Chapter 274: It’s Him
"Ji Yan?" Shen Hanxing called out softly. Without waiting for Ji Yan’s reply, she threw away the glass shards in her hands. She raised her hand and hugged the man’s waist, her arms tightening around him. "I thought..." she thought she really couldn’t escape this time, she thought she was really going to fall into Shen Yong’s trap this time. The lingering fear welled up in her heart. She hugged Ji Yan tightly and observed her body at the same time. Other than the tiredness brought about by the medicinal effects, there wasn’t any discomfort on her body. Even her clothes were neatly put on. She immediately let out a long breath.
"I’ve said it before, I won’t let anything happen to you, my wife." Ji Yan planted a gentle kiss on Shen Hanxing’s ear, but he suddenly smelled the stench of blood. A profound light suddenly flashed across his dark eyes, a killing intent instantly overflowing from his cold and stern face. Then, before Shen Hanxing noticed it, he completely restrained himself and reverted to his aloof and dignified appearance. He raised his hand and turned on the lights.
The light in the bedroom was bright. Shen Hanxing’s eyes, which were used to the darkness, suddenly took in the bright light. She could not help but squint her eyes. When she opened them again, she met Ji Yan’s deep, dark eyes. She was stunned for a moment and unknowingly smiled. She asked, "How did you find out that something was wrong? When did you rush over?"
"I felt uneasy. I suddenly wanted to see you, so I rushed over," Ji Yan said casually as if it was a small matter. However, Shen Hanxing’s heart could not help but ache, even her eyes were a little sore. She rarely felt loved. Grandma loved her very much, but at her age, Grandma was actually not good at expressing love. Moreover, the burden of life had already weighed down on Grandma’s back, she did not have the time and energy to take care of Shen Hanxing’s young and sensitive mind.
Shen Hanxing was used to taking good care of others. However, no one had ever been willing to give up everything to find her because they were worried about her. The feeling she got when she knew he dropped everything to find her made Shen Hanxing’s heart beat fast, it was as though a crazy deer was living and running everywhere in her heart. She wanted nothing more than to smash her chest and fall into Ji Yan’s arms. She wanted to cry and laugh at the same time. She opened her mouth but could not say anything.
Ji Yan did not notice Shen Hanxing’s flurry of emotions. He grabbed her finger. There was a cut wound on her fair and delicate finger with bright red blood oozing out. This gash had been made when she had thrown the cup earlier.
