Chapter 421: Chapter 421 He Finally Came Back_1

"Second sister-in-law’s anger welled up.

She had held it in for a long time.

"When did I ever ask Qi Cheng to talk to Mom about this?" Ji Yunhuan looked at her sister-in-law confusedly, then glanced at Yangyang, feeling very innocent. "You’ve been on a business trip these days, that’s the only time I’ve had the chance to be with him. Otherwise, I never even get a chance to spend a moment with him."

"Business trip?" The second sister-in-law laughed. "Do you really think I wanted to go on that business trip? It was Mom who forced me to leave. She made me and your second brother go together. Otherwise, would I leave Yangyang at home for so long without checking on him?"

"..." Ji Yunhuan had no idea about any of this.

So, the only reason she had the opportunity to be with Yangyang during this time was because of Qi Cheng? Qi Cheng hadn’t shown up in front of her all this time because he made a deal with Mother Qi?

The second sister-in-law continued, "You indeed have a way to get Qi Cheng to help you. Mom has always favored Qi Cheng. But that’s it. In the future, Qi Cheng will marry Lin Xiang. You will never have a chance with him. Yangyang will always be mine, he will have nothing to do with you."

Ji Yunhuan looked at her sister-in-law, who was full of dislike towards her. "Second sister-in-law, why must you be like this? Even if you like Yangyang, he is my child."

"Is he? Your child? How many days have you actually raised him? When he was sick in the hospital, the one who stayed by his side was me, not you! What kind of mother are you? You never cared for him since he was small, and now you’re here to take him away!" Since they had already fallen out, the second sister-in-law didn’t hold back against Ji Yunhuan.

Listening to this, Ji Yunhuan felt a deep pain in her heart. Yangyang was right there, and the second sister-in-law was saying this on purpose for him to hear. Indeed, she was an unfit mother. But hearing her second sister-in-law say this, she still instinctively defended herself, "But he was born from me!"

No matter how unfit she was, she was still Yangyang’s mother.

The second sister-in-law heard her words and smiled lightly. "The most shameless thing in this world is a mother like you who gave birth but didn’t raise her child. He was just a result of your momentary pleasure with a man, not something you genuinely wanted."

"..." Ji Yunhuan’s eyes widened. She didn’t expect her second sister-in-law to be so vicious with her words.

Seeing Ji Yunhuan staring at her, the second sister-in-law didn’t hold back, "What? You think I’m wrong? If that’s not the case, then how could you heartlessly leave him back then?"

As they argued, Yangyang, standing nearby, looked at them with wide eyes.

His eyes were full of confusion.

It seemed he was trying hard to understand the meaning of their words.

Ji Yunhuan glanced at her baby, her heart aching.

"I’m sorry." This was not directed at her second sister-in-law, but at Yangyang.

She was the most unfit mother in this world.

The second sister-in-law took Yangyang and his things, holding Yangyang as she walked out the door.

Yangyang, resting his head on his second sister-in-law’s shoulder, didn’t forget to wave goodbye to Ji Yunhuan.

Ji Yunhuan knew he was waving to say goodbye to the baby in her belly, but seeing him like this, she couldn’t help but tear up.

There is no medicine for regret in this world. Many things cannot be chosen anew.

She waved to Yangyang, watching her second sister-in-law carry him out the door, then she powerlessly sat back into the chair.

At night, Ji Yunhuan lay on the bed, Qi Cheng still hadn’t called her today.

This had been the case for a while; most of the time, it was her calling him.

Probably because Yangyang wasn’t by her side tonight, the feeling of emptiness in her heart was growing more obvious.

She wanted to call him, but after looking at the phone, she gathered courage several times but still didn’t make the call.

She lay in bed, her hand resting on her belly. Suddenly, a deep sadness overcame her.

She wished at least one person could be by her side.

But at this time, where was Qi Cheng?

Was he really, as others said, with Lin Xiang all the time?

Did he ever think of her?

If he did, why wouldn’t he even call her?

Tears fell uncontrollably. She pulled the quilt over her head, closing her eyes.

She didn’t know how long it had been when she vaguely heard someone whisper by her ear, "I’m back."

A hand gently caressed her face with tenderness and pity.

Ji Yunhuan slept deeply, and when she woke up, the room lights were off, and it was completely dark. She reached out and touched a warm arm, realizing suddenly that there was someone next to her.

The presence was familiar.

She got up, reaching for the switch. In the next second, the room lights turned on as if understanding her intent.

Qi Cheng looked at her, "Awake?"

Seeing him, confirming she wasn’t dreaming, Ji Yunhuan couldn’t tell if she felt sad or happy, "When did you get here?"

His clothes were still the same, a shirt and trousers.

"Not long ago. When I came in, you were already asleep, so I didn’t disturb you." He looked at Ji Yunhuan. Her eyes were a bit red as if she had been crying.

Seeing him, she inexplicably found the light in the room glaring. She lowered her head, "I need to use the bathroom."

Ji Yunhuan got out of bed and walked into the bathroom.

Qi Cheng watched her back, then stood up and followed. He opened the door and went inside, finding her washing her face at the sink.

She knew she had cried and must look terrible.

Qi Cheng walked over, hugged her from behind, gently leaning his head on her shoulder, "I’m sorry. I’ve been busy these days and haven’t come to see you."

Ji Yunhuan looked at the mirror, seeing his head against hers, "Why did you come now?"

"I heard from Aunt Liu that you were feeling down." Qi Cheng looked at her reflection with tender eyes. "I was worried, so I came to see you. Didn’t I tell you to take good care of the baby? How will you do that if you’re like this?"

Ji Yunhuan remained silent.

Qi Cheng said, "Alright, it’s late. Let’s go back to bed."

Ji Yunhuan followed him out.

Back in bed, Qi Cheng lay beside her. He wasn’t in a hurry to turn off the lights. "How’s it been with Yangyang these days?" he asked.

Ji Yunhuan looked at Qi Cheng, "Was all this your arrangement?"

She had thought her second sister-in-law just happened to go on a business trip, giving her this chance, until she heard what her second sister-in-law said tonight.

Qi Cheng said, "It wasn’t exactly arrangements. I just asked Mom to give you more time with Yangyang."

The second sister-in-law’s attitude, although he hadn’t seen it firsthand, he had heard from Aunt Liu. He knew the second sister-in-law wouldn’t want to let Ji Yunhuan be with Yangyang. That’s why he asked his mother for help.

In this family, his mother’s word always carried weight.

Ji Yunhuan looked at Qi Cheng. It had been a while since she saw him, and he seemed even more handsome.

Looking at him, she knew that getting Mother Qi to agree to this must have come with conditions. "The condition is you getting engaged to Lin Xiang, right?"
