Chapter 202: Chapter 202: Once Released, It Doesn’t Listen Anymore
Slumped against the door, Qin Youxuan sunk to the ground, her gaze blank.
Her eyes were slightly red…
The scenes that flashed through her mind were those of Jin Chenye cooking for her, while she turned up her nose and nitpicked.
He was always so patient, dealing with her displeasure as though he was coaxing a child.
In her eyes, he was a man who never lost his temper.
His handsome face was always adorned with a gentle smile, warm and courteous.
Whenever they quarreled, he would always be the one to back down.
If she was unhappy, he would coax her.
If she was acting petulant, he would coax her.
If she was being unreasonable, he would still coax her.
Witnessing her own mother’s death made it hard for her to believe in a man’s sincerity and devotion.
But Jin Chenye never questioned why, he was always kind to her.
Meng Ziqi doesn’t know that her being difficult was actually due to her own insecurity…
It was Jin Chenye’s patience that made her believe they would always be together…
Forever, indeed, is a word not to be trusted.
Time continued to go on, but they had already parted ways.
Meng Ziqi was her good friend, but she only saw Jin Chenye’s tolerance and never noticed her own contributions.
Was she at fault, or is human nature inherently selfish?
“Buzz…Buzz…”
The phone on the table kept ringing, but Qin Youxuan acted as though she didn’t hear it, curling up behind the door, hugging her knees, and staring blankly with eyes swollen red.
Her half-dried long hair draped across her face, and she was wearing a white nightgown. From a distance, she looked like a ghost.
After an unknown stretch of time, the ringing of the phone sounded again.
Qin Youxuan blinked a few times and got up from the floor.
She reached out to answer the phone.
“Hello?”
“Seems like you really want to be locked up. The moment you’re let out, you’re disobedient.” The man’s dominant voice was clear and tinged with suppressed anger.
Qin Youxuan paused, pulling the phone away to check the incoming caller’s name.
Seeing the words “Big Devil”, she snapped back to reality.
“I didn’t… I was just taking a shower, so I didn’t answer the phone…” Qin Youxuan instinctively defended herself, not wanting Dan Hanjie to know that she was once again entangled with Jin Chenye.
“Your ability to tell lies with a straight face is really improving. Do you think you can bathe by sitting on the floor? Qin Youxuan, can your lies get any more ridiculous!” A magnetic, low voice echoed in her ear, making Qin Youxuan’s body instinctively tense up.
She lifted her head blankly, watching Dan Hanjie, who had just climbed in through her window, her eyes wide like a cat’s.
She even forgot to hang up the call.
“You… how did you get in…”
What she actually wanted to ask was when had he arrived?
“Earlier than you think.”
Dan Hanjie knew what she intended to ask, his charming eyes flicked towards her surprised expression, he moved closer with satisfaction, hooking her chin with a smirk, “So surprised to see me that you’re speechless?”
Could she say that she was only surprised and not delighted?
Definitely not, he would strangle her.
Wait, he said he arrived early, did he hear her conversation with Meng Ziqi?
Qin Youxuan tensed up, looking at him uneasily.
The phone was still off the hook, she was clutching it tightly, her petite body moved back a bit, watching him warily.
Dan Hanjie’s enchanting face was too calm, she could not decipher anything from it.
Asking him directly was something she didn’t dare to do.
In the end, all Qin Youxuan could do was let out a dry chuckle and change the topic, “Why are you here?”
“I was afraid you wouldn’t get used to not having me around, so I came over to sleep with you.”
