She pushed his hand away as if she had been scalded and said hoarsely, “Don’t touch me!”
Qiao Yanze’s hand froze in midair.
He pursed his lips, and his handsome face seemed to be covered with a thick layer of gloominess. This made him emit a bone-chilling sharpness, but his eyes were so deep and dark, as if endless regret and regret had fallen into them.
That was right. He regretted it.
If he had known the truth would be so unbearable, he would not have forced her like this. It turned out that what she had said to him back then was all true—his self-righteousness and so-called affection had given her pain and unbearable misery.
Li Yinian placed her head on the door, her body still trembling. She knew that the man was behind her. His aura was as domineering and strong as ever. It was difficult for her to ignore it.
At this moment, the door was suddenly opened from the inside.
Caught off guard, Li Yinian fell forward.
Seeing this, the man behind her could not help but reach out to hold her waist again and hold her tightly in his arms.
“Qiao Yanze!” The woman struggled violently, as if all the hairs on her body were standing on end.
“Yinian!” Qin Hongyu, who had opened the door, was also shocked. When he saw Li Yinian reaching out to him, he subconsciously reached out to hold her hand.
Qiao Yanze’s pupils constricted. Feeling the woman’s extreme resistance and fear, he finally relaxed his grip.
Li Yinian couldn’t wait to throw herself into Qin Hongyu’s arms.
Qin Hongyu was stunned when she suddenly hugged him. Although he had been very close to Li Yinian recently, and it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that they spent every day together, they had never done anything intimate between them. He had never even touched her hand, let alone hugged her, so now that he was being hugged by the woman’s warm and trembling body, his muscles were stiff and he couldn’t react at all.
Qiao Yanze looked at the two of them hugging each other and the darkness on his face intensified. That cold and sharp aura seemed to have substance, making one feel as if their skin had been cut open.
That was how Qin Hongyu felt.
However, this illusion made him snap back to reality. The trembling body in his arms also gave him endless courage. He tightened his arms and patted the woman’s back comfortingly. He said in a low voice, “It’s alright. I’m here.”
With that, he looked up at the man standing at the door and said coldly, “Mr. Qiao, you should leave.”
Qiao Yanze didn’t move. He was still standing there, but his gaze was on Li Yinian.
That intense and deep pain almost made Qin Hongyu, who was his love rival, feel bitter and sympathetic.
Qin Hongyu suddenly realized that Qiao Yanze probably really loved the woman in his arms. Otherwise, why would he look at her like that?
However, no matter how affectionate Qiao Yanze was, it was meaningless. The important thing was that Li Yinian didn’t want to see him.
Thinking of this, he said again, “Mr. Qiao, if you don’t leave, I’ll call the police.”
Qiao Yanze laughed hoarsely. After two seconds, he finally said, “Take good care of her.”
“I will do it even without you telling me,” Qin Hongyu frowned and replied.
This time, Qiao Yanze didn’t say anything else. He took one last glance at Li Yinian, looked away, and turned to leave.
