Ji Yunhuan felt very uncomfortable being stared at by him. She couldn’t help but say even more harshly, "I’ve already had a child with Liyan, yet you still can’t forget . It seems you really do like a lot! If it were in the past, I might have been reluctant to let you go, after all, you are so wealthy and treated well. But now I have Liyan, and I don’t care about you anymore. Can you please stop interfering in my life like this? It only makes Mr. Qi look even more pathetic."
The elevator door opened, and Ji Yunhuan took the opportunity to step in.
Bai Liyan followed her inside.
The elevator doors closed in front of Qi Cheng. His hands had already stiffened into a tight grip.
Lin Xiang stood beside him, "Brother Qi Cheng."
She hadn’t expected that to be Qi Cheng’s ex-wife.
She originally thought Qi Cheng was always high above all won. She never imagined that Ji Yunhuan would treat Qi Cheng with such coldness, and yet Qi Cheng...
Because the aura around Qi Cheng was so intimidating, Lin Xiang stood to the side, not daring to get close.
Standing in the elevator, Ji Yunhuan’s hand ached from Qi Cheng’s grip.
Bai Liyan watched her reaction, "Are you OK?"
Usually, she kept things between them clean and clear. Only when facing Qi Cheng would she deliberately say those things. It showed that she really intended to part ways with Qi Cheng.
"Sorry to trouble you again," Ji Yunhuan said, "Because of , you’ve completely lost Qi Cheng as a friend."
"Besides, you and Qi Cheng are not suited for each other. Being with him would only hurt him," Bai Liyan comnted from the side.
Upon hearing this, Ji Yunhuan looked at Bai Liyan.
Bai Liyan laughed, "You think I’m wrong? What happened two years ago is the best example, right? If it were any other woman by his side, they wouldn’t treat him that way. But you, you are too heartless. So don’t harm him anymore."
Ji Yunhuan knew Bai Liyan said these things to comfort her.
"So you’ll let tornt you?"
"I don’t mind! Anyway, I don’t have feelings for you, so you can’t hurt ," Bai Liyan looked at her and suggested, "Think carefully about marrying . You really don’t have any choice."
After hearing Bai Liyan’s words, Ji Yunhuan’s expression unexpectedly beca much more serious, "I really appreciate your help, but let’s forget about marriage. I don’t want to hastily marry soone again. A long ti ago, I thought that as long as there was no one I loved, I could just find soone to spend my days with. But... I later realized that being hasty also cos with a price. I don’t want to repeat the sa mistake. My marriage to Qi Cheng was too rash. Since I made one mistake, I don’t want to repeat it. Although I’m very happy you are willing to help , marriage is still sothing I’d like to avoid! I don’t want to drag you down, nor do I want to regret it myself."
"All right." It was rare for her to talk heart-to-heart with him. Bai Liyan said, "If you don’t want to marry, that’s fine."
"What about your parents..."
"I’ll explain to them."
Coming out of the building, Bai Liyan handed everything he bought to the driver, who put them in the trunk. Bai Liyan chivalrously opened the car door and said to Ji Yunhuan, "Get in."
Ji Yunhuan glanced at him, feeling quite awkward, "You don’t have to be so nice to ."
"A man opening a car door for a woman counts as being nice?"
"..."
Always worried that Qi Cheng might co to her ho looking for her, Ji Yunhuan didn’t rush to go back ho. She stayed at the Bai Family Residence for a few days.
Aunt Bai treated her very well.
Bai Liyan’s father had a busy schedule and only stayed for a day before leaving.
In the morning, after Ji Yunhuan woke up, she had breakfast with Aunt Bai.
Bai Liyan had already gone out early.
Since it was raining outside today, it wasn’t too hot. Ji Yunhuan said to Aunt Bai, "Aunt Bai, I want to go out today."
"Where to? I’ll have Liyan go with you," Aunt Bai was worried about her going out alone as a pregnant woman.
Ji Yunhuan quickly refused, "No need, Liyan has been very busy these past few days. I don’t want to trouble him. I co-own two stores with a friend, you visited one before. I want to go and check on it. Don’t worry, I’ll be careful."
"All right." Aunt Bai smiled, "I can’t keep you cooped up at ho every day. You seem much better these past few days. Yunhuan, I told you before, I treat you like my own daughter. I know it’s not easy for won, especially without family around. If you’re willing, you can consider family. When you feel wronged, co here. Treat this place as your ho, OK?"
Ji Yunhuan didn’t expect Aunt Bai to say these things.
In all the years they’ve been together, she indeed felt happy and could sense Aunt Bai’s care. She was touched, "Thank you, Aunt Bai."
Before, when she was close with the Gu Family, Mrs. Gu never treated her like this. She even despised her for disgracing the Gu Family.
Logically speaking, the Bai Family, with their status, should despise her even more.
But Aunt Bai was genuinely kind to her.
She felt truly moved.
When Ji Yunhuan was about to leave, Aunt Bai still reminded her, "Be careful on the way."
She also arranged a special car to take her.
The servant handed an umbrella to Ji Yunhuan, "Ms. Ji, take care."
This feeling reminded Ji Yunhuan of her childhood, when her mom would see her off to school, especially on rainy days, reminding her of many things.
She smiled at Bai Liyan’s mother, "Thank you, Aunt Bai. Thank you, everyone."
"Co back early." Aunt Bai smiled while seeing her off into the car.
Ji Yunhuan had always been a cold person.
But Aunt Bai made her feel incredibly close.
She found that in front of Aunt Bai, she almost turned back into a child.
-
The driver took Ji Yunhuan to the restaurant entrance. After getting out of the car, she held the umbrella and walked into the restaurant.
The rain wasn’t heavy, but it gave the whole street a feeling of Jiangnan water town.
The restaurant staff were busy, and when they saw Ji Yunhuan co in, they all greeted her.
"Sister Ji."
"Sister Yunhuan."
Wen Wen saw Ji Yunhuan, "Where have you been these past few days? You haven’t co around, were you having fun with that Mr. Qi of yours?"
Ji Yunhuan denied, "No."
"I didn’t see you for a few days, and I didn’t want to ask you." Wen Wen gave Ji Yunhuan a look and walked upstairs. She had a lounge upstairs in the restaurant, which was equivalent to her office.
Ji Yunhuan followed behind her, "Sister, are you very busy?"
"The restaurant had so issues these past few days." Wen Wen was very anxious.
"What happened?" Ji Yunhuan wanted to help a little.
She didn’t want to burden Wen Wen with everything.
Wen Wen pushed open the door and entered, sitting down in the chair, rummaging through the drawer for sothing, "Yesterday, the landlord contacted , saying they were not renewing the lease for the store and want us to move out as soon as possible. This store has been open for so many years, and now at this crucial mont, how can I find a suitable store?"
