BXBX NOVEL Chapter 173: Can She Take Back What She Just Said?
“The wound is on the sole of your foot, so walking in the next couple of days will definitely cause some pain. Try to move as little as possible, and once the wound heals, you will be fine.”
The doctor in casual dress simply instructed a few words, seeing that Dan Hanjie had no other commands, then left with his first aid kit.
“Did you hear that? Do I need to repeat it?” Dan Hanjie crossed his arms and smirked lazily.
“It’s just a minor injury. There’s no need for such fuss, even needing to be careful when taking a shower.” muttered Qin Youxuan.
“Should I cut off your foot for you to take it seriously?” Dan Hanjie raised his eyebrow coldly, his wicked eyes swept over her smooth feet.
Could she take back what she just said?
This guy has absolutely no sense of humor, and is always talking about extreme measures.
Her life will sooner or later be over.
“Don’t you need to go to the office?” Qin Youxuan blinked her beautiful eyes, asking curiously.
“Are you hoping that I will leave?” Dan Hanjie raised his eyebrows and retorted without answering.
His thin lips slightly curved up, containing a wicked smile.
“No, it’s not that, I’m just worried that you will be delayed with your work. If you’re busy, just go. I can take care of myself.” Qin Youxuan shuffled on the sofa, resting her little head on it, found a comfortable position and was feeling drowsy.
“It’s not your place to worry about my work.”
“I didn’t want to interfere, I was just expressing gratitude. You should be praising me.” Qin Youxuan mumbled, couldn’t help but yawn gracefully.
“Tired?” Dan Hanjie’s eyes flickered, his large hand scooped her into his arms, gently massaging her small head.
“A little, it’s afternoon already.” Qin Youxuan glanced at the time, and snuggled a little closer into Dan Hanjie’s arms.
People tend to lower their guard when they are sleepy.
After running so far, Qin Youxuan was exhausted, she couldn’t care about who she was leaning against now, she just wanted to find a comfortable place to have a good sleep.
Thinking about the restaurant manager who made her run so far that she ended up hurting her feet, she was still seething with anger.
Her cat-like eyes slightly squinted, and soon Qin Youxuan fell asleep.
“Move lightly, don’t wake her.” Dan Hanjie glanced at Yao who was approaching, warning him with his eyes.
Yao immediately halted in his tracks.
He stood still, watching as Dan Hanjie gently picked up Qin Youxuan and carried her upstairs.
“Hmm…”
Once she was on the big bed, Qin Youxuan comfortably stretched her legs, her petite body turned over and automatically burrowed into the quilt.
Like a little cat, she curled up in her small nest.
Her peaceful sleeping face seemed nothing like her quirky and whimsical waking state, let alone her obstinacy that grinds people’s teeth.
At this moment, Qin Youxuan was like a defenseless sweetheart.
Dan Hanjie stood aside and watched her for a while before retracting his gaze and leaving the room.
“Mr. Jie.” Yao respectfully waited outside the study.
“Any results?”
Dan Hanjie strode over, his towering figure walked to the desk and gracefully sat down.
His long fingers tapped on the smooth desk surface intermittently, yet chillingly.
“Yes. As you guessed, Mr. Jie, this matter should be related to the Meng family. According to our investigations, Meng Ziqi and Miss Qin grew up together, but her relationship with Jin Chenye is not simple. However, matters have been handled very cleanly, those who should have died are indeed dead, it might be difficult to investigate.”
Yao reported meticulously.
“In that case, Jin Chenye knows well how to use people to his advantage.” Dan Hanjie sneered, his smile eerie, “I just wonder how Meng Ziqi would react if she knew that she was being used.”
