They still had an accident.
"What is this?" It was late at night, and Yue Lanjing was still in the office. He stared at the thing in front of him unhappily. He wanted coffee, but Guan Shaoling brought him chrysanthemums and wolfberries?
"Liver tonic, I think you might need it." Guan Shaoling gave him a considerate smile.
"Ah?" Yue Lanjing frowned in disapproval.
"Being too sad or too angry will damage your liver!" Guan Shaoling pulled out a chair and sat down in front of him.
Chanel and Yue Lanxiu got married, and Guan Shaoling didn't believe that he was as calm as he seemed.
In fact, his red eyes and thin face are enough to show that he has not been having a good time recently!
"You're overthinking it. I don't need it!" Yue Lanjing avoided the gaze that seemed to see through people's hearts and returned her gaze to the document in her hand.
Guan Shaoling sighed, "You mean you're not sad or angry? Then why do you drink alone at night to drown your sorrows, throwing tantrums and throwing things? The old lady who cleans your house every day has been complaining to me lately, asking me if the owner has changed, a drunk with violent tendencies! As soon as you walk in, there's always a pungent smell of alcohol and cigarettes, and the floor is littered with bottles, cigarette butts, and broken vases! So you bought those antique vases for this purpose?"
Guan Shaoling looked distressed. Those vases were worth a fortune! This guy was really upset! "You don't want them, thank you for giving them to me! If you want to throw things, I'll tie up Chanel and Yue Lanxiu and let you throw them to your heart's content! Whoever made you angry should be vented on them! This is the only way to vent your anger!"
After hearing the following words, Yue Lanjing raised her eyes expressionlessly, realizing that Guan Shaoling was not just talking casually, but really had the intention to do so! "None of your business is my business!"
"Can't bear to let her go?" Guan Shaoling studied his expression. He couldn't help but sigh again. What kind of drug did that woman give him that made him want to protect her even after hurting him so much? "It seems this method doesn't work, so let's try another one! Since you can't forget her, then go find her! Hug her! Kiss her! Sleep with her! Demand endlessly from her! Go back to Yue Lanxiu! Until you get tired of her! The reason you can't forget her is because you've only tasted the sweetness of love! Love is like chewing gum. No matter how sweet it is at the beginning, it will become less and less the more you chew it, and in the end it will become astringent and bitter, and you can't help but spit it out!"
Yue Lanjing narrowed her eyes slightly, as if thinking about his words, but finally said coldly, "If there is nothing else, you can get out!"
Guan Shaoling sighed three times, "Okay, okay, let's not talk about Chanel for now. I also want to talk to you about her father. Her father, Xia Tianhan, has been a hot topic lately! Many people are speculating that he is the real culprit in the Tang Zhen family massacre over a decade ago. Some have even determined that he is the real culprit and are ready to kill him!" He paused, his face cold, and his eyes questioning, "Do you want to stop them? Before they take any action?"
"Why should I stop him? If Xia Tianhan is the real murderer, he deserves retribution, doesn't he?" Yue Lanjing's eyes were as cold as an ice cellar.
"You should know that they are not only going to kill Xia Tianhan himself, they are also going to wipe out his entire family! Don't act like it's none of your business now, and then when they are about to kill Chanel you can't help but try to stop them!" Guan Shaoling was reminding Yue Lanjing not to do inappropriate things at inappropriate times!
"I just want to say that whether that woman lives or dies in the future, it has nothing to do with me!" Yue Lanjing said nonchalantly, without any emotion in her eyes. Her heart had long been shrouded in ice and snow, and all her emotions were frozen.
Guan Shaoling stared at him for a few seconds and said, "I hope your heart can be as carefree as you say!" Guan Shaoling sincerely hoped that he could cheer up again! It was not worth it to be depressed for that kind of woman.
Xia Tianhan and his wife soon received news, but it was not good news!
