“Qianyu, what happened? They were saying you, you were…” Xiao Qi choked before saying the last word, “molested??”

They had been dating for three years, and apart from the first kiss, he had never touched her again. He would at most kiss her forehead, hold her hands or waist. She was the purest and flawless angel in his heart. He treated and pampered her like a treasure. Now, she was defiled by other men. His heart felt as if it was burning.

“You only knew now?” Lan Qianyu glared at him coldly. She too, like Qiao Qing and Lei Lie, thought he had avoided her because of that incident.

“Who was that bastard?” Xiao Qi became agitated instantly. His face was red and he swung his fist and asked, “Where did he touch you? How, how did he touch you?”

Lan Qianyu lowered her gaze as the intense kisses and wanton actions of that night flashed through her mind. That bastard even placed the tip of his manhood in. However, she couldn’t make herself say that. Although she had always been a straightforward person and grew up amongst the boys, she was still very conservative when it came to things like that. She had been very prim and proper with Xiao Qi and wouldn’t allow him to touch her before marriage. Thus, not only was Xiao Qi agitated when something like that happened, she had also felt disgusted as if she had swallowed a fly.

“Speak, why are you not speaking?” Xiao Qi was anxious. He came over and pushed Lan Qianyu on her shoulders.

Lan Qianyu’s wound was pulled slightly and hurt a little. Her eyebrows furrowed together and she raised her gaze and looked at him coldly, “What do you want me to say? Are you going to toss me aside because I was touched by someone else? If you are, just say so. I won’t bother you.”

“I…” Xiao Qi was momentarily lost for words and didn’t know how to reply.

Lan Qianyu just looked at him like that. She didn’t know why she found him to be very unfamiliar even though they had not seen each other for only a few days. His once affectionate eyes now had so many secrets in them that he dared not look into her eyes. In fact, she had felt that since a few months ago. She had always been big-hearted so she was waiting for him to take the initiative to tell her, but he continued to have more secrets and the gap between them got wider.

The ambience was lonely and stiff.

Xiao Qi only recovered from the “molest” incident after a long while. He held on to Lan Qianyu’s hand and said gently, ” Qianyu, sorry. I didn’t protect you.”

“Where were you these few days? Why didn’t you call me?” Lan Qianyu’s tone began to soften.

“I…” Xiao Qi recalled the intense lovemaking scenes he had with Bai Lu on the bed. His gaze flickered and he quickly used the explanation he had prepared beforehand, “You also know that our company has had some problems lately and we could be facing bankruptcy. I have been busy finding sponsors to inject funds. Sorry, I should have stayed with you when you were injured.”

“Never mind.” Lan Qianyu changed the topic. “Are we still getting married?”

“Of course we are!” Xiao Qi replied hesitantly. “It was my dream to marry you. We cannot cancel the wedding. We will go and have our wedding two days later when you feel better.”

Lan Qianyu’s lips curled into a little smile. She had alway been a person that didn’t have much love and she would feel very satisfied even with just a little bit of love. She liked to hear Xiao Qi say these simple loving words because it made her feel very blissful.

Xiao Qi held Lan Qianyu’s face gently and said with guilt, “Qianyu, I am truly sorry that I didn’t take care of you in the hospital. From now on, I will be taking care of you here until you have fully recovered.
