Married to My Ex-Fiancé's Cousin-Chapter 667: Interrupted Atmosphere (8 more)_1
All the things that belonged to Qi Cheng, as long as Qi Cheng liked them, he could generously give them away. But with Ji Yunhuan, he only wanted Ji Yunhuan...
Yet, Qi Cheng didn’t want to give her to him!
Clearly, Qi Cheng didn’t care about this woman anymore. But he still wouldn’t let her go!
Some things, to an indifferent person, are mere discarded shoes. To others, they are unattainable no matter how much they beg.
The room’s door was pushed open, and the assistant’s voice came through, "Dr. Bai, are you alright? How did you get yourself sick?"
Bai Liyan had always taken care of his health, so he almost never let himself get sick.
Bai Liyan sat up and calmly said, "It’s nothing, just a small illness."
"You’re running a fever. How can it be a small illness?" The assistant brought him some medicine.
Bai Liyan sat on the sickbed and silently watched as the assistant handed him the pills and water...
A few days later, Ji Yunhuan came home from work and found Qi Cheng at the house. When she went to work, she left Ruirui and Yangyang at home, with servants to take care of them.
Seeing Qi Cheng sitting on the sofa, she didn’t speak to him. Since the children were there, him coming to see them was expected. She didn’t have the ability to be as domineering as Qi Cheng, not even letting him see the children.
Ruirui and Yangyang weren’t in the living room. Ji Yunhuan guessed they were upstairs. She was about to go upstairs when she heard Qi Cheng speak, "I have something to show you."
Ji Yunhuan stopped in her tracks and walked over to him. "What is it?"
Qi Cheng took some photos out of a file folder beside him. "Look."
Ji Yunhuan sat down. The photos were of Bai Liyan and Zhou Yixiu together.
Just like before, seeing Zhou Yixiu made her want to kill him.
She looked at Qi Cheng, puzzled, and asked, "Why are you showing me these?"
Qi Cheng said, "These photos were sent a couple of days ago. Bai Liyan recently went on a business trip with Zhou Yixiu."
Ji Yunhuan looked at him curiously, "So?"
"I told you before, Bai Liyan and Zhou Yixiu are together. But you didn’t believe me, thinking I wrongly accused him. I’m just showing you the truth. At Huai Xi Villa, everything Bai Liyan did for you was just a ruse he and Zhou Yixiu set up to gain your trust." Qi Cheng spoke earnestly.
He knew that part of the reason things turned out this way between him and Ji Yunhuan was because of Bai Liyan. If he wanted Ji Yunhuan to forgive him, he needed her to understand why he had been so angry back then.
"So?" Ji Yunhuan said, "Showing me this, what do you expect me to do? Hate Bai Liyan?"
Qi Cheng looked at her intently. "Don’t you think you should hate him? Now that you know he wasn’t as good to you as you thought, that everything he did was just a means to get you."
"..." Ji Yunhuan looked at the photos, thinking of Bai Liyan. She hadn’t been without suspicion...but...
Hearing Qi Cheng speak like this, she indeed felt a bit disappointed.
She put the photos down without saying anything.
Qi Cheng looked at her and said, "So back then, I was driven crazy by anger. Bai Liyan and Zhou Yixiu teamed up to take you away, making me worry for so long. You didn’t hate him, and you even took a bullet for him. My heart ached. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have done what I did."
Ji Yunhuan was silent for a moment, then spoke, "Let’s just say I wrongly accused you before. If you want an apology, I can say I’m sorry."
At that time, protecting Bai Liyan had angered Qi Cheng, but she didn’t think he had to kill Bai Liyan because of it.
Qi Cheng said, "Do you think I only want an apology from you?"
Ji Yunhuan looked at him, "Then what do you want me to do?"
He had already used her to hurt Bai Liyan repeatedly. Wasn’t that enough?
Qi Cheng looked at her cold eyes and sighed helplessly. "So even now, you still won’t forgive me?"
"Qi Cheng, regardless of why we separated, I don’t want to forgive you now."
"Ji Yunhuan!" Qi Cheng gazed at her painfully. "Do you know how much courage it took for me to stand in front of you again? I can overlook everything that happened between you and Bai Liyan, but you still won’t come back to me?"
"Thanks for your generosity, but you and I really aren’t suited to be together anymore." After returning from Huai Xi, she used to dream about being forgiven by Qi Cheng, but now she didn’t want his forgiveness anymore.
She and this man’s fate had long ended.
He had also made her lose hope a long time ago.
Qi Cheng listened to her words, his eyes filled with helplessness. He thought she was like him, always wanting to come back to him.
"We’ve divorced. Find someone to live your life with, and stop worrying about me." After saying this, Ji Yunhuan stood up, ready to find Ruirui. Qi Cheng grabbed her wrist and pulled her back into his arms. She looked at him, his eyes indifferent yet filled with deep affection. "I was excessive before, but it was only because I cared too much about you. Why can’t you forgive me just once? Do you know how long I searched for you after you disappeared? Even when Grandpa was sick, I didn’t stay by his side. I was always looking for you, afraid something had happened to you. You are my life. I want to forget you, but you are already ingrained in my being. If I could start over with someone else, why would I be here saying this to you?"
Ji Yunhuan looked at Qi Cheng. Being so close, she couldn’t ignore his words.
Her heart beat uneasily. His voice rhythmically struck her heart. Gazing into his eyes, she was almost mesmerized by him. She couldn’t help recalling Assistant Gao’s words. That day, Qi Cheng thought something had happened to her on Nanshan Island and wanted to die with her...
This man loved her deeply, more than his own life. She had known this for a long time.
Seeing him gazing at her so affectionately, Ji Yunhuan felt somewhat at a loss.
She sadly thought to herself that she had intended to reject him. But every time, she couldn’t truly follow through.
Would she really remain this useless?
Qi Cheng saw her stay silent, merely looking at him. Being able to hold her like this was probably the most blissful thing for him!
He lowered his head, slowly moving closer, almost kissing her...
"Mommy, Mommy!" The sound from the stairs startled her. Ji Yunhuan abruptly pushed Qi Cheng away, pulling herself out of his embrace. She glanced at him and awkwardly turned away.
She bit her lip, hating herself for nearly being deceived by him again.
Hadn’t he done enough already?
Hurting her so much, yet she almost fell for his lies again.
