Chapter 520: Chapter 520: Are You Really Going to Divorce Me?
Right upon their return to Yujing Villa, the entire atmosphere shifted.
Dan Hanjie let go of her hand and turned around. An intense, oppressive aura descended towards Qin Youxuan.
She subconsciously stepped back until she leaned against the edge of the sofa. Weakly, she raised her head to look at him.
Lifting her hand, she said, “I request an explanation.”
“Who allowed you to go out and spout nonsense in front of the media!” Dan Hanjie roared furiously, his mesmerizing eyes glinting with an eerie light. His hand at his side clenched into a fist, veins popping on the back of his hand.
He said she was spouting nonsense. So was she supposed to let the media trumpet their supposed divorce as fact?
Qin Youxuan’s eyes dimmed as she said, “I only wanted to help you.”
“But this happened because of me, I can’t just stand by and watch the Dan Group get dragged into this because of me…” Qin Youxuan attempted to explain.
“So what, you thought that pretending like nothing happened, showing your face in front of the media, would solve the problem?” Dan Hanjie snarled. “If I hadn’t shown up today, you wouldn’t even have known how you would have paid the consequences!”
But he did show up. Didn’t that prove that he still cared for her?
“Dan Hanjie, you didn’t see how shocked the media were when they saw you. As long as we stick closely together, they won’t have a chance to write those inaccurate reports.”
Qin Youxuan clutched his hand and pouted.
“Inaccurate reports…”
Dan Hanjie slowly repeated these words, his icy gaze fixed directly on Qin Youxuan.
“After all, we haven’t divorced. The rumors of us parting ways are false.”
“You’re quite optimistic.” Dan Hanjie scoffed, his gaze deep and inscrutable.
“Yes, you can still kick me out, but as long as you don’t divorce me, I’ll stick to you, even if it drives you to kill me.” Qin Youxuan felt she had lost all face and dignity, so she went all in.
“So, if I agree to divorce, that will satisfy you?” There was a flash in Dan Hanjie’s eyes as he coldly pressed her for a response.
He reached out and gripped her chin, pressing her petite body into the couch.
Qin Youxuan was completely taken aback.
Staring at him in disbelief, it took her a moment before she choked out, “So, you really want to divorce me?”
Her eyes welled up uncontrollably, turning red.
She thought he would explain, proving that he still cared for her.
She had barely just resolved to fight for them again, and he was already considering giving up?
If he really signed the divorce papers, she wouldn’t even have her last excuse…
Dan Hanjie’s lips tightened, he simply stared at her in silence, his eyebrows frowning.
The hand holding her chin tightened, his gaze exhibiting a profound depth that no one could decipher…
His lips parted slightly.
Just when Qin Youxuan thought she was about to hear the most heartless verdict, the sound of footsteps suddenly echoed in her ears.
Turning her head, she saw Yao rushing in.
“Mr. Jie, I have good news…”
Yao’s voice halted abruptly.
Facing the bizarre scene and the decidedly tense atmosphere, he was left unsure of whether to move forward or retreat.
Qin Youxuan was completely pinned down by Dan Hanjie on the couch, her chest was pressed against his, with one of his legs trapping hers. It was a suggestive pose for a man and woman…
One who did not know the circumstances would really think they were about to do something lewd right in the living room.
Yao thought he’d interrupted Dan Hanjie, so he started to make a hasty retreat.
Dan Hanjie’s cold command rang out as he got up from the couch.
He adjusted his shirt, then reached out to pull Qin Youxuan to her feet.
