Ye Ronghuan turned his feet and went to the living room.

"Why are you back now?"

Ji Qinghe stepped forward and hugged her, took her to sit on the sofa with her, touched her belly, and said, "I miss you and the baby, so I came back early, aren't you happy?"

"Where do you see I'm unhappy?"

"If you're happy, shouldn't you rush up and hug me?" why are you still asking me like that?" Ji Qinghe said a little depressed.

“…… It's not time to get off work yet, so I can't ask?"

"Okay, okay, how could it not work. Ji Qinghe hugged her and rubbed, "The company is fine, I might as well go home to accompany you if I stay there." ”

Ye Ronghuan didn't know if what he said was true or not, she didn't participate in the company's affairs, and it was up to him to decide whether he was busy or not. Ji Qinghe casually scooped up the book in front of him, and found that it was a fairy tale, and he was a little speechless, and said clearly: "Grandpa bought it?"

Ye Ronghuan was also a little helpless, and was about to respond, his eyes fell on his wrist, and suddenly froze.

"What's wrong?" Her strange appearance was too obvious, so Ji Qinghe found out.

"Nothing. Ye Ronghuan retracted his gaze casually, "Grandpa bought a box, saying that he was afraid that the baby would be bored, so he asked me to read it to the baby." ”

When Ji Qinghe heard this, he couldn't help but complain: "Just play the piano last time, it's really useful to read fairy tales?"

Ye Ronghuan occasionally echoed him for a sentence or two, but his mind was no longer on this.

In the evening, Ji Qinghe went into the study after dinner as usual, and then returned to the room.

When he entered the bathroom, Ji Qinghe took off his clothes as usual, but the watch on his wrist was not taken off.

Ye Ronghuan said as if unintentionally: "Don't take the watch?"

Ji Qinghe paused for a moment, and then said indifferently: "Forget it, go in and pick it again." ”

As if in a hurry, I hurried into the bathroom.

Closing the bathroom door with his backhand, the expression on Ji Qinghe's face instantly became cold.

He glanced at the watch on his wrist, took it off with a nonchalant expression, and threw it aside.

The watch landed on the table, made a thud, and then slid to the ground, but he didn't look away as if he hadn't seen it.

From the outside, it is exactly the same, but because this is not the one that Ye Rong sent away, it is worthless in his eyes.

The previous one was replaced by him, and the precious place was hidden in the company office.

When he went out, Ye Ronghuan was leaning on the pillow, with a fairy tale book in his hand, but he was already asleep.

She complained about the old man's childish behavior, but she could read this kind of book with relish by herself.

Ji Qinghe stepped forward, carefully took the book in her hand away, then moved her body down, lay down beside her, and pulled the quilt away.

Afterthought, he glanced at the time, it had been a long time, he had been in the bathroom for a long time today, and he didn't realize it, but she had been waiting to fall asleep.

Ji Qinghe kissed her forehead gently, and his fingers gently traced her eyebrows and eyes, and after a while, he closed his eyes and hugged her to sleep contentedly.

In the middle of the night, Ye Ronghuan opened his eyes.

She moved cautiously, and before she could do anything, Ji Qinghe opened her eyes.

"What's wrong?" he asked, in a hoarse voice.

"I'll go to the bathroom. Ye Ronghuan looked at it, there was no watch on his wrist, and there was no watch on the bedside table next to him.

Ji Qinghe helped her sit up, "Be careful, I'll help you go." ”

"I can do it myself. ”

"Don't make a fuss. Ji Qinghe pinched her face and got up to help her put on her shoes.

He is already very proficient in his movements, and it is inconvenient for Ye Ronghuan to get up at night after his body is heavy, but as long as he is around, he will not let her go by himself.

