Chapter 279: Chapter 279: A Strange Feeling

"Brother..." Mu Yiliang said in a mournful voice.

"You are not allowed to think about these things now!" Qiao Yebai suddenly stood up, the whole person seemed to be in a very gloomy mood, "I told you, you’re not allowed to think about him anymore!"

As he spoke, he even violently smashed a cup!

Mu Yiliang was startled! She stared at him with wide eyes!

Even if he was angry at her for lacking ambition, even if he was angry at her for not taking care of her own body, there shouldn’t be such a big reaction, right?

When Qiao Yebai saw her shocked yet puzzled gaze, he choked!

No matter how oblivious he was, at this moment he realized just how off he had been about her issues!

Why was he so concerned about everything related to her, so angry at the fact she loved another man? All he needed was her trust, and the opportunities that the fact she was the woman Yan Sijue valued might bring.

He only needed to consider what tricks he could play to achieve his goal, rather than... getting so angry at the fact she deeply loved Yan Sijue.

He needed to calm down... Maybe, these days he shouldn’t meet with her so frequently...

With this thought, Qiao Yebai took a deep gulp of ice water to calm down, then solemnly reminded her, "In any case, let’s talk about all this after you’ve recovered!"

Having said that, he turned around and left in large strides!

Mu Yiliang stared blankly at his back, unable to react for a long time...

Qiao Yebai cared so much about her, she should have been very touched.

But why did she feel a peculiar sensation deep in her heart?

********

Half a month later, at the Yan Family Mansion.

Since Yan Sijue was attacked last time, this was his first time attending the Yan Family’s regular family banquet.

Different from before, this time he brought Chen Yayan with him, not Xiaoze.

"Grandfather, this is Yayan." He first brought Chen Yayan to Old Sir Yan, "At the beginning of next month, I will get engaged to her."

The elaborately dressed Chen Yayan shyly bowed her head, "Hello, Grandfather."

Old Sir Yan scrutinized her with a critical eye for a while without making any remarks, then looked at Yan Sijue, "Why would you marry her?"

Yan Sijue smiled faintly, "Grandfather, you heard about what happened to me last time, right? I was lucky to survive, thanks to Yayan. If it wasn’t for her taking that bullet for me, I might already be dead."

He spoke lightly about what happened that day.

Old Sir Yan’s eyes flashed, he gave Yan Sijue a scrutinizing look, but did not see any other meaning in his eyes.

His mind finally settled.

"Very well. If that’s the case, then this girl is truly your lucky star." Old Sir Yan squinted at Chen Yayan again, "You must treat her well."

Yan Sijue smiled, "Of course." After saying that, he gestured for Chen Yayan to rest on the side and then continued talking to Old Sir Yan, "However, Grandfather, don’t you think someone should give me an explanation for what happened last time?"

Old Sir Yan raised his eyebrows, "Oh? What do you mean?"

"Grandfather, I’ve investigated Old Chen, the driver’s background," Yan Sijue said, closely watching Old Sir Yan’s eyes, "He has a son who suddenly disappeared some time ago, and the person who went after his son seems to be... someone under Uncle!"

"You can’t make baseless accusations without evidence!" Old Sir Yan’s face changed abruptly, "Your uncle may not be particularly capable, but he has always been honest and diligent. If you don’t have evidence, the one I will punish is you!"
