Super Sweet, 100\% Honeymoon-Chapter 768 - 774: Proving Innocence (2)

He cursed under his breath and fiercely kicked the wall.

Ou Jue fumbled for his phone, dialed a number, and roared without hesitation, "Get someone to hunt down a man named Ye Xisi immediately. Catch him alive and bring him to me—I’m going to kill him myself!"

With that, he angrily hung up the phone.

Inside the room.

It was the first time Xiyan had ever seen something like a smoke bomb.

The room was shrouded in thick smoke, rendering her unable to see anything clearly. Terrified, she got off the bed. "Ou Jue... Ou Jue... where are you?"

Don’t leave me alone...

Hearing the trembling voice of the young girl, the youth’s gaze faltered, and he turned his head toward the room.

He quickly strode back inside and saw Xiyan crashing into the wardrobe, collapsing entirely onto the floor.

"Didn’t I tell you to stay in bed?!"

His voice carried a hint of anger, sharp and rigid.

Xiyan shivered and raised her misty, tear-filled eyes. "I... I just wanted to find you..."

That expression—it was eerily similar to that of a little cat abandoned by its owner, even her voice trembled with a sobbing quality.

Ou Jue’s throat tightened. The rage that had filled his dark eyes gradually subsided and softened.

He stepped forward and scooped her into his arms, his voice hoarse, "I’m here. Don’t be afraid."

"I... about Ye Xisi..." Xiyan wanted to explain.

Ou Jue took off his trench coat and wrapped it entirely around her. "Don’t say anything; I’ll take you back."

Back at the hotel where they had originally been staying, several subordinates immediately rushed over.

Ou Jue, with his tall and commanding presence, carried the girl in his arms, radiating an imposing aura as he walked inside.

As he walked, he gave cold instructions to those trailing him, "Seal off every detail of today’s events entirely. If I hear a single word leaked, you’ll all pay for it dearly!"

The group of people nodded furiously, bowing repeatedly as they followed him. "Yes, yes! Everything that happened this afternoon will remain an absolute secret, sealed forever in R Country!"

This afternoon’s events?

Was he talking about what happened between her and Ye Xisi?

Xiyan lowered her gaze, her lips pressing together tightly.

Back in the room, Ou Jue carried Xiyan straight to the bathroom.

He stripped her completely, personally washing her clean.

Xiyan trembled slightly, a sense of fear stirring within her in the face of this version of Ou Jue.

All she could do was submit to him, letting him meticulously cleanse her.

Yet the more devotedly he washed, the more unbearable the ache in her chest grew.

She bit her lower lip, finally unable to suppress herself as she looked at Ou Jue and said, "Nothing happened between Ye Xisi and me!"

Ou Jue’s hands paused slightly. "It doesn’t matter anymore."

"What?"

"Starting now, I won’t let you leave my sight again."

"So you still refuse to believe me? You believe Qianmo’s claims that something happened between me and Ye Xisi, but you won’t believe me?!"

"Xia Xiyan." Ou Jue suddenly turned to face her, his gaze dark and unfathomable. "I said, it doesn’t matter anymore, okay?"

"It matters! Why doesn’t it matter? I told you nothing happened—nothing happened! Ye Xisi never touched me; he didn’t! He didn’t!" Xiyan grew agitated.

Bang—

The shelving beside the bathtub was swept aside by Ou Jue’s large hand, sending the objects on top scattering to the floor.

His usually composed voice rose slightly now, tinged with barely restrained fury. "Don’t ever make me hear the name Ye Xisi from your mouth again!"

Xiyan’s body trembled, every word she wanted to say seemingly lodged in her throat, unable to escape or sink down.
