Fang Ning picked up a piece of dessert with chopsticks, nodded, and said briskly to the other end of the phone: “Got it.”

　　Ji Xiangchen’s voice was obviously filled with joy when he heard Fang Ning’s words: “That’s good. I told you that this dessert is really delicious. So, if you like it, I’ll call and place an order for a month, and have the store deliver it to your home every day.”

　　Because Fang Ning was using a loudspeaker, Ji Xiangnian could also hear what Ji Xiangchen said on the phone.

　　Hearing Ji Xiangchen’s voice, Ji Xiangnian paused slightly while picking up the food.

　　His hot-tempered brother ordered takeout for Fang Ning and was thoughtful enough to order a month’s worth of takeout for Fang Ning.

　　He felt that in the short few hours since he came back from his business trip, things had changed so fast that he almost didn’t recognize Xiang Chen and Xiang Yi, and he also didn’t recognize this home anymore.

　　He was just on a business trip, he wouldn’t be gone for three to five years. The world is peaceful now, how come things changed so quickly?

　　How come his younger brother and sister turned against him so quickly without his knowledge?

　　Fang Ning and Ji Xiangchen had no idea about Ji Xiangnian’s mood changes.

　　When Fang Ning heard Ji Xiangchen say that he wanted to order desserts for her for a month, her first thought was to refuse: “No, it’s delicious if you eat it once or twice, but you’ll get sick of it if you eat it too much. I’d better not do it.”

　　A somewhat disappointed and dull voice came from the phone: “In that case, then okay.”

　　Fang Ning smiled and picked up a piece of dessert for herself. When she raised her eyes, she saw Ji Xiangnian eating calmly.

　　Fang Ning slapped her head in her heart, how could she forget about this man! She was chatting so happily with his brother in front of Ji Xiangnian.

　　Fang Ning felt embarrassed to leave him there alone, so she quickly tried to make amends for herself: “Your brother is back, this dessert is delicious, I’ll ask your brother if he wants some.”

　　Fang Ning quickly used her eyes to invite Ji Xiangnian to eat the takeaway dessert that Ji Xiangchen ordered: “There are still a lot, let’s eat together.”

　　Ji Xiangnian certainly would not refuse his brother’s kindness.

　　But just as Ji Xiangnian reached for the dessert takeaway box.

　　Ji Xiangchen’s cold voice came from the phone on the desk, with a hint of disdain: “This is the takeaway I ordered specifically for you. If he wants to eat it, buy it himself.”

　　”For a man that big, does he have no hands or feet?”

　　”You are not allowed to feed him.”

　　The chopsticks in Ji Xiangnian’s hand froze in mid-air.

　　Fang Ning: “…”

　　What should she do? She felt very embarrassed now. She thought that given her current embarrassing situation, she could deduct the price of a three-bedroom, one-living-room apartment.

　　In the plot, Ji Xiangchen, Ji Xiangyi and Ji Xiangzhou have no feelings for Ji Xiangnian and do not like Ji Xiangnian.

　　But as the eldest brother, Ji Xiangnian is very eager to gain the respect of his younger brothers and sisters, hoping to be a good brother in their minds.

　　However, this situation now happened to her, and in front of Ji Xiangnian.

　　Help, how is this different from having your home stolen when playing King of Glory! Now it seems like I have stolen Ji Xiangnian’s home and kidnapped his younger brother and sister, including their hearts.

　　Fang Ning felt that Ji Xiangnian would hate her to death.

　　Ji Xiangchen was still chattering on the phone, and said in a threatening tone: “I’m telling you, this is the takeaway I ordered for you, you can’t give it to others, otherwise I won’t order takeaway for you in the future.”

　　Fang Ning: “…………”

　　Wake up! Brother, Ji Xiangnian is not someone else! He is your brother!

　　If possible, she would definitely hang up Ji Xiangchen’s call without hesitation!

　　Fang Ning felt Ji Xiangnian’s deathly gaze moving over her.

　　In order to prevent Ji Xiangchen from saying something that would make him hate her, Fang Ning thought for a moment and quickly said, “Okay, okay, I still have to eat lunch. I’ll hang up first.”

　　Ji Xiangchen was a little reluctant on the phone: “Okay, let me make it clear to you before I hang up. Remember, the takeaway is for you alone. Don’t give it to others.”

　　”Okay, okay.” Fang Ning was about to hang up the phone, but she noticed that Ji Xiangnian’s thoughtful eyes had been lingering on the phone. She reflexively handed the phone to Ji Xiangnian: “You want to talk to Xiang Chen?”

　　Ji Xiangnian nodded, put down his chopsticks and reached out to take Fang Ning’s phone.

