Married to My Ex-Fiancé's Cousin-Chapter 514 This is Foolishness, Not Unrequited Love_1

Chapter 514: Chapter 514 This is Foolishness, Not Unrequited Love_1

In front of the second sister-in-law, Yangyang was like a little lively ghost. But beside Ji Yunhuan, he was like a puppet, even a smile was a luxury.

Fortunately, he’s a child. After lying on the bed, even if he was unwilling, Yangyang quickly fell asleep.

Ji Yunhuan, however, stayed awake. She stared at Yangyang’s quiet little face and couldn’t help but gently stroke his head, afraid to wake him, so her movements were very light.

Ji Yunhuan looked at him gently, until Qi Cheng couldn’t help but complain, "Are you still going to sleep tonight?"

Ji Yunhuan glared at him, "You scared him today."

"Even if I didn’t scare him, he would still be like this. When we were in C City, wasn’t he always like this?" Qi Cheng’s words brought back those memories for Ji Yunhuan.

Yes!

In C City, for so many days, Yangyang was always like this, sulky like a little adult.

Qi Cheng said, "Sleep, tomorrow send him to school. He’ll be happy playing with other kids."

Qi Cheng’s idea reassured Ji Yunhuan a bit. Yes, sending Yangyang to school, he would gradually become happier.

The light in the bedroom soon dimmed.

The eldest brother was unfortunately forced to sleep on the sofa today. He heard the second sister-in-law constantly turning over, seemingly having insomnia. He wanted to comfort her but thinking that she would scorn him if he spoke, he held back.

At midnight, in the quiet room, the second brother’s phone rang again. He reached out to take the phone. The call was from the person he sent to watch Lin Xiang, "Mr. Qi, Ms. Lin attempted suicide."

"...," the second brother felt a headache, "Did she die?"

"No, she has been sent to the hospital."

Hearing this, the second brother felt somewhat speechless. Why were there so many things happening today?

Although he didn’t want to be involved, unfortunately, the eldest brother and father were not here. Only he could handle it. He got up, dressed, and covered the second sister-in-law with a blanket.

He comforted, "I’m going to the hospital, sleep well, don’t think about unhappy things."

The second sister-in-law didn’t respond, clearly in a bad mood today.

Lin Xiang had slit her wrists. When the second brother arrived, she had already been rescued, but Lin Xiang didn’t wake up until morning. It also kept the second brother from leaving all night.

When Lin Xiang opened her eyes, the first ray of sunlight entered her vision. For someone who almost died, the sunlight at this moment felt like a new life.

The second brother was dressed in a gray suit. He sat there, seeing Lin Xiang wake up, and asked worriedly, "Are you okay?"

"Second brother," Lin Xiang’s voice was low. Thinking she was okay, her tears fell quickly, "I’m still alive."

Her words made the second brother silent for a while.

He stared at Lin Xiang and said, "Everyone’s life only happens once. You’re still young, why would you joke with your life?"

Lin Xiang, lying on the hospital bed, said in complete despair, "I’ve loved Qi Cheng since I was a child. All these years, I never changed my mind. No matter how excessive he was, I never thought of giving up on him. But this time, he really went too far."

Last night, after returning home, she thought for a long time. The more she thought, the more it hurt. After all, that was the man she loved the most!

To think he was so cruel as to sell her to a nightclub.

At this thought, Lin Xiang’s tears fell again.

The second brother looked at Lin Xiang and said, "If a man treats you so badly, and you still love him, even to the point of attempting suicide, that’s foolishness, not romantic affection."

Lin Xiang was taken aback by the second brother’s words. She said sadly, "But I really like him! Just thinking about him liking someone else makes my heart ache."

"That’s because the image he left in your memory is too beautiful. It’s like your favorite food from childhood—although the memory of the taste is wonderful, when you eat it now, does it taste the same as before?" The second brother’s voice was cold in the hospital room, but it carried a gentle warmth in Lin Xiang’s ears.

She looked at the second brother, "But... I really want to be with him."

"That’s because you’re still obsessed with him. Things you can’t get always linger in your mind, but that’s not love anymore. Love should make you feel happy. Does liking Qi Cheng make you feel happy?"

"..."

"You’re still young. There are many good men in this world, better than Qi Cheng, kinder than Qi Cheng. And most importantly, he’ll love you wholeheartedly."

"Just like you love the second sister-in-law?" Lin Xiang couldn’t help but think of the second brother’s love for his wife.

The second brother was stunned, thinking of the second sister-in-law. He didn’t know how she was doing now; she was probably still mad at him?

After a brief silence, the second brother nodded, "Yes."

Lin Xiang looked at the second brother and found him very gentle. He treated the second sister-in-law well, and importantly, he only had her in his life. At that moment, she suddenly realized, compared to Qi Cheng, the second brother was a truly good man.

Compared to him, Qi Cheng was really a jerk.

But she...

She had always thought Qi Cheng was the best man in the world.

She reached out her bandaged hand to wipe her tears, "Thank you, second brother."

"Why thank me?"

"Your words made me understand a lot." Lin Xiang said, "Maybe you’re right. My feelings for Qi Cheng weren’t love but obsession. I never got him, so I couldn’t let go. But now I understand, and I’ll try to move on."

The second brother smiled, "It’s good that you understand."

Lin Xiang said, "I believe one day, I’ll meet a man who truly loves me."

The second brother said, "Every girl has a destined lover. Heaven won’t mistreat anyone. If you haven’t met him, it’s just not the right time. But it’s good that you understand."

"Yes." Lin Xiang nodded heavily. After being scolded by the second brother, she really felt that her act of attempting suicide for Qi Cheng was extremely stupid. She looked at the second brother, "Just, is there really a man as good as you in this world?"

The second brother paused, "Am I good?"

"Of course, very good. The second sister-in-law is very happy."

"Thanks for the compliment." The second brother stood up and said, "Take good care of yourself in the hospital. I’ll go back now. There are still some things at home."

"I’m sorry, second brother. I’ve caused you so much trouble." Lin Xiang said guiltily.

Watching the second brother leave, she felt a sudden sense of relief in her heart.

This feeling was indescribable.

Having almost died, she realized she would no longer waste her energy on Qi Cheng.

However, he dared to sell her. This was unforgivable.

After the second brother left, Lin Xiang called Lin Zhenyu, asking her sister to come see her.
