Chapter 449: Chapter 449 Revenge Returns 3

Ye Ning’s expression was intensely rigid, with a strong sense of tension in her eyes, as if he was no longer the man she trusted and respected, but had become something akin to a dangerous element.

Lin Yebai saw this and tugged at the corner of his mouth, a hint of self-mockery finally flashing across his eyes and brows!

"I’ve come to return some of your identity documents to you and took the opportunity to pick up Xiaobao as well," he said, handing over the child he was leading by the hand, and at the same time, a kraft envelope.

Ye Ning was momentarily stunned!

Her identity documents?

"Your ID card and passport are no longer valid in Japan, and you can’t be exposed right now, so there’s no way to get them reissued. All that’s left are your records from the orphanage and the adoption certificate from the Ou Family. I’m returning everything to you now; you need to keep them safe."

He passed the envelope to her with a very calm expression.

Ye Ning stared at him for a while before reaching out to take the envelope.

That’s right, ever since he had covertly rescued her five years ago, all her documents, including her identification, had been in his keeping. He said she was an escapee; if someone discovered her true identity, it would be a death sentence for her.

So, he had been safeguarding these items for her all along.

But now, he was actually returning them to her?

She looked at the kraft envelope in her hands, and the wariness that filled her eyes finally began to dissipate slowly, "Brother Lin, you actually didn’t have to return these to me."

"No, since you’ve decided to leave, it’s only natural that I return these things to you. Just be careful. These documents are temporarily not to be exposed. If someone finds out, it could cause trouble."

He spoke indifferently, his gaze not on her, but fixed on some point in the distance.

Ye Ning, upon hearing this, finally put the kraft envelope away.

He had surprised her today; she had thought that after she had refused him in front of so many people at the Qiao Family home and left with that man, he would turn hostile and intensify his efforts to capture her and confine her to his side once more.

But unexpectedly, he had chosen to let her go and even personally delivered her belongings to her.

Ye Ning’s eyes softened, especially when recalling the incident at the Qiao Family home that night, a tinge of guilt arose in her heart, "Brother Lin, about that night, I..."

"Does he treat you well?"

"Huh?"

"I mean, Ou Mucen, has he treated you well? Has he forgiven you for what happened in Japan?" He seemed to be talking to himself as he stood there and asked this question.

Ye Ning’s face immediately flushed with embarrassment, "He... he stopped asking about those things later on."

"Is that so? Then he must have forgiven you. He’s a smart man; he should already know you had nothing to do with that incident, just that he felt used and was uncomfortable about it."

"..."

For a long, long time, Ye Ning just stood there, not knowing how to respond to him.

These words didn’t sound like the Lin Yebai she knew. Whenever the former Lin Yebai mentioned Ou Mucen, his tone and voice would become sharp, and his words would always subtly convey his displeasure towards him.

But now, he spoke as if he was defending Ou Mucen, explaining to her the real reason a man might not forgive her.

Why was he doing this?
