Chapter 996: Refusing Milan

with the court right now and get a verdict very soon.""It's like this," Jiang Qingran said softly, "I don't want Xiang Wan to be arrested for attempted murder. If she apologizes to me after I sue her..."Good." Milan nodded lightly.

"Get some rest." Ye Zehan gently soothed her, and after speaking, he was about to stand up and leave.

Just then, Milan grabbed his arm, her eyes filled with a plea. "Don't, Zehan, I beg you, please stay."

Hearing her words, Ye Zehan finally stopped his steps and looked into her eyes, which held a hint of helplessness. "Milan, it's getting late. You should get some rest."

“I don’t want you to leave.” Milan bit her lip, her eyes glistening with tears. “Why do you have to leave me Don’t I mean anything to you You promised to take good care of me, but you’ve only been in Haicheng for a short time and you’re already acting like a different person.”

Hearing Milan's words, Ye Zehan's eyebrows jumped heavily.

He had to admit, he did owe Milan.

The reason for this is not without cause.

Seeing Ye Zehan's frustrated expression, Milan also deeply realized that she was being unreasonable. If this continued, it might cause Ye Zehan to feel resentment towards her.

Then, she took a deep breath, reorganized her thoughts, and patiently reminded him.

"Zehan, I know I lost control of my emotions today, but the reason I reacted that way is because I care about you so much. Can you please stay with me I promise I won't cause you any trouble."

Upon hearing Milan's words, Ye Zehan furrowed his brow, but he still did not agree.

Milan saw him like this, so she didn't care about anything anymore. She rushed forward and grabbed Ye Zehan's hand, her eyes filled with a pleading look.

"Ze Han, I'm so scared..."

Hearing her say this, Ye Zehan finally couldn't bear it.

"Alright, I'll stay here with you until you fall asleep." He finally relaxed.

Then, he scooped Milan into his arms and walked straight towards the bedroom.

Milan lay in bed, obediently tucking the blanket around him, raising his hand to tightly grasp his arm, and looking at his eyes with tearful eyes,

"Zehan, please don't leave me, okay"

Her voice held a pleading tone.

She was truly scared, she didn't know when it started, but when she saw Ye Zehan going after Xiang Wan without hesitation, a bad feeling washed over her.

Ye Zehan didn't speak, remaining silent for a long while.

Milan looked at him, biting her lip, "Zehan, is it hard to do"

Ye Zehan looked at Milan, his eyes flashing with a hint of coldness. "Milan, haven't you been hiding something from me"

"What's the matter"

Milan was stunned by the question, taking a long time to react. "When could I possibly hide anything from you, Zehan... Are you being too sensitive"

"Really" Ye Zehan leaned down slightly, his slender fingers gently stroking her cheek.

His fingertips were very cold, and when they touched her face, Milan shivered involuntarily.

Their eyes, fixed on Ye Zehan, held a hint of fear.

Milan immediately pulled out from the bed, clutching his wounded hand tightly in her palm. Her eyes held a tinge of sorrow, "Zehan, I really haven't hidden anything from you, why would you doubt me like this I'm truly heartbroken."

Ke Ye Zehan, however, was no longer fooled. He pursed his lips and couldn't help but sneer, "Milan, you know I hate people who lie and deceive me. If you really lied to me, when I remember those memories, it will be the day our relationship ends."

After saying this, he turned and left.

"Zehan!" Milan tried to call after him.

Ye Zechan was like he hadn't heard her voice at all, without any pause, he slammed the door shut with a loud "bang".

Suddenly, Milan was the only one left in the large hotel, making it incredibly quiet.

And all her preparations, like the roast chicken and candlelit dinner, went down the drain!

Milan's fingers weaved through the hair, clutching tightly, and in this moment, her emotions found an outlet, a pained growl escaping her lips.

Why

She had put in so much thought and effort, finally managing to tie Ye Zehan to her side.

The moment Ke Ye Zehan saw Xiang Wan, everything was about to return to its origin.

Her heart ached...

Just as Milan was crying uncontrollably, she suddenly received a phone call. She took it out and saw that it was Joe calling her.

On the phone, Joe spoke in a low voice, "Milan, I've just landed at Haicheng Airport. Come pick me up."

"Okay, wait for me."

When Milan heard Joe's words, her eyes suddenly lit up.

She seemed to have found some goal, and immediately stopped crying, a joyful smile playing on her lips.

Yes, she has Joe too.

Since Sanya has a way to help Yue Zehan recover his memory, she's not just some pushover.

……

After leaving the hotel, Ye Zehan went straight back to his residence.

It was already eleven o'clock at night, but he didn't feel sleepy at all.

He stood by the window, fumbled a cigarette out of his pocket, lit it and began to smoke.

Soon, smoke enveloped his handsome face, making his features even more alluring.

Ye Zehan's eyes narrowed slightly, a thoughtful look appearing in his gaze. He suddenly felt very curious, what kind of person was Ye Zehan To be able to captivate Xiang Wan so completely!

Thinking of this, Ye Zehan extinguished the cigarette butt in the ashtray and turned to walk into the study.

He opened up the computer, his long fingers typing on the keyboard, bringing out the three characters "He Hanchuan".

This is why he was so earnestly searching for He Hanchuan's name, investigating his identity.

In a flash, the webpage lit up, displaying all of He Hanchuan's information.

The more Ye Zehan looked, the more shocked he became.

Ge Hanchuan is such an impressive figure, the leader of the business world and a billionaire.

Yet, despite being such an incredible person, he is not at all a heartbreaker. Almost all his affections revolve around Yua and his children. He spent billions just to surprise her and make his wife happy.

There are few reports of him online, but almost every photo taken shows He Hanchuan accompanying his wife and children.

He is a very devoted family man.

Such a man is admirable, yet also makes one feel inferior.

After reading the news, Ye Zehan lowered his eyes, his gaze very complex.

He couldn't explain why, but he always felt a strange similarity to Ye Zehan. He just couldn't pinpoint where the difference lay.

They all had, in their hearts, nearly the same belief: to protect Xiao Wan and the children, making sure they wouldn't suffer any harm.s."Do you have to be so confrontational with me" He pressed Menglan's head against his shoulder, where she couldn't see, his palm clenching into a fist. "I'm doing this for your own good.""For my own...
