Chapter 62: A Kiss on the Back of the Hand

Ji Ning was really skinny. Her body always looked very thin, but now that Ji Qian touched her, she realized that Ji Ning was all skin and bones.

This kind of contact was a novel experience for the two sisters. Although their age gap was not that big, they were not born from the same mother. They had not interacted with each other since they were young. Thus, even though they were sisters, they were like strangers to each other. They usually

would not even greet each other when they bumped into each other at home.

It was only when they hugged each other that they realized what it meant to be connected by blood. Although Ji Qian said that she disliked it, she did not reject Ji Ning’s hug. It was the first time that the impatient and arrogant young miss had such patience. She patted Ji Ning’s thin and small back.

The others watched them hug each other in silence and did not step forward to disturb them.

Seeing this scene, Ji Zhou’s heart was once again filled with a sense of complicated restlessness. He clenched and loosened his fists repeatedly. In the end, he could not help but curse inwardly. He turned around and went downstairs to pour a cup of warm and lightly salted water.

Ji Zhou had always been a noble young master who was constantly bored and wore a gloomy expression. He shoved the cup of water to Ji Ning’s mouth. He said, “Drink some water to replenish some salt in your body before you continue crying. Your voice is so hoarse and unpleasant to hear.”

Ji Ning, who has suddenly shoved a cup of water into her mouth, cried so hard that her throat felt uncomfortable. She subconsciously opened her mouth and took a big gulp.

“Gulp, gulp, gulp, burp.”

Because she drank too quickly, she could not help but burp.

“pétt!”

Ji Ning laughed in embarrassment. She grabbed a few tissues to wipe away the tears and snot on her face. Her face was flushed as she stomped her feet in protest. “Second Brother!”

That was when the others came to their senses. They looked at each other for a while. No one knew who started it, but everyone started laughing in unison.

Ji Ning’s face was flushed from their laughter, but she did not cry anymore. Instead, she pursed her lips and laughed softly. Her eyes flashed with a light that one had never seen before. For the first time, the Ji family, which was always cold, was filled with the warmth and laughter of an ordinary family.

Ji Yan slightly closed his palm. He was still holding Shen Hanxing’s hand.

Shen Hanxing’s fingers were very beautiful, but they did not appear delicate. There were thin calluses on her fingertips that had been left behind from her struggles back when she strove for her livelihood. She had walked out of the slums and mysteriously barged into the Ji family. She brought with her a

different kind of life, giving the Ji family sunshine, rain, dew, and hope.

He wasn’t capable of that.

Ji Yan gently closed his eyes, almost devoutly holding Shen Hanxing’s hand. He planted a gentle kiss on the back of her hand. Shen Hanxing, who was originally smiling, was stunned. She looked down and could not tell if it was Ji Yan’s burning lips that made her involuntarily curl her fingers, or it was

because she was shy.

Her gaze met Ji Yan’s deep, bottomless eyes. Shen Hanxing’s heart trembled, and her heart could not help but beat faster. The others were immersed in a relaxed and warm atmosphere. No one noticed the sudden ambiguous atmosphere between the two of them.

Xiao Yu was the only one who witnessed this scene since he habitually looked at Shen Hanxing. The smile on Xiao Yu’s face gradually disappeared, and the light in his eyes seemed to be slowly dying out.

Ji Yan seemed to have sensed something, and his gaze swept over. He stared at Xiao Yu coldly with a knowing gaze. Xiao Yu was the first to avert his gaze.

“Alright, it’s very late.” Shen Hanxing smiled. She reminded, “It’s time to eat. Let’s hurry up and go downstairs.”

Their dinner was much later than usual today so everyone was a little hungry. After hearing what she said, they swarmed downstairs.

Xiao Yu suddenly said, “You guys go down first. I’m too lazy to move. I want to take the elevator with Mr. Ji Yan.” After he said that, he tilted his head and looked at Ji Yan. He asked, “Mr. Ji, you won’t mind, right?”

“Then I’ll have to trouble you to take care of me, Mr. Xiao Yu,” Ji Yan nodded and said calmly, “Please go ahead.”

The others felt that the atmosphere between the two of them was not quite right. Shen Hanxing wanted to say something, but Ji Qian and Ji Ning tugged her arms and walked downstairs.

After the crowd disappeared, Xiao Yu’s expression became indifferent. He asked in a deep voice, “How are your legs, Mr. Ji?”

“Tm actively treating it. You don’t have to worry about it, Mr. Xiao,” Ji Yan smiled politely. “What have you been doing recently, Mr. Ji? Judging from your age, you’re probably still in school, right?”

“Tm not as smart as Hanxing. I stopped studying a long time ago.”

The elevator door opened, and Xiao Yu pushed Ji Yan into the elevator. Xiao Yu watched as the elevator door slowly closed. However, he was not in a hurry to press the button to go downstairs. “I’m also not as lucky as you, Mr. Ji. You can have whatever you desire..”
