Yue Chi looked at Gong Han, who was still in shock, and his gaze subconsciously landed on the red mark on Gong Han’s neck. “I just came out and saw you coming to the study, so I wanted to follow you to see how you’re doing.”
Gong Han forced a smile and said, “I’m fine. I just came to the study to see if your brother is here.”
Yue Chi did not expect that Gong Han would still miss Yue Han so much even after being treated like this by him. He instantly felt sour.
“How can you be fine? You were unconscious for almost an hour at night,” Yue Chi said with worry and dissatisfaction on his face that he did not realize.
Gong Han only smiled faintly and said, “I’m fine, aren’t I? Your brother… He just lost his mind in a moment of anger. Oh right, wait here for a moment.”
Gong Han went to the bedroom and took out the small gift that Yue Chi had given her that night. She handed it back to Yue Chi and smiled. “I don’t think I’m suitable to accept this gift. Take it back. I don’t like such things anyway.”
Yue Chi frowned slightly and looked at Gong Han in confusion. It was only when Gong Han stuffed the item into his hand that he seemed to realize something.
Yue Chi was silent for a moment. He tightened his grip on the present in his hand and asked, “The reason my brother and you quarreled… Is it… because of me?”
Gong Han looked a little embarrassed. Her eyes flickered as she said in an embarrassed tone, “Your brother minds that we were talking about marriage previously. He suspects that I have feelings for you and seduced you.”
Yue Chi stood rooted to the ground in shock. He did not expect Yue Han to think that way.
Before Yue Chi could speak, Gong Han smiled and said, “Your brother has misunderstood. It’s just that I have my own pride. I think I need some time to organize my emotions and reconsider my relationship with your brother now that I’ve been slandered like this.”
“You’re leaving?” Yue Chi’s expression instantly became nervous and uneasy.
Gong Han only smiled and said, “I don’t know either. I just want to go out alone and think about it.”
Yue Chi became anxious. He pulled Gong Han and said anxiously, “Sister-in-law, don’t leave, okay?”
Yue Chi panicked. He was afraid that Gong Han would leave like his mother and never come back.
“I’ll explain to my brother. There’s nothing between you and me. There’s nothing, okay? My brother dotes on me. He’ll believe anything I say.”
Gong Han forcefully retracted her hand from Yue Chi’s hand and shook her head with a smile. “No need. Let’s leave it at that for now. I’ll return when I’ve thought it through.”
Yue Chi held the hand that was holding Gong Han and asked nervously, “When are you coming back?”
This scene was very similar to when he held his phone and asked repeatedly, “Mom, when are you coming back?”
He couldn’t remember how his mother had answered back then, but it seemed like she hadn’t answered anything at all. There was only silence.
Gong Han did not answer and remained silent. Yue Chi immediately became anxious and spread his hands to block Gong Han. His eyes were stubborn as he said forcefully, “I won’t allow you to leave.”
Gong Han frowned. The two brothers of the Yue family were very unyielding.
Gong Han had no choice but to patiently say, “Chi, I’m just going out to relax and think about your brother and me. I’ll naturally come back once I’ve thought it through.”
“How much time do you need to think about it?” Yue Chi asked without backing down. He didn’t want Gong Han to be like his mother, going up the mountain and entering the nunnery, staying there for more than 10 years.
“Where do you want to go for relaxation? I can accompany you. If you think that I’m an eyesore by your side, I can follow you from afar. I can’t let my brother be like my father—suddenly lose his wife and live like a widower.” Yue Chi could only say in a weak voice seeing that Gong Han didn’t answer. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
Gong Han seemed to suddenly understand why the Yue brothers’ reactions were so intense when they heard that she was leaving. It turned out to be related to her mother-in-law, who had left home for more than a decade.
No wonder Yue Han lost control of his emotions. No wonder Yue Chi asked her so anxiously when she was coming back. It turned out that they were afraid that she would be like her mother-in-law and never come back. Then, the Yue family would have another husband who had been abandoned by his wife.
Gong Han chuckled, unable to hold back the smile in her bright eyes.
