Married to My Ex-Fiancé's Cousin-Chapter 684: The One Who Saved Her_1

Ji Yunhuan struggled for a moment, but found herself unable to move in Zhou Yixiu’s arms. Zhou Yixiu was not an easy person to deal with. Ji Yunhuan was almost certain that all her bodyguards combined were no match for him.

His body seemed like an impenetrable wall.

"Are you trying to seduce me by moving around?" Zhou Yixiu’s words were filled with mockery. Ji Yunhuan looked at her wrist, which he had grabbed. "Zhou Yixiu, aren’t you afraid Qi Cheng will kill you?"

"Qi Cheng?" Zhou Yixiu’s lips curled up as if hearing a humorous joke. "I might have been worried before, but now, does he even have the time to deal with you?"

"..." Even Zhou Yixiu seemed to know that Qi Cheng’s attitude towards her had recently taken a turn for the worse.

Ji Yunhuan frowned. She felt that things were not that simple.

What kind of problem had Qi Cheng encountered?

Zhou Yixiu said, "With a woman like you, without the label of a man, do I need to remind you how many people have their eyes on you? In that case, why not consider my proposal? I only need one month..."

"Dream on!" Ji Yunhuan stomped hard on his foot. Zhou Yixiu seized her slender wrist. "Aren’t you afraid I’ll break your hand?"

"It’s not the first time; I’ve never been afraid!" Although the mere thought of such pain was unbearable, what was harder to endure was the teasing from the man in front of her.

One had to admit that sometimes women could not compete with men. For instance, now she could do nothing to Zhou Yixiu.

She could even end up half-crippled again.

Zhou Yixiu chuckled and said, "You look incredibly irresistible when you’re angry!"

He smiled and leaned down to kiss her. It seemed he was sure Qi Cheng wouldn’t care about Ji Yunhuan, which made him more reckless!

Ji Yunhuan bit her lip, clenching her fists together. Just as Zhou Yixiu was about to kiss her—

"Xiu!" A voice suddenly interrupted Zhou Yixiu’s actions.

The voice sounded somewhat familiar to Ji Yunhuan. But being so infuriated by Zhou Yixiu, she didn’t have time to think. Zhou Yixiu released her, straightened his jacket, and smiled at the newcomer. "I’ve been waiting for you."

"I just ran into a beauty pestering me for my number, so I got delayed." The speaker walked over.

Ji Yunhuan turned her head, and she and the newcomer met eyes. Ji Yunhuan froze, her mind turning blank.

Even the anger that had brewed because of Zhou Yixiu vanished without a trace in an instant.

"Yunhuan!" The newcomer only paused briefly before immediately calling her name.

His voice helped Ji Yunhuan regain some sense. "You are..."

Though she had an answer in her heart, she still dared not confirm blindly. After all, that person had left so many years ago.

His warm eyes carried a hint of disappointment. "It seems you don’t remember me?"

At that moment, Ji Yunhuan felt a string in her heart snap.

She gazed at the man in front of her. He wore a light gray suit, under which a white shirt made his skin appear very fair. Although he seemed more mature, his gentle and elegant demeanor had not changed.

It was like sunlight suddenly appearing before her eyes, making it hard to open them!

He was still very good at controlling his emotions. He didn’t seem sad that Ji Yunhuan didn’t recognize him but looked curiously at Zhou Yixiu, who had just been bullying her. "Xiu, what were you doing just now?"

Although his smile was as harmless as ever, Zhou Yixiu still felt the pressure emanating from him.

Zhou Yixiu guiltily said, "Just joking around."

He chuckled, his voice still warm like the sunshine. "You can eat recklessly but not joke recklessly. If it happens again, I’ll be angry!"

"Yes, sorry." Zhou Yixiu looked at Ji Yunhuan. His attitude had completely changed from when he had faced her just now.

Normally, Ji Yunhuan might have taken this opportunity to teach Zhou Yixiu a lesson to exact revenge. But today, she didn’t have the energy for it.

The man she had thought dead all these years had reappeared. He stood before her alive, still as sunny and gentle as before...

Although she was reluctant to believe it, the person in front of her was indeed Su Molang!

How could he still be alive?

"Let me see you out." Su Molang said gently.

Ji Yunhuan moved her lips, still in shock, unable to make a sound.

Zhou Yixiu stood outside the elevator, looking at the two of them. "Then I won’t disturb you!"

"Are you really Su Molang?" After a while in the silent elevator, Ji Yunhuan felt her breath nearly stop from the tension and finally voiced her doubt.

Su Molang looked at her with a smile. "Whoever you think I am, that’s who I am."

"But..." Ji Yunhuan really couldn’t explain the situation before her. "Weren’t you already..."

"Dead?" Su Molang calmly said the two words Ji Yunhuan couldn’t bring herself to say. He serenely replied, "It’s a long story. Sometimes things happen unexpectedly. Just..." He looked at her apologetically. "Sorry, I came back too late."

Su Molang’s reappearance brought a wave of oppression to Ji Yunhuan’s heart. If his death hadn’t happened back then, her parents wouldn’t have encountered such setbacks, nor chosen such a tragic end.

Now, after all these years, he had come back.

So suddenly, how should she face him now?

"Have you eaten? Let’s have a meal together?" Su Molang’s voice helped Ji Yunhuan slowly control herself.

Ji Yunhuan replied, "I’ve already eaten."

She was eager to get away from this man and find a place to calmly think about these issues.

At the entrance, the driver had already opened the car door for Ji Yunhuan. She quickly said, "It’s quite late today. I have something to do at home, so I’ll head back first!"

Su Molang stood in front of the car and gently said, "Then go home early. Good night!"

Ji Yunhuan didn’t dare look at him. She got into the car as if fleeing.

Su Molang stood at the hotel entrance, watching her leave. Ji Yunhuan sat in the car, secretly glancing at him. Under the light, his silhouette was clear. So he was really back, and this was not an illusion...

Ji Yunhuan, feeling a bit chaotic, told the driver, "Go to Qi Garden."

At the gate, the guard stopped Ji Yunhuan again.

After Huai Xi was refused entry last time, Ji Yunhuan hadn’t been back here. Apparently, Qi Cheng hadn’t lifted her ban, so the guard’s attitude remained as before. Feeling annoyed, Ji Yunhuan saw Qi Cheng’s car pull up.

"Ms. Ji, why are you here?" Assistant Gao got out of the car.

"I’m here to see Qi Cheng. I have something to tell him." She couldn’t hold it in any longer on the way here.