The day after Chao Rirou and Yue Lanxiu registered their marriage, Xia Tianhan unexpectedly turned himself in to the police station, confessing that he was the real murderer of the Tang family's massacre!
It was like a bolt from the blue! Yue Lan Xiuyi rushed to the police station as soon as he received the news. What made him even more shocked and puzzled was that Xia Tianhan didn't see anyone!
In the Inspector's Office, Xu Rongxuan said to the two people sitting at the desk with a serious expression, "The higher-ups take this case very seriously. They originally intended to re-investigate the Tang Zhen family murder case. Xia Tianhan's move is nothing more than walking into the trap! But there is one thing that is very strange. Although he admitted to all the crimes, he hesitated when asked to explain the specific motives and process of the crime! Since he has voluntarily admitted to all the crimes, there is no need to hide anything, right!"
"Of course I can't tell. He's not the real murderer!" Zhao Rirou said firmly. Turning to Yue Lanxiu beside her, she offered her own opinion. "Didn't Mom show up? How could Mom not show up when such a big thing happened? There must be something wrong! I think Dad must have been threatened! Could someone have threatened Mom's safety to make Dad do these things?"
Yue Lanxiu lowered his eyes and pondered, then nodded slightly when he heard her words. She and he were thinking the same thing.
"But there's no evidence for what you're saying! If something happened to your wife, shouldn't you explain everything to the police?" Xu Rongxuan's gaze flickered between Chao Rirou and Yue Lanxiu, sighing inwardly at the unpredictable nature of life! They were actually going to be husband and wife!
Yue Lanxiu was silent for a while before he raised his calm eyes and looked at Xu Rongxuan, "Tell him for me that Mom is back and she's very worried about him!"
"Maybe he will be willing to see us now." When Yue Lanxiu turned to look at Zhao Rirou, his eyes couldn't help but become gentle, including the tone of his voice.
Those eyes were like the brightest stars in the night, illuminating the dark road ahead. They made people feel that as long as they followed him, no matter how difficult the road ahead, they would have nothing to fear. Asahirou felt that having him by her side always gave her an inexplicable sense of security.
As Yue Lanxiu expected, Xia Tianhan finally agreed to meet his family.
In the prison visiting room, Xia Tianhan excitedly confirmed when he saw Yue Lanxiu, "Is your mother back? How does she look? Is she okay?!"
Looking at Xia Tianhan, who seemed to have aged a lot after not seeing him for a few days, Yue Lanxiu's eyes showed a trace of pity, and he said in a low voice, "You are the one who is in trouble."
Mom...it's hard to say. His heart sank gradually. Xia Tianhan's reaction made him sure that he was right. Something must have happened to Mom!
Xia Tianhan was stunned for a moment before revealing a faint, indifferent smile, "I... am fine. As long as your mother is fine, I'm fine too!"
Yue Lanxiu was really grateful to Xia Tianhan for loving his mother so deeply!
"How can you be alright after admitting to such a serious crime?" Yue Lanxiu had no intention of comforting him. He had to tell him the truth. Now the only one who could save him was himself!
"I was forced to do that! If someone hadn't kidnapped your mother and threatened her life, how could I admit to those absurd things! I definitely haven't done anything that is against the law of nature!" After confirming that his wife was fine, he decided to tell the truth.
"That's enough!" Yue Lanxiu chose to trust Xia Tianhan from the beginning to the end. "Now, tell me the whole story in detail, starting from when you ran away from home."
Xia Tianhan lowered his head and spoke slowly, like a child who had done something wrong, "In order to let you and Naier be together, and to keep the child in Naier's belly, your mother and I have decided to divorce."
Hearing Yue Lanxiu sigh, he explained, "Don't sigh. For your mother and me, divorce is just turning the marriage certificate that has been kept in the drawer into a divorce certificate. Nothing else will change! Our hearts are still tightly connected! We are still each other's most important other half! We will never separate!"
