365-Day Trial Marriage With Hunk: Wife's A Little Wild

Chapter 448: Chapter 448: Don’t Want Anything to Happen to Him
 

Before Qin Youxuan could react, she was gently forced down onto the sofa.

Startled, she looked up, “What’s wrong with you?”

“…”

Dan Hanjie did not respond, but instead gestured towards Yao.

Yao switched on the computer, pulled up a photo saved in the files, and positioned the computer in front of Qin Youxuan before respectfully retreating.

“Who is this person? It seems so familiar,” Qin Youxuan squinted at the image, curiously raising her head.

“I remember now. The man I saw on Extreme Love Island, it seems to be him. Back then, it was too dark, and I couldn’t see his face clearly. However, looking at this, it’s at least 80% similar. You found that man, didn’t you?”

“…”

It had been several days since he had heard her speak so much at once. Dan Hanjie was a little surprised but soon shook his head.

“No, but he has appeared in Fico City.”

Dan Hanjie spoke indifferently, not saying much more, nor did he mention the kidnapping of Bai Wei.

Pulling her back into his arms, an air of exhaustion around him, Dan Hanjie let out a deep breath, his chin resting on her shoulder.

“Kitten, do you believe in the saying ‘life after death’?”

“…”

Qin Youxuan froze.

His study was very dim. The curtains were not drawn open, the room only dimly lit.

In such an ambiance, when he asked her if people could come back to life after death, Qin Youxuan felt the hairs on her skin stand on end.

“I don’t believe in it.”

After some thought, Qin Youxuan shook her head.

“If rebirth after death were a real thing, I wish my mother could come back to life. There are so many questions I want to ask her directly.”

“…”

Dan Hanjie looked at her intently, then straightening her body, he gently touched her cheek.

He was discovering an increasing desire to touch her. It felt so real.

“I also don’t believe in it.”

He softly spoke, pausing between each word.

“…Dan Hanjie, is this person really not Bai Huo?”

Qin Youxuan knew he wouldn’t ask her to identify a person in a photo for no reason. She had seen his old photos with Bai Huo. They were both youthful and vibrant in those pictures, much more innocent looking than now.

Simply relying on two photos and a fleeting glance in the dark, she really couldn’t be sure.

“He is not.” Dan Hanjie’s intoxicating eyes turned cold, uttering the words ‘not him’ with a rigid determination.

“…”

Qin Youxuan didn’t say anything more.

Deep down, she too hoped it was not him.

Although she had only met him once, the mysterious man from Extreme Love Island had left an impression on her that was both positive and negative, completely unlike the Bai Huo she had imagined.

If Bai Huo was truly alive and lurking about stealthily, it would indeed be a massive shock for Dan Hanjie.

She didn’t want anything untoward to happen to him.

As Qin Youxuan lowered her head in contemplation, a warm breath suddenly brushed against her face. Momentarily lifting her head, she found Dan Hanjie blocking her lips with his.

“Mmm…”

His kiss was a mix of uneasiness and urgency.

Seeing the familiar depth in his eyes, Qin Youxuan found herself unable to push him away.

She slid her hand around his sturdy waist…

After what felt like an eternity, Dan Hanjie finally released her.

Picking her up from the sofa, he carried her back to their room.

Exhausted, they fell into a slumber, arms wrapped around each other.

…

Qin Youxuan woke up with a start after just a short while.

Turning her head to the side, she could see Dan Hanjie lying beside her, eyes closed. The dark circles under them were prominent.

Qin Youxuan reached out, mimicking his motion from earlier, her fair fingers gently tracing his eyes and eyebrows.
