Qi Cheng held the remote control in his hand, staring at the TV, completely ignoring Lin Xiang’s words.
Lin Xiang got no response and felt it was boring. She glanced at Qi Cheng. "Brother Qi Cheng, do you really dislike being with ? If you don’t like , then I’ll leave."
Seeing that Qi Cheng had no intention of paying attention to her, she was genuinely a bit sad and opened the door to leave.
Lin Xiang went downstairs and wandered around, feeling very uncomfortable.
She didn’t understand why she was not better than Ji Yunhuan!
In terms of beauty, she was not inferior. No matter how good Ji Yunhuan looked, she was already ambiguously involved with Bai Liyan.
But these days, even if she was by Qi Cheng’s side, even if Qi Cheng had already agreed to marry her, she could still feel that Qi Cheng had never looked at her directly.
She paced anxiously upstairs. When Butler Liu saw her, he asked, "Ms. Lin, are you unhappy?"
Lin Xiang originally wanted to leave out of spite. But Qi Cheng completely ignored her. Even if she really left, it seed aningless. In the end, she just wandered around the manor to adjust her mood.
The sightseeing car took Ji Yunhuan and Bai Liyan to the center of the lavender field. Bai Liyan got out of the car and extended his hand to Ji Yunhuan. "Co down."
Ji Yunhuan got out. There were endless purple lavender flowers all around. The scenery was breathtaking.
The sightseeing car left, and no one was there to disturb them.
Ji Yunhuan followed behind Bai Liyan, looking at the endless lavender fields, and couldn’t help but smile. "It’s so beautiful here."
"Do you like it?" Bai Liyan stared at her. When she smiled, it was like a rainbow in the sky, even more beautiful than the flower fields in front of them.
Ji Yunhuan didn’t notice Bai Liyan looking at her. The srizing scenery of the flower fields attracted all her attention. "Yes."
"This place is so beautiful, so people often co here to take wedding photos." Bai Liyan walked ahead, introducing the place as they walked. "This is my friend’s estate, passed down through their family. It is said that the original owner of this estate was my friend’s father. When he built this place, it was because his wife particularly liked lavender. He originally wanted to take her to Provence, but her health was poor and unsuitable for flying. To make his wife happy, he built this place."
Ji Yunhuan looked around. Because of the distance, she couldn’t see the castle, only the road in the middle specifically for the sightseeing car.
Ji Yunhuan marveled, "It’s a very beautiful love story. His wife was very fortunate."
Bai Liyan retracted his gaze from her. "It’s just a rich man’s ga. To think about it carefully, if my friend’s father were a man with nothing, he wouldn’t have been able to build this place, even if he wanted to."
Ji Yunhuan chuckled. "But the intention was good. How many people in this world would do so much for their wife? Most rich n would beco bad."
Bai Liyan looked at Ji Yunhuan and suddenly held her hand. "If I am willing to do so much for you, would you be willing to marry ?"
Ji Yunhuan froze and instinctively wanted to avoid it. But Bai Liyan held her hand and didn’t let go. "Yunhuan... I am serious. I’m not joking. I really want to marry you."
Ji Yunhuan awkwardly stopped him. "Bai Liyan, don’t joke with ."
Bai Liyan looked at her tenderly. "Although I just want to quietly stay by your side, I don’t want you to be as helpless as you were today the next ti you see Qi Cheng."
Ji Yunhuan was a bit surprised. "You noticed?"
"When Qi Cheng showed up, you must have been very surprised. Seeing him with Lin Xiang, you felt very uncomfortable." Bai Liyan could see right through her: "I noticed. That’s why I hope you’ll be my wife. Yunhuan, you know you can’t go back to Qi Cheng. So choose . Only by starting with can you forget him."
"Bai Liyan!" He had said he would only be her brother. Now suddenly saying this left her at a loss.
Bai Liyan said, "I previously said that marrying you was only to help you, and I wouldn’t like you. But now, I retract that statent. If we get married, I would try hard to be a good husband. I’d cherish and take care of you."
He rembered Ji Yunhuan had told him she didn’t want to casually choose soone anymore.
So he wanted to beco the person she could rely on.
Ji Yunhuan was overwheld by his sudden confession. Although they had discussed marriage before, Bai Liyan had never spoken so seriously to her before.
She was a bit surprised. "But I... I still have Qi Cheng in my heart, and I’m carrying his child. Besides, I don’t have the sa feelings for you. Being with you is unfair to you. You’ve been very good to . I don’t want to be so selfish."
"I know all of this." Bai Liyan mustered the courage to express his thoughts. "I don’t mind if Qi Cheng is in your heart. I’d love his child together with you. It doesn’t matter if you don’t have feelings for . Don’t worry about fairness. I am willing to accept everything about you, and I am ready to embrace all your past. No matter what others think, I want to marry you as my wife."
He held her hand tightly. Ji Yunhuan was a bit flustered. "I don’t know how to answer you. Let think about it."
"Yunhuan."
"Let’s walk ahead." She broke free from his hand, quickening her pace and creating a distance from him.
Watching her hastily retreating figure, Bai Liyan knew he had been rejected.
The wind blew her dress and long hair. He looked at her back and smiled helplessly. It seed he could still only be her brother.
Before she completely let go of Qi Cheng, she wouldn’t accept him.
Ji Yunhuan walked ahead. After confirming Bai Liyan hadn’t followed too closely, she slowed her pace.
The way Bai Liyan acted didn’t seem like he was marrying her just for the sake of her child. Did he... like her?
The scary thought struck her, and Ji Yunhuan imdiately shook her head. It wasn’t possible.
He had seen many won. How could he possibly like her?
A vicious, heartless pregnant woman.
Moreover, she was his friend’s ex-wife.
Not wanting to frighten her, Bai Liyan didn’t push her too hard.
This seed to be his first ti confessing to a woman, and he was rejected.
Suddenly, he felt a bit sad.
He couldn’t help but think of the won he had rejected before. He sympathized with them a bit now.
It turned out that unrequited love could be such a heart-wrenching thing.
They wandered around the area. The sightseeing car ca to pick them up. To avoid running into Qi Cheng and the others, Ji Yunhuan and Bai Liyan wandered elsewhere, not returning until it was dark.
