Chapter 997

When she was dressed as a man, she looked heroic and devilish. She really looked like a perfect young man who had walked out of A TWO-DIMENSIONAL MANGA!

But now… …

She changed into a dress. Her hair had just been washed. It was soft and stuck to her face. Her makeup had also been removed, revealing her delicate and gentle features.

She was like an Elf in the dark, beautiful yet cute.

Xia Jinqi saw that she was staring straight at her and coughed lightly in embarrassment. “Che Er, are you asleep? ”

Bai Ran came back to her senses and nodded with a smile. “I slept soundly. In my dreams, I called out Xiao Puff’s name! ”

Xia Jinqi also smiled and took the initiative to invite her. “Do you want to chat for a while? ”

“Sure! ” Bai Ran wouldn’t refuse. Since she wasn’t sleepy at the moment, she was also very curious about Xia Jinqi’s story.

For example, why did she disguise herself as a man?

For example, what was the huge contrast between her unruly and unruly self at the Lido hotel and her gentle and kind-hearted self now?

Just like that, the two of them took advantage of the time when the children were fast asleep to get together and chat.

The location was chosen to be on the balcony of Xia Jinqi’s room.

The two of them secretly looted the children’s snacks, then went downstairs to the fridge to get fruit juice drinks. They directly gathered together to have a party.

“So, in order to better manage the casino, you disguised yourself as a man? ” Bai Ran roughly listened to Xia Jinqi’s story, and the doubts in her heart began to slowly unravel.

“Yes. ” Xia Jinqi nodded, and a little embarrassed, she used her index finger to roll up the small bangs on her forehead. “Do you think it’s very strange? ”

“How is it weird? I actually think you’re quite handsome! ” Bai Ran praised her without holding back She couldn’t help but think of the chairman at the banquet who had shocked everyone with just a few words. She still couldn’t believe it “Is that really you? I really couldn’t tell at that time that you were pretending to be a man. I just thought that some young man looked too delicate and pretty! ”

When she said these words, Bai ran’s expression was not exaggerated at all. It was as if everything was going as it should be. It didn’t make people feel disgusted at all.

Instead, it made Xia Jinqi feel very comfortable.

After a few words, she completely opened her heart and started talking about serious matters.

“Then, Zhuo Ning, do you really have to capture her? ” Xia Jinqi asked seriously.

“Yes! ” Bai Ran answered very quickly. She did not even need to think.

Xia Jinqi could hear the seriousness in her words, so she did not try to dissuade her. Instead, she thought of their grandfather and could not help but notice the similarity between the two of them.

“Come to think of it, the two of us are a little similar. Actually, Ji Heng is also my grandfather. Are these two strange families really letting their granddaughter inherit the Family Business? ”

Bai Ran was stunned. “No wonder your surname is Xia and not JI. ”

“Yes, logically speaking, my cousin Ji Yunjing should be the one to inherit the family business, but grandfather always wants to leave everything to me. ” Xia Jinqi smiled. She really didn’t understand grandfather JI.

“this… perhaps he wants to make up for something. ” Bai Ran sighed softly. She also thought of her past. “I’m actually my father’s illegitimate daughter, but after he died, he left the family and everything to me. ”

When she heard the words ‘illegitimate daughter’ , a string in Xia Jinqi’s mind jumped. She looked at Bai ran in surprise. “I… AM also my father’s illegitimate daughter… ”

At that time, Bai ran was drinking a drink. When she heard Xia Jinqi’s sudden words, she almost choked. “What a coincidence! ”
