Chapter 217: Chapter 217 Yun Huan is Pregnant (12)_1

Ji Yunhuan’s second sister-in-law listened and then smiled confidently, "Your second brother wouldn’t do that."

"Are you so sure?"

"We grew up together. I understand him. If he had another woman in his heart, I couldn’t have stayed by his side all these years. I haven’t even had a child with him. If he didn’t want me, he wouldn’t need to hide it from me." At this point, the second sister-in-law looked at Ji Yunhuan, "If the problem you mentioned happened, and he was really with another woman, I might... forgive him! Although it sounds pathetic, I am willing to give him a chance. Because I can’t live without him. If I left him, I feel like I would die. Of course, that’s only if he still wanted to continue and wanted my forgiveness."

Ji Yunhuan couldn’t help but think the second sister-in-law was truly a good woman after hearing her words.

At this time, a servant walked in from outside, "Madam, the third young master said you should go back tonight."

"Tonight?"

"Yes, he said tonight. You don’t have to go too early."

"Why?" Ji Yunhuan felt strange.

The servant regretfully said, "I don’t know either. The call from there said so. He will send a car to pick you up then."

"I don’t want to go!" Ji Yunhuan refused.

The second sister-in-law saw that she still seemed to be mad at Qi Cheng and didn’t say anything.

The servant had no choice but to relay Ji Yunhuan’s message back.

But the driver still arrived in the evening, and the female housekeeper personally came to pick Ji Yunhuan up.

Ji Yunhuan didn’t leave, and they just waited outside.

"Go and see him!" The second sister-in-law knew Ji Yunhuan was actually worried about Qi Cheng.

Despite the hatred, there was still concern. This was love—an irrational and pride-less love.

Ji Yunhuan got into the car that Qi Cheng had sent for her.

She looked at the female housekeeper sitting beside her and asked, "Why is Qi Cheng looking for me?"

"You’ll know when you get there."

"Has he been staying at home these days?" She was more curious if he had been fooling around with another woman while she was angry.

"Yes." The female housekeeper glanced at Ji Yunhuan, "Sir knows you’re mad at him, so he didn’t dare to come see you."

"Then why did he ask you to come get me today?"

When they got back to the Qi Family estate, it was entirely dark. It was hard to see any light outside. The driver didn’t drive the car into the yard like usual, but stopped at the bridge.

"Madam, please get out of the car," the female housekeeper said, opening the car door for Ji Yunhuan.

Ji Yunhuan got out of the car and stood on the bridge, staring at the lake outside. What she saw was a dazzling array of lights, hidden in the night, appearing extremely hazy.

The stars in the sky were very dim. The river lanterns on the lake took away the original brilliance that belonged to the stars.

Looking at this scene before her, Ji Yunhuan was momentarily surprised. Did he make her come just to see this?

The lake was not small, and all the river lanterns were placed from the steps over there. A breeze blew, and many newly lit river lanterns were carried away by the wind.

"Where is Qi Cheng?" Ji Yunhuan tightened her coat around her.

"Over there," the female housekeeper led Ji Yunhuan along the riverside path. Not long after, they saw Qi Cheng. He was squatting by the steps, lighting the lanterns. The river lanterns passed through his hands one by one, then floated away into the lake.

He was very focused and quiet. His fine face showed a kind of tranquility...

The female housekeeper spoke, "Sir, madam is here."

He then turned around and looked at Ji Yunhuan.

Having not seen her for a few days, his heart had been filled with longing. Now that he saw her, he couldn’t help but smile.

Ji Yunhuan walked over, looking at this man who, now up close, she could see more clearly. Over his shirt, he wore a black coat. His handsome face was stunning.

Her heart inexplicably sank.

She had seen many handsome men, but she just couldn’t resist his face.

You couldn’t quite say how handsome he was, but you felt no one could compare to him.

However, thinking that other women were just as infatuated with him deeply hurt Ji Yunhuan.

No matter how pleasing his appearance was.

No matter how deep his affection seemed.

He was still a scumbag, a liar!

Qi Cheng stood up. Having squatted for too long, his legs were numb. He almost fell into the lake, but fortunately, the person beside him caught him just in time.

Seeing such a composed person encounter this comical scene, Ji Yunhuan couldn’t help but laugh.

He didn’t miss the smile on her face. He walked up to her, speaking softly, "You’re here. I’ve been waiting for you for a long time."

Ji Yunhuan looked at him indifferently, her face becoming stern again, "What are you waiting for me for? Do you think doing this will change the fact that you were wrong?"

"This time, it was indeed my fault, and I am unable to change it." Qi Cheng looked at the river lanterns filling the lake, "Do they look good?"

"So what if they’re beautiful? Just like you, they’re fake," she said disdainfully.

Qi Cheng didn’t mind. He gazed at her gently. His fingers glided over her cheek, "I’ve been thinking about you these past days."

She tried to push him away, but he grabbed her hand firmly, "I didn’t touch her with these hands, rest assured!"

Ji Yunhuan’s expression remained cold, "I don’t believe you."

She was really afraid she might impulsively forgive him.

"I will make you believe." Qi Cheng held her hand in his palm, looking into her eyes, "Don’t be mad at me. Forgive me. All those river lanterns have ’I’m sorry’ written on them by me. When you see how many there are, you’ll know how much I want your forgiveness."

His gentle words, like rhythmic notes, struck at her heart, easily captivating her.

Ji Yunhuan didn’t know how to discern the truth in his words.

She also hated herself for wanting to believe him at such a time.

But if she forgave him like this, she would appear too weak!

So no matter what Qi Cheng said, Ji Yunhuan forced herself not to believe him.

Qi Cheng wasn’t in a hurry. He continued placing the river lanterns. Ji Yunhuan sat on the nearby wooden bench, watching him do what she considered a pointless task. She felt she couldn’t really understand him. Many times, he would waste time on such insignificant matters.

But, watching him so focused, you couldn’t even muster any anger.

"Stop doing that. Even if you continue, I won’t forgive you."

He glanced at her, his bright eyes like stars, "I’m not doing this to make you forgive me."

"Then what’s it for?"

"To tell you I love you." He crouched on the steps, looking at the lake that resembled a starry sky, "I don’t want you to be angry with me while you’re pregnant. Seeing you angry makes me hate myself. I admit I was wrong this time, but not because of any involvement with Xia Duo, but because I didn’t consider your feelings. My approach was wrong."
