Because Wen Nuan had always stood on Qi Cheng’s side, she frequently persuaded Yunhuan in hopes of improving their relationship. With the current situation, she felt responsible.
Zhou Muqing grabbed her. "That’s their business as a married couple. It has nothing to do with you."
After handling an important matter, Qi Cheng was in a good mood. He returned to the Qi Family household; Ji Yunhuan had not yet gone to sleep. His second sister-in-law was looking at old family photos with her. Seeing him walk in, Ji Yunhuan showed a hint of surprise. He had co back earlier than expected. "You’re back?"
Qi Cheng ca over and, ignoring his second sister-in-law’s presence, pulled her into his arms. "Did you miss ?"
He always acted like this. The whole family was used to it.
"Have you eaten?" his second sister-in-law asked him.
"Not yet."
"Madam Wu, go prepare sothing," second sister-in-law stood up and said.
"Out for so long without eating. What were you doing?" Ji Yunhuan looked at him, curious.
"So things."
"What kind of things are so mysterious that you can’t tell ?"
He had been busy lately, so much so that he barely had ti for her.
Qi Cheng gazed at her and smiled gently. "Nothing is more important than you. I just didn’t want those ssy things to affect your mood. Lazy to ntion."
He had planned to deal with Xia Duo ever since she left that day. He had tolerated her repeatedly, but Xia Duo never knew when to back off. He had to teach her a lesson. He had been waiting for this chance while Fu Zilin was away.
Everything he did was for Ji Yunhuan. He didn’t want his past to keep causing her trouble. Naturally, he thought there was no need to tell her about it.
"If you don’t want to tell , then forget it." She turned her head and continued to look at the photos.
Qi Cheng held her hand tightly. "Things are almost settled. I’ll stay ho with you in the coming days."
She responded, "It’s fine."
"I know you’re happy," he looked at her. "You must be mad that I haven’t been around these days, right?"
"I really am not," she raised her head, her eyes showing a bit of joy.
He was willing to stay ho with her. It was a lie if she said she wasn’t happy.
Perhaps due to the pregnancy, she found herself especially reliant on him lately.
No matter how many people surrounded her, it didn’t bring as much comfort as Qi Cheng being by her side.
"Don’t lie to yourself," Qi Cheng smiled as he looked at her. Lowering his head, he wanted to kiss her.
Ji Yunhuan tily extended her hand, stopping him. Forced, he could only kiss her hand.
"Second sister-in-law is here." He really could start anything at any ti.
Qi Cheng didn’t mind the second sister-in-law’s presence. Seeing her so embarrassed, he didn’t push further.
In the following two days, Qi Cheng stayed ho with Ji Yunhuan.
On Saturday, Ji Yunhuan received a call from Wen Nuan to go out for tea. Having been cooped up at ho for too long, she agreed. Despite being pregnant, she still had her own rights.
Hearing she was going out, the family was opposed, especially Qi’s mother, who was the first to object. She was afraid sothing might happen if Ji Yunhuan was careless outside. Ji Yunhuan had second sister-in-law help speak well of her for a long ti before Qi’s mother agreed and allowed her to go out for a while.
She went back to her room to change clothes. Qi Cheng stood at the doorway watching her, "You’re going out?"
"Yeah."
"Dressed so nicely, where are you going?" He gazed at her. With spring arriving, the clothes were no longer that heavy. She could always easily dress herself beautifully.
Ji Yunhuan knew that Qi Cheng didn’t want her to go out either. "Wen Nuan invited for tea. I’m just going out for a bit. Ever since I got here, I haven’t gone out."
"You’re pregnant."
"But it’s not like I have to stay ho until the child is born! It’s just pregnancy, not that fragile. When my mom was pregnant before, she even went swimming, and nothing happened." Ji Yunhuan looked at Qi Cheng. "If you don’t let go out, I won’t have this baby. You know how hard it was for to get mom to agree to let go out."
"Fine, I’ll go with you." In front of his wife, Qi Cheng always compromised.
Ji Yunhuan originally planned to ask him to go with her.
Having him by her side was safer. She cared dearly for the baby inside her and didn’t want any accidents.
Especially now, as it was still within the first three months.
-
Wen Nuan’s ho wasn’t large, but it had a special warmth. It was the kind of ho feeling Qi Cheng yearned for.
Seeing Qi Cheng, Wen Nuan wasn’t overly enthusiastic.
It was Zhou Muqing who constantly tried to smooth things over from the side.
Finally eting, Ji Yunhuan felt like a stranded fish returning to water when she saw Wen Nuan.
The two had endless topics to talk about. Ji Yunhuan didn’t forget to ntion how she was almost going crazy being cooped up at ho during this period.
After a while of tea drinking, Wen Nuan took Ji Yunhuan to the yard to bask in the sun. She also told Ji Yunhuan about what she saw at the hotel that day.
She had pondered this matter repeatedly over the past few days. In the end, she still didn’t want to deceive Ji Yunhuan, making her a fool.
The more she was pregnant, the more leverage she had with Qi Cheng.
Otherwise, when the baby was born and the father had been stolen by another woman, that would be the most tragic thing in this world.
"You said Qi Cheng was with another woman?" Ji Yunhuan asked, not daring to believe.
Qi Cheng hadn’t wanted to leave her side lately. How could he have ti for another woman? But Wen Nuan wasn’t the type to lie for no reason.
"Yes." Bringing up the topic still angered Wen Nuan. She had been holding in this rage for days. "It’s true. I didn’t think Qi Cheng could be so excessive. I saw it with your Brother Zhou. It’s not false. No matter how flirtatious he is, he shouldn’t act this way while you’re pregnant. It’s worse than an animal!"
Ji Yunhuan fell silent. She couldn’t believe Wen Nuan would lie to her, as for Qi Cheng...
He always acted on his whims. It wasn’t impossible that he’d show interest in another woman.
Maybe in his eyes, as long as there was no emotional attachnt, whatever he did wasn’t considered betrayal.
Did he think that since she didn’t care about his past won, she wouldn’t care about future ones?
Wen Nuan looked at Ji Yunhuan and said, "I’m telling you this so you can ask clearly. Don’t get too upset. It’s not worth it. A man like him should be properly taught a lesson during this ti."
"I understand," Ji Yunhuan nodded, clenching her fists secretly.
She didn’t want to believe any of this, but she also didn’t want to deceive herself. If sothing like this was truly happening, what should she do?
She had said before she could overlook his past, but she would never tolerate him letting her down in the future.
After leaving Wen Nuan’s place, Qi Cheng took Ji Yunhuan to a restaurant.
Seeing the table full of dishes, she had no appetite and felt nauseous.
Pregnancy often brought such symptoms.
Qi Cheng looked at her, who was vomiting severely, his heart ached deeply.
