Chapter 684: Chapter 684: Losing Face in Front of Mother-in-law
Just like every visit to Jiang Yu.
Qin Youxuan naturally kneeled in front of his mother’s grave, and chatted away incessantly.
In her heart, Dan Hanjie’s mother was a remarkable woman. Despite her humble background and a disgraceful death, she understood the love each mother had for their child.
She couldn’t do much. The only promise she could make was to love him as Dan Hanjie loved her.
May the deceased rest in peace.
For a long time, Dan Hanjie remained silent, quietly listening to her rambling.
From how they met to how he tricked her into marriage…
She recounted every little detail. Although she complained, her eyes and brows shone with happiness.
Only when the incense burned out did Qin Youxuan stop talking. She wiped the photo on the tombstone clean with a handkerchief and stood up from in front of the grave.
Her legs tingled after kneeling for so long.
As she stumbled, Dan Hanjie held her tightly in his arms. “What’s wrong?” He asked.
“My legs are just numb. I’m fine. Please, put me down. Your mom might think I’m being dramatic.” Qin Youxuan replied with a worried expression.

Dan Hanjie’s heart stirred, and he lowered his head to kiss her on the lips.
His kitten was truly his salvation…
In the end, Qin Youxuan blushed and buried her face in Dan Hanjie’s chest, fists clenched against it.
Feeling embarrassed in front of her mother-in-law, she felt she didn’t need to care about appearances anymore.
“My mother would be happy to see us so in love.”
She must be dreaming if he thinks she’ll believe that.
Qin Youxuan lifted her head to glare at him, her anger palpable.
Turning back to look at the grave which was now open, she had a vague idea what Dan Hanjie intended to do.
She followed him forward, cautiously carrying the urn.
The smile on Dan Hanjie’s face slowly faded as he walked toward the highest hill on the ranch.
Qin Youxuan did not speak, simply following him in silence.
The two climbed to the top of the hill and stood there, facing the wind.
As Dan Hanjie opened the lid of the urn, Qin Youxuan suddenly grabbed his hand. “Do you really want to do this?”
She did not know what had happened to prompt him to make such a decision.
However, she knew that his heart must be filled with struggle.
Dan Hanjie didn’t reply, and his hand slowly reached into the urn.
Qin Youxuan bit her lip, knowing he had made his decision. She quietly stood by his side as he scattered the ashes into the wind.
The ashes dispersed in the wind, covering the whole ranch was a blessing for his mother’s dream.
To forever remain on this ranch that she loved…
On the journey back, Dan Hanjie didn’t drive. Instead, he held Qin Youxuan on the back seat of the car.
Holding her hand, he held her tightly in his arms.
No one knew how scared he was when he saw Dan Rong’s development case and found a picture slipped in it. He feared for her safety…
“It’s okay now, your mother knows that you’re doing this for her good. She won’t blame you,” Qin Youxuan reassured him.
Thinking he was blaming himself, she gently patted his back and nestled her head into his chest.
When they returned to the villa, Qin Youxuan suddenly remembered something important. “Dan Hanjie, Yaya just moved in with us. I would like to sleep with her tonight.”
Dan Hanjie paused in his steps and turned to look at her. “What did you say?”
His bewitching black eyes narrowed, flashing with a dangerous light.
Qin Youxuan knew now was a good time to stay silent, but she was worried about Yaya after Jiang Jinchen had left.
“Just for one night. You know, Jiang Jinchen was taken back by the Jiang family. Yaya is emotionally unstable right now…”
