Chapter 304: Chapter 304: Second Sister-in-law Wants Yangyang_1

"I’ve already had lunch."

Ji Yunhuan invited her second sister-in-law to sit at a table and said to the waiter, "Xiao Xin, a cup of coffee."

"Coming."

The second sister-in-law sat down.

Just by sitting elegantly, she seemed to elevate the simple French restaurant.

Not far away, a few waiters whispered among themselves, "That person looks so familiar! I think I’ve seen her in a magazine."

"I know, she designs wedding dresses. Her designs are famous."

"The largest bridal shop in City A is owned by her. The one in the city center. It’s very luxurious. I can only look at it from the outside every time..."

Xiao Xin walked over with the coffee, a bit excited, and didn’t dare to look at the second sister-in-law directly.

A woman’s importance isn’t defined by her looks but by her aura.

And the second sister-in-law possessed a queenly aura that commanded everyone’s attention.

The aroma of the coffee wafted from the cup.

Xiao Xin quickly left.

The second sister-in-law sat there, stirred the coffee slowly, and didn’t seem to have any intention of drinking it.

This wasn’t a proper coffee shop. The coffee probably didn’t meet the second sister-in-law’s standards.

Ji Yunhuan watched the unhurried second sister-in-law and calmly asked, "Is there something you need, second sister-in-law?"

She didn’t believe that her second sister-in-law just happened to walk in here and wanted to have a cup of coffee.

The second sister-in-law stopped stirring and smiled at Ji Yunhuan, "I heard from Yangyang that you’ve met him."

Ji Yunhuan paused.

She didn’t know what to say.

She had a strange illusion:

The atmosphere made her feel as if the second sister-in-law was talking about her own child, not Ji Yunhuan’s.

Seeing her silence, the second sister-in-law continued, "Yangyang has been spoiled by me, and has some temper. I was worried he wasn’t very polite to you, so I came to tell you not to take it to heart. He’s just a child."

Ji Yunhuan felt her heart ache.

She knew the second sister-in-law cared for Yangyang with good intentions.

But she...

Hearing the second sister-in-law talk about Yangyang as if he wasn’t her own son made her almost unable to breathe.

The afternoon sunlight shone on Ji Yunhuan’s face, highlighting hints of sadness on her delicate features.

Ji Yunhuan said, "It’s not easy for second sister-in-law to have taken care of him for this long. His difficult personality must be inherited from me. I’m sorry for causing you trouble."

The second sister-in-law smiled, "As long as you don’t mind. In my opinion, he’s a very good child."

Of course he was good!

It seemed like in his eyes, there was only the second sister-in-law, no one else.

Everything the second sister-in-law did was right.

The second sister-in-law was his most beloved mother.

The second sister-in-law was the most beautiful person in his eyes.

And Ji Yunhuan was just an irrelevant stranger.

Suppressing the painful emotions, Ji Yunhuan said, "Thank you for taking care of him, second sister-in-law."

The second sister-in-law looked at Ji Yunhuan, "Qi Cheng hasn’t come to visit these past couple of days, right?"

"No."

The second sister-in-law already knew she was with Qi Cheng. Ji Yunhuan felt inexplicably guilty.

The second sister-in-law smiled, "You don’t have to blame Qi Cheng. Grandpa has been here these past few days. He probably isn’t convenient to come see you."

"Second sister-in-law doesn’t need to tell me this. Whatever Qi Cheng does is his own choice." Instinctively, she wanted to hide her relationship with Qi Cheng.

She had left too heartlessly back then. Now she didn’t know how to face anyone related to the Qi Family.

It was all just too embarrassing.

So now, she really didn’t want anyone to think she was clinging to Qi Cheng.

Although Qi Cheng was the one clinging to her, as long as she didn’t clarify their relationship, she was the one clinging! After all, she was a divorced woman whom everyone mocked, while Qi Cheng was Mr. Qi living at the top of the ivory tower.

The second sister-in-law was a bit surprised by her words, "Is that so? I saw him take you to see the baby and then take you out for a long time. I thought you two were..."

Ji Yunhuan thought that her going out with Qi Cheng was a secret, but she didn’t expect the second sister-in-law to know everything, "He told you?"

"Qi Cheng didn’t tell me." The second sister-in-law explained, "I guessed it myself. That day, when Grandpa asked who Qi Cheng went out with, Qi Cheng said he went out with Ms. Xingwei. If I hadn’t met Ms. Xingwei before and knew that she didn’t go out with Qi Cheng, I might have been fooled by him."

"So how did you guess that I was the one who went out with Qi Cheng?"

"Yangyang told me." The second sister-in-law smiled, "Only you could persuade Qi Cheng to come home and pick Yangyang up to meet you. Even though it’s been two years, Qi Cheng still dearly loves you. Despite the deep hurt you caused him, almost costing him his life, he always keeps you in his heart."

The second sister-in-law’s words made Ji Yunhuan’s heart ache again.

After Ms. Wen Xuan talked to her that day, she had become more clear-headed, not wanting to yearn for Qi Cheng too much.

But the second sister-in-law’s words reminded her of the times they spent together by the sea, like a dream, so beautiful it felt unreal.

Seeing Ji Yunhuan was moved, the second sister-in-law curiously asked, "When you separated from Qi Cheng and caused such a commotion, now, are you thinking of coming back?"

Ji Yunhuan said, "I’m not."

Apart from denial, she had no other choice.

She couldn’t shamelessly admit she wanted to be with Qi Cheng.

Simply because she was a woman who valued her dignity too much.

Even if she was with Qi Cheng, she would never admit it in front of the Qi Family. Because she knew she could never return to the Qi Family in this lifetime.

"I actually came to see you today because I have something to say." The second sister-in-law didn’t wait for Ji Yunhuan’s consent and continued, "I don’t have children. In the future, I probably can’t hope to have any. So, I hope you can let me have Yangyang."

"What?"

Ji Yunhuan was stunned.

She looked at the second sister-in-law in disbelief.

When the second sister-in-law asked Ji Yunhuan to let her have the child, she spoke calmly, as if it wasn’t a child, but a cabbage.

Perhaps realizing this reasoning was abrupt, she awkwardly explained, "I’ve been with Yangyang for two years. We’ve formed a deep bond. He’s always seen me as his mother. To me, he’s like a piece of my flesh. So, I really can’t bear to part with him."

Although the second sister-in-law’s words were reasonable, asking to let her have Yangyang was something one wouldn’t expect such an understanding person to say.

Ji Yunhuan said, "I know it’s been hard for you to take care of him, but Yangyang is my child. Asking me to let you have him, I really don’t know how to respond."

As a mother, if she were to say, I’ll let you have my child, she would be less than an animal!

Doing so would make her no different from parents who sell their own children.

Two years ago, she made a choice no mother should make. But after seeing Yangyang this time, she truly regretted it.
