Married to My Ex-Fiancé's Cousin-Chapter 977: Annoyed with Dad

The eldest aunt was afraid that she might disturb the couple’s time together.

Ji Yunhuan, seeing that she had said this, followed Qi Cheng back to their room.

There were other children at home; Ruirui was playing with them. Upstairs, Ji Yunhuan asked Qi Cheng to hold their daughter and fetch Ruirui, who was playing with the children.

Ruirui had come along this time; as he was young, he would fuss if away from Ji Yunhuan for too long.

Yangyang was well-behaved, so he stayed with the second sister-in-law and didn’t come along.

Ji Yunhuan held Ruirui’s hand as they returned to the room. Qi Cheng was teasing their daughter, who had just woken up.

Qi Cheng really liked these small, newborn babies. He had been very attentive with Yangyang and Ruirui when they were this young.

In this regard, Ji Yunhuan felt that she couldn’t compare to Qi Cheng.

Because when the children were just born, all the worries were his.

After caring for the children for so long, he was almost a professional nurturer.

"Sister is awake." Ruirui happily ran over and looked at Qi Yin, who was placed in the crib by Qi Cheng, very delighted.

Even though he was often jealous of his sister for taking away his parental love, Ruirui still liked his sister very much.

"Stay back, don’t touch her with your dirty hands." Qi Cheng said disdainfully.

Ruirui looked at his hands, and Ji Yunhuan said, "Come on, Mom will take you to wash your hands."

Ji Yunhuan took him to bathe after he had been playing with friends, and when they came out, Qi Cheng was still teasing their daughter, his eyes seemingly never leaving her face.

Once Ruirui was clean, he could finally go dignifiedly to his sister’s side.

Before he could get close, Qi Cheng nervously said, "Just touch lightly; you don’t know your own strength. Don’t make her cry."

Ruirui: "..."

He said, frustrated, "I wouldn’t make sister cry, Dad’s mean."

"How am I mean?" Qi Cheng glared at him, "When you played with friends at noon, didn’t you make someone cry?"

"..." Ruirui was at a loss for words, no longer wanting to touch his sister, turning around to hug Ji Yunhuan’s leg, "Mom, Dad is being unfair again. He won’t let me touch sister."

His tender voice was full of grievance, feeling really aggrieved.

Ji Yunhuan sighed helplessly, picking Ruirui up, "It’s okay; Dad likes sister, so let him be with her. Ruirui still has me! Mom loves Ruirui the most."

Ji Yunhuan placed him on the bed and helped him take off his slippers, "Be good, get on the bed."

Ruirui frowned and looked at Qi Cheng with resentment, "I don’t like Dad."

Qi Cheng: "..."

Ji Yunhuan said, "Did you hear that? That’s what you get for favoring one child. Is that how you treat children?"

Qi Cheng said speechlessly, "What did I do wrong? The little guy even knows to tattle now, doesn’t he? Let’s see how you tattle, and I’ll deal with you when your mom isn’t around."

"Mom, see..." Ruirui wouldn’t let go of Qi Cheng, hoping Ji Yunhuan would seek justice for him quickly.

Otherwise, what if Qi Cheng bullies him when Ji Yunhuan isn’t around?

Ji Yunhuan said to Qi Cheng, "I know you’re not thinking that way, but don’t treat our son like that! Or Ruirui will be upset; he’s still so young. Give our daughter to me." 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

"Don’t make her cry." Qi Cheng said as he handed the child to Ji Yunhuan, after all.

Ji Yunhuan looked at their silly and cute little daughter, "Okay, come on! No matter what, I’m the one who gave birth to her; how could I make her cry?"

After all, even the smallest child should recognize their mother!

She refused to believe that her daughter would only recognize Qi Cheng and not her.

Yet, when Ji Yunhuan held her in her arms and Sister Yin couldn’t see Qi Cheng, she started crying.

"See, told you." Qi Cheng said gloatingly from the side.

Ji Yunhuan was frustrated, "This is my biological child! What does this mean? Doesn’t she recognize me as her mother?"

"She’s already starting to recognize people." Qi Cheng glanced at Ruirui and patted the little guy’s head, "Daughters are more intimate than sons. Did Ruirui ever rely on me when he was little?"

"So you’re jealous, huh!" Ji Yunhuan laughed, held her daughter to comfort her, and finally stopped her crying.

Soon, both children fell asleep.

Ji Yunhuan watched the little girl in her arms. Usually, at this time, the little girl would go to the nanny’s side, but sometimes Ji Yunhuan didn’t want Sister Yin to leave her.

Although she wasn’t too willing when Qi Cheng suggested having this daughter, it was impossible for her not to like her biological daughter.

Qi Cheng lay beside her, and they chatted occasionally.

"I wonder how big brother and sister-in-law are doing." Ji Yunhuan asked.

"Why worry about them?" Qi Cheng said, "They’ve been married for so many years, and it seems like they won’t divorce. As for the future... it’s up to them. Life is their choice; no one can decide for them."

Ji Yunhuan looked at Qi Cheng and smiled.

-

Big brother was usually the earliest riser in the family, waking up even earlier than the habitually early-rising eldest aunt when he was home.

Sure enough, he woke up before dawn.

Sister-in-law lay against the pillow, hearing big brother on the phone with his assistant, "Alright, I know."

Awoken, sister-in-law looked at big brother, "What happened?"

"Mr. Zhou Jilin passed away." Big brother got out of bed, adjusted his nightwear, and glanced at sister-in-law, "Go back to sleep. I’m going upstairs for a bit."

"Okay." Big brother quickly left and closed the door, not staying in the room to wake sister-in-law.

Sister-in-law watched his departing back, unable to fall asleep again.

Though nothing happened between them last night, and there wasn’t any reconnecting as the eldest aunt imagined, she still felt that their relationship had clearly become much closer.

She also clearly felt that big brother was willing to return to the past with her.

Because he said he didn’t want to waste time like before every day.

After all, they didn’t have as much young and reckless time left.

Zhou Jilin passed away, and the Zhou Family held a memorial service, which the Qi Family attended, and Ji Yunhuan went along with Qi Cheng.

She knew well that Zhou Jilin’s passing was a significant blow to Zhou Yixiu and meant he couldn’t be as arrogant as before.

After living in fear for so long, seeing Zhou Yixiu’s current situation finally allowed her to relax a bit.

At the memorial service, Ji Yunhuan saw Lin Zhenyu, and although she had seen Lin Zhenyu many times before, honestly, Ji Yunhuan had never seen her like this.

As Zhou Luo’s mother, she stood next to Zhou Yixiu; of course, all of this was for show for others.

Zhou Yixiu wanted Zhou Luo to be his heir, so even though he wished he could strangle Lin Zhenyu, he had to publicly acknowledge that Lin Zhenyu was his wife.
