Flash Marriage: The Billionaire Addicted to Her-Chapter 635

Qin Jinchuan observed the change in her eyes, his gaze growing more serious. "So, stop pining for him. It’s impossible between you two."

"If there’s even the slightest change to the wedding now, the Xiao Family will undoubtedly hunt you down. Then, you won’t be as lucky as you were in Upper City."

That simple sentence made Ye Yuning fully realize what truly stood between her and Xiao Linye. The so-called insurmountable gulf was nothing more than this.

"I’m not pining for him. I just want you to mind your own business. Why are you reacting so strongly?"

"You’re terrified Xiao Linye will find out we’re together, aren’t you?"

Qin Jinchuan mercilessly exposed her thoughts. His cold eyes were sharp and relentlessly probing.

Ye Yuning closed her eyes and took a deep breath. "No, Qin Jinchuan, don’t you understand? There’s absolutely no relationship between us and him."

"What do you mean?" No relationship with Xiao Linye? Then what were all her repeated warnings about?

Ye Yuning said, "Even without him, there shouldn’t be this... this *thing* between us."

"Shut up!" Qin Jinchuan cut her off harshly before she could finish. Clearly, he didn’t want to hear it.

Ye Yuning pressed on, "The fundamental conflict between us has nothing to do with Xiao Linye, do you understand?"

Qin Jinchuan didn’t want her to say it, but Ye Yuning insisted. The conflict she spoke of was inherent to their own relationship; it truly shouldn’t involve anyone else.

Qin Jinchuan looked at her. He turned her words, ’fundamental conflict,’ over and over in his mind. Yes, they had their own conflicts.

Back in Upper City, the Ye Family had nearly married her off to a fool. Unaware of the plot, she had struck back fiercely.

Afterward, he had ripped off his disguise and taken control of the Qin Family. A long battle of wills had begun between them, during which he had consistently suppressed her, even to the point where she had no place to call her own in Upper City.

Back then, he had genuinely wanted to teach this arrogant and audacious woman a lesson... But now, he regretted it.

"I apologize."

Ye Yuning was speechless. "..."

"I was wrong. I’m sorry!"

The corners of Ye Yuning’s mouth twitched. Looking at Qin Jinchuan, she found herself somewhat lost for words. She increasingly felt that his way of thinking was far from normal.

Qin Jinchuan continued, "I did dislike you quite a bit before, but you have to admit, you really are infuriating."

"No, Qin Jinchuan, you..."

"The child in your womb—I’ll raise it for you. How about that?"

Ye Yuning was stunned into silence. "..."

The air instantly grew still.

In that moment, Qin Jinchuan tore away the thin veil that had always hung between them, displaying his intentions to Ye Yuning in the most forceful manner possible.

Ye Yuning was no fool. Now that Qin Jinchuan had spoken so plainly, she naturally understood. But...

"Qin Jinchuan, do you have any idea what you’re saying?" Raise her child? Her child was Xiao Linye’s! The same Xiao Linye who was unwilling to even acknowledge the child. Xiao Linye was unwilling to raise it, yet here was Qin Jinchuan, insisting he would? Besides, what was the relationship between him and Xiao Linye anyway?

"You and he go back so many years. Don’t say such things anymore. Please, just leave." Without waiting for Qin Jinchuan to reply, Ye Yuning spoke again, her tone unprecedentedly firm.

With that, Ye Yuning turned and walked towards the dining room, wanting to be alone. However, she had barely taken two steps when she heard Qin Jinchuan say from behind her, "He already knows."

Ye Yuning whirled around. "What did you say?"

"I said, he already knows."

Ye Yuning exclaimed, "You’re insane!"

"You don’t need to feel any burden, and certainly don’t feel guilty towards him. You got nothing from being with him except a marriage certificate."

Ye Yuning fell silent. "..."

A marriage certificate, and nothing more? Yes, that was true. But she didn’t care for it anyway...

"It’s not guilt, I just..."

"Don’t tell me you have no feelings for me. It’s enough that I have feelings for you."

In this moment, every word from Qin Jinchuan was utterly uncompromising. The unspoken barrier between them was completely shattered. Ye Yuning’s world had been thrown into chaos.

She thought Qin Jinchuan had gone mad; he must have. Or had he been simple-minded for so many years, never experiencing romantic love, that he couldn’t distinguish his feelings?

"Think about it carefully." With that, Qin Jinchuan turned to leave, clearly intending to give Ye Yuning space to herself.

Ye Yuning stood rooted to the spot, a chill seeping through her. As Qin Jinchuan reached the doorway, he suddenly paused. "Don’t even think about moving out. Wherever you go, I’ll follow."

Ye Yuning was speechless once more. "..."

The fledgling idea of escape that had just sparked within her was instantly extinguished by his words.

And now, Qin Jinchuan seemed utterly uninhibited. Could it be true that Xiao Linye really knew? And he hadn’t objected? Yes, that must be it... If Xiao Linye had shown even the slightest disapproval, Qin Jinchuan would never dare to be so audacious. After all, he and Xiao Linye went back such a long way. Yet, despite knowing Qin Jinchuan was with her, Xiao Linye had made no move, sent no word. So, what did she truly mean to him in the end?
