After staring at Su Yue for a few seconds, Jiao Chen bent over and caressed the swollen area on her face, not saying a word .
His gaze was warm .
Su Yue blinked and smiled . “Where were you planning on taking me for dinner yesterday?”
“I’ll take you there when you’re better,” Jiao Chen replied in a calm voice .
He retracted his hand, his fingers grazed her face . His fingers were cold to the touch, unlike the emotions in his eyes .
Su Yue froze and Jiao Chen retracted his arm .
Yan Rusheng didn’t say a word . He knew how much the little lass had suffered just by her thin and beaten-up face .
After standing for a while, he said to Xuxu, “I’ll be back . ”
Xuxu knew that he was going to find Ming Ansheng, so she nodded and agreed .
Yan Rusheng looked back at Su Yue with a deep gaze and turned away, walking out of the door .
Ming Ansheng was standing by the window at the end of the quiet walkway . A lighted cigarette was between his fingers .
Yan Rusheng gently closed the door and coldly stared at Ming Ansheng before walking over .
The cleaning staff had just cleaned the floor, so the window was open . The cold breeze blew in and the smell of smoke filled his nostrils before he even reached Ming Ansheng .
“Ming Ansheng, what are you thinking about?”
His tone sounded sarcastic .
Ming Ansheng looked over at him and remained silent . He gazed back outside the window, watching the blue sky . It was winter in the capital city, so blue skies were rare .
The warm sunlight shone, but… his heart was still cold .
Yan Rusheng walked over and stood next to him . He turned his head slightly to look at him and he smirked . “Is it true that you flew back from Country M on a private plane?”
Of course, Ming Ansheng knew what he was insinuating . He frowned and looked at Yan Rusheng . “Say it . Don’t mince your words . ”
He was feeling troubled as well . He took a deep puff of the cigarette and threw the half-used cigarette into the ash pile on top of the dustbin .
Yan Rusheng wiped off his cold smile and his gaze turned cold . “About the Tang family…”
Ming Ansheng interrupted, “I’ll settle it . Leave it to me . ”
His voice was even colder .
“She’s my sister . She’s not related to you,” Yan Rusheng replied coldly .
Ming Zhongsheng and Xuxu could tell that he was the one who had kissed Su Yue . So of course, Yan Rusheng could tell as well . This was his warning to him .
Ming Ansheng became anxious . “Third Yan!”
He knew that Su Yue didn’t like him and they couldn’t be together . But he was still flustered when he saw Yan Rusheng’s disapproving attitude .
He had never wished that they would support his absurd feelings for her .
But why…?
Yan Rusheng looked at him . In all seriousness, with no coldness or sarcasm, he said, “Ming Ansheng . Xuxu, Su Yan, and I wish for that little lass to live a happier life in the future . ”
Ming Ansheng nodded . “I’ve got it . ”
He never even wished he could get together with her .
