Chapter 409: Chapter 409: Intentionally Torturing Them_1

"Not hungry." He had just eaten two pieces of cake. There was always enough food at home.

"Not hungry? I’m starving. Grandma made something delicious. Let me take you down to eat." Without asking Ji Yunhuan, the second sister-in-law picked up Yangyang and walked out while saying, "Come here, little guy, give Mommy a kiss."

Yangyang kissed the second sister-in-law’s face affectionately, like a mother and son with a close bond.

Ji Yunhuan watched the two of them, resentment flashed in her heart, but she quickly reacted. How was it only like that?

Yangyang had always regarded the second sister-in-law as his real mother.

Only she was the bad aunt in Yangyang’s heart, unfamiliar and unlikeable.

Leilei was watching from the side, stuffing a piece of cake into her mouth, and said unclearly, "Second Aunt treats Yangyang too well."

Ji Yunhuan lowered her head, seeing her face full of resentment, and couldn’t help but laugh, "Doesn’t your mom treat you well?"

"Mom hasn’t been paying attention to me recently." Leilei said gloomily.

Ji Yunhuan sat down, looking at her, "How are your parents getting along lately?"

Since leaving the Qi Family, she hadn’t cared about her elder brother and sister-in-law’s issues. Now seeing Leilei, she was somewhat interested.

Ji Yunhuan’s question troubled Leilei. She said gloomily, "I don’t know."

"Don’t know?"

"Sometimes they argue," Leilei said gloomily to Ji Yunhuan.

"Why do they argue?"

There had to be a reason for arguments.

"Seems like it’s because a man named Fang always pesters Mommy." At this point, Leilei was very angry, "That bad man!"

"..." Ji Yunhuan never expected that back then, her elder brother and sister-in-law had fierce fights over Ye Suya. Now they were always at odds because of a man named Fang Zihuan.

Leilei and Ji Yunhuan were still chatting in the toy room when Qi Cheng came up, "Come down to eat."

Ji Yunhuan nodded and stood up. Leilei, holding her hand, carefully supported Ji Yunhuan, cherishing the fact that she was pregnant.

Ji Yunhuan was amused by her actions, "Thank you, Leilei."

Her cautious demeanor was filled with concern, much more mature compared to Leilei three years ago.

Leilei held Ji Yunhuan’s hand down the stairs. On the sofa downstairs, Yangyang was sitting on the second sister-in-law’s lap. The second sister-in-law was chatting with Lin Xiang, and their relationship seemed very good.

Seeing Ji Yunhuan, Lin Xiang’s face darkened.

She hadn’t expected Ji Yunhuan to be there too.

The second sister-in-law greeted, "Yunhuan, come sit here!"

Ji Yunhuan’s gaze fell on Lin Xiang. Although it was at the Qi Family’s home and Lin Xiang wouldn’t show her a bad face, sitting with Lin Xiang would make her uncomfortable.

So she declined the second sister-in-law’s invitation, "No need."

Qi Mother had already instructed the servants to prepare dinner and said to Leilei, "Leilei, call your brother in."

"Okay." Leilei nodded, let go of Ji Yunhuan’s hand, and ran outside.

Qi Mo was still sitting by the flowerbed outside, appearing melancholy like most teenagers.

After a while, Leilei brought Qi Mo in.

Qi Cheng had already led Ji Yunhuan into the dining room. Qi Mother said, "Everyone sit down and eat!"

"Time to eat!" Yangyang heard the word "eat" and beamed with joy.

Of course, he was this happy because the second sister-in-law was there.

Ji Yunhuan recalled that the last time Yangyang was at her place, he hadn’t laughed like this all day.

The family sat down. The others who hadn’t returned yet, they didn’t wait for.

Qi Cheng sat next to Qi Mother, with Ji Yunhuan on the other side.

Lin Xiang sat near Qi Mother. The table was rectangular, and her position was directly opposite Qi Cheng.

Opposite Ji Yunhuan sat Yangyang. Yangyang’s attention was entirely on the second sister-in-law, rarely giving Ji Yunhuan a glance.

Although the atmosphere seemed harmonious, there were undoubtedly some odd points.

After all, what was Ji Yunhuan’s status now?

She certainly shouldn’t be sitting here having dinner.

The second sister-in-law looked at Ji Yunhuan and curiously asked Qi Cheng, "Qi Cheng, bringing Yunhuan home. Are you two planning to reconcile?"

"Yunhuan is my guest." It was Qi Mother who spoke, giving Ji Yunhuan a cold glance.

To this day, Ji Yunhuan still didn’t understand why Qi Mother brought her here.

But it was definitely not just to let her see Yangyang.

Yangyang was well taken care of by the second sister-in-law, not needing her at all.

The second sister-in-law was slightly surprised to hear Qi Mother say this and smiled, "I see."

Lin Xiang said, "Brother Qi Cheng, I haven’t seen you around lately. What have you been up to? Grandpa called me last night asking about you. I didn’t even know how to answer him."

Qi Cheng glanced at Lin Xiang, clearly understanding that the woman was warning him.

If he continued treating Lin Xiang this way, she would definitely have something to say.

Qi Mother said, "Since he’s back, he will spend time with you. Tomorrow morning, Qi Cheng is going on a business trip. You should go with him."

Ji Yunhuan was eating her meal when she heard Qi Mother’s words. She couldn’t help but pause. Surprisingly, Qi Cheng showed no reaction, seemingly unbothered by Qi Mother’s suggestion.

Lin Xiang’s face lit up with joy, "Really? Brother Qi Cheng, can I go?"

Qi Cheng glanced at Lin Xiang coldly, "No."

Lin Xiang looked disappointed. Qi Mother glanced at Qi Cheng but said nothing.

After eating, everyone dispersed to their own activities, leaving only Ji Yunhuan, Qi Cheng, and Qi Mother in the living room.

Qi Mother said, "I’ve had the room next to mine tidied up. Ji Yunhuan will stay there from now on."

Ji Yunhuan paused and looked at Qi Mother.

Qi Cheng said, "She can stay in my room."

"Stay in your room?" Qi Mother said, "Don’t forget I invited her here."

"Mom, do you really need to do this?" Qi Cheng was getting angry.

Ji Yunhuan, fearing he would argue with Qi Mother, interjected, "I can stay anywhere."

"No," Qi Cheng said firmly, "You’re pregnant. I don’t want you staying elsewhere."

"Fine! The two of you can switch. Let Ji Yunhuan stay in your room, and you stay elsewhere," Qi Mother said, "Do you plan to live together? This isn’t the place for that. Lin Xiang is your fiancée. Are you trying to make her uncomfortable?"

Considering Lin Xiang, she forbade Qi Cheng from staying with Ji Yunhuan.

Seeing his mother’s firm stance, Qi Cheng said, "Fine, I’ll stay in another room."

"Someone take Ms. Ji to rest." Qi Mother instructed.

Qi Cheng said, "I’ll take her."

"You stay. I have something to discuss with you." Qi Mother explicitly didn’t want to see him and Ji Yunhuan show affection.

A servant came over and led Ji Yunhuan away. Qi Cheng watched her leave but had to stay behind.

Once Ji Yunhuan left, he looked at his mother, "Did you bring Ji Yunhuan here just to torment us?"
