Chapter 44
"Go back and tell your master that he dosen't have the ability to touch someone who is under my
protection!"
After saying that, Li Han kicked the man unconscious. Those two who were lively just now were
instantly dragged away like dead dogs.
Li Han strode towards Shu Tian, and Pei Yu followed after him. Pei Yu looked curiously at her. "Miss,
are you alright?"
After all, this was on his territory. Pei Yu was a little embarrassed as something like this happened on
his own territory.
Shu Tian showed her face and said in a low voice, "I'm okay."
After Pei Yu saw her clearly, his eyes lit up. The woman had very fair skin. He didn't know if it was the
cause of over-fright, her face was a little too pale. Her eyes took up one-third of her palm-sized face.
After crying, her nose turned red. Though she looked pitiful, that still couldn't harm her original
tenderness of beauty.
Obviously, she was beautiful and could also stand careful appreciation.
Pei Yu bumped into Li Han's shoulder and said in a voice that only they could hear, "Nice!"
Li Han wrapped her in his arms and blocked Pei Yu's sight. "Take care of them. We are leaving now."
Pei Yu did not continue to mess around with him and shouted at his back, "Do you need me to inform
Ling Junze and let him take a look?"
He didn't even look back, "No need."
...
After leaving Hongding Club, Shu Tian was carried to the car in Li Han's arms. Li Han helped her adjust
the seat and then looked up at her. He angrily stared at her with his dark eyes.
The distance between them was so close that Shu Tian could smell the faint scent of pine on his body.
It was unusually quiet in the car. A few minutes passed, neither of them spoke and the atmosphere
remained deadlocked.
Li Han looked at the little woman with her head hanging down in front of him, and the anger in his heart
could not be suppressed. He pinched her chin with his big hand and his voice lowered completely.
"Explain to me why you were here."
Shu Tian opened her mouth. Thinking of the matter with Tang Zechen and realizing her mistake, her
voice softened. "Tang Zechen sent me a message, saying he wanted to talk about the divorce..."
Li han sneered. "You have no brain?"
Shu Tian retorted in a low voice. "I didn't believe him until he said Jiang Mengyao was pregnant.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have come over."
Undoubtedly, Tang Zechen knew her well. All these years living together allowed him to find Shu Tian's
weakness, and the only thing he needed to do was to say the right thing. Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
The premise was that Shu Tian did not expect that he could even do such a thing.
"Since you come, you just believe that he won't do anything to you." Li Han ignored her and breathed
with anger. "What kind of place is Hongding?You jiust come because he asked. Do you really not know
or still have a fantasy?"
"I didn't!" Shu Tian's face was burning for his words. She could endure anything but other's
misunderstanding. Especially in this situation, it would only make her feel ashamed. "I thought he..."
"What did you think?" Li Han interrupted her mockingly, with his tone full of disdain. "You thought he'll
love you for the rest of his life, and how did that go?"
Li Han's words were undoubtedly sprinkling with another handful of salt on Shu Tian's wound that had
not yet healed.
The crack in Shu Tian's heart hurt even more than when she learned that Tang Zechen was plotting
against her.
She didn't expect anyone to understand her situation. She just wanted to not deepen her scar.
She thought Li Han could understand her position more or less, but reality slapped her in the face
again.
She looked away and breathed slightly. Her eyes were red, but she did not cry out. "Yes, I am blind and
I deserve it. I brought all this on myself, okay?"
Li Han didn't mean that. It's just seeing her in danger in Hongding, and he got worried about her and he
was only speaking without thinking in anger.
But he couldn't open his mouth to apologize.
Stalemate for a moment, looking at the tears that the woman was about to shed, Li Han finally gave in.
His big palm moved from her small chin to the back of her neck, and his thumb touched the delicate
skin with a soothing force. "I didn't say that you deserve it. I'll take care of Tang Zechen for you. Shu
Tian, you're an adult. You have to consider the consequences before you act. If I didn't happen to show
up today, what would you do?"
Shu Tian avoided his warm palm. "I did have a failed marriage. After giving everything to him, my ex-
husband still did this to me. It's normal for you to look down on me."
Seeing that she couldn't understand him, Li Han increased the force in his hand and brought her
forward a little. His dark eyes stared at her. "If I didn't want to care about you, I would have pushed you
away when you bumped into me in the elevator ."
If it weren't that he heared her voice, whether the person was alive or dead, he wouldn't have taken
another look.
But when he found out it was her, looking at her tear-stained face and feeling her trembling body, his
hard heart softened little by little.
He hadn't used force for years, but today he made an exception for her.
Only he could touch his things.
"Tell me in advance if you need anything in the future." The man said lightly.
Shu Tian's eyelashes fluttered a few times, and her stubborn voice was not devoid of grievance. "I told
you. I called you before I came, but you didn't answer."
Li Han frowned even tighter. He remembered that he had gone out to attend a municipal meeting today,
and his private phone had been kept on silent mode all the time. After the meeting, he arrived in
Hongding before he could check his phone.
He took out his phone and saw two missed calls and a text message sent by Shu Tian as expected.
It was as if his heart had been scratched which was a little painful and itchy. A strange feeling flashed
by. Guilt? Frustration? Or regret?
None of those felt right.
It was more of pity.
If he received the call, he would never let Shu Tian come alone, and nothing else would happen.
The man frowned. "This won't happen again."
Shu Tian raised her eyelids and looked at him, thinking that she had heard him wrong, but when she
met the man's serious eyes, she knew that she had heard right.
He was actually making...a promise to her?
Shu Tian became nervous and coughed unnaturally. "It's okay..."
"Are you still dizzy?"
"A little better."
Li Han nodded and helped her fasten her seat belt. He got into the main driver's seat and started the
car towards Imperial Garden. He held the steering wheel in one hand and put the other hand on the
window. His slender fingers touched his chin from time to time. His driving posture was casual and
sexy. The wind outside the window swept his hair and blew it a little messy...
Shu Tian's heart skipped a beat when she recalled how he pulled her into his arms in the club without
hesitation.
She forced herself not to look at him anymore and turned to look at the street view that was flashing
past the window. It was dark and a cold wind blew in through the car window seam, but Shu Tian felt
warm in the corner of her heart.
...
Forty minutes later, the car stopped in the front yard of Imperial Garden villa.
The girl in the passenger seat was already asleep. Li Han got out of the car and walked to the other
side. He opened the door and picked her up. He walked into the villa and walked all the way to the
second floor. He gently kicked the door of the master bedroom open and put her on the bed.
He took off her clothes, shoes, and covered her with a quilt. It was the first time for him to take care of
someone, after doing all those things, he was already sweating profusely.