After entering the bathroom, Ye Ronghuan said, "Okay, you go out first." ”

"Still don't let me see it?" Ji Qinghe smiled, Jun's face was still sleepy, he kissed her and muttered in a low voice: "What have I not seen of you?" ”

Ye Ronghuan pushed him away and called him a little annoyed: "Ji Qinghe." ”

Ji Qinghe just went out, and when he closed the door, he said uneasily: "Be careful, if something calls me, I'll be outside." ”

No matter how many times he has passed, he is always so uneasy, and he is careful every time.

Ye Ronghuan also understood his worries, and only then closed the door after answering.

Her gaze fell on the table, where a familiar watch rested.

She walked over, reached out to pick it up, and looked at it carefully for a while, her eyes gradually darkened, and the hand holding the watch was slightly white from the exertion, and the strap hurt her hand.

She didn't buy it for him.

There were a lot of the same styles, but she knew it wasn't.

The one that Ji Qinghe often wears, just a few days ago, she accidentally got a scratch, so small that she couldn't see it if she didn't pay attention, but now it has become a logo, so she can recognize that this is not the watch.

"Rong Huan?wife?" Ji Qinghe called her outside uneasily.

Ye Ronghuan put the things in his hand back and replied quietly: "It's fine." ”

In the morning, Ye Ronghuan and Ji Qinghe got up together.

Ji Qinghe still wanted to press her back, "Why are you getting up so early? ”

"I don't want to sleep. Ye Ronghuan said.

"Why don't you want to sleep?" Ji Qinghe was worried, "Is there something uncomfortable?"

“…… It's been long enough to sleep that long every day, so I don't want to sleep now. Do you think I'm a pig?"

Ji Qinghe didn't think about it and said: "Even if it's a pig, my wife is the cutest pig." ”

Ye Ronghuan wanted to pull his tie and strangle him on the spot.

Feeling the death gaze from her, Ji Qinghe reacted to what he said, and hurriedly remedied: "I didn't mean that, I just want to say, no matter what, you are the cutest!"

Hold her for a long time.

“…… Okay, hurry up and wash up, I'm going to be late for work. ”

When he was getting dressed, Ye Ronghuan stepped forward to tie his buttons and tie in person.

This was a rare thing before, Ji Qinghe was as happy as if he was something, his expression was gentle and indulgent, and he hugged her and said, "I suddenly don't want to go to work." ”

Ye Ronghuan raised his eyes and glanced at him, but he didn't hear it.

The buckle was buttoned, the tie was fastened, and he asked casually, "Where's the watch?"

She was clearly moved that the body in front of her was abnormal for a moment, and then he said casually: "Ah, it seems that I didn't take it out inside, wait for me to take it myself." ”

"In the bathroom?" Ye Ronghuan turned around and went straight into the bathroom without waiting for him to answer, accurately took out the watch on the table, and as soon as he turned around, he just caught a glimpse of Ji Qinghe's expression a little tense.

He seemed to be trying to stop her, but he probably didn't find a good reason.

Ye Ronghuan stepped forward and helped him put it on with his own hands.

Halfway through, she suddenly paused and said, "You seem to have been wearing this one lately......?

"No, I'll just wear this. Ji Qinghe said.

"Why?"

"Because you gave it to me. Ji Qinghe said softly.

"This is what I gave you?" Ye Ronghuan pulled his hand up, frowning a little suspiciously, "Why don't I feel like ......?"

Ji Qinghe's body stiffened for a moment, and then quickly reacted, and said a little sadly: "Why not? You don't remember what you gave me yourself? Could it be that it was chosen randomly at that time?"

Ji Qinghe has improved a lot, and his acting skills have risen a lot, but this is by no means included in front of Ye Ronghuan.

Ye Ronghuan knew him too well, and at the moment she felt a little sad because of this understanding, because she couldn't convince herself that she was thinking too much about all this, and there was nothing wrong with it.

She was just a little probing, and Ji Qinghe's every reaction was telling her that there was something wrong with this.

She told herself in her heart that it might just be that Ji Qinghe lost the watch, and she was afraid that she would be angry, so she bought another one of the same and came back.

But she knew that it was all just self-deception.

