Qin Youxuan was dragged along by him, Dan Hanjie was too strong, and she couldnât get away. Her legs werenât as long as his, so she could only force herself to jog after him.
She kept replaying his words in her head.
Debt to the Bai family was paidâ¦..
What did that mean?
âBang âââ
Dan Hanjie kicked open the bedroom door and pulled Qin Youxuan in front of a cabinet. He opened a drawer.
He pulled out a box.
He opened the box.
A receipt, a guarantee letter, two bottles of medicine, and other assorted itemsâ¦
â⦠Dan Hanjie, you just said you exchanged the life owed to the Bai family, what do you mean? Whereâs Bai Wei? Has she returned to the U.S.?â
Qin Youxuan glanced at the contents of the box but moved the topic back to him.
âNot yet, I had her locked up.â Dan Hanjieâs words were nonchalant, but a deep understanding flashed across his black eyes.
âWhy?â
ââ¦â
Because she touched someone she shouldnât have.
Dan Hanjieâs eyes were devilishly charming as he pulled Qin Youxuan into his arms, his chin resting on her shoulder.
âI began investigating Meng Ziqi after you fell into trouble. This is a bank document from her purchasing illegal drugs from Thailand. Diwu Zexuan was not my arrangement, I never thought about him saving Jin Lan. He found out about our relationship and wanted to meet you, so he came back to the country. Saving Jin Lan was just a by-the-way, as for the case, you forgot, you did not allow me to intervene, wanting Jin Lan to face legal prosecution.â
Dan Hanjieâs voice was indifferent, explaining everything clearly, word by word.
ââ¦â
No wonder, the first time she met Diwu Zexuan she thought he was strange, always hinting at topics she didnât understand.
At that time, she thought Diwu Zexuan was sick, but now it seems that she was just slow in understanding.
So naive, so sillyâ¦
âYou didnât let me interfere in Jin Lanâs trial because you deemed Jin Lan the murderer, and you believed the law would punish her. But you knew she wasnât, yet you never thought to tell me.â
ââ¦â
âMeng Ziqi wanted to kill me, yet you allowed her to be free. Havenât you thought, if she could do it once, she could do it twice, or even more⦠this time Iâm alive because I was lucky, but I canât be lucky every time.â
Qin Youxuan stepped back and tried to break free from his embrace, but Dan Hanjie held on.
âShe wouldnât dare.â
Dan Hanjieâs tone became sombre, his eyes darkened, âI have people watching her around the clock, I wonât give her a chance to hurt you again.â
ââ¦â
Qin Youxuan was silent for a few seconds before lifting her head, âWhy donât you let her face the law, wouldnât it be better for her to go to prison?â
Did he have any reason to protect Meng Ziqi?
âMy worries, you will never understand.â Dan Hanjie slowly released his grip, his fingers caressing her delicate face, his eyes full of understanding.
ââ¦â
Again, if he didnât say, she would never know.
Qin Youxuan turned her head and looked at the contents of the box.
She picked up one of the medicine bottles, âIs this the medicine Meng Ziqi bought from Thailand?â
âNo.â
Dan Hanjieâs eyes flickered, âThis was what Diwu Zexuan left behind, an emergency backup, we donât need to use it now.â
Dan Hanjie stopped her hand, placed the medicine bottle back into the box and closed it. He slid the cabinet drawer back in place.
âStill mad?â
Dan Hanjie embraced her from behind, noticing that Qin Youxuan hadnât spoken for a while, he straightened her body, leaning down to kiss her lips.
