He couldn’t let go of the child, nor could he let go of her. He was even more uneasy about leaving her by Bai Liyan’s side.
He wished he could be by her side at that very mont.
But...
There were too many people here.
The musical had started.
The theater quieted down with no other sounds.
Out of decorum, Qi Cheng also remained silent, but he wasn’t paying attention at all.
He looked at the stage, but what he saw in his mind was Ji Yunhuan’s previous performances.
She was so beautiful. Yet, to him now, she seed as distant as a lifeti away.
-
After the performance ended, Ji Yunhuan and Bai Liyan didn’t rush to leave. She was pregnant and didn’t want to be in a crowd, so they waited until most of the audience had left.
Qi Cheng and Lin Xiang had already exited through another door.
He was very afraid that she would run away with Bai Liyan.
Lin Xiang followed beside Qi Cheng, and Qi Cheng waved to call for his attendant.
"Sir."
"Take Ms. Lin back." Qi Cheng ordered.
Lin Xiang looked at Qi Cheng, knowing that he must be going to find Ji Yunhuan.
Her heart hurt terribly, but she had promised Qi Cheng that she wouldn’t cause trouble for him.
She sighed helplessly and said, "Then I’ll go back first."
Qi Cheng was a bit surprised that she was so obedient.
Ji Yunhuan and Bai Liyan’s car was waiting outside. The driver opened the car door, and just as Ji Yunhuan was about to get in, soone grabbed her hand.
She looked at the sudden appearance of Qi Cheng in surprise and instinctively glanced around. She wanted to push his hand away, but Qi Cheng said to Bai Liyan, "I need so ti."
Bai Liyan looked at them but said nothing.
Qi Cheng pulled Ji Yunhuan aside to his car and pushed her inside.
She hadn’t yet reacted before he followed her in.
"What are you doing?" She knew he ca with Lin Xiang.
Yet he ca to find her.
She genuinely didn’t understand what he wanted.
There was no driver in the car; they were alone.
He glanced at her, his heart pounding.
He discovered that only in front of her did his heart feel alive.
Seeing Qi Cheng’s silence, Ji Yunhuan couldn’t help but look at him. He lowered his head and fiercely kissed her lips.
Ji Yunhuan was held tightly in his arms, even feeling a bit of pain in her bones.
His kiss was dominating, but she could feel his intense longing for her.
Sneaking away from him was her fault. She didn’t expect they would et again so soon. After resisting for a mont, she couldn’t help but wrap her arms around his waist.
From the manor to C City, thinking about how she had promised not to leave him, but then secretly ran away, a deep guilt weighed on her.
Seeing him here, though mostly surprised, made her heart feel a bit lighter.
The surroundings were close. Qi Cheng slowly released her, looking at her with a serious voice full of dissatisfaction, "Were you just avoiding ?"
"What?" Ji Yunhuan looked at him, puzzled.
"You didn’t co out. I waited for you for a long ti." He feared she would sneak away because she didn’t want to see him.
Ji Yunhuan felt a surge of sadness at his words, "No. Liyan said we didn’t need to rush. We were just behind you. You forget, I’m pregnant."
Her words reminded him, and Qi Cheng relaxed his grip a bit. He stared at her, "At the manor, you left without a word. Do you know how angry I was?"
Ji Yunhuan lowered her head, "I didn’t want to, but you never listen."
"Is it who doesn’t listen or you?" Qi Cheng stared at her sternly, "When you leave without saying anything, don’t you feel even a little guilty? How can you bear to leave ?"
Ji Yunhuan felt deeply remorseful at his words, "Qi Cheng, the last thing I want is to hurt you. But many tis, I have no choice. Lin Xiang is your fiancée. You should treat her well."
"Is that the truth?" Qi Cheng looked at her seriously, "Do you really want to treat Lin Xiang well? If I treated her as well as I treat you, wouldn’t you feel any pain?"
Qi Cheng’s words made Ji Yunhuan’s heart skip a beat.
She looked at him.
If she were honest, she didn’t want it. Not at all.
She wanted Qi Cheng to always be by her side alone.
Seeing her silence, Qi Cheng understood her thoughts.
Of course, if she dared to say, "That’s the truth!"
He would rather strangle her and then kill himself.
He lowered his head, kissing her forehead. His eyes...
After a long, passionate kiss, he said, "I know it’s my fault for making you always want to leave my side. In the future, I’ll consider our future carefully."
Ji Yunhuan rested against his chest, hugging him tightly, "Qi Cheng, if people could foresee the future, knowing I would be so reluctant to leave you and our baby, I would have stayed by your side longer. Seeing you with Lin Xiang now, it really hurts . I wish I were heartless, not affected by seeing you with her, but I am just an ordinary person."
Her heart was also made of flesh. She felt pain for him, sorrow for him.
But no matter how painful, what’s the point?
Spilled water can’t be retrieved.
The past mistakes can’t be undone.
Qi Cheng held her tightly. He understood her feelings.
And it made his heart ache even more.
After a long ti, he composed himself and said to her, "When you leave C City, rember to call . Don’t sneak away again, and don’t leave in this empty city."
He initially planned to deal with his grandfather for two days and then go to City A to find her. But now, it seed unnecessary. He would leave when she left.
Ji Yunhuan thought Qi Cheng would always keep her by his side. She didn’t expect him to make such a decision. But she could feel that he was doing it for her.
They stayed in the car for a while. Although reluctant, Ji Yunhuan knew she had to go, "Liyan is waiting for ."
Seeing her about to leave, Qi Cheng grabbed her hand and said reluctantly, "Don’t let him touch you."
"..."
Hearing his words, Ji Yunhuan felt heartache.
She reached out with her other hand, covering his hand, "I know."
He clearly loved her, didn’t want her to be with Bai Liyan, but had to watch her go to another man’s side.
After all, they were in C City, unlike the distant City A.
If his grandfather knew Ji Yunhuan was here, he would certainly cause trouble.
So, Qi Cheng had to be careful and tolerant.
Ji Yunhuan opened the car door to get out, glancing back at him before leaving. He reached out, gently rubbing her shoulder, "Rember my words."
"I know." She and Bai Liyan wouldn’t have the kind of relationship he imagined.
