Chapter 355: Chapter 355: Is He Feeling Sorry for Her? (1)_1

...

Upon returning home, Han Jingnian directly took Xia Wan’an into the bathroom, turned on the tap and the sound of gushing water startled the kitten into jumping out of Xia Wan’an’s arms, shaking off the water droplets on its body, and scampering out of the bathroom.

Only after the water temperature was appropriate, did Han Jingnian set Xia Wan’an down on the floor, casually tossing the suit she was wrapped in into the bathtub, before taking up the shower head and spraying the water on her.

This scene was somewhat familiar to her. Only when Han Jingnian started to squeeze shower gel onto her body, making her tattered clothes fall off, did Xia Wan’an sluggishly recall the night in front of the MIX Bar when, because of Ai Jiang’s scheme, she was held by He Che. After Han Jingnian appeared and took her back home, he had acted in the same way... However, compared to his previously rude actions, as if he were washing a cabbage, his gentleness this time, whether it was in the flow of the water or helping her wash her hair, was terrifyingly gentle.

Xia Wan’an, who had kept her heart in her mouth all night, slowly lifted her head to glance at Han Jingnian. The man’s detached expression was unlike him, but his tightly pressed lips betrayed his displeasure. His handsome eyebrows were framed with tension and anger... as well as a hint of heartache.

Heartache... Was he heartbroken for her?

Xia Wan’an’s heart was set off by something like a violent storm, as if it had been fiercely struck by something.

Han Jingnian continued to bathe Xia Wan’an until she had been thoroughly bathed several times over, only then did he stop. After turning off the faucet, he took a bathrobe, wrapped it around her, and led her by the hand to the washstand, taking a hairdryer to help her dry her hair.

Once her hair was completely dry, Han Jingnian combed her long hair meticulously with a brush.

When he put back the comb, Han Jingnian spotted the hair oil next to him. Knowing that she would apply a couple of drops after washing her hair, he took the hair oil, dropped a couple of drops into his palm, warmed it by rubbing his hands together, and gently applied it to her hair.

"Do you want to go to the dressing room to change clothes?"

Han Jingnian used a question, apparently checking what Xia Wan’an thought.

Xia Wan’an, influenced by the look of heartache in Han Jingnian’s eyes, stood blankly in front of the washstand, unresponsive.

"What’s the matter?" Han Jingnian asked again, once done, he thought she was uncomfortable due to that man, so he bent a little to put himself at her eye level and asked, "Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

Xia Wan’an came back to reality, lightly shaking her head.

She remained silent, and the usually reticent Han Jingnian once again spoke, "Do you want me to accompany you to change your clothes?"

Xia Wan’an hastened to shake her head and then, without uttering a word, walked into the dressing room.

After dealing with his own wet clothes, Han Jingnian took a quick shower and then left the bathroom in a bathrobe.

Upon his return, Xia Wan’an had already changed her clothes and was applying skincare products at her dressing table, her actions noticeably slower than usual.

Was she frightened by that man?

Han Jingnian didn’t say anything to disturb her, but his grip on his cup of milk gradually tightened, he suddenly felt that he may have been too lenient with that man!

After Xia Wan’an was done, Han Jingnian handed her the hot milk in his hand "Drink some milk."

Xia Wan’an did not take it, but the look in her eyes as she gazed at Han Jingnian was filled with unease.
