The moment he answered the voice, Ji Ning's heartbeat seemed to be missing.

There was silence on the other end.

"Hey?" Ji Ning called out and asked softly, "Is it you?"

Cheng Yi's hand who was flipping through the documents stopped, and his voice was low: "Yeah."

Hearing this sound, Ji Ning suddenly felt a little sour inside. The hand on the table was slightly clenched, and then raised his pink lips and said in surprise: "Your voice sounds so nice."

Cheng Yi leaned back slightly on the chair, his eyes falling on her avatar.

It was a cute rabbit, as lively as her. Sometimes I was happy, jumping up and down, and I would send him several sixty-second voice messages.

So he is no stranger to her voice.

Three years ago, Cheng Yi was at the trough of his life. After publishing his works on the online platform, he did not pay much attention. Ji Ning kept pestering him and asked for contact information.

After being pestered for a long time, Cheng Yi even applied for a number.

Since then, there seems to be a chatterbox around Cheng Yi. In the past three years, every little thing that happened to her has happened to her has liked to share with him.

Before I knew it, I got used to her existence.

Cheng Yi now opens this QQ from time to time to see if there is any news from her to reply.

"Is it convenient for you to listen to me?" Ji Ning asked.

Cheng Yi closed the pen: "Yes."

"I encountered something particularly magical. I told you, I found my biological parents, and I became a daughter. Are you surprised?"

"I was a little scared, but I was back."

"Life has not improved because of this. No one will be able to look down on an orphan. If I had known it, I would not have come back. I would have been forced to attend a birthday party of the Cheng family."

...

Ji Ning was talking nonsense there, talking about the grievances in his heart to Cheng Yi.

After all, he was still a little girl with a stubborn temper. When he returned to the Ji family, he was sensitive to his words and expressions, and had awkward and stubborn self-esteem.

Life is not satisfactory and full of sadness.

In Ji Ning's heart, Cheng Yi was the elder brother who could listen. With his trust, he choked up his words several times and forced himself to smile.

Through the phone, Cheng Yi could hear her secretly sobbing and holding back her breathing.

Cheng Yi's dark eyes were deep and his handsome eyebrows were furrowed.

The birthday party of the Cheng family? Return to the home of biological parents? The surname is Ji.

Cheng Yi quickly thought about the Ji family. The Ji family's daughter who had been lost for more than ten years has returned, which has indeed caused a sensation in the circle.

Is it her?

Cheng Yi is seven years older than Ji Ning. In his eyes, she has always been a little girl with a sensitive and delicate mind. Fortunately, she is quite good at lying to herself and believes that all the bad things will eventually pass.

In recent years, he has been like witnessing the growth process of a little girl, and he did not expect such a change.

According to Ji Ning's temperament, she probably had a hard time. She still had a tenacity and stubbornness in her bones, and she would probably suffer a lot.

Cheng Yi thought for a while and said, "If you have already happened, don't worry about what has happened. Take the road under your feet and don't make things difficult for yourself. I think you still have to go to that birthday party."

The Ji family is currently actively establishing a good relationship with the Cheng family. If they don’t go, according to Ji’s father’s personality, they may be able to show their faces.

Speaking of the people from the Ji family, Cheng Yi pursed his thin lips and pursed his eyes deeply.

"I know." Ji Ning nodded, and changed the subject, "You said that when I can invite me to dinner when I have a song, when will I treat me to dinner?"

She wanted to see him soon.

According to the novel plot, they met for the first time nearly seven months after all because of various coincidences. At that time, Cheng Yunzhe and her had experienced several fierce collisions.

This time, she wanted to see Cheng Yi first.

Before Cheng Yi could reply, Ji Ning added: "You said that no matter how good your grades are, you will definitely come to treat me to a meal. You won't regret it, right? I won't allow it!"

"Won't."

"You promise, you swear." Ji Ning emphasized.

This serious look reminded Cheng Yi that the songs he posted on the Internet suddenly became famous. Ji Ning was very panicked and sent him a lot of messages every day, asking him to promise not to ignore her.

She is as serious as ever.

Cheng Yi said, "Yes, swear."

"You said you promise, you swear." Ji Ning muttered quietly, "Otherwise, I'd just be perfunctory and accompany you all the way, and the guy who unconditionally supported you and admired you."

Cheng Yi curled a very shallow smile on the corner of his lips, but he still agreed to her: "I promise, I swear I will treat you to a meal."

