Married to My Ex-Fiancé's Cousin-Chapter 311: The One with the Persistent High Fever (4)_1

Chapter 311: Chapter 311: The One with the Persistent High Fever (4)_1

Ji Yunhuan adjusted her breathing, lifted her head, and her face immediately regained its calmness. "Really? I’m fine!"

"I am more worried. You don’t look like you’re in a good mood. Are you missing Mr. Qi? How about I call Qi Cheng to come over?" Aunt Liu said, then turned to leave. Ji Yunhuan called her back. "Come back."

Aunt Liu returned, whispering incessantly in her ear. "Actually! Though the one who came yesterday was also good, I still think Mr. Qi is better. Mr. Qi treats Miss so well. He is gentle and considerate, and every time he comes, he brings Miss some gifts."

"He treats all women like this." Those who didn’t know might think he was attentive, but once you knew him, you’d realize he was utterly disgusting.

He must prepare many of the same gifts at home every day and give one to each woman, repeating the same thing.

Thinking of this, Ji Yunhuan felt she couldn’t finish her breakfast.

After finishing breakfast and leaving the house, Ji Yunhuan went to the restaurant.

Today, she even scolded a waiter, and everyone thought she was terrifying.

On normal days, Ji Yunhuan wouldn’t have cared about such a small matter.

"Did you eat gunpowder?" Wen Nuan asked her.

Ji Yunhuan sat on the chair. "No."

"Did you quarrel with Qi Cheng?"

"..." Ji Yunhuan couldn’t help but look up at Wen Nuan in front of her. Could she read minds? Ji Yunhuan turned her face away guiltily, not looking at Wen Nuan’s eyes. "What does it have to do with him? I haven’t seen him for several days."

"You don’t look the same when you miss him and when you’re angry at him." Wen Nuan almost said with certainty.

"I... and Qi Cheng..." Ji Yunhuan wanted to explain. She feared Wen Nuan’s anger.

"You don’t have to explain to me. I know it’s not easy for you to break up with him. What I told you is just for your reference." Wen Nuan looked at her and couldn’t help but sigh. "Leaving Qi Cheng might not kill you, but it seems it would make you very unhappy. Do as you wish."

Ji Yunhuan felt very conflicted in her heart:

Was it that serious?

Had Qi Cheng’s influence on her reached such a level?

Wen Nuan looked at her curiously. "Tell me, what did you quarrel about? What did you argue about?"

"Not much, just that I said I didn’t want to be with him, and then he got angry and left." Of course, Ji Yunhuan didn’t dare to mention Xie Xingwei being with Qi Cheng.

She didn’t want Wen Nuan to think she was being bullied. More so, she didn’t want her best friend to see her in such a miserable state.

"He deserved to be angry and leave. It’s his fault. I heard someone came to see you yesterday. Was it Shi Xuan?" Wen Nuan knew Shi Xuan was Qi Cheng’s second sister-in-law, so she was curious, "What did she come to see you for?"

Although her relationship with her second sister-in-law was good when she was in the Qi Family, her second sister-in-law hadn’t shown up in the past two years as if she had long forgotten Ji Yunhuan.

Mentioning her second sister-in-law, Ji Yunhuan felt a pang in her heart.

She didn’t hide from Wen Nuan, "Second sister-in-law is afraid I’ll be with Qi Cheng again."

"Uh... What is she afraid of? Didn’t she oppose your marriage to Qi Cheng before?"

Ji Yunhuan’s gaze dimmed. "After I left, Qi Cheng didn’t care about the child. Second sister-in-law has been taking care of Yangyang. Now Yangyang is two years old and has a very good relationship with her. Second sister-in-law treats him as her child. I think she is afraid that if I get back with Qi Cheng one day and return, I will take Yangyang away. So she hopes I will let her raise Yangyang as her son."

"..." Wen Nuan said, "She chose to take care of him. That’s on her. You not returning is one thing, but if you return, giving your child to her is unreasonable."

"Anyway, I don’t plan to go back. Let it be!" Ji Yunhuan sighed.

Previously always indecisive, this incident made her determined.

She also confirmed Qi Cheng didn’t love her that much.

Wen Nuan said, "I really think there’s something strange about you."

"No! You don’t have mind-reading skills. How could you..."

"Always guessing your mind, right?" Wen Nuan smiled. "Although you always pretend well, how many years have I observed you? It’s a pity I didn’t study psychology."

Ji Yunhuan helplessly glanced at her.

Wen Nuan said, "There’s nothing much in the store. Let’s go out for a walk! Don’t scold the young girl here. It’s not easy for her."

"..." Ji Yunhuan felt wronged. "I wasn’t that fierce!"

"Yes, you’re not fierce at all. You really aren’t fierce? Look, you’ve scared her to the point of tears." Ji Yunhuan looked over to see the young girl quickly getting back to work.

Leaving the restaurant with Wen Nuan, they wandered to two other restaurants. Wen Nuan planned to open a new store.

Ji Yunhuan admired her. "You’re amazing. If it were me..." frёeωebɳovel.com

"If it were you, you would have gone bankrupt a long time ago, right?" Wen Nuan said mercilessly. "It’s funny. Your father was once famous in City A, running such a successful business. How did you end up losing everything?"

When Ji Yunhuan first met Wen Nuan, she was in a miserable state.

Remembering the hardships she endured then, Ji Yunhuan felt ashamed.

Thus, over the past two years, all restaurant matters had been managed by Wen Nuan, allowing the business to thrive.

Wen Nuan was enthusiastic, studying customer psychology, and dedicating much time to business management—much more capable than Ji Yunhuan.

Spending two consecutive days touring, Ji Yunhuan only returned home late at night.

She felt a bit tired, lying on the sofa, her phone drained from the day’s use.

Aunt Liu approached. "Miss, Mr. Gao called today."

"Why did he call?" Usually, if Qi Cheng needed something, he would call himself. He wouldn’t let Assistant Gao call unless he didn’t want to see her.

In that case, Ji Yunhuan thought there was no need to bother with that heartless man.

Aunt Liu said, "I heard it might be because..."

Before she finished speaking, the phone rang. Ji Yunhuan sat up, grabbed the phone, and answered irritably, "Hello."

"Ms. Ji, I’ve been looking for you all day."

"What do you want?" Ji Yunhuan didn’t feel like venting her anger on Assistant Gao. Perhaps, she didn’t want to admit to herself that she was angry. Because she had told herself many times, there was no need, absolutely no need to be angry.

"Mr. Qi is sick. Please come and see him!" Assistant Gao’s voice sounded rushed.

Ji Yunhuan paused, her mind flashing back to the photo Xie Xingwei sent her that morning. She had worried enough for that undeserving man. "If he’s sick, call a doctor. Why call me?"

"Ms. Ji, must you treat Mr. Qi like this?" Assistant Gao sounded helpless.

Ji Yunhuan said, "There are plenty of women willing to worry about him in this world. I’m not indispensable. Assistant Gao, why trouble me? I’m busy. Goodbye."
