Married to My Ex-Fiancé's Cousin-Chapter 866: The Worst Boyfriend

Chapter 866: Chapter 866: The Worst Boyfriend
The driver had already prepared a car for him. Qi Ling took the car keys; he’s used to driving himself and enjoys the feeling of freedom, usually without needing a driver.
He had just gotten into the car when Lin Xiang opened the door on the other side and sat down.
Seeing her, Qi Ling asked in surprise, "How did you get in here?"
"Happen to have a place to go, give me a ride." Lin Xiang looked at Qi Ling pleadingly, "Ling, brother, I know you’re the best."
Her affectionate address made Qi Ling’s skin crawl.
He had no choice but to drive, "Where to?"
Lin Xiang said, "I’ll tell you later."
"..."
So Qi Ling drove to the medical research center but didn’t get the destination from Lin Xiang.
He didn’t intend to accompany her in circles. It was evident she wasn’t planning to go anywhere, she just wanted to cling to him.
Qi Ling unbuckled his seatbelt and said to Lin Xiang, "I’m in a hurry, you can catch a cab by the door yourself."
Lin Xiang followed him out of the car, laughing, "I actually need to come here too. How did you know?"
This was the most awkward joke Qi Ling had ever heard. He felt his forehead twitch and didn’t say anything to hit back at Lin Xiang.
Following his grandfather, he was used to being reserved, whether he liked it or not, he didn’t want to show too much, so he let Lin Xiang be.
After all, she’s a woman; he should respect her and give her face.
Bai Liyan happened to be at the research institute today. Knowing she was here, Qi Ling came over.
He walked in and saw Bai Liyan sitting by the window looking at the scenery.
In C City, Bai Liyan would mostly come to the hospital. Of course, mostly he would stand there daydreaming. Qi Ling walked over, leaning against the window, looking at Bai Liyan, "Dr. Bai, contemplating any major life issues today?"
Bai Liyan glanced at Qi Ling and said, "What can I contemplate?"
"Recently, those eyes have been sweet and full of joy; could it be something good is about to happen?"
Upon hearing what Qi Ling said, Bai Liyan frowned and put on a serious face, "You came over here early in the morning just to tease me."
"This isn’t teasing, it’s concern. You’re my idol, naturally I care about everything about you," Qi Ling laughed, making up an excuse for himself.
Bai Liyan ignored him.
Qi Ling was used to not being serious.
After finishing work around one in the afternoon, they left the research institute, Qi Ling following Bai Liyan, "I just came back from City A."
"Oh." Mentioning City A, his heart always had a tug in certain places because he knew Ji Yunhuan was there.
But fortunately, Bai Liyan could control himself well now.
He tried not to think about matters concerning Ji Yunhuan.
Yet Qi Ling had to bring it up in front of him, "I met my third sister-in-law. She’s recently beautiful, so beautiful. My third brother is really lucky to have found such a gorgeous woman, seems like she’ll never age."
"Why say these things?" Bai Liyan was no longer like before, getting all excited when someone mentioned Ji Yunhuan, instead he was very calm.
He looked at Qi Ling calmly, as if Ji Yunhuan was no longer his Achilles’ heel.
Qi Ling was also helpless, "Ah, I said the wrong thing, don’t be mad."
They came out of the research institute and saw Gu You standing there from afar.
Still with long hair, a gentle demeanor, seeing Gu You, Qi Ling asked, "Where does this beauty come from, really pretty."
Qi Ling was about to go up and flirt when Bai Liyan grabbed his collar. He seriously added beside Qi Ling, "My girlfriend!"
"..." This was Qi Ling’s first time seeing Gu You.
Although he had guessed Bai Liyan might have another woman, actually seeing it was another kind of scenery.
In this circle, two stories circulated, one being Qi Cheng and Ji Yunhuan’s love story, and another was naturally Ji Yunhuan and Bai Liyan’s grievances. Their triangle story was retold over and over again by those uninformed, with all sorts of versions.
Their story became more tangled than a novel.
So it was really hard to imagine the Bai Liyan, who loved Ji Yunhuan to madness, already had another woman by his side.
Even Qi Ling thought Bai Liyan couldn’t possibly like another woman.
He had seen how Bai Liyan used to look at Ji Yunhuan, it was as if she had already taken root in his soul.
Bai Liyan had already walked beside Bai Liyan, looking at the distant handsome man and beauty combination, Qi Ling laughed, maybe this is reality, even a man like Bai Liyan who seems disconnected from worldly matters would eventually choose reality, marry a woman he doesn’t love.
All the passionate love stories will end, leaving only those painful memories that occasionally come to mind.
Thinking about it, a sadness emerged in his gaze.
The sun shone on his head, warm waves, yet he smelled waves of heartache.
Gu You looked at Bai Liyan, complaining, "Do you know how long I’ve been waiting for you outside? Blown the wind and sunbathed for so long, and you haven’t said a single caring word to me."
Bai Liyan looked at her and smiled, "Then what do you want me to say?"
"You should say, ’Baby, you’ve worked hard.’ ’Dear, next time just call.’ You know, things like that," Gu You said, as if it was completely reasonable, leaving Bai Liyan momentarily surprised.
After a while, the quiet car interior finally resounded with Bai Liyan’s voice, "Gu You, did you forget to take your medication before going out today?"
"..." Gu You glared fiercely at Bai Liyan, "You really are the least gentle boyfriend in the world, I shouldn’t be with you. I regret being coaxed by you that day."
Because Auntie wasn’t well, but she particularly liked Gu You, Bai Liyan suggested that Gu You become his girlfriend.
Gu You was a good kid, naturally unwilling to make Auntie sad, so she temporarily put aside the excessive things Bai Liyan did to her.
But who knew...
She felt Bai Liyan wasn’t affectionate towards her at all!
Bai Liyan listened to Gu You’s words, his eyes filled with amusement, no matter how tired he was, as long as he talked to her, watched her throw a little tantrum, his mood would get better.
Gu You was looking out the car window sulking, when a pair of hands clasped hers.
She turned her head, looking at the hand holding hers, surprised, looking at Bai Liyan.
Bai Liyan looked at her tenderly and asked seriously, "Is this ’Dear’ enough?"
Gu You looked at his earnest expression and burst into laughter. Looking at Bai Liyan, although he always said things that annoyed her, it was clear he was really slowly changing.