"When?" She wanted to see him soon.

"Yeah." Cheng Yi looked at the arrangements for the next two days and gave a positive answer, "How about having supper the day after tomorrow?"

"Okay." Ji Ning responded happily, and his voice was a little excited.

Cheng Yi's irritable mood tonight was stretched a lot, and the smile on the corners of his lips had not dissipated.

"Your voice sounds really nice, better than the singing." Ji Ning praised Cheng Yi again, and said a little embarrassed, racking his brains to praise him, "I can hear it in the crowd."

Cheng Yi was often praised by her posts online, and said it was the first time he said face to face. His smile on the corner of his lips unconsciously deepened: "Is that true?"

"Um!"

...

The two chatted for a while, and ended with Ji's mother coming to find Ji Ning.

Ji Ning was hoping to see Cheng Yi before the birthday party. She really didn't like that place. After meeting, she went there to take care of her.

She was a freshman this year and attended T-U.

Ji's mother looked down on her upbringing, so she didn't feel embarrassed when she studied. After all, Ji Qianqian spent a lot of money to make up for her lessons since childhood, and also had to rely on her art score to get into a key university. She passed by herself.

When talking about Ji Ningshi to others, what Ji’s father and mother praised was her learning ability.

Ji Ning originally lived in the school, but his father asked the driver to pick her up every day on the grounds that he missed her. He was going to see Cheng Yi tonight, so Ji Ning found an excuse to live in the school at night.

The Ji family did not arouse any doubts.

She started preparing in the afternoon, carefully pondering every process from skin care to makeup, and putting on a green print from a long skirt to highlight her slender figure and fair skin.

Looks fresh and well-behaved.

"Hey, have you seen the Bentley parked on the school road?"

"I saw it, come and pick up Ji Qianqian. That man is said to be a rich second generation."

"It must be a rich second generation. When she was on the show, she said family marriage. Isn't that the novel plot reflected in reality? Rich people are indeed only with rich people."

...

The two roommates spoke and pushed open the door. They were stunned when they saw Ji Ning who was about to go out.

They always knew that Ji Ning was beautiful and had a natural beauty. She usually dressed in a simple way. Today, she wore a skirt and was suddenly unrecognizable.

She has a slim figure, a pure and clear face, and looks so beautiful.

"Are you going to date?" Zhang Ting asked.

Ji Ning's face suddenly turned red, and she looked at them and asked nervously: "Does it look good?"

She is quite confident in herself, but now she wants Cheng Yi to like her for the first time. The more she expects, the more helpless she is.

"Sisters, don't be suspicious of yourself. You are better than that Ji Qianqian!" After Zhang Ting said that, she quickly covered her mouth and lowered her tone, "I really think so in my heart!"

Ji Qianqian is popular because she participated in a singer program, so she must be careful in her words and actions.

"You and Ji Qianqian have the same surname, why do you feel a little similar?" Another roommate Li Wan'er suddenly said.

Since Ji Ning returned to Ji's house, she has never mentioned her life experience to others, so she has connected to the drivers who have been sent to stop by the street across the school gate.

This led everyone to think that the eldest lady of the Ji family was Ji Qianqian. The other party was beautiful and had rich and talented, and had a handsome and rich fiancé, which was the ceiling.

Ji Qianqian would not take the initiative to say it outside, including Ji's father and mother.

But why should she be the one who is not visible to the light?

"Well, we are a family, but we are not related by blood." Ji Ning took out a small bag and packed up his things.

"A family?" Zhang Ting and Li Wan'er were very surprised and widened their eyes, "You are also a wealthy daughter, are you? You are too low-key!"

But Ji Ning never talked about family affairs in front of them, and they thought there was something unspeakable.

"Not count?" Ji Ning smiled slightly, and said calmly, "I used to be an orphan, but I was only found back to the Ji family recently and changed my surname to Ji. We have changed our lives, and I am still in the adaptation stage."

Originally, her surname was Li, and she was named by the orphanage mother.

In the past, Ji Ning was hiding his life experience, sensitive and humble, and unwilling to face his own troubled self, and felt that no one could accept such an self.

But Cheng Yi knew all of Ji Ning's past, but she would still look at her with pity.

Perhaps she was loved sincerely without reservation. Ji Ning now feels fearless. She accepts her true self honestly and believes that she deserves to be loved.
