365-Day Trial Marriage With Hunk: Wife’s A Little Wild - Chapter 523

Chapter 523: Chapter 523: Turning a Blind Eye
 

Ever since the incident, Dan Hanjie had been ruthlessly eliminating anyone who opposed him, killing indiscriminately.

Although many innocent lives were lost, many of those who died were indeed his enemies.

The old traditional factions of the Dan Family, who had been stripped of their power, would certainly not take this lying down.

A hard battle was inevitable.

“The old man will not interfere. Even if I take out his people, he will just turn a blind eye, waiting for me to incur the wrath of many and be attacked by the crowd.” Hanjie sneered, a sharp glint fleeting in his eyes, as he lazily closed them.

“Find out Wei’er’s whereabouts as soon as possible and rescue her.”

“Yes.”

…

At the break of dawn, Qin Youxuan crawled out of bed.

Feeling the chilly air around her, she frowned in displeasure.

Hanjie didn’t return to his room. Was he sleeping in the guest room or didn’t he sleep at all?

Qin Youxuan pondered for a while, then began to take action.

First, she went downstairs to instruct the butler to prepare breakfast earlier. Then she checked the bodyguards and vehicles accompanying them for their outing at Yujing Villa. After making sure that everything important was in order, she returned to her room to pack.

After packing the essential items and letting the butler load them onto the vehicles, she went to look for Dan Hanjie.

When she opened the guest room, the icy air indicated that its owner hadn’t returned overnight.

Then it must be the study.

Qin Youxuan quickly headed towards the study, panting heavily by the time she reached the door.

After composing herself, she knocked on the door.

As soon as her hand touched the door, it was pushed open.

It wasn’t locked…

Qin Youxuan hesitated, then walked in.

In the pitch black room, she found the man reclining on the sofa with a quick scan of her eyes.

Dan Hanjie was supporting his head with one hand, half-closing his eyes. She couldn’t tell if he was sleeping or just shut his eyes to rest.

Just as Qin Youxuan was about to call him, she hesitated, and fell silent.

She tiptoed over to him, gently massaging his temples with her small hand.

The light and refreshing scent from her made the man, who was pretending to sleep, genuinely close his eyes.

He slept for several hours like this.

When Qin Youxuan got tired of massaging, she grabbed his coat, gently draping it over him.

After confirming she hadn’t woken him, she walked over to the side, pulled up a chair, sat next to him, and fell asleep.

The two of them, each in odd positions, had the best sleep since the incident.

…

The entire convoy was moving smoothly down the road.

“Gurrr…”

As soon as Qin Youxuan got in the back seat of the car, her stomach embarrassingly started to growl.

Her embarrassed face turned slightly red as she met Dan Hanjie’s probing gaze and quickly turned her head away.

She overslept and missed breakfast; the result was a hungry stomach.

“Stop at the restaurant ahead,” Dan Hanjie ordered emotionlessly.

After a good night’s sleep, he felt much better.

On the other hand, Qin Youxuan, having missed a meal, looked wilted, like a frostbitten eggplant.

“No need, I can bear with it. Guanlan Lake isn’t far from here.”

“Then you can stay in the car and wait,” Dan Hanjie leaned in, looked down at her, and coolly replied.

…

Qin Youxuan was utterly stunned.

Wasn’t he stopping the car because he heard her stomach growl?

“Whoosh…”

The car smoothly stopped in front of the restaurant. Dan Hanjie opened the car door and strode towards the restaurant.

“That’s so unfair!”

He left her behind to watch the car.

It’s ridiculous; she wasn’t a bodyguard, why should she stay and watch the car!
