Ji Yunhuan could read a sense of regret from Xia Duo’s eyes, feeling that Xia Duo now seed like a complaining woman who wanted to grumble to anyone she t. Also, from another perspective, Ji Yunhuan thought she might be similar to Xia Duo now.
With wealth and leisure, lacking nothing, these were the only things left to do when idle.
Fortunately, she didn’t marry the old man.
She too had no choice but to marry soone she didn’t love, yet she t Qi Cheng.
So, Ji Yunhuan thought, she was indeed lucky.
She asked Xia Duo, "Didn’t you say you had sothing to talk to about?"
Xia Duo was reminded by her, as if just recalling the purpose of finding Ji Yunhuan.
She said, "Do you know about Qi Cheng’s recent cooperation with Zhou Jinlian?"
Of course Ji Yunhuan knew about this, not understanding why Xia Duo brought it up, "You’re too idle every day, quite concerned about other people’s affairs."
"Looks like you know," Xia Duo said earnestly, "Then do you know about Zhou Yixiu’s cooperation with the Yun Family?"
"Yun Family?" Ji Yunhuan frowned, "Is it Yun Qinghang?"
She didn’t think the Yun Family would cooperate with Zhou Yixiu, but Yun Qinghang was different. He hated Ji Yunhuan and Qi Cheng to death, besides, Lin Zhenyu and Lin Xiang were sisters, cooperation between the two sisters’ n was normal.
Xia Duo said, "You seem to know clearly."
Ji Yunhuan asked puzzledly, "Did you co here just to tell this?"
Thinking that Xia Duo was still concerned about Qi Cheng’s affairs until now made Ji Yunhuan uncomfortable.
Or maybe, all she cared about was the Zhou Family’s matters? After all, the future of the two brothers in the Zhou Family was also closely related to Xia Duo.
Xia Duo said, "Zhou Yixiu has always been hard to deal with. His father pampers him, now that Yun Qinghang is cooperating with Zhou Yixiu, the little advantage Qi Cheng and Zhou Jinlian fought for has turned into a disadvantage again."
"Oh." Ji Yunhuan nodded, "I don’t quite understand what you’re talking about."
"..." Xia Duo was a bit speechless, she looked at Ji Yunhuan, "Do you never care about Qi Cheng’s matters?"
"We’re together, of course, I’ll care about him. Why would you think so?" Looking at Xia Duo’s nervous look, it seed she really wasn’t over Qi Cheng...
Xia Duo said, "As his wife, don’t you feel ashad that you cannot help him at all?"
Ji Yunhuan was stunned for a mont before realizing that Xia Duo ca to mock her.
Therefore, she beca serious, "What do you an by saying all this? Since when did you get so interested in my family’s matters?"
When Ji Yunhuan said ’my family’, it was a big blow to Xia Duo. It sounded as if Qi Cheng was already Ji Yunhuan’s possession. Although it was indeed the case, Xia Duo was still upset. She restrained herself and said to Ji Yunhuan, "I am now a person of the Zhou Family. I can have a say in the Zhou Family’s matters. If you beg , maybe I will help Qi Cheng."
"...Help?" Ji Yunhuan’s delicate eyebrows ca together, not quite understanding Xia Duo’s aning, "Why would you help Qi Cheng?"
"What you can’t do, I can do, and I’m willing to do," Xia Duo said. "As long as you ask , I can solve major problems for Qi Cheng. You should be very willing, right!"
Quiet music flowed in the café. Ji Yunhuan looked at Xia Duo dressed in ultimate luxury and a noble ensemble, a repressed smile erged from the bottom of her heart, she organized her words and said to Xia Duo, "So, you’re comparing abilities with now?"
"..."
"Madam Zhou." Ji Yunhuan lightly opened her lips, "If it were in the past, before you married Mr. Zhou, I could understand if you ca here to get jealous and find a sense of presence. But now that it’s how it is, isn’t it ridiculous to compare abilities with ? With what identity are you competing with ? As Madam Zhou, or as Qi Cheng’s ex-girlfriend? If it’s the forr, there are plenty of people in this world more capable than . If it’s the latter..."
Speaking to this point, Ji Yunhuan’s eyes revealed a confident smile, "Even if I can’t help Qi Cheng in his work matters, I can be his support when he’s weary. My existence is sothing that makes him happy because we have a complete family. What about you? Maybe you have abilities now, you can solve many problems for him, but so what? Can you leave Mr. Zhou and beco Qi Cheng’s girlfriend again, going back to the ti when you were in love? The key point is, would Qi Cheng want to accept soone like you, a woman who’s been with God knows how many n?"
"..." Ji Yunhuan’s words made Xia Duo grip the hem of her dress tightly with rage. If soone else had said those words, Xia Duo would definitely have been hit hard, but unexpectedly Ji Yunhuan was not only not struck down, she instead found a sense of superiority in front of her.
Xia Duo looked at Ji Yunhuan, her face serious, "Do you know your words have upset ?"
Ji Yunhuan shrugged, "There are too many people who dislike , which number do you count as? Why should I care about whether you are happy or not?"
"Ji Yunhuan!" Xia Duo’s voice sank, what started as a nice coffee session and chat with Ji Yunhuan ended up with her too upset to speak.
Ji Yunhuan said, "Madam Zhou has reached her current status with much difficulty, you should cherish it! Don’t repeat past mistakes, not like losing an engagent to soone like Fu Zilin."
Out of spite, Xia Duo said, "I don’t think I’m living worse than before."
"If that’s so, then why are you still scheming for Qi Cheng?" Ji Yunhuan asked in confusion.
A woman, marrying an old man, would anyone truly feel joy and happiness? Xia Duo being a woman too, Ji Yunhuan didn’t believe that Xia Duo truly loved Zhou Jilin.
It was precisely because of this that Xia Duo returned to City A trying to regain sothing!
Being confronted by Ji Yunhuan about her inner thoughts made Xia Duo very displeased and angrier at heart. She said to Ji Yunhuan, "These words you said today are enough to bring an enemy to Qi Cheng."
"Is that so?"
Xia Duo said smugly, "If I help Zhou Yixiu, what do you think will happen to Qi Cheng and Zhou Jinlian?"
Was Xia Duo threatening her?
Ji Yunhuan sensed it, and she responded with a composed smile, "But you wouldn’t do that."
"Why not?"
"Even if you want to help Zhou Yixiu, he may not need your help; in his eyes, what are you worth? Once Zhou Yixiu gains power, do you think you’ll have a good ending? As far as I know, your days in the Zhou Family haven’t been easy!" Sparring with Lin Zhenyu and Zhou Yixiu every day, Xia Duo’s days wouldn’t be much better.
Although Ji Yunhuan didn’t care too much about these matters, gossip would always surface, besides having interacted with Zhou Yixiu and Lin Zhenyu, she knew what kind of personalities they had.
Xia Duo clenched her hand in fury. Originally aiming to threaten Ji Yunhuan, she never expected her points to once again painfully hit a sore spot.
