Chapter 43: Chapter 43 Go to Him Actively_1
Xie Xingwei looked at Qi Cheng, who was carefully applying the medicine for her, feeling a bit uncomfortable. "Actually, I could have done it myself."
Moreover, with so many servants at home, she did not expect Qi Cheng to do it himself.
Just now she thought that Ji Yunhuan might just be talking nonsense, but now, in the blink of an eye, Qi Cheng was so gentle with her.
"Miss Ji Yunhuan." Ji Yunhuan was pondering how she should react when she heard Bai Liyan’s voice behind her. He was wearing a white coat and looking at her gently.
Ji Yunhuan was stunned for a moment, then she politely said, "Dr. Bai."
This version of Bai Liyan looked more reliable than his usual self.
He gently said, "Just in time, your brother’s medical equipment has arrived. Shall we go take a look together?"
"Really?" Ji Yunhuan followed behind him.
Next to the main building was a small building with only two floors. It wasn’t very spacious but appeared extremely exquisite. Compared to the main building, it was much quieter here. The sea of flowers at the entrance made the scenery more pleasant.
Several transport trucks were parked there, with people unloading the equipment from the trucks.
Since the day he promised Chen Chen, Qi Cheng had been preparing for this.
Bai Liyan’s melodious voice sounded beside her, "Once everything is set up, your brother can move in here."
This good news instantly uplifted Ji Yunhuan’s mood. As long as Qi Cheng had this kind of heart, marrying him wouldn’t be a loss. If he was with other women, it would be just as well. At least she wouldn’t feel so guilty about forcing herself to reciprocate his kindness.
Anyway, she would never fall in love with him!
The staff worked busily all morning, and only after Bai Liyan personally tested and confirmed the equipment was working properly did they finish setting up the room for Chen Chen.
Ji Yunhuan was a bit hungry, having skipped breakfast.
She joined Bai Liyan and his assistants for lunch and realized that Qi Cheng was not there.
"Where is he?" Ji Yunhuan asked after the meal.
The housekeeper replied, "Mr. Qi went out with Ms. Xie Xingwei."
Out of consideration for Ji Yunhuan’s feelings, the housekeeper spoke softly.
Ji Yunhuan frowned, "Wasn’t he injured?"
"Mr. Qi said it was just a minor injury and no need to rest, and Ms. Xie would take good care of him. Unlike Madam..." The female housekeeper also had complaints. She felt the woman Qi Cheng married didn’t treat him well at all.
Ji Yunhuan knew Qi Cheng was angry again.
She gave him a light knock. Considering his pettiness, he would probably be mad for a long time.
-
"Sis, didn’t brother-in-law come with you?" Since receiving gifts from Qi Cheng, Chen Chen’s attitude towards him had improved a lot. For several consecutive days, it was Ji Yunhuan visiting him alone. He couldn’t help but ask.
After Qi Cheng went out that day, Ji Yunhuan had not seen him again.
Being asked by Chen Chen, Ji Yunhuan couldn’t help but tell a little lie, "He’s very busy. You know, someone like him doesn’t have much free time, right? Chen Chen, don’t be so greedy. But if you want to see him, I can ask him to visit when he’s free."
Although she said that, she knew that continuing the stalemate with Qi Cheng was not a good thing at all.
If he kept sulking with her, Chen Chen would have to stay in the hospital indefinitely, making it impossible for him to be discharged.
So, after returning from the hospital, Ji Yunhuan asked, "Where has Mr. Qi been staying recently?"
This was the first time in so many days that she had asked about Qi Cheng, and the housekeeper said, "Has Madam finally learned to care about Mr. Qi?"
Ji Yunhuan looked at her and felt she was being unreasonable, coming to ask the female housekeeper about it.
She helplessly shook her head, "Hmph, asking you is pointless. Just pretend I never asked!"
"I don’t know Mr. Qi’s whereabouts, but someone surely knows." Deep down, the female housekeeper didn’t want to see Ji Yunhuan and Qi Cheng continuing this stalemate, so she spoke up.
"Who?"
"Dr. Bai."
"Then I’ll contact him."
Last time when Bai Liyan was around, she took his number, mainly for consultations regarding Chen Chen. Unexpectedly, her first call to Bai Liyan was to inquire about Qi Cheng.
"Do you want to see him?" Bai Liyan’s voice had a hint of a smile.
At that moment, he was sitting in a bar, watching the man across from him drink with a sullen face. It was clear that Qi Cheng was in a bad mood. After all, who wouldn’t be upset if they married a wife only to fight, and she didn’t even ask about him?
"He hasn’t come home for several days. If it’s convenient, Dr. Bai, could you ask?"
"You should come in person!" Bai Liyan gave her the address.
Ji Yunhuan drove there herself. The bar had a closed sign hanging, and seeing this, she knew Qi Cheng was inside.
He had always been this way, disliking disturbances. Wherever he went, the place would be closed for him.
She pushed the door open and went in. The server saw her and asked her purpose. She said, "I’m here to see Qi Cheng."
"But..." The server looked troubled.
Ji Yunhuan said, "I just arranged it with Dr. Bai. You can ask."
After confirming Ji Yunhuan’s identity upstairs, they finally let her go up.
Bai Liyan was waiting for her in the corridor. Seeing her approach, he smiled, "He’s inside. You can go in yourself. I have things to attend to, so I’ll leave first."
Ji Yunhuan took a deep breath, pushed the door open, and walked in. She saw Qi Cheng sitting on the sofa. The bar was illuminated with soft lighting. He sat on the center sofa with some drinks in front of him.
He crossed his legs, elegantly sitting there, listening to the violin music from the stage.
From where she entered, she could see his side face. Ji Yunhuan looked at him, imagining the scene of seeing him.
Since he hadn’t returned home, he must still be mad at her.
Just walking over to him and apologizing seemed pointless.
And with her pride, she would never set herself up for rejection.
So she didn’t walk towards Qi Cheng but strode towards the stage.
The violinist currently playing was taken aback seeing Ji Yunhuan approach the stage. Ji Yunhuan politely signaled, borrowing the violin.
Qi Cheng had drunk a bit, but not too much. However, just thinking about Ji Yunhuan didn’t put him in a good mood.
Because of Bai Liyan’s words, he wanted to avoid reacting to his feelings for that woman. But the more he avoided it, the clearer it became.
He closed his eyes, hearing the jarring violin sound from the stage, he irritably opened his eyes.
The violinist who had been playing was temporarily offstage. Under the dazzling lights, only Ji Yunhuan, in a black long dress, stood there. It was unclear when she had entered or gotten there, but her graceful figure was captivating...
Clearly, the jarring sound earlier had come from her.
The musicians beside the stage had widened their eyes, unsure how to react.
