Ningwan’s ears turned slightly red, and her bright eyes carried a hint of embarrassment.
Was Madam Zhan’s duty to help him undress?
She came to be Madam Zhan, not a maid.
"What, do you want to be sent back?" Zhan Hanjue asked coldly.
Ningwan immediately walked over and deftly unbuttoned the second button of his shirt.
Zhan Hanjue was very tall, about over 1.85 meters, while Ningwan was a standard female height, only 1.68 meters.
So it was a bit difficult to unbutton him; she had to stand on tiptoe slightly.
"Why are you wearing a veil on your face?" Zhan Hanjue looked at her and asked.
Ningwan lifted her hand and waved it in front of his eyes.
But just as she waved it, Zhan Hanjue caught it.
Ningwan’s heart sank, she lost her balance, and immediately tilted forward, falling into his arms.
The unique fragrance of a woman wafted into Zhan Hanjue’s nose, a scent that was peculiar and somewhat familiar.
Zhan Hanjue frowned, but before he could take in enough, Ningwan struggled to get out from his arms.
Her hand was still held by him, and she asked in a low voice, "Can you let go of me first? You’re hurting me."
"You haven’t answered my question yet." Zhan Hanjue frowned.
Ningwan also frowned, how could a blind man know she was wearing a veil? And how did he know her hand waved in front of his eyes?
"Don’t think because my eyes can’t see that I don’t know anything." Zhan Hanjue leaned closer, his voice low and warning in her ear.
Ningwan bit her lip, he really was sharp!
If he didn’t have abilities beyond ordinary people, how else could he have single-handedly built the Zhan family’s business empire in such a short time?
"The same question, I don’t want to repeat it a third time."
Zhan Hanjue’s tone already carried a hint of displeasure.
Ningwan immediately answered, "My face was injured in a car accident, I’m afraid of scaring people."
"Just as well, I can’t see, so you don’t need to wear a veil around me." Zhan Hanjue released her.
Ningwan quickly rubbed her slender wrist.
His grip strength was really strong; after holding for such a while, her wrist was red and faintly painful.
"But there are others at home, I’m afraid of scaring them." Ningwan said sensibly.
Zhan Hanjue said coldly, "You are Madam Zhan, who would dare to dislike you?"
In her heart, Ningwan sneered, I think you’re just afraid of others disliking you for being blind, so you’re using me as a shield.
But she didn’t argue with him, just softly said "Hmm" and gently removed the veil.
Ningwan’s eyes were extremely beautiful, her enchanting gaze intoxicating.
Her delicate little nose was straight and beautiful, the intact half of her face’s skin as white as snow, shining with a lustrous glow. Her lips were naturally red, like morning rose petals kissed by dew, making people want to taste them.
This should have been an extremely beautiful face; just looking at half of it, she was breathtakingly beautiful.
Unfortunately, the other half of her face was covered with hideous scars.
These scars seemed to have been there for many years, winding across the half of her face. No matter how beautiful the other half was, it couldn’t eliminate the fear and loathing for this half.
After removing the veil, she deliberately looked up at Zhan Hanjue, imprinting her entire face in his pupils.
But Zhan Hanjue showed no reaction, his eyes calm as still water.
Ningwan had no choice but to continue undressing him.
After the shirt was off, she started to take off his pants.
With the pants off, only the underwear was left, and Ningwan felt awkward.
Though she had seen a man’s body before, but such a living...
"Run the bath." Zhan Hanjue ordered in a cold voice.
Ningwan breathed a sigh of relief, quickly got up to the bathroom, prepared the water, and came out ready to help him in.
But Zhan Hanjue didn’t need her help and walked in on his own.
His steps were steady and without hesitation, making Ningwan doubt whether he was really blind.
Even if someone was blind for many years and very familiar with their surroundings, being as skilled as he was still difficult.
No, she must find a chance to probe him.
Suddenly, Zhan Hanjue’s voice came from the bathroom.
Ningwan shuddered, furrowing her brows slightly.
Why was he calling her in at this time?
She joined the Zhan family only to investigate the truth about her parents’ car accident back then, not to actually become his wife.