　　But the next second, the phone beeped and Ji Xiangchen hung up the call.

　　Fang Ning: “…”

　　Did Ji Xiangchen want her to die at the hands of his brother?

　　Ji Xiangnian, who couldn’t answer the call, shook his head and sighed, with helplessness and a hint of loneliness in his eyes.

　　But he quickly covered it up. After a moment, he slowly said, “You seem to have a good relationship with Xiang Chen and the others.”

　　To be honest, Ji Xiangnian was a little curious about how Fang Ning did it. If possible, he really wanted to ask her for advice so that he could use it to improve the relationship between him, Ji Xiangyi and old three.

　　Fang Ning felt a lot of pressure. She gritted her teeth, met Ji Xiangnian’s gaze, and smiled awkwardly: “It’s okay, it’s okay.”

　　This little episode passed just like that, and Ji Xiangnian didn’t say anything else afterwards, so Fang Ning felt relieved.

　　After dinner, Ji Xiangnian went into the study.

　　Fang Ning had nothing else to do today, so she returned to her room at noon, read the script for an hour or two, and then went to bed.

　　When she woke up and looked at the time, it was already past five in the afternoon. She felt so depressed, really depressed.

　　Fang Ning quickly got up, put on some sportswear, and planned to go out for some exercise.

　　When I opened the door, Ji Xiangnian had just walked out of the study not far away. He was frowning, not knowing what was going on. His brows were slightly furrowed, surrounded by deep fatigue.

　　He changed out of his suit and put on a pair of casual trousers and a casual top.

　　Different from the seriousness and formality of a suit.

　　Casual wear brings a sense of laziness and casualness to him.

　　Ji Xiangnian has a good figure, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist. He is much better than those models on the Internet. He is simply a walking clothes rack.

　　Of course, the most attractive thing is his long straight legs. They are straight and powerful, and it is easy to make people have wild thoughts at first sight.

　　Fang Ning was slightly stunned when she saw this. This man did have a good appearance and was quite attractive.

　　Ji Xiangnian came over and saw that she looked a little dazed. He thought something was wrong and asked, “What’s the matter?”

　　When asked by Ji Xiangnian, Fang Ning instantly came back to her senses, calmly retracted her gaze, and shook her head: “No, did you just finish work?”

　　”Yeah.” Ji Xiangnian replied to Fang Ning with just one cold word.

　　Fang Ning curled her lips. This man was as cold as ever. She was very curious about who would be able to win over such a cold and ruthless man in the end.

　　The plot of the book only explains the emotional ending of the heroine and the hero. As for Ji Xiangnian’s final emotions and who he was with, there is no detailed explanation.

　　That Xia Qing?

　　In the plot, Xia Qing is the daughter of Ji Xiangnian’s partner. She fell in love with Ji Xiangnian at first sight and has been secretly in love with him ever since.

　　Just like in the campus crush novels, she likes Ji Xiangnian. What kind of crush is that which lasts forever, and one person strives hard to follow his back.

　　The book clearly describes Xia Qing’s love for Ji Xiangnian, but the author did not describe who he fell in love with from Ji Xiangnian’s perspective.

　　Of course, he did not describe what he felt towards Xia Qing.

　　Is there really no one? No, could it be that this man will keep his heart sealed for his entire life and never love anyone?

　　”Madam, the phone is ringing.” Fang Ning was deep in thought when the housekeeper in the living room downstairs raised the landline at home and called out to her.

　　Fang Ning gave Ji Xiangnian a look in return, turned around and went downstairs. Ji Xiangnian looked at a few documents.

　　He was a little hungry, and he came out just to find something to eat, so he followed Fang Ning downstairs.

　　Fang Ning couldn’t figure out who found out why the caller didn’t call her but called Ji’s landline instead: “Who’s looking for me?”

　　Butler Li smiled and said, “It’s Master Xiang Zhou.”

　　Following Fang Ning, Ji Xiangnian walked down steadily and paused slightly, his eyes full of confusion. After Xiang Chen finished looking, it was Xiang Zhou’s turn.

　　Fang Ning didn’t understand. They had clearly exchanged phone numbers, so why didn’t he call her directly? She took the phone from the housekeeper and said, “What’s wrong? What do you want from me?”

　　The young man’s cold and depressed voice came from inside: “Why didn’t you answer my call just now? I called you many times, but you didn’t answer.”

　　Fang Ning took out her cell phone from her pocket and saw that all the calls were from Ji Xiangzhou.

　　Fang Ning apologized: “I’m sorry, I was sleeping just now and turned on silent mode, so I didn’t notice your call. You called me so many times, is there something urgent?”

