Chapter 294: Chapter 294: The Reunion of a Family of Three (2)_1

But what about her?

She felt sorry for him, felt guilty for what she did to him two years ago.

Ha...

Why should she feel sorry for such a man?

"Sir, Ms. Ji, it’s time to eat." The servant walked into the living room and said.

Qi Cheng stood up, "Let’s eat! Take this opportunity to have a good talk with him."

Seeing Ji Yunhuan not moving, he grabbed her hand and made her stand up, "You rarely get to see him, do you really want to let it go like this?"

His words brought some sanity back to Ji Yunhuan.

Her wish was just to take one look at the child. Just one look, nothing more! Nothing else mattered.

She brainwashed herself this way.

When they reached the dining room, Yangyang was already sitting there. In front of him was his special small bowl, very tiny, and his chopsticks were also petite, custom-made for him, very cute.

Qi Cheng pulled out the seat beside him and said to Ji Yunhuan, "Sit here."

Ji Yunhuan glanced at Yangyang and smiled at him before sitting down.

Even though she felt extremely sad, she forced herself not to think about those things to avoid leaving a bad impression in front of the child.

Compared to before, being able to see the child now was already a lucky thing.

Yangyang looked at her hesitantly. Qi Cheng quickly sat down on the other side, surrounding him between two adults.

The dining table was large, and the three huddled together looked a bit out of place, yet there was an indescribable warmth.

At least, that’s what Ji Yunhuan felt.

She never thought she could have a meal with her baby.

Yangyang wasn’t very happy to see Ji Yunhuan, but as a child, his principles weren’t that strong. He moved his mouth, wanting to chase her away, but his self-restraint prevented him from doing so.

Holding his chopsticks, he was actually still learning how to use them. Food was already placed on the plate in front of him, and the small bowl contained rice. This bowl, smaller than an average small bowl, perfectly matched his portion size.

Yangyang didn’t look at Ji Yunhuan, planning to eat with a combination of chopsticks and spoon.

Watching the chopsticks in his hands not aligning properly, Ji Yunhuan, afraid he might hurt himself, couldn’t help but reach out to help him, "Here, let me align them for you."

He looked at her coldly. His eyes, like black obsidian, were chilly, somewhat resembling Qi Cheng.

He wasn’t really cold, but he exuded an aura that kept people at a distance.

Ji Yunhuan felt a chill from his gaze.

Yangyang gripped the chopsticks again, holding them in his hands. Looking at the neatly aligned chopsticks, he seemed uncomfortable and, with a mischievous intent, deliberately made them uneven again before starting to eat.

Ji Yunhuan: "..."

She looked at Qi Cheng helplessly.

Qi Cheng said with resignation, "Eat something. You must be hungry too."

Both had just gone for a stroll after breakfast in the morning.

Ji Yunhuan picked up the chopsticks. It had been a very long time since she last ate here.

She wasn’t very used to the atmosphere.

As she ate, she kept looking at the baby. Yangyang noticed her gaze and quickly hid in Qi Cheng’s arms, "Uncle, she’s always watching me."

"..." Ji Yunhuan didn’t know if he was shy or if he disliked her reaction. Ji Yunhuan looked at him and asked, "Are you afraid of me looking at you?"

"Dislike." He wasn’t afraid; he just disliked it.

He disliked being watched by Ji Yunhuan.

It was a feeling he couldn’t describe.

Ji Yunhuan asked, "Why do you dislike me? Tell me the reason."

"You’re a bad person." He frowned with disdain.

Although it was just a child’s innocent words, it felt hurtful to Ji Yunhuan’s ears.

She looked at Yangyang, "I’m not a bad person. When you were very little, I held you, and you liked me a lot back then."

"Lies!" Yangyang sat back in place coldly, continuing with his meal.

To avoid making him dislike her, Ji Yunhuan tried to be less obvious when watching him, making an effort not to be caught.

Qi Cheng asked, "Yangyang, don’t you feel even a bit familiar when looking at her?"

"Familiar?" Yangyang raised his head to stare at Ji Yunhuan upon hearing Qi Cheng’s words.

Ji Yunhuan looked at him gently, restraining her urge to reach out and touch him.

She knew she had already done too many things today that made him dislike her. Crossed too many of his boundaries, so she held back.

Held back the urge to touch her son!

Held back the urge to make him call her "Mommy."

To a mother who hadn’t seen her child for two years, this was the most painful thing.

For many children, even though they didn’t grow up with their mothers, someone would often tell them about their mothers.

Despite being separated for a long time, when they met again, they might feel unfamiliar, not remember their mother’s face, or even show slight rejection. But they still had the concept of a mother in their hearts.

But for Ji Yunhuan, it was different.

In Yangyang’s mind, there was a concept of a mother, but that role had long been replaced by the second sister-in-law.

When she abandoned her child, the second sister-in-law had given him almost all of her maternal love.

Ji Yunhuan wasn’t even sure if, after revealing the truth, she would have the chance to re-enter her child’s heart.

If Yangyang knew what she had done, he would certainly hate her even more as his mother, right?

She looked at the child and thought about what she had done over the past two years, feeling an overwhelming guilt.

She couldn’t describe her feelings, just that it weighed heavily on her.

Before coming, she only wanted to see him once. But now, having really seen the child, she felt a deep sorrow.

Yangyang ate very slowly, nearly taking two hours to finish. Ji Yunhuan kept watching him the whole time, barely eating anything herself.

"Sir, the second madam called to ask about the young master’s situation." As they were finishing the meal, the female housekeeper walked in and said.

Hearing this, Yangyang raised his head uncertainly and asked, "Mommy?"

Although just a little over two years old, he was smart enough to recognize that it was the second sister-in-law’s call.

"Yes," the female housekeeper nodded.

While speaking, she glanced at Ji Yunhuan.

As a woman, how could the female housekeeper not understand Ji Yunhuan’s feelings?

But who caused all this?

No one forced her. It was all Ji Yunhuan’s own choices back then.

When Yangyang heard it was his second sister-in-law, he said, "I want, I want Mommy..."

"I’ll take the young master to answer the call." The female housekeeper came over and picked up Yangyang to leave.

"Don’t tell her that Yunhuan is here." Qi Cheng instructed.

"I understand," the female housekeeper nodded. Now, Ji Yunhuan wasn’t welcomed by the Qi Family. She wouldn’t mention Ji Yunhuan’s presence here. When Ji Yunhuan came today, Assistant Gao had already informed her.
