’Cancel what?’
’What did Yu Lan just say?’
’Annul the engagent?’
’How could such a beautiful little female say sothing so cold and cutting.’
’No.’
’Absolutely not.’
There was no way he would agree to annul the engagent.
This was the only connection Jun Lin Yuan and Yu Lan had left. It made him feel like a person adrift at sea, clinging to a piece of driftwood. This was his last glimr of hope.
As long as the engagent was intact, there was always a chance for him to win her over.
Jun Lin Yuan would absolutely not agree to annul the engagent.
The man’s heart felt like it was being scorched by a blazing fire. His mind, usually sharp enough to devise hundreds of battle strategies in an instant, spun wildly as he tried to find a legitimate reason to refuse.
anwhile, in the private room next door, the corners of Huo Zhanting and the others’ lips curled up high when they heard what Yu Lan said.
’Perfect!’
’Annulling the engagent is perfect.’
’If we had known, we would have arranged for Lanlan and Jun Lin Yuan to et sooner and just get rid of this damned engagent.’
Now that Yu Lan had taken the initiative to annul the engagent, Jun Lin Yuan must be panicking. They were eager to see how he would try to squirm his way out of this one.
Li Yucheng wished he could pop open a bottle of champagne to celebrate on the spot.
At that mont, Jun Lin Yuan quickly realized he couldn’t find a reason to refuse. The problem was, he had been far too arrogant when he first t Yu Lan.
’If I try to bring up feelings now, Yu Lan will probably just find it strange.’
’I’ve got it!’
Jun Lin Yuan’s mind raced. He had considered countless possibilities in what was, in reality, only a single second.
Yu Lan had just finished speaking.
The next second...
"PFFT!"
Jun Lin Yuan had secretly used his Internal Energy to jolt his own internal organs.
Fresh blood trickled from the corner of his lips.
Yu Lan’s beautiful eyes widened instantly.
She shot up from her seat and rushed to Jun Lin Yuan’s side, her face filled with anxiety and worry.
"Jun Lin Yuan, what’s wrong?"
"Why are you suddenly coughing up blood?"
"Didn’t you say your injuries were all healed?"
"COUGH, COUGH, COUGH!"
In response to Yu Lan’s questions, Jun Lin Yuan said nothing. He only clutched his chest, letting out a muffled cough. His face turned pale in an instant, and he turned away as if to hide it, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth.
His weak voice sounded out.
"An accident."
"It’s just an accident."
"Lanlan, believe . I’m really all better now. You don’t have to worry."
"Just a mont. Let compose myself, and I’ll be fine in a second."
After speaking, Jun Lin Yuan took two deep breaths.
But the next second, his body seed to overload from the effort.
His chest shook violently, his muffled coughs growing more pronounced, and his back, turned toward Yu Lan, trembled intensely.
’That damned bastard!’
’He actually used the ultimate move of playing pitiful on Yu Lan.’
In the next room, Huo Zhanting and the others were grinding their teeth in frustration.
The smiles that had just appeared on their faces vanished in an instant.
’This is bad. Lanlan, you can’t fall for his bullshit!’
’He’s faking it! He’s deliberately tricking you because he doesn’t want to annul the engagent!’
The most infuriating thing in the world is watching your love rival pull a fast one right in front of you, knowing everything, yet being unable to rush out, beat him up, and teach him a lesson about honesty.
Huo Zhanting and Su Xingye’s knuckles cracked as they clenched their fists.
An imnse rage surged in the three n’s hearts toward this "delicate white lotus," Jun Lin Yuan.
The hearing of a 3S-level male was extrely acute. Jun Lin Yuan had known Huo Zhanting, Su Xingye, and Li Yucheng were in the next room the mont they arrived.
Hearing how his act had made the three of them breathe heavily with anger, a smug expression flashed across his handso face, hidden from Yu Lan, and the corners of his lips quirked up.
