Chapter 362: Chapter 362: You Like Her Too, Don’t You? (2)_1

He clearly felt guilty towards Chenchen and wanted to make it up to her!

But why, when Qi Cheng said those words, did he feel so nervous?

Seeing Bai Liyan’s expression, Qi Cheng knew he had hit the mark.

He didn’t want to waste words with Bai Liyan and walked straight out of the swimming pool.

In the living room, Aunt kept trying to reason with Ji Yunhuan: "I’m just punishing that little tramp for you, you must help me!"

"..." Ji Yunhuan stayed silent.

Auntie feared she might have caused big trouble, hastily added: "You and Dr. Bai get along so well, talk to him, he will certainly help you. Help me, Yunhuan, we are family..."

Ji Yunhuan interrupted her: "You wish for me to be connected to Qi Cheng, yet also with Dr. Bai. What exactly do you take me for? I told you when I came that I have nothing more to do with Qi Cheng and that you should leave quickly, but what did you do? You’ve embarrassed me thoroughly, making it so that I can’t hold my head up."

She wasn’t afraid of losing face in front of others but desperately wanted to keep the last shred of dignity in front of Qi Cheng.

Yet, it was all ruined by Ji Min and her mother.

Recalling everything that happened today, she wished she could find a hole to hide in.

Even now, she couldn’t believe it was all real.

She kept reassuring herself, hoping it was all just a nightmare, that she would wake up and it would all be gone.

Qi Cheng, who had just left with Bai Liyan, came back in.

Bai Liyan was not with him.

Ji Yunhuan thought Bai Liyan would return first.

Looking blankly at Qi Cheng’s cold face, she felt inexplicably nervous seeing him.

Before she could react, Qi Cheng had already walked up to her and grabbed her arm...

She was stunned, intending to resist, but heard Qi Cheng say: "Come with me."

Her mind went blank, throbbing, as Qi Cheng, who she used to loathe to even glance at, suddenly pulled her hand.

Under the surprised gaze of everyone, Qi Cheng dragged Ji Yunhuan out the door; she was forced to follow him, walking through the corridor...

"Where are you taking me?"

Could Bai Liyan have told him about the child?

Did he know the child wasn’t Bai Liyan’s, which made him act this way?

Ji Yunhuan had always not wanted Qi Cheng to know about the child, now she felt a bit panicked.

If Qi Cheng really knew, what would she do?

Thinking of his fiancée Lin Xiang and Xie Xingwei, who bore his child, her mind was a mess.

Qi Cheng pushed open the door to the woodworking room, throwing Ji Yunhuan inside.

Upon entering, Ji Yunhuan was shocked at the many woodworking models all around, incredibly, they were all of her...

The scene before her almost rendered her speechless. She truly hadn’t expected the woodworking room she hadn’t seen in years to look like this, though it had hardly changed from before, the rows of wood carvings...

She didn’t need to look closely to recognize the statues were of her, Qi Cheng’s craftsmanship had always been excellent, lifelike.

The door behind her shut forcefully, Ji Yunhuan could hear the slightly panting breaths behind her. Her back stiffened, instincts told her Qi Cheng must have found out. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have suddenly brought her here.

"I have something to ask you," Qi Cheng said.

He didn’t care about the many exposed Ji Yunhuans before him.

Indeed, he thought of her every day, missed her so much. Yet he was afraid of her knowing how obsessed he was with her!

But now, he suddenly seemed indifferent.

Just now, when talking to Bai Liyan, a bold idea had formed in his mind. He just wanted to resolve the doubts in his heart.

Ji Yunhuan took a step forward, turned around, and stood at a relatively safe distance before looking at him, "What do you want to ask?"

Nervousness caused her heart to race.

He really knew...

Qi Cheng asked: "Did Xie Xingwei tell you about it, or was it Bai Liyan?"

Qi Cheng’s question momentarily froze Ji Yunhuan’s mind. She looked at him, then her eyes quickly turned cold, "Why are you asking this?"

"Was it?" Qi Cheng pressed further.

"No." It wasn’t, it was Xie Xingwei who said it herself.

But she didn’t understand why he was asking. Would knowing change anything?

Qi Cheng believed she was lying, seemingly convinced about the truth, "Was it Bai Liyan who told you Xie Xingwei was pregnant with my child, which made you think of leaving me, and why you did something to betray me, right?"

Mentioning Xie Xingwei’s pregnancy made Ji Yunhuan feel uncomfortable.

She didn’t understand how Qi Cheng had the nerve to bring it up.

Ji Yunhuan scoffed derisively, "Do you think asking me that now has any meaning? Whether Bai Liyan said it or not, what difference does it make?"

"Of course, it matters." Qi Cheng walked toward Ji Yunhuan.

Watching him approach, Ji Yunhuan instinctively wanted to flee. To not frighten her, Qi Cheng halted. Looking at the woman in front of him, his heart raced with anticipation, desperately wanting the answer he desired from her.

As he moved closer, Ji Yunhuan’s breathing became irregular, "I don’t know what difference it makes."

"If Bai Liyan said it, it means he was meddling, he couldn’t stand seeing us happy. It’s his trickery, he was driving a wedge between us! You didn’t leave me voluntarily. It wasn’t a deliberate betrayal. Right?" He really didn’t want to admit, despite treating her so well, she still chose to betray him, lying with Bai Liyan, even having his child.

Hearing Qi Cheng’s words, Ji Yunhuan was stunned, "Trickery?"

She didn’t know why but hearing Qi Cheng’s words, she felt not ridicule but sorrow. His eyes showed a trace of longing, a trace that made her heart ache.

Clearly, she had said she was pregnant with Bai Liyan’s child, yet he...

Came to ask these things...

Ultimately, he just wanted to find an excuse for her ’betrayal’?

Ji Yunhuan looked into his eyes, coldly said: "Even if that were the case, what then? I even have a child with him."

"As long as it was not voluntary, I am willing to forgive you." Because he truly didn’t know how else to face her.

These days had been torturous for him.

Looking at Yunhuan before him, he just wanted to hold her in his arms, bring her back to his side. Even if she was carrying Bai Liyan’s child, as long as her heart belonged to him, he was willing to forgive this one mistake.

After all, she had misunderstood first.

To him, this was unprecedented. For other women, even speaking a few words with other men wouldn’t be forgiven.
