Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Zhao Youlin, on the other hand, had no idea how great the impact she had brought to Su Liqiang with her series of actions.
Zhao Youlin heaved a sigh of relief after she had confirmed that the guns had been taken away and would not pose a threat any longer. She then turned around and checked on Su He and Ye Yan’s situation.
Ye Yan did not suffer any severe injuries. He had been kidnapped while on the way to the company.
The person who had kidnapped him was highly-skilled. He had kidnapped Ye Yan and took him inside the car without leaving the slightest bit of trace. In addition, the individual allowed Ye Yan to take a nap before arriving at his destination.
At that moment, Ye Yan looked disheveled and unkempt. In fact, he had only injured his wrist. When he was kidnapped, he could not see the kidnapper’s face clearly and so he had struggled with force and rubbed against the rope. As a result, his outer layer of skin was injured.
Ye Yan finally calmed down when he realized that the people who had kidnapped him were Su He’s father and grandfather. He faced the duo’s sarcasm and taunts with calm and refused to give in to them even when the elders had threatened that he leave Su He.
Ye Yan was deeply disappointed when the elders raised the guns. That was his first time to understand how it felt like when his life was coming to an end.
Little did he know that at that moment, Ye Yan’s mind was consumed by the same voice that he had heard from a very young age. That voice drew nearer to him. In times of happiness, sadness, shyness, or fear, the person had already etched in the deepest part of his head. He had finally realized that the person was… that important to him.
The past flashed across his mind like a streetlight. Ye Yan had never thought that the moment the person’s image flashed across his mind, the next thing he knew, the same person had already lunged at him while screaming at the top of her lungs.
He could see the trace of trepidation and concern in the person’s eyes. He wished he could reach out and wipe away the tears that had welled up in her eyes. He wished he could wrap his arms around her. He could do anything for her. He did not want her to suffer any more. However, there was nothing that he could do.
The moment Su He fell on him, Ye Yan thought that he was dead. He could not imagine how he would end up being if he lost Su He. He did not want to, and also dared not imagine the consequences!
The antic.i.p.ated gunshot was not heard. Instead, unexpected voices rose, “Xiao He, Ye Yan, How are you?”
Su He and Ye Yan’s entire bodies shuddered. They inadvertently widened their eyes and looked at the people behind them in disbelief.
“Youlin, you…”
“Are you hurt?” Zhao Youlin creased her eyebrows. She ignored their shocking faces. All she cared about was the duo’s safety.
Ye Yan was the first to react to this. He quickly responded to her, “I’m fine. Xiao Qi, did you hurt yourself when you fell on me?”
Ye Yan’s first sentence was for Zhao Youlin while the latter was a question for Su He.
It was only then that Su He remembered that the reason Zhao Youlin’s appearance was because she had called them before this. She had sought their help. She had also done something outrageous in times of emergency a while ago.
“I… I am fine.”
As soon as the Su family learned that Su He had nearly miscarried due to a fall, they had covered a layer of thick rugs on the floor in order to ensure that Su He would not get hurt even if she accidentally fell down. Besides, Ye Yan had served as padding on the floor when she fell. As such, she was not injured.
Su He held her belly and wanted to get up from the floor. Zhao Youlin quickly helped her.
At the same time, Mu Tingfeng appeared from the other side and untied Ye Yan’s knot.
As soon as Ye Yan broke free from the restraints, he rapidly rose and pulled Su He into his arms. He was so concerned for her that he even forgot to thank Mu Tingfeng and completely ignored the rest. He mumbled in a trembling voice, “You truly scared me to death. You scared the h.e.l.l out of me.”
Su He was thrown into Ye Yan’s arms all of a sudden. In fact, she had been hugged so tightly, as if he had wanted to crush her so that he could unite with her and become one. Su He’s mind went blank. By the time she snapped out of her trance, she wanted to push him away. Just then, she heard Ye Yan’s complaints that were filled with lingering fear.
Her hands, which she intended to push him away, dangled in mid-air. The person hugging him was trembling slightly, as if literally telling her how fearful he was because of what she did just now.
Without knowing why, Su He felt as if her eyes had been stung. Her hands, which she initially wanted to pull him away from her, slowly crawled against Ye Yan’s back and carefully returned his hug.
Ye Yan was afraid of losing her. Likewise, she was also afraid of losing the man in front of her. The moment she saw her father and grandfather pointed at Ye Yan with their guns, even though her rationality warned her to stay away from this man, her heart reminded her that she still cared for him!
The duo, who had narrowly escaped from the danger, hugged each other as if to remind each other that they were still alive in this world and were still by each other’s side. However, the people who disapproved of the duo, who looked like they were flaunting their love in public, faked a cough to remind them of their presence.
When Ye Yan heard the sound, he snapped out of his daze. His expression looked troubled when he saw the person who made the sound. He quickly carried Su He and took a few steps backward. His eyes were filled with wariness.
Meanwhile, Su He looked at her father and grandfather with diffidence and concern. She was afraid that the two elders might kill Ye Yan if they found him displeasing in their sights.
When Su Liqiang saw her daughter in another man’s arms while staring at him fearfully and with her eyes filled with rejection, he almost fainted.
His face darkened and he was about to ask his daughter to go back to him. However, he was stopped by the former master of the family.
The former master stared at Ye Yan with clear, bright eyes. Ye Yan met his gaze fearlessly. His eyes were filled with determination and firmness.
The duo confronted each other for a long time. In the end, the former master was the one who looked away first. He then turned around and rested his gaze on Su He.
“Xiao Qi, are you sure… you want to be with this person?”
Su He’s entire body shuddered. Ye Yan’s heart clenched. He subconsciously clenched his hand which he had been holding tightly on Su He.
For a moment, the living hall became as silent as the grave. Everyone waited for Su He’s response.
After some time, Su He looked like she had made up her mind before she ground her molars and said quietly, “Grandpa, I’m sorry.”
“Xiao Qi, you…” Su Liqiang stared at his daughter, looking deeply disappointed.
Ye Yan, on the other hand, was overjoyed. He hugged Su He tightly in his arms once more, as if this was the only way to calm his agitated mood. “Thank you. Thank you. From now on, I won’t let you suffer any harm. I won’t let you down. I swear to G.o.d with all my life and my everything.”
Su He unusually obeyed Ye Yan and buried herself in his arms. As she listened to his repeated promises, the corners of her lips inexplicably curled upward.. She felt like she had been injected with a certain vitality potion and became more lively.
