Chapter 538: Chapter 538: It’s Not What You Think
“Rui Hui, a woman of mine, will be staying at home for a few days.”
Dan Hanjie followed her gaze, furrowing his brows slightly, and speaking in a soft voice.
On his seductive face, there were no unnecessary expressions.
“…”
His woman.
Qin Youxuan didn’t know why, but her mind was suddenly blank.
Her face was deathly pale.
“It’s not what you think, wake up!” Seeing her shocked look, Dan Hanjie knew that she had misunderstood and promptly knocked on her forehead.
“Ouch…”
Qin Youxuan held her forehead in pain, looking at him in bewilderment.
The next second, she was enveloped in Dan Hanjie’s arms, held tightly.
Feeling his warm embrace, the color slowly returned to Qin Youxuan’s face. She muttered, “When you say a woman is yours, what else could it mean…”
“Rui Hui is the same as Yao. Understand?”
Helplessly furrowing his eyebrows, Dan Hanjie lifted her sideways and turned to go upstairs.
Once back in the room, he placed her on the couch.
“Are you keeping something from me again?”
Sensing the unusual aura from him, Qin Youxuan automatically placed her hand on his chest.
Whenever he didn’t want to divulge something and feared her inquiries, this was his trick.
“Dan Hanjie, don’t think sex can resolve all marital issues!” Upon seeing his evasive look, Qin Youxuan declared with conviction.
At her words, Dan Hanjie was taken aback.
Supporting his body with one arm, he stared at her angry face, lips parting slightly, “Who has been seducing me from yesterday till now?”
“o(???)o…”
Qin Youxuan’s face was burning with embarrassment.
God damn Diwu Zexuan, his one-two-three strategy was akin to pushing her into a pit of fire.
“…I was just worried about you becoming withdrawn!”
Qin Youxuan held her head high, arguing her point.
“I’m fine.”
“You’re not.”
“I’m fine.” Dan Hanjie turned away, pressing a hand to his brow.
Yao told me that you’ve been ruthlessly purging the corporation of dissenters. Even Secretary Chen says that your actions have left the entire corporation in a state of fear… you weren’t like this before.”
Seeing him avoiding, Qin Youxuan also sat up, creeping into his arms like a koala and tightly clinging to his waist.
Her voice held a hint of grievance.
“You also drove me away.”
Qin Youxuan sniffed, “Dan Hanjie, did you believe those images and think I have a relationship with another man?”
“…”
Dan Hanjie tightened his hold around her, pressing her into his chest.
He refused to think about anything related to that day anymore.
He still minded…
Qin Youxuan’s eyes dimmed, yet she didn’t dare press him too far.
Take it slow…
She silently encouraged herself.
One day, Dan Hanjie would be okay; as long as he let go of his worries, he would realize that everything that happened that day was a setup, and she had not betrayed him.
She nestled in his arms, fussing with his shirt buttons.
“Dan Hanjie, Rui Hui went to the Guanlan Lake Scenic Area yesterday, was it to meet you?” Qin Youxuan carefully recalled the scene, “She clearly wanted to hug you; it must’ve been because you realized I was there, gave her a signal, so she went to hug a foreign handsome man instead.”
“Handsome man?” Dan Hanjie raised an eyebrow, parting his lips slightly.
