Chapter 498: Chapter 498: Even Jealous of His Own Son_1
Ji Yunhuan found it a bit funny seeing Lin Xiang trying so hard to please Qi Cheng, who was giving her no reaction with a cold face.
"Are you going or what? You stay at home with the child every day. Don’t you feel bored? At this time, who knows where Ji Yunhuan has gone to enjoy herself. She left the child with you alone."
Qi Cheng glanced at the tickets in Lin Xiang’s hand. He realized he had indeed been bored recently, constantly overwhelmed by Yangyang’s issues.
Seeing his gaze drawn to the movie tickets, Lin Xiang smiled slightly, "Do you want to go?"
"Sure." Qi Cheng gave an unexpected answer. Ji Yunhuan, who was wearing high heels, almost twisted her ankle. Damn, did this man think she didn’t exist? He actually wanted to go on a date with Lin Xiang?
"Really! Brother Qi Cheng, you’re so kind." Lin Xiang was overjoyed to hear that Qi Cheng wanted to go.
Ji Yunhuan initially wanted to walk over but stopped in place, watching the two for a while longer to see what exactly Qi Cheng was planning.
"Let me see the tickets," Qi Cheng instructed. The servant quickly came over to take the tickets from Lin Xiang, and she handed them over eagerly. Qi Cheng glanced at the movie tickets, reading the title aloud, "Intimate Lovers."
Lin Xiang began eagerly introducing the movie to him, "Actually, my bestie recommended it to me. He said it’s really good and perfect for couples!"
Although the name made him cringe a bit, it was said to be a good movie for fostering a relationship, so she had specially chosen it.
Qi Cheng nodded thoughtfully, "Sounds good. You put in so much effort picking it out. It shouldn’t go to waste."
Lin Xiang was delighted to hear his praise. She giggled, her smile blossoming like a flower.
Qi Cheng responded as if he had received a treasure, "So, Yunhuan and I will make good use of these tickets. Thank you."
It was just right. He hadn’t had a proper date with Yunhuan for a long time. Every day was filled with illnesses and child-related issues. He could take this chance to reconnect with Ji Yunhuan.
Lin Xiang was taken aback. She initially thought she had misheard but saw the earnest look in Qi Cheng’s eyes, so she couldn’t help but confirm, "You want to go with Ji Yunhuan?"
Qi Cheng said, "Yeah, it’s been a long time since we went to the movies."
Ji Yunhuan stood aside, watching Qi Cheng’s justifiable expression. She couldn’t help but pity Lin Xiang for a moment—Qi Cheng was so devious. Not only did he refuse to go with Lin Xiang, but he also tricked her.
Lin Xiang’s eyes reddened with anger, "I bought the tickets. How can you go with Ji Yunhuan?"
Qi Cheng began to analyze the situation for her, "You’re right, you bought the tickets. But if I don’t go with you, you’d be watching two tickets alone. That would be a waste. You agree, right?"
Qi Cheng didn’t feel his actions were excessive at all. This was all Lin Xiang’s own doing, not his fault.
Lin Xiang stood up angrily, "Brother Qi Cheng, you are too much."
She was so angry that she left the tickets behind and stormed out. As she passed by Ji Yunhuan, she fiercely glared at her, as if she wanted to buy a bottle of acid and splash it on Ji Yunhuan’s face.
Bearing her intense hatred, Ji Yunhuan didn’t mind. She walked over to Qi Cheng and looked at the tickets he had just taken, "Qi Cheng."
"Back already?" He sized her up.
Ji Yunhuan sat next to him, "Don’t you think you’re a bit too devious?"
"Not at all," Qi Cheng replied, "Look, I just got these two tickets for you. Do you like them?"
"Ahem..." Ji Yunhuan didn’t expect him to be so good at taking gifts from others and giving them away. "These tickets are from Lin Xiang. Do you really want to go?"
"Why not? Do you think it’s too cruel to Lin Xiang?" Qi Cheng looked at Ji Yunhuan.
That was exactly what Ji Yunhuan thought, "If I were her, I’d be furious."
"Doesn’t she like me treating her this way? She always appears in front of me to disgust me. From now on, whenever she does, I’ll deal with her like this." Qi Cheng said, "If someone doesn’t respect themselves, others have no reason to respect them. Don’t you think so?"
"Right, right, you’re absolutely correct!" Ji Yunhuan laughed. After all, it was Lin Xiang who was getting set up, not her. Ji Yunhuan wasn’t so kind as to have sympathy for someone who constantly schemed against her.
Qi Cheng, hearing Ji Yunhuan’s words, laughed, "Why did you come back so late today?"
"I went to see Warmth Restaurant, and I got delayed on the way back." Ji Yunhuan observed the sleeping Ruirui, "His eyes are red. He cried?"
"How could he not cry? You were gone for so long. It took me forever to coax him to sleep." Thankfully, he was his son. Qi Cheng had patience. Otherwise, he would have wanted to hit him.
Ji Yunhuan knew how hard it was for him, "Thank you."
Ji Yunhuan lowered her head, gently kissing Ruirui’s face. Satisfied, she looked up to find Qi Cheng unhappy, "If you love kissing your son so much, you can kiss him all you want."
He directly put Ruirui in her arms.
Ji Yunhuan rolled her eyes at him, "Are you even jealous of your son?"
She had merely kissed her son, and he took it seriously.
Qi Cheng said, "I’m not happy when you kiss anyone."
Ji Yunhuan laughed.
Qi Cheng looked at her, "How’s Warmth Restaurant doing?"
Ji Yunhuan had mentioned the closure of Warmth Restaurant to Qi Cheng before, so he didn’t oppose her visiting it. Although they weren’t responsible, it was indirectly because of them that the Qi Family targeted Warmth Restaurant.
Ji Yunhuan thought of today’s events and her smile faded, "Zhou Muqing is sick. He’s in the hospital. It’s heart disease and he needs surgery."
"..."
"Warmth said she hopes Bai Liyan can perform the surgery. But you know, Bai Liyan has retired from this field."
"So, you saw Bai Liyan before coming back?" Ji Yunhuan had to admire Qi Cheng’s sharpness. When it came to jealousy, he had an unusually keen instinct.
She regretted he didn’t use this trait for anything else.
Ji Yunhuan explained, "I just went to ask if he could consider it. After all, he was a genius, right? It was because of Chenchen’s issue that he left the hospital for so long. Seeing other patients in such need of him, I feel it’s a pity."
One shouldn’t negate a person because of one mistake.
No one in this world should be negated for one mistake!
"You still feel guilty," Qi Cheng said sullenly, "If you had a clear conscience, you wouldn’t be explaining without me asking."
"I was just afraid you’d misunderstand."
"Hypocrite!"
"..."
