Married to My Ex-Fiancé's Cousin-Chapter 496 The Reason for Treating Her Well_1

"I care!" Ji Yunhuan leaned against his chest. "I know you don’t really care if Yangyang is with us or with Second Sister-in-law. It’s because I care that you consider these things. But I don’t want my selfishness to make Yangyang see you as a bad person. You are father and son. I hope when Yangyang comes back, he can see this place as a warm home and see us as Mom and Dad, not like now, viewing us as enemies."

There was no point in calling Yangyang back in this way.

Qi Cheng looked at her. "Woman, don’t you know that being kind to others is being cruel to yourself?"

Ji Yunhuan was amused by his words. "Is Yangyang an ’other?’ He’s our first child."

Seeing Ji Yunhuan comforting herself like this, Qi Cheng didn’t say anything more. Since she didn’t mind, he didn’t bother to think about it.

Just let Yangyang stay with Second Sister-in-law for a few days.

Early the next morning, Ji Yunhuan got up very early and said, "I heard Sister Wen Nuan is back. I want to go see her. You stay home and look after Ruirui."

"Alright." Qi Cheng sat on the sofa, holding their son in his arms, looking very happy.

He didn’t want Ji Yunhuan to constantly think about Yangyang. Whether Yangyang was here or gone, he didn’t mind; he’d lived like this for years and was used to it.

Unlike him, when Ji Yunhuan reached Wen Nuan’s apartment downstairs, she was still thinking about Yangyang. She didn’t see Yangyang in the morning; every time she saw him, she felt sad. It was better to see him less. Since he wanted to stay with Second Sister-in-law, let them spend more time together.

When Ji Yunhuan got downstairs, she felt worried because she hadn’t seen Wen Nuan for a long time.

She pressed the doorbell and waited outside. Because of her, Wen Nuan’s three restaurants had closed down. Thinking of this made Ji Yunhuan deeply regretful, and she hadn’t been able to contact Wen Nuan since then.

Ji Yunhuan was really worried, so when she heard Wen Nuan was back, she came quickly.

She thought a servant would open the door, but it was Wen Nuan herself. Wen Nuan looked surprised to see Ji Yunhuan. "Come in."

Her long hair was loose and a bit messy. Wen Nuan brushed her hair back with her hand and went inside first. Ji Yunhuan followed her, closing the door behind her. Seeing Wen Nuan looking a bit disheveled, Ji Yunhuan was very concerned. "Sister, are you okay?"

Wen Nuan sat down on the sofa and said to Ji Yunhuan, "Have a seat."

As Ji Yunhuan sat down, she noticed the room was very dark because the curtains weren’t drawn. Wen Nuan looked at her. "Why did you suddenly come over without saying anything?"

"I came looking for you before, but you weren’t here. The servants told me you were traveling." Ji Yunhuan asked, "Are you feeling unwell?"

Wen Nuan glanced at Ji Yunhuan. "No, I’m fine."

"How is the restaurant business?" When the restaurant issue happened, Ji Yunhuan was in Jiangling and didn’t know the situation here. Later, she asked Bai Liyan to help take a look, but Bai Liyan didn’t seem to be much help.

Hearing Ji Yunhuan’s question, Wen Nuan couldn’t help but smile. "It’s been so long. Why are you still bringing this up?"

Ji Yunhuan felt very guilty. "I wasn’t here then. I just want to know how you’re doing now." freeωebnovēl.c૦m

"If it closed, it closed. It’s nothing major. It’s all in the past." But this didn’t hide her disheveled appearance; Ji Yunhuan asked with concern, "Do you have something on your mind recently?"

"No."

"Sister Wen Nuan, we’ve known each other for so long. Please don’t be distant with me." Ji Yunhuan could tell if she had something on her mind.

Wen Nuan couldn’t help but laugh at her serious tone. "Do you want me to have something on my mind?"

"Of course not."

Wen Nuan sighed and told Ji Yunhuan the truth. "It’s because Brother Zhou is in the hospital."

"What illness does he have?" Ji Yunhuan was very worried.

After a moment of silence, Wen Nuan suddenly talked about the past. "Yunhuan, do you know why I kept caring for you even when you had nothing?"

Ji Yunhuan shook her head. She had always been very grateful to Wen Nuan for extending a helping hand when she was most helpless. She thought it was just because Wen Nuan was kind and didn’t consider any other reasons.

Wen Nuan said, "It’s because you and I share something in common. So seeing you in trouble, I couldn’t help but care for you."

"I don’t understand." Ji Yunhuan looked at Wen Nuan in confusion, unable to think of what they shared that made Wen Nuan treat her so well.

Wen Nuan looked at Ji Yunhuan and from her eyes, it was clear she’d been under a lot of pressure recently. Ji Yunhuan initially thought it was about the restaurant, but now it seemed it wasn’t.

Wen Nuan told her, "Brother Zhou is hospitalized with heart disease. The men in his family all have hereditary heart disease. None of them live past thirty."

"But he’s already in his thirties, isn’t he?"

"Yes!" Wen Nuan said. "Before he turned thirty, I was always living in fear. When nothing happened to him, I thought it was a blessing and he might be an exception. But now, he is hospitalized too."

Although their financial situation wasn’t very wealthy, their relationship was good. As Ji Yunhuan listened, she finally understood why Wen Nuan treated her differently.

Because Chenchen also had heart disease, Wen Nuan felt a special connection.

Ji Yunhuan asked, "How is Brother Zhou now? What do the doctors say?"

Wen Nuan said, "The hospital said the hope for a cure is very slim."

Ji Yunhuan tried to comfort her. "But there are many heart disease cures out there."

"But no one in his family has ever been cured." Wen Nuan didn’t dare to have too much hope because, just like Chenchen, there were too many failed cases in front of her.

Ji Yunhuan said, "Sister, don’t be so pessimistic. It won’t be like that. Brother Zhou is such a good person; he’ll be fine. Don’t lose heart."

"Thank you for comforting me." Wen Nuan smiled faintly.

Then, the room fell into silence.

Seeing her, it seemed she had been sitting there for a long time.

After a moment of silence, Ji Yunhuan asked, "What are you planning to do? Will Brother Zhou undergo surgery?"

"Brother Zhou’s condition is not very good now. If it were possible, I would naturally hope he could have surgery. But...the hospital’s experts said the success rate isn’t high. If we could get Bai Liyan, the chances of success would be higher because Bai Liyan has had many successful surgeries before."

Compared to regular heart surgeries, Bai Liyan had more experience with difficult cases.

So, there were hardly any better experts in the country.

But...he had already retired, and everyone thought it was a pity.

Ji Yunhuan was very surprised that Wen Nuan would make such a request. "He doesn’t do that anymore."
