Married to My Ex-Fiancé's Cousin-Chapter 837: Wanting to See Him

Xia Duo was still sitting in the coffee shop, and by the time she realized it, Ji Yunhuan had already left, leaving the money for the coffee and an unfinished cup of coffee on the table in front of her.

Xia Duo sat there, her fingers tightly clenched together.

The last time she went to the hotel to find Qi Cheng, she was humiliated once, so she chose to approach Ji Yunhuan, not expecting to be humiliated again today!

-

The banquet is held on Sunday evening, with Mr. and Mrs. Qi in attendance. Ji Yunhuan will arrive early because she is responsible for the party.

In the afternoon, she was still changing in the dressing room when a servant came up and told her, "Ma’am, Miss Ji Min wants to see you."

"Ji Min?" Ji Yunhuan frowned slightly; Ji Min hadn’t appeared in front of her for a long time. After Ji Yunhuan had rejected her several times before, and realizing there were no benefits to be had from Ji Yunhuan, the Ji Family had given up.

Ji Min’s sudden appearance now surprised Ji Yunhuan.

The servant said, "The female housekeeper has already let her wait downstairs, you’d better take a look!"

Ji Yunhuan tidied her appearance in the mirror and walked out of the dressing room.

In the downstairs living room, Ji Min was sitting there, and with some time to spare, Ji Yunhuan walked over, "What are you here for?"

Ji Min looked up; although she was dressed clean and tidy, at this moment she looked disheveled and haggard.

It was evident that Ji Min’s circumstances were not very good.

Ji Yunhuan sat down on the sofa and scrutinized Ji Min.

Ji Min folded her hands, mustered her courage, and said, "I have something I’d like you to help with."

"Help?" Ji Yunhuan said, "I’ve said it before, I have no relationship with your family, don’t come looking for me."

She agreed to see Ji Min today because Ji Min hadn’t appeared for a long time.

Even though Ji Yunhuan’s words sounded more like humiliation to Ji Min’s ears, Ji Min forced herself to endure: "If I wasn’t desperate, I wouldn’t have come to see you. My parents borrowed money from a loan shark. If we don’t pay it back, our family might all die. Can’t you help us? Even if we’ve wronged you in the past, at least we’re family!"

"Since you know you might die, you shouldn’t have borrowed from a loan shark in the first place," Ji Yunhuan said coldly. "Or is it that you were sure I would help pay it back, so you dared to borrow?"

"Ji Yunhuan!" Ji Min’s eyes glistened with tears, "I’ve come to beg you, and you won’t soften your heart? We still have blood relations, my dad is your dad’s brother."

Listening to Ji Min’s plea, Ji Yunhuan only felt numb. She used to be just as helpless, yet at her most helpless moment, her own uncle severed ties with her in the same way.

Ji Yunhuan said, "Don’t talk to me about family bonds. You know, those words can’t deceive me anymore."

Ji Min never knew that Ji Yunhuan could be so cold-blooded, "Will you really watch us die without helping? If you had lent us money back then, we wouldn’t have gone to a loan shark, and today’s situation wouldn’t have happened."

Ji Yunhuan chuckled lightly, "So it’s all my fault? Since you borrowed, you should naturally bear the consequences. I’m not a saint; there’s no need for me to clean up other people’s messes."

Ji Yunhuan understood that if she gave in once, there would be a second time. If she softened here, Ji Min and her family would only become more relentless.

Therefore, Ji Yunhuan didn’t want to compromise or soften her stance.

Ji Min’s eyes were red, and she asked furiously, "Even if our whole family dies, you don’t care?"

"I don’t care."

Ji Yunhuan’s indifference showed no signs of softening. She was anxious to go to the hotel to handle matters and didn’t want to waste time with Ji Min here.

She knew Ji Min wouldn’t leave easily once she came, and was contemplating how to deal with it, but unexpectedly, Ji Min stood up after hearing her words. She looked at Ji Yunhuan and said, "That’s what you said, Ji Yunhuan. I’ll make you regret it."

"You’re threatening me?" Ji Yunhuan raised her eyebrows in disbelief.

Just because she wouldn’t help, she had to be threatened?

Did she have to rush to help them whenever they came asking?

Ridiculous!

Ji Min smirked without saying much and walked out directly.

The servant escorted Ji Min out, and Ji Yunhuan sat on the sofa, her mood soured by Ji Min.

Su Zi came downstairs with the two kids, seeing Ji Yunhuan sitting on the beige sofa in the living room in a daze, she asked confusedly, "Sister Yunhuan, aren’t you going out? Why haven’t you left yet?"

Ji Yunhuan looked at the time, "I’m leaving now."

Because Ji Yunhuan had things to handle and Su Zi happened to be free, she agreed to help her watch the kids.

Ji Yunhuan stood up; the servant had already prepared everything for her. Ji Yunhuan instructed Yangyang and Ruirui, "I’m leaving first. Yangyang and Ruirui, follow Aunt Su Zi and be good."

"Okay, okay." Ruirui held Su Zi’s hand, looking obedient.

As for Yangyang, there was no need to worry; Ji Yunhuan was very confident about him.

When Ji Yunhuan arrived at the hotel, she found that her sister-in-law had also come to help, and she immediately felt relieved, "You’re here so early today, Sister-in-law."

"Just came to check things out." Her sister-in-law glanced at Ji Yunhuan, "You’ve worked hard these days."

"What’s hard about it? I don’t have much to do." For any errands, she would ask the servants to handle them, only worrying if they didn’t do well and needing to supervise them.

Her sister-in-law was holding materials and reviewing what was missing. Seeing her so dedicated, Ji Yunhuan actively went to prepare other things.

Later in the evening, the Qi Family members all arrived.

Ji Yunhuan stood by the window calling Qi Cheng, who was still elsewhere.

"You’re not coming tonight?" Ji Yunhuan asked unexpectedly.

Qi Cheng’s voice sounded helpless, "Hm, can’t make it on time, please help watch over things, thanks."

Qi Cheng’s busyness reminded Ji Yunhuan of what Xia Duo said that day, about how Zhou Yixiu and Yun Qinghang were now collaborating, and the challenges Qi Cheng faced would be greater than before.

Actually, she was really worried about Qi Cheng, originally hoping to meet him tonight, but who knew... sigh.

Since Qi Cheng wasn’t coming, Ji Yunhuan had to handle the affairs here in his place. As a member of the Qi Family, she had to learn to manage some matters.

The banquet had many attendees, even Xia Duo and Lin Xiang showed up.

Seeing Xia Duo and Lin Xiang made Ji Yunhuan uncomfortable all over, but given their current status, as long as they didn’t cause trouble, Ji Yunhuan couldn’t publicly throw them out.

Ji Yunhuan greeted important guests at the entrance with her sister-in-law, while Xia Duo stood nearby, observing Ji Yunhuan and smirking...
