Chapter 240: Chapter 240 Setting Her Up (3)_1

"You already know about your parents. That was five years ago. Ever since you married Qi Cheng, he has been protecting and taking care of you. If it weren’t for that, your relationship with him wouldn’t be so good. Even if you divorce now, what can you change? Can you change the fact that you had a child with him, or bring your parents back together?"

Every word Grandpa Qi said was imposing.

Usually, Ji Yunhuan wouldn’t be able to speak a word in front of him. But now, she knew firmly what she wanted to do.

"Even if nothing changes, I’ll seek peace of mind." She spoke coldly.

"Peace of mind? What’s that?" Grandpa Qi looked at her. "You just found out about this. I understand you need some time to think. Every decision you’re making now is impulsive. Considering you’re still young and immature, I’ll give you two years. If after that time you still don’t want to be with Qi Cheng, and wish to abandon everything for past resentments, I’ll agree to your divorce."

"Two years?" Ji Yunhuan rejected him without hesitation, "I can’t convince myself to stay by his side for two years! I won’t stay even for a second longer."

"So, you won’t even give me face?" Grandpa Qi squinted his eyes dangerously.

The anger in Ji Yunhuan’s heart overwhelmed the slight unease he caused, "If I’m with Qi Cheng, you’re his grandfather, of course, I’ll respect you. But if I divorce him, who are you? Why should I give you face?"

She knew that as long as she angered Grandpa Qi, he would likely drive her away without her even needing to ask.

After all, given his noble status, how could he tolerate a woman being so disrespectful to him?

"You’re indeed a bit clever." Grandpa Qi couldn’t help but sneer. He saw through her plan at once, "But if you think this will make me agree to your divorce, you’re too naive!"

"..."

"I’ve already decided; it won’t change. You can’t be sure what your thoughts will be in two years, just like you didn’t foresee the grudges you would have with Qi Cheng when you gave birth to his child. We can’t control everything in this world. I’m giving you time for your own good, hoping you won’t make a decision you’ll regret. Once you divorce, know that you won’t even have the chance to regret it!"

He gave Ji Yunhuan absolute mercy.

However, this wasn’t what Ji Yunhuan wanted. She said firmly, "I won’t regret it."

"You won’t wait even two years?" Grandpa Qi was a bit angry.

"No."

"What if I don’t agree? If I don’t agree, do you think you can divorce him smoothly?"

Grandpa Qi’s words echoed Qi Cheng’s.

Ji Yunhuan knew well that the Qi Family could cover the sky with one hand. She had no right to resist. The only thing she could decide was her own fate, "If that’s the case, the one staying by Qi Cheng’s side won’t be me but a corpse."

"Are you threatening me?" The pressure in the car quickly became intense.

Ji Yunhuan realized she had gone a bit too far.

Grandpa Qi knew Ji Yunhuan had attempted suicide by jumping into the lake, but he didn’t expect her to use the same threat on him!

Did this girl know who he was?

Anyway, this act completely angered Grandpa Qi.

He said to her coldly, "Very well, if you want to die, I will fulfill your wish!"

Ji Yunhuan paused, feeling that Grandpa Qi was somewhat terrifying at this moment.

Grandpa Qi didn’t let her go but took her directly to the airport.

On the way, Ji Yunhuan asked, "Where are we going?"

"Don’t you want to leave Qi Cheng? If you’re not afraid of death, what are you afraid of?" Grandpa Qi looked at her coldly, "Since you want a divorce, show me your determination!"

A private jet had already been prepared for Grandpa Qi, so even without any identification, he could take her away.

Qi Cheng had been bedridden all day due to illness, receiving fluids due to the cold he caught yesterday.

In the evening, the female housekeeper knocked on the door and came in, "Sir, Madam hasn’t come back yet."

"Did you call her?"

"I couldn’t reach her," the female housekeeper frowned.

Qi Cheng lay on the bed, "She really doesn’t want to see me?"

The female housekeeper sighed, "Madam seemed genuinely very angry."

"Of course, she’s angry." Qi Cheng smiled bitterly, "She’s always valued her family so much. No matter how much time passes, she’s never forgotten her family, let alone such deep resentment. If someone else had hurt her, she might not be this angry. But the person who hurt her was me!"

The deeper her hatred, the more it showed how much she really loved.

"But sir, you’ve always treated her with sincerity and never wronged her. Even if you divorce, it won’t benefit her, right?"

"She won’t think of that," Qi Cheng coughed twice again.

He instructed the female housekeeper, "Call her friends and tell them to ask her to come back. Say that the child is crying."

She might be heartless to him, but she couldn’t be heartless to the child.

Qi Cheng knew she went to see a lawyer today and surely would come back with the divorce papers for him to sign.

She was eager to leave his side.

But he naively hoped she would change her mind before that happened.

Even if it meant being hated by her, he just wanted to keep her by his side.

The female housekeeper nodded, "Yes."

After she left, the room was filled once again with only Qi Cheng’s short coughs.

He suddenly remembered a saying: Love is like a cough, it can’t be hidden.

Actually, he wished he could stop loving her too. That way, he could let her go without any sadness.

Wasn’t she just a woman? There were so many women in the world.

He could go back to how he was before.

But when he thought of her, when he thought of her leaving, his heart ached terribly.

Before long, there was another knock on the door, and the female housekeeper came in, "There was a call just now. Grandpa knows about your divorce and has taken Madam away."

Qi Cheng froze, "Where did he take her?"

"Grandpa happened to go back today. He probably took Madam with him."

Qi Cheng coughed twice more, looking disbelievingly at the female housekeeper.

He knew Grandpa’s character and he knew Ji Yunhuan wouldn’t compromise. If Ji Yunhuan was really taken away...

Qi Cheng suddenly threw off the covers and stood up. The female housekeeper quickly supported him, "Grandpa shouldn’t do anything to Madam."

"He might," Qi Cheng’s eyes were filled with worry, "Grandpa hates the mention of divorce the most. And with Yunhuan’s personality... If I don’t go, she’ll suffer."

He understood her too well!
