CHAPTER 28: CHAPTER 28: KEEP HER AWAY FROM TRASH

EDITOR: HENYEE TRANSLATIONS

Lin Yuyang was extremely excited. He never expected that Ningwan would attend the party with him.

Luckily, he didn’t let Ye Xuan, that tigress, come today. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be such a good opportunity to be alone with Ningwan.

"Ningwan, don’t worry, I’ll divorce Ye Xuan when I get back. No matter what, I have to divorce her this time," Lin Yuyang promised earnestly, his face flushed with excitement.

Ningwan asked him, "Who is Leng Ziqing?"

"Huh?" Lin Yuyang was momentarily confused, then quickly pointed to a handsome, elegant man to his right and said, "That’s Leng Ziqing, the heir of the Leng Group."

"Is the current director of the Leng Group still Lady Leng?" Ningwan asked.

Lin Yuyang sighed, "Yes, but Lady Leng is of age now and is gradually handing over the company to Young Master Leng. However, Young Master Leng is still young and has just returned to the country not long ago. Once he’s adjusted here, the Leng Group will be in his hands."

Ningwan nodded.

Lin Yuyang, curious, asked, "Ningwan, why are you asking about the Leng family?"

Ningwan chuckled lightly, "Just asking. By the way, you’re two years older than me. Do you still remember things from our childhood?"

Lin Yuyang thought she wanted to reminisce with him and immediately got excited, "Of course I remember. When we were kids, I always played with you. We had an engagement before we were even born. I always knew you would be my wife, so I always protected you. Do you remember?"

"Do you also remember the last meal we planned? The time my parents and I were in a car accident?" Ningwan asked again.

Lin Yuyang paused, showing a pained expression, "Ningwan, that was a long time ago. Don’t dwell on it. Look forward, you have a long life ahead of you..."

"Just tell me, can you remember or not?" Ningwan interrupted him with a frown.

She wanted to know what happened back then. Who wanted to hear his nonsense?

Lin Yuyang nodded, "I remember, I was so happy to meet you and even prepared a doll as a gift for you. But then..."

"How could you not tell me you’d be here?" Zhan Hanjue, appearing out of nowhere, wrapped his arm around Ningwan’s waist.

Lin Yuyang was about to flare up seeing another man holding Ningwan, but when he saw it was Zhan Hanjue, he grudgingly stepped back.

After all, they were the legal couple; he was just the other man. How could he act arrogantly in front of the legitimate spouse?

Ningwan looked at him in surprise, "Why are you here?"

Zhan Hanjue gave a slight smile, his eyes deep, "It’s my cousin’s party, of course, I would show up."

Ningwan realized he was Leng Ziqing’s cousin.

However, she didn’t know Zhan Hanjue was specifically here for her.

Everyone knew that Zhan Hanjue never attended any gatherings. How could Leng Ziqing invite him?

It was because someone following Ningwan reported to Chen Tan, saying that Ningwan and Lin Yuyang went to the Leng family party.

Chen Tan immediately reported this information to Zhan Hanjue.

Frowning, Zhan Hanjue decided to come over.

As soon as he entered, he saw Ningwan standing with Lin Yuyang, chatting and laughing. His face darkened as he strode over, wrapping Ningwan’s waist to pull her away from trash.

"Is Mr. Lin very idle?"

After asserting his claim, Zhan Hanjue looked at Lin Yuyang.

Lin Yuyang shivered. How could a blind man know who he was, and how did he know which direction he stood?

No, there’s something off about his eyes.

It seemed... he could actually see him?

"His vision has recovered," Ningwan said.

Lin Yuyang’s face turned pale. He actually recovered?

Doesn’t that mean...

Looking at Zhan Hanjue and then at himself, the gap between them widened even more.

Would Ningwan come back to him?

"What were you talking about just now?" Zhan Hanjue lowered his head, looking gently at Ningwan.

Ningwan was still angry, her face tense, "Nothing much."

Afraid that Zhan Hanjue would ask Lin Yuyang, she said to Lin Yuyang, "Let’s continue our conversation another day."

Lin Yuyang nodded and quickly made his exit.

He dared not offend Zhan Hanjue.

"Still angry?"

After Lin Yuyang left, Zhan Hanjue released her waist.

Ningwan sneered, looking up at him, "Mr. Zhan put on quite a show. What a waste to not be an actor. With your skills, you could definitely win an award for Best Actor."

"If I had told you earlier, would you have revealed you’re Bai Zhi and treated my blindness?" Zhan Hanjue retorted.

Ningwan fell silent.

Revealing her true identity was out of the question, as for the treatment...?

"You’re my wife. I can’t let you stay by my side without knowing who you are," Zhan Hanjue said. "If you know my identity, you should also guess why I stay with you!" Ningwan said.

Zhan Hanjue nodded, "When you asked me questions as Bai Zhi, I was certain."

At this moment, Leng Ziqing walked over.

Actually, he had noticed Zhan Hanjue a while ago.

Zhan Hanjue’s looks would make him a focal point anywhere.

As soon as he walked in, he attracted many people’s attention, including Leng Ziqing.

But having studied abroad, he hadn’t seen Zhan Hanjue in two years and wasn’t sure if it was really him.

In his memory, Zhan Hanjue never came to such occasions.

So after observing for a while to confirm, he finally walked over.

Zhan Hanjue saw Leng Ziqing approaching and lowered his voice to Ningwan, "We’ll talk about this at home."

Ningwan followed his gaze and saw Leng Ziqing too.

Leng Ziqing quickly reached them, surprised, "Cousin, is it really you?"

"Long time no see," Zhan Hanjue said, looking at him.

Leng Ziqing was even more surprised, "Your eyes."

"They’ve recovered," Zhan Hanjue said.

Leng Ziqing was both surprised and delighted, "Really? That’s great. Mother will definitely be thrilled."

Ningwan frowned.

The joy on Leng Ziqing’s face didn’t seem fake. Was he genuinely happy?

But Lady Leng didn’t have a warm relationship with Zhan Hanjue, so this Leng Ziqing...?

"And who might this lovely lady be?" Leng Ziqing asked, looking at Ningwan.

Ningwan smiled slightly, introducing herself, "I’m Ningwan."

"Are you the new cousin-in-law? There were rumors that the third Miss of the Ye Family was extremely ugly, but I didn’t expect you to be a beauty," Leng Ziqing chuckled.

Ningwan blushed, "You’re too kind, Young Master Leng."

"Hanjue, you’re here too," Leng Linglong exclaimed, rushing over with her cheeks flushed with excitement.

Zhan Hanjue wrapped an arm around Ningwan’s waist, giving a slight nod, "We’re leaving now."

With that, he forcefully led Ningwan away by the waist.

Leng Linglong was left frustrated, stomping her feet in anger.

She didn’t even get to exchange a word with Hanjue before he abruptly left.
