The Newlywed's Sweet Honey: Husband, Pamper Me to the Bone!

Chapter 495: What’s the Hidden Story?

"Yes." Xin said flatly, "I know you don’t trust me. No matter if I’m by your side or Lady Mu’s side, you feel uneasy."

"Then why do you think I would feel at ease with you by my mother’s side?" Yan Sijue sneered slightly.

Anger flickered across Xin’s face: "Yan Sijue, don’t forget! She’s been under my care for the past ten years! To me, she is first my Aunt Lan, then your mother! What right do you have to question me? The one more qualified to be responsible for her is probably me, not you!"

Yan Sijue looked at her coldly, saying nothing.

"No matter what the purpose is, it’s not worth spending over ten years. You’ve always suspected I have another motive, refusing to believe I’m just trying to help you, well then, listen up! I saved her back then because of gratitude for you saving me, but the following decade of caring for her without giving up has nothing to do with you!" Xin’s emotions were a bit agitated, "I’m also an orphan. To me, Aunt Lan is my family. Although I wasn’t able to care for her personally that often, knowing there’s someone in this world who needs me has kept me going! The bond and understanding between Aunt Lan and me, what right do you have to doubt it?"

Saying this, she arrogantly lifted her chin, her expression defiant.

Yan Sijue smiled faintly: "I’ve never worried you would harm her, nor do I doubt your feelings for her, but this doesn’t mean you have no other ulterior motives. Even if you say this, I still don’t trust you."

Xin pressed her lips tightly, looking at him angrily!

"You won’t hurt her, but it doesn’t mean you won’t use her to achieve other purposes." Yan Sijue’s gaze was piercing, "Did she suddenly become inseparable from you? I don’t believe there’s no hidden reason!"

Xin’s pupils contracted slightly.

"Actually, isn’t it just that you can’t accept the fact that Aunt Lan trusts me more than she trusts you?" She curled her lips sarcastically.

"If she truly can’t leave you, then why are you here? This shows she’s not absolutely dependent on you." Yan Sijue sneered, "If you’re willing to stay by my mother’s side, I can’t say I can’t agree, but sorry, your reasons don’t convince me for now."

"You!" Xin gritted her teeth, couldn’t imagine Yan Sijue’s attitude would be so unyielding!

"Yan Sijue, on what grounds?" Her voice was low and angry!

"You are my benefactor, I don’t want to offend you." Yan Sijue said calmly, "If it is benefits you seek, I can meet those within my capabilities. But if it may harm the people I care about, then I can only say sorry!"

Xin was momentarily taken aback, suddenly realizing something: "Actually, what you’re really worried about is Lady Mu, right? You’re afraid I might harm her? The person you actually care about is just her, isn’t it?"

Yan Sijue’s face darkened!

"These matters, aren’t for you to speculate." He said each word firmly!

"Seems I’ve hit the mark." Xin laughed mockingly, "Yan Sijue, I never thought you would be so controlled by a woman!"

"You can leave now!" Yan Sijue coldly ordered her to leave, "As for my mother, I have my own arrangements, you don’t need to worry about it!"

"Is that so?" Xin displayed a meaningful smile, "Let’s hope so."