If this is the case, how can Ji Qinghe be so weak-minded?

In the end, she just said casually, "Okay, I'll just kid, I chose it myself, can I still recognize it?" and walked out for breakfast. ”

Ji Qinghe was stunned for a moment because of her words.

I chose it myself, can I still not recognize it?

When he left the house and was about to arrive at the company, his mobile phone vibrated a little, Ji Qinghe opened his eyes, glanced out the window, and said, "Stop." ”

He got out of the car and walked into a roadside café.

In the small private room upstairs, Yuan Ruike was already waiting inside.

Seeing Ji Qinghe coming in, she stood up, "Qinghe." ”

She stepped forward and wanted to fall into his arms, but Ji Qinghe avoided it.

If it's Ye Ronghuan-

If it was Ye Ronghuan, he would be happy to take the person into his arms gently, take her to sit down with him, and still sit in his arms, taking the opportunity to hold her and not let go.

But it's not.

Yuan Ruike was a little lost, but he was used to it.

"Have you had breakfast?" I called you some, all to your taste, to see if you like it?" she said softly.

Ji Qinghe glanced at it and didn't appreciate it, "What's the matter?"

He frowned slightly, making no secret of his impatience.

"It's fine. Yuan Ruike looked at his wrist and said, "Do you still like it?"

She tentatively stepped forward, wanting to touch Ji Qinghe's hand.

But before he could touch it, Ji Qinghe avoided it, he untied the watch, threw it in front of her, and made a "bang" sound.

Yuan Ruike picked up the watch, looked at it carefully, and then hooked the corners of his lips again, and said, "If you like it, it's fine." ”

Ji Qinghe glanced at her, and a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes.

It's just a watch, even if he wears it, what if he wears it? It doesn't mean anything, but Yuan Ruike actually took great pains to mark it, if he hadn't compared it carefully, he really wouldn't have found it.

Thinking of this, he suddenly thought of Ye Ronghuan's two words in the morning, which he didn't know whether they were intentional or unintentional, and his eyes sank slightly.

"My cousin's company has a celebration banquet tomorrow night, are you going?" asked Yuan Ruike.

Ji Qinghe didn't answer, he glanced at the time, and said impatiently: "Is there anything else to do? I don't have so much work time to waste." ”

Yuan Ruike's smile was reluctant, "Qinghe, I just want to talk to you well......"

Seeing Ji Qinghe's indifferent face, she was dumbfounded for a moment, and said, "I won't delay your time, I'll go to Aunt Ya and say it's the same." ”

Ji Qinghe turned around and strode away, without looking back, "Just go." ”

"Qinghe!" Ye Ronghuan stepped forward and chased after him for two steps, grabbed his sleeve and explained, "Don't get me wrong, I'm not going to sue, I just want to ask Aunt Ya and ask her if she knows if you want to go......"

Ji Qinghe withdrew his sleeve and glanced at her warningly, "Whatever." ”

Yuan Ruike didn't go to Gu Chengya to sue once or twice, some things were within the limit, he could tolerate them, but some didn't, and it was useless for her to sue.

Looking at the tall back that was getting farther and farther away, Yuan Ruike clenched his fists a little unwillingly, wanting to catch up, but he was afraid of being seen - this place is not far from Ji Qinghe's company, and it is likely to be recognized by the employees of his company.

Of course, she couldn't ask for it, and she even wanted to go to the door now to show off her might to Ye Rong.

But no, if she dares to do this, Ji Qinghe will definitely ignore everything, and when the time comes, Gu Chengya will not be able to do anything with him, and it will be worth the loss.

Ji Qinghe has a bottom line and can't touch it, she knew this for a long time, so Ye Ronghuan doesn't know anything these days.

But...... Come on, days like this are coming to an end.

When Ji Qinghe got off work, he received a call from Gu Chengya.

Leaving the company, he went to Gu Chengya.

When he arrived, the uncle of the Yuan family was not there, and the servants were also sent away, and Gu Chengya was the only one.

