365-Day Trial Marriage With Hunk: Wife’s A Little Wild - Chapter 399

Chapter 399: Chapter 399 His Embarrassing Appearance
 

“I’m sorry.”

She didn’t expect to be caught up in a wild storm, even encountering a mudslide, barely making it back in one piece.

Qin Youxuan held her tightly. They both felt as if they had survived a catastrophe.

After about a minute of hesitation, Qin Youxuan didn’t see Dan Hanjie. She hastily pushed Ning Yanan aside and ran outside.

She looked around anxiously.

“Where is Dan Hanjie? Why hasn’t he come back yet?”

“…”

Jiang Jinchen and Ning Yanan exchanged glances, both remaining silent.

“Where did he go? Didn’t the housekeeper say he’d sent someone to notify him? Why hasn’t there been any news.”

“Hanjie found an uninhabited area in the direction you left. There were signs of footprints at the entrance, but because the heavy rain had washed them away, he wasn’t sure if someone had entered, so…”

Jiang Jinchen’s eyes darkened, but he did not continue speaking.

“…He went in?”

Qin Youxuan’s body went limp, collapsing on the doorframe. She reached out to grab hold of the door, then quickly stood up again.

“I’m going to find him.”

That place is so dangerous, how could he go inside…

Dan Hanjie, you idiot!

“Qin Youxuan, wait!”

Jiang Jinchen quickly grabbed Qin Youxuan, preventing her from rushing out and forcefully pulling her back.

“If you go now, it will only add another person who needs looking after! If you really care, you shouldn’t have harmed him in the first place. Stay here and think everything through. I’ll go find him.”

After giving Qin Youxuan a piercing look, Jiang Jinchen stepped past her and drove off towards the uninhabited area at full speed.

“…”

Qin Youxuan stood outside the door, taking in the distance for a long while in the same pose.

After what felt like an age, she finally heard the sound of a car approaching in the distance.

“Whoosh——”

The sports car skidded to a halt right in front of her.

The car door was pushed open quickly.

Dan Hanjie, displaying his towering figure, was the first to step out of the car.

His resolute face was pale as a ghost, his deep, dark eyes fixed on Qin Youxuan, who was standing by the gate, his gaze never wavering.

His shirt was torn, his arm was covered in scratches.

One pant leg was rolled up mid-way, covered in slick, dark mud. His shoes had lost all their color…

She had never seen him in such a ragged state before.

In her memory, Dan Hanjie was a man who sat high and mighty, who casually held the lives of others in his hands.

Even when he was injured and at his weakest, he still held a regal quality that was untouchable.

Tears instantly welled up in her eyes…

Qin Youxuan dashed forward, throwing herself directly into his arms, hugging him tightly.

“I’m sorry…Dan Hanjie, I’m sorry…”

“…Kitten.”

The whisper barely audible, as if he was afraid he might disturb his own dream.

Slowly, Dan Hanjie raised his head, resting his hand on her wet hair, stroking it soothingly.

“It’s me, I’m here, I’m sorry…”

“It’s good that you are back.”

Dan Hanjie tightened his arms around her, pulling her into his embrace. His voice was low, almost as if he was speaking to himself.

The next second, his strong body collapsed on Qin Youxuan.

“Dan Hanjie!”

“Quick! Call the doctor…”

…

All night.

The whole beachside villa was in chaos.

The inflammation caused by the wounds had induced a high fever in Dan Hanjie that wouldn’t break.

Despite shifts of emergency medical personnel, none could bring his temperature down.

In merely a few hours, his fever had skyrocketed to forty degrees.

“This can’t go on any longer. If his fever doesn’t break, I’m afraid he could end up with brain damage…”
