Chapter 62: A Kiss on the Back of the Hand
After saying this, Ji Qian wanted to push Ji Ning’s head away. However, her hand hesitated for a moment in the mid-air. Recalling what she had seen others do before, she stiffly reached out and patted her little sister. Her little sister was someone who had almost no presence in the past.
Ji Ning was really skinny. Her body always looked very thin, but now that Ji Qian touched her, she realized that Ji Ning was all skin and bones.
This kind of contact was a novel experience for the two sisters. Although their age gap was not that big, they were not born from the same mother. They had not interacted with each other since they were young. Thus, even though they were sisters, they were like strangers to each other. They usually would not even greet each other when they bumped into each other at home.
It was only when they hugged each other that they realized what it meant to be connected by blood. Although Ji Qian said that she disliked it, she did not reject Ji Ning’s hug. It was the first time that the impatient and arrogant young miss had such patience. She patted Ji Ning’s thin and small back.
The others watched them hug each other in silence and did not step forward to disturb them.
Seeing this scene, Ji Zhou’s heart was once again filled with a sense of complicated restlessness. He clenched and loosened his fists repeatedly. In the end, he could not help but curse inwardly. He turned around and went downstairs to pour a cup of warm and lightly salted water.
Ji Zhou had always been a noble young master who was constantly bored and wore a gloomy expression. He shoved the cup of water to Ji Ning’s mouth. He said, "Drink some water to replenish some salt in your body before you continue crying. Your voice is so hoarse and unpleasant to hear."
Ji Ning, who has suddenly shoved a cup of water into her mouth, cried so hard that her throat felt uncomfortable. She subconsciously opened her mouth and took a big gulp.
