It truly appeared like he never got close to any other girls. His callousness hurt almost all the girls who courted him.
Thinking about the way he treated Danning, it was honestly different. If not for Danning, she would not have the opportunity to come into as much contact with him in that home.
Each time they ended up occasionally walking together after school, it was always because of Danning.
At that time, their school consisted of primary and high school divisions, so they studied on the same campus.
Yang Danning went the entire way cheerfully. She could not suppress her thrill and kept chatting with Ji Anning about Ji Chicheng nonstop.
Ji Anning leaned her arm on the car window against the wind as her lips curved into a knowing smile.
…
The posh living room was deserted without a person in sight.
Ji Anning changed into her slippers and brought Yang Danning inside. Yang Danning went up in front of her like it was her place and was completely unconstrained.
In reality, she seemed more like the owner of the place each time she dropped by.
“Where are your folks?” After setting foot through the door, Yang Danning scoured the living room and then turned to ask Ji Anning.
Ji Anning gently shook her head, gesturing her cluelessness.
“Oh. Danning, you’re here.”
At this moment, the familiar voice of a woman came from upstairs. Ji Anning smiled and looked up, “Mom.”
Yang Yufang came trotting down from upstairs.
“You must be hungry. I’ll get the kitchen to prepare some food to tide you over. We can eat after your little uncle is back,” Yang Yufang looked at Ji Anning lovingly.
“I’m not hungry,” Ji Anning replied Yang Yufang and turned around to look at Yang Danning, “Danning, are you hungry?”
Yang Danning stroked her belly then smacked her lips to say, “I’m not hungry, but I don’t mind having a bite if there’s anything good.”
Her mischievous manner sent Ji Anning and Yang Yufang laughing.
Yang Yufang chuckled, “I knew Anning would come home around this time, so I already baked a cake. I’ll go and bring it over.”
As she spoke, she headed towards the kitchen.
Yang Danning looked at Yang Yufang from behind and sincerely sighed to Ji Anning standing next to her, “Anning, your future mother-in-law treats you so well.”
Ji Anning pursed the corners of her lips and nodded, “Yup, she does.”
She was genuinely kind from the moment she entered this household, treating her like her daughter, and taking care of her more carefully than Jingfeng.
She was also the only person in the family who gave her a sense of warmth…
“Young Master Chicheng.”
The housekeeper’s voice suddenly came from outside the door.
Ji Anning glanced towards the door to see that a statuesque male form had already entered the room.
Ji Chicheng was dressed in a white T-shirt paired with black exercise shorts, and the hair on his forehead was slightly damp. Ji Anning lowered her eyes to peer at the basketball shoes.
So he had gone out to play basketball.
His favorite sport was basketball. When he was in senior high and university, he and Qi Helian represented Ocean City in inter-city competitions a few times.
Back in the day, he was popular at school and a campus legend.
She gave Ji Chicheng a once over then reached to push Yang Danning gently. In a soft tone she teased her, “Little Aunt, Little Uncle is back.”
“You’re so bad,” Yang Danning lowered her head in embarrassment.
Although she seemed mortified by her meanness, her feet had already darted towards him.
“Chicheng.”
As her whiney, “Chicheng”, was too hair-raising for Ji Anning, she disdainfully peered at Yang Danning, who had already gotten right in front of Ji Chicheng.
