Chapter 1367: Bai Yaoyao’s Considerations
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Although Bai Yaoyao had made He Meichun and Chi Jiajia faint, He Meichun’s words had also been engraved into her head.
In fact, He Meichun was right. She was indeed a woman with an unknown background. Duan Yanhao was a soldier with a military family background, so his household wasn’t an ordinary one.
Would a family like that be able to accept someone like her?
It was clear that she was too simpleminded. In conclusion, the elders wouldn’t willingly take in someone like her.
She didn’t have a good background nor any skills. She was all alone and even had a bad past.
How could someone like her be suitable for Duan Yanhao?
Deep down, Bai Yaoyao felt demoralized and even looked down on herself.
She tried hard to not show how she truly felt, but the aura that she emitted was undeniable. No matter how strong she pretended to be, her emotions would still influence her aura, and others could easily tell how she felt.
As Duan Yanhao hugged Bai Yaoyao, he could sense that she was in a bad mood. He only knew that she was fragile but didn’t know what she was thinking.
He was dying to ask and find out what she was thinking, but at that moment, he could only embrace her silently and offer some comfort.
After a moment of hesitation, Bai Yaoyao took a deep breath. “I want to return to the military.”
“It’s vacation period now. Why are you returning?” Duan Yanhao would never allow her to return. He wanted to firmly secure her by his side all the time.
He was always afraid that Bai Yaoyao would disappear like a gust of wind.
Previously at the mall, he had lost Bai Yaoyao after a very short period, and she had even met the person from her past.
At that instant, he finally felt jealous and possessive. He didn’t want her to return to that person, nor for her to leave his sight.
Unconsciously, he had already developed feelings for her and gotten used to being together with her.
Bai Yaoyao smelled the unique scent emanating from Duan Yanhao’s body. It was crisp and refreshing, yet enticing. She could allow herself to be greedy back then, but it was different now. She couldn’t indulge in herself now.
Looking at Bai Yaoyao remaining silent, Duan Yanhao hugged her even tighter. “Don’t worry. I won’t let them disturb us. I’ve been checking up on the two of them for the past two days. If I find any leads to confirm my speculations, I’ll inform the Chi family.”
Bai Yaoyao nodded. She knew that Duan Yanhao had been investigating the two of them for her sake.
In order to not worry Duan Yanhao, Bai Yaoyao flashed a smile at him.
Despite seeing that smile, Duan Yanhao knew that Bai Yaoyao wasn’t happy. However, he wouldn’t force her to cheer up. He would settle everything himself to ease her distress.
After Duan Yanhao made up his mind, he ordered his guards to investigate the Chi family thoroughly. He must find some leads on them no matter what.
He wanted to stop the two of them from stirring up so much trouble.
As he got reminded of Chi Jiaojiao, Duan Yanhao still felt rather emotional. That woman was tough, and she wanted to be an outstanding soldier. She had even sacrificed herself to achieve her goals.
Since the two of them were engaged, he also felt responsible for her. If He Meichun and Chi Jiajia didn’t go overboard during the past few years, he wouldn’t have checked on them willingly.
As Duan Yanhao scrolled through his phone to check on He Meichun and Chi Jiajia, Old Master Duan suddenly called and requested for his return.
The grave expression on Duan Yanhao’s face was plain as day. It was clear that the Old Master had found out about Bai Yaoyao’s existence.
“Grandfather, I won’t be going back for the new year.”
“Rascal, have you grown so independent that you’re not even coming home for the new year?”
