“Boohoo…” Lin Wan sobbed softly in Xiao Yichen’s embrace.

Lin Wan stopped crying until a long while later, leaving her in quiet repose within Xiao Yichen’s arms. Her body still quivered sporadically, and her gaze remained distant and vacant.

“Wan’er,” Xiao Yichen gently called her name, lowering his head. He whispered to the young woman cradled in his arms, “Close your eyes”.

As he spoke, Xiao Yichen reached over and gently shut Lin Wan’s eyes, placing his hand beside her ear.

His hand covered Lin Wan’s right ear while her left rested against her chest. This way, she could only hear a little voice.

Xiao Yichen then focused on the five burly men walking far away. He didn’t bother to look at the burly man on the ground.

“You Luan,” Xiao Yichen spoke with frigid tone.

“Yes,” You Luan replied without hesitation.

“Leave none of them alive,” Xiao Yichen commanded, his voice dripping with authority.

You Luan didn’t offer a response. When he saw the Boss turn away, he proceeded to carry out the order.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Five gunshots rang out one after another, and the five burly men standing nearby fell to the ground.

Xiao Yichen glanced at Lin Wan in his arms. Despite the gunfire, she only furrowed her brow. She must be extremely frightened at this point.

“Wan’er, it’s alright now. I’ll take you home,” Xiao Yichen reassured her tenderly. He then lifted her horizontally and headed toward the exit of the factory.

As they left the factory, Xiao Yichen paused momentarily. He turned to You Luan, who was nearby, and instructed, “Deal with that man’s entire family.”

Anyone who dared to harm his beloved woman would face the consequences.

“Yes,” You Luan acknowledged, well aware of the man the Boss referred to—the first to be shot.

It was a fate that befell those who dared to cross the Boss.

“There’s someone behind them,” Xiao Yichen added.

You Luan understood the Boss’s words and responded promptly, “Understood.

I’ll investigate once I’m done here.”

Xiao Yichen continued to carry Lin Wan toward his car.

Xiao Yichen settled Lin Wan in the bedroom at the Blue Bay Villa, seating her on the sofa. He spoke gently, “Stay here for a moment. I’ll prepare a bath for you.”

As he was about to rise and leave, Lin Wan clung tightly to his clothing, refusing to let him go.

She was afraid, genuinely terrified. The horrifying images of that sordid place still haunted her thoughts.

Xiao Yichen stopped and looked at Lin Wan. He couldn’t bear to pry her hand away, so he picked her up and carried her into the bathroom.

That night, Xiao Yichen assisted Lin Wan in bathing. Lin Wan remained by his side in a daze, allowing him to tend to her needs. Her eyes were fixed on him, her focus unwavering.

After their shower, the two of them lay in bed. Xiao Yichen held Lin Wan tightly in his embrace.

Lin Wan’s spirits had somewhat improved. The shower had left her feeling physically better, and some of her composure had returned. She lay quietly in his arms, her eyes fixed on Xiao Yichen’s face.

“All Chen…” Lin Wan suddenly called, raising her head from his chest.

“Yes, what is it?” Xiao Yichen responded quickly, concerned for her well-being.

“I didn’t go anywhere today. I only went to the office…” Lin Wan attempted to explain to Xiao Yichen, but his gentle interruption cut her off.

“I know,” Xiao Yichen said softly, locking eyes with her. His gaze held a profound emotion—a deep sense of love.

He couldn’t even protect and love her enough. How could he bear to blame her?

Upon hearing Xiao Yichen’s understanding, Lin Wan continued, “I didn’t know those people, and I didn’t…”

“Wan’er,” Xiao Yichen interjected, his voice soothing. “It’s all in the past.. Don’t dwell on it any longer, okay?”
