Chapter 914: Chapter 914: Irresistible Feelings
As soon as Qi Cheng stepped out, Ji Yunhuan stood up, went upstairs to the bedroom, and kicked over a nearby stool.
She didn’t know how she endured it, but when she saw him so eagerly going to see another woman, her heart ached terribly. The feeling of anger filled her, making it almost impossible for her to control herself.
The servant stood at the door, hearing the commotion inside the room, walked in with concern, "Third Young Mistress, are you okay?"
"Get out."
Ji Yunhuan’s expression was very grave; she really felt uncomfortable, yet she had no outlet for her anger.
The sky was already dark. The Qi Family’s car stopped in a district near the university, and Qi Cheng, just wearing a shirt, stepped out of the car. He stood in the night, took out his phone, and started calling Cheng Yanxi.
The phone didn’t respond. He took a step into the narrow alley with his people until someone told him, "Third Master, there’s a phone ringing here."
Qi Cheng followed his entourage over to that side. Sure enough, it was Cheng Yanxi’s ringtone. Being with her every day, he naturally knew what her ringtone sounded like.
This area was very empty, full of abandoned daily rubbish and dilapidated furniture. Cheng Yanxi was hiding among those discarded pieces. Qi Cheng had his people clear the stuff in front, revealing Cheng Yanxi, who originally had exquisite makeup but was now asleep in the corner from waiting too long.
Seeing this, Qi Cheng frowned and softly spoke, "Yanxi."
Cheng Yanxi heard his voice, opened her eyes, looked at Qi Cheng in front of her, and quickly stood up, throwing herself into his arms. Her voice was filled with sadness, "Qi Cheng, I thought I would never see you again."
Before coming here, Qi Cheng hadn’t expected Cheng Yanxi to end up like this.
He asked worriedly, "What happened?"
Otherwise, how could she end up this way when they parted well at school?
Cheng Yanxi said helplessly, "It was Zhou Yixiu. He blamed me for informing your family before, letting you out. He sent people to find me; I was almost caught by him."
As she spoke, her face was full of fear.
Zhou Yixiu was not a good memory for the amnesiac Qi Cheng. After his memory loss, while knowing nothing, Zhou Yixiu never stopped pressuring them.
Therefore, Qi Cheng could greatly understand Cheng Yanxi’s current fear of Zhou Yixiu.
"It’s okay now." Qi Cheng comforted Cheng Yanxi in his arms and naturally didn’t push her away. He hated himself for leaving Cheng Yanxi alone today. Qi Cheng hugged Cheng Yanxi and comforted, "I’m here, nothing will happen."
Cheng Yanxi stayed in Qi Cheng’s arms for a long time before looking up. She gazed at Qi Cheng, "Did you think you would leave me alone?"
Although she saw Zhou Yixiu today, Zhou Yixiu didn’t do anything to her, just warned her a bit, then left.
But Cheng Yanxi feared that Qi Cheng would remember the past and wouldn’t care for her if he did, so she played this act, staying here in this dirty place until now.
Seeing Qi Cheng, he didn’t seem to have remembered, which temporarily relieved her.
Qi Cheng said, "No."
He had seemingly temporarily forgotten Ji Yunhuan, only caring about comforting Cheng Yanxi. After all, he had gone through hardships with Cheng Yanxi and naturally wouldn’t leave her alone. He looked at Cheng Yanxi and said, "In the future, no matter what, I won’t leave you alone."
At least, while he was safe, he would also ensure his own safety.
Qi Cheng helped Cheng Yanxi into the car, took a towel, and handed it to her to wipe her face. Cheng Yanxi wiped her face clean, then looked pitifully at Qi Cheng, "Where did you go today?"
Mentioning today, Qi Cheng naturally thought of Ji Yunhuan.
Thinking of the afternoon spent with Ji Yunhuan, a special emotion welled up inside him. At this moment, looking at Cheng Yanxi in front of him, he felt very guilty and subconsciously lied, "Didn’t go anywhere."
Cheng Yanxi could guess from his eyes that he was most likely with Ji Yunhuan, but confronting Qi Cheng now wouldn’t benefit him.
She put down the towel and said to Qi Cheng, "Do you like Ji Yunhuan?"
This blunt question made Qi Cheng’s heart skip a beat, as if this sentence directly exposed his thoughts in the sunlight.
Cheng Yanxi looked into his eyes and noticed that Qi Cheng didn’t deny it.
Qi Cheng also hated himself; no matter what past he had with Ji Yunhuan, the current him had a girlfriend, yet he fell for Ji Yunhuan at such a time.
He hated himself but found he couldn’t deceive his emotions.
He gazed into Cheng Yanxi’s eyes, neither admitting nor denying.
It’s strange; he should love Cheng Yanxi, but he found he didn’t have the same feelings for Cheng Yanxi as he did for Ji Yunhuan.
To him, Cheng Yanxi was more like a dependent family member. After all, she was the first person he met after waking up, the first person who was kind to him.
Zhou Yixiu, to emphasize Cheng Yanxi’s goodness, manipulated Qi Cheng’s feelings for Cheng Yanxi, frequently tormenting Qi Cheng to make him feel Cheng Yanxi’s importance—the days of confinement felt a lot longer because every time Zhou Yixiu had someone torment him, it was Cheng Yanxi who pleaded for him.
Seeing Qi Cheng actually admit it, Cheng Yanxi’s heart ached fiercely.
How could it be within just a few days?
He actually fell for Ji Yunhuan all over again!
Even though she had spent every day and night with him for months, it turned out to be futile for him.
She looked at Qi Cheng, and said, exceptionally sad, "Is she so excellent that you like her so much, you won’t even lie to me."
"I don’t know why." Qi Cheng said seriously, "Every time I see her, I have a special feeling, like she’s a part of me that’s been taken away. When I can’t see her, I feel sad; when I see her sad, I feel sad too. As long as she’s not around, I always want to see her. Her every move attracts my attention. I’m sorry, Yanxi. I don’t want to be like this, but I really can’t control myself."
If he could, he wouldn’t want to let down the kind Cheng Yanxi, but he really couldn’t control himself.
Hearing Qi Cheng’s words, Cheng Yanxi felt very helpless; it seemed he loved Ji Yunhuan deeply, and from his attitude, it wasn’t what he wanted.
After all, Qi Cheng initially resisted strongly, even being cold to Ji Yunhuan, but eventually, he couldn’t hold back.
