Chapter 258: Chapter 253: Do You Like Ji Tian?

In the evening, everyone returned to the hotel to sleep.

Jian Chuyi was on the phone with her mother, the endearing act of a spoiled young daughter, which made Gong Dongxi envious for a mont.

She looked at her own motionless phone, a trace of shallow disappointnt surfacing in her eyes. She was never cared for by her family anyway, her parents only had high hopes for her brother.

She simply turned off her phone and buried herself under the covers to sleep.

Ji Tian also looked at her phone, and after much hesitation, she decided to call Qiao Luhua—it was her mother who had asked her to co, after all.

In the very last second before the call went to voicemail, Qiao Luhua answered, “Hello? Good baby.”

“Mom, where are you?”

“I’m in Country F. When your recording is over, Mom will co to pick you up and take you sowhere.”

Ji Tian had no reason to doubt, and readily agreed, “Mmm, good. I haven’t seen you for a long ti anyhow.”

There was a silence on the other end.

Then she laughed and said, “Good baby, Mommy will always love you.”

Ji Tian’s lips curled slightly, “ too.”

After hanging up the phone, Ji Tian lay on the bed when her phone chid, receiving an email.

[Miss Ji Tian, I’m sorry to reach out to you in this way, but I have another crate of stones tomorrow that needs your help. Let’s et in the hotel at ten in the morning, no show, no go——Qi Si.]

Ji Tian frowned slightly, puzzled about how Qi Si knew her contact information and na, but then it dawned on her—she was currently filming a show, so a quick search online would reveal her na. As for the contact information… surely the show’s crew wouldn’t leak her private information, so Qi Si must have found it out himself. It seed that Qi Si had quite a significant clout in Country F.

She drifted off into a confused sleep, and by eight o’clock the next morning, they were inford that they were being forcibly evicted from their rooms because a big boss had booked the entire hotel for a team-building event with his staff. In apology, the hotel refunded them 50 euros.

So they had to find new accommodations all over again.

As the group trekked with their luggage in tow, Hang ngting rubbed her sore calves, “Isn’t Ji Tian rich? Why doesn’t she just book a few rooms next door for us? Why go through all this trouble?”

Tang Yu glanced at her and said, “Is it your money? You said it yourself yesterday that any extra money wouldn’t be pooled, for fear that others would take advantage of you. Even though you co from the first noble family of Central Continent, how can you be so petty?”

Hang ngting didn’t dare retort Tang Yu, being too foolish to realize that she couldn’t provoke the Tang Family. At most, the Hang Family could back her up against a lesser family, but the Tang Family was on par with the Hang Family, and she didn’t dare offend them, so she held her tongue.

Thus, the group found a shabby inn at the corner of a secluded street that only cost ten euros to stay.

Ji Tian booked four rooms, two people to a room. Jian Chuyi clung tightly to Ji Tian, declaring that she would only sleep with Ji Tian.

Gong Dongxi: “…”

Only her world of solitary hurt was achieved, with Feng Xu before and Hang ngting after—her life was tough, but she had no choice but to pinch her nose and room with them.

The hostel was run by an elderly couple, and the area was nearly up for demolition, which was why the price was so cheap. Apart from the poor environnt, the room was very clean. The old lady also invited them to have breakfast with them.

Ji Tian even paid them for breakfast, but in the end, the old woman felt a little embarrassed, so she let them use the kitchen, telling them they could cook for themselves to save money.

Jian Chuyi imdiately volunteered, saying that she could make desserts but was not allowed to eat too much of them at ho, so her skills were buried. Thankfully, this opportunity allowed her to show off her talents.

Tang Yu stated that he could wash dishes, but cooking was out of the question.

Qin Jiangsheng then turned to Ji Tian, smiling gently, “What would you like to eat? I’ll make it for you.”

Ji Tian’s mouth watered at the thought. Last ti, the walnut crisp that Qin Jiangsheng made for her was pretty tasty, so she imdiately requested shrimp dumplings.

He nodded, “Then let’s go buy the ingredients.”

Feng Xu imdiately claid that he was adept at picking out the best vegetables and that entrusting the task to him would be a sure bet.

Although Li ng also wanted to go, she thought that the three of them were enough, and there wouldn’t be much left for her to do, so with a look of regret, she bid them farewell.

Her eyes lingered on Ji Tian for too long, which once again ignited Hang ngting’s jealousy. She grabbed Li ng and confronted him, “Do you like Ji Tian or not!”

Li ng was initially startled, then guiltily shifted his gaze away, “That’s not true… Don’t overthink it.”

Hang ngting knew Li ng too well; his obvious lie ant he indeed liked Ji Tian!

So what if she was exceptionally talented and sowhat pretty? Why should she garner such attention?

Even Feng Xu, that dog, had shifted his approach from initial antagonism to fawning over Ji Tian.

Her eyes brimd with resentnt.

Li ng held Hang ngting back, “Don’t hurt her, I really don’t have any feelings for her.”

His words seed ironically revealing, like claiming there’s no silver buried here.

This statent instantly set Hang ngting’s anger ablaze.

She slapped him across the face with a backhand, “Even if you’re a dog, you can only be my dog, licking at my feet. You must be loyal to , you must submit, or else I’ll ruin you, and let your sickly mother die.”

After venting her rage, she stord up the stairs with heavy steps.

Li ng’s smile never wavered. He lowered his gaze to his own hands; he was born for esports, and it was only in the competition arena that he felt truly himself. He wouldn’t have to endure Hang ngting’s repulsive possessiveness, nor be commanded to stay by her side like a dog attending to all her whims. His mother wouldn’t be in the hospital with a heart condition exacerbated by her anger, which hadn’t improved at all.

After a mont, he weakly gripped his hand, maintaining a composed face as if untouched by any humiliation.

That is until Gong Dongxi spoke up.

Gong Dongxi happened to witness the scene, a place hidden from the caras, and she felt embarrassed, “I… I won’t tell anyone.”

Li ng turned his head, and Gong Dongxi stepped back before he gave a faint, desolate smile, “Do you think I’m pathetic too?”

Gong Dongxi hesitated, although she sowhat agreed, there definitely were class differences between the formidable families and ordinary people.

“Listen, don’t be like this. If you truly dislike her, just fight back. We’ll support you,” she said.

He shook his head gently, “How can I fight back? I’m not even allowed the right to like soone…”

Gong Dongxi’s eyes widened, “You, you, you really like Ji Tian?”

Li ng gazed at her with a pair of lancholic eyes, remaining silent, but his tacit admission revealed everything…

For the first ti, she didn’t envy Ji Tian’s beauty. This was just trouble in the guise of admirers.

She laughed dryly, “Don’t worry, I’ll keep your secret…”

Then she left.

Li ng looked towards the upstairs then turned and walked to the hostel’s living room.

Hang ngting didn’t enter her room but instead stood at the corner, clenching her fists tightly.

Ji Tian!

Before, Li ng had been obedient; he would kneel if she demanded it.

What if a well-trained dog, suddenly decided to abandon her for a new owner?

Because she loved dogs, she wouldn’t harm them, but she could kill that person.
