Married to My Ex-Fiancé's Cousin-Chapter 451 He Refuses to Go Home_1
Chapter 451: Chapter 451 He Refuses to Go Home_1
Ten days later, Ji Yunhuan was still staying at Bai Liyan’s home. Maybe it was due to the climate change after returning to City A, Ruirui fell ill, and Bai Liyan invited a doctor to see him at home. Ji Yunhuan had been taking care of him these days.
Now Ruirui was better, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
Bai Liyan was working outside but would come back at night. The weather in City A showed signs of warming up; it had always been a bit warmer here compared to other places. Ji Yunhuan stood on the terrace, feeling the breeze. She was very worried about Qi Cheng. Although she knew that since she had chosen to leave Qi Cheng, she should learn to let go of everything and stop thinking about him, she still wanted to confirm how he was doing.
Unfortunately, there had been no news, and even Bai Liyan did not know the situation well.
A black sedan stopped in the yard. Bai Liyan opened the car door and got out. Seeing her, he walked straight to her. "Why are you outside?"
"Ruirui is asleep. I came out to get some air." She had been stuck indoors lately, feeling a bit uncomfortable.
Following Bai Liyan’s instructions, the servant went inside.
His gaze fell on Ji Yunhuan. "I told my mom you came back. She wants to come and see Ruirui."
Ji Yunhuan was a bit surprised. "Auntie wants to come? But won’t it be tiring for her to run around?"
"That’s why I told her that you would go see her instead. Ruirui is better now, so flying shouldn’t be a problem, right?"
"No problem." Ji Yunhuan expressed her gratitude. "I’ve caused you a lot of trouble during this time."
"It’s nothing." He looked at her and said, "I’m going inside first. You stay a bit longer."
"Okay." Ji Yunhuan stood on the terrace for a while when her phone rang. It was an unfamiliar number. She answered it and heard her brother’s voice. "It’s me."
"Brother." Ji Yunhuan was very excited. Finally receiving her brother’s call, she didn’t even think before asking, "How is Qi Cheng?"
Although she knew that Qi Family members all hoped Qi Cheng could come back, the one Ji Yunhuan trusted most was her brother. So, she only told her brother about this matter, hoping he would handle everything.
"I’m at the airport. I just came back from Jiangling. Let’s meet up, and we will talk about Qi Cheng." Her brother sounded serious. "Where are you? I’ll send someone to pick you up."
"But I am at Liyan’s place now."
"I’ll send someone to pick you up."
"No need. I can come over myself."
"That’s fine, too."
They arranged to meet at Xindao Cafe.
When Ji Yunhuan arrived, her brother hadn’t arrived yet. She waited for a while and then saw her brother walk in, surrounded by bodyguards dressed in black.
He always attracted a lot of attention no matter where he went and didn’t care about others watching him. There weren’t many people in the cafe, and it was soon cleared out. This reminded her a lot of how Qi Cheng used to act.
Seeing Ji Yunhuan, he took off his gloves and walked straight over, sitting opposite her.
Her brother looked very serious, and Ji Yunhuan felt a faint sense of unease.
Her brother looked at her and bluntly asked, "Did you come alone?"
"Yes."
"I thought Liyan would come with you." Her brother looked at Ji Yunhuan. "I heard you are staying at his place."
"After coming back to City A, I stayed at his place because the child was sick and his home conditions were better." Besides, she didn’t want the Qi Family to keep bothering her.
Her brother said, "Are you with him now?"
Ji Yunhuan looked at him in surprise. "Why do you ask that, brother?"
"I just want to know how sincere you are towards Qi Cheng."
Her brother’s question made Ji Yunhuan chuckle bitterly. "Does that question matter now?"
"Qi Cheng loves you very much. I don’t want you to let him down." Her brother said seriously to Ji Yunhuan, "Qi Cheng is still in Jiangling. He didn’t come back with me."
Ji Yunhuan was very surprised. "Why?"
She looked startled and a bit disappointed.
Her brother said, "What? Do you really want him to come back? If he comes back, there will be no chance for you two because that would mean you’ve compromised. Grandpa will definitely do more to stop you two from being together. Actually, you should be happy that he loves you so much and is willing to do everything for you."
"Happy?" A faint sadness appeared in Ji Yunhuan’s eyes. She knew she could trust her brother and didn’t hide anything. "Then why did you leave Ye Suya? From what I know, you love her very much."
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have stayed with Ye Suya for so long, nor would he have done so many things that displeased the family for Ye Suya.
"So..." Her brother understood her meaning.
Ji Yunhuan said, "Being with Qi Cheng would only hurt him. Grandpa doesn’t want us to be together and has used all sorts of methods. Watching Qi Cheng suffer because of me, I really can’t continue being selfish. Even if he hates me, I just hope he can live well and that you can take good care of him. Maybe he’ll be a bit emotional at first, but he’ll get better."
Losing someone you love is not that scary.
Love is the deepest thing in this world, but it can also be the most negligible thing.
Her brother said, "Come with me to Jiangling tomorrow. Although I know Bai Liyan might be a better choice, I hope you can see Qi Cheng before making a decision."
Her brother’s words surprised Ji Yunhuan. "Is he in a bad state now?"
Otherwise, her brother wouldn’t have said this to her.
"We’ll talk after you see him." Her brother didn’t say much more and arranged for someone to take Ji Yunhuan back to Bai Liyan’s house.
Bai Liyan was helping her take care of the child, and a servant beside him said, "Young Master Rui is so cute."
"He is very cute." Bai Liyan smiled. Seeing Ji Yunhuan walk in, he asked, "Where did you go?"
"My brother came back, and I went to meet him." Ji Yunhuan saw the baby being very obedient in Bai Liyan’s arms and occasionally smiling at him. She said, "I’m going to Jiangling with my brother tomorrow."
"Is that so..." Bai Liyan said, "Did he say what it is about?"
Although he had a hunch it was about Qi Cheng, he couldn’t guess what it was without seeing it firsthand.
Ji Yunhuan said, "I don’t know either. I may need to trouble you to help take care of Ruirui."
There were many servants at the Bai Family Residence who could take good care of the little one. Mainly, flying back and forth with the baby would be very tiring for him.
Bai Liyan said, "Okay. He seems to like me quite a bit."
Ji Yunhuan looked at the child and smiled.
Early the next morning, her brother sent someone to pick her up. Without bringing much, Ji Yunhuan went straight to the airport. The tickets had already been arranged by her brother.
