Chapter 574: Wherever you go, I’ll keep you in my pocket

There was an added hint of trust in Qin Mo’s voice.

He was wary of fully trusting Dan Hanjie’s one-sided words, but his daughter’s reaction just now had proven everything.

Dan Hanjie didn’t say anything, took the box and put it away carefully.

He had intended to take the item anyway, and it was even better that Qin Mo was willingly giving it to him.

“Daddy, goodbye.”

Qin Youxuan reluctantly waved her little hand, watching as Qin Mo vanished from her sight, her eyes slightly moist.

Fortunately, he still had Jin Chenye by his side.

She didn’t need to worry that he would be left without anyone to take care of him.

“Whew–”@@novelbin@@

Qin Youxuan gently exhaled, leaning back on the car cushion.

“Beep, beep–”

A text message notification sounded on her phone.

With a touch of her finger, Qin Youxuan read a simple message on the screen, [Take care of yourself, goodbye.]

It was from Jin Chenye.

Those few succinct words suddenly made Qin Youxuan’s nose sting.

She turned her head subconsciously, only to find that the car had already left the Qin family’s property, and there was nothing in sight.

She knew he wasn’t at home, but it didn’t occur to her that he had only chosen not to appear in order to spare her any awkwardness.

“What are you looking for?”

Dan Hanjie glanced at her while driving.

“Nothing…”

Blinking her cat-like eyes, Qin Youxuan decisively put away her phone.

“He was standing on the second floor near the entrance, you just didn’t notice.” Dan Hanjie suddenly spoke, his words slow and deliberate, carrying a certain grinding sharpness.

“…”

She hadn’t said a thing, yet he knew.

“Qin Youxuan, you can’t deceive me even with a single glance. Are you really going to miss him so much? Should I turn the car around to allow you to say goodbye, hmm?”

“…”

She dared not.

After being scolded by him like this, Qin Youxuan’s melancholy from parting had completely vanished.

She feared that if he got upset, he might just leave her and drive away on his own.

“Dan Hanjie, this is great.”

Qin Youxuan muttered something, tilted her little head, and leaned back onto the car cushion to sleep again.

“…”

Dan Hanjie’s grip on the steering wheel tightened.

He slowed the car down, turned his head and looked at her peacefully sleeping face.

All she wanted was a peaceful life, yet even this simple wish, he could not fulfil for her…

Cat, have you ever regretted it?

“Don’t leave me behind… ”

Rolling over, Qin Youxuan turned her face towards Dan Hanjie and mumbled something.

Dan Hanjie’s heart stirred, a smirk appeared at the corner of his mouth. “Alright, I’ll keep you in my pocket wherever we go.”

As if she had heard his response, Qin Youxuan smacked her lips and fell back into deep sleep.

Moving his gaze away from her small face, Dan Hanjie took out his phone and swiftly dialed Diwu Zexuan’s number.

“Are the results out yet?”

“The test is done. There is no such drug in Jin Chenye’s soup. Also, based on the length of time he’s known Qin Youxuan, it’s impossible to reach the drug effect we detected. However, his soup recipe is really precise, a warming nourishing soup, quite suitable for Qin Youxuan’s constitution. Seems like he put much thought into that bowl of soup.”

Diwu Zexuan sounded indifferent, with a hint of provocation as if he was enjoying the show.

“…”

Darkness filled Dan Hanjie’s eyes.

If it wasn’t Jin Chenye, then Jiang Yu was the most likely suspect.

“By the way, my tests are ready. Whenever you’re okay with it, I’ll come over. Once we’re sure your mental state is stable, we can get going.”

Diwu Zexuan remained silent for a moment before reminding him again.

“Anytime.”

Dan Hanjie spat out two cold words and promptly hung up the phone.
