Chapter 443: Chapter 443: The Man was Kidnapped
She responded to every word he said.
Yet her face remained devoid of any smiles. It was as if she was cornered, refusing to share her emotions with anyone else.
She wasn’t ignoring him; she was ignoring herself.
If it wasn’t for the current situation where he had ordered the villa to be cordoned off, was she planning to suggest that they cool off by spending some time apart?
Damn the separation!
“Bang——”
Dan Hanjie swung his arm, sweeping all the dishes onto the floor, then abruptly stood up.
Just as he was about to head upstairs, Yao rushed in from outside.
“Mr. Jie.”
Yao’s steps were somewhat disorganized, his face marked by rare panic. A scratch near his ear was still bleeding, obviously a fresh wound.
“Miss Bai has been kidnapped!”
“What did you say?” Dan Hanjie’s eyes darkened, and he stopped in his tracks.
“As soon as our helicopter landed in the United States, we were ambushed. Our attackers were well-prepared with a clear target. We were outnumbered and Miss Bai was taken.”
“Bang——”
Dan Hanjie kicked over a vase in the living room, shattering it to bits.
“Search. You must find out who did this!”
With a twist of his impressive figure, Dan Hanjie was the first to leave the living room.
Third floor.
Qin Youxuan was hugging Da Bai, leaning against the balcony railing. She vaguely watched the tall figure leaving Yujing Villa. Her gaze shifted, then regained its calmness.
“Woof——”
It seemed Da Bai could sense her low spirits and whimpered softly, obediently curling up in her arms.
He kept licking the back of her hand with his tongue.
Occasionally, he would lift his head and lick her chin.
His pure wolven eyes stared consistently at her.
“I’m fine. I just don’t know how to face him.” Seeing the car quickly leave the villa, Qin Youxuan retreated into the balcony and sat down on the tatami mat, her face filled with helplessness.
She couldn’t tolerate Dan Hanjie’s deception and secrecy. His scheming frightened her.
But she couldn’t forget everything he had done for her…
No matter why he had done it, during her times of desperation and helplessness, he was the one who reached out to her and pulled her out of hell.
They were married. He knew that exposing their marriage would be dangerous, but he did it anyway without hesitation.
She understood his intentions—he didn’t want her to suffer.
But he did not understand that these were not the things that mattered to her…
Qin Youxuan tightened her grip on Da Bai, her chest tightening so much that she couldn’t breathe.
“Ugh——”
A wave of nausea hit her, and Qin Youxuan quickly put Da Bai down and rushed to the bathroom.
“Ugh——”
As though she was trying to vomit everything out of her stomach, Qin Youxuan leaned weakly against the bathroom sink, unable to straighten up for a long time.
Her face was so pale it was devoid of any color.
“Woof…”
Seeing her standing still, Da Bai, sensing that something was wrong, kept circling around her legs.
He whimpered softly.
It was only after an unknown amount of time that Qin Youxuan managed to regain her senses. She dragged her heavy feet out of the bathroom.
She made her way to the sofa and collapsed onto it.
Turning her head, she fixed her gaze on the morning glory flowers on the balcony. They swayed in the wind, their purple-blue petals looking particularly beautiful.
In just a few days, the tendrils had already crept out of their pots, their young shoots lush and vibrant.
After watching for a while, Qin Youxuan started to feel sleepy.
She turned on her side and descended into a light slumber.
In her daze, she saw a tall figure standing in front of her, talking continuously. But she couldn’t hear a single word he was saying.
