C140 Continuation of the Cold War

Ruan Xihan looked at the screen and couldn't recover her senses for a long time. Her clear eyes were even more complex.

After a long while, she stretched out her trembling finger and pointed towards the phone screen.

Suddenly, a pair of bony hands grabbed her slender wrist.

Ruan Xihan's heart skipped a beat as she subconsciously looked toward the owner of the hand.

Jin Yanchen's pitch-black eyes were filled with a dangerous aura, the imposing look on his sharp face was clear, and he did not use much strength to grab onto her wrist, but Ruan Xihan could not get rid of it no matter what.

"You …"

Ruan Xihan asked in astonishment. Her clear eyes constantly avoided his sharp gaze.

"What are you trying to do? What do you want to know? "

After a long while, Jin Yan Chen's expression relaxed a little, his wine-filled lips slightly parted as he coldly spoke.

"I …"

Ruan Xihan's face was filled with hesitation as she lowered her blushing face. She felt a bit embarrassed.

After a long while, she took a deep breath and then coldly said, "Si Qianchen's matter, is it related to you?"

Jin Yanchen froze in place, a trace of pain flashing through his pitch-black eyes.

So it turned out that she had ordered a candlelight dinner to accompany him in drinking and laughing. This sort of restraint was all for the sake of another man, for the sake of the person that she had always said she did not care about.

At this moment, Jin Yanchen's heart felt as if it was being slashed by a knife. His stern face was full of sorrow.

"Am I such a person in your eyes?"

Jin Yanchen said, his pitch-black and deep eyes were locked on Ruan Xihan's body, not willing to part with her for even a moment.

All the men he protected and nurtured with all his heart were thinking of another man.

"Tell me, is this matter related to you? whether it's a car accident or an injection of anesthetic. "

Her clear eyes were now much sharper than before. She could clearly see the pain in Jin Yan Chen's eyes, but she still endured her emotions and raised the doubts in her heart.

Jin Yanchen's eyes instantly turned ice-cold. The fingers gripping her wrist began to move slightly, and her knuckles turned white.

Pain spread out from Ruan Xihan's arm, but she only frowned and did not express it. She only wanted to say something.

"Do you really not believe me like this?"

After a long time, Jin Yan Chen's expression relaxed, his black eyes lost their sharpness.

She lightly pursed the corner of her lips, and then her cheeks slightly moved as she softly said, "I'm willing to believe you, but all kinds of evidence points to you, so no matter what, I won't be able to believe you."

Her voice was as clear and cold as ever, but her slightly drooping eyelids showed that she could not conceal her disappointment.

"You don't want to believe me?" Because of his anger, Jin Yan Chen's voice was a little hoarse and dark, it still sounded cold to the point it made people shiver, "Is there only Si Qianchen in your heart? What am I to you? A contract husband? Or your temporary safe haven? "

Jin Yan Chen's body was trembling, and the veins on his forehead were exposed.

"What are you talking about? I just don't want to drag anyone down just because of me. "

Ruan Xihan's jade white face had a slight blush on it. The moment she heard Jin Yanchen's words, her anger increased, and she started speaking in a sharp tone.

"Yesterday, why did you leave in the middle of the night? Why did you delete the call and text messages from my phone? Why did you stop me from knowing the truth? Or are you hiding something? "

Ruan Xihan questioned one after another, each sound was like a sharp knife, piercing into Jin Yanchen's heart.

Jin Yanchen's pitch-black eyes were filled with pain. His heart felt as if it had been cut by a knife. The slender fingers under the table were tightly clenched. His joints were white and bloodless.

Her cold gaze was locked onto Ruan Xihan the entire time. Her piercing gaze seemed as if she wanted to say that Ruan Xihan had seen through her.

Ruan Xihan was neither humble nor arrogant, her face full of determination as she met Jin Yanchen's gaze, the corner of her mouth slightly pursed to hide the pain in her heart.

After a long time, when Ruan Xihan thought that Jin Yanchen wouldn't say anything, a few words slowly came out from his cold lips, "If it was me who did it, what would you do?"

If I did it, what would you do?

She hurriedly lowered her head, concealing the grief and anger on her face. Her tightly clenched lips had lost all color.

"If you did it, I'll definitely call the police!"

When the tears completely disappeared, Ruan Xihan suddenly raised her head and said coldly. Her clear and bright eyes were also filled with fierceness, and her pale face was filled with determination.

After saying these words, Ruan Xihan's heart felt as if it had been cut by a knife. The only bit of determination in her heart instantly collapsed.

When Jin Yanchen didn't say anything like this, in Ruan Xihan's heart, as long as he was willing to explain, she would come up with all sorts of ways to compensate Si Jingchen with her own ability.

However, Jin Yanchen didn't explain or say anything. He just indifferently left out those words, and then there was no more sound.

When Jin Yanchen heard Ruan Xihan's words, his clearly defined face immediately became tense, and lost all color. His slightly squinted eyes could not hide the sorrow in his eyes.

After a long time, he suddenly stood up and walked toward the hallway. He didn't even look back as he coldly said, "You can do whatever you want. I'll keep you company anytime you want."

The cold voice was like ice as it pierced into Ruan Xihan's heart.

After he finished speaking, Jin Yanchen opened the door and left. Not long after that, the sound of a car came out.

Ruan Xihan knew that Jin Yanchen had already left, and she was the only one left in that huge villa.

Her body was stretched out on the chair, and her eyes were filled with tears. Her sparkling tears flowed down her pale face.

In such a large villa, only Ruan Xihan's sobbing could be faintly heard.

Late into the night.

"..."

The next day, Si Jingchen slowly woke up while Qu Wanru, as usual, remained on her bed. However, due to her overwork, she had already fallen into a deep slumber.

His indifferent gaze made contact with Qu Wan Ru's messy hair, and her lips were especially dry. After a long while, he finally spoke, "You …" "Always here?"

He really wanted to ask where Ruan Xihan was, but when he looked around, he didn't see her.

Qu Wan Ru was startled awake by the familiar voice, then she quickly raised her head. Her slightly cold eyes were filled with surprise and joy when they met with Si Jingchen's eyes.

"Elder Brother Chen, you're finally awake!"

A cheerful voice, an unconcealable surprise.

"Yes."

Si Jingchen softly replied. His tone didn't contain much surprise.

He gently lifted his eyes and softly asked, "Kind of cold …" She … Where is it? "Why didn't I see her? I remember …"
