Chapter 1217: Chapter 1217: All You Need Is to Believe in Me

“We can’t be certain about his relationship with Dan Yi yet, but he’ll slip up soon.”

Dan Hanjie cupped Qin Youxuan’s face with both hands, their foreheads touching.

“Kitty, do you trust me?”

“It depends on your performance,” Qin Youxuan pouted, her cat-like eyes blinking playfully.

“I’m serious.” Dan Hanjie’s gaze deepened as he looked steadily into her eyes.

Their eyes locked, Qin Youxuan nodded firmly.

“I trust.”

“Not jealous anymore?”

“I am, I’m both jealous and trusting at the same time, there’s no contradiction.”

Qin Youxuan replied as if it were the most natural thing, not finding anything odd about her answer.

Dan Hanjie rubbed her little head affectionately and kissed her cherry lips.

“As long as you trust me, that’s enough.”

“Cough cough–”

Ning Yanan, carrying little Tingye, had just walked down the stairs when she stumbled upon this awkward scene.

Just as she was about to vanish back upstairs, the little guy started crying.

Now there was no time to hide, she could only cough uncomfortably twice.

Qin Youxuan kicked Dan Hanjie away with one foot and stood up from the sofa, her face flushed.

In broad daylight, they were kissing on the couch like this; anyone who saw them would think they couldn’t help themselves and got carried away in the living room.

Unfortunately, this kind of thing was hard to explain; it always seemed to get worse the more you tried.

Qin Youxuan felt even more awkward looking at Ning Yanan’s embarrassed expression.

“Um, Tingye seems hungry, he’s been quite fussy.”

Ning Yanan pointed to the little one in her arms.

Upon seeing his mother, the little guy started crying softly.

His two tender little fists clenched, constantly shoving into his mouth, sucking hard, unable to suck anything out.

His pout showing how aggrieved he felt.

“There, there, sweetheart, don’t cry, mama’s got you.”

As soon as Qin Youxuan saw her son’s dark, tearful eyes, her heart ached terribly, and she quickly picked up the little one.

“I’ve got something to attend to, I’ll head back first and contact you when I’m free.”

Ning Yanan was unnerved at the sight of Dan Hanjie, grabbed her bag, quickly said goodbye, and rushed out of the private villa.

She didn’t drive here, so she hailed a cab at the roadside and gave the address.

Just as she got into the car, her phone rang.

Looking at the caller ID,

The flashing words “Mo Xiyan.”

Ning Yanan hesitated for a moment, her finger poised over the end call button, then put her phone back in her bag.

When the phone rang a second time, she ignored it.

The police department had a rule that even during off hours you couldn’t just turn off your phone in case of an emergency, otherwise she’d have switched it off already.

“Miss, your phone is ringing, aren’t you going to answer?” The driver thought she hadn’t heard it and kindly reminded her when it rang for the third time.

“I’ll call back later.”

Ning Yanan hastily muted the phone with a swipe and stowed it away again.

This time, it didn’t ring a fourth time.

“We’ve arrived.”

“Thank you.”

Having paid the fare, Ning Yanan opened the car door and stepped out.

She had just reached the front of her apartment building when she suddenly stopped and looked back.

For some reason, her natural instincts made her feel like someone was watching her.

Ning Yanan scanned the people on both sides of the street but noticed nothing, then with a subdued gaze, she entered the elevator.

After her figure disappeared, the window of a luxurious car across the street rolled down slowly, revealing Jiang Jinchen’s exhausted face.

He had waited for her all day but lacked the courage to go down and say a word to her.

Last night’s incident was like a nightmare.

Jiang Jinchen still couldn’t understand how he could have touched Jing Yan…
