Chapter 222

Ji Chengzhi shook his head, "No, just some anti-allergy medication. His obsession with cleanliness has become rather pathological, he needs treatment!"

So that was it!

Upon understanding, Ye Ning accepted the medicine bottle he handed to her from the drawer gladly.

As she took it and was about to leave, the young dean behind her added another sentence, "By the way, I heard yesterday that guy spanked his niece for a child. His sister is making a scene right now. That child, could it be yours?"

Ye Ning was startled upon hearing this! noveldrama

How could he know these things? Could it be that his relationship with that man was far from ordinary?

Ye Ning didn’t know that the man before her was one of the few friends Ou Mucen played with back in the day. Back then, she was too distant from that man. He was like the sun high above, while she was like the humble dust on the ground.

When she heard the dean suddenly bring this up, she was stunned for a good while before she reacted, "You’re the third young master’s friend?"

Ji Chengzhi nodded, "Yes, we’ve been playing together since we were kids."

So it was true!

Finally understanding, Ye Ning hesitated for a moment before admitting, "Yes, I went out yesterday, and then my child, not knowing any better, phoned him to come over, which led to this incident."

Phoned him to come over?

Ji Chengzhi, leaning on his own desk, found this statement as unbelievable as a fanciful tale, "Are you saying that your child called Mucen, and then he just came over?"

Ye Ning nodded, "My child said so, indeed."

Ji Chengzhi was dumbfounded!

This was too miraculous. Who on earth was that child? And he was so obedient?

Ji Chengzhi stared at this woman, and for the first time, he began to look her over carefully...

Frankly speaking, she really wasn’t a woman of striking appearance, at most she could be considered pretty and charming. Compared with the high-profile ladies and film stars in their circles, she really wasn’t on the same level.

But there was something very special about this woman, and that was her elegance, a kind of subtlety completely out of place in this bustling world, like a chrysanthemum or orchid. It was as if a stream had suddenly appeared among the splendid flowers, attracting attention with its mere presence.

But what of it? No matter how attractive she may be, she was already a mother to a child.

Ji Chengzhi’s narrow eyes slightly squinted, "Miss An, I don’t know what your relationship is with Mucen, but I advise you, if you want your child to be safe, it’s best to keep a distance from him."

Ye Ning was taken aback, "Dean, what do you mean by that?"

Ji Chengzhi gave a cold smile, "Don’t you understand, Miss An? Mucen’s world is far more complicated and dangerous than you imagine. Don’t think that just because he spanked his niece for your child yesterday, you can gloat. I’m telling you, neither the Bai family nor the Ou family will let you and your son off the hook!"

Ye Ning’s complexion changed!

What was he saying? What did he mean by not gloating over the fact that he had helped her child by spanking his niece? Was he warning her or humiliating her?

Ye Ning’s eyes began to turn cold, "Dean Ji, are you perhaps overthinking things?"

"What do you mean?"

"Isn’t that the case? I’m just a new assistant at the Ou company. Why would Dean Ji think so highly of me? To think I could climb up the ladder as high as the President of Ou? Aren’t you giving me too much credit?"

"I—"

Ji Chengzhi was suddenly rendered speechless by her
