Chapter 79: Chapter 79 Wanting to Protect Her_1

He realized one thing through this incident. He was no longer unconsciously deviating from his original intention to marry her.

At that time, he thought it was for Su Molang’s sake. But now, he thought, maybe he fell for her the day he saw her at the Qi Family residence.

That’s why he found so many reasons and did things even Bai Liyan couldn’t understand.

When he realized he liked her, he always felt tormented, hesitated, and despaired because of Su Molang, even daring not to face his own heart.

However, when he thought he might die and looked at her, he found an extra bit of courage. He told himself that if he had another chance, he would cast aside the resentment towards Su Molang and treat her well.

To be honest, in matters involving Su Molang, she bore no significant responsibility.

When Su Molang left with regret, it was certainly because, like him, he regretted not having more opportunities to spend time with this woman.

He felt that at that moment, he deeply understood Su Molang’s feelings.

Although there was regret, there was absolutely no hatred in it.

Moreover, if he died, he would instead worry that no one else in this world could protect her.

"Why aren’t you talking?" Ji Yunhuan asked.

She always felt that everyone else knew things she didn’t.

Qi Cheng pretended to be clueless. "I don’t know. I can’t tell. Did you have a grudge before?"

Ji Yunhuan shook her head. "I’ve never seen her before."

What necessity was there for Su Zi to hate her so much?

"Or maybe Su Zi has a crush on you?" Ji Yunhuan speculated.

Just like Xia Duo, who also liked Qi Cheng and disliked her.

Qi Cheng calmly looked at Ji Yunhuan, not explaining or denying it.

If she wanted to think that way, let her think that way! Otherwise, he didn’t know how to explain it anyway.

"Really?" Seeing he didn’t deny it, Ji Yunhuan could only guess so.

"Maybe! But I only see her as a friend’s sister." Qi Cheng handed the fruit to her. "Feed me."

"..." Ji Yunhuan reluctantly took the fruit and, looking at his pure expression, couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows. "Childish."

But she still listened to him and took good care of him.

Regardless of any hidden reasons, Qi Cheng had saved her life.

She couldn’t be bothered to think about complicated matters.

Actually, she had an idea about who was trying to harm her.

Besides the Gu Family, who else could it be?

Although her father had fallen in the past five years, she had lived peacefully.

Her only enemy now was the Gu Family.

Mr. Gu had been away for many years and was capable of anything.

"What are you thinking?" Qi Cheng looked at her, seriously probing.

Ji Yunhuan said, "Thinking about this incident."

"Hmm?"

"The person who collided with your car is dead." Although someone had died, Ji Yunhuan’s expression remained calm. She looked at Qi Cheng and sighed. "Now we won’t know who was behind it."

Qi Cheng held her hand. "Don’t think about it. I’ll protect you from now on."

Who dared to touch his wife!

Even if the person was dead, he would find out everything clearly.

Ji Yunhuan looked at Qi Cheng. "You’re injured now. Second sister-in-law said we should delay the wedding."

"No need," Qi Cheng said. "The wedding will go on as scheduled."

Ji Yunhuan looked at the bandage on Qi Cheng’s head. "But you’re still lying in a hospital bed."

"Even if I have to crawl to the wedding site, I want everyone to witness our wedding." He said confidently, not at all affected by the recent events.

Ji Yunhuan looked at him with determination but couldn’t help recalling Bai Liyan’s words.

"Dr. Bai said, ’Anyone who falls in love with me will not end well.’ Qi Cheng, aren’t you afraid?"

"Did he tell you this?" Qi Cheng couldn’t help but be stunned.

"Yeah. He’s worried about you!" Ji Yunhuan also didn’t want to hide it from Qi Cheng. Actually, she felt the same way. Otherwise, how could she end up lonely and helpless in the end?

Seeing she wasn’t affected, Qi Cheng secretly sighed in relief.

Actually, he understood clearly what Bai Liyan meant, even if Ji Yunhuan didn’t.

Su Molang had loved Ji Yunhuan and died, and this time, he had almost...

If it were before, he would surely have had the same view as Bai Liyan.

People like them, born noble, viewed everyone else as mere embellishments in their world. So he could freely manipulate others’ fates.

Even if the Ji Family collapsed because of him, he never felt guilty.

After all, those people were insignificant strangers to him.

In his eyes, everything was worth it for his friend.

But now...

He realized how excessive he had been towards the Ji Family.

He held Ji Yunhuan’s hand, looking at her quiet demeanor, feeling a faint pain in his heart.

He always felt she owed Su Molang, but thinking carefully, who really owed anyone when it comes to feelings?

But now, even though he knew these things, it was impossible to erase his past mistakes.

All he could do was keep it from her, forever.

After a moment of silence in the ward, Qi Cheng spoke. "Go call Liyan."

Ji Yunhuan followed his instructions, standing up but suddenly hesitant. "You’re not going to argue with him because of what I said, are you?"

She didn’t want to see such a situation.

"No." Qi Cheng said. "Go ahead!"

Ji Yunhuan then listened to him and left the room.

Although angry at Qi Cheng’s irrational actions, Bai Liyan was still in the hospital out of concern. Ji Yunhuan found him quickly after leaving the ward.

Standing by a window on the same floor, looking down in a daze, his tall figure in a white coat carried a hint of resentment in his eyes.

Ji Yunhuan walked over. "Dr. Bai."

He glanced at her. "What is it?"

Though angry at Qi Cheng, he had no desire to vent his anger on a woman.

"Qi Cheng needs you."

"I know."

Bai Liyan immediately walked towards Qi Cheng’s ward.

Ji Yunhuan watched his back but didn’t follow, instead looking down at the hospital below.

Because of Chen Chen, she had always disliked the hospital’s smell, but she had to endure it.

She looked at the illuminated buildings outside, stretching her body. After a day of tension, her nerves relaxed slightly after talking with Qi Cheng.

Bai Liyan entered the room, looking at Qi Cheng, who was lying on the bed. "Looking for me?"

"Don’t talk to her about Su Molang." As soon as they met, Qi Cheng directly told Bai Liyan.
