Chapter 552: Chapter 552: Something Really Happened
Diwu Zexuan’s half-open eyes flitted over Rui Hui, ensuring that her face showed no surprise.
This confirmed that she already knew.
His thin lips curled upward, “Since you knew, you should have anticipated that the woman, to Hanjie now, is far from being an ordinary existence. I merely wanted to try something, no big deal.”
“Your manipulative nature is truly despicable!”
Rui Hui glanced at him with disdain before clicking her tongue, “But this time, I admit you’re smart.”
She had speculated that Qin Youxuan might influence Dan Hanjie, and that’s why she let her stay outside the door.
But she didn’t expect it to happen so quickly…
Rui Hui suddenly looked up at the man meditating across from her, her eyes glinting with suspicion.
He must have done something else, she was sure of it.
The sound of a broken glass echoed from the direction of the dining room, causing everyone’s nerves to jitter.
The next second, Qin Youxuan’s cry echoed, “Dan Hanjie…”
Everyone in the living room quickly jumped up from the sofa and rushed towards the dining room.
Upon entering, they immediately sensed something wrong.
Dan Hanjie’s tall figure was standing with his back toward them all, bracing himself against the table and hanging his head.
His tension was evident in the bulging veins on his hands, as if he was forcefully restraining something.
A momentary, suppressed growl slipped from his lips, “Get out.”
Qin Youxuan clung tightly to his waist from behind, pressing herself against him. Regardless of how Dan Hanjie attempted to break away, she insisted on gripping him tightly.
“Get her out of here!”
Turning his face over, Dan Hanjie roared.
The people near the door, seeing the rage in his red eyes, froze in place.
Rui Hui was about to move forward but Diwu Zexuan held her back.
He turned to face her, “Are you mad? Can’t you see how he is right now? If anything were to actually happen to Xuan while she is with him, then what?”
“I’m here, she will be safe. Right now, we should worry about Hanjie. Suddenly, why did he lose control?” Diwu Zexuan’s eyes sparkled as he responded calmly.
Rui Hui was stunned for a moment, then quickly pulled her hand away, glaring at him, “You are really selfish, don’t forget, Xuan is one of us now, I won’t allow you to treat her like a lab rat!”
Having yelled her piece, Rui Hui turned to stride towards Qin Youxuan.
Diwu Zexuan watched her proud back as she left, he squinted his brows but didn’t try to stop her.
“Xuan, come with me.”
No sooner had Rui Hui approached, intending to pull Qin Youxuan away, than Qin Youxuan buried herself further into Dan Hanjie’s embrace.
“I’m fine, don’t worry about me, I don’t want to leave him.”
Before Rui Hui could finish the sentence, her throat was caught in Dan Hanjie’s grip as he suddenly turned towards her.
Diwu Zexuan’s senses sharpened and he moved forward, only to see Rui Hui being thrown by Dan Hanjie straight towards the wall.
In a brief spark of a moment, Diwu Zexuan lunged forward, intending to cushion her fall.
With a loud ‘thud’, they both tumbled and rolled on the floor, staying down for a moment without getting up…
The sight of a suddenly frenzied Dan Hanjie left Qin Youxuan stunned.
He had never hurt her before, so she couldn’t imagine how horrifying he was being now…
Before she could react, her shoulder was suddenly gripped by Dan Hanjie.
The immense force of his grip, seemingly ready to crush her shoulder, caused Qin Youxuan to wince. Despite her lips bleeding from the pain, she didn’t make a sound.
Her hands remained fastened around his waist, unwilling to let go.
