Married to My Ex-Fiancé's Cousin-Chapter 926: Can’t Drive Her Away

Chapter 926: Chapter 926: Can’t Drive Her Away
"Really, don’t do this." He felt quite uneasy because even though he made her this upset, she was still being so good to him.
"Can’t you let me do this small thing for you?"
Cheng Yanxi looked at Qi Cheng with disappointment.
Qi Cheng moved his lips but swallowed back what he wanted to say, seeing the pitiful look in her eyes.
Just then, Yangyang walked in and immediately became unhappy when he saw Cheng Yanxi.
"Yangyang." Cheng Yanxi greeted Yangyang softly.
"Bad woman." Yangyang looked at Cheng Yanxi rudely, finally understanding why Ji Yunhuan was upset.
Cheng Yanxi’s face stiffened, but she didn’t get angry. She looked at Yangyang and asked, bewildered, "Why do you hate me so much? I really like you, Yangyang."
"..." Yangyang glanced coldly at Cheng Yanxi, unimpressed by her gentle demeanor. He just disliked this woman for no reason. Yangyang looked at Qi Cheng, who asked, "What are you here for?"
"I’m here to see if you’re feeling better." Yangyang looked seriously at Qi Cheng, "It seems you’re fine!"
"..." Although the other party was just a child, Qi Cheng not only saw indifference in his eyes but also criticism.
What a little devil...
But seeing Yangyang made Qi Cheng think of Ji Yunhuan.
Cheng Yanxi came over last night, and he hadn’t seen Ji Yunhuan since then. It made him worry—could she be... angry again?
Qi Cheng got out of bed. Cheng Yanxi watched him, "Where are you going? If you want food, I can have someone bring it up for you."
She hoped Qi Cheng would stay and rest well in his room, instead of always running around.
"I have something to do." Thinking about the possibility of Ji Yunhuan being upset made Qi Cheng restless.
He went downstairs and, sure enough, saw Ji Yunhuan sitting there with a cold expression, flipping through a newspaper. But she couldn’t even concentrate on the newspaper, and was about to crumple it up when she looked up and saw Qi Cheng standing there...
Her entire demeanor softened immediately. She looked at him and calmly tossed the newspaper into the trash can before sitting back down,
yet Ji Yunhuan didn’t start a conversation with Qi Cheng.
Qi Cheng walked down and, seeing she ignored him, asked, "Are you really mad?"
Ji Yunhuan noticed his indifferent demeanor and gave a self-mocking laugh, "What do I have to be angry about?"
Qi Cheng sat down, looking at Ji Yunhuan, "I feel like you’re mad."
"Yes, I’m mad." Since he noticed, Ji Yunhuan didn’t hide it from him, "You promised to clarify your relationship with Cheng Yanxi to me. And what did you do? You let her stay in your room overnight last night."
Thinking of this made Ji Yunhuan extremely upset, "Did you ever consider how I’d feel about your actions? You two are so openly... right in front of me..."
"It was a different situation yesterday." Cheng Yanxi kept crying, and Qi Cheng really didn’t find an opportunity to make her leave. She fell asleep, so he just let her be! After all, Cheng Yanxi always used to take care of him day and night before, and he didn’t think it was a big deal. In his heart, he had nothing for Cheng Yanxi.
"I just don’t want to talk to you." Ji Yunhuan was extremely upset, "Qi Cheng, when you’re in front of me, you always sweet-talk to deceive me, but every time Cheng Yanxi appears, you disregard my feelings."
Time and again, Ji Yunhuan couldn’t take it anymore.
She couldn’t just try to learn to be considerate of him while he deliberately provoked her, right?
Qi Cheng felt helpless seeing Ji Yunhuan so sad and didn’t know how to defend himself, so he conceded, "Alright, it’s all my fault. But... last night, I did make it clear to Yanxi."
"Make what clear?" Ji Yunhuan had no more hope for this man.
"I told her that the person I love is you, and that I’ll be with you in the future."
From his expression, he didn’t seem like he was lying. Ji Yunhuan decided to believe him for now, and her expression improved a bit, "What did she say?"
"She said she’d leave once I’ve fully recovered."
"That’s impossible!" Ji Yunhuan knew exactly what Cheng Yanxi was up to as soon as she heard, "She’s staying by your side to create opportunities for herself; she’s not planning to let you go, right?"
"So, what should I do?" Qi Cheng said, "I did refuse, but she doesn’t agree."
Cheng Yanxi cried the entire night over this, and Qi Cheng still felt a headache.
Yet he couldn’t be too harsh with Cheng Yanxi.
"So, you’re deciding to let her stay by your side?" Ji Yunhuan asked incredulously.
Qi Cheng didn’t reply.
She frowned, not knowing what to say to Qi Cheng, but she knew he was soft-hearted towards Ji Yunhuan.
The crux was Cheng Yanxi...
If Qi Cheng had already told her he wanted to be with Ji Yunhuan, and she still said such things, Ji Yunhuan could only interpret it as Cheng Yanxi not wanting to give up.
She must believe that as long as she stays by Qi Cheng, there’s still a chance!
That woman is so scheming.
Qi Cheng told Ji Yunhuan, "She wants to stay, and I can’t drive her away, not to mention Zhou Yixiu..."
"Forget it, I knew you couldn’t bear to let her go. Whenever she acts coyly, you can’t handle it," Ji Yunhuan said disappointedly.
Qi Cheng sighed and, to prevent Ji Yunhuan from getting angry, promised, "I’ll try to persuade her to leave as soon as possible, okay?"
"..."
His innocent look seemed quite troubled, and Ji Yunhuan didn’t want to make things hard for him. "You decide, but... don’t expect me to be friendly towards her."
"Is that necessary?" Qi Cheng said, "Just treat her like a normal friend; there’s no need to make things difficult for her."
Yangyang was always making it hard for Cheng Yanxi, which made Qi Cheng somewhat unhappy.
Ji Yunhuan sarcastically said, "What, are you feeling sorry for her?"
"How would you feel if I bullied your friends?" Qi Cheng asked back.
Ji Yunhuan pouted, "You disliked Bai Liyan before!"
Why shouldn’t she dislike Cheng Yanxi?
Moreover, even now, Cheng Yanxi was pursuing Qi Cheng, but Bai Liyan wasn’t.
Qi Cheng felt at a loss for words, "Fine, I can’t argue with you."
"You don’t even have a point. If it weren’t for your amnesia, I really wouldn’t let you off." She’s just more sympathetic toward him now, so she doesn’t want to argue with him at this time.
"Yes," Qi Cheng resignedly said.
Ji Yunhuan asked, "Are you hungry?"
"Not hungry."
"I’ll get you breakfast." Ji Yunhuan noticed Qi Cheng was still in his pajamas; he hadn’t even changed before coming downstairs. She went to the kitchen to instruct the maid, then accompanied Qi Cheng back upstairs.
Of course, she was petty enough not to let Qi Cheng go back to his bedroom. Ji Yunhuan hated when Qi Cheng even glanced at Cheng Yanxi; each look he gave to another woman felt like a wound to her.
