Chapter 365 - Chapter 365: Chapter 372: It’s Just Like That (2/2)

Su Wenyue didn’t know how Han Yu would react, she just wanted him to give her a straightforward answer, even if it meant getting angry or scolding her; it would still be better than his current silence.

“Husband?” Su Wenyue called out softly again and fell silent when Han Yu didn’t respond.

Han Yu wasn’t really ignoring Su Wenyue; he just needed a moment to calm his emotions. Although he was initially angry, as he listened to his wife, his anger subsided gradually. His mind became exceptionally rational and clear. Despite feeling jealousy and discomfort, these were issues from a previous life, essentially events that never happened to him. To let these things affect his relationship with his wife, to become distant, would be a loss in itself.

Su Wenyue, unaware of Han Yu’s thoughts, felt this was the most indifferent Han Yu had ever been to her since their marriage. She knew that no man could be indifferent to that affair, despite her slight alterations to the story. It was out of necessity, she thought Han Yu would understand even if angry, but things didn’t turn out as she expected.

What mattered most to Su Wenyue? Even if Han Yu beat or scolded her, his current indifference was what hurt the most. It resembled the previous life’s Han Yu to a painful degree: indifferent, uncaring. This made her feel anxious and hopeless. She was truly content with her current life; could it be destroyed because of the past? As Su Wenyue pondered, tears began to fall.

It didn’t take long for Han Yu to realize that although he still had some issues to resolve, they would fade over time. Hearing no sound from his wife, he turned to look and saw her curled up like an abandoned little creature, silently crying, his heart ached. This fool must have overthought things again.

“Wife, you…” Han Yu sighed, intending to comfort his wife, when suddenly he heard a noise outside along with a warning from the secret guard. The hand that was about to touch his wife’s head retracted, and he hurriedly got dressed, grabbed his sword, and prepared to leave.

With such commotion, even Su Wenyue, lost in her world, couldn’t help but notice. Seeing Han Yu like this, something must have happened. She sat up worriedly, knowing this wasn’t the time for her to be emotional.

“Husband, what’s going on? Where are you going?” she asked.

Han Yu knew this was the time when his wife was most sensitive and needed comforting. But with the situation urgent, he couldn’t delay and had to stop for a moment to give her a few hurried instructions.

“Wife, I’ve got to handle something. Just go to sleep, don’t worry about anything. I’ll explain everything when I come back.”

“Ah, Husband…” Before Su Wenyue could finish, Han Yu had already vanished from her sight.