Yue Lanxiu believed Xia Tianhan would not let his mother down! He just couldn't bear to see them suffer so much at their age! He felt even more deeply guilty for having caused them all this!
"We have also decided to run away from home. As the letter said, we will not come back until you get married! Otherwise, we will never let you find us! But the reality left us helpless. Just when we thought we would be found by you soon, we met your uncle. Unexpectedly, he not only did not hold grudges, but was also willing to help us, understand our feelings, and arrange for us to stay in his villa." Xia Tianhan looked ashamed and grateful.
"Uncle!" Yue Lanxiu felt guilty when mentioning Yue Lanhui. But he was also surprised by his behavior!
"You are surprised too, right? But actually there is nothing to be surprised about. We are just judging others by our own standards. Your uncle is a reasonable, kind and upright person..." Xia Tianhan said a lot of words praising Yue Lanhui's character.
Yue Lanxiu pondered for a moment, "So, Mom disappeared at my uncle's villa?"
"Yes! I don't know why I slept very deeply that night. When I woke up, it was already daybreak and your mother was nowhere to be seen. I thought she might have gone for a walk nearby, but she didn't come back for a long time. The more I thought about it, the more something seemed wrong. I looked for her everywhere. I searched in and around the villa several times, but there was no sign of your mother! Just when I had a bad premonition, my cell phone rang. The caller ID showed that it was your mother calling, but when I answered it, it was a strange voice. He told me that your mother was in his hands and asked me to follow his instructions, otherwise he would kill your mother!" Xia Tianhan couldn't help trembling in his heart whenever he thought of his wife being kidnapped!
"Have you confirmed that Mom is safe?" Yue Lanxiu asked calmly.
"Of course! I immediately asked your mother to answer the phone. She was crying on the phone and told me not to care about her! She told me not to do anything stupid! How could I not care about her! As long as she can come back safely! I will do anything!" I would even let him die immediately! Thinking of his beloved wife's tearful face, his heart twisted into a ball, his voice couldn't help but choked, and he kept blaming himself for not protecting her!
"What impression do you have of the person who kidnapped Mom?"
Xia Tianhan paused for a moment, then lost in memory, "I only know that the person who told me on the phone was a man, but his voice was weird!"
"The sound is weird? Maybe it has been specially processed." Yue Lanxiu guessed it easily.
Xia Tianhan nodded and continued, "I asked him who he was and told him to take any grudges he had against me! Don't make things difficult for your mother! He just said that as long as I did what he told me, he would naturally not make things difficult for your mother!"
"What's his tone like? Hateful, cunning? Does it make you feel that he hates you, or seems to be using you?" Yue Lanxiu asked word by word, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
Xia Tianhan thought about it carefully and said with a throbbing heart, "I don't feel any hatred at all, but listening to him speak, I do feel like I'm being stared at by a pair of calculating eyes!"
Yue Lanxiu nodded, thinking that the person who ordered Xia Tianhan to do this might be the real murderer! Seeing that there were new discoveries in the Tang family case, he planned to find a scapegoat!
"By the way, is your mother's cough better? She kept coughing on the phone. She must have caught a cold!" Xia Tianhan's eyes were filled with genuine concern and worry, as well as strong self-blame.
Even at this time, he still only cared about his mother and always put her first. Yue Lanxiu was moved, but in order to make him tell the whole truth, he had to continue to lie to him and not let him know that his mother was still in the hands of the kidnappers. "Yeah."
"That's good, don't worry, mom! I didn't kill anyone, I'll be back soon!"
Yue Lanxiu couldn't be as relaxed and optimistic as him, "Soon? I'm afraid not that soon."
Xia Tianhan was stunned for a moment before he understood. "Oh, I see. They have to catch the kidnapper and prove what I said before they can release me, right? Just the cell phone recording and your mother's testimony aren't enough to convince the police, right?"
Yue Lanxiu nodded, looked at him seriously and said, "And you have to prove your innocence not only in this matter!"
"What else?" Xia Tianhan was confused.
