Chapter 1440: Chapter 1440: Can’t Tolerate a Speck of Sand in the Eye
“What illness did you say she has?” Dan Hanjie’s tall figure froze, staring in astonishnt at the doctor.
“Depression, and also acts of self-loathing. Generally, it’s easy to contract such ntal illnesses after a severe blow or a major change in life circumstances that leaves one unable to express their emotions. The young madam fainting could likely be due to depression-related insomnia.”
“…”
Dan Hanjie’s enchanting eyes tightened, reflecting a dark light.
He turned to the butler beside him, who promptly escorted the doctor out.
When Dan Hanjie returned to the room, Qin Youxuan had already fallen asleep.
Like a child exhausted, she slept soundly, yet her brows were still tightly furrowed.
Dan Hanjie walked over and sat beside her, reaching out to caress her pale cheek and tracing the contours of her eyebrows and eyes.
“Being by my side only brings you pain,” Dan Hanjie murmured to himself.
His stoic face bore no expression, but his eyes brimming with sinister allure revealed a hint of reluctance.
Knowing it was a trap, yet neither of them could escape.
All because they cared too deeply, unwilling to tolerate even a speck of sand, let alone the vengeance for a father’s death.
Qin Youxuan woke up after a while and sat on the bed, hugging her knees, staring at a little bird flying in through the French windows.
When Dan Hanjie ca upstairs with dinner, this was the sight that t him.
Her petite body curled up in a bundle, gazing blankly into the distance with an unfocused look in her eyes.
Watching a bird perched on the railing, she even showed a hint of envy.
Dan Hanjie felt a tightness in his chest, an indescribable sense of suffocation overwhelming him.
“Aren’t you hungry? I’ll feed you,” he said nonchalantly as he walked forward, placing the dinner on the table and looking at her.
Qin Youxuan’s body trembled slightly, as if startled, she glanced at him before getting off the bed, sitting at the table, and starting to eat.
Her actions told him she didn’t want him to feed her.
After eating, without looking at him, Qin Youxuan pressed the intercom to call the butler to clear up, then went to the adjacent nursery to find her son.
Now, all her emotional energy was invested in her son.
Only when holding her son could she feel her heart still beating vividly.
Dan Hanjie didn’t say anything, just followed her.
Watching her enter the nursery, watching her gently coax her son, yet unwilling to et his gaze squarely.
Dan Hanjie stepped forward, whether it was a kiss or a hug, Qin Youxuan treated it with indifference, as if bitten by a dog.
Even knowing her ntal state was suffering, Dan Hanjie was deeply affected.
Wishing he could rge her into his body.
“You’re crushing my son.”
Qin Youxuan, her face flushed, gasped in his arms with a cold tone, if not for her slightly unstable breath, one wouldn’t have noticed they had been passionately kissing just a second ago.
“…”
Dan Hanjie stepped back, his gaze lowered to the little one caught between them.
“Gege…”
Little Tingye, knowing he had interrupted his dad’s mont, laughed happily.
Such a little rascal.
Dan Hanjie pinched his little nose, and the little guy imdiately burst into tears.
“Slap—”
Qin Youxuan imdiately swatted his hand away, glaring at him fiercely, then tenderly consoled her son.
Great, now mother and son were united in animosity.
The silent days always passed exceptionally slowly.
Qin Youxuan no longer initiated conversations with him, and if Dan Hanjie wanted her to look at him, he could only provoke their son.
