Chapter 266: Chapter 266: It Will Hurt a Bit

Yan Sijue’s hand tightened around the cup involuntarily.

"...Why?" After a long time, he finally heard his own voice.

"The woman you want to marry... is it Chen Yayan?" Mu Yiliang pondered her words, "I don’t think she’s a suitable choice... She won’t truly be good to Xiaoze. Since you’re insisting on fighting for custody of Xiaoze, you can’t just consider your preferences when choosing a marriage partner..."

"Is it just for this reason?" Yan Sijue let out a low laugh, his dark gaze fell upon her, inexplicably making Mu Yiliang feel a sharp pain.

"...I think I have the right to express my opinion." Suddenly, she didn’t dare to meet his eyes, and her voice trembled. She didn’t even know what she was saying, her mouth just opened and closed instinctively, "Or, can you prove that she can assume the role of stepmother... otherwise..."

Suddenly, a crisp "crack" interrupted her words!

Mu Yiliang stared blankly at the shattered glass on the floor, and... the blood gushing from the man’s hand!

Her pupils contracted sharply!

He actually... crushed the cup with his bare hand!

"You..." She couldn’t help but start trembling, and impulsively rushed over to hold his hand, "What are you doing?"

Yan Sijue’s voice was filled with an unspeakable hoarseness and blockage: "Are you concerned about me?"

"I remember there’s a first aid kit here..." Mu Yiliang directly ignored his words, "Sit tight, I’ll disinfect you right away!"

Yan Sijue watched her in a daze as she left, then after a moment, hurriedly came back with the first aid kit!

"Sit down quickly!" She pushed him onto the sofa without allowing any argument, opened the kit, and first used a cotton swab to pick out the glass shards from his wound.

Yan Sijue sat on the sofa, watching the woman crouching in front of him, carefully holding his hand and disinfecting it.

It seemed they hadn’t seen each other for some days.

She looked a bit thinner than last time, but her complexion was very good. Perhaps it was because of her reunion with her lover...

Yan Sijue closed his eyes for a moment, forcing himself to put that thought aside — he was afraid he couldn’t control the impulse to kill Ye Moran!

He had to admit, the reason he announced his engagement, besides implementing that plan, was to force this woman out.

He wanted to know, once she found out he was marrying another woman, would she have any objections, would she be anxious because of it!

Just as he expected, he released the news yesterday, and today she came to him, saying she had something to tell him — at that moment, he couldn’t help but hold onto a faint, indescribable, ridiculous expectation!

But it was all just for Xiaoze.

He should have thought of it earlier.

Yet why did he repeatedly hold onto unrealistic expectations, again and again exposing his heart just to let her hurt it.

He was a businessman, an extremely successful one at that, never having made a losing deal, but only with her, he lost completely, thoroughly, utterly cleaned out!

"It might hurt a bit... bear with it for a moment..." Mu Yiliang suddenly spoke, taking out the hydrogen peroxide.

"This little pain, do you think I would care about it?" He suddenly wanted to laugh for some reason.

Her concern and worry at this moment, what was it for? Just out of humanitarian instinct?

Mu Yiliang hesitated for a moment, unable to stop her eyes from welling up with mist.
