Married to My Ex-Fiancé's Cousin-Chapter 677: Avoidance Can’t Solve the Problem_1
He left the company today, only to find Luo Sha injured. He brought her here, clearly just wanting to check her wound, but Luo Sha’s parents caught him and assumed he had brought her to rent a room, showing how tightly they kept an eye on her.
Hearing Qi Mo’s concern, Luo Sha’s eyes filled with tears. She was used to it but that didn’t mean she wasn’t hurt. "It will stop hurting after a while."
As an outsider, Ji Yunhuan could scarcely listen any longer. She hadn’t realized there were parents like that in the world.
Before long, Qi Cheng came downstairs. The couple didn’t follow him down.
He walked over, glanced at Qi Mo, and remained silent. Ji Yunhuan asked, "How did it go?"
"I dealt with the girl’s parents. They won’t come for now." Qi Cheng looked at Luo Sha with some headache. "But they are still her parents."
Qi Mo said, "I want to be with Luo Sha, and I will marry her in the future."
"You’re only eighteen, and you plan to marry her?" Qi Cheng looked at Qi Mo disapprovingly. "Do you know that saying something like that and not being able to follow through will hurt Luo Sha greatly?"
The girl’s family situation was evidently poor, and her parents were so unreasonable. There was no way the Qi Family would allow such a girl to be with Qi Mo.
Besides, Qi Mo was still too young.
Dating was permissible. Getting into trouble was not.
"Who says I can’t follow through?" Qi Mo retorted indignantly.
"Would you dare bring her in front of your parents?"
Qi Mo glanced at the girl. Obviously, he couldn’t. "That’s my own business. We’re leaving!"
He took Luo Sha and went out the door.
Watching the two children’s backs, Ji Yunhuan couldn’t help glancing at Qi Cheng. "Were you like that too when you were eighteen?"
"Would I be like that?" Qi Cheng raised an eyebrow, clearly not.
He had only experienced his first love at twenty.
Hearing him say that, Ji Yunhuan couldn’t help but smile. "How much difference is there between twenty and eighteen?"
Qi Cheng cast her a glance. "I don’t know who it was that got engaged at fifteen!"
"That was my parents’ doing, not mine. I didn’t know anything at that time."
Qi Cheng glanced at Ji Yunhuan. "Let’s go home."
He wasn’t very keen on bringing up the past.
Ji Yunhuan was very worried about those two kids. "Are you really going to let Qi Mo take the girl back?"
"What else can we do? Look at him; can I control him?" But he couldn’t go to his big brother and sister-in-law to complain either. Qi Mo was eighteen, and if they tattled on him, it would really hurt him.
Ji Yunhuan said, "Why not let Luo Sha stay at my place? It’s better than Qi Mo taking her back."
Although Qi Mo had a place to stay, having a young man and woman alone together made Ji Yunhuan really worried he might get into trouble.
Qi Cheng said, "You don’t think it’s troublesome?"
"This is a way I owe Qi Mo." He didn’t want money, so she had to think of some ways to help him. Coming out of the hotel, Ji Yunhuan looked at Qi Cheng, "What did you say to Luo Sha’s parents?"
"That’s a secret." Qi Cheng wouldn’t say.
Ji Yunhuan could roughly guess. It was nothing more than threats and warnings. No matter how unreasonable those two were, they’d be intimidated by Qi Cheng’s assertiveness.
After all, Qi Cheng had a presence that when he stood in front of you, you would feel afraid of him.
He was good-looking and not a man of great wickedness, but he had that dominating aura.
Ji Yunhuan didn’t rush back home but went to Qi Mo’s place instead. There were no servants in Qi Mo’s house. Luo Sha sat on the sofa, and Qi Mo came to open the door. Seeing it was Ji Yunhuan, he was very displeased. "What are you doing here?"
Qi Mo found her annoying. If she hadn’t brought Qi Cheng here, none of this would have happened.
Looking at Luo Sha, Ji Yunhuan said, "I thought about it. If you don’t want to let Luo Sha go back home, let her stay with me, okay?"
"Why?"
"Having her stay at my place doesn’t stop you from seeing her."
"It’s better for her to stay with me."
"Qi Mo, you’re still young. You’re also just a kid yourself. In what capacity are you letting her stay here? Do you know how important reputation is to a girl? If you knew these things..."
"I know what you mean." Qi Mo interrupted Ji Yunhuan. "I won’t do anything to her."
"..." Ji Yunhuan entered the room. Seeing Ji Yunhuan, Luo Sha seemed a bit embarrassed.
Ji Yunhuan sat on the sofa and noticed a lot of medical supplies on the table. Clearly, Qi Mo was studying these to treat Luo Sha’s wound. Ji Yunhuan wrote out a medical supply list. "Go downstairs and get these."
Treating simple wounds was not a problem for Ji Yunhuan.
After Qi Mo left, Luo Sha grew even more nervous. Seeing Ji Yunhuan, she said apprehensively, "Qi Mo and I are just good friends. I won’t be greedy, so don’t worry."
Ji Yunhuan was taken aback by her words. It made her feel like she appeared as a villain in the girl’s eyes. Ji Yunhuan said, "I know Qi Mo is afraid you’ll get hurt if you go back, which is why he wants to keep you here. Luo Sha, what your parents did was wrong, but running away with Qi Mo is not the solution. If you’re willing, I can help you sort this out."
After all, even if they were parents, they shouldn’t be hitting their daughter like that.
Such violent behavior was illegal.
Luo Sha hurriedly waved her hands after hearing Ji Yunhuan’s words. "No, no, you don’t need to. Don’t go to my parents. They’ll get angrier! It’s always been like this since I was a child. Even if others plead for me, they won’t go easy. They’ll just think I went outside to complain and act pitiful, and then they’ll beat me even harder."
Ji Yunhuan reached out and gently held Luo Sha’s hand. She could feel the girl’s palm trembling. Since childhood, Ji Yunhuan’s parents had adored her deeply, so she couldn’t quite understand Luo Sha’s feelings.
But she knew that Luo Sha’s fear had developed over many years. Strict parents could make a child feel inferior down to their bones.
Looking at her, Ji Yunhuan said, "I don’t want you to be with Qi Mo in such an impulsive manner. I also hope you can return and face everything. Qi Mo can take you away from that home. He can help you run away. But they are your parents. Only you can resolve these issues. Luo Sha, you need to be braver. No one in this world has the right to treat you like that. Not even your parents. You need to have your own thoughts and make your own decisions, then your parents’ attitude will change because of that!"
Luo Sha bit her lip and looked at Ji Yunhuan.
Ji Yunhuan said, "Stay at Qi Mo’s for a couple of days for now. When you’re ready to go back, I’ll personally take you home."
Only by making the couple realize their errors could the situation be resolved.
After all, neither she nor Qi Mo had the right to let a girl become homeless because of them.
Moreover, what Luo Sha needed to face was not her parents but her own weakness.
