Married to My Ex-Fiancé's Cousin-Chapter 539 Two Childish Men_1
Bai Liyan didn’t disturb her either.
Seeing Qi Cheng enter with Yangyang, both men’s expressions turned ugly.
Since they had fought before, their faces were bruised, making them look somewhat comical.
Fortunately, neither of them intended to have another fight like at the Qi Family’s place. They both chose to remain silent.
Assistant Gao said, "Madam, Mr. Qi is here."
Ji Yunhuan turned her head, looking at Qi Cheng. Not only had he come here, but he had also brought Yangyang along.
This eased her worries a lot; at least her second sister-in-law wouldn’t succeed.
However, seeing Qi Cheng, she didn’t know how to react or face him.
Even though someone was plotting against her, even though she and Bai Liyan weren’t in such an ambiguous relationship, she still made Qi Cheng lose face.
What happened at Mr. Qi’s birthday party turned his deep affection for her into a joke.
Guilt welled up inside her. So, the moment she saw him, her throat tightened, and she couldn’t utter a word.
Ji Yunhuan turned her back to him, resuming her dazed pose.
Qi Cheng walked to her side, grabbed her hand, and said discontentedly, "Is this how you react when you see me?"
Ji Yunhuan glanced at him, "Then how should I react?"
Qi Cheng waved his hand, and Assistant Gao quickly said, "Mr. Bai, young master, let’s step out for a moment, shall we?"
Bai Liyan carried Ruirui upstairs. Assistant Gao also took Yangyang away, leaving only Ji Yunhuan and Qi Cheng in the living room.
He squeezed her hand tightly, causing her pain but refusing to let go. Ji Yunhuan looked at Qi Cheng, saying, "Shouldn’t you be angry? What are you doing now?"
"Then what do you think I’m doing?" Qi Cheng stared at her seriously. "I’m afraid you’ll be sad and upset. I’m comforting you. Can’t you see that?"
"..." It was hard to imagine him comforting someone with that attitude. Ji Yunhuan said, "I’ve made you lose face. Isn’t it ridiculous for you to seek me out?"
"You made me lose face; if I don’t come to hold you accountable, should I let you and Bai Liyan be together?"
"..." Ji Yunhuan bit her lip, her voice filled with sadness. "Sorry, Qi Cheng, I don’t know how to explain what happened today. I know no explanation will make things right."
"That’s unnecessary! I just want you to see clearly how good I am to you."
Ji Yunhuan was taken aback.
Qi Cheng said, "Do you really think I can’t see that all this was a setup? Do you think I’m so stupid that I can’t see someone is trying to force us apart?"
Ji Yunhuan said, "So, why did you still come? They don’t want us to be together."
"Exactly because of that, I don’t want to give them what they want." His eyes were cold as he pulled Ji Yunhuan into his arms forcefully, his voice suddenly gentle in her ear, "I admit, when I saw those photos, I was really angry. There were so many moments with you and Bai Liyan that made me jealous. But what could I do? I can’t just hand you over because someone else wants you, can I?"
Ji Yunhuan leaned into his arms, unable to say a word.
Qi Cheng slowly lifted her head, looking at her seriously, trying to reassure her, "I already told Mom that we would move out and stay elsewhere for a few days. You can take this time to calm down, don’t think about anything. Leave the family matters to me. I know Second Sister-in-law wants Yangyang, but no matter what she does, I won’t let her succeed! I’ll make her understand that even if we separated one day, Yangyang would have nothing to do with her."
Ji Yunhuan took a deep breath, "Don’t you think you’re being silly? If you let go of me, these problems wouldn’t exist."
"Dream on! I’ve said it before, you’re not allowed to think of leaving me."
"..."
Qi Cheng lowered his head and bit her lip hard, "Can’t you ever listen? Do you know how tiring it is to guard against you being taken away every day? Can’t you fight for me?"
"Fight?"
Before Ji Yunhuan could respond, Qi Cheng had already let her go, "Come help me apply some ointment."
"..."
He sat on the sofa, glanced at her, and said in a whining tone, "I’m injured."
Ji Yunhuan glanced at his handsome face. She couldn’t help but feel a bit sympathetic. She reluctantly walked over, wrung out a hot towel, and started to wipe the bruises on his face. The hot towel touching his wounds made him hiss. Ji Yunhuan watched his expressions and couldn’t help but laugh, "Who told you to fight? Serves you right!"
Qi Cheng glared at her, "Didn’t I fight for you?"
"It wasn’t Bai Liyan who harmed me. Why did you hit him?"
"Who else if not him! He kissed you!" Damn, thinking about it made Qi Cheng want to go upstairs and fight Bai Liyan again.
Talking about that day, Ji Yunhuan fell silent. To her, it was just a simple action. Bai Liyan hadn’t thought much of it. He had just finished surgery and was overwhelmed. The person who took the picture deliberately twisted everything with the camera. Qi Cheng was a man with a strong sense of possession; he cared deeply for her. His anger was understandable.
Qi Cheng saw Ji Yunhuan’s silence and said discontentedly, "And you were watching the fight like it was a show."
"What was I supposed to do?" Ji Yunhuan felt helpless, "Even if I told you to stop, no one would listen. If I helped him, you’d probably be angrier, right?"
"Help him? You wanted to help him?" Qi Cheng grabbed Ji Yunhuan’s wrist tightly, "You should have helped me beat him up."
"..." Ji Yunhuan looked at this man speechlessly, "Are you a child?"
Bai Liyan was innocent. Not only did he fight, but he also blamed her for not helping. Was there anyone more unreasonable than him?
"You just can’t let go of Bai Liyan. You’re too good to him."
"I’m just being polite to him. Do you understand politeness?" 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺
Qi Cheng selfishly said, "You don’t need to be polite to someone like him!"
"..." Ji Yunhuan couldn’t help but apply more force with the towel, causing Qi Cheng to frown in pain, "Are you trying to kill me?"
"Who told you to be so unreasonable?" Ji Yunhuan said. "When you were sick, he cared about you so much. And weren’t you childhood friends? How can you be so ungrateful?"
"I’m just prioritizing my lover over friends."
"..." He even admitted it.
Bai Liyan came downstairs, seeing Ji Yunhuan helping Qi Cheng with his injuries. Qi Cheng acted like a big boss, even badmouthing him. Bai Liyan wanted to leave, but he sat down on the sofa.
