Chapter 277: Chapter 277: I Just Want to Eat This
Just as he was hesitating over whether or not to sound the alarm, a stack of bills was tossed in front of him.

He widened his eyes and looked up.

The only thing he could make out was the towering figure of Dan Hanjie striding in the direction he pointed, disappearing in a blink of an eye.

Such speed…

Dan Hanjie quickly found Qin Youxuan, who was in a daze on a large lawn, following the direction given by the management.

Her clothes were intact, but her shoes were broken and all tossed aside on the roadside.

At this moment, sitting barefoot on the grass, she carried an unfettered innocence.

Her defiant cat-like eyes seemed listless, only intently staring at the fountain in front of her.

Dan Hanjie paused his steps and followed her gaze forward.

In the park’s square, a small musical fountain was spraying water, transparent water droplets dazzling under sunlight, falling into a large body of water with a swoosh.

The beauty attracted many people, quite a few of whom tossed coins into the fountain to make wishes.

The bottom of the fountain was covered with a thick layer of coins, the sheen of the coins coalescing with the lustrous water droplets, incredibly eye-catching.

Visitors nearby couldn’t help but laugh, those close deliberately avoiding the water spray, the children’s tender laughter echoed in the air, spreading a sense of harmony and joy…

Qin Youxuan stared intently at the scene in front of her, as if hoping to find something in the fountain.

Dan Hanjie glimpsed at the mother-and-child statue in the fountain, his gaze faltered and he suddenly realized that today was Jiang Yu’s memorial day, and he had let her run into Bai Wei at such a time…

No wonder she chose to hide alone.

Dan Hanjie clenched his fists, feeling a wave of heartache rising in his chest.

He didn’t rush to approach her, only stood at the closest distance to her, observing the bustling crowd with her.

He had no idea how much time had passed until the sunlight became incredibly slanted, casting a golden hue.

As Qin Youxuan numbly prepared to get up, a shadow fell over her.

She looked up, coming face to face with Dan Hanjie’s piercing black eyes, her small body trembling slightly.

“…”

Qin Youxuan instinctively wanted to speak, her lips moved slightly, but she didn’t know what to say.

Lowering her gaze, her eyes reddened.

“Have you been staring for so long that you’re now hungry?” Dan Hanjie squatted down and pulled her into his arms. Resting his chin on her head, he gently asked.

“…”

“I’ll take you to grab some food.” He picked her up and briskly strode toward the park exit.

Until they got into the car, Qin Youxuan hadn’t said a single word, just silently observing him.

She let Dan Hanjie fasten her seatbelt, then he returned to the driver’s seat and started the car.

“I want to eat ice cream,” Qin Youxuan suddenly spoke, her gaze falling on an ice cream shop on the side of the street.

The colorful ice cream cones were very attractive.

“You shouldn’t be eating anything cold right now.” Remembering her period hadn’t yet passed, Dan Hanjie’s voice cooled.

“But I only want this…”, her eyes half-closed, Qin Youxuan lowered her head in disappointment.

Dan Hanjie’s grip on the steering wheel tightened. Eventually, he parked the car at the side and helped her out of the car.

Qin Youxuan didn’t have her shoes on and didn’t struggle to walk on her own. She obediently let him carry her as she smelled the mature masculine aroma from his body, Bai Wei’s words flashed through her mind.

She said that they shared the same body scent.

Dan Hanjie liked this scent…

Shaking her head, Qin Youxuan dispelled these messy thoughts.

“What’s wrong?” Dan Hanjie watched her slightly silly action, raising an eyebrow.
