Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 2427: Chapter 231

Ye Zhan’s heart skipped a beat at Momo’s accusatory words.

He tightened his grip on her, pulling her closer into his embrace.

He understood her grievances and sadness.

Ever since he realized he had feelings for her, he had lost his usual calm and wisdom when dealing with her.

He remembered the unprecedented panic he felt when Momo was held hostage, and later, how he yelled at her, making her feel aggrieved.

In the evening, he finally couldn’t hold back and drove to her house.

As it turned out, he saw Huo Song looking for her, and even saw Huo Song confessing to her.

He didn’t care about Huo Song, but Huo Song’s words had made him hesitate.

After a night of inner conflict, the next morning, he appeared at her house and offered to take her to the airport.

Originally, he intended to apologize for yelling at her the day before and to tell her that he liked her.

But unexpectedly...

Upon hearing her indirect confession and probing, he hypocritically rejected her.

"I’m sorry."

His deep, magnetic voice fell on her ear, and then he released her from his embrace.

His deep eyes locked onto her misty ones, and if they weren’t at the airport, he would have kissed her.

"I don’t want your apology."

Momo furrowed her elegant brows; she hadn’t come to hear his apology.

Ye Zhan suddenly smiled.

Curling his lips, "Then what do you want me to do?"

Momo blinked.

Looking into his smiling eyes, inhaling his masculine scent, and at such close proximity, her heart pounded like a drum, and her cheeks flushed with heat.

Raising her delicate brows, she put away all grievances and heartache, and flashed a radiant smile, "How did you know I came to the Imperial City, did my dad call you?"

Coming to the Imperial City was a spur-of-the-moment decision.

Feng Yize didn’t know either.

No one knew except her parents.

In her brilliant smile, Ye Zhan was momentarily dazed, and cheerfully said, "Uncle Mo asked me to pick you up."

"Did you drive here yourself?"

"Yes."

"Shall we talk in the car, or find a place? I have a lot to tell you." Momo’s bright eyes reflected the man’s handsome features, and seeing him made her genuinely happy.

"You must be really busy now, I won’t take up much of your time, I’ll go home after we talk."

Although Momo had impulsively come to the Imperial City to find him, she remained rational.

She wouldn’t cling to him just because she liked him.

"Let’s get in the car first."

A complex emotion flitted through Ye Zhan’s heart.

This candid Momo made him both pained and fond of her.

His feelings for her had unknowingly deepened.

"Okay."

Momo nodded, trying to withdraw her hand that was held in his palm. When he wouldn’t let go, she looked around and softly said, "This is the Imperial City, you should let go, it’s not good if people see."

Ye Zhan was reluctant to let go.

He truly wanted to keep holding Momo’s hand.

Reluctantly releasing her hand, Ye Zhan walked beside Momo, his hand hovering protectively behind her.

To prevent anyone from bumping into her.

Usually walking fast, he unobtrusively slowed his pace to match Momo’s steps.

Two bodyguards followed behind them, minimizing their presence.

Ye Zhan’s car wasn’t parked far away.

He opened the car door for Momo, inviting her in gentlemanly fashion.

Momo thought of something and said to him, "Wait a moment."

Then she turned around and said to the bodyguards standing two steps away, "You two don’t need to follow me, go wherever you want, meet back here at the airport in two hours."

"Yes, Miss."

The two glanced at Ye Zhan and responded in unison.

With Momo being with Ye Zhan, there was no need for their redundant presence.

Momo sat in the front passenger seat, and Ye Zhan closed the door for her before walking to the other side and getting in the driver’s seat.

Her gaze followed his upright figure, and as she watched him get in the car, she smiled sweetly. Just as she was about to pull over the seatbelt, she noticed his bandaged left hand and furrowed her brows again.

Her expression turned cloudy, "Let’s switch places."

"You’re not familiar with the Imperial City, and I can’t use much strength with this hand," Ye Zhan said gently, "You must not have eaten anything on the plane, let’s find a place to eat and talk."

"Let’s go to your family’s restaurant."

"Alright."

Ye Zhan’s gaze lingered on her for a moment before he started the car.
