My Sloppy Husband Is Actually a Handsome Bigshot!-Chapter 199 - 191 Dawn 1

"Remittance slip? Ah... I remember now, brother, was it that year Brother Yannan asked you to send out..."

Initially, He Bainian was still immersed in Lin Zhenxin’s slightly angry face, and didn’t pay much attention to He Nuoxin’s words, but the more he listened...

He suddenly reached out and grabbed He Nuoxin’s arm.

The force was so strong that He Nuoxin instinctively cried out in pain.

Yet, even so, Lin Zhenxin heard everything crystal clear!

She was stunned for two seconds, then after seeing He Bainian’s reaction, she seemed to vaguely understand something!

"Pretty Sister!" Just as Lin Zhenxin was about to speak, a small figure rushed towards her from afar!

"Zhenxin?" A slightly cool female voice came from not far away, Lin Zhenxin had just turned her head when a little ball of warmth hugged her thigh.

It was Chu Xingguang!

And not far behind, wasn’t that Jiang Dongting?

Jiang Dongting still had that imposing, icy demeanor that kept people at a distance, as if separated by an invisible wall.

He first glanced at Lin Zhenxin, then shifted his gaze to He Bainian and...

Was that He Nuoxin?

Jiang Dongting paused momentarily.

Clearly, Lin Zhenxin was in trouble.

In silence, he took out his phone and dialed Li Yanan’s number!

"I will be responsible for all compensation in the store, a lawyer will follow up shortly, here’s the number."

Due to He Bainian’s special status, everyone recognized him, so the compensation was not that complicated.

"Nuoxin, let’s go!"

He Bainian avoided Lin Zhenxin’s gaze, but the next second, Lin Zhenxin came to him, raising a hand to block his path.

"He Bainian, the matter isn’t clear, you can’t leave!"

—— Remittance slip? Ah... I remember now, brother, was it that year Brother Yannan asked you to send out...

Although He Nuoxin didn’t finish speaking, the implication of her words left her shaken!

Yannan? What does this matter have to do with him?

—— He must have never told you that back then when he was underground fighting, challenging legendary figures like a madman, all just to earn a bit more commission!

—— That match ended brutally, maybe the Muay Thai king of Singapore and Malaysia didn’t expect to meet such a tough opponent and cheated. Yannan was beaten so severely he broke three ribs, yet he still managed to give a fatal blow while coughing up blood.

—— Money, because he wanted money.

—— His clothes were so old that even cleaners would mistake them for trash and throw them away...

In Vietnam, what Jin Muchi told Lin Zhenxin suddenly resonated in her ears.

"Who exactly sent that remittance slip?" Lin Zhenxin’s eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at him.

He Bainian looked down at the woman blocking his path, her expression just as stubborn as he remembered.

"It was me." He didn’t lie, he was indeed the one who sent that remittance slip.

Lin Zhenxin pressed her lips tightly without speaking; she didn’t believe him!

"Fine, even if you sent the remittance slip, what happened to the money?" Lin Zhenxin took a deep breath and asked differently.

He Nuoxin looked between He Bainian and Lin Zhenxin, becoming acutely aware that she might have caused trouble.

He Bainian said nothing, just looked at Lin Zhenxin.

Never in his life had he felt as embarrassed as he did now.

Chu Xingguang walked over, pulling along the bewildered Little Qilin; although she didn’t know what happened...

She sensed something was off about Lin Zhenxin’s expression.

"He Bainian, I’m asking you, you sent the remittance slip, so where’s the money?"

Lin Zhenxin couldn’t describe her feelings with words; even her fingers were cold as ice, without a hint of warmth.

Yao Lemon understood the whole story the best.

She looked at He Bainian with an incredulous gaze, could he really...

Even lie about something like this?

"It was me." Suddenly, a deep male voice pierced through the crowd, landing right in Lin Zhenxin’s ears.

She looked in the direction of the voice, bewildered.

Li Yanan was there, standing at the source of the voice!

When Jiang Dongting made the call to Li Yanan, Li Yanan was nearby.

After hanging up, it took less than five minutes for him to drive over.

He didn’t expect He Nuoxin would find Zhenxin so quickly, and given her personality...

Li Yanan’s words faded as he steadily walked up to Lin Zhenxin, not sparing a glance at the He siblings.

Lin Zhenxin’s eyes widened slightly, stunned by Li Yanan’s appearance, as if she couldn’t believe it.

"Zhenxin, back then I entrusted He Bainian to send that money to you."

He stretched out a hand, hesitated for a moment, and finally rested it on Lin Zhenxin’s head, gently and tenderly ruffling it.

"He Bainian, take her away!" Li Yanan’s voice was cold as he glanced at the damaged fitting room door.

He Bainian acted as if he didn’t hear, only staring at Lin Zhenxin’s face.

Indeed, he should never have told that lie back then.

"Don’t you dare leave!" Suddenly, Lin Zhenxin’s gaze turned sharp as she tried to block the He siblings.

