Qi Cheng pushed open the balcony door and stepped out. "What are you doing hiding here?"
Ji Yunhuan glanced at him. "Just enjoying the breeze! What else?"
"Since when do you have so much free ti that you don’t even spend it with our son, instead choosing to enjoy the breeze? And ever since you got back today, every ti I saw you, you were on your phone." She wasn’t one to be addicted to her phone; she rarely used it outside of making calls.
Ji Yunhuan put her phone in her pocket and said, "I’ve just taken a liking to it recently."
"Fine, you can play, but why hide from ?"
"Who said I’m hiding from you?" Ji Yunhuan didn’t understand why he would think that and conceded, "Okay, let’s go inside."
Qi Cheng reached out and pulled her back. "I co out, and you leave! Isn’t that hiding from ?"
"Don’t you dislike standing here?"
"The view here is quite nice."
Ji Yunhuan turned around, leaning against his chest, looking at the sky outside, and nodded. "Yeah, it is pretty good."
Qi Cheng looked at her profile and couldn’t help but smile. He lowered his head and gently kissed her on the cheek.
Ji Yunhuan looked at him, feeling helpless. "Can you stop doing this all the ti? Do you think I can forget about you yelling at at the company today just because of this?"
"Since when do you hold grudges like this?"
"I’ve always been like this."
Qi Cheng hugged her, "I was just joking with you."
"..."
The two of them stayed quietly for a while before heading back inside to sleep.
The next day, when Qi Cheng got up, he called her. He didn’t go to work with Ji Yunhuan; she had the driver take her.
When she arrived at the company, Ji Yunhuan found that Assistant Gao was already there. So, she called Assistant Gao over.
Seeing Ji Yunhuan approach, Assistant Gao said, "What’s up?"
Ji Yunhuan said, "I need you to help with sothing."
Naturally, Assistant Gao wouldn’t refuse her request.
Ji Yunhuan said, "Help find out where Bai Liyan is."
In City A, it was quite easy for Assistant Gao to find soone.
Assistant Gao said, "But Mr. Qi doesn’t want you to be too concerned with Mr. Bai’s matters."
"That’s exactly why I’m asking you for help, not him!" Ji Yunhuan wouldn’t be so anxious if she hadn’t been unable to reach Bai Liyan all this ti. She said, "I haven’t been able to contact Bai Liyan for days now. The last ti I saw him, he seed a bit off. Help find him and just make sure he’s safe."
"Alright." Assistant Gao always did his best to help with what Ji Yunhuan asked for.
Ji Yunhuan looked at Assistant Gao and said, "Don’t tell Qi Cheng about this. You know he’s jealous, and last ti Bai Liyan was with Zhou Yixiu. Check if sothing’s up with them."
"If it’s related to Zhou Yixiu, it might be hard to find out."
"Really?"
"Given my limited abilities, even Mr. Qi, when investigating these matters, has to ask the young master for help." After all, his older brother had more connections in these matters.
Ji Yunhuan said, "Then do your best to check. If you can’t find anything, we’ll figure it out later."
If Assistant Gao couldn’t find him, it would an sothing had likely happened to Bai Liyan. In that case, she wouldn’t need to bother Qi’s brother and would directly inform Auntie.
Assistant Gao said, "Understood."
Just then, soone else ca in, so Ji Yunhuan said no more and returned to her office.
Today, Qi Cheng didn’t co to the company; he had an appointnt to play ball.
When Ji Yunhuan got ho, he still hadn’t returned. She took off her shoes, sat on a bench by the door, and sat in a daze for a while, thinking that Bai Liyan couldn’t be sulking and intentionally refusing to answer her calls, right?
If that were the case, she wouldn’t know what to say.
But she believed he wasn’t that kind of person.
This made her even more worried about another possibility. Could Zhou Yixiu be planning to harm him?
Qi Cheng pushed the door in, only to see Ji Yunhuan sitting on the chair in a daze. He squatted down and looked at her, "What’s going on? Did your colleagues bully you today?"
She propped up her chin and rolled her eyes at him.
Qi Cheng laughed, "Do you now realize the benefits of having a husband? When I’m here, no one dares to bully you."
Ji Yunhuan said, "Don’t jump to conclusions, okay? The people at your company are quite nice. No one bullies ."
So far, Ji Yunhuan hadn’t seen any dark workplace battles. Everyone got along well, and the office atmosphere was good. Under Assistant Gao’s managent, there were no issues with rivalry, and naturally, no one would undermine others.
"No one bullies you, that’s good. But why do you look like this? You seem unhappy."
"No, I’m just thinking about so problems." Ji Yunhuan stood up, looked at Qi Cheng, and said, "If the woman you like doesn’t like you, would you be very upset? So angry that you wouldn’t want to talk to her? Or find a place to hide alone?"
Ji Yunhuan found she really didn’t understand what n thought.
But she noticed Qi Cheng’s face had darkened after hearing this, "Are you hinting at sothing? Are you thinking of leaving again?"
"..." Oh God! Ji Yunhuan had an urge to hit herself. Why ask anyone else but this sensitive and suspicious man? Moreover, his opinion might not even be worth considering.
Seeing her not answer, Qi Cheng stepped in front of her, "Speak! Did you encounter another problem? Are you thinking of leaving again?"
"I’m not." Ji Yunhuan felt exasperated. "Can you stop overthinking? I was just exploring the issue."
Qi Cheng listened to her but still wouldn’t relax. He stared at her eyes seriously, and seeing that she remained calm and didn’t look like she wanted to leave him, he reflected on himself, realizing he hadn’t done anything wrong. After so thought, he suddenly understood, "You’re worried about Bai Liyan, aren’t you?"
"..." She was surprised he guessed it, so she admitted, "Auntie called , saying that Bai Liyan, who used to call ho every two or three days, hasn’t been in touch for several days. I’m wondering if he has hidden himself to sulk. Do you think it’s possible?"
"Probably not." Qi Cheng thought seriously, "He’s not that type of person, right!"
Being a doctor, Bai Liyan understood how to manage himself. Qi Cheng wasn’t worried about him getting into trouble. "If he hasn’t contacted his family, he’s probably hiding sowhere doing research. It’s happened before. Whenever he encounters dical problems, he becos a different person."
"Really?" Qi Cheng’s words made Ji Yunhuan breathe a sigh of relief. "If that’s the case, then there’s no need to worry."
"Worry? You actually dare to worry about him?" Qi Cheng raised an eyebrow and glared angrily at Ji Yunhuan. "I told you not to pay attention to that man!"
