"And you." Ye Ranran faced Huo Yi: "Eventually you will regret it, but I will never forgive you, not even if you die."
"Alright, Ranran doesn’t want to see you. All of you, get out." Jun Mochan expulsed the crowd.
Huo Yi held his bleeding wrist and left without uttering a word.
Xu Zi followed closely behind him.
Private Detective Wang looked at Ye Ranran with interest, gave her a thumbs-up and then left.
With no one left, Ye Ranran finally collapsed into Jun Mochan’s arms.
"Have you cried?" Jun Mochan’s finger brushed across her eyes.
Ye Ranran turned to cling to him: "I didn’t cry."
"I’m sorry, I arrived too late." Jun Mochan’s voice carried an apology.
"No, you were quite in time." Ye Ranran tiptoed and kissed him on the cheek.
If this were a normal situation, Jun Mochan would have certainly followed with a French kiss, but upon lowering his head and seeing the bruise on Ye Ranran’s neck, he let out a long sigh.
"I’m sorry that you’ve been wronged." His fingers traced the bruise on her neck.
Although his elder brother is severe, he wouldn’t resort to physical violence. What was unexpected was that today he...
Jun Mochan was extremely disappointed.
"It’s okay, the swelling will go down soon." Ye Ranran turned to comfort him.
Jun Mochan sighed, left to get some ointment, and applied it on Ye Ranran’s wound.
As he passed by Huo Yi’s room, he heard crying.
"I didn’t mean it; mom told me to give her a hint, to deter her from pushing the matter further." Xu Zi used Huo’s mother as an excuse.
"But you shouldn’t have hurt yourself." Despite his frustrations, Huo Yi was too soft-hearted to blame her and clasped her in his arms.
Knowing she did something disappointed him. In his heart, she was always pure and flawless.
"I couldn’t carry it out, felt guilty about it, and got overly anxious..." she tried to justify her actions.
"Alright, you also caught a chill, go and rest quickly. I can’t stay here for long, I have to leave tomorrow." His work nature didn’t permit him to stay outside for long.
"I’ll leave with mom and dad." Xu Zi sneezed.
Seeing her shiver from the chill, Huo Yi nodded: "Just be careful."
"Don’t worry, Xiao Shi will be here in a couple of days, she’ll keep me company."
Thoughts of Xia Shi flashed in Huo Yi’s eyes, a flicker of an indefinable light, but he didn’t say a word, merely nodding slightly.
"Honey, what about the wedding dress I didn’t have time to wear at the wedding banquet?" Ye Ranran asked.
At a wedding banquet, everyone knows that there is more than just one dress. The one she wore wasn’t the one that Jun Mochan had personally sewn.
He probably still had it saved back home.
"Why bring that up all of a sudden?" Jun Mochan looked a bit unnatural.
Ye Ranran held his hand: "I know, I know everything already, quickly tell me, where did you put the wedding dress?"
"It’s in the wardrobe. I originally wanted to surprise you." Little did he know that it would all turn into a scare.
"Can I wear it for you to see? I don’t want to waste your heartfelt gesture."
Wearing it for his eyes only would also be wonderful.
"We’re going to hold a second ceremony back home, save it for then." He was going to announce to everyone that she was his rightfully wedded wife.
"Are you going back to City B?"
"Yes, some responsibilities can’t be just dropped. I was adopted by the Jun family since childhood, initially going through politics, now business, even so, some powers can’t be simply relinquished."
In the past, Jun and Huo families had immense political and army powers, something Ye Ranran knew well.
Presently, Jun Mochan didn’t spell it out and Ye Ranran understood his intention.
"Alright, wherever you go, I will follow." Ye Ranran narrowed her eyes, her gaze firm and resolute.
