âIâm healed now.â
He muttered, each word distinct and measured.
With his wounds healed, she was free to express her thoughts, without further worry or restraint because of his injury.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
ââ¦â
Qin Youxuanâs body trembled, she stood still without turning around.
âThe wounds just healed; the doctor said you still need restâ¦â
âSo, once I am completely healed, you can just leave, is that it? Is this your way of solving things?â Dan Hanjie growled, rising abruptly from the chair and yanking her toward him.
âI donât like explaining, but since you want to hear, I am willing to explain until youâre satisfied. Qin Youxuan, donât think you can use any excuses to get away from me!â
Dan Hanjieâs domineering declaration and his firm tone of voice left Qin Youxuan completely stunned.
âDan Hanjie, can I return to the Qin Family for a while? Perhaps also meet Jin Chenye.â Qin Youxuanâs voice was low, without much emotional fluctuation.
âThis time he helped me, I owe him a thank you.â
âI am the one who did most of the work. Why havenât you thought about thanking me!â Dan Hanjie tightened his grip on her hand, gritting his teeth.
ââ¦â
Qin Youxuan was speechless, her bones nearly crushed by his squeeze.
Does such a violent man need a word of thanks?
âDid you find who posted the pictures? Was it Meng Ziqi?â Qin Youxuan suddenly asked, her cat-like eyes staring at him.
ââ¦â
Dan Hanjie hesitated for a second, taken aback by her sudden question.
A glint of recognition flashed in his eyes, and with a bland tone, he responded, âNo, he got away.â
ââ¦â
Qin Youxuan lowered her gaze.
He got awayâ¦
She still wanted to find that person and ask him. He knew so much; did he know who her biological father was?
Qin Mo only told her that her biological father was dead. But even he didnât know who her biological father really was.
âThe past is the past. He was not important, why go after him?â
Dan Hanjieâs eyes were deep, his loose lips moving slightly as he stared intently at Qin Youxuanâs face.
Trying to read her.
âI donât want to pursue him. I just have a few questions to ask him. If we canât find him, so be it.â The atmosphere around Qin Youxuan seemed to rise at her words. She turned her head to look at him, puzzled.
âI will have people continue the search.â Dan Hanjie tightened his hold on her hand, gently squeezing her soft fingers.
âWhat happened with your injury?â Qin Youxuanâs eyes flickered, she turned around, and her gaze landed on his chest.
ââ¦â
Dan Hanjie frowned as if he were pondering.
âYou donât have to answer me if you donât want to, but donât lie again.â
ââ¦â
Damn it, he was already on her blacklist. The previous issues had not been resolved yet, and now there was a new one.
Dan Hanjie gritted his teeth furiously, âI stabbed myself.â
ââ¦What did you say?â
Qin Youxuanâs beautiful eyes widened like copper bells, looking at him incredulously.
Why would he stab himself for no reason?
Almost instinctively, Qin Youxuanâs hand reached out, landing straight on his forehead.
âI donât have a fever!â
Dan Hanjie was annoyed, biting his teeth. He grabbed her hand.
ââ¦â
Then why would he do that?
Looking at his frustrated face, Qin Youxuan suddenly felt like laughing.
âCanât you tell me?â Qin Youxuan asked tentatively.
âThe debt paid to the Bai Family, itâs settled.â His response was rough, almost a growl. Finishing, he grasped Qin Youxuanâs hand and started moving towards the room.
âDan Hanjie, slow down. I canât keep upâ¦â