But before she could rush over, Li Yanan had already grasped her wrist, pulling her entirely into his embrace.

A large hand rested on her head, as if gently comforting, but the hold was firm, leaving Lin Zhenxin unable to break free.

"Li Yanan, let go of me!" Despite herself, Lin Zhenxin’s voice was laced with sobs.

Li Yanan, however, wouldn’t let go, only meeting He Bainian’s face with eyes devoid of any emotion.

"Brother Yannan..." He Nuoxin seemed to want to say something more.

But He Bainian seized her wrist, dragging her outside...

"Sorry, you might have to head back on your own later,"

After the He siblings left, Li Yanan turned to the still-dazed Yao Lemon.

Yao Lemon responded with a sound, snapping back to her senses.

Yet Lin Zhenxin didn’t lift her head from Li Yanan’s embrace, her shoulders trembling.

Li Yanan nodded, exchanging looks with Chu Xingguang who held Little Qilin’s hand, then glanced over at Jiang Dongting and gave a nod.

The next moment, Li Yanan unexpectedly lifted Lin Zhenxin horizontally, walking back the way they came.

Lin Zhenxin buried her head against his neck, arms wrapped tightly around him.

Even though she made no sound, as her skin pressed against his neck with the wet sensation of tears, Li Yanan’s footsteps halted instantly.

"Don’t cry," he said.

After a while, he spoke again.

"Zhenxin, don’t cry."

Lin Zhenxin remained silent until he carried her into the parking garage.

In the vast emptiness of the garage, each step of Li Yanan’s leather shoes echoed heavily.

Soon, they reached the front of the car.

With the unlocking sound, Lin Zhenxin was placed onto the comfortable leather seat.

As Li Yanan was about to close the passenger door, his wrist was unexpectedly grasped by Lin Zhenxin, who still had her head lowered.

She still said nothing, nor made a sound, the warmth of her palm connecting with his skin, bringing a lingering ache.

Lin Zhenxin’s tears fell in large drops.

She said nothing, and Li Yanan also remained quiet, maintaining his bent posture, watching her silently.

"Why?"

Lin Zhenxin cried, her voice barely coherent, her eyes and brows etched with pain when she looked up.

Li Yanan didn’t know, Jin Muchi had already told Lin Zhenxin about those events.

Lin Zhenxin couldn’t imagine that he fought desperately abroad for that money, risking his life!

Yet she knew nothing, even mistaking that person for He Bainian?

She had once empathized with his life, saddened by such an unbearable past.

But how could Lin Zhenxin have imagined that his dire past was all because of her?

"How stupid can you be?"

"Why..." Suddenly, Lin Zhenxin wrapped her arms around his slender waist, burying her face into his firm abdomen.

From beginning to end, Li Yanan didn’t speak, merely holding her quietly in his embrace.

His large hand gently caressed the slender line of her back.

In contrast to his hawkish sharp eyes, only when facing Lin Zhenxin were they gentle enough to squeeze out water.

Brimming with intense affection.

"Because... I love you..."

Lin Zhenxin, because I love you, no matter how hard it is, it’s all worth it.

I’ve waited for so long, just before despair set in, you became the last ray of light in my life.

Because of you, my life gained a whole new meaning.

Though Lin Zhenxin never conceived what lay behind Li Yanan’s unconditional indulgence of her, she had never imagined what it concealed.

And that girl in the red dress.

—— He inadvertently mentioned once that those years, he had some savings, even if the Li family sent him abroad and gave him nothing, he wouldn’t have been in such dire straits! Yet, before leaving, he spent all his money on one item.

At the time, she had wondered, what could be so significant that he would disregard his future life...

Yet insisted on buying it back?

—— I don’t know, he never said, but it was the first time I saw such a happy smile on his face.

Jin Muchi was unaware, but Lin Zhenxin instantly understood.

What Li Yanan purchased was the last painting her father sold before his death.

The only valuable piece!

If that’s the case, then all the inconsistencies could be explained logically.

Lin Zhenxin looked up at Li Yanan with tearful eyes.

Under the bright fluorescent lights of the underground parking lot, she saw his lips curve into a slight smile.

The bittersweet pain in her heart suddenly surged.

"But at the time, I didn’t even know who you were! I didn’t even know who you were!"

Li Yanan’s hand slipped onto her cheek, his wide palm big enough to cover her small face.

"I know..."

He slowly bent down, bringing his face close to Lin Zhenxin’s.

But so what? He didn’t care...

Before meeting her, he felt his life was as worthless as trash.

Living, was no different from being dead.

Being close to her, marrying her, being with her.

Was already the greatest blessing of his life.

What else was there worth fussing over?

"I told you not to cause trouble for Lin Zhenxin anymore! You clearly promised me!"

He Bainian gripped the steering wheel tightly, veins on the back of his hands bulging as if about to break through his skin.

But He Nuoxin acted as if she felt nothing.

"Brother, he wouldn’t even look at me!"

He Nuoxin’s mind was blank, all she could see were the scenes from just now.
