Chapter 876: Chapter 874 Innocence (2)

"To prove my innocence, I’m afraid my wife will come home later and be upset when she sees traces of another woman having lived here."

Xia Wan’an, who had just managed to compose herself, once again found her mind going blank.

To prove my innocence, I’m afraid my wife will come home later and be upset when she sees traces of another woman having lived here...

My wife... This was the first time she had heard him refer to "Xia Wan’an" as "my wife" from his own mouth.

The fingertips holding her phone trembled slightly.

For some reason, she suddenly remembered that night in the hospital, when he had a fever and begged for a hug like a child wanting candy, saying, "An’an, I’ve been drifting for so long, when will you come back... and bring my home with you..."

Xia Wan’an could distinctly feel her heart sour and soften in an instant.

Certain emotions within her chest were raring to burst forth, as if they might break through her throat at any moment.

After he had uttered that sentence, Han Jingnian’s gaze remained fixed on Xia Wan’an. He could clearly see the struggle and hesitation on the girl’s face, but ultimately she just moved her lips and said nothing.

For a moment, he thought the girl might blurt out who she was.

It seemed he was being fanciful... Why wouldn’t she reveal herself to him? Had he upset her?

To say he was not sad or not disappointed would be a lie, yet Han Jingnian hid his emotions flawlessly, as if he had seen nothing, and spoke again with his usual light tone, "Miss Xia?"

Xia Wan’an, who heard his voice, realized her lapse and quickly suppressed the emotions that Han Jingnian had stirred in her, then lifted her head and smiled at Han Jingnian, "I’ll be troubling Mr. Han for the upcoming period, then."

Han Jingnian quietly stared into Xia Wan’an’s eyes for a moment before responding, "It’s no trouble."

As his words settled, his hand had already taken Xia Wan’an’s luggage, heading out the hotel door first.

Xia Wan’an hurried after him.

Reaching the car, Han Jingnian first opened the passenger door, waited for Xia Wan’an to get in, and then dragged the luggage to the trunk.

After placing the luggage, Han Jingnian raised his hand to close the trunk and glanced through the rearview mirror at Xia Wan’an seated in the passenger seat. The strength in his fingertips tensed slightly before quickly withdrawing his gaze and shutting the trunk, walking towards the driver’s seat.

She was unwilling to be honest with him about who she was, and he would not force her, nor would he let her know that he already knew who she was... because he really didn’t have the courage to face losing her a second time.

So let her be as she wished, as long as he could see her, that was enough.

...

Ai Jiang really wanted to lie in the hospital forever and never recover. Because only then would she be safe.

But as the days passed, she had to be discharged from the hospital, even if she was reluctant.

On the day of her discharge, she armed herself very thoroughly, thinking she could escape Chi Yao’s men this way. However, not long after leaving the hospital, she noticed someone was following her.

She headed towards crowded places, trying her best to shake off the person tailing her, but after that car accident, her left leg was destroyed. With her limited mobility, she couldn’t shake off Chi Yao’s eyes and ears and was eventually forcefully taken into a car in a less crowded place.
