Chapter 39: Chapter 39 Injured Him_1

The moment he met this woman, everything about her fascinated him.

The love had already filled his chest long ago.

And the only sanity he retained was Su Molang.

Now, the alcohol had burned up all his rationality. Without much hesitation, he wanted to make her his own.

Being kissed so hard that her mouth hurt, Ji Yunhuan frowned. How could she have imagined he would act like this when drunk?

If she had known earlier, she should have left him to be taken care of by the servants.

Qi Cheng had given her so much, yet she didn’t want to give anything in return.

This made her even despise herself.

Still in the bathtub, she suddenly heard a knock on the door. At first, she even thought, could it be that Qi Cheng still didn’t want to let go of him at this point?

But soon, the urgent voice of the female housekeeper came from outside the door, "Madam, Madam, are you inside?"

Seeing her call out so urgently, Ji Yunhuan put on a robe and walked outside. After she went in, Qi Cheng, who had passed out, was already lying properly on the bed, put there by the female housekeeper. There were also several other servants in the bedroom.

Everyone was wide-eyed and looking at her strangely, as if Ji Yunhuan was some kind of criminal.

Ji Yunhuan looked at such a spectacle and had a bad feeling in her heart. She asked the female housekeeper, "Why are you calling me?"

"Sir is injured. What happened?" The tone was accusatory.

"Injured?" Ji Yunhuan glanced at the person on the bed. The servants were anxiously waiting for an answer.

Ji Yunhuan remembered the heavy knock from before. At that time, she was just trying to get away and didn’t think much about it. Looking at it now, it indeed might have caused him to get hurt.

But...

Thinking of the female housekeeper’s protection of Qi Cheng, and the anxious looks of the servants at this moment, she definitely wouldn’t admit it was she who injured Qi Cheng. Of course, it was even more impossible to say that Qi Cheng wanted to do such things to her and that was why she acted.

Pretending to be unaware, she said, "I don’t know!"

The housekeeper didn’t believe her nonsense. After all, she had taken care of Qi Cheng for so many years and never dared to let Qi Cheng get hurt. As a result, she merely went to the kitchen to make some sobering soup for Qi Cheng and came back to find Qi Cheng, who had been with Ji Yunhuan, in such a state.

She angrily asked Ji Yunhuan, "You don’t know? How can you not know? There were only you and sir alone in the room. The injury on his head is obviously caused by you."

The servants seemed to agree as well.

Ji Yunhuan frowned. Although what the other party said was true, she didn’t want to die.

She put on a serious face, "What do you mean? Did you see me hit him with your own eyes? I was inside taking a bath, and only heard you knocking on the door. How should I know what happened to him? Couldn’t it be that he hit it himself?"

After all, Qi Cheng was drunk. Whether he knew what happened or not had to wait until he woke up.

Otherwise...

If she admitted now, with the housekeeper’s attitude, if it was confirmed that she had injured Qi Cheng, she would not be spared.

The housekeeper was not convinced by Ji Yunhuan’s words but was momentarily stunned by Ji Yunhuan’s assertiveness.

Because Ji Yunhuan had a similar aura to Qi Cheng.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ji Yunhuan walked to the bedside and glanced at Qi Cheng. After all, it was her fault, and she felt somewhat guilty.

The housekeeper, who had come back to her senses, was afraid Ji Yunhuan would do something to Qi Cheng and quickly stood in front of her.

Ji Yunhuan knew she was guarded against herself and also knew that her previous argument was not convincing at all. Whether Qi Cheng hit himself or was hurt by her could be understood from the scene by looking at the housekeeper’s heart.

But Ji Yunhuan was too strong, and without evidence, she couldn’t do anything to Ji Yunhuan.

However, she wouldn’t give Ji Yunhuan another chance to hurt Qi Cheng.

Ji Yunhuan frowned, "What do you mean by this?"

"Even if the injury on sir’s head was not caused by you, you are still responsible. I reminded Madam repeatedly before leaving to take good care of sir. You even found me nagging. You knew sir was drunk and didn’t take good care of him. Is this what a wife should do?" The housekeeper was genuinely furious.

Whoever dared to let Qi Cheng get hurt was her enemy.

This was the only creed from her many years as a housekeeper.

Ji Yunhuan was unsettled by her words, but fortunately, she had seen such scenes many times.

She calmly said, "I admit, I was negligent. But... instead of spending time pursuing my responsibility, wouldn’t it be better to focus more on Mr. Qi?"

"Of course, I know that. No need for your reminder. Tonight I will take care of Mr. Qi. Madam, go sleep in the guest room!" The housekeeper glanced at the unconscious Qi Cheng, feeling heartbroken.

Her attitude full of hostility made Ji Yunhuan uncomfortable.

And at the same time a bit guilty.
