CHAPTER 898: CHAPTER 898: SO BEAUTIFUL IT TAKES YOUR BREATH AWAY

"She’s the only person I know." He’s known Cheng Yanxi for two months and Ji Yunhuan for just one day, so naturally, Cheng Yanxi is more important to him.

His unwavering gaze made Ji Yunhuan release her hand, "Alright then."

Back in the room, after Qi Cheng took his medicine, Cheng Yanxi watched him, "I was gone for just a while, and you’ve gotten so close with Ji Yunhuan?"

Qi Cheng heard Ji Yunhuan’s words and for some reason didn’t feel like explaining, "Hmm."

That ambiguous ’hmm’ made Cheng Yanxi’s heart grow cold, she looked at Qi Cheng, "Did you remember?"

"..." Qi Cheng glanced at Cheng Yanxi, "What?"

"You weren’t listening to me?" Cheng Yanxi was a bit hurt, "As expected, even if you lost your memory, the one you care about most is still Ji Yunhuan. If that’s the case, why did you keep me here? It makes me look like a joke."

Qi Cheng heard her words but remained silent.

Cheng Yanxi said, "You should sleep, I’m going out."

Qi Cheng didn’t stop her from leaving either, after Cheng Yanxi left, he lay on the bed, continuously thinking about Ji Yunhuan.

Early the next morning, Qi Cheng got up very early, and Assistant Gao came to see him at his house. While Qi Cheng was away, Assistant Gao had been quite concerned with the company’s matters.

That night when Qi Cheng returned, they had just met briefly.

Assistant Gao arrived upstairs and saw Qi Cheng dazing in the small lounge on the second floor, "Sir."

Qi Cheng had no deep memory of Assistant Gao, he scrutinized Assistant Gao, "What’s up?"

The look filled with disdain while looking at himself made Assistant Gao feel like the Qi Cheng he knew had returned, he chuckled, "Just came to check on you, are you okay?"

"Sit down." Qi Cheng still maintained courtesy.

Assistant Gao sat down and looked at Qi Cheng, "Is there something troubling you, sir?"

"My own matters." His expression was like, why should I tell you.

Leaving Assistant Gao quite helpless.

"I’m your assistant, nobody knows more about your affairs than I do, you can tell me everything." Assistant Gao asked earnestly to help resolve Qi Cheng’s troubles.

"You know everything?" Qi Cheng was doubtful.

Assistant Gao affirmed, "Except for recently, I know everything from before."

"Really?" Qi Cheng looked at him.

Assistant Gao observed Qi Cheng’s reaction, cautiously guessing, "Is it about Ms. Ji?"

Qi Cheng asked, "I heard I got divorced from her before I lost my memory?"

This question he hadn’t managed to get an answer about from Ji Yunhuan yesterday, and now he finally found an opportunity to ask.

Assistant Gao nodded, but he knew this might not be the answer Qi Cheng was looking for, so he meticulously went through all the issues with Qi Cheng, including how they planned to remarry but were delayed by matters concerning his grandfather.

Assistant Gao was honestly bewildered too; if Qi Cheng really wanted to marry Ji Yunhuan, couldn’t they just register again? But he insisted on making it so grand as if it was their first marriage.

Listening to Assistant Gao, Qi Cheng frowned, "The past me, really loved her so much?"

"More than just that, sir, you were kidnapped by Zhou Yixiu this time also for the sake of your wife. You loved her more than your own life."

"..." Qi Cheng could hardly imagine himself loving a woman that much because with Cheng Yanxi, after being with her for so long, he never felt that deep love for her. Being with her entirely stemmed from knowing she was his girlfriend and wanting to be responsible.

He thought if he stayed with her long enough, he would eventually love her, but unexpectedly...

There ended up being a wife he needed to be responsible for.

Looking at it this way, the one he truly likes should be Ji Yunhuan; otherwise, every time he saw her, he wouldn’t have this feeling.

Assistant Gao accompanied Qi Cheng downstairs, and coincidentally encountered Ji Yunhuan admiring flowers in the garden; since morning, she’d been there, staring blankly at a certain camellia.

Qi Cheng stopped, watching her silhouette, feeling as if time had stood still.

Assistant Gao stood nearby, cautiously observing Qi Cheng’s expression, just like every time before. Whenever Ji Yunhuan stood somewhere, Qi Cheng would look at her with such a deep gaze, and for a moment, Assistant Gao wondered: could it be that Qi Cheng had already remembered?

Otherwise, he wouldn’t be looking at Ji Yunhuan with such eyes.

Or perhaps, whether he remembered or not, his body had already memorized this woman.

"Do you think the lady is beautiful?" Assistant Gao asked beside him.

Qi Cheng responded, "Hmm."

From the first meeting, Qi Cheng thought this woman was beautiful, very beautiful, though pretty too, only Ji Yunhuan had that kind of beauty that left him breathless.

Ji Yunhuan was still lost in thought staring at the flowers when suddenly a voice came from behind, "What are you doing?"

She looked up at Bai Liyan standing in front of her, "Why are you here?"

"To see Qi Cheng." Bai Liyan sized her up, "Zoning out here since early morning, what are you up to?"

"Nothing." Ji Yunhuan lowered her head; the ordeal with Qi Cheng had kept her up all night, and she got up very early.

"Qi Cheng is watching you." Bai Liyan glanced at Qi Cheng standing with Assistant Gao.

Ji Yunhuan was about to turn her head when Bai Liyan stopped her, "Don’t turn around."

"Why?" Ji Yunhuan found his request absurd, thinking that Qi Cheng was watching her, she didn’t even want to say another word to Bai Liyan.

She was afraid Qi Cheng might misunderstand... Even though he’s lost his memory now and wouldn’t remember these things.

Bai Liyan looked at Ji Yunhuan, his expression was very gentle, but his words sounded cold, unfortunately, Qi Cheng couldn’t hear them.

Ji Yunhuan heard Bai Liyan say, "What’s with all the whys in the world?"

"..."

Qi Cheng stood at a distance, watching Ji Yunhuan converse with Bai Liyan.

Even if Ji Yunhuan and Bai Liyan said nothing significant, it reminded him of Yangyang’s words — I will take mom to find a new dad.

Unconsciously, he linked Bai Liyan with the phrase "new dad," therefore, in his eyes, he saw nothing but a pair of cheating lovers.

Ji Yunhuan looked at Bai Liyan’s hand on her shoulder, "Bai Liyan, what are you doing, let me go, if Gu You sees this, you won’t have a good time."

She knew Bai Liyan was serious about Gu You, he was very much in love with Gu You recently, and should not be intending to do anything to hurt Gu You.

Bai Liyan released Ji Yunhuan because by this time, Qi Cheng was already walking over, "What are you doing?"

When she heard his voice, Ji Yunhuan’s heart would become unstable; she turned her head to look at Qi Cheng, and Assistant Gao also greeted Bai Liyan and Ji Yunhuan.
