Married to My Ex-Fiancé's Cousin-Chapter 752: Holding Her Hand_1

"Mm." Ji Yunhuan hugged Yangyang and said, "The police officer caught him. He is dead. Nothing like this will happen again." After all, not everyone in this world was as brutal as Brother Long.

Yangyang listened to Ji Yunhuan’s words but became even more frightened. "What if he comes back for me?"

Previously at the hospital, Yangyang rarely talked to Ji Yunhuan. Only today did he say so many things to her.

Ji Yunhuan then realized how many worries her son had on his mind.

After all, sometimes, watching random ghost movies would inevitably make one think of strange things.

Originally, Ji Yunhuan planned to help Yangyang bathe, then go downstairs to eat something and check on Ruirui. But now, she had to stay in the room to keep Yangyang company.

Although Yangyang was in a bad mood, he was very spirited and refused to sleep. Ji Yunhuan stayed by his side to reassure him.

He leaned against Ji Yunhuan, his small body trembling incessantly.

Qi Cheng came in from outside. Seeing this scene, he frowned. "Didn’t we agree to go downstairs to eat?"

"Yangyang doesn’t want me to leave, so I’ll stay here with him. I’ll eat later!" Ji Yunhuan hugged Yangyang in her arms. Qi Cheng sat down on the other side of the bed.

He had been very patient recently and treated Yangyang well. Qi Cheng held Yangyang’s little arm and said, "I’ll stay with you. Let your mom go rest for a while, okay? She has been with you for days and is very tired."

Although Ji Yunhuan said she was fine and could hold on, Qi Cheng couldn’t stop worrying about her.

After all, at times like this, the only one who would care for Ji Yunhuan was Qi Cheng.

Yangyang didn’t make a sound. Qi Cheng got on the bed and lay beside the mother and son. He looked at Yangyang and said some comforting words.

"Yangyang is a little man. In the future, you will protect your mom. Although this event was a big blow to you, you need to learn to be strong, okay?"

Yangyang looked at Qi Cheng and pressed his lips together.

Ji Yunhuan remained silent beside them. This intimate scene of communication between father and son was a rare sight in their home.

Qi Cheng stayed with Yangyang for a while until Yangyang fell asleep.

It seemed that having Qi Cheng around made Yangyang feel more at ease.

He glanced at Ji Yunhuan and said, "Go downstairs and eat. I’ll stay here with him, it’s okay."

Even if Yangyang usually didn’t rely much on him, after all, he was his biological father. Blood ties couldn’t be changed.

Seeing her son sleeping peacefully, Ji Yunhuan stood up. "Then I’ll go out and be back soon."

Qi Cheng didn’t want her to return. "Go to sleep directly after eating."

"Okay." Ji Yunhuan agreed and went downstairs to eat something. It didn’t take long before she returned to Yangyang’s room.

At times like this, how could she possibly rest easy and leave the child to sleep alone?

She also brought Ruirui in.

Because Ji Yunhuan had said they shouldn’t disturb his brother, Ruirui was particularly quiet.

His hair had grown a bit longer recently, covering his forehead, looking like a little girl, very pretty and quiet.

Ji Yunhuan placed Ruirui next to Qi Cheng and laid down on the bed herself.

She really liked Yangyang’s bedroom. It was full of childlike fun, making it easy for one to feel at ease.

Ji Yunhuan lay down with her eyes closed for a while, not yet sleeping soundly, when she felt her hand being held.

If she had been worried about her second sister-in-law and Yangyang these days, then Qi Cheng had been more worried about her while still caring for them.

Feeling his warm palm, Ji Yunhuan opened her eyes and looked at Qi Cheng.

Because he was by her side, even after going through so much, she still felt a sense of peace.

As if with him there, she wouldn’t be afraid even if the sky was falling.

"Qi Cheng," Ji Yunhuan said softly.

"Mm?" His eyes were filled with tenderness, patiently listening to what she wanted to say.

"You said that day, if you couldn’t bring Yangyang back, you wouldn’t come back. Did you mean it?"

Hearing Ji Yunhuan’s words, Qi Cheng asked in return, "What do you think?"

"..."

Seeing Ji Yunhuan remain silent, Qi Cheng said, "If it wasn’t for Yangyang, you wouldn’t have come back to me. This time, if I didn’t have the ability to bring him back, do you think I would have the face to appear in front of you?"

If he really couldn’t even protect their son, it would prove he didn’t deserve this woman.

Hearing Qi Cheng’s words, Ji Yunhuan tightened her grip on his hand. "Thank you, Qi Cheng. Thank you for bringing back Yangyang. Thank you for everything you did for our son!"

She was truly grateful for everything he had done.

He protected the most important person to her, the most important existence in her heart.

Qi Cheng couldn’t help but squeeze her hand. "When you say these things, do you ever think about how I feel?"

"What?"

"Yangyang is my child too! I should save him."

"..."

"Just because my usual attitude towards him is cold, doesn’t mean I don’t love my son, right?"

Ji Yunhuan said shamefully, "Okay, I admit I’m narrow-minded because in the past, you never cared about our son. When he cried, you even threw him into the swimming pool. If it hadn’t been for this incident, I wouldn’t have known you loved Yangyang so much."

"If he weren’t your child, I wouldn’t love him," Qi Cheng whispered, hugging Ji Yunhuan tenderly. "But because he’s your child, I will love him more than anyone else and strive to be a good father."

His chest was so warm, carrying his unique comforting scent.

Ji Yunhuan took a deep breath and said dependently, "Thank you, Qi Cheng."

She realized that with him treating her so well, she was getting more and more attached to him!

Hearing Ji Yunhuan’s words, Qi Cheng remained silent. He just looked at her quietly.

Until she fell asleep, he never moved his gaze away.

...

In the morning, Ji Yunhuan was downstairs simmering chicken soup. The female housekeeper was helping beside her. "Ms. Ji, who is this chicken soup for?"

"My second sister-in-law."

"Is the second lady able to eat now?"

"Yes, when I visited her with Yangyang last night, she was already somewhat awake. The doctor said she could eat something." These days she had been relying on nutrient solutions. She must have been craving the taste of food.

"There are so many people in the main house, someone must have prepared it for her." The female housekeeper said.

Ji Yunhuan glanced at her and couldn’t help but laugh. "Didn’t you always hope I would do more? Isn’t it good that I am now? I knew many people would be doing things for her, but... she saved Yangyang. I should show some effort!"

Ji Yunhuan stayed at the hospital for a while yesterday before returning. Although her second brother was there to keep watch, leaving nothing for her to do, she still wanted to make efforts and show her sincerity.

Although she had a falling out with her second sister-in-law before, how could a family live together without some friction?

In the past, she had been too willful and self-righteous.
