Chapter 326: Chapter 326: When I Asked Nothing
After a while, Dan Hanjie let go of her.

His clean, slender fingers gently touched her cheek. His magnetic voice, full of intrigue, murmured, “The verdict for Jin Lan has been given. You better be prepared.”

These recent days, the media had been flooded with reports, only that Dan Hanjie was deliberately keeping it from Qin Youxuan. He naturally had ways to prevent her from accessing the news.

“…”

Qin Youxuan, dazed from his kiss and barely able to stand, heard his voice and paused.

Caught unawares, she finally lifted her head and asked, “What did you say just now?”

“Nothing much, you’ll know once you come with me.”

Dan Hanjie held her small hand, leading the still dazed Qin Youxuan out of the CEO’s office.

“Dan Hanjie, why are you driving? Where’s Yao?”

Qin Youxuan was pushed into the passenger seat. Dan Hanjie fastened her seat belt before heading to the driver’s side. Looking around, she didn’t find Yao anywhere.

You are so concerned about my assistant. It’s hard for me to be satisfied with his work.” Dan Hanjie slid into the driver’s seat, his eyes narrowing seductively, exposing a dangerous light.

“Let’s pretend I asked nothing.”

She didn’t want to get Yao into trouble.

Qin Youxuan smacked her lips, gripping the seatbelt, waiting for him to start driving.

When the car stopped in front of the courthouse, Qin Youxuan seemed lost, her mind not yet fully present.

“What day is it today?”

“Monday, the day of Jin Lan’s trial.” Dan Hanjie didn’t take his eyes off the road, his gaze calm.

Across the street, it was bustling with people.

Countless media personnel, holding their cameras and microphones, were waiting for the final verdict.

Even the television stations were broadcasting it live.

“…Time flies, a week has passed so quickly.” Qin Youxuan murmured softly.

If it wasn’t for Dan Hanjie bringing her here unexpectedly, she would’ve forgotten that the truth she had been waiting for was about to surface.

Qin Youxuan’s hands were entwined across her chest, her petite face was devoid of color, tightly drawn.

“You’re not the one on trial, you don’t need to be nervous.”

Dan Hanjie glanced at her, restarted the car, and drove to the same side of the street as the courthouse.

He turned off the ignition, got out of the car.

“There are reporters everywhere, Dan Hanjie, where are you going?” Qin Youxuan paused in surprise, then undid her seatbelt to get out of the car.

She hurried to follow him.

After only a few steps, she realized she was overthinking.

Dan Hanjie was so cautious, how could he confront the media directly?

She hadn’t gone more than a hundred meters when she discovered another entrance to the courthouse.

Dan Hanjie was standing against the wall, his eyebrow raised, waiting for her.

“Aren’t you eager to see Jin Lan’s verdict? Come on in.” Dan Hanjie’s lips curled in nonchalance, his voice detached. It was none of his concern.

Indeed, this wasn’t his problem.

If it wasn’t for her, he wouldn’t have set foot in a place like this.

“Thank you,” Qin Youxuan stepped forward, speaking softly.

Before Dan Hanjie could react, she walked through the small door.

Someone was waiting inside.

Seeing them arrive, he promptly ushered them forward.

“Mr. Jie, Miss Qin, this way please. The trial has already started, but seats have been reserved for the two of you on the side…”

“…”

Dan Hanjie stepped forward, ready to say something, but noticing people were around, he held his tongue.

His deep eyes fixated solely on Qin Youxuan, who had thanked him.

His gaze was profound.

If she knew, what he brought her to witness was the declaration of Jin Lan’s innocence, she would possibly not express her gratitude…
