Flash Marriage: The Billionaire Addicted to Her-Chapter 696

Xiao Linye’s words made Ye Yuning’s breath hitch violently!

Did he want to personally take charge of everything concerning her? So, what was this supposed to be? Compensation? Yes, everything Xiao Linye was doing now might be an attempt to compensate.

Ye Yuning took a deep breath. "I don’t need your compensation!" She spoke these words with depth and firmness.

However, Xiao Linye heard a tinge of heartache in her words...

She said she didn’t need compensation? Or was it that she was unwilling to give him the chance to compensate!?

Xiao Linye didn’t know that what Ye Yuning always despised the most was compensation offered after inflicting harm. When Jiang Bo had hurt Tang Xi, she had thought that man didn’t deserve forgiveness. No matter how much Jiang Bo regretted it later or what kind of compensation he offered Tang Xi, he was unworthy.

What kind of pain had she endured recently from Xiao Linye? To this day, Ye Yuning didn’t want to recall that period at all. Xiao Linye was the only man she had ever fallen for, the man with whom she wanted to build a life—she had even thought about having his children. But what was Xiao Linye’s final response to her? Now, Ye Yuning dared not think back on those memories. They were just too terrifying...

Xiao Linye’s breathing grew ragged. "Ning’er." He moved his lips, wanting to say something, but found himself unable to utter a single word.

She said she didn’t want compensation!

Ye Yuning said, "I don’t want your compensation." Word by word, Ye Yuning repeated.

Xiao Linye said, "It doesn’t matter if you don’t want it, but I have to give it."

She doesn’t want it? Ye Yuning’s refusal was within his expectations. But whether she wanted it or not, he was determined to give it.

Ye Yuning remained silent.

He was determined to give? Meaning, regardless of whether I accepted it or not, he was going to force it on me—is that it?

"Get dressed first." After saying that, Xiao Linye directly pulled her out from under the covers and methodically began to dress her.

Ye Yuning struggled.

However, Xiao Linye didn’t loosen his grip at all. He first removed her patient gown and then helped her with her underwear.

"Let go of me," Ye Yuning demanded angrily.

Xiao Linye said softly, "Hush, don’t struggle right now, okay? You might catch a cold." Even though the heating was ample, Ye Yuning was in poor health, and Xiao Linye worried about her.

Ye Yuning’s breath grew heavy. "Let go of me! Let go!"

"Ningning, please be still," Xiao Linye whispered soothingly into her ear. He knew she would refuse, but when she truly resisted him, Xiao Linye felt a suffocating pain in his chest. He wanted to be on good terms with Ye Yuning; he wanted to return to how things were before.

Ye Yuning was furious. She slapped Xiao Linye across the face.

The air went silent. But the silence lasted only a moment before Xiao Linye resumed what he was doing.

He was only heard saying, "If this makes you feel better, then hit me."

Ye Yuning’s breath deepened. Hit him? Was this something that could be resolved with a beating? Had he oversimplified things?

Before long, Xiao Linye had finished dressing Ye Yuning and led her out of the lounge.

When Qin Jinchuan saw the red handprint on Xiao Linye’s face, the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily. Kang Xuan saw it too. But with just a glance, he lowered his head, acting as if he had seen nothing at all.

As they disembarked the plane, Ye Yuning was neatly dressed, but Xiao Linye still carried her in his arms.

Upper City was different from Turanxi. Here in Upper City, where Ye Yuning had lived for so many years, many people would recognize her. The affair between her and Xiao Linye had caused a huge public stir. Moreover, Xiao Linye was still publicly known as Qi Mulan’s soon-to-be husband. What would people think if they were seen like this? Although Xiao Linye had clearly stated he wouldn’t marry Qi Mulan. But a man’s words... Clearly, Ye Yuning wouldn’t easily believe anything Xiao Linye said now.

"Don’t move," Xiao Linye spoke in a low voice, seeing her struggling frantically in his arms.

Ye Yuning exclaimed, "Xiao Linye, I told you to put me down! Put me down!"

But no matter what she said or how she struggled, Xiao Linye didn’t loosen his grip in the slightest. Now that she was in his arms, it felt as if he were holding the entire world. How could he possibly let go so easily? No one knew the torment he had endured recently, believing the child in her womb wasn’t his. The days without her by his side had been unbearable for him. Xiao Linye never wanted to experience that feeling again.

Ye Yuning was utterly helpless against him. In the end, she could only hide her face in his embrace, not daring to let anyone see her.

However, it wasn’t long before a woman’s voice rang out from nearby...

"Aye!"

Hearing this voice, Ye Yuning stiffened instantly in Xiao Linye’s arms.

It was Qi Mulan... 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Qin Jinchuan and Tang Xi, who were following a short distance behind, saw Qi Mulan appear. Both were momentarily taken aback.

What a scene...!

Qi Mulan stood a short distance away, her eyes brimming with tears and reproach, gazing at Xiao Linye with a face full of sorrow and aggrievement.

In Xiao Linye’s arms, Ye Yuning subconsciously tightened her grip on his clothes.
