Lin Wan sobbed even harder as Xiao Yichen tried to console her.

At that unexpected moment, Lu Hao entered the villa.

Lu Hao had come to find Lin Wan. Upon reaching Blue Bay villa, he noticed the open door and decided to enter.

However, what he encountered in the living room immediately furrowed his brow. “What is happening here?”

Xiao Yichen and Lin Wan turned to face Lu Hao simultaneously. Lin Wan wanted to question him, but her concern for Xiao Yichen held her back.

Lu Hao was acquainted with Xu Yanxi and was aware of the past connection between Xiao Yichen and Xu Yanxi. Upon observing the situation, he quickly approached and stood next to Xiao Yichen, his gaze fixed intently on his back.

In a matter of seconds, Lu Hao’s stern glare shifted from Xiao Yichen to Xu Yanxi, who stood nearby, and he asked in a firm tone, “Is this your doing?”

Xu Yanxi, no longer startled, regained her composure and responded, “Yes, it was me. The person 1 wanted to hurt is Lin Wan, but…”

Xu Yanxi’s sentence was left hanging, her eyes filled with worry as she gazed at Xiao Yichen.

Upon hearing Xu Yanxi’s admission, Lu Hao decided to confront her.

Whether it was Wanwan or Yichen, he would make her pay double the price if she had harmed them.

However, just as Lu Hao’s fist was about to reach Xu Yanxi’s face, Xiao Yichen suddenly intervened.

“Lu Hao, stop!” Xiao Yichen called out to him, looking at Lu Hao.

Lu Hao was taken aback by Xiao Yichen’s words but complied.

Lin Wan, too, was surprised by Xiao Yichen’s intervention.

What is he doing? Is he protecting Xu Yanxi?

Instantly, Lin Wan’s heart grew cold once again. It seemed he still had strong feelings for Xu Yanxi.

“Don’t hurt her,” Xiao Yichen implored Lu Hao. He may not have loved Yanxi, but he couldn’t bear to see her harmed.

These words bewildered Lu Hao, and Lin Wan couldn’t help but chuckle inwardly.

So, he isn’t protecting me earlier but that woman.

“Xiao Yichen, you…” Lu Hao inquired with a perplexed expression.

Could it be that he still loved Xu Yanxi? But Wanwan is his wife.

Xiao Yichen understood Lu Hao’s uncertainty but chose not to respond. Instead, he asked, “Why are you here?”

In response to Xiao Yichen’s question, Lu Hao replied icily, “I’m here to find Wanwan.”

Lu Hao’s gaze then turned to Lin Wan.

Lin Wan was uncomfortable. Knowing that Xiao Yichen was injured, she gently withdrew from his embrace and attempted to approach Lu Hao.

However, as Lin Wan stepped forward, Xiao Yichen gripped her arm and told Lu Hao, “She’s with me. If you have no other business, you can leave.”

He didn’t want Wanwan to meet Lu Hao, especially not because he feared losing her.

“I have something to discuss with her,” Lu Hao admitted. He couldn’t sleep all night after seeing Wanwan yesterday, not knowing she was Yichen’s wife. He came to find her early this morning, wanting to have a conversation to learn about her life all these years and to express his feelings, even if she was Yichen’s wife.

Upon hearing Lu Hao’s words, Lin Wan spoke up before Xiao Yichen could say anything.

“Let go of me,” Lin Wan’s voice was gentle, her tone light, and her expression indifferent.

Xiao Yichen looked at her, but there was no emotion on her face.

“Yichen, you’re injured, and 1 don’t want to resist. Please let go of me,” Lin Wan continued, her voice still soft..
