Someone suddenly leaned in and asked her with a gossiping tone, "Xiangting, she has the same last name as you, also a Ji. It seems she knows your younger uncle Teacher Ji too, someone saw them talking at the school gate the other day."
Many knew Ji Anning was part of the Ji Family, but no one knew her status within the family.
Outside, Ji Ruoqian and Ji Xiangting treated her as a stranger, terrified that others might discover their relationship.
It was only when she went out with Yang Yufang that Yang Yufang would proudly introduce her as her daughter-in-law.
And those she met just listened and paid it no mind, treating it as young love, inconsequential.
Ji Xiangting looked in Ji Anning's direction for quite a while before she withdrew her gaze, turning to the girl beside her who had asked, "Yeah, she's our family's maid, sold to our house when she was little."
After saying this, she curved her lips, revealing a hint of scorn.