"Mom used to wear a set of expensive jade jewelry. Was it you who gave it to her?" Yue Lanxiu asked, staring at his face.
"Yes! Why do you suddenly ask this?" He had only given Lanshan a set of jade, so he answered without thinking much.
"Where did you buy it?" Yue Lanxiu stared at his expression.
"My former secretary recommended it to me. It was your mother's birthday and I was worried about what to get her. He told me that a friend of his was in urgent need of money and wanted to sell a family heirloom, the jade set!"
"Your former secretary?" Yue Lanxiu thought it must be Mu Sanlang.
"Yes! His name was Mu Sanlang. You may not have any impression of him! You were still young at that time."
Yue Lanxiu took over his words, "I know, that person is dead!"
"Yes, he died in a car accident more than ten years ago."
Yue Lanxiu corrected with a sharp look, "No! He died a while ago!"
Xia Tianhan was surprised, then laughed and said, "How is that possible? You must have made a mistake!"
Yue Lanxiu closed his eyes, sighed, and said, "You are the one who made a mistake." His tone was light, but it was impossible not to feel the seriousness of his words.
Looking at the rare serious expression on Yue Lanxiu's face, Xia Tianhan could no longer laugh, but was still very surprised. "If he's not dead, why did he pretend to be dead? Why did he lie to me?"
"He said that you made him do a lot of shameful things! In order to keep these things secret forever, the only way is to fake his death!" Yue Lanxiu's eyes became deep, making it impossible to see through his emotions.
"Did I ask him to do something shameful that he would pretend to be dead?!" Xia Tianhan was extremely puzzled.
"He said that you framed Fu You! You first had him spread rumors that Fu You and Tang Zhen were not on good terms, and then you had him secretly place the poison that killed Tang Zhen's family in Fu's house! After Fu You was imprisoned, you even had him bribe the lawyer who wanted to prove Fu You's innocence..."
"Wait...!" Xia Tianhan called out, unable to bear it any longer. He blew his beard and glared, "Ridiculous! This is absolutely ridiculous! This is complete nonsense! I've always considered Fu You my brother, why would I frame him? It's Fu You who is suspected of harming me!"
Yue Lanxiu narrowed his eyes slightly and interrupted, "What do you mean?"
Xia Tianhan's eyes were lost in memories. "When I found the poison in his house, I didn't call the police right away because I never thought my good brother would do such a thing as poisoning his boss's family. He also said he didn't know why the poison was in his house and kept saying he was wronged and framed! He didn't look like he was lying, so I agreed to give him some time to investigate! But I didn't expect him to actually try to silence me. The next day, he hired a killer to run me over with his car. I was fine, but your mother was injured! This is something I absolutely cannot tolerate!"
"Why do you think it must be Fu You's hired killer?" Yue Lanxiu interrupted him again.
"I didn't think it was him at first. I always thought it was just bad luck that I was almost hit by cars one after another! But your uncle's words woke me up. Your uncle asked me if I had offended someone. He said that it seemed like someone did it on purpose, not an accident! The more I thought about it, the more I felt that your uncle was right. I immediately thought of Fu You. He was the one who wanted to kill me to silence me! So I immediately called the police and reported him!"
Yue Lanxiu nodded, a question in his mind finally resolved. This was why Xia Tianhan had gone back on his word and exposed Fu You in advance. "By the way, before telling the police about the discovery of the poison at the Fu family, did you tell anyone?"
"I only told your mother! At the time, I felt that it concerned a person's reputation and life, so I didn't dare let anyone else know. But your mother is not someone else!"
"I remember you asked someone to test the bottle of poison? Didn't the chemist know anything?" There was confusion in Yue Lanxiu's eyes.
"Yes, to avoid further trouble, I went to a small clinic in the countryside to have it tested. The test report showed that it was an extremely rare and highly toxic poison. The technician was curious why I had that poison, but when I said I was using it to kill rats, he stopped asking questions and just told me to be extremely careful and not let anyone come into contact with it! Afterwards, I asked someone to get the composition report of the poison that killed the entire Tang family. When we compared the two reports, we were 100% certain that it was the same poison!"
