Upon seeing this, Ye Mohan hugged Jian Yixue tightly.
"Don't move, I'm injured."
Just as Jian Yixue was about to break free from Ye Mohan's embrace, she heard Ye Mohan's words in her ear.
She was so angry she felt like vomiting blood!
Knowing he was injured, he still dared to do this; he must have her figured out!
Jian Yixue felt a surge of resentment, but dared not move an inch, afraid of aggravating Ye Mohan's wound.
With their bodies so close, Jian Yixue could feel Ye Mohan's heartbeat.
Ye Mohan's heavy, somewhat suppressed breathing seemed to brush past her face, causing Jian Yixue to blush and feel slightly hot.
"You know what? I actually refused this marriage in the first place."
Ye Mohan originally wanted to tease Jian Yixue, but after hugging her, he suddenly wanted to tell her what was on his mind.
Jian Yixue was taken aback. Did he mean to have a heart-to-heart talk when he said "let's chat"?
Jian Yixue couldn't figure out Ye Mohan's thoughts, so she nodded, "I know."
Next, it was Ye Mohan's turn to be stunned, and he asked in confusion, "Then why are you still..."
Seemingly realizing that his questioning was inappropriate, Ye Mohan didn't finish his sentence and prepared to change the subject.
"Are you trying to say, 'Why did I still marry you even though I knew you didn't love me?'" Jian Yixue finished Ye Mohan's sentence.
Ye Mohan didn't quite understand Jian Yixue's intentions, so he just hummed in agreement and said nothing more.
"If I said I wanted to change my lifestyle, would you believe me?"
Jian Yixue turned her head and glanced at her sideways.
This is the truth. In her previous life, Jian Mingpeng had someone bring her from the countryside and tell her about the marriage arranged for her by her mother. The other party then came to her door and asked her to marry him.
She agreed when she learned that it was her mother's idea. She was used to living alone anyway, and she thought that living a different way might give her a different feeling.
However, she later met Zhao Heng, who ruined everything.
After listening, Ye Mohan pondered for a moment, then spoke in a deep voice.
"Yes, I believe you."
Jian Yixue smiled faintly, unable to describe her feelings.
All she knew was that regret filled her entire heart.
In her past life, she gave up the happiness that was within their grasp, choosing instead to be a moth drawn to a flame, destroying herself and Ye Mohan in the process.
In this life, she will not let the tragedy repeat itself!
"Mo Han, from now on I will always be your wife, only your wife."
Since Jian Yixue couldn't tell him about her past life, she could only express her feelings in a subtle and affectionate way.
Ye Mohan held Jian Yixue tightly, his eyes full of doting affection, "Yes, Xue'er will be my wife for life."
"Thank you, Mo Han."
Hearing Ye Mohan's words, Jian Yixue couldn't help but shed tears.
Hot tears fell onto Ye Mohan's hands.
Ye Mohan felt the woman in his arms sobbing and turned Jian Yixue around so that they could look into each other's eyes.
Seeing the woman's tears, which were like pearls, he raised his hand and gently wiped them away.
"Fool, there's no need for thanks between us! Don't cry, it'll make you ugly, and you won't look good then."
At this moment, she was acting a bit childish. Upon hearing Ye Mohan's words, she couldn't help but complain, "If I become ugly and no longer pretty, will you dislike me?"
Ye Mohan couldn't help but chuckle, "How could that be? Do I look like such a shallow person?"
Jian Yixue glanced at Ye Mohan and nodded solemnly.
Seeing this, Ye Mohan looked helpless, stretched out his index finger to hook it, and touched Jian Yixue's nose, "You are so cute."
When Jian Yixue saw that he was about to reach out again, she dodged backward.
Seeing this, Ye Mohan stopped and instead released his grip on Jian Yixue, looking at her affectionately and saying, "Get some rest!"
Seeing that it was indeed getting late, Jian Yixue nodded.
She helped Ye Mohan lie down, then returned to the bed next to him and shared a pillow with him.
——
When Jian Yixue woke up in the early morning, Ye Mohan was no longer in bed.
Jian Yixue picked up her phone from the bedside table, checked the time, and sat up groggily. Only then did she see Ye Mohan busy working on the sofa.
"You're awake. Quickly wash up, change into the clothes on the table, and then we'll have breakfast."
Ye Mohan stopped what he was doing and looked at Jian Yixue.
Jian Yixue rubbed her squinty eyes and nodded blankly.
After washing up, Jian Yixue changed into the white dress prepared by Ye Mohan and left the washroom.
When Ye Mohan saw Jian Yixue, a glimmer of light appeared in his eyes.
The woman's graceful figure was on full display, and her hair, casually draped over her shoulders, added to her charm, exuding an indescribable aloofness and allure.
The simultaneous presence of these two different qualities in her doesn't feel out of place; rather, it accentuates her unique beauty.
You look beautiful today.
Ye Mohan praised him without reservation.
Jian Yixue smiled faintly and walked to his side. "I'll go cook for you."
"No need, Lin Yi has asked the housekeeper to make breakfast."
Jian Yixue nodded and sat down opposite Ye Mohan.
She was thinking about how to bring it up with Ye Mohan, as she was going out later.
Last night, Xue Zhuju and her two companions arrived in St. Namer County and checked into the local five-star hotel, Porter. She needed to meet with them to discuss the next steps.
Soon, Lin Yi knocked on the door and came in with breakfast. The two quickly finished their meal.
Just as Jian Yixue was about to speak, Ye Mohan across from her spoke first.
"I'm going out in a bit, you wait for me at home."
Jian Yixue put down the tissue she was about to use to wipe her mouth, her brows furrowed, and looked at Ye Mohan, "Your health has only just started to improve, it's not suitable for you to go out."
Seeing Jian Yixue's worried expression, Ye Mohan patiently explained, "It's work-related, so I have to go. Don't worry, I'll bring Yuxuan with me."
Seeing this, Jian Yixue frowned deeply, knowing she couldn't stop it.
Seeing that Ye Mohan had brought Zhou Yuxuan with him, she felt a little relieved.
She could only remind Zhou Yuxuan to keep an eye on Ye Mohan and prevent him from ruining his body.
"I'm going out later too."
After thinking for a moment, Jian Yixue decided to tell Ye Mohan.
"Where to?" Ye Mohan frowned, puzzled.
"Go out for a stroll and meet some friends."
"I'll have someone follow you." The tone left no room for doubt.
"No need, I can protect myself. I'll be back before dark."
Jian Yixue didn't want him to send people to follow her; if it were discovered that she was going to a hotel, she wouldn't be able to explain herself.
Ye Mohan remained silent, his eyes fixed on Jian Yixue, as if trying to see through her.
Deeply puzzled, he couldn't find a reason for Jian Yixue's departure.
Jian Yixue felt her scalp tingle under Ye Mohan's gaze, and her heart sank. Her momentum weakened a bit. "Um, I agree to let you send someone to follow me."
Seeing this, Jian Yixue noticed that Ye Mohan's eyes had warmed up.
That scared her to death! Looks like we'll have to find another place!
"Okay, Lin Yi will go with you."
Jian Yixue was startled and quickly refused, "No, he can't go with you. You're injured, and Lin Yi is your right-hand man. He absolutely cannot leave your side!"
