Married to My Ex-Fiancé's Cousin-Chapter 614 The Couple are Exactly Alike_1

"What are you talking about?" Lin Zhenyu also smiled. "I don’t hold a grudge against you. It’s just that I felt Ms. Ji went a bit too far in some areas, so I offered some advice. If it made Ms. Ji unhappy, I apologize."

Ji Yunhuan couldn’t help but admire Lin Zhenyu. This woman was probably furious inside, but she managed to hold it together in front of Zhou Yixiu.

In that sense, she seemed much stronger than Lin Xiang.

No wonder, given Lin Family’s modest background, she still managed to marry Zhou Yixiu.

Ji Yunhuan continued to feed Ruirui, completely ignoring the couple. She didn’t want to go too far; if she really angered Lin Zhenyu, Zhou Yixiu might forget the promise he made to Bai Liyan and turn on her in a key moment, leaving her with nowhere to cry.

After dinner, Ji Yunhuan quietly prepared to return to her room. As soon as she left the dining hall, Lin Zhenyu followed her. "Ms. Ji, wait a moment."

Ji Yunhuan stiffly stopped, seeing Lin Zhenyu approach and slightly nodding her head in acknowledgment. "Did Madam Zhou need something from me?"

Lin Zhenyu’s gaze fell on Ruirui, who was in the maid’s arms. She reached out and gently touched Ruirui’s cheek. "Your son is so cute. He’s grown so much in what feels like no time at all."

Though her actions were gentle, Ji Yunhuan felt uncomfortable seeing her touch her son.

She was about to reach out to stop Lin Zhenyu when she saw her withdraw her hand. Lin Zhenyu softly reminded her, "But children are the most likely to fall. You must be careful. If he falls and breaks an arm or a leg, that wouldn’t be good."

Ji Yunhuan widened her eyes, glaring at Lin Zhenyu. "Are you threatening me? Lin Zhenyu, you better not target my child, or I won’t let you get away with it." 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

Using Ruirui to threaten her was despicable!

Lin Zhenyu innocently said, "Ms. Ji, are you paranoid? I was just kindly reminding you to take good care of your child. How is that a threat?"

She glanced disdainfully at Ji Yunhuan, then turned and walked away.

Ji Yunhuan watched her retreating figure, clenching her fists.

Zhou Yixiu came out and saw Ji Yunhuan still standing there. He asked, "Ms. Ji, are you feeling unwell?"

"No." Without evidence, even if she told Zhou Yixiu, he probably wouldn’t take it to heart. The couple had the same nature; who knew if they were in cahoots?

Ji Yunhuan quickly returned to her room with Ruirui. The maid stayed to help give Ruirui a bath before leaving.

Lying on the bed, Ji Yunhuan gazed at her son. "Ruirui."

"Mommy." Ruirui looked at Ji Yunhuan. The little guy could stand now but hadn’t yet learned to walk. Watching him grow day by day was a joy for Ji Yunhuan.

Ji Yunhuan gently held his hand with her left hand. "Do you miss Daddy?"

"Da...ddy?"

"Have you already forgotten Qi Cheng?" Ji Yunhuan asked. "The one who took care of you every day. Remember?"

"Oh..." His thoughtful reaction made Ji Yunhuan laugh. She bent down and kissed his cheek. "Good baby, time to sleep."

Ji Yunhuan woke after just a few hours of sleep. Staring at the dark room, she couldn’t help but recall Lin Zhenyu’s words.

She felt there was deep meaning in that woman’s words.

She looked at Ruirui beside her, listening to his shallow breathing, determined to protect him.

The next morning, Ji Yunhuan woke up a bit late. She didn’t want to get up too early. Breakfast was brought up by the maid. Before eating, she specifically checked the food, worried that Lin Zhenyu might have tampered with it.

It turned out to be just her overthinking.

There was nothing wrong.

Seeing her finally eat with peace of mind, the maid asked, "I prepared all this by myself. Does Ms. Ji not trust me?"

"It’s not that I don’t trust you. I don’t trust your madam. Her words last night made me uneasy." Ji Yunhuan took some bread to feed Ruirui, afraid he might choke, so she only dared to give him small bites.

Ruirui ate happily.

Ji Yunhuan noticed that both kids took after her when it came to eating.

If they were picky like Qi Cheng, there’d be no hope.

The maid, puzzled, said, "The madam didn’t say anything last night."

Ji Yunhuan understood that different perspectives led to different interpretations. She didn’t expect the maid to see her as good and Lin Zhenyu as bad. She fell silent.

The maid, gazing at the adorable Ruirui, said, "Young Master Rui is so cute. No one would bear to harm him."

The maid’s naive belief made Ji Yunhuan smile, but she didn’t explain. However, the maid’s perception would soon change.

Ji Yunhuan couldn’t hold Ruirui with her arm, so she let the maid do it. After breakfast, they left the room, only to find an unknown substance smeared on the floor. The maid carrying Ruirui slipped and fell down the stairs. Ji Yunhuan’s heart nearly stopped. Luckily, the maid cared for Ruirui, holding him tightly without letting go, so Ruirui wasn’t hurt.

Ji Yunhuan tested the floor with her foot, unable to identify the substance.

But she knew Lin Zhenyu had something to do with it.

The maid’s cry as she fell attracted other maids. Ji Yunhuan carefully went downstairs and asked, "Zhen Ni, are you okay?"

She grimaced in pain, "Ms. Ji, I think I broke my leg."

"Call the doctor." Ji Yunhuan instructed.

A maid quickly went to get the doctor.

Ruirui was already being carried by another maid. Placed in front of Ji Yunhuan, she examined him. "Ruirui, are you hurt?"

Ruirui seemed to understand that Zhen Ni had saved him and pointed at her. Ji Yunhuan was very grateful to Zhen Ni.

Though Zhen Ni was Zhou Yixiu’s person, she was genuinely kind to Ruirui.

Zhou Yixiu and Lin Zhenyu had already come down using another staircase. Seeing the scene, Lin Zhenyu asked with concern, "What’s going on here?"

The doctor had arrived, examining Zhen Ni. After finishing, he said, "Her leg is fractured. She needs plenty of rest in the coming days."

Watching Zhen Ni’s painful expression, Ji Yunhuan’s gaze fell on Lin Zhenyu, whose eyes were filled with glee. She came over, feigning concern, but whispered to Ji Yunhuan, "You were lucky."

Ji Yunhuan had expected it was her doing and wasn’t surprised at all.

Zhen Ni was taken to a room to rest.

Ji Yunhuan didn’t trust anyone else with Ruirui. Holding him with one arm, she walked over to the sofa where Zhou Yixiu and Lin Zhenyu were seated. Ji Yunhuan put Ruirui on the sofa; he had grown, and she couldn’t hold him for long with one arm.

Besides, she had a score to settle with Lin Zhenyu.