"Why did you think of comparing the two reports?" Yue Lanxiu felt as if he was comparing them on purpose, as if he had already known it was the same poison!
Xia Tianhan's eyes flickered, and he didn't dare to meet Yue Lanxiu's serious gaze. After a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "Well, it doesn't matter if I tell you. In fact, I have long known that the bottle of poison found in Fu You's house is the same as the one that poisoned the Tang family! Because I didn't just happen to go to the Fu family and find it by chance. I went there after receiving a strange phone call. The person on the phone told me that it was the Fu family who poisoned the entire Tang family, and the poison was hidden in the doghouse! My first reaction was of course disbelief, but the other party said, if you don't believe it, you can go and see. Although I still couldn't believe it, I was really uneasy, so I finally went to the Fu family. I just wanted to prove that the person was lying and playing a prank, but I didn't expect..."
Yue Lanxiu's eyes flashed with surprise. He hadn't expected this to happen. "Don't you have any clue who the person on the phone is?"
Xia Tianhan shook his head regretfully. "So I didn't dare mention this to the police. I was afraid they would say I was making it up and start suspecting me, because at the time I couldn't prove that someone had actually called me."
Yue Lanxiu nodded thoughtfully.
"I hope you can believe what I say and not listen to the nonsense of those with ulterior motives! I don't understand why Mu Sanlang would slander me like this. I have always considered him my own brother! What did I do to upset him that he would treat me like this?" Xia Tianhan became so excited that he pounded the table with his fist. His face was filled with hatred and pain, and it didn't seem fake.
"Have you offended his relatives or friends?" Yue Lanxiu guessed.
"Where does he have any relatives or friends? He's been an orphan since childhood and likes to be alone!"
"Are you sure?" Yue Lanxiu asked him to think about it again.
Xia Tianhan thought about it carefully again, and suddenly his eyes lit up. "There is a woman, but I have never seen her. I only heard him mention her a few times. He liked her very much. I encouraged him to pursue her, but he said that she was married. He didn't mention it again after that, so I didn't ask again. After all, she was a married woman."
Yue Lanxiu suddenly thought of the hairpin. Does the owner of the hairpin have any connection with this case?
Afterwards, Yue Lanxiu asked Xia Tianhan many questions before leaving.
Then he was called by Yue Lanhui again. He also wanted to find him for something, so he wanted to go to his villa, the one where his mother had the accident.
I met Yue Lanjing who happened to be walking out of the chairman's office door.
Yue Lanjing's eyes, which were originally cold, became even colder after seeing Yue Lanxiu.
Yue Lanxiu subconsciously wanted to say hello, but he opened his mouth but couldn't find the words. In the end, the corners of his mouth curled up in an extremely bitter arc. The brothers who used to talk about everything have now become worse than strangers!
Is it true that the past relationship cannot be restored?
Yue Lanjing walked past him expressionlessly, not even glancing at him once. Although it was only a single glance, and it was brief, it was enough for him to see the determination within, the irreversible urgency.
Looking at the figure disappearing around the corner, Yue Lanxiu felt a sense of melancholy in his heart.
"Is he okay?" He was talking to Guan Shaoling, who had just come out of the chairman's office with a large number of documents in his hands. Yue Lanjing's face was very pale. How could he not care?
"What do you think? Someone's taken my heart, how can I be any better?" Guan Shaoling snorted. Although his tone was calm, the smile on his face was cold, and the look he gave Yue Lanxiu was also cold. Looking closely, the depths of his eyes were filled with hatred and disgust!
Upon hearing this, Yue Lanxiu couldn't help but take a deep breath. The pain, guilt, and self-blame blocked his chest, making it almost suffocating for him.
