Chapter 629: Chapter 629: Waiting for These Words
“I went to meet my uncle today. There was a welcome party at the mansion, all elders were present. I had a few drinks with them. During the party, several of my female cousins also came over…”
Dan Hanjie didn’t continue speaking, because Qin Youxuan had silenced him by pressing her hand against his lips.
“I didn’t ask for an explanation. As I told you, I trust you. However, even though I trust you, I don’t like to smell other women’s fragrance on you. So, you still need to take a shower.”
On this, Qin Youxuan was very firm.
His kitten, she was really stubbornly adorable.
However, he absolutely loved her jealous appearance.
Dan Hanjie bent down to kiss her lips, but Qin Youxuan stepped back first.
“No shower, no physical contact.”
Dan Hanjie stood straight up, looked reluctantly at her lips that were close at hand, and turned to go upstairs.
When Dan Hanjie came downstairs, the housekeeper had just served two freshly cooked plates of pasta.
The appetizing color stirred up one’s appetite.
Qin Youxuan looked up at him and started eating first.
“Didn’t you have dinner?” Dan Hanjie caught sight of her eagerness and frowned unhappily.
“I did, I really did! If you don’t believe me, ask the housekeeper. I’m just hungry really fast,” Qin Youxuan said, her eyes squinting in laughter as she swallowed the mouthful of noodles, pointing at the housekeeper beside her.
The housekeeper who received Dan Hanjie’s questioning glance quickly nodded, “Mr. Jie, Madam Young did have her meal. Even the medicine was taken on time. Assistant Yao also saw it.”
The housekeeper effortlessly handed the issue over to Assistant Yao standing next to him.
“I have so many witnesses, you have to believe me,” Qin Youxuan chuckled, her eyes squinted in mirth as she took another bite of the noodles.
Dan Hanjie stared at her playful face, the corners of his mouth slightly curving up, and he began to eat his noodles at a leisure pace.
Qin Youxuan liked eating noodles, all kinds of noodles.
As a result, his midnight snacks had also all turned into noodles.
Despite this, Dan Hanjie didn’t feel anything was amiss. On the contrary, he enjoyed watching her satisfied expression when eating noodles.
“By the way, when you went to see your uncle, he didn’t give you a hard time, did he?” Qin Youxuan asked with her fork paused, looking up.
Dan Hanjie calmly replied, elegantly sending a mouthful of noodles to his lips.
Each movement exuded elegance.
One couldn’t take their eyes off him.
Watching him eat was a pleasure in itself.
Seeing Qin Youxuan remaining silent, Dan Hanjie’s eyes flickered, reining in his emotions.
Dan Yi didn’t make things difficult for him, the one who made things difficult was Qin Youxuan.
He didn’t miss the fact that Dan Yi’s so-called compromise was purely to avoid antagonizing the situation. Any step back he took was only temporary.
Those who showed up at the party weren’t really his female cousins. The Dan family was severely gender-biased and they wouldn’t allow daughters to attend significant family events.
Those who showed up unexpectedly in the later part of the event were young ladies from several other prominent families.
Dan Yi’s motive was very clear.
After a while, Qin Youxuan finally squeezed out these words and continued eating her noodles.
Not until she had finished all her noodles did she notice that more than half of Dan Hanjie’s pasta was still left, “Are you full?”
Dan Hanjie hummed lightly, looking at her with a deep gaze.
Qin Youxuan felt uncomfortable under his gaze and, obediently patted her stomach “I am full as well.”
“I’ve been waiting for you to say that.”
Dan Hanjie instantly stood up from his chair and moved towards her. The next second, he scooped Qin Youxuan up in a princess carry and headed upstairs.