"Has the doctor come to see you?" asked Ji Qinghe after sitting down.

"I've seen it, it's much better. Gu Chengya said.

Seeing that she didn't care much, Ji Qinghe couldn't help frowning and said, "I know a few doctors, I'll contact you when I get back to ......"

"No, I don't. Before he finished speaking, he was rejected by Gu Chengya, "It's good now, didn't you listen to me tell you a lot?"

"It's always a good idea to find more doctors. Ji Qinghe said.

"That's how many doctors I go to, as long as I stay in a good mood, don't get angry, don't get irritated, nothing happens. ”

Her demeanor and appearance were very healthy, but she said that she was a sick person, and Ji Qinghe didn't believe it at first, but Gu Chengya found a doctor to diagnose it, and the final result was that she was suffering from depression.

Among the doctors, Ji Qinghe found it himself, and the result was the same, and after a few times, he had to believe it.

Gu Chengya also told him lightly that she had tried to commit suicide several times over the years.

He didn't want to believe this ridiculous statement, but Uncle Yuan was indeed cautious about Gu Chengya, and he was afraid of irritating her by doing anything.

Ji Qinghe felt incredulous, which reminded him of Yun Ming's ex-wife and Ye Ronghuan.

Yun Ming's ex-wife is a madman, she has committed suicide many times, and now she is still in a nursing home, and she almost died Ye Ronghuan.

He had also seen Ye Ronghuan's emotional breakdown, as long as he thought that Gu Chengya would become like that, he was a little unacceptable.

"Don't worry, my symptoms are already mild. Gu Chengya comforted him, "As long as it's good, nothing will happen." ”

Ji Qinghe pursed his lips and didn't speak.

What does it mean to be good?

Is that now?

threatened him with his own safety, forced him to betray Ye Ronghuan, and hooked up with Yuan Ruike.

"How did it become like this?" asked Ji Qinghe.

Gu Chengya smiled and said, "No matter how strong I am, I'm just a woman, how many times can a woman accept betrayal?"

Her expression was in a trance, and Ji Qinghe knew whether she was thinking of his father or the man who took her to elope in the first place.

He didn't know how that man betrayed Gu Chengya, but he knew what kind of harm Ji Zixing had done to her.

Gu Chengya didn't continue, but said: "It's good now, I just hope that he can always be so good, if he does it again...... I probably won't be able to handle it. ”

Ji Qinghe knew that she was talking about the uncle of the Yuan family, and he wanted to ask, since he didn't believe in men like this, since he was hurt so deeply by men, and not once or twice, why did he pin everything on one man?

But what the hell was his mother, he didn't ask in the end.

Gu Chengya's words are not just emotional, she also has other meanings-

"Coco is fine, don't break her heart like that. ”

She hoped that Ji Qinghe would be better to the Yuan family, especially Yuan Ruike.

Ji Qinghe's face turned cold in an instant, and he said in a deep voice: "You obviously know that Rong Huan and I ...... What are you trying to do? Rong Huan and I are about to have children, why do you have to do this? Do you want to destroy a happy family so much?"

He knew that this was a bit heavy, but he couldn't help but say it, because Gu Chengya's behavior was really unreasonable.

Gu Chengya didn't care about his grievances, and said lightly: "Happy family, yes? With Coco, you will also be happy." ”

"What about Rong Huan?!"

Gu Chengya lowered her eyes, was silent for a while, and said, "She will live a happier life without you." ”

Ji Qinghe felt that Gu Chengya was unreasonable, and Gu Chengya didn't intend to explain too much to him, so he only stubbornly said: "It would be better for Rong Huan to leave you." ”

She seemed to be stunned, and she kept saying this to herself in her heart.

Ji Qinghe was worried about her, so he came to see her, but seeing her like this, he had no desire to stay at all.

He stood up, and before he said he was leaving, Gu Chengya said, "By the way, tomorrow night, the He family's banquet, has Coco told you?"

