Fierce Ex-wife: President, Please Be Careful-Chapter 328 - Rescuing a damsel in distress (1)

Chapter 328: Rescuing a damsel in distress (1)

“That’s all?” Zhao Youlin was a little surprised. She had thought since Han Yichen had asked her in such a solemn manner to bring a message, the content of the message must be very mind-blowing, but she did not expect that…

“Yes, as for the rest…” Han Yichen’s dark black eyes flickered slightly as he said firmly, “I’ll tell her myself when I get back.”

Zhao Youlin froze up for a while before she seemed to realize something. She gasped.

An Yue and Han Yichen…They… No wonder during that day when she first met Han Yichen, the atmosphere between them was…

“Ahem, ahem…” Zhao Youlin coughed lightly, suppressing the jubilation she secretly felt. She said hypocritically, “President Han, I’m sorry, but I’m afraid I can’t pass that message to An Yue for you.”

“Why?” Han Yichen’s expression changed slightly. When his face darkened, he actually looked a lot like Zhao Shunrong, but unfortunately, Zhao Youlin was not in the mood to marvel at that at this moment.

Zhao Youlin lightly heaved a sigh of relief. She stared straight at Han Yichen and said in a serious manner, “You’re a man who is going to leave only a message without saying goodbye before you go, and you are asking a girl to just wait for you to come back. Don’t you think that is too much to ask?”

Han Yichen’s expression became more and more grim. Zhao Youlin, however, was not going to give him a chance to argue. She continued to say, “Even if you really have an urgent matter you need to take care of, even if you are feeling shy to tell this to Yue Yue in person and you need others to pass her the message, don’t you think you should also give a definite waiting period to a girl? At least let her know how long she should be waiting for you. You’re just going to leave without saying much, and you’re asking a girl to wait for you. What if you’re leaving for eight to ten years, is Yue Yue really going to wait for you for eight to ten years too? Can a girl waste away her youth for a wait like this?”

Zhao Youlin’s words successfully affected Han Yichen. At this moment, this man, who was always calm about anything seemed to slightly falter, and that did not always happen.

A long silence spread silently between the two. Just when Zhao Youlin thought that Han Yichen would not give any response to her and she had started to think of another way to keep him here, she suddenly heard a deep male voice say something.

“A month.”

“What?”

“A month’s time. Not later than a month, I’ll come back to see her.”

Zhao Youlin felt much relieved after hearing that. Thank goodness it was just a month, at least he was not going to disappear for more than six months or a year.

“Okay, one month then. If you don’t come back after a month, it’s up to Yue Yue whether she wants to continue waiting or not. You should know that you have neither given Yue Yue any promises, nor have you given her a rightful identity. You should know better than me how good Yue Yue is. If you come back even a few days late, I don’t know what will happen.”

The meaning behind was that An Yue was neither your girlfriend nor your titular wife. If you came back late, if there was already some other man in her life by then, you coming back would be useless.

Han Yichen understood what Zhao Youlin was implying. His expression became even grimer.

Zhao Youlin hooked her lips in satisfaction. Now she was no longer afraid this man would not be back on time.

The problem of his return date was solved, but Han Yichen’s sudden decision to leave was causing a lot of trouble for Zhao Youlin.

She had made a promise to the old master yesterday in an assured manner that she would keep this man here. Who knew that after only a day, this man was going to leave.

Although with An Yue here, plus the period he gave, she was not afraid that he would not return by then, but there were some things that could not be delayed.

Right now, this man was still hanging around under her nose. After he left and came back, who knew if she could still get close enough to get the evidence from him that could be used for the test.

That could not be. There was nothing she could do to make him stay today, anyway. No matter what, she had to get him to leave something that could be used to verify his identity, such as blood, hair or something like that.

But the difficulty was how she could get these things without being noticed by Han Yichen.

Zhao Youlin walked out of the lounge after Han Yichen, trying to think of the best way she could do both. She frowned so much that the arc between her brows made people feel sorry for her.

Luckily, someone had helped her solve this problem soon.

An Yue had been a little distracted since she heard the boys’ conversation. After being stopped by An Qi several times in the kitchen for taking the wrong spices, she finally resigned herself to taking off her gloves. Under the worried gaze of several girls, she was dragged aside by An Qi, who forced her to take a break.

“Here you go, have a good rest here for a while. It is still early, there is no hurry.” An Qi put a cup of hot water into An Yue’s hand, and then admonished her with worries before turning around and leaving.

An Yue was alone holding the cup in her hand. Feeling the faint warmth coming from her palm, spreading little by little to all parts of her body, she breathed out lightly and comfortably.

Just then, the door of the lounge opened. Han Yichen and Zhao Youlin came out of it one after another.

An Yue stood up from her chair almost reflexively. She nodded hastily after meeting the gaze of Han Yichen and Zhao Youlin. Then, she quickly ran toward the side.

Zhao Youlin and Han Yichen were stunned, not understanding why An Yue would react like this after she saw them.

Before they could think further, a loud cry had pulled everyone’s attention over. Han Yichen looked at the direction that sound came from. When he saw the scene over there, his expression changed.

It turned out that because An Yue was walking too hurriedly, she had accidentally bumped into Xing and the others who were moving a kitchen equipment shelf. The cup of hot water in her hand splashed over them.

They threw away the shelf in their hands and tried to dodge it as they were startled. And the equipment shelf that came down just smashed straight toward An Yue.

“Arghh…”

“Watch out!”

“Yue Yue!”

Along with the screams that rose and fell, there was a muffled thud. And everyone’s heart could not help but shudder.

A few of the more timid girls even covered their eyes with their hands, not daring to look.

As they did not hear another sound after a while, they put down their hands and looked at where the accident happened. Though they were stunned after looking at the scene that was not far away from them.

An Yue was also startled when she bumped into the others. And her tiny body leaned back slightly because of the collision.

When she finally steadied herself, she suddenly heard shouts from around her. An Yue instinctively looked up and saw the shelf that was slowly falling toward her.

Her mind went blank. At that moment, she clearly knew that she should dodge it, but her body could not keep up with her mind.

Just when An Yue thought this would end badly for her and she closed her eyes to prepare for the pain, a strong force suddenly came from the side. The force directly pushed her to the ground, and then An Yue felt that something was on top of her.
