CHAPTER 888: CHAPTER 888: HE IS SEVERELY INJURED

"Hmm." Ji Yunhuan didn’t expect Qi Mo to be so concerned about the company’s affairs.

On the phone, Qi Mo’s voice sounded extremely angry, "You’re really too much, you didn’t even ask my opinion."

"The company was just sold to Bai Liyan, not anyone else. If you want, you can continue working. If not, no one will force you."

"Really?" Hearing it was sold to Bai Liyan, Qi Mo’s attitude softened a bit, after all, Bai Liyan was someone trustworthy to the Qi Family.

"Hmm." Ji Yunhuan said, "Is there anything else?"

"No."

"Then I’ll hang up."

Ji Yunhuan hung up the phone, sat on the sofa, and Yangyang came downstairs, walked up to her, looking at her with concern, "You’re back."

"Hmm, I’m back." Despite feeling exhausted and weary inside, Ji Yunhuan still smiled facing her son.

Yangyang walked over, climbed onto the sofa, knelt beside Ji Yunhuan, "Very tired?"

"No."

"I know you’re very tired." Yangyang said, "Even though Dad isn’t back, I’ll protect you."

Listening to Yangyang’s words, Ji Yunhuan smiled, "Thank you, son."

Those two sentences from her son made her mood a lot better.

Yangyang said, "Dad will come back, he’s not someone who breaks promises. Since he’s promised, he’ll definitely return."

"Hmm, I believe too, he will come back." Warmth appeared in Ji Yunhuan’s eyes, it’s nice to be comforted by Yangyang.

Yangyang reached out, hugged Ji Yunhuan, and gave her a loving hug.

In the evening, Bai Liyan was having dinner with Gu You. The dinner was cooked by Gu You, and strictly speaking, this was the first time Bai Liyan ate the meal prepared by Gu You. She didn’t want Bai Liyan to think she couldn’t handle something as trivial as cooking. Although Gu You was a daughter of the Yun Family, she actually didn’t grow up with them but lived with her grandmother. The family’s conditions weren’t very good, just average!

The grandmother was a great cook, influenced by her, Gu You could cook excellent dishes.

It’s just that after she started drawing comics, she had very little time.

That’s why Bai Liyan got the illusion she was very lazy.

"Try it, see how it tastes." Gu You looked at Bai Liyan proudly, "I made it all, I think after you taste it, you’ll love me even more."

Bai Liyan picked up his chopsticks and seriously tasted a bite of the dish.

Gu You impatiently asked, "How is it?"

"Pretty good." Bai Liyan was really a bit surprised, he sized up Gu You, "I really didn’t see it, your cooking is quite good."

"Of course." Gu You said, "Before my grandmother left, she taught me a lot. It’s a pity you never got to taste her cooking, it was really delicious."

At this point, even Gu You started drooling.

Listening to her, Bai Liyan couldn’t help but laugh, "Is it really that good?"

"Mm-hmm-hmm."

Bai Liyan didn’t doubt Gu You, because Gu You’s cooking was really good. If not for her grandmother’s influence, she couldn’t have cooked such amazing dishes.

He had underestimated her before.

When he heard she’d cook, his instinct was to think she’d make something atrocious.

Gu You saw Bai Liyan eating seriously and quietly asked, "Don’t you feel you’re getting a great deal by falling in love with me?"

"..." Bai Liyan looked at this narcissistic woman, "As a girl, can’t you not act like a tomboy all the time? Where’s your grace?"

"Oh." Gu You murmured a response and didn’t discuss it further.

They ate quietly for a while, and Bai Liyan heard Gu You ask, "Why didn’t you tell Sister Yunhuan you bought her company just to help her?"

The company under Ji Yunhuan was certainly not going to last, and given the relationship between Bai Liyan and Ji Yunhuan, if he openly tried to help, there would definitely be gossip.

But if he bought the company, no one would dare openly oppose Bai Liyan.

Even if Zhou Yixiu wanted to continue targeting Ji Yunhuan’s company, he’d have to think twice about whether it was necessary.

Bai Liyan said, "There’s nothing to explain."

Gu You said, "I’ve noticed you’re really cold towards her."

"Don’t you like me this way? If I were gentle to her, wouldn’t you be jealous? Little vinegar jar."

"Bai Liyan." Gu You looked at Bai Liyan seriously, "You still like Ji Yunhuan, don’t you? Even though you’re with me now, I know deep inside, you still have feelings for her."

"You’re overthinking."

"You’re deliberately acting cold, not wanting your actions to be misunderstood by her."

Because especially at this time, when Qi Cheng isn’t around, reputation is so important to Ji Yunhuan.

Even Gu You worried there might be a chance Bai Liyan and Ji Yunhuan would get back together, others would more likely think so.

Bai Liyan being cold to Ji Yunhuan was just another way of protecting her.

Bai Liyan said, "You’re really overthinking."

Gu You said, "I won’t be jealous anymore. This proves my judgment is good, and when one day you love me that way, I’ll be very, very happy."

"..." Bai Liyan gave this cheesy woman a glance and reminded, "Grace."

Gu You’s face was full of delight, "Actually, thinking about it, I’m really lucky."

"Lucky about what?"

"If Sister Yunhuan had chosen you back then, there wouldn’t have been a chance for me. How could I be with you now?"

Bai Liyan didn’t respond.

Gu You said, "Are you upset that I brought up something that makes you sad?"

Bai Liyan actually didn’t like discussing Ji Yunhuan with Gu You.

It should be said, no man likes to mention someone they liked in front of their girlfriend.

Of course, if he didn’t care about this woman, Bai Liyan wouldn’t consider these things!

-

In the evening, after taking care of the two kids, Bai Liyan had just lain down when he received a text message from an unfamiliar number, but upon seeing the photo in the message, he sat up quickly in shock.

In the photo was a hospital room, filled with various medical supplies, and a man lying quietly on the bed, looking critically ill.

Although part of the face was covered with gauze, so it wasn’t clearly visible, long association still made Ji Yunhuan recognize at a glance, it was Qi Cheng, the person she had been worrying about every day.

The sudden photo made all of Ji Yunhuan’s fatigue of the day vanish without a trace, and her tears quickly fell.

Soon, a call came from that strange number.

Without a doubt, it was Zhou Yixiu’s voice inside, "See, I wasn’t lying to you, was I?"