Without waiting for Ji Qinghe to speak, she said, "You go with her." ”

Ji Qinghe said patiently: "I have to work overtime tonight, and I may not have time." ”

Gu Chengya looked up at him and didn't speak.

Ji Qinghe felt frightened when he saw her like this, "Mom......"

Taking a deep breath, he said, "Okay, I'll go." ”

He could almost predict that if he refused at this time, he would probably receive a call from the doctor within half an hour after leaving, saying that her condition had deteriorated.

He tried to find evidence to prove that Gu Chengya's illness was deceived by him, or that it was not so serious at all, but the scar from the last time was still clearly visible, Gu Chengya actually cut the knife on his wrist in front of him, and the fierce and resolute momentum made him still feel frightened when he remembered it, if he hadn't stopped the action a little faster......

Gu Chengya still had bandages on her wrists, Ji Qinghe glanced at it, and then looked away, only to feel that her eyes were stabbed.

Leaving Gu Chengya, he sat in the car and felt an unprecedented tiredness.

After so many years of anticipation, she is finally back.

After waiting for so long, she finally recognized him.

But why did the situation turn out like this?

He didn't know why Gu Chengya had to help Yuan Ruike destroy his family, obviously she also liked Ye Ronghuan like that, he could see that her love for Ye Ronghuan was far greater than Yuan Ruike's.

He was a little dazed and didn't know what to do, did he follow Gu Chengya's will?

Impossible, he could not destroy his family, abandon his lover, and not want his own children because of such a reason.

But what to do?

Qin Guo came to Ye Ronghuan and asked her to go out shopping with her, which made Ye Ronghuan a little surprised.

Qin Guo and her got along well, many banquets before Ji Qinghe was inconvenient, they all asked Qin Guo to take care of her, and many of Ye Ronghuan's connections were introduced to her by Qin Guo.

It's just that after Qin Guo's holiday ended, he went back to school abroad, and the two hadn't seen each other for a long time.

Qin Guo grew a little taller, and hugged her arm when he entered the door, "Sister Rong Huan, I miss you so much!"

"I miss you too. Ye Ronghuan likes her very much, she is about the same age as Ye Hailing, but she has a completely different personality, which makes her feel that she has another sister, "When did you come back?"

The two talked for a while, and Qin Guo talked about today's intention: "It's so boring to come back, everyone has something to do, no one can accompany me, I ordered a set of clothes, I originally decided to get them today, but they don't have time, Sister Rong Huan, can you go with me?" Before Ye Ronghuan could speak, she hugged her arm and shook it, "Let's just go shopping casually, and then come back with the clothes, we won't be tired of you, I promise!"

Ye Ronghuan occasionally went out shopping, Qin Guo begged her like this, of course she had no reason to refuse, and she just hadn't gone out for a few days, so she nodded and agreed.

Qin Guo was overjoyed, chattering all the way in the car, but Ye Ronghuan could see that the little girl seemed to have something on her mind, and always looked at her secretly, looking very entangled.

She thought she was hiding it well, but she didn't know that Ye Ronghuan saw it all.

But Qin Guo didn't say it, so she didn't know and waited for her to confess.

Qin Guo was still a little unable to hold back in the end, and said tentatively: "By the way, Sister Rong Huan, the way you are now, it is very inconvenient for you to attend various occasions with Brother Qinghe, right?

Ye Ronghuan said: "I don't care too much about this, it should be the secretary of his company." ”

"How can you not care? The problem of the female companion must be strictly controlled! Otherwise, what can I do if something goes wrong?"

Ye Rong smiled, "I've seen all the secretaries of his company, and they are all very good people." ”

Qin Guo wanted to speak and stopped: "But what if Brother Qinghe finds someone else?"

"Huh?" Ye Ronghuan looked at her, "It's just a female companion, what's the difference with whom?"

"How can it be indistinguishable?" Qin Guo blurted out, "If you find someone with ill intentions—"
