Chapter 414 (1/2)

Jian Han walked along in the corridor of the temple. She was pondering her troubles. She heard the sound of crisp bell chimes in the air. She lifted her head to have a look, only to see a square table in front of her. There was a nun standing beside the table, looking benevolent and kind.

She went forward and saw that there were many silver accessories placed on the table. The designs were simple and elegant, and they were very pretty.

The nun noticed that she was interested, smiled, and said, “Devotee, these few accessories are blessed by the temple. They can ensure your safety, do you want to have one?”

Jian Han picked one of the silver bracelets up. “Can this protect….an unborn child’s safety?” she asked in a soft voice.

The nun’s kind gaze landed on her flat abdomen. “Of course it can, devotee. Buddha will definitely protect both you and the baby, and ensure both of you would be safe.”

Jian Han curled the corners of her lips into a sweet smile. “Okay, I will buy this then. How much does this cost?”

The female nun pointed in front of her. “This is not for sale. It is all up to your heart. You can donate some money for incense and offerings.”

“Okay.”

…

Jian Han took the silver bracelet. She walked through the corridor and saw that there was a red leaf cherry plum tree out front, and the tree was full of cherry plums.

There was a nun plucking the cherry plums off the tree. The nun saw her coming, smiled, and said, “Devotee, you can also pluck one to have a try.”

Jian Han looked at the green coloured plums and was a little tempted. “Can I do that?”

“Of course you can. It is only just that the cherry plums in this season are not ripe yet. They taste a little sour.”

Sour?

Jian Han’s eyes lit up. She’s been pregnant for one month now, and she had recently developed quite a taste for sour things.

She aimed at one cherry plum, and went on her tiptoes to pick it.

When Zhou Dayuan walked out, he saw her plucking cherry plums. The woman selected one on a high branch. She was not tall enough and could not reach it.

Those female nuns were done plucking, and she was still trying to pluck hers.

Zhou Dayuan looked at her frail, weak attempt. She tried hard to get that plum, looking naïve and silly.

He placed both of his hands in his pockets and stood in place. He noticed when she went out of the door just now and did not dare to follow her out, but this silly woman, she got lost frequently in England, and he was afraid that she would get lost in this temple too.

There were many monks here, and she looked very beautiful.

He would imagine the crazy possibilities.

Zhou Dayuan started to feel good. At this moment, he saw the silver bracelet she wore on her wrist. Her wrist was very slim, and the sleeve of her s.h.i.+rt today was mid length. This silver bracelet was very eye catching on her wrist.

He had not seen her wearing this silver bracelet in the car. Why did she have one on right now?

Who gave it to her?

Zhou Dayuan’s warm gaze turned sinister in an instant.

Jian Han could not pluck the cherry plum that she wanted. She pouted her pink lips and was defeated. Okay then. She decided to pluck a cherry plum that was by her side.

She held the cherry plum in the centre of her palm, and she turned around in satisfaction.

She would wash it before eating.

Right when she turned around, Jian Han saw Zhou Dayuan. She was extremely shocked. When did this man come? He did not even make a single sound even though he was standing behind her.

She looked at his facial expressions. He seemed to be in a bad mood, and his dark eyes were pure and sparkling as he purposely stared at her.

Jian Han also felt wronged. She did not know what she did wrong to make him angry.

She still felt a little wronged. Jian Han cast her gaze downwards. She thought inside her heart, she would control it for a while. After making it through tonight, she would return to Singapore tomorrow.

He could not see her anymore, and his mood would naturally be much better.

Jian Han decided to ignore him. She walked forward and brushed across his side.

But she was unable to leave, because her wrist was pinned down. She had a bracelet on her wrist. He used a lot of strength. He was pinching her and hated that he could not break her wrist into pieces. “Siii!” She lifted her elegant brows up immediately and said, “It hurts…”

She struggled. She wanted to shake his hand off, “Zhou Dayuan, what are you doing? Let go of me. You’re hurting me…”

In the next second, she stumbled, and it turned out that the man pinned her wrist and started to walk, and she was forced to follow him.

The cherry plums in her left hand fell onto the ground in a moment, and they rolled a few metres away.

There was a chill on her back. It turned out that he dragged her into a corner, it was the empty s.p.a.ce between the two houses. It was a blind spot, rather concealed, and she was forced against the wall.

Jian Han felt extremely wronged. These past few days, he has been getting worse and worse. The kind of place they were in, it was the place for monks to meditate, clean and pure.

How could it allow for him to do such things to her?

Her right hand was pinned down by him. She was really in a lot of pain. She was in so much pain, and the tears in her eyes streamed down. She kneaded her left hand into a small fist as she punched him. “Zhou Dayuan, that’s enough. Let go of me! What reason do you have to be doing this to me? I don’t like you anymore, and I won’t allow you to bully me again!”

She did not dare to raise her voice. It was also because she was pregnant that she did not dare raise her voice. Even if she was chiding him, her voice was soft and gentle. Zhou Dayuan listened on with a frown on his face, and he knew in his heart that this woman would really cost him his life.

He used his large hand to pin her slim wrist. He could not hold it back anymore and came forward cunningly. He used his long leg to forcefully pin her slim legs that were moving all over the place. He forced her long, slim body underneath him. If she moved for a minute, he would torture her for a minute.

His eyes were a little red, his large hand touched her silver bracelet as he tugged it down. He neared her and did not seek her consent as he bit her tiny snow white earlobe. “Who gave it to you? Say it!”

Jian Han was in great pain. Her small shoulders were trembling. She sobbed as she begged him. “Don’t bite me, it hurts… It really hurts so much…”
