Chapter 901: Chapter 901: I Didn’t an To Chapter 901: Chapter 901: I Didn’t an To Qin Youxuan was half asleep when she was startled awake, only to find herself sitting on Dan Hanjie’s lap, and it gave her quite a scare.
The instincts that had ford over this period kicked in, and she imdiately tried to stand up, “I’m sorry, I didn’t an to…”
As soon as she straightened up, Dan Hanjie pushed her back down.
Qin Youxuan tensed up nervously, completely unaware that they were now in the bathroom, let alone understanding how she could have ended up there from sleeping…
Dan Hanjie’s movents were swift yet gentle, as if he was wiping down a treasured possession.
Qin Youxuan was instantly dumbfounded.
She stared fixedly at his bewitching face, fearing it was just her imagination.
Dan Hanjie seed not to notice her gaze on him, quickly tidied her up, and wrapped her in a bathrobe from head to toe.
“You fell asleep with your hair still wet, don’t you have any common sense?”
Before Qin Youxuan could revel in joy, his scolding roared down at her, scaring away her secret delight.
She bit her lip and didn’t dare to make a sound.
When he was angry, if she talked back, he would only get angrier.
With Ning Yanan, it was just letting him finish his rant.
Qin Youxuan kept her head down and eyes closed, staying silent.
The very next second, instead of waiting for Dan Hanjie’s rant, she heard the sound of a hairdryer.
The warm air brushed past her ears.
Dan Hanjie’s long fingers moved through her hair roots, gently shaking her strands.
The awkward movent was nevertheless filled with earnestness.
The window in the bathroom was closed, and Qin Youxuan, tense, was finding it hard to breathe.
Several tis she wanted to speak, but each ti she saw Dan Hanjie’s stern face, she closed her mouth again bashfully.
Just as Qin Youxuan hesitated about whether to apologize or not, the sound of the hairdryer suddenly stopped.
Dan Hanjie didn’t give her a chance to speak, as he picked her up and went straight back to the bedroom.
All the bedding had already been changed.
Dan Hanjie set her on the bed but didn’t move himself.
“Aren’t you going to sleep?”
Qin Youxuan lay on the innermost side, leaving most of the bed empty before she turned her head to look at him.
Dan Hanjie looked at her awkward sleeping position, his eyes flickered, and he slightly opened his thin lips, “I’ll sleep in the guest room tonight.”
“…”
Qin Youxuan watched his retreating figure, the brightness in her cat-like eyes instantly dimming.
It turned out she was overthinking it; she had believed he was no longer angry…
Qin Youxuan lay flat, staring straight at the ceiling, sleep eluding her.
Her mind was preoccupied with how to appease Dan Hanjie, and as she pondered, she fell asleep.
…
The next morning when Qin Youxuan woke up, she first went to the guest room.
The tidy room showed no signs of having been slept in.
“Madam, Mr. Jie has already left,” the butler said in a low voice from the corridor.
“So early…”
Qin Youxuan twisted her fingers in her nightgown, biting her lip.
Whether he was genuinely busy with work or deliberately avoiding her, she couldn’t tell.
“Madam, Mr. Jie actually still cares about you,” the butler hesitated, wondering whether to tell Qin Youxuan.
Though Dan Hanjie was out from dawn till dusk, as soon as he returned to the villa, he would always first inquire about Qin Youxuan’s daily schedule.
Only after knowing she was all right would he silently enter his study.
“I know he’s still angry, you don’t have to comfort ,” Qin Youxuan replied cautiously, heading downstairs without looking up.
After breakfast, not wanting to mull over things alone in her room, she decided to take a walk in the yard.
When she grew tired, she sat on the swing and gently rocked back and forth.
