Chapter 694: Chapter 694: An Explanation is Needed
“Do we really need to make a scene?” Ye Zhanxing’s eyes gleamed, his tall figure exuding coldness.
“That depends on Sir Ye’s decision.” Dan Hanjie slowly raised his gaze, responding emotionlessly.
The key to negotiating: if my opponent doesn’t budge, I don’t budge, if he moves, I move first.
Ye Zhanxing stared at him, his sharp aged eyes reflecting a touch of annoyance.
Over the years, even Dan Yi never dared to talk to him .
Yet, today, his dignity was challenged by someone younger.
“What if I insist on an explanation for today’s incident!”
Ye Zhanxing’s tone became solemn as he turned towards Dan Hanjie, “You should know very well, if Dan Yi found out that you offended the Ye Family because of a woman, chances are, you may not even save her life. Young men should not be too impulsive in their actions.”
Hearing this, Qin Youxuan nervously looked at Dan Hanjie, silently questioning him.
If he were really placed in an awkward position, apologizing to Ye Mingmei wouldn’t be a big deal.
Ye Zhanxing just wanted to save face, she could just let him.
“I don’t need you to make compromises for my sake. My woman, Dan Hanjie’s woman, doesn’t need to bow to anyone.” Dan Hanjie straightened her face, his long finger caressing her eyes, his enchanting eyes revealing a smile.
Looking at her charming little face, he paused, before turning towards Ye Zhanxing, “I appreciate Sir Ye’s goodwill, but I can only accept it in my heart…”
Dan Hanjie didn’t finish his sentence, but everyone present understood his intent.
He declined without embarrassing them in public; preserving the last bit of face for the Ye family.
“You will regret today’s decision!” Ye Zhanxing’s steadfast face showed a hint of callous intent as he pulled Ye Mingmei and abruptly left the restaurant.
“Dan Hanjie, did I mess up again?” Once all the bystanders had dispersed, Qin Youxuan drooped her head, asking quietly.
“Didn’t you say you had a dinner with the consortium today? Why did you suddenly come over?”
“They still haven’t come out.” Dan Hanjie’s eyes narrowed, but he wasn’t looking at Qin Youxuan. Instead, he glanced at the farthest corner box.
Qin Youxuan was stunned, before regaining her senses and hastening to explain, “Rui Hui just happened to be passing by and came to see me…”
“No need to explain, Xuan.” Rui Hui walked out of the box, “I am willing to accept the punishment, it has nothing to do with anyone else.”
Upon hearing that Rui Hui was to be punished, Qin Youxuan anxiously grabbed Dan Hanjie’s arm.
Dan Hanjie gave her a nonchalant glance before turning around, “If there is a next time, you don’t need to be with me anymore.”
He pulled Qin Youxuan and briskly exited the restaurant.
“Rui Hui just came to see me, why did you have to talk to her so harshly.” Qin Youxuan sat in the backseat, leaning on the car seat and closing her eyes after speaking.
“I haven’t asked you yet – what happened that had you so distracted, you could even bump into someone?” Dan Hanjie leaned forward, grabbing her chin and straightening her face, “I should be the one to be upset.”
“…If you think I am wrong, why didn’t you let me apologize to Ye Mingmei just now? If I had humbled myself, there wouldn’t be any trouble… Ah!”
Her lips were suddenly sealed, intensely ground together.
Qin Youxuan tried to push him away, but he bit her tongue. The pain made her gasp, and her eyes welled up.
She leaned back on the car seat, leaving him to have his way.
“I may not always arrive in time.” Dan Hanjie caressed her reddened eyes, bent his head to kiss the corner of her eyes, and pulled her petite body into his arms.
His chin rested on her shoulder, “In case I can’t make it in time…”
