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

Chapter 375: Chapter 375: Is He Thinking Like a Villain?
“Bang——”

Startled, Qin Youxuan rose from the edge of the bed, knocking over a water cup. The water spilled onto her dress, soaking it.

“What did you say?”

“Jin Chenye held a press conference, officially refuting previous rumors, acknowledging Miss Qin as the daughter of the Qin family.”

“…”

He agreed.

Why…

The fingers Qin Youxuan was leaning on the bedside table tightened, she had no idea how to respond.

Water trails dripped down her thighs from the hem of her skirt, and she forgot to change her clothes, standing there dumbfounded.

“Your clothes are wet.”

Dan Hanjie’s dark eyes narrowed at her dazed, little face. Annoyed, he reminded her.

His deep voice was filled with an inexplicable harshness.

Jin Chenye, always trouble.”

“…”

Qin Youxuan looked down at her skirt and wrung it out.

“I’ll go downstairs to change clothes first.”

With that, Qin Youxuan hurried towards the door.

Just a few steps out, she paused at the tug of Hanjie’s hand, raising a quizzical brow at him.

“This is our room, where else do you plan to change?” Dan Hanjie spoke through gritted teeth.

Would she always act so absent-minded whenever Jin Chenye was involved?

“…”

Startled, Qin Youxuan pointed at the suitcase by the door, stammered a response, “I just need to get some clothes.”

“…”

Was he paranoid?

Definitely not.

Even a blind man could see that she still harbored feelings for that man.

Dan Hanjie unhanded her, watching her daze off again as she carried her suitcase into the dressing room, not emerging for quite a while.

His dark gaze grew heavier, radiating a sinister light.

All night, Qin Youxuan didn’t say a word.

After leaving the changing room, she constantly watched the news coverage on TV.

Again and again.

Occasionally, she would stop only to ask the butler downstairs if any urgent newspapers had been rushed off the press.

Once they were out, she would hug clusters of newspapers back to her room, reading them over and over again, as if she couldn’t believe what her eyes had seen and could only express her shock in this way…

“Enough! How many times will you read before you stop!”

Dan Hanjie pushed himself up and was about to get out of bed.

“…”

Spotting his movements, the Qin Youxuan lying on the couch finally responded.

She threw down the newspaper, scrambled off the couch, and in a second was beside his bed, “You can’t get up yet!”

“So you can continue to ignore me? Qin Youxuan, you only know how to give your spouse the cold shoulder?”

“…”

She wasn’t.

It was just that Jin Chenye’s compromise had left her a bit unsettled.

She had thought he would be obstinate to the end, refusing to agree to continue their sibling relation.

But…

Subconsciously, Qin Youxuan looked up at the piles of newspapers on the couch, her eyes glittering slightly.

It seemed she owed Jin Chenye, even more…

“Dan Hanjie, I don’t want to argue with you. Are you hungry? I’ll go down and ask the butler to make a late-night snack for you.” Qin Youxuan glanced at the time, turned around, and left.

Dan Hanjie watched her retreating figure, gripping the bed rail tightly, visible veins pulsating on the back of his hand.

…

For several days, Qin Youxuan did not mention the previous incident, focusing instead on Hanjie’s health.

When he was asleep, she sat quietly on the couch, reading “Criminal Law”.

When he was awake, she was by his side, just sitting, not speaking.
