Chapter 372: 372 I Know You’re Awake

He could scheme against anyone, leaving no trace.

If he had not admitted it himself, she would never have guessed that he had long found out that Meng Ziqi had plotted against Jin Lan, intending to hit a man when he’s down, yet he still allowed Meng Ziqi to go unpunished.

After Jin Lan became comatose, Diwu Zexuan appeared.

Then there was their sudden marriage…

Dan Hanjie, could you tell me what are you planning this time?

Qin Youxuan lay by the bedside, staring intently at the unconscious Dan Hanjie. She tried multiple times to muster the courage to leave, but upon seeing his vulnerable state, she just couldn’t bring herself to move.

Even death row prisoners have a chance to defend themselves, she would wait for him to wake up.

“Miss Qin, Mr. Jie may not wake up for the moment, would you like to go downstairs for a meal?” Yao asked respectfully as he quickly entered the room.

“No need, I don’t want to eat anything.” Qin Youxuan responded indifferently.

On seeing a small suitcase that Yao carried, her eyes widened in surprise.

“This is your suitcase, Miss Qin. I brought it back for you.” Yao put the suitcase down, “If there’s nothing else, I will take my leave.”

Yao walked out.

“What’s the situation outside?” Qin Youxuan suddenly asked, standing up from the chair.

“I mean, the media coverage.”

She was in no way connected to the Qin Family now, and the exaggerated reports even made her feel guilty.

“Rest assured, Miss Qin. No one dares to challenge the Dan Group. The situation now is one-sided. As long as the media keeps whitewashing, public opinion will change. Now we just wait for someone from the Qin family to come forward and clarify, and the storm could come to an end.”

“…”

What if the Qin family does not clarify?

Qin Youxuan’s lips moved slightly, but no words came out.

“No matter what, just do your best, don’t force yourself.” Qin Youxuan said, realising she had no right to ask Jin Chenye to do anything more for her.

Qin Youxuan turned and looked at Dan Hanjie lying on the bed.

When Hanjie heard her voice, his brows twitched, but his eyes remained closed.

“I shall leave now to handle matters.” Yao gave a respectful nod and left.

Qin Youxuan walked over to Hanjie, adjusted his blanket and placed his hand under it.

Just as she was about to let go, her hand was grabbed.

When she tried to pull away, her hand was grasped even tighter.

Qin Youxuan thought he woke up. She instinctively looked up at him, only to see that his eyes were still tightly closed, showing no sign of waking up.

“Dan Hanjie, stop pretending. I know you’re awake.”

Qin Youxuan sat down by the bed, allowing him to hold her hand as she stared at him.

She was staring at him until her eyes got sore, but he still didn’t open his eyes.

Was he really not awake?

Qin Youxuan looked at her hand that was held tightly, giving a silent sigh.

“Dan Hanjie, if you keep pretending, I will get really angry.”

“…”

Her statement was met with silence.

He really wasn’t awake…

Why did she cover him with a blanket? Curse her meddlesome hands.

Her hand being held by him, Qin Youxuan was left with no choice but to lie next to him.

Fearing to press onto his wounds, she maintained a distance and could only sleep on the edge of the bed, risking falling off if she turned over.

Maintaining a stiff posture, she was even more tired by the time she woke up.

“Hmm….”

Qin Youxuan woke up groggily, yawning softly. Just as she was about to get up, she noticed that the hand holding hers was no longer there.

Looking up in a daze, she found herself facing his deep, dark eyes.

So dark, so deep, as if they could drown a person….