’So, you all get a taste of this too, Huo Zhanting!’
「At this very mont」
Seeing Jun Lin Yuan continuously coughing up blood, Yu Lan completely forgot that her purpose for coming was to annul the engagent.
The beautiful little female’s face was etched with worry, yet Jun Lin Yuan kept his back to her, as if he was afraid of scaring her and didn’t want her to see.
In a flash of panic, worry overwhelming her, Yu Lan knelt on the sofa, grabbed Jun Lin Yuan’s head from behind, and forcefully turned him around to face her.
"Jun Lin Yuan, what is really wrong with you?"
"Don’t lie to ."
"Is it... is it because the injury you got while saving at the tournant still hasn’t healed?"
They were very close now.
The beautiful little female’s face was magnified before Jun Lin Yuan’s eyes.
A wave of heat spread rapidly from his heart to his neck. Jun Lin Yuan’s earlobes turned crimson, as if they were about to bleed, and his Adam’s apple bobbed slightly.
He lowered his eyes, sowhat embarrassed, and spoke in a hoarse voice:
"It’s nothing."
"My body is mostly recovered."
"It’s just that... sotis I feel a little unwell."
"Liar."
The mont Jun Lin Yuan’s words fell, the rims of Yu Lan’s eyes reddened, and she imdiately retorted.
’Jun Lin Yuan must be saying that because he doesn’t want to feel guilty.’
She had seen it herself at the tournant. A laser cannon blast that huge had pierced right through the Red Fla Fierce Tiger’s body.
Otherwise, why would the Jun Lin Yuan who had been so high-spirited, strong, agile, and perfectly healthy before the tournant now be coughing up blood?
Other than the injury from the tournant, Yu Lan could think of no other explanation.
Yu Lan’s heart ached for him, and teardrops fell one after another.
Seeing this, Jun Lin Yuan’s own heart ached for her instantly.
The proud, handso man hurriedly reached out to cup Yu Lan’s small face, wanting to wipe away her tears.
"Don’t cry, don’t cry."
"I’m really okay. Really, really, I’m truly all better now."
At this point, a sliver of regret entered Jun Lin Yuan’s heart; he shouldn’t have used this to deceive Yu Lan.
’If the beautiful little female finds out...’
In the private room, kept at a constant 24-degree temperature, Jun Lin Yuan suddenly shivered.
In the room next door, the expressions on Su Xingye, Li Yucheng, and Huo Zhanting’s faces grew darker and darker, each one more grim than the last.
If they weren’t afraid that rushing out now would lead to Yu Lan questioning why they were following her, they would have already burst in and given Jun Lin Yuan a brutal beating.
’How can such a shaless male exist?’
’Playing pitiful to trick the kind and gentle Yu Lan.’
’And Yu Lan actually fell for it.’
’It’s so infuriating!’
Huo Zhanting and the others were extrely displeased.
On Yu Lan’s end, however, just as Jun Lin Yuan’s hand was about to touch her cheek, she sharply realized their posture was far too intimate.
She abruptly pulled back.
Jun Lin Yuan’s large hand froze in mid-air.
A sense of loss was plain to see.
Yu Lan raised her own hand to wipe her eyes. Her gaze, clearer and more brilliant than gemstones, fixed on Jun Lin Yuan as she spoke, her small face extrely serious.
"Jun Lin Yuan, if you’re not feeling well anywhere, you have to tell ."
"You were injured because you saved . I will... I will take full responsibility for you."
Yu Lan’s voice was a little hoarse.
Her aning was simple.
Since Jun Lin Yuan was injured saving her, she would pay for all related dical expenses and lost wages in full.
Even if she had to borrow money, she wouldn’t shortchange Jun Lin Yuan.
anwhile, the three n in the next room could no longer hold it together.
"Damn that Jun Lin Yuan."
An angry, low curse was heard.
Huo Zhanting slamd his fist down, shattering the table in front of him.
