Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Yue Chi knew very well why Yue Xi was busy. Gong Han, who was at the side, only frowned slightly and said worriedly, “Father can’t do this. I’ll get Auntie to make some tonic soup and send it over later. He’s getting on age and has to take good care of his body.”

Yue Han did not respond to Gong Han’s words. He only said calmly and emotionlessly, “Let’s eat first.”

At this moment, both Yue Chi and Gong Han could feel that Yue Han seemed to be in a bad mood.

The dining table was much quieter than before after all.

In the evening, Gong Han brought the fruits to Yue Han’s study and asked worriedly, “I saw that you were in a bad mood when we were having dinner just now. Did something happen?”

Yue Han raised his cold eyes, which were sharp and murderous. Gong Han subconsciously took a step back, her expression filled with fear and trepidation.

“…What’s wrong?” Gong Han asked carefully.

Yue Han only narrowed his eyes slightly. “Ah Han, have you ever thought that if that accident did not happen back then, you would have followed Ah Chi and address me as big brother now?” He asked softly as he approached Gong Han.

Gong Han widened her eyes and looked at Yue Han in surprise. She asked in disbelief, “Yue Han, do you know what you’re talking about?”

“How can you not know what I’m asking with your intelligence?” Yue Han sneered.

Gong Han took a deep breath, and her eyes were filled with shame and anger. “Yue Han, I don’t know what’s wrong with you today, but I have my moral bottom line. You can’t trample on my character like this.”

Yue Han approached Gong Han, his aggressive aura enveloping Gong Han tightly. He raised Gong Han’s face that was flushed red with anger. “Then you’d better guard your moral bottom line. I’ll let you know what regret is if I find out that you seduced my brother.”

Gong Han’s eyes were red as she said word by word, “I didn’t!”

Yue Han was a little satisfied. He gently rubbed Gong Han’s lower lip with his thumb and chuckled. “It’s best if you don’t. Gong Han, remember this. I, Yue Han, can’t tolerate sand in my eyes nor any betrayal. I’ll definitely make you die an ugly death if you dare to do anything to let me down.”

Gong Han angrily slapped away Yue Han’s hand that was holding her chin. Her eyes were filled with hurt and anger from being suspected. “Yue Han, I married you with sincerity, but you actually treat me like this and humiliate me like this.”

The determination and hatred in Gong Han’s eyes made Yue Han feel a little guilty. A smile immediately appeared on his face, as if he was admitting his mistake. “I didn’t consider it carefully this time. Don’t be angry, okay?”

After saying that, Yue Han reached out to grab Gong Han, but Gong Han suddenly retreated, causing Yue Han’s hand to miss.

Yue Han’s expression instantly darkened. “Gong Han, that’s enough. I’ve already lowered my pride to coax you. Don’t push your luck.”

“You’re pushing your luck?” A hurt expression flashed across Gong Han’s face. “You suspect me of having an affair with your brother for no reason, and now you’re casually saying that you did not consider enough. Do you want to let it go just like that?”

Yue Han retracted his hand impatiently and asked coldly, “Then what else do you want?”

“I thought that you and I would be husband and wife, understanding and trusting each other. I didn’t expect that I would be such an unbearable person in your heart.” Gong Han smiled bitterly, and tears fell from her red eyes.

Yue Han, who rarely saw women cry, panicked a little and subconsciously explained, “I didn’t mean that. I just…”

Yue Han could no longer quibble.

“Yue Han, let’s calm down for a while. I’ll go back to my home for the next few days.” Gong Han sneered and turned to leave.

Yue Han quickly pulled Gong Han back. Even though he was flustered for a moment, it could not stop Yue Han from expressing his dissatisfaction with Gong Han for daring to speak up first.

“Gong Han, you better know what you’re talking about. You can’t leave just because you want to since you’ve entered my Yue family.” Yue Han’s tone was domineering.

“Yue Han, what do you mean? I married you but I wasn’t sold to you. What right do you have to stop me from leaving?” Gong Han, who had always been docile, was also a little angry and cold.

Yue Han’s eyes darkened. Back then, his mother was the same. She left just like that. She lived in that dilapidated nunnery and was unwilling to return for more than a decade.

“I’ve already said that it’s not allowed. You’d better not challenge my patience.” Yue Han’s attitude was also very unyielding.
