Chapter 61: Chapter 61 Finally Knowing to Care for Him_1

During breakfast, Ji Yunhuan kept sneaking glances at Qi Cheng. When he wanted a drink of water, she handed it to him before he even spoke.

When he wanted to pick up some food, she used the serving chopsticks to put it in his bowl before he could ask.

The child eating with them and the female housekeeper watching from the side were both astonished by the scene.

The female housekeeper thought with relief, "Madam finally understands how to care for Mister."

The child looked at Ji Yunhuan, "Sis, has something fun happened to you recently?"

Ji Yunhuan was indeed happy, but she could sense that Qi Cheng was not happy. Naturally, she did not dare to mention anything cheerful.

She just stared at Qi Cheng.

That sympathetic look made Qi Cheng feel like a herd of alpacas was stampeding through his heart. How could he not know what that kind of look meant?

It meant she thought he was impotent.

She was pitying him!

Facing her concern, he really couldn’t feel happy at all.

In the afternoon, the sunshine was nice. Bai Liyan came to the house and the two of them played golf on the course. Wearing a sun hat, Bai Liyan looked at Qi Cheng, whose expression wasn’t good, "What’s wrong? Did your wife make you angry again?"

He had the same expression the last time he got angry with Ji Yunhuan.

Qi Cheng forced a smile, "Did I? Do I look like I’m angry?"

"You totally do." Bai Liyan chuckled, "She’s the only one who can piss you off like this again and again, yet you still cater to her. I’ve never seen you treat any other woman so well. So, Mr. Qi can be smitten by a beauty too?"

Qi Cheng stayed silent.

He didn’t deny it because he indeed felt entranced by Ji Yunhuan.

Thinking about last night’s interrupted intimacy, he now couldn’t muster any enthusiasm.

When they got married, he knew very well that he couldn’t touch her. However, day by day, he found he had no resistance to her at all.

Was he really going crazy?

While they were talking, Ji Yunhuan was inside the house drawing her design draft. After three days of hard work, she was finally able to sketch out what the draft should look like, although it might still be lacking in creativity.

As soon as Qi Cheng entered the house, he heard her calling him, "Qi Cheng, can you take a look and see if this works?"

He had just come in from outside, and the way she called him sounded like she was summoning her servant.

But...

He didn’t mind that feeling.

He walked to her side and took a glance at the draft she had on the table, a bit surprised, "You’re progressing quickly! It doesn’t look like a beginner’s work at all."

"But I always feel that there’s something not quite right."

"Of course, it’s not right," Qi Cheng said. "Design isn’t just about technique. It also involves inspiration and creativity. When you were drawing, you probably didn’t think about what kind of emotions a bride wearing this wedding dress would have marrying the person she loves, did you?"

His words left Ji Yunhuan dumbfounded, "You have to think about that too?"

Although she was marrying Qi Cheng, she had never thought of herself as a bride.

In her eyes, her marriage to him was a transaction, not love. So how could she possibly imagine what it would be like to marry someone she loved?

Not to mention that she didn’t believe she could love anyone. Even if she did, she was already someone else’s wife.

Her life was destined to be a tragedy.

Qi Cheng looked at her complicatedly. Ji Yunhuan felt a bit uneasy, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

She turned her face away, "I’ll just redraw it."

But then she felt his hand on her shoulder. He gently embraced her, "How about I help you draw it?"

"You can?"

"Let’s give it a try." He had studied this field. Of course, he could design wedding dresses, but he had never tried it. However, now he wanted to see her in a wedding dress designed by himself.

On the seventh day of their agreed meeting, the second sister-in-law came to the house herself. Ji Yunhuan showed her the finished wedding dress design. The second sister-in-law took one look and was stunned.

Ji Yunhuan secretly observed her reaction. Actually, Qi Cheng had helped her draw it. After seeing his work, she couldn’t stand looking at her own anymore. To avoid embarrassment, she used Qi Cheng’s work as her own.

The second sister-in-law’s hand trembled as she held the design. She couldn’t believe Ji Yunhuan could create such a masterpiece. Even she, a professional, couldn’t help but admire it.

"Did you really design this?" the second sister-in-law asked.

Ji Yunhuan calmly said, "Yes."

"Impossible."

"What’s impossible?" Qi Cheng, who had just arrived, said. He took Ji Yunhuan’s hand and presented it to the second sister-in-law. Because of the repeated practice in the past few days, her hand almost had calluses, "I watched her work hard. Do you still not believe it, second sister-in-law?"

Qi Cheng’s attitude was polite yet somewhat assertive. His hand was like a warm source. When he held Ji Yunhuan’s hand, she felt a great warmth.

Ji Yunhuan secretly glanced at him, not expecting him to defend her like this, especially since the wedding dress was his work.

The second sister-in-law watched the scene and looked at Ji Yunhuan.

Qi Cheng sat down, "Ji Yunhuan has now created a piece that amazes you, second sister-in-law. I hope you won’t dwell on the past anymore. She may be a bit willful, but you have to admit, she makes a strong point. Sometimes, fame and fortune can blind us to many things, don’t you agree?"

The second sister-in-law nodded, looking at the design, "Actually, I have reflected a lot these days. I admit that sometimes I don’t even know what I’m doing anymore. Because everyone is satisfied, I didn’t bother to put in the effort. But... seeing this design, I realized I’m not as good as I thought."

She looked at Ji Yunhuan with a bit of admiration, "Why don’t you come to my studio? I’ll treat you well."

Though she was previously dissatisfied with Ji Yunhuan, the second sister-in-law was a reasonable person and appreciated talent.

Ji Yunhuan awkwardly declined, "No, designing wedding dresses is still too difficult for me. This time, it was because of your pressure that I completed it. I’m not fit for this profession. Besides, it was just a misunderstanding last time. I wasn’t dissatisfied with those wedding dresses. Something happened that day, which caused the misunderstanding. I hope you won’t take it to heart."

The wedding dress wasn’t even her work, it was Qi Cheng’s. How could she produce such a masterpiece?

The second sister-in-law looked at her, feeling that a talent had slipped through her fingers, but this was Qi Cheng’s wife. The Qi Family people all had their own careers and were doing what they wanted. She had no reason to make her work for her.

After the second sister-in-law left, Ji Yunhuan leaned back on the sofa, exhausted, "So tired."

After insisting for so many days, once she relaxed, she realized how tired she was.

She even had dark circles under her eyes.

Qi Cheng said, "So, don’t create such trouble for yourself next time."

Ji Yunhuan looked at him, "You draw so well. Why didn’t you help me from the start...?"

"If you hadn’t tried so hard, I wouldn’t have helped you. Do you think I’m easier to deal with than the second sister-in-law? Actually, I’m even tougher."

"True." She stood up, "I’m going to get a massage."

There was a professional massage therapist at home, so she didn’t have to go out.

Qi Cheng knew how to enjoy life. Whatever one could think of, he likely had it here.

However, thinking about such an excellent and wealthy man who had "that" issue, Ji Yunhuan felt a continuous pity for him.

Actually, he was quite good to her, but now he looked really pitiful.

Late at night, Qi Cheng removed the small hand on his chest and irritably looked at the woman lying beside him.
