“Yes?”

Li Hanchuan stopped and looked at the girl in his embrace, his hands wrapped around her slender waist. He hid his frustration and looked at her with concern. “Your face looks pale, are you feeling alright?”

“Do you regret getting together with me?”

This time, she wasn’t acting sad, she was truly devastated.

She didn’t know what went wrong. But his attitude towards her carried this tinge of coldness and dislike. This didn’t exist even when they weren’t together…

Could it be that even after they broke up, he was unable to forget Ye Banxia?

No, that couldn’t happen!

“Hanchuan, if you regret it… It’s not too late.”

Ye Youran held onto his hands, tears welling up in her eyes.

But deep down she was sneering. How could it not be too late? He was Ye Youran’s man, how could he leave a place in his heart for another woman? Especially when that other woman was her most hated Ye Banxia!

“Youran, stop overthinking.”

Li Hanchuan stroked her face, his expression pained and lined with emotions he could barely describe. “I let Banxia down, that’s why I still think of making it up to her. But my heart is with you, do you hear me?”

“Really?” Ye Youran bit her lip and looked up at his handsome features. Her eyes were opened wide, and she looked like she was about to cry at any moment.

“Of course.”

Li Hanchuan patted her on the back. His voice turned dry. “This weekend, I’ll bring you to meet my parents.”

Since it was bound to happen one day, delaying it wouldn’t make any difference.

As for Ye Banxia… he would definitely find her.

He would only have peace of mind and forget her after confirming that she was living well.

…

On Saturday, Banxia’s ankle had mostly recovered.

Mo Chenyan was at work and Aunt Li took half a day off to settle some matters. She was bored alone and it had been a long time since she had a walk. She really wanted to breathe some fresh air today.

However, she didn’t go too far. She only strolled around the mansion.

The scenery around the mansion was beautiful and lined with flowers and trees. There was a clean river nearby as well.

Banxia had seen it from afar before but never went there. Now that she was in the mood, she strolled towards it.

There was a wooden bridge built across the river. Banxia was surprised to find a fishing rod on it, but only a part of the fishing rod could be seen, the rest of it was either in the river or blocked by the bridge. No wonder she didn’t notice the fishing rod.

She walked subconsciously to the bridge. When she snapped back to her senses, she was already on the bridge.

She hated fishing when she was young. But Grandpa always brought her and Hanyan along on his fishing trips, saying that fishing could hone their patience and character. In the beginning, she found it boring. But she slowly accepted fishing and started to enjoy it. However, she seemed to have no flair for it, unlike Grandpa and Hanyan who always returned with many fishes.

Those days were so wonderful.

If only she had spent more time with Grandpa…

Banxia blinked and looked up at the gentle sun, the watery feeling in her eyes fading slowly.

She squatted down and was about to pick up the fishing rod. However, a deep voice boomed from afar.

“Ye Banxia, what are you doing there!”

Banxia was stunned and retracted her hands from the fishing rod. Feeling wronged and confused, she stood up. What was he so angry about?

She turned around and saw that he looked unusually angry. Banxia glanced at the river. Was he hiding something in the river that he didn’t want her to find? Did he have to be this angry?

Based on her impressions, he rarely flared up. Most of the time, he was emotionless and cold.

Some people were feared even though they didn’t get angry.

“Come up.”

He added in his deep voice as he moved quickly towards her, keeping his gaze on her. His tensed brows showed his worry.

Banxia pursed her lips and didn’t say anything. She started to go up.

Before she could move another step, his face changed. “Ye Banxia, don’t move!”

Banxia stopped in her tracks.

She frowned. “Do you want me to come up or not?” She got angry as well. She fixed her hair that was messed up by the wind. “If…” She stopped abruptly.

Banxia was shocked. “Mo Chenyan, why do I feel the bridge… shaking?”

His dark face turned even darker.

“This bridge was not professionally done and it’s ill-maintained.” He frowned and reached his arms out towards her. His back facing the light, his slender body looked even more majestic. “Walk carefully toward me.”

Banxia closed her eyes in fear.

Pausing for a moment, Mo Chenyan asked, “Do you know how to swim?”

He was prepared that she might just fall into the river…

“I don’t.”

Banxia had her heart in her throat as she moved carefully on the shaky bridge. Why didn’t it shake when she just stepped on it? If she knew there was something wrong with the bridge, she would never have set foot on it.

Right when she had this thought, the bridge creaked as if it was giving her a warning.

Banxia was terrified.

Mo Chenyan rushed to her instinctively. He no longer cared if the bridge would collapse if he added his weight on it—since it was going to collapse anyway.

Following this, different sounds could be heard.

“Crack” went the bridge, followed by a “splash” when both of them fell into the river.

Mo Chenyan held her tightly in his arms as they broke through the water surface.

He was under her, so Banxia did not feel the impact. However, she choked on the water, causing her face to turn red.

Her body was drenched when she was carried to the shore. Her hair wrapped loosely around her neck as water dripped down her collarbone. Her snow-white shirt was stuck to her skin, revealing her bra and sexy body.

It was supposed to look embarrassing, but it showed her pureness, so pure that one would want to dirty it…

He swallowed his saliva, his dark eyes squinting.

Banxia’s eyes widened as she felt his warm lips envelop hers…
