Chapter 62 - Jealous Ji Lingchen

Ji Wen and the Fang couple seemed to be very familiar with each other, which made everyone wonder what kind of relationship he had with Fang Xiaonuan.

Of course, Ji Lingchen was the most concerned about this issue. He had always felt that his little wife and nephew were too close, so he asked Mr. Fang, “Dad, do you know Xiaowen?”

Mr. Fang replied, “Of course we know each other. During the winter and summer holidays, he would often come over to play with Nuannuan. Since he was young, we would basically see him every winter and summer holiday.”

Ji Wen corrected him in his heart. ‘I wasn’t looking to play with your daughter. I was here to do your lazy daughter’s homework.’

Ji Lingchen was furious. It seemed that his wife and his nephew were closer than he had thought. “Does Xiaowen usually come to hang out with Nuannuan often?”

Mrs. Fang thought about it carefully. “These two children have a good relationship. Sometimes, they even go out on weekends.”

These words made Ji Lingchen even more certain that the relationship between the two of them was not ordinary. He turned to look at the girl who had been sitting beside him. Fang Xiaonuan also turned to look at her husband. He let out a cold laugh. Coupled with his cold and emotionless gaze, it made the girl beside him feel inexplicably afraid.

Fang Xiaonuan was fearless, but Ji Lingchen was the first person who could scare her away with just a glance. Fang Xiaonuan blinked her misty eyes a few times. “Hubby, what’s wrong?”

Ji Lingchen said, “Go back and follow me to the study.”

The Ji family had originally come to apologize, but Feng Qi found out that the Fang couple did not complain about her. In the end, it became a family visit instead. After having lunch at the Fang family home, Feng Qi left under the excuse that her husband had work to attend to.

Fang Xiaonuan did not want to leave so early. She excused herself by saying, “I’ll stay at home to pack a few clothes. I’ll go back by myself tomorrow.”

Ji Lingchen knew that she was avoiding him, so he deliberately stayed behind and said, “I’ll help you pack.”

Fang Xiaonuan shook her head. “No, that’s my boudoir.”

Ji Lingchen did not back down. “As your husband, am I not worthy enough to enter your boudoir?” Ji Wen did not leave either. His eyes darted left and right, as though he was waiting for a good show.

In the end, Fang Xiaonuan still brought Ji Lingchen into her pink young lady’s bedroom. Ji Lingchen said that he would help her pack up her clothes. After he entered, he sat on the bed, looking at the decorations around him.

Fang Xiaonuan’s bed sheets were hemmed with lace. There was a huge photo hanging on the wall by her bed. It looked like it was taken during her high school days. The person in the photo did not look much different from her now.

The photo was taken well, and it was very lifelike.

Fang Xiaonuan was not in the mood to pack up her clothes. She had been secretly observing what the man was doing in her room.

When she saw that the man was done admiring her room, he asked Fang Xiaonuan, “Xiaonuan, what is your relationship with Ji Wen?”

Fang Xiaonuan replied, “It’s a classmate and deskmate relationship!”

Ji Lingchen was fuming with jealousy. “If you were just that, why was he meeting your parents?”

Fang Xiaonuan thought of the winter and summer homework that Ji Wen had come to her house to help her with. She hesitated over telling her husband that Ji Wen had always been her little brother.

If she did, given the Ji family’s protective character, would Ji Lingchen think that she was bullying his nephew and stand up for him? Furthermore, she had promised Ji Wen that she would not tell his family about how she bullied him back then.

Fang Xiaonuan thought that she had found a good reason. “That’s because we often went out to play. After a while, he became familiar with my parents.”

Ji Lingchen asked, “Went out to play? What do you guys play?”

Fang Xiaonuan was not good at lying, so she told him what she and her best friend often did. “We went to the movies together, went shopping together, ate together, travelled together…”

“You two went on a trip together?” Hearing this, the jealous Ji Lingchen immediately lost his composure. “Did you stay together when you went on trips?”

“Of course we would stay together! No, no, separate, separate!” Fang Xiaonuan thought she was talking about her best friend, but she suddenly realized that she was talking about Ji Wen, so naturally, they could not have slept together.

Ji Lingchen walked over to his wife with a menacing aura. He looked into her eyes and asked, “Xiaonuan, what is your relationship with Ji Wen?” They had done everything that could be done between a boyfriend and girlfriend. How could they be just ordinary friends?

Fang Xiaonuan took a deep breath. She did not dare to look directly into Ji Lingchen’s eyes. Nothing seemed to escape him. After weighing the pros and cons, she still did not tell the truth. “It’s an ordinary relationship between classmates or deskmates!”

Ji Lingchen could not get anything out of his wife. He was ready to set his sights on his nephew.
