Chapter 26

In the end, the guy tremblingly carved an identical wound into his own leg.

Only then did Jin Lan agree to let him leave.

I asked: “Aren’t you worried he’ll cause trouble after you’ve bullied him like that?”

Jin Lan pulled me into his arms, kissed the top of my head, and gently rubbed my calf.

He chuckled: “He wouldn’t dare.

“We still have the security footage of him hurting you yesterday. If he really tries to cause trouble.

“I’ll send him inside and have someone teach him a lesson in manners.”

Jin Lan wasn’t joking.

His family background is quite deep.

His parents are business moguls.

His siblings are all returnees, overseas students, doctors, and lawyers.

There’s a huge gap between our family backgrounds; we even had to register our marriage in secret.

Jin Lan hasn’t been in contact with his parents for nearly a year.

I’m anxious. Of course, I don’t take it for granted that I’m worthy of him.

More often than not.

I even wonder if Jin Lan chose the wrong person.
