Married to My Ex-Fiancé's Cousin-Chapter 626 No Man Is Worth Your Effort_1

But the person who got out of the car was Bai Liyan.

She looked at Bai Liyan in surprise. He had already walked up to her and frowned at her, saying, "I knew you’d come here again."

Ji Yunhuan looked inside. "I just wanted to see Ruirui and Yangyang."

When she was in Huai Xi, she thought about Yangyang and Qi Cheng every day. But in the end, she lost more than she had back then.

"Yunhuan, give up. Why can’t you see by now? He’s not right for you anymore. Among all the women he’s discarded, what makes you think you’re different? Sure, he loved you longer than the others, but didn’t he eventually get tired of you too?" Bai Liyan’s words pierced her heart sharply.

She didn’t want to believe Qi Cheng had grown tired of her.

But, if that wasn’t the case, she couldn’t explain his heartlessness either.

Ji Yunhuan smiled. "It doesn’t matter if he’s right for me anymore. All I care about are the children."

Hearing Ji Yunhuan’s words, Bai Liyan sighed. "Let’s go back, Yunhuan. Listen to me. Come with me. What you’re doing won’t solve anything."

"But what else can I do?" She looked at him. "Bai Liyan, what else do you think I can do? I thought after coming back from Jiangling, we would never have a day like this again. I trusted him, relied on him... and now, with him like this, I really don’t know what to do."

"Come back tomorrow. I heard Qi Cheng isn’t even here today," Bai Liyan said.

Hearing this, Ji Yunhuan couldn’t help but widen her eyes. "Why didn’t you say so earlier?"

If he wasn’t here, then even if she waited outside all day and all night, he wouldn’t see her.

"Let’s go back." Bai Liyan opened the car door and together, they got into the car.

It was still raining outside. Qi Cheng leaned back in the wooden chair in his study. The female housekeeper walked in and said, "Sir, madam has left."

Hearing this, Qi Cheng put down the book that had been over his head and opened his eyes in disappointment. "Really?"

"Mr. Bai came and took her away."

"..." Hearing this, Qi Cheng’s face darkened. He had been thinking of forgiving her once the rain stopped, but in the end...

She was still entangled with Bai Liyan.

Maybe she came back here not to be with him again, but just to see the children.

Thinking of this, a cold smile slowly appeared on his face.

He hated to think he had loved the wrong person, but now, what could he do even if he didn’t believe it?

She had another man in her heart. She despised him for not being good enough. Bai Liyan had just partnered with someone to abduct her, and she was fooled. Everything he had done before that hadn’t left any impression on her.

This feeling of disappointment made his heart ache. The stomach problem that had emerged when she was not around had been tormenting him these past few days.

The female housekeeper looked at him and said, "Your stomach is acting up again, isn’t it? I made some hot soup. Let me bring you a bowl."

"Mm." Even if she wasn’t by his side, he didn’t need to mistreat himself.

Ji Yunhuan returned to the Qi Family residence. The warmth was still there. When she heard that she had run off to the Qi Residence again, Wen Nuan was furious. "Yunhuan, what am I supposed to say to you?"

Ji Yunhuan knew she was useless right now. "I just can’t let go of the children."

"What’s the point of holding on? Don’t forget what Qi Cheng has done. He treats you like this now, and you still want to go back to him. Are you stupid?"

Wen Nuan pointed to the family portrait on the wall. "Have you forgotten how your parents died?"

This statement successfully hit Ji Yunhuan’s sore spot.

She glanced at the picture of her parents on the wall. If her father knew how useless she was today, he’d probably hit her.

Yes, even for the children, it seemed she shouldn’t be doing such foolish things.

She sat on the sofa, covering her head, not speaking for a long time.

Wen Nuan sat down and gently patted her shoulder. "I’m not trying to hurt you. I just want you to wake up. You’ve already compromised too much for that man. If you keep clinging to him, you’ll become the next Xia Duo, the next Ms. Xingwei..."

Hearing this, Ji Yunhuan couldn’t help but look at Wen Nuan. Suddenly, she thought such a future seemed terrifying. "I won’t become like that."

"You will if you continue like this. Could you have imagined three years ago how you are today? Even though it’s for the children, people who don’t know better will think you can’t live without that man. What’s so good about him? Is he worth it? You were abducted, he wasn’t by your side, and when he saw you, he treated you like that. If I were you, I’d never want to see him again for the rest of my life!"

Just thinking about it made Wen Nuan furious, even though she wasn’t the one involved.

She looked at Ji Yunhuan. "No man is worth what you’re doing, understand?"

Ji Yunhuan didn’t say anything more about not being like this for Qi Cheng. She also didn’t go to Qi Garden to wait in vain for the next two days.

She still couldn’t let go of the children, but she knew that pretending to be pitiful wouldn’t move Qi Cheng.

If Qi Cheng truly didn’t want her anymore, she needed a new plan. At the very least, she couldn’t continue to fail like this; she had to strive for economic independence. Only then would she have the right to speak and have the hope of seeing the children.

Although fighting over the children with the Qi Family seemed like a fantasy, it was better than waiting in vain at the Qi Garden gate.

Zhou Muqing had already been discharged, and his health was improving. Wen Nuan had plans to start a restaurant again. She took Ji Yunhuan to look at locations for a day. When Ji Yunhuan got home in the evening, Bai Liyan had already made dinner and was waiting for her.

Seeing him like this, Ji Yunhuan felt guilty. She could never accept Bai Liyan.

"Didn’t I tell you not to come over?"

"I can’t leave you alone. I’m worried." Bai Liyan glanced at her and walked up to her. Ji Yunhuan had just finished changing her shoes.

"What are you worried about?" Ji Yunhuan stood up and looked at him. "I’m an adult. I can take care of myself."

"After the kidnapping, I have a shadow in my heart." Although they both came back safely, it had only just happened.

"How is Zhou Yixiu?" Even though she had separated from Qi Cheng and he refused to believe in her innocence with Bai Liyan, what Zhou Yixiu did couldn’t be ignored.

"He hasn’t come back. I guess he’s worried I’d look for him." Zhou Yixiu hadn’t returned since leaving Huai Xi. Bai Liyan figured he had fled to another country.

Thinking of Zhou Yixiu, Ji Yunhuan wanted to skin him alive. But, she knew she didn’t have that ability.

She was just a woman with nothing, not even a man to rely on.

Bai Liyan saw her silence and asked with concern, "How did it go looking at the store with Wen Nuan?"
