at all that Ji Chicheng would get drunk and embarrass himself publicly, How many times had Ji Chicheng ever let himself be shamed in public?

Those who wished to humiliate him, in the end, always ended up slapping their own faces with resounding smacks.

Everyone was waiting for Ji Chicheng to respond to Ji Jingfeng.

Ji Chicheng’s eyelids drooped as if he had fallen asleep, motionless.

Just when everyone thought he might have drunk too much and fallen asleep, he suddenly lifted his head, looked at Ji Jingfeng, and saw him holding his wine glass. He smiled faintly, "My dear nephew, when did you become left-handed?"

Ji Jingfeng’s smile abruptly shifted.

Resentment and embarrassment intertwined.

His right hand had been fractured by Ji Chicheng’s kick that day.

Knowing it was embarrassing to mention being hit, he still deliberately brought it up here, infuriating him to the brink of explosion, yet forcing him to hold back.

As Ji Jingfeng seethed with resentment, Ji Chicheng’s voice rang out again, calmly, "I remember now. That day, you accidentally got hurt while beating a female employee at the company."

After finishing his statement, he looked at Ji Jingfeng with slightly raised eyebrows, "Isn’t that right?"

People all around sighed upon hearing this.

In public, Ji Jingfeng always presented himself as a gentleman, respectful and courteous to his elders. Now, hearing he had hit someone, and that someone was a woman,

and had even crippled his own hand doing so, it was hard for everyone to imagine what the female employee must have looked like.

People’s gazes could not help but shift to Ji Jingfeng’s right hand.

Ji Jingfeng was nearly grinding his teeth to dust, his face extremely unsightly.

At that moment, sitting next to Ji Jingfeng’s girlfriend, Yang Danning suddenly spoke up, "Aren’t you and your nephew supposed to be drinking together?"

In the eyes of the onlookers, she seemed to be smoothing things over, but in Ji Chicheng’s eyes,

he lazily lifted his eyelids to look at Yang Danning, "Miss Yang, since when has your relationship with my nephew become so special?"

His eyebrows slightly raised, with a corner of his mouth curved into a profound smile.

Yang Danning’s face changed, "Ji Chicheng, what nonsense are you spouting?"

"If it’s nonsense, why are you so agitated?"
