Chapter 431: Chapter 431: Fulfilling Them_1

"Admit defeat?" Qi Cheng thought of how his grandfather had just been resolute about getting rid of the child in Ji Yunhuan’s belly and laughed lightly. "Will admitting defeat work? Will grandfather let Yunhuan go if I admit defeat? Even if I admit defeat, in the end, I’d just be like you, unable to be with the person I love for the rest of my life. If grandfather wants to drive us to our deaths, that’s fine. Dying together is better than living in pain."

Ji Yunhuan looked at Qi Cheng in despair. When she heard him talk about dying together, her tears almost fell.

He had always been lofty, never so helpless before.

But she also understood that in front of grandfather, no one could resist.

Everything he had was given by the Qi Family. Even if he wanted to resist, he was powerless.

His willingness to die with her was probably the best promise he could give her.

Because of his words, her fear suddenly lessened greatly.

Indeed!

If he wasn’t afraid of death, what did she have to fear?

Grandfather heard Qi Cheng’s words and said with bitter disappointment: "How is Lin Xiang any worse? How is she worse than this woman surnamed Ji? Have you forgotten how you almost died in the hospital back then? Did this woman even show you any mercy then? Qi Cheng, don’t be unreasonable. I’m here today because you are my grandson. If it weren’t for my love for you, I wouldn’t care who you are with."

"Since grandfather says forcing me and Yunhuan apart is out of love and treating me as your grandson, then I’d rather not be associated with the Qi Family anymore. The Qi Family has so many children. Even if there is one less of me, it doesn’t count as much." Qi Cheng knew that, in the end, his grandfather still loved him.

As long as grandfather loved him, he naturally couldn’t watch him die.

Hearing Qi Cheng’s words, grandfather was almost furious to the point of spitting blood. He asked incredulously: "Just for this woman surnamed Ji, you want to sever ties with the Qi Family?"

"Yes." Qi Cheng was extraordinarily determined. He broke free from the nearby guards, walked to Ji Yunhuan’s side, and held her tightly. This woman was his everything. He would never let go now.

He knew that if he let go here, he would really lose Ji Yunhuan. In the future, he would have to live according to grandfather’s way.

He looked at Ji Yunhuan and said helplessly: "I’m sorry, Yunhuan. I said I would protect you and the child, but since grandfather insists on separating us, this is the only path I can choose. I just hope you won’t hate me!"

Ji Yunhuan could see his powerlessness, despair, and deep affection in his eyes.

She nodded, tears falling down. "I won’t hate you. In this world, it’s always the weak who are preyed on by the strong. We can’t resist; we can only accept our fate."

Because of his stubbornness, she didn’t even dare to persuade him to let her go.

She didn’t dare speak, for fear of betraying his deep affection.

Big Brother didn’t expect Qi Cheng to be so resolute. Qi Cheng made a completely different choice from what he had made back then.

At that time, to protect Ye Suya from harm, Big Brother chose to leave. He preferred to watch the woman he loved leave him rather than see her die.

But Qi Cheng was willing to risk everything to be with Yunhuan.

Hearing their conversation, grandfather’s face turned livid. He said to Big Brother: "Look at them, can I soften my heart?"

"But, grandfather, even if you get rid of the child, even if you kill Ji Yunhuan, it won’t help, will it?"

"Right, it won’t help." Grandfather laughed coldly. He was truly disappointed in Qi Cheng. He looked at Qi Cheng coldly. "You want to die with her, but I won’t let you have your way. Dying is the easiest thing in this world. You want to be with her? Fine, I’ll fulfill your wish! You want to sever ties with me? I’ll fulfill that too! If you really want to be with Ji Yunhuan, fine. From today on, you, Qi Cheng, have no relationship with the Qi Family. I will take back everything you got from the Qi Family all these years!"

Hearing grandfather say this, Qi Cheng’s face showed no emotion. Wealth and status meant nothing to him.

Grandfather said to Big Brother: "Handle everything. I want to see how he can still be so reckless without the Qi Family."

Big Brother nodded. Anyway, it meant that Ji Yunhuan’s child was safe.

Taking away everything from Qi Cheng was Qi Cheng’s own choice. There was no other way.

Grandfather looked at Qi Cheng and said: "I’m giving you the last chance. Are you sure you want to be with this woman?"

Qi Cheng said: "I don’t care about death, let alone anything else."

"Very well." Grandfather said, "Remember, you said it. Don’t regret it in the future."

After speaking, he stood up and walked out the door.

The guards also followed him out.

Ji Yunhuan was still in Qi Cheng’s arms. Qi Cheng didn’t look at them; his gaze fell on her face.

Ji Yunhuan looked up at him, "Qi Cheng."

There were still tears on her face. Qi Cheng reached out to wipe them away.

Although the room had quieted down, remembering the previous scene and the syringe that hadn’t yet been injected into her body, she was somehow more scared than before.

Qi Cheng held Ji Yunhuan tightly, lowered his head, and kissed her lips.

Not only was she scared, but he was also scared. He was afraid he wouldn’t be able to protect her and the child in her belly.

Although he had resolutely decided not to separate from her just now, that was because he wanted to gamble on his position in grandfather’s heart.

He knew that grandfather wouldn’t be so ruthless, so he took a gamble. Only by doing this could he stay with Ji Yunhuan.

But that didn’t mean he was as indifferent as he appeared.

When the doctor was about to inject the drug, his heart almost stopped.

He kissed Ji Yunhuan hard, trying to forget what had just happened. After grandfather and his men left, the maids in the house were still there, but it was as if they didn’t exist.

He held Ji Yunhuan tightly and kissed her for about ten minutes before slowly letting her go.

He looked at her apologetically, "I’m sorry, Yunhuan. You must have thought I was ruthless just now, right?"

She didn’t make a sound.

When grandfather said he was going to abort her child, she really hoped Qi Cheng could be rational and not go against grandfather.

But Qi Cheng hadn’t.

He preferred to lose this child rather than separate from her.

Understanding his determination, she didn’t hate him.

It was just that their thoughts were different.

But, undeniably, he loved her. After all, he not only went against grandfather for her but also gave up everything for her.

Qi Cheng gently held her hand. "I’m sorry. I promise you, this is the only time, and also the last time. In the future, no matter what happens, I won’t let such a thing happen again. But this time, I had no choice. This was our only chance."