　　When Ji Xiangnian heard this, a bit of worry flashed across his eyes. He came over and joined their conversation. He asked inconspicuously, “Is it Xiang Zhou? What happened?”

　　Fang Ning was chatting with Ji Xiangzhou. Seeing Ji Xiangnian coming back, Fang Ning thought that he wanted to listen, so she handed the phone to Ji Xiangnian: “Xiangzhou, your brother is back, talk to him.”

　　Ji Xiangzhou didn’t know Fang Ning had already handed the phone to Ji Xiangnian. He said in an unhappy tone, “I don’t want to talk to him. The midterm exam results are out, and the head teacher asked me to invite the parents. Are you free? If you are, can you come over?”

　　”Don’t give the phone to that person. There’s nothing for him and I to talk about.”

　　”I don’t want to call him either.”

　　Ji Xiangnian: “…”

　　There was silence on the other end of the phone. Ji Xiangzhou guessed coldly, “Is it because he is next to you and it is inconvenient for you to talk? Let’s talk in private so that he can’t hear us.”

　　”It’s so annoying. He even interferes when I call you. Isn’t it annoying?”

　　The phone was leaking audio, and Fang Ning and Ji Xiangnian were standing very close to each other, so Fang Ning heard every word Ji Xiangzhou said.

　　The more I listened to Ji Xiangzhou’s words, the more I felt something was wrong.

　　Ji Xiangnian was clearly there, but he said he would contact her secretly without Ji Xiangnian’s knowledge.

　　Something is wrong, not right at all!

　　Young man, please stop talking!

　　At this moment, she felt like her toes had been dug out of the three-bedroom apartment.

　　She really wanted to hit herself to death.

　　Ji Xiangnian listened to Ji Xiangzhou’s words without much change in his expression. Or, having just experienced what Ji Xiangchen did, he was not too shocked by Ji Xiangzhou’s behavior.

　　Ji Xiangzhou was still coldly complaining about himself. Ji Xiangnian coughed and said in a steady voice with a hint of helplessness: “Xiangzhou, it’s me.”

　　The voice of the young man who was still talking on the other end of the phone suddenly stopped. After a long silence, a beeping tone suddenly came from the other end of the phone. Fang Ning, who heard the whole process, said: “…………”

　　Help! She felt that Ji Xiangnian’s dissatisfaction with her must have increased a lot.

　　After the call was hung up, Ji Xiangnian looked at Fang Ning’s gentle and calm eyes with a bit of confusion. After a moment, he thought about it and slowly uttered a few words: “How did you do this?”

　　He was not questioning, he was truly confused and curious, and also puzzled. In just a few days, he won over their hearts one by one.

　　It’s quite impressive, and the method of winning people’s hearts is very powerful.

　　Fang Ning felt so embarrassed.

　　Of course, Ji Xiangnian didn’t dwell on this matter, and just said calmly: “I haven’t been to Xiang Zhou’s parent-teacher conference in all these years. Ask him about the time of the parent-teacher conference, and then we can go together.”

　　Fang Ning smiled and said, “Okay, I understand. I’ll ask him about the time later.”

　　———

　　In the evening, after taking a shower, Fang Ning sat in front of the dressing table in her pajamas, blowing her hair, and received the notice of the time for Ji Xiangzhou’s parent-teacher meeting, which would be held tomorrow.

　　The time came very suddenly, and I don’t know if Ji Xiangnian has the time.

　　Her hair was not dry yet, Fang Ning wiped it, picked up the hair dryer to blow dry her hair, and was about to find Ji Xiangnian to tell him the time.

　　But just as she put down the hair dryer, she heard a knock on the door.

　　She hurried over to open the door without even tidying up her clothes, and when she looked up, it turned out to be Ji Xiangnian.

　　Ji Xiangnian’s gaze could not help but flicker over Fang Ning. He paused slightly, his eyes darkening.

　　Fang Ning noticed that Ji Xiangnian was in a strange mood, so she followed his gaze towards herself.

　　It was only then that she realized that because she was busy chatting with Ji Xiangzhou, the top button was not buttoned, and half of it hung directly to the right shoulder, revealing her white swan neck and collarbone.

　　Moreover, Ji Xiangnian was quite tall, and he was standing in front of her, so he could look down from his angle.

　　Fang Ning imagined the scene. Help! It was so embarrassing!

　　She felt so embarrassed that she could deduct a large three-bedroom apartment! Three bedrooms and a living room!

　　Fang Ning gritted her teeth and turned around awkwardly, buttoning up her clothes.

　　Ji Xiangnian also withdrew his gaze without leaving a trace, his expression unclear.

　　After buttoning up her clothes, Fang Ning calmed down and turned around, returning to normal, pretending to be calm: “Is there something wrong?”
