Ignoring the onlookers, she rushed into his arms and complained angrily, "Why didn’t you co a bit later?"
Because she was so hungry, her voice sounded weak.
Qi Cheng looked at her, his heart filled with pain and hatred.
He had indeed co too late.
Even in the morning, it was unbearably hot inside, with a strong sll of sweat. As a grown man, he couldn’t stand it, let alone her.
He reached out and brushed her head, anxiously looking at her. Seeing her in discomfort, obviously from spending the whole night here, he directly reached out and carried her out.
The policen who had brought Ji Yunhuan here last night were worried about her, but now seeing this scene, they were confused.
They had thought that she was an enemy of the Qi Family, as instructed by the second sister-in-law. But the concern in Mr. Qi’s eyes was undeniable.
Holding Ji Yunhuan, Qi Cheng walked out, leaving the slly and hot iron cage behind. He carried her to the sofa outside and placed her down.
The commissioner followed closely behind Qi Cheng, also sensing the seriousness of the situation. "Mr. Qi, is she..."
"My wife." Qi Cheng’s voice was as cold as ice. Assistant Gao nearby had already brought a cup of water. Qi Cheng reached out to take it, his slender fingers supporting the bottom of the cup. His worried gaze fell on Ji Yunhuan’s face, ignoring her disheveled state, and he coaxed, "Drink so water first."
Being so hungry, Ji Yunhuan had no strength at all, feeling a strong urge to vomit from the oppressive feeling in her chest. She lifted her eyebrows, opened her mouth to accept the cup Qi Cheng offered, and cool water flowed into her heart.
She leaned against him, grabbing his clothes with one hand, afraid that he would run away.
She was too afraid she was dreaming, that when she woke up, she would still be in the iron cage, and his appearance was only an illusion in her dream.
After Qi Cheng said, "My wife," the entire police station fell silent. Everyone looked at Qi Cheng soothing Ji Yunhuan, cold sweat continually forming on their foreheads.
The commissioner said, "Mr. Qi, we really didn’t know she was your wife. Otherwise, we would never have had the guts to do such a thing."
Ji Yunhuan had been divorced from Qi Cheng a year after their marriage.
Not everyone knew what she looked like.
Although Ji Yunhuan had introduced herself last night, who didn’t know that Qi Cheng and Ji Yunhuan were already divorced? No one expected such a situation. Moreover, it was the second sister-in-law’s instruction to lock Ji Yunhuan up.
"No guts?" Qi Cheng raised an eyebrow, his voice full of contempt and coldness, "I see you all think you are quite brave."
One of the policen who had brought Ji Yunhuan last night said, "Because last night the Qi Family’s servant called the police, saying soone was stalking the second madam and the young master, so we went to handle it. We also..."
"Stalking?" Faced with their explanation, Qi Cheng’s voice was icy cold. He looked down at Ji Yunhuan in his arms, seeing her pitiful state, his anger couldn’t be quenched.
After drinking the water and stepping outside where it was less hot, Ji Yunhuan felt much better.
Ji Yunhuan looked at the person who had locked her up without question, thinking of last night’s hellish tornt, and her chest burned with fire. "Last night I said to call the second sister-in-law. You directly ignored my plea, didn’t you? I said I wanted to make a call, but you didn’t give a chance and locked up imdiately."
"Is that so?" The commissioner looked over coldly.
The policeman’s face turned extrely awkward. It wasn’t that he wanted to, but...
The Qi Family over the phone indicated that was the second sister-in-law’s instruction.
He was about to ntion the second sister-in-law again, but seeing Qi Cheng’s terrifying deanor in front of him, he instinctively felt that ntioning her would have unimaginable consequences.
He explained, "Because it involved the Qi Family, I just treated it specially. I really didn’t know this lady was Mr. Qi’s wife."
The Qi Family was not to be trifled with. Anyone who dared to touch their interests would not have a good outco if they ended up here. It had always been like that.
It was a routine.
Speaking of it, Qi Cheng knew this too.
But seeing Qi Cheng’s current anger, it seed any explanation would be useless.
"Handle it how you see fit." Qi Cheng glanced at the commissioner, supporting Ji Yunhuan as he walked out of the police station.
The commissioner nodded repeatedly, apologizing to Ji Yunhuan.
Qi Cheng helped Ji Yunhuan, placing her into the car and getting in himself.
He looked at her, "How do you feel? Anywhere uncomfortable?"
"Everywhere is uncomfortable." Ji Yunhuan frowned.
Hearing her words, Qi Cheng’s heart ached fiercely, "It’s all my fault for coming so late and making you suffer so much."
He had really searched for her all night, but surrounding doors were all closed at night, everyone off duty. He couldn’t even check surveillance. He never thought she would be inside there, just thinking no matter what the situation, she would get a ssage to him.
Listening to his soothing voice, Ji Yunhuan said painfully, "I’m starving. I haven’t eaten anything."
One whole day and night, she was almost starving to death. It was just yesterday morning she had a al with Qi Cheng; after that, she only had an apple.
Qi Cheng let her rest against his chest, his heart aching badly, "I told you to go ho early, but you didn’t listen. Otherwise, this wouldn’t have happened."
"You still bla ?" She frowned, looking at him in grievance.
Qi Cheng sighed helplessly, lightly patting her shoulder, "Okay, I don’t bla you. It’s my fault for not taking care of you."
The car soon arrived ho. Ji Yunhuan got out of the car, but her legs were numb from squatting too long, almost falling. He quickly supported her, carrying her into the house.
Aunt Liu saw Ji Yunhuan and nervously asked, "Ms. Ji, what happened to her?"
"She’s hungry." Qi Cheng intended to place her on the sofa, but Ji Yunhuan stopped him, "I want to take a bath first."
"Eat first, then bathe."
"I can’t eat without washing up." Thinking of the hands that road over her last night, Ji Yunhuan felt nauseated. She grabbed Qi Cheng’s collar, whispering against his chest, "Qi Cheng, I’ve never felt as miserable as I do now. It felt like living in hell. Those n..."
"They touched you?" Qi Cheng’s eyebrows furrowed deeply.
"Yes." She didn’t deny it.
He hadn’t considered this. Hearing her ntion it now, cold sweat poured down his body.
Damn!
He thought she was just hot and hungry, never imagining...
Damn it!
Qi Cheng carried Ji Yunhuan into the bathroom, placing her on a chair. He went to run the bath, while Ji Yunhuan sat alone, starting to undress. She had never felt so dirty.
