Chapter 157: Chapter 157 Is it because I talk too much_1
"I got it."
Qi Cheng came back, grabbing his clothes and putting them on as he said, "Let’s go back!"
"To where?"
"Home. My sister-in-law knows I’m not there and went over. She’s definitely looking for Ye Suya." Qi Cheng looked a bit anxious. He knew his elder brother would be back tomorrow. He didn’t want anything to go wrong after such a long period of peace.
Ji Yunhuan looked at him, "You’re so worried about Ye Suya! If sister-in-law went over, just let her be."
She didn’t want to care whether Ye Suya lived or died.
Qi Cheng cupped her face with his hands, kissed her, and said seriously, "That’s not good."
"What’s so bad about it? Just pretend you don’t know." She didn’t like Ye Suya anyway. She didn’t want Qi Cheng to rush over every time something happened with her.
Qi Cheng looked at Ji Yunhuan and said, "No matter how Grandpa handles Ye Suya’s situation, it should wait until my brother gets back. Haven’t you thought about it? If sister-in-law does something to Ye Suya now, how will my brother react when he returns? He’ll be furious, and things will get worse. For Leilei’s sake, you don’t want their marriage to end in divorce, right?"
"The way they are, they might as well divorce."
"If only it were that easy." Qi Cheng helplessly handed her her clothes, "Come on, let’s go back together."
"You go ahead! I’ll wait here."
With Ye Suya there, she didn’t want to go back.
Qi Cheng looked at her, "We’ve been here for two days already. There’s bound to be a pile of work waiting to be done."
"Then you go back! Don’t worry about me."
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Qi Cheng’s face darken.
Ji Yunhuan knew she must have said the wrong thing.
She had no choice but to get up and start dressing with him.
For some reason, she could always tell when he was genuinely angry and when he was just pretending.
Even if he said nothing, she could sense his emotions.
So, when there was a chance he’d really be angry, she wouldn’t go against him.
If she insisted on staying here, he’d think she didn’t care about him!
She wasn’t some unloved child. Why was he like this?
After dressing, she saw Qi Cheng handing her a coat. She complained, "You always force me to compromise and act all cute! Don’t you think it’s childish?"
"If I don’t act cute, how else can I get you to listen to me?" He looked at her, satisfied with himself.
He couldn’t bear to use force.
So he always resorted to acting petulant.
And it worked especially well. Ji Yunhuan was usually rational and mature. Most of the time, she didn’t want to argue with him.
She rolled her eyes, utterly resigned.
They went downstairs. The driver was already waiting. The female housekeeper stood by, holding the car door open for them. Although they hadn’t asked her to come over these past two days, she still came by every day to check on them.
To her, these two were like children who couldn’t be left unattended.
It was said that the female housekeeper had been working for the Qi Family since Qi Cheng was in elementary school. Later, when Qi Cheng moved out, she followed him. Since she had no children, Qi Cheng was like her own kid.
Often, the attention she gave Qi Cheng surpassed that of Qi Cheng’s mother.
When they arrived at the Qi Family home, his sister-in-law was standing at the door of Ye Suya’s room. She said to a servant, "Open the door."
She knew Ye Suya was inside, but the servants didn’t dare open the door for her.
"I’m sorry, Madam. Sir instructed that no one is allowed in without his permission."
"Not even me? You should know I’m his sister-in-law." Her voice was cold.
They were family. Qi Cheng used to never show her this kind of disrespect.
The servants, following instructions, didn’t dare go against Qi Cheng and could only wait under pressure for him to arrive.
Qi Cheng walked over, "Sister-in-law."
Hearing his voice, she turned around and glared at him, her brows furrowed, "Do you still recognize me as your sister-in-law? I guess you’ve long forgotten. In your eyes, that woman inside is probably your real sister-in-law now?"
Guilt flashed in Qi Cheng’s eyes, "I really don’t think that."
"If that’s not the case, then let me in."
She knew her brother would be back tomorrow, and would hide this woman again. Just thinking about it made her extremely resentful.
Knowing Qi Cheng wasn’t there, she had come over.
Qi Cheng said, "I can’t allow it. Sister-in-law, you should understand I’m doing this for your and my brother’s sake."
"Qi Cheng, you’re not even an official. Why are you using such words of deception? Do you think I’m a three-year-old you can fool?" She stood there, her features delicate but her expression cold.
Ji Yunhuan watched from the side, knowing she was furious.
However, Ji Yunhuan also knew Qi Cheng’s stance and that he wouldn’t compromise.
Facing her sister-in-law’s outburst, Qi Cheng calmly asked, "If I let you in now, what do you plan to do?"
She remained silent with a cold expression.
Qi Cheng added, "You certainly won’t let Ye Suya off, right? Today, your purpose here is to make things difficult for her."
"So what if it is?" She said, righteous and unabashed.
Should she tolerate that woman?
Qi Cheng kindly advised, "I know, as your younger brother, it’s not my place to say this. But... I’ve really had enough. Sister-in-law, you’ve always been successful in business. But at home, as a wife and mother, you’ve failed. When Leilei was one, you were always busy with work, leaving the child at home. No matter how busy my brother was, he’d always come back to take care of Leilei. When he couldn’t, he’d call. But you? Even when you were near home, you only focused on work. You’d go a month without checking on the family. Why do you think things are this way between you two? You should know deep down. My brother didn’t stop loving you. He once dedicated himself fully to this family. What did you do? Do you still think all the problems between you are his fault?"
"You..." Her face stiffened, but her pride wouldn’t let her acknowledge her mistakes, "Are you here to defend your brother?"
"If all I wanted was to defend my brother, I wouldn’t say these things. I’m speaking out of line today to make you see. If you truly want to keep this family together, stop doing foolish things to trouble Ms. Ye. It’ll only make my brother more disappointed in you. You’ve managed to use the threat of divorce to torment him. But a woman who can’t manage her own marriage is a failure, no matter how successful her career is. If you don’t reflect on your mistakes, even if you divorce, it won’t benefit you. No man wants to be with a woman who doesn’t value her family."
