h4Chapter 355: Chapter 355: The Secret He Cannot Be Told/h4

    The disappointment on Qin Sixue’s face was caught by Ji Wei’s eyes.

    She walked over and sat down beside her. Qin Sixue turned her head to look at her, her eyes faintly misted.

    Ji Wei leaned close to Qin Sixue’s ear and whispered, "Si Xue, earlier Second Young Master Xi acted like that because he was feeling awkward, not ming you."

    When Xi Nanfeng left, Ji Wei clearly saw his face slightly redden.

    It’s easy to miss when you’re in it, but clear to outsiders—it was evident that Xi Nanfeng deliberately spoke harshly to Qin Sixue to disguise his inner panic.

    It seems Second Young Master Xi has feelings for Miss Qin but doesn’t dare to face them.

    Surprise shed across Qin Sixue’s face as she asked, somewhat incredulously, "Really?"

    Ji Wei nodded with a serious expression.

    A slow smile spread on Qin Sixue’s face, like blossoms blooming in spring—delicate and beautiful.

    "Weiwei."

    Mo Qian called her.

    Ji Wei gave Qin Sixue an encouraging look, then stood up and walked back to Mo Qian’s side.

    Mo Qian wrapped his arm around her shoulders and said to Qin Sixue, "Miss Qin, I’ll take Weiwei upstairs to rest."

    Qin Sixue responded with a soft "Okay."

    Ji Wei nced up at the man’s serious expression, but her face suddenly reddened.

    Rest...

    "What are you thinking about?" He lowered his gaze and asked quietly.

    "N-nothing."

    Ji Wei shook her head, feeling a little guilty.

    Mo Qian had already seen through her thoughts. His thin lips brushed lightly against her soft strands of hair, stopping by her small, fair ear. "If you really can’t hold back..."

    "Absolutely not!"

    Ji Wei spoke with righteous determination.

    Mo Qian raised his hand to pinch her flushed cheeks, smiling tenderly and lovingly. "Denial doesn’t make it true."

    Blood rushed to her face, and Ji Wei wished she could hide in a turtle shell.

    As they entered the bedroom, Mo Qian closed the door behind them.

    "What did you just say to Qin Sixue to instantly lift her mood?"

    Ji Wei turned around, her face full of mystery. "A woman’s secret."

    "You keep secrets from me too?" The man stepped forward, wrapping his arm around her slender waist and pulling her directly into his embrace.

    She buried herself in his chest. "Of course. Doesn’t everyone have a few secrets?"

    "So, what other secrets are you keeping from me?" Mo Qian’s deep dark eyes stared into hers.

    Ji Wei’s heart skipped under his gaze.

    The only absolute secret she couldn’t reveal was her reincarnation.

    If Mo Qian knew that her changed attitude toward him stemmed from remorse brought by her rebirth, would he be angry?

    In the beginning, guilt might have drawn her closer to him, but after spending so much time together, she’d long since fallen in love with him, and he had be the most important person in her life.

    Reincarnation’s greatest blessing was that she did not miss Mo Qian again and that they became each other’s "one and only."

    "I don’t have..." Ji Wei’s voice clearlycked conviction.

    A sharp chill emerged in Mo Qian’s gaze, making Ji Wei too afraid to meet it directly.

    "You really are hiding something from me, aren’t you?"

    Ji Wei lowered her head, avoiding the question.

    He had already guessed it. She had no room for denial.

    The warmth at her waist faded as the man suddenly released his grip. Without looking at her, Mo Qian walked straight to the window and answered a call there.

    "Old Mo... We can’t make it back tonight." On the other end of the line came Ye Cheng’s voice.

    "You were caught by Yamamoto Yu’s men?" Mo Qian gripped the phone tightly, his gaze darkening.

    "No... We’re safe for now, but the car was wrecked... A Cheng and I will find a ce toy low."

    Ye Cheng’s voice sounded weak, and Mo Qian’s heart sank. "You’re hurt."

    "Just a small injury... Can’t say more. I’ll hang up now."
