Chapter 301: Chapter 301 Seaside Romantic Interactions (4)_1

She leaned on his shoulder and didn’t say another word.

She just thought to herself that the next time they had an argument, she would definitely make him carry her on his back.

This feeling was completely different from usual.

Leaning on his shoulder, her dislike for him and her worries seemed to vanish. She only wanted to stay by his side, without thinking about anything or pondering over things.

"Why aren’t you talking?"

She was too quiet, and Qi Cheng couldn’t get used to it.

"I was just thinking, if the day never turned to night, we could just keep walking like this!" She often had such yearnings, but they were usually fleeting.

Qi Cheng looked at the beach ahead. Quite a few people were already preparing to leave.

Hearing Ji Yunhuan’s words, he couldn’t help but smile. The warmth in his eyes was even more comforting than the sunlight.

He said, "Keep walking? Do you want to tire me to death?"

"..." This killjoy of a man! Ji Yunhuan didn’t even bother to scorn him.

After staying by the sea for half a month, they finally went back to City A.

As soon as they got off the plane, Qi Cheng arranged for someone to send Ji Yunhuan home. "You should head back first."

"Looks like you’re not coming with me?" It was rare for her to want to leave him proactively.

Qi Cheng took off her sunglasses, looked into her eyes, and smoothed her long hair with his hand. "What, can’t bear to leave me?"

"Who can’t bear it? I’m just happy." She looked at him disdainfully, put her hands in her pockets, and turned to leave. Qi Cheng grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms. He could feel that over the past half a month, Ji Yunhuan’s heart had completely returned to him. It was as if the wound that had pained her for the past two years was finally healed. This feeling was wonderful for him. He lowered his head and kissed her forehead. "I might come by later. Rest well after you get back. I know you’re tired from the flight."

Ji Yunhuan looked at his gentle expression and wanted to scorn him. Somehow, she couldn’t find the words. She chose to remain silent instead.

Qi Cheng told the attendant next to him, "Make sure to send Madam back safely."

"Yes."

Ji Yunhuan gave him a look, put her hands back in her pockets, and left.

As she walked away, Qi Cheng gently patted her shoulder with remarkable tenderness.

In the car, Ji Yunhuan took a nap. She admitted she was somewhat tired. She felt like she hadn’t had a good night’s sleep in days. The driver took her to the door and opened the car door for her. "Madam."

"Call me Ms. Ji." What Madam? She and Qi Cheng had been divorced for a long time.

"Yes." The driver didn’t dare upset her. He took her luggage out and, along with the attendant who had escorted her, brought it inside.

Aunt Liu came to open the door and saw her. "Ms. Ji, you’re back."

"Bring my things inside." Ji Yunhuan instructed Aunt Liu. These were just items she bought over there. When she left with Qi Cheng, she hadn’t brought anything, but now she’d returned with several large boxes.

Aunt Liu quickly took the items away. Ji Yunhuan glanced at the two people who had escorted her back. "You can go now. I’m home."

The two of them bowed to her before leaving.

Ji Yunhuan walked into the house and saw Wen Nuan sitting on the couch, looking at her with a complicated expression.

"Sister Wen Nuan, you’re here!" She walked over and smiled at Wen Nuan.

But Wen Nuan gave her a cold look.

Ji Yunhuan sat down and, seeing Wen Nuan looking angry, asked in confusion, "Who upset you?"

"You." Wen Nuan’s voice was cold, not warm at all. It seemed as if it had come from the refrigerator.

"I..."

Ji Yunhuan looked at her in confusion.

Before she could say anything, Wen Nuan already yelled unceremoniously, "Do you know how many days you’ve been gone?"

"More than ten days," Ji Yunhuan said guiltily.

Normally, Wen Nuan was very gentle. But when she lost her temper, it was frightening.

Wen Nuan sneered, "You know it’s been more than ten days. Did you tell me when you left? I see that being with Qi Cheng every day makes you almost forget you have a friend like me!"

"No." Ji Yunhuan didn’t expect her to be so angry. "I was in a bad mood those two days, so I just..."

"You’re in a bad mood, so you get tangled up with him? You left without a word. Are you mad at me for speaking harshly to Qi Cheng at the restaurant that day?" Otherwise, Ji Yunhuan wouldn’t have missed work the next day.

"I thought I told you the day before. You knew I had something to do." Ji Yunhuan apologized, "I’m really sorry. Has the restaurant been busy lately? I’ll go to work later."

"You know I’m not here to talk about work." Wen Nuan stared at her and asked seriously, "Are you really planning to get back together with Qi Cheng?"

"I... I don’t know." Ji Yunhuan hadn’t made a decision yet, but she was sure she didn’t dislike Qi Cheng.

Especially since they had been together almost every day for the past half month. Being by Qi Cheng’s side didn’t feel bad.

"You don’t know?" Wen Nuan looked at her in disappointment. "If it were the old Ji Yunhuan, she wouldn’t say something like that to me. You still can’t forget him. Did you forget your determination to leave him two years ago?"

"I went to his house that day and saw the child." Ji Yunhuan hadn’t forgotten her determination two years ago. But how should she put it? Qi Cheng’s attitude towards her made her feel that sometimes she was too fixated on some things, always hurting herself and him.

"So?" Wen Nuan asked.

Ji Yunhuan explained, "I’ve always wanted to see the child. You know, I thought I could let go of everything, but I could never let go of the child. Just that day... after seeing the child, I realized how ridiculous I was back then. I’m probably the most failed mother in the world. The child saw me as a stranger. You’re a mother too. You should understand that feeling. I didn’t want to be with Qi Cheng. I just felt so down, too heartbroken, so I disappeared for so long."

"And your parents’ hatred? Have you forgotten?" Wen Nuan looked at Ji Yunhuan, hating her for not living up to expectations.

When Ji Yunhuan divorced Qi Cheng, she did it very quickly. Even Wen Nuan, as Ji Yunhuan’s friend, had no idea. She only found out after calling the Qi Family.

When Wen Nuan went to the Ji Family to find Ji Yunhuan, Ji Yunhuan was in a terrible state. That miserable appearance still haunted Wen Nuan.

It was precisely because of this that Wen Nuan felt Ji Yunhuan and Qi Cheng could never be together.

But it had only been two years.

Ji Yunhuan said, "It’s because I can’t forget, that I’m so upset."

If she could forget the past hatred, she wouldn’t be so conflicted now.

Seeing her so conflicted, Wen Nuan advised earnestly, "Yunhuan, you can’t forget Qi Cheng, not because you really can’t forget, but because not enough time has passed. As for the child... you’ve missed two years. What good would it do to make up for it now?"
