Chapter 352 My Business is Your Business
By the time Mu Yiliang was fully awake, the sky had already darkened.
Yan Sijue held her tightly in his arms, as if afraid she might run away.
Even in the dim light, Mu Yiliang could see the contentment on his face.
After what had just happened, Mu Yiliang firmly believed that he had indeed been abstinent these past few years... The fierce intensity made her feel as if she was being devoured whole.
She couldn’t remember how many times they had done it; in the end, she was already in a daze, only able to feel the man’s low, heavy breathing.
If she wasn’t certain the room was soundproof, she might have died from embarrassment!
Her body was still tired, not wanting to move at all, yet, she had never felt so satisfied.
She couldn’t help but stretch out her arms and hold him.
Just then, Yan Sijue suddenly opened his eyes and flipped her over to pin her down.
His gaze fell on her shoulder.
"What is this about?" He stared at her intently, his eyes filled with scrutiny and determination.
"Just a minor wound..." she lazily explained, "I don’t remember how many years ago, but I accidentally got pricked once."
"Really?" He gently caressed her shoulder with his hand, "But I see, this is clearly a gunshot wound!"
Mu Yiliang froze.
"Fine, it’s a gunshot wound." Knowing she couldn’t hide it from him, she confessed honestly.
"What on earth happened?" His face was taut, looking somewhat frightening.
Originally intending to confess truthfully, Mu Yiliang was scared by his stern demeanor.
"Uh... I think it was about a year ago, there was an accident with Xiao Qi and me." She explained cautiously, "But, it wasn’t serious, don’t have that look..."
"Not serious?" His tone was laced with pain and astonishment, "Do you know how far this is from your heart? And you say it’s not serious?"
"Really, I’m fine anyway... Are you disgusted with me?" She took the initiative.
"How could I be..." Yan Sijue smiled helplessly, lowered his head, and gently kissed it.
Mu Yiliang froze for a moment.
Just the existence of this scar made him so distressed, if he knew that she was hurt saving him, he’d surely feel even more pained and guilty.
Such a stubborn man...
Yet, she felt quite comforted.
"Xiaoze doesn’t know, I don’t want him to worry, so don’t tell him." Mu Yiliang instructed.
His face still looked grave and fearful.
"In the future, you won’t let any chance for me to get hurt, will you?" She softened her voice, looking at him earnestly.
Having the woman you love look at you like that would make any man feel invigorated.
Let alone a Young Master Yan long enchanted by her.
His eyes deepened, his face extremely serious, "Of course! I promise, no one will ever harm you again!"
She curled her lips into a smile and nestled in his arms, "I believe you."
"So, no matter what happens, you must remember that you have me, and you can’t rush into things on your own!" He emphasized worriedly!
The last time, she preferred to face danger alone rather than accept his help, and it still haunted him.
"I won’t, I won’t, now that you are my man, my matters are your matters, who else would I rely on but you." Mu Yiliang expressed sincerely.
"That’s more like it..." He expressed satisfaction and bent down to seal her lips.