Guan Shaoling looked at Yue Lanxiu's sad face with satisfaction. He just wanted to make Yue Lanxiu feel guilty and uneasy! He wanted to make Yue Lanxiu unable to face Chanel with peace of mind! How could they be happy if Jing was not feeling well?
Guan Shaoling snorted in disdain and quickened his pace to catch up with Yue Lanjing. He had a bad feeling.
Sure enough, Yue Lanjing in front stopped, leaning on the wall with one hand, covering her suddenly aching chest with the other, her face extremely pale.
Seeing this, Guan Shaoling immediately rushed forward to support him and asked anxiously, "What's wrong? Is your chest hurting again?"
"I'm fine!" Yue Lanjing gritted his teeth, his tone a little stubborn. He wouldn't allow himself to be so vulnerable! He wouldn't allow his emotions to be affected by irrelevant people!
In the office, Yue Lanxiu bowed ninety degrees to Yue Lanhui behind the desk to express his apology.
"Okay, okay, I haven't been angry with you for a long time! Actually, this matter cannot be blamed on you. It can only be said that Jing and Naier are not destined to be together! Since you are married to Naier, don't worry about what happened before. Live your life well! Besides, the most important thing right now is your father's matter. What happened to him? How did he suddenly become a murderer!" Yue Lanhui said reasonably, her face full of doubts and worries.
The more he spoke, the more uneasy Yue Lanxiu felt. He would rather he be scolded, or even beaten! Yue Lanhui's actions would only make him feel even more ashamed. But Yue Lanhui was right. The most important thing right now was how to rescue Xia Tianhan and his mother! This matter was urgent and could not be delayed even a minute. Please allow him to put the apology off until later!
"I believe he was wrongly accused and was forced to say that he was the murderer."
Yue Lanhui nodded in agreement. "I also think your father wouldn't kill anyone. He was just forced into a corner. What's going on?"
"My mother must have been kidnapped, and the kidnappers used this to threaten my father, so he would be stupid enough to follow the kidnappers' arrangements and admit that he was the murderer!" Yue Lanxiu felt that there was no need to hide it from Yue Lanhui.
Yue Lanhui was extremely shocked and hesitated for a long time before she said, "How could such a thing happen? Was Huanhuan really kidnapped?!"
Yue Lanxiu nodded sternly and asked, "She was kidnapped in your villa, uncle, so I hope to go and take a look at it."
Yue Lanhui seemed to still be immersed in shock, and said blankly, "Of course, do you even need to ask? I'll take you there right now!" Then she stood up, but frowned at the table full of documents.
Yue Lanxiu saw his inconvenience and said, "If possible, I can go alone. I know you are very busy, and I really don't want to delay your work."
"I really can't leave right now! I'll give you the key so you can investigate anytime. Besides, I'll leave this kind of investigation to you and the police. I don't want to cause any trouble for you! But if you need anything else, you must tell me right away!" Yue Lanhui patted Yue Lanxiu's shoulder, her expression unable to conceal her worry. "I must get your mother back safely!"
Yue Lanxiu nodded and made a special note before leaving, "By the way, I hope Uncle can keep Mom's kidnapping a secret. Don't let too many people know about it. I'm mainly worried that my father will hear about it. He'll think Mom has returned safely, but I was actually lying to him to get him to tell the truth. If he knew the truth about Mom, he would definitely admit to those trumped-up charges again!"
Yue Lanhui's eyes widened, and she said thoughtfully, "Okay, don't worry!"
It was late at night when Yue Lanxiu returned home from the villa. When he returned to the bedroom, Chao Rirou was already asleep.
Although the two were in a fake marriage, they decided to sleep in the same room to avoid others noticing anything.
It's just the same room.
Xia Tianhan's incident has already caused the Xia family's reputation to plummet. If word gets out at this critical juncture that his marriage to Xia Naier was a fake marriage, then they will lose trust with everyone, and no one will stand by them anymore!
