Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Today, I hit Lin Wan. She’s injured and looks awful. Yichen didn’t want to see her, so he came to find me. This proves that he’s thinking about me.

Xiao Yichen exuded a cold aura and firmly pulled Xu Yanxi away from him.

Upon staring at Xu Yanxi with an intense glare, Xiao Yichen questioned coldly, “Who gave you the audacity to touch her?”

The coldness in Xiao Yichen’s voice surprised Xu Yanxi.

It was not at all what she had anticipated.

Upon listening to Xiao Yichen’s question, Xu Yanxi maintained her composure and responded calmly, “Do I need the courage to hit her? I’ll hit her if 1 want to.”

Xiao Yichen emphasized. “She’s my wife.”

“I’m your woman as well.” Xu Yanxi persisted, continuing his sentence.

“You’re not,” countered Xiao Yichen.

Since when is she my woman? I have never been intimate with her, merely holding her hand on rare occasions.

Upon hearing Xiao Yichen’s rebuttal, Xu Yanxi was speechless and angry. She couldn’t find a valid argument to counter his claim.

Xiao Yichen’s anger didn’t wane, and he continued to glare at Xu Yanxi while trying to keep his emotions in check.

“Yanxi, this is the first and last time,” Xiao Yichen stated methodically, clarifying his intentions. “I won’t do anything now, but 1 won’t tolerate you harming her again. If you touch her again, even a single strand of her hair, there will be consequences.”

“You won’t tolerate it?” Xu Yanxi confronted Xiao Yichen boldly, showing no fear of him. “What will you do? Kill me? Can you do that?” n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Xiao Yichen couldn’t give her a straightforward answer. Can he do that? It seems nearly impossible.

Their shared history since childhood was undeniable, and Xu Yanxi still held a special place in his heart. After all, she had remained in his memory for over twenty years.

“Chen, you promised to protect me for the rest of my life. Are you breaking that promise?” Xu Yanxi reminded him of a pledge made in their childhood.

1 haven’t forgotten those childhood memories at all, and I believe Yichen hasn’t forgotten them either.

Now, Xiao Yichen was even more silent. That year, when he was nine and she was seven, he promised to protect her for the rest of her life. So, he had never lied to or harmed her or even kept her in a special place in his heart.

And these were all before he met Lin Wan.

However, even with these promises, he won’t allow her to hurt his wife.

“Yanxi,” Xiao Yichen called her name, his voice still icy. “I remember our past, but remember what I’ve said today. Do not touch her. Or you’ll be crossing a line I won’t tolerate.”

Upon witnessing the resolution in Xiao Yichen’s eyes, Xu Yanxi couldn’t help but feel a wave of fear.

“You know how I deal with things that cross that line,” Xiao Yichen declared sternly, turning away and departing without setting foot inside the Xu residence.

Xu Yanxi watched as Xiao Yichen’s car left, feeling her confidence wane.

Her fate wouldn’t be pleasant if she truly pushed beyond Yichen’s limits. She knew Yichen’s nature well.

The more she contemplated this, the more anger she felt toward Lin Wan. Xu Yanxi’s hatred for her grew. It is all that despicable woman’s fault, all of it.

As she stared at the departing car, Xu Yanxi stomped her foot angrily, and her hatred for Lin Wan increased even more.

“Lin Wan, just you wait for me,” Xu Yanxi muttered as she watched Xiao Yichen’s car disappear..
