Married to My Ex-Fiancé's Cousin-Chapter 568: Second Brother Returns_1

Ji Yunhuan finished speaking, and a soft sigh was heard: "You’re quite clever, knowing to force me to forgive you at this time."

If he didn’t forgive her, she would leave him.

If he forgave her, it would be difficult to bring up this issue again in the future.

But Qi Cheng still chose to believe her, or rather, he had no choice at all. He owed this woman so much and loved her so deeply.

He reached out and held Ji Yunhuan in his arms, speaking in her ear, "I know you don’t like being doubted by me, but many times, I love you too much. The more I care about you, the more I think, and I’m always afraid that you and Bai Liyan have an unclear past, afraid that you’ll leave me. Yunhuan, many times, I think, I must owe you from a past life. Otherwise, why would I love you so much in this life? I’ve never loved anyone like this before. You’re the first and only one..."

Ji Yunhuan held his hand around her waist without saying anything. Until she almost fell asleep, he kept whispering in her ear.

She understood his thoughts. She loved him, too. For him, she gave up so much.

She was even too lazy to care about those past things anymore.

...

Half a month later, Assistant Gao called and told Ji Yunhuan that the second brother was back.

The second brother’s return was earlier than Qi Cheng had expected. It must mean the work was already done.

Ji Yunhuan sat beside Qi Cheng and heard Assistant Gao say, "Can you guess who was the first to pick him up?"

"Who? Wasn’t it the second sister-in-law?" He asked, which made Ji Yunhuan curious.

"It was Lin Xiang!"

Assistant Gao’s answer surprised Ji Yunhuan. Lin Xiang going to pick up the second brother couldn’t be on behalf of the second sister-in-law. After all, the second sister-in-law was now the one who wanted to see the second brother the most. She wouldn’t let Lin Xiang go.

Assistant Gao gave his opinion, "I think Lin Xiang seems to be interested in the second brother."

"No way? Didn’t Lin Xiang like Qi Cheng?"

"Before, Mr. Qi sold Lin Xiang to the nightclub, and it was the second brother who saved her. She hasn’t been pestering Mr. Qi lately. Don’t you think it’s a bit strange?"

"You keep an eye on it. I got it." Ji Yunhuan hung up the phone and thought about Lin Xiang liking the second brother. It seemed... it was really possible.

She hadn’t noticed this before, but now... she should pay attention.

...

At the airport, Lin Xiang followed behind the second brother, looking at him, "Second brother, are you tired?"

"What are you doing here?" The second brother asked Lin Xiang in surprise.

Lin Xiang smiled, "I also just took a flight and saw you."

Lin Xiang indeed dressed appropriately for boarding.

But she did it to find a legitimate reason to see the second brother.

"You must be tired too. Go home and rest first."

"But I have something to say to you."

"What is it?" The second brother already had someone load his luggage onto the car, his eyes falling on Lin Xiang.

"Recently, a woman named Luo Shan came to your house, saying she was pregnant with your child. I want to ask, is it true?" This matter made Lin Xiang very uneasy. She didn’t like any other woman bearing the second brother’s child. Even if someone had to bear it, it had to be her.

"..." The second brother knew about Luo Shan, but it was impossible for them to have that kind of relationship. After all, he had always been a disciplined person, with no other women around him. However, he wasn’t in a hurry to explain to Lin Xiang, looking at her and said, "Luo Shan is in my house? Then your second sister-in-law must also know about this?"

Lin Xiang nodded, "Second sister-in-law knows."

The second sister-in-law had been angry recently because she couldn’t reach the second brother.

The second brother got in the car, "I’ll go home first. You should go back and rest too!"

"I want to go to your house." She hadn’t seen the second brother for a long time. Lin Xiang missed him very much. She liked the second brother and naturally didn’t want to be separated from him. She hadn’t seen the second brother for so long, and her longing was no less than the second sister-in-law’s.

The second brother didn’t know her thoughts and just went along with her.

In his mind, Lin Xiang was just a little girl.

When the second brother and Lin Xiang arrived home, Qi Cheng and Ji Yunhuan were also there. Seeing that Lin Xiang came in with the second brother, Ji Yunhuan smiled quietly to herself.

It seemed her guess was right. Lin Xiang really had her eyes on the second brother.

The second brother had a family background and appearance not inferior to Qi Cheng’s. His personality was better and he was more mature and gentle than Qi Cheng.

It made sense for her to like the second brother.

Ji Yunhuan unobtrusively observed Lin Xiang’s attitude toward the second brother and said nothing.

Lin Xiang didn’t care about Ji Yunhuan. She thought she hid her feelings well and didn’t bother to guess what Ji Yunhuan and the others were thinking.

When the second brother was around, all her attention was on him.

The second brother said to the servant, "Go call Shi Xuan."

The servant quickly went to call the second sister-in-law.

Seeing Qi Cheng and Ji Yunhuan there, the second brother’s expression was not good. He stared at Qi Cheng, "I heard you brought Luo Shan to the house and said she was pregnant with my child?"

Knowing the second brother would be angry upon returning, Qi Cheng had already been prepared and remained calm, "Just a joke."

"Qi Cheng!" The second brother said, "Even jokes have limits. How can you slander me like that? No matter what, Shi Xuan is still your second sister-in-law. Aren’t you going too far?"

How could he not see Qi Cheng’s motive?

It was just to anger the second sister-in-law.

Thinking of the outrageous things Qi Cheng did while he was away, the second brother got very angry.

When Qi Cheng’s mother heard the second brother was back, she hurried over. Seeing the second brother angry as soon as he entered, she asked in confusion, "What’s going on?"

The second brother sat on the couch, tugging at his tie, "Qi Cheng said Luo Shan’s child is mine! It’s not true."

"..." Qi Cheng’s mother heard this and looked at Qi Cheng. She almost didn’t need to ask because she knew what Qi Cheng’s motive was. She calmly asked, "What’s going on?"

"What’s going on? What else? He just wants to upset Shi Xuan. It’s one thing for him to mess around, but Mother, you’re joining in?" Thinking of the absurd things they did while he was away, the second brother got furious.

Qi Cheng’s mother sat down and asked, "That child really isn’t yours? But before, I saw you two seemed quite close."

"That was just work. Luo Shan’s child belongs to one of my colleagues." The second brother looked at Qi Cheng, really wanting to hit him.

Seeing how much he disliked Qi Cheng, Qi Cheng’s mother couldn’t help but act as a mediator, "It must have been a misunderstanding. If it was, then let’s just pretend this never happened."

"Can it be like it never happened?" Lin Xiang also glared at Qi Cheng: "Qi Cheng, it’s really excessive slandering the second brother’s reputation. Everyone ended up thinking the second brother really had a woman outside."

Ji Yunhuan saw how Lin Xiang defended the second brother and remembered how she used to defend Qi Cheng the same way.

It instantly confirmed her suspicions.
