CHAPTER 883: CHAPTER 883: ONLY ONE PERSON IN MY HEART

"..." To be honest, Bai Liyan meant well. He didn’t want Gu You to see him busying himself over Ji Yunhuan, because that way Gu You would easily misunderstand.

But his words sounded too indifferent to Gu You.

Gu You looked at Bai Liyan in disbelief, "As soon as Qi Cheng disappears, you’re eager to get rid of me, aren’t you? Am I bothering you and Ji Yunhuan?"

Bai Liyan was at a loss as to why she would say such things, "Gu You, you’ve always been sensible, so why are you being unreasonable now? With something as big as what’s happening with Qi Cheng, is this the time to cause a scene?"

"The Qi Family can help with the search; do they need you for it?" Her concern for Bai Liyan was because she liked him so much!

She liked him so much that she was afraid that in an instant, he would no longer belong to her.

Because he had liked Ji Yunhuan for so long, mentioning Ji Yunhuan made Gu You truly uneasy.

"...The situation is very complicated, and I don’t know how to explain it to you. Qi Cheng and I are brothers; if something happens to him, I can’t just ignore it."

"If that’s really the case, why did you compete with him for Ji Yunhuan in the first place?" Gu You thought that everything Bai Liyan was doing now was possibly just to win Ji Yunhuan’s favor.

After all, with Qi Cheng not around, he could take advantage of the situation.

To Bai Liyan, past events were emotional burdens, were wounds. He looked at her with disappointment, "If you’re so unreasonable, then leave! I misjudged you before. Irrational words like that aren’t something I expected from you."

The affairs between him, Qi Cheng, and Ji Yunhuan shouldn’t be used by Gu You to attack him.

He wanted to be with Gu You to forget the past, yet she insisted on bringing it up.

Gu You said, "So you really don’t want me anymore?"

"..." Bai Liyan fell silent without speaking, and seeing his expression, Gu You left.

Ji Yunhuan was still having dinner when she saw Gu You come in.

Ji Yunhuan was a bit surprised to see her, "Gu You, what brings you here?"

Gu You was in a terrible mood; because of Ji Yunhuan, she felt apart from Bai Liyan.

She looked at Ji Yunhuan, "I heard Mr. Qi is in trouble, so I came by to see if there’s anything I can help with."

Gu You wasn’t a harsh person and wouldn’t blame Ji Yunhuan for her own issues.

Now, while looking at Ji Yunhuan, she didn’t let on that she was unhappy.

Ji Yunhuan also wasn’t in the mindset to read others, so she said to Gu You, "Have a seat."

Gu You looked at Ji Yunhuan, "If there’s anything I can help with, just let me know; no need to be polite with me."

Ji Yunhuan appreciated the concern at this time, "If needed, I’ll speak up, but there’s nothing now."

Besides having Bai Liyan helping, the Su Family is also aiding in the search for Qi Cheng.

Ji Yunhuan believed that with the three families searching together, they would eventually find Qi Cheng.

It’s just that...

The one she feared the most was Zhou Yixiu. He could do anything. If Qi Cheng was in his hands, he might take this opportunity to harm Qi Cheng.

By then, even if they found Qi Cheng, would he still be the Qi Cheng from her past?

Moreover, Qi Cheng might already be injured. Otherwise, Zhou Yixiu couldn’t have taken control of him, and she was terrified that without her by Qi Cheng’s side, he might not hold out.

Thinking too much about these things gave her a headache.

In her heart, she felt truly uneasy.

Seeing her so uneasy, Gu You understood that Ji Yunhuan was having a hard time and offered comfort, "Mr. Qi will definitely be fine. Don’t worry too much! Anyway, Bai Liyan also said he would help with the search."

Ji Yunhuan looked at Gu You, "Did Bai Liyan send you here?"

"No, I just wanted to come and see for myself." Gu You’s expression was somewhat odd.

Being equally tormented by love for so long, Ji Yunhuan suddenly understood her thoughts, "Did you and he have a fight?"

Lately, Bai Liyan’s relationship with Gu You was good, as Ji Yunhuan had heard from the auntie.

Knowing it was likely that Bai Liyan would marry Gu You, she didn’t want them to quarrel.

Gu You shook her head.

She didn’t want to admit it to herself; Ji Yunhuan guessed it must be related to her.

She explained, "Are you upset because Bai Liyan is helping with my matters?"

"..." Turmoil flashed in Gu You’s eyes.

Ji Yunhuan said, "Gu You, it’s impossible between me and Bai Liyan. If we were going to be together, it wouldn’t have taken until now."

"But..." It was rare for Ji Yunhuan to bring up the subject, and Gu You was somewhat agitated, "He likes you a lot. I don’t know why, but I know I shouldn’t be jealous at this time, but since Mr. Qi is in trouble, I really..."

Fearing that Qi Cheng might not return, while Ji Yunhuan and Bai Liyan might rekindle old feelings in his absence.

She remembered meeting Ji Yunhuan for the first time and feeling comfortable asking her about her thoughts on Bai Liyan, and now, but having truly fallen for the man, her jealousy showed.

A woman’s heart can be small; it can’t tolerate a grain of sand. When she likes someone, she hopes he’ll only like her, belong solely to her.

Once she falls in love, she fears abandonment, fears her loved one will leave.

Before she loved this person, she hoped she could face the relationship with an open heart, but now...

She truly felt sad, for Bai Liyan’s indifference, and for her own jealousy.

Ji Yunhuan didn’t expect that she would need to comfort someone else at this time, "If one day, Qi Cheng really can’t come back, I won’t be with Bai Liyan. You can rest assured about that."

If Qi Cheng weren’t around, she would be even less likely to leave him, not betray him. If it weren’t for their two children, she wouldn’t even mind dying with him.

Gu You was a bit dazed, as a single remark from Ji Yunhuan, spoken casually, shocked her.

She always knew Ji Yunhuan liked Qi Cheng, but also thought they were like any other couple. It was at this moment that she sensed Ji Yunhuan’s intense feelings for Qi Cheng.

This had nothing to do with Bai Liyan’s presence.

Even if Bai Liyan were great to her, she wouldn’t betray Qi Cheng.

Because that man had long become her everything.

Gu You apologized, "I’m sorry, Sister Yunhuan."

She felt ashamed of her own shallowness, her jealousy, for underestimating Ji Yunhuan’s feelings for Qi Cheng.

She actually thought Ji Yunhuan might return to Bai Liyan due to Qi Cheng’s troubles, but such a thing could never happen!

"Why are you apologizing?"

"I was wrong, suspecting things about you and Bai Liyan without knowing anything."
