Xu Qingyun was shocked; her face turned deathly pale, and her breathing became rapid.

Memories from that year surged through my brain like a tsunami, making my already cold body even stiffer and colder, leaving me completely powerless to resist.

Ji Lun was under the influence of alcohol and was also angry. He had lost all reason and only wanted to possess Xu Qingyun completely!

"Xiaoyun, I will be good to you. I can give you anything except marriage."

Ji Lun murmured something and bent down to kiss Xu Qingyun's collarbone.

Xu Qingyun's pupils contracted sharply, and the word "no" stuck in her throat, turning into a silent scream.

move!

Move! Xu Qingyun, you're going to resist? Do you want your nightmare to repeat itself?!

Xu Qingyun was as if she were under a spell, unable to move at all.

Just then, the keypad lock was opened, and a tall, imposing figure rushed in, exuding a chill.

Bang!

Ji Lun was grabbed by the back of his neck and pulled up, and then Ji Hanchen's hard iron fist slammed into Ji Lun's face.

"Ah..." Ji Lun screamed in agony, then everything went black and he collapsed to the ground.

This time, he wasn't fainting at the sight of blood; he was knocked unconscious by Ji Hanchen's punch!

Ji Hanchen's eyes were bloodshot, and the flames of anger burned red in his dark eyes, the murderous intent in his eyes was fierce and terrifying!

Ji Hanchen used all his strength. If Ji Lun wasn't his nephew, he would have torn that damned beast to pieces!

He immediately took off his coat and covered Xu Qingyun's chest with it, then hugged her tightly in his arms, cupping the back of her head with his palms so that she could press closer to him.

"It's alright, it's alright, Yunyun, don't be afraid. I'm here, no one will hurt you anymore," Ji Hanchen comforted her tenderly.

He had never seen Yunyun so fragile, like a delicate piece of porcelain that would shatter at the slightest carelessness.

Xu Qingyun was breathing heavily, her face still pale.

She neither cried nor trembled.

Xu Qingyun thought she was calm and collected in the face of adversity, but the two warm tears on her cheeks reminded her that she was just a fragile young girl.

Tears fell onto Ji Hanchen's white shirt. He felt the warmth on his shoulder through the fabric, and his heart felt as if it had been stabbed by a knife.

Yunyun cried, his Yunyun cried.

How could that damned bastard Ji Lun do such a beastly thing to her?

Ji Hanchen hugged Xu Qingyun even tighter, as if he wanted to meld her into his very bones.

"Yunyun, I'm here. Cry it out, and you won't be afraid if you cry it out."

Xu Qingyun closed her eyes, stopping the tears from falling, and tried to calm herself down.

After catching her breath, Xu Qingyun asked Ji Hanchen in a still slightly trembling voice, "Why are you here?"

Ji Hanchen took a deep breath and said with heartache, "I miss you."

I really want to.

Even though they had just parted ways, after returning home, Ji Hanchen couldn't stop thinking about her gentle profile.

Ji Hanchen never imagined that he would fall so quickly and so deeply into it.

He had originally prepared an excuse to pretend to bring her brown sugar ginger water, but now he just wanted to tell the truth.

Xu Qingyun remained silent.

She should have pushed Ji Hanchen away, but her body was still cold, and she craved Ji Hanchen's body temperature.

Just then, a cell phone rang abruptly outside the door.

Chiang Hsun quickly hung up.

Xu Qingyun hurriedly pushed Ji Hanchen away and looked towards the door.

Ji Hanchen also called out to Jiang Xun outside the door, "Jiang Xun."

Jiang Xun walked in, his gaze averted elsewhere. "President Ji, you wanted to see me?"

Ji Hanchen's gaze was as cold as a knife as he swept it over Ji Lun, whose mouth was stained with blood. He coldly ordered, "Throw him back to the ancestral home!"

"...Okay, Mr. Ji."

Jiang Xun hesitated for a moment, then quickly did as instructed.

Young Master Ji Lun is really asking for trouble. How can you lay a finger on the girl that President Ji cherishes?

However, he wasn't much better off. If Ji Lun was thrown out today, the First Madam wouldn't let him off the hook!

After Jiang Xun dragged Ji Lun out, Ji Hanchen got up, walked to the entrance, and kicked Ji Lun's leather shoes out the door.

Turning his head, he saw that Xu Qingyun's face was still pale. He knelt on one knee in front of the sofa and asked with heartache, "Were you frightened?"

Xu Qingyun lowered her head, tightly pursed her pale lips, and her vision became somewhat blurry.

Ji Hanchen raised his hand and gently tucked her hair behind her ear.

“Yunyun, you don’t need to pretend to be strong in front of me, and you don’t need to be strong at all. You can cry, you can be vulnerable as much as you want. No matter what happens, I will stand in front of you and I will not let anyone hurt you.”

Sweet and tender words of love slowly entered Xu Qingyun's ears, touching the taut string in her heart.

Her body suddenly went limp, and she leaned completely against him.

Ji Hanchen was startled and immediately raised his voice, "Yunyun, Yunyun, what's wrong?!"

Xu Qingyun's breathing was shallow, and she had no strength. After a while, she said softly, "I'm fine."

"How could you be alright? I'll take you to the hospital!"

Ji Hanchen panicked and, without thinking, grabbed Xu Qingyun's coat and put it on her.

**

Hospital.

Bai Ruiting is on duty in the inpatient department today.

Evenings are relatively quiet, so he has time to play a couple of games in the duty room.

He was interrupted by Ji Hanchen's call midway through his conversation. He frowned slightly before answering, "Hanchen."

"Yunyun is sick, come quickly!" Ji Hanchen's voice was urgent; he didn't trust anyone else to treat Xu Qingyun.

Bai Ruiting was stunned. Yunyun?

He suddenly widened his eyes. Could this be the little girl that Han Chen had been thinking about all this time?
