Chapter 572: Chapter 572: I Came Especially to Find You
It’s not a pleasant feeling to know that another man is keeping track of your wife’s menstrual cycle.
Dan Hanjie’s face grew cold in an instant.
His eyes swept over the soup in Jin Chenye’s hand, catching a hint of surprise, a flash of realization sparking in his mind.
He took the tray from Jin Chenye’s hand, turned, and returned to the bedroom.
Jin Chenye looked down at his empty hand, his brow furrowing slightly.
After hesitating for a few seconds, he turned and left.
Dan Hanjie found a bottle and poured all of Jin Chenye’s soup into it, then arranged for Yao to dispose of it immediately.
Upon seeing that Qin Youxuan had not woken up, he left the room once more.
Walking to the living room, he saw Qin Mo sitting there sipping tea.
A delicate heat hovered around his face.
Seeing Dan Hanjie coming downstairs, he pushed a cup of tea forward, “Care to join me for some tea?”
“Of course, I came down specifically to find you.”
Dan Hanjie walked up, speaking candidly.
Qin Mo was taken aback, then laughed, “You’re here for Xuan.”
Dan Hanjie sat down on the sofa, picked up the teacup in front of him, brought it to his nose, took a delicate sniff, and then put it back without drinking.
“It’s late, drinking tea at this time is bad for sleep. Don’t drink too much either, Youxuan will worry about your health.”
Dan Hanjie withdrew his hand, his gaze cool as he looked at the obviously startled Qin Mo.
“…Although Xuan is not my biological daughter, she was entrusted to me by a dear friend. Now that she is with you, can you promise me that you will take good care of her?”
Qin Mo put down his teacup, his expression suddenly serious.
“I’m not in the habit of making promises,” Dan Hanjie said lightly. Looking at the disappointed face of Qin Mo, his eyes flickered slightly, before he added, “She’s my wife, taking care of her is my responsibility, I don’t need to promise anyone.”
Qin Mo was taken aback, then understood his meaning.
This man was a real force to be reckoned with, not allowing himself to be taken advantage of at all.
In saying this, he not only made it clear that he would treat Qin Youxuan well, but also severed Qin Youxuan’s relationship with the Qin family. The Qin family could not hope to exploit their daughter for any benefits.
“Then the reason you came to find me?”
“To retrieve what rightfully belongs to her,” Dan Hanjie said in a deep voice, emphasizing each word.
Qin Mo stiffened, looked up at him in disbelief, “What do you mean by that?”
“You understand it, why ask again.”
Dan Hanjie picked up the teacup on the table, brought it to his lips, and took a gentle sip.
Calm, giving Qin Mo ample time to think.
“Even Xuan hasn’t suspected anything, how did you find out?” Qin Mo hesitated for a long time before he finally spoke in a low voice.
His old eyes staring intently at Dan Hanjie’s bewitching face, trying to decipher something.
Unfortunately, Dan Hanjie had concealed his emotions too well, leaving Qin Mo unable to guess his thoughts at all.
Dan Hanjie did not speak, he just swept a detached glance at him.
Qin Mo was starting to lose his patience, “Since you know that belongs to her mother, no one but Xuan will have it.”
“Even if it concerns her health,” Dan Hanjie took another sip of the hot tea and looked at Qin Mo.
“What are you talking about? What’s wrong with Xuan’s health?”
Qin Mo got up nervously. He moved too rapidly, turning pale and absentmindedly clutching at his chest.
“Don’t worry, she’s fine. It’s just a lingering obsession in her mind that hasn’t been put to rest, I’ll find out the truth for her.” Dan Hanjie’s voice was low and steady, each word centered around Qin Youxuan.
If Qin Mo couldn’t see his protection and caring for Qin Youxuan at this point, he would have lived in vain all these years.
