Chapter 250 Nothing more
I Hate You, Devil!
Xiaolei was surprised that the one who stopped the man was actually Yun Jinhan. He was honestly the last person Xiaolei would even think to come and rescue her!
"Mr. Monreo," Yun Jinhanâs voice was a little cold as he gripped the manâs wrist.
"Back off Mr. Yun." The man violently pulled his hand from Yun Jinhanâs grip as he stepped back and glared at him. But Yun Jinhan was surprisingly firm.
"Iâm sorry but I canât let you bully my business partner." He said and Mr. Monreo snarled.
"Business partner, my ass!" He glared at Yun Jinhan again and smirked mockingly at Xiaolei before he finally left them.
Once the man was gone, Yun Jinhan worriedly looked at her.
"Are you alright?" he asked and Xiaolei immediately nodded.
"Iâm fine. Thank you."
"Sorry, I already noticed that heâs giving you trouble since he arrived in the hall. I shouldâve help you before it came to this."
Xiaolei shook her head. "No, itâs not your fault. And Iâm really okay."
"Thatâs a relief then... Shall we go back?" he smiled kindly at her and Xiaolei stared at her for a moment before she nodded.
"Mm."
As Xiaolei followed him, she couldnât help but feel a little guilty. Since they arrived in this place, Xiaolei had been ignoring Yun Jinhan. She was deliberately avoiding her so they didnât even talk to each other that much in the past five days that they were together. She was dealing with him like he was simply her new colleague and her way of talking to him was always formal even though he asked her to drop the formalities. Xiaolei did her best to set aside everything. She made a deal with herself that in this second life of hers Yun Jinhan was just her business partner and nothing more.
She had been wary of him and was cold towards him. She was sure he already noticed her indifference towards him and that was probably the reason why he wasnât approaching her during their breaks anymore. But this man actually came and saved her. She really didnât know what would have happened by now if she called Juu or if she actually punched that asshole. It would be such a real trouble if Yun Jinhan didnât come. Somehow, Xiaolei felt a little guilty for being cold towards Yun Jinhan these entire five days.
Yes, this man was the one she married and the one who killed her in her previous life. But this time, he was innocent. He didnât have anything to do with the Yun Jinhan in her previous life. Their lives now were completely different. This man didnât even know anything. Besides, if this man didnât decide to kill her that night... and she didnât return back in time...
Xiaolei shook her head to clear her mind. She thought that she must forget about her past now, including her fear towards Yun Jinhan. It was never easy but Xiaolei canât let the past control her anymore. She had Yu Chen now and the rest of the people she loved.
This current Yun Jinhan wasnât that vengeful man in her past. She thought that there was no reason for her to be wary of him and fear him anymore.
When they returned to the dining hall, Mr. Monreo wasnât there anymore. Xiaolei was extremely relieved. They both then sit alongside Mr. Ville and talked about random things as they dine.
Xiaoleiâs treatment towards Yun Jinhan also changed a little.
Mr. Ville was such a talker and he actually made Xiaolei drink more alcohol. Xiaolei always knew her limit. She didnât want to get drunk in any occasion like this. In fact, she only drink past her limit if sheâs with her virtual sisters, Davi and Hinari. However, at that moment, Xiaolei failed to consider the fact that the alcohol in this country was different and actually far stronger than the brand she was used with.
She was so caught off guard that before she knew it, she was already drunk.
Yun Jinhan ended up supporting her as they leave the dining hall when the dinner party was finally over.
Juu who was waiting outside saw Xiaolei being supported by Yun Jinhan and he immediately furrowed. He quickly strode towards them to get Xiaolei away from Yun Jinhan. However, Yun Jinhan didnât hand her to him.
"Itâs alright. Iâll help her." he said and Juuâs face darkened. He wanted to pull her away from this Yun Jinhan but he was reminded with Xiaoleiâs stern instruction. That he would restrain himself and donât cause any trouble. That he would only intervene if her safety was at stake.
This Yun Jinhan was just supporting her, he wasnât trying to hurt her, Juu could see that. But he couldnât help but glare at the man as he followed them closely from behind. Juu didnât like this man the first time he saw him. Truth was, he didnât like any other man touching her, of course, except Yu Chen.
He was like Xiaoleiâs displeased pet tailing them closely looking like he was more than ready to mercilessly attack Yun Jinhan once he tried to do anything bad to her.
By the time they were at the entrance of the building, Xiaolei was still being supported by Yun Jinhan as they waited for the car Juu had called when a lowkey black car stopped before them.
Juu was about to approach the car to open the door so Yun Jinhan could help her inside when he suddenly halted in place. He realized it wasnât the car they were waiting for.
The car door then opened and a dazzling man stepped out. He was wearing a whole suit of steel grey and he was absolutely handsome. Juuâs eyes widened the moment he saw him.
The gorgeous man then turned to look at him, however, the moment his eyes fell towards Luo Xiaolei and saw the man supporting her, his dark eyes constricted and his aura blazed into something horrifyingly devastating.
