Married to My Ex-Fiancé's Cousin-Chapter 516: The Transformation of the Second Sister-in-Law_1

Chapter 516: Chapter 516: The Transformation of the Second Sister-in-Law_1

So, unless absolutely necessary, he did not want to give up hope.

After hearing what he said, the second sister-in-law looked somewhat helpless. "I have given up hope long ago. If we were truly meant to have a child, it would have happened already. There’s no way we would have waited until now."

Over these years, they had tried both traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine, but all they got was disappointment time and again.

"Shi Xuan." The second brother extended a hand and pulled her into his arms. "We didn’t have it before, but we certainly will in the future."

"I don’t want to hold on to pointless hopes, only for them to come crashing down."

She had enough!

Without expectations, there would be no disappointments.

The second brother said: "You weren’t like this before. Back then, didn’t you always believe that we could still have children? Why are you thinking so much now? Shi Xuan, I’ll admit it. I am very selfish. Apart from the child between you and me, I don’t want anyone else’s. Even with Yangyang, deep down, he is still Qi Cheng’s child to me. Though he is adorable, he isn’t my biological son. So, I’m sorry..."

The second sister-in-law looked at the second brother. "But it’s a fact that I can’t conceive."

"Who said you can’t conceive? Did the doctor say that? You’re just not easily pregnant, but it doesn’t mean you can never have children, does it?"

"But we have been married for so many years. We’ve waited so long, and I can’t wait any longer. After all, I don’t have many years left to wait." Once a woman passes thirty, she ages day by day. If not for this, she would not have stubbornly kept Yangyang by her side.

After all, as a woman without children, she always felt her life was incomplete. It didn’t matter how successful she appeared outside or how many people envied her. Children were always her deepest regret.

When she was younger, she could always deceive others and herself by saying she wasn’t in a hurry. But she didn’t have many years left to wait.

In these years, due to Yangyang’s presence, she felt her life had become much more complete than before. She even fantasized about living happily ever after with Yangyang and her second brother as a family of three.

But then Ji Yunhuan came back, and everything changed. How could she not be resentful?

"It’s okay. No matter what, I’m still by your side, right?" The second brother set up the bowl. "Let’s eat. After eating, I’ll take you to see the Chinese medicine doctor I know."

-

In the afternoon, when Ji Yunhuan brought Yangyang home, the second sister-in-law had just finished brewing medicine in the kitchen.

She carried the medicine out. As soon as Yangyang saw her, he excitedly shouted, "Mom!"

Ji Yunhuan was startled. Every time she saw Yangyang happily calling the second sister-in-law that way, it felt like a needle was piercing her heart.

The second sister-in-law looked at Yangyang and gave a gentle smile. "Little one, you’re back from school."

Seeing Yangyang moving closer to the second sister-in-law, Ji Yunhuan grabbed his hand. "Honey, let’s go back to the room first. Didn’t you say you wanted to see your little brother?" ƒrēenovelkiss.com

"I want mom."

Yangyang struggled to get closer to the second sister-in-law. He almost used all his strength to resist. Ji Yunhuan worried that if she let go, he would fall to the ground. She reached out, attempting to carry him away. Instead, Yangyang kicked her forcefully. "Let go of me... let go of me!"

Ji Yunhuan held onto him, determined not to give him another chance to interact with the second sister-in-law.

She had just had a confrontation with the second sister-in-law yesterday. With Yangyang taken from Qi Cheng, letting Yangyang seek out the second sister-in-law would be like a slap in the face.

Yangyang became angry and bit Ji Yunhuan’s fingers ferociously, causing sharp pain. But the deepest pain was in Ji Yunhuan’s heart.

"Yunhuan." The second sister-in-law’s voice came from the side. Ji Yunhuan paused. The second sister-in-law, having just brewed the medicine, placed it on the table and walked over, saying to Yangyang, "Baby, let go. How can you bite people?"

Hearing the second sister-in-law’s words, Yangyang obediently loosened his grip. He looked at the second sister-in-law, full of grievance. "They all wouldn’t let me come to you. I miss you. They’re all bad people, mom..."

Yangyang nestled into the second sister-in-law’s arms, and she gently hugged him. "Isn’t mom right here?"

Although the second sister-in-law helped her out, Ji Yunhuan did not feel grateful. She spoke coldly. "What are you doing, second sister-in-law? I thought yesterday made it clear. Yangyang has nothing to do with you anymore."

Yangyang glared at Ji Yunhuan, obviously disliking her.

The second sister-in-law gently turned Yangyang’s face back, scrutinizing him while saying to Ji Yunhuan, "I’m just concerned about Yangyang."

After verifying Yangyang was fine, the second sister-in-law glanced at Ji Yunhuan, noticing she still wore a cold expression, likely angry about yesterday’s events.

The second sister-in-law said: "Yunhuan, we are all family. Even if Yangyang isn’t my child anymore, there’s no harm in me caring for him a little, right?"

"It matters to me! You know Yangyang can’t be without you, so what’s the point of being nice to him on purpose?" Ji Yunhuan was clearly not intending to show the second sister-in-law any courtesy. She had given her too much face before. In the end, it just made her appear even more foolish.

The second sister-in-law stood up and, looking down, gazed at Yangyang. "I thought about it all night and figured it out. Indeed, I had the wrong attitude before. Yangyang has been with me for so long, so naturally, there would be some selfishness. But now, I understand and should be considerate of your feelings as a mother."

"..."

The second sister-in-law continued, "Can we still coexist peacefully? Even if you hate me, do it for Yangyang’s sake. I promise to teach him well, to make him understand it’s you and Qi Cheng who are his parents. After spending so much time with Yangyang, you should know he only listens to me."

"Why would you be so kind?" Ji Yunhuan scoffed with disbelief.

"Yunhuan, I have been good to you. Besides, what I’m doing now is also for Yangyang. Having been his mother for years, seeing him this way hurts me too. You should give us a chance. I promise never to do anything foolish again in the future." The second sister-in-law’s attitude was extremely sincere, something Ji Yunhuan hadn’t expected. She thought that after yesterday’s incident, the second sister-in-law would hate her to death.

That was actually the last thing Ji Yunhuan wanted, but... she truly couldn’t bear it yesterday.

She had never been a patient person. When bullied to the point of no return, she wanted to fight back.

Looking at the second sister-in-law, Ji Yunhuan said in disbelief, "I don’t believe you’re such an easygoing person. I embarrassed you like that yesterday, and today you’re willing to apologize?"

How could someone who was so enraged they skipped breakfast suddenly come to their senses now?

This change in attitude was too bizarre!
