In an ambitious and domineering tone, bearing the characteristics of an unshakeable ruler.

Qi Helian abruptly stopped drinking then stared wide-eyed at Ji Chicheng, “Ji Chicheng!”

It sounded like a word of warning.

Although, from the way he looked at Ji Anning, he had some clue. Despite his suspicion, to have Ji Chicheng blatantly reveal his wild aspiration stunned him nonetheless.

Ji Chicheng unhurriedly veered his eyes away. Such composure made Qi Helian seethe with rage, “Ji Chicheng, you’re reprehensible.”

Ji Chicheng continued to look at him calmly.

Qi Helian pointed at him, “But that’s your…”

In hindsight, he glanced around then lowered his voice before continuing to say, “But that’s your nephew’s wife. Your biological nephew’s wife.”

“Hmph,” said Ji Chicheng coldly in disdain. His insidious eyes looked into the distance until ice dregs steadily condensed in them.

A coldness radiated from him, inspiring fear.

Qi Helian knew him well. As he did not reveal his thoughts on a whim, when he did, it meant he was ready to execute his move with 100% confidence that he would succeed.

Instead of convincing him otherwise, he should help by… condoning it.

He was uncertain whether this was right or wrong.

Ji Anning got Mi Ni to retrieve her clothing and a clean white T-shirt. To conceal the love bites on her chest, she deliberately picked out a crew neck, which went above her collar bone.

After getting off the RV, she smoothed her hair out as she walked. As a lot of hair got broken, compounded by the seawater she had to soak in, it looked unkempt even after her efforts to straighten it out.

Ji Chicheng gazed at her as she approached him then unhurriedly veered his eyes away.

“Why didn’t you give Miss Ji’s hair a wash?”

When Ji Anning got closer to them, Qi Helian furrowed his brows and asked his assistant, Mi Ni.

Mi Ni twitched her lips and lamented, “Sigh. A lot of her hair got broken, and the right side of her scalp is swollen. It had better not get wet today.”

On hearing this, the fists on Ji Chicheng’s lap clenched tightly. A foreboding light emitted from his malicious eyes.

Instinctively, Qi Helian cast an eye on Ji Chicheng as he took in his full reaction. Following that, he indifferently told his assistant, who was standing next to him, “Mi Ni, tell Director Wang that we won’t be filming today.”

Ji Anning neither got involved in whether Qi Helian was filming nor felt responsible for it.

She only wanted to leave as soon as she could. After all, she was in Qi Helian’s territory, hanging out with him made her conspicuous. If they got filmed by the paparazzi, the people back home would find out she was working as a body double, even if Ji Chicheng did not say a word.

As she contemplated, she walked up in front of Ji Chicheng to smile ingratiatingly, “Little Uncle, I’m going off now.”

Ji Chicheng narrowed his eyes, appearing ever so indifferent. Then he turned to leave without so much as responding to Ji Anning.

Seeing that Ji Anning was going, he automatically peered at Ji Chicheng, who continued narrowing his eyes unflappably.

You’re so good at acting cool!

Inside his heart, Young Master Qi griped about Young Master Ji then looked up to see that Ji Anning had gone afar. He shouted promptly, “Wait, Mrs. Ji Jingfeng.”

Yes, he did it on purpose.

After shouting, he paid no attention to Ji Chicheng’s expression. Without taking a single look, he could visualize his Baozheng face.

Hmph, that was for him acting arrogant and being evil-hearted.

Ji Anning heard Qi Helian calling her. Although reluctant, she stopped out of courtesy and turned around to look quizzically at him. “Yes, Young Master Qi?”
