Chapter 867: Long-Lost Passion
Qin Jian took off his jacket and sat beside An Hao, taking the towel from her to help dry her wet, long hair. "I’m not worried, it’s others who worry you! They made you suffer! I’ll go talk to Brother Li about this later."
"Don’t! It’s pointless even if you talk to him! If talking was useful, Xin Ni would not have been able to stay at the Li Family for so long! You should go see Xiaolin tomorrow, and his group of warriors, too. If it wasn’t for their help tonight, I reckon even jumping into the Yellow River wouldn’t have cleared my name." Thinking about what happened just now, An Hao still felt really fortunate.
She had arranged things with Xiaolin, and the warriors who came later obviously hadn’t planned it; they had reacted on the fly after hearing about it.
An Hao explained the details of tonight’s events to Qin Jian and said with a smile, "That meal that night wasn’t in vain!"
"But this conflict also stemmed from that night," Qin Jian said with a frown.
"Even if it weren’t for that method, Xin Ni would have used other ways. But it’s okay, I didn’t lose out. Tonight, I gave her a good dressing down; that should keep her quiet for a while."
"I didn’t protect you well. It’s my dereliction of duty," Qin Jian felt very sorry to his wife for this as a husband.
"This is a matter between women! You can’t get involved! Don’t worry, there are still more good people; Sister Chunhua and Sister Guifang both helped me. I won’t be at a loss, you believe me!" An Hao gently patted Qin Jian’s hand to comfort him.
