Married to My Ex-Fiancé's Cousin-Chapter 671 Enjoying Sleeping Alone_1
"Are you scared?" Qi Cheng looked into her eyes and didn’t miss the flash of worry that had just crossed them.
"Scared of what?"
"Scared I’ll be the same as before?"
"You won’t be?"
Qi Cheng really wanted to say he wouldn’t.
But he held back.
A man repeatedly using words to prove himself only proves his failure.
He let her go. "Go to sleep."
Her distrust made him look very disappointed.
Ji Yunhuan followed him. When they reached the stairs, she said, "Qi Cheng."
"What?" He stopped and looked at her.
Ji Yunhuan looked into his eyes and asked, "I have a sudden request."
"What is it?"
Ji Yunhuan walked over. "Can you carry me downstairs?"
Her request was followed by a moment of silence. Ji Yunhuan also felt she was being abrupt and smiled. "Never mind if you don’t want to."
"Of course I do." Qi Cheng walked ahead and squatted down. "Get on!"
Ji Yunhuan nervously lay on his back. He easily lifted her.
The hallway lights were on. Ji Yunhuan watched him, inhaling his charming scent. "I thought you wouldn’t want to!"
After all, they were already divorced. Making such a request would seem awkward.
Qi Cheng said, "No man would refuse a woman’s request, especially not the woman in his heart."
His words made Ji Yunhuan pause.
She remembered being on Qi Cheng’s back at the beach before. She asked if she was heavy, and he said she was his entire world, so very heavy.
She clearly hated him, but still chose to forgive him because of that.
Ever since then, Ji Yunhuan thought, if she ever got angry with Qi Cheng, she must let him carry her once. That way, she could more easily see into her own heart and understand what she truly felt.
Qi Cheng carried her step by step downstairs. Neither of them spoke. Everything was very quiet. Qi Cheng also remembered that time...
But now, would Ji Yunhuan make the same decision?
Yangyang had not yet slept. When he came out of his room, he saw Qi Cheng carrying Ji Yunhuan and curiously asked, "Mom, what’s wrong?"
"She’s fine." Qi Cheng put Ji Yunhuan down. Ji Yunhuan said, "Thank you."
He looked at her and couldn’t help but laugh. "Sleep early!"
Ji Yunhuan glanced at Yangyang. "Not sleeping with your dad?"
Yangyang seemed reluctant to look at Qi Cheng, but he also thought Qi Cheng sleeping alone would be too lonely. He reluctantly said, "Okay."
But Qi Cheng rolled his eyes at him and disdainfully said, "I like to sleep alone."
"..." After saying this, he willfully went back to his room.
Ji Yunhuan couldn’t help but despise him. Did he really not want to spend time with his child?
Ji Yunhuan lay in bed, staying awake into the night. Yangyang and Ruirui had long been asleep. The room was very quiet. Only the moonlight shone in through the window.
She looked at the window and thought about everything that had happened today...
She felt she was about to forgive Qi Cheng.
She just needed a little more courage and opportunity.
She didn’t want to return to him so soon. Even if she did, she didn’t want to be as weak and dependent as before.
Just because of what happened tonight, she decided not to hold any grudges against him for what he had done before.
They both had faults in these matters.
What’s more, Qi’s mother had told Ji Yunhuan about some things that happened to Qi Cheng after she and Ruirui left. At that time, Qi Cheng had nearly gone insane.
This man loved her. That fact couldn’t be denied.
The problem was with her. Her status was too low to stand by his side. Even if he cherished her, loved her, and could elevate her to the sky, it wasn’t her own ability.
A woman who cannot be financially independent and depends entirely on a man will slowly lose her allure.
So it wasn’t Qi Cheng’s fault. It was her own uselessness.
And she didn’t want to repeat the same mistakes.
Early in the morning, Qi Cheng knocked on the door.
He pushed the door open and came in, looking at Ji Yunhuan and the two sleeping children in the big bed. The room housed the three people he loved the most. This thought made him happy.
"Time to get up." He walked over and sat at the bedside.
Ji Yunhuan opened her eyes and lazily looked at him. "Isn’t it still early?"
"You can sleep a little longer. I’ll go first then?"
Qi Cheng’s words woke Ji Yunhuan up. She had no car and still needed Qi Cheng to take her back.
She sat up, reached for her phone on the cabinet, and looked at the time. It was already late.
She blamed it on her late-night thoughts of a certain someone.
Thinking of this, Ji Yunhuan resented Qi Cheng.
Yangyang and Ruirui also got up one after another.
The two little ones climbed out of bed. Ji Yunhuan got up to help them dress and wash as usual.
She had to spend a lot of time on her sons every day, but she didn’t find it troublesome at all.
Qi Cheng watched from the side, speechless. "Do you serve them like this at home too?"
"So what?"
"Don’t you have maids?" With maids, she wouldn’t be so exhausted.
Ji Yunhuan glanced at this obviously irresponsible children’s father. "Of course, I take care of my own kids. Why let the maids do it?"
Though it would be easier, she wouldn’t feel involved.
Hearing her, Qi Cheng helplessly smiled. "I really don’t understand you women."
"I don’t understand why you’re so cold-blooded either," Ji Yunhuan said. "Look at other fathers. Who acts like you? When I asked Yangyang to sleep with you, you even despised him."
"Exactly," Yangyang chimed in.
"Right..." Ruirui cheered on the side.
Qi Cheng: "..." He felt these two kids were like Ji Yunhuan’s little soldiers. Whatever she said, they echoed without their own stances.
After breakfast, Qi Cheng took them home. Ji Yunhuan got out of the car with the kids. Qi Cheng had someone bring their things into the house.
Yangyang ran ahead and was the first to enter. Standing at the door, he called, "Uncle Bai."
Ji Yunhuan looked at Bai Liyan waiting at home. Bai Liyan looked up, seeing the four of them enter. It was a happy, harmonious scene. In such a short time, Ji Yunhuan and Qi Cheng were back together.
Just like the housekeeper said, no matter how much hatred there was between them, for the sake of the kids, they would reunite.
Thinking of this, Bai Liyan felt immense sorrow.
He stood up. Ji Yunhuan had already led the children in and put Ruirui on the sofa.