Zhao Rirou naturally slept on the bed, Yue Lanxiu on the sofa. Fortunately, the room was large enough, and there was a screen between the sofa and the bed. If they blocked each other's view, would that also block their feelings?
Looking at the screen, Yue Lanxiu felt that it was a wall that he could never cross!
He sighed. Now was not the time to be sentimental. He needed to sort out the case carefully and find clues as soon as possible so that he could rescue his parents one by one! He had to save them!
He lay on the huge sofa, his hands resting on the back of his head, looking at the ceiling, thinking about things intently.
Who had kidnapped his mother? Could it be Luosha's gang? He thought it unlikely, because if Luosha wanted to deal with Xia Tianhan, they wouldn't send him to prison and let the law deal with him. They would just kill him directly!
An accomplice? If Xia Tianhan is the murderer, he must have an accomplice! Is this accomplice afraid of being exposed and implicated, so he's doing this to shift all the blame onto Xia Tianhan? Who could this accomplice be? Could it be Yan Mingchi, as Luosha believes?
He quickly denied it. Who was Yan Mingchi? He had committed countless crimes. When had he ever tried to cover up his crimes? When had he ever worried about being caught by the police? Given his style, he would never do such a thing!
The main reason was that Yue Lanxiu didn't believe there were any accomplices. Xia Tianhan couldn't possibly be the murderer! From all aspects, it could be judged that the murderer was an extremely cautious and meticulous person. How could he carelessly give the stolen property to his wife and then show it in front of everyone?
It seems that the only person who would do such a thing is the real murderer...
The person on the bed suddenly started making nightmare noises, and kept shouting "No, no!"
Yue Lanxiu's thoughts were interrupted. He thought that she might just be having a nightmare. He didn't intend to get up and go to check. After all, there are differences between men and women!
He smiled bitterly. They were married and had children, yet they had to keep a proper distance!
But her screams did not stop, and the hint of fear in her voice touched his heart. He couldn't help but stand up and take a step forward.
When he regained his sanity, he was already squatting beside her bed, his outstretched hand almost touching her slightly pale face.
He was so frightened that he quickly retracted his hand. What was he doing? How could he touch someone else's face while they were asleep? More importantly, in his eyes, she was always someone else's! She was someone else's beloved, and he had taken her away by improper means! Now looking at her, he always felt full of guilt! Thinking of Guan Shaoling's words in his mind, he felt that he was an unforgivable person who was desecrating someone else's woman!
Suppressing his inappropriate emotions, he stood up and tried to leave, but his wrist was suddenly grabbed by Asahiro.
"Don't leave me!" Although she was still asleep, she was very strong and Yue Lanxiu couldn't break free no matter how hard she struggled.
He didn't dare to use too much force for fear of waking her up and disturbing her.
He squatted down again and gently pried open her fingers. He felt that this was the most difficult job ever!
She exerted more strength, holding his arms tightly against her chest, and the expression on her face became relieved.
Yue Lanxiu took a sharp breath. He didn't know if it was because he saw something he shouldn't have seen, or because of the warm and soft touch on his arm. This was the first time he felt so overwhelmed!
He couldn't look, but he couldn't control his eyes. Oh, God, please strike down a thunderbolt! He promised he wouldn't hide!
Under the soft object, he didn't dare to move his hands, and he didn't even dare to breathe! Yue Lanxiu, who never blushed before, now faced as red as a tomato.
He closed his eyes, thinking he could calm down, but it was still terrible. He could feel her shallow breathing. Every time she took a breath, the softness of her arm pressed against his would move! He cried out inwardly: God, you are welcome to punish me, but why in this way!
He should sort out the case and think about who the real murderer is... So fragrant... So smooth... So soft... Strange words kept inadvertently entering his mind, disrupting his thoughts! Ah - in order to calm his mind and drive away distracting thoughts, he recited the Heart Sutra!
Finally, exhausted both physically and mentally, he could no longer bear the torture and fell asleep!
