Chapter 279 Behind The Mask

Song Yu Han didn't expect her to do this, but because he was trained in the military and reacted very fast when she raised her hand to his face. His initial thought was that she was going to slap him and he would willingly accept it, but when he felt her fingers hooking around his mask, he knew what she planned to do.

And even though he stopped her from completely taking the mask off his face, their movements still exposed a bit of the skin underneath the mask.

Ran Xueyi's heart was twisted into a knot. Song Yu Han sighed helplessly and with a slight move of his hand, causing the mask to completely fall down to the ground.

—Tak!

Ran Xueyi finally saw the face hidden by the mask, and her face was filled with both happiness and sadness.

Two conflicting emotions quickly surged deep inside her as soon as she saw the face of her husband in front of her eyes.

How long has she waited for this to happen? How long has she waited to see him again? Nobody knew how long, but every second, minute, and hour felt so difficult for her to breathe. If not for having Xiao Zhanzhan early on after their separation, she might have suffered a bit more. But during the six months she was far away from Song Yu Han and without her baby, it really felt like her world had crumbled away.

Song Yu Han watched in silence as he gazed at her.

"You… Is this real?"

Ran Xueyi was breathless.

But Song Yu Han only pulled her into his embrace and without a word, he carried her into a room and locked the door. Everything was done very quickly. He held her tightly, and his voice that leaked from her neck seemed as if he wanted to envelope her in his warmth through her skin: "I'm here… This isn't a dream."

Ran Xueyi: "But last night—"

That dream she dreamed last night also has him in it.

Son Yu Han stared at her: "You got drunk and mistook it as a dream. But I was there."

Ran Xueyi's heart jumped for a moment, but the words came out faster than her mind: "Then, you knew who Xiao Zhanzhan was for a long time. You stayed next to my house without telling me anything, making me worried about you for the past few months of not contacting me at all. You even posed as somebody else to get close to me. And then, you took Xiao Zhanzhan away…"

Song Yu Han froze while hugging, but he still nodded.

Song Yu Han guessed she had too many questions to ask, but at this moment, he didn't want to answer them, he just wanted to stay beside her.

Song Yu Han let her go and kissed her on the lips, asking her: "Ran Xueyi, do you love me?"

Ran Xueyi felt stunned at his questions.

But soon, she responded without any hint of hesitation, "I love you!"

These three words gave Song Yu Han boundless happiness.

He continued to ask: "Will you love me for the rest of your life?"

Ran Xueyi nodded, "En, for the rest of my life."

Song Yu Han pulled her back to hug her tightly and said in her ears, "Me too… I can't live without you. But if I die, will you still stay beside me? Of course, it it was you, I would do it too. I could also die with you."

Ran Xueyi's mind quickly caught his words and pulled away for a bit before unblinkingly said, "That kind of joke isn't funny at all."

What was he trying to say? Even if he didn't want to separate from her, isn't this a bit too much? Besides, wasn't he completely ignoring the part in the wedding vows 'Till Death Do Us Part?'

Song Yu Han stared at her: "Do you really think I'm joking?"

Ran Xueyi looked at his dark grey eyes and frowned. Certainly, he didn't look like he was joking with her, but what made him think like this?

Ran Xueyi knew that this kind of love he was talking about was the dangerous kind. But what type of love doesn't really take any risks? What kind of love doesn't have its own kind of dangers? Anyone takes risks in every love chance they could get until they find their true love. Ran Xueyi was also taking her chances right now.

And Ran Xueyi was very willing to take everything that Song Yu Han gives to her no matter what other people says.

Instead of replying to him, Ran Xueyi slowly smiled and retorted: "You're really willing to live with a dead body?"

"Not any dead body. Only yours."

"Isn't that necrophilia? Doesn't that disgust you since it would rot quickly?"

Song Yu Han was put into a spot by her questions.

But he still gently said, "It's okay if it's you. I don't mind because I know it's you. I just don't want you to leave me."

Ran Xueyi sighed and stepped on her tiptoes before giving a peck on his lips. "Yu Han, I'm not going anywhere. I'm not going to die anytime soon. I still have a lot of things I wanted to do with you and Xiao Zhanzhan. There's no need for you to feel so anxious about something that will not happen."

Ran Xueyi could tell what Song Yu Han was worried about, but she was not his mother. She wasn't so faint-hearted to know the horrible things in the world that she would let anything hurtful and terrifying things get to her. She was no longer so weak and vulnerable anyone could just step on her. And most importantly, she wasn't as merciful as she had been before.

Song Yu Han lowered his eyes and said, "I know."

Ran Xueyi pressed her forehead and the tip of her nose to his and said: "I hope you're not going to think about this kind of thing anymore. If you're afraid I'll go somewhere, just get a handcuff and tie me next to you. In that way, you can be sure that I'll always be by your side."

…

Ran Xueyi could let Song Yu Han stay in the house that night. With her servants sneaking glances in her way as she sent him out, she knew that they would probably spread the news soon. But she wouldn't stop them from doing that.

As expected, as soon as she sent her son to sleep, Jian Yiling, who was panting from rushing over there, leaned her palms against the table and was glaring at her.

"Who is that man?"

Ran Xueyi calmly stared at her and said, "It's the Earl, the man who sent the invitation card and also the man who stayed with Xiao Zhanzhan while I was away."

Jian Yiling raised her eyebrows. "Stay? Kidnapped, you mean?"

Ran Xueyi did not reply.

Jian Yiling frowned and huffily said, "Look, I know you've been lonely for a long time, but you can't be so blinded by lust that you decided to forget and forgive the man who took your son without permission, right? Not to mention, you're already married and have a child now. You can't seriously swoon over that man just because you danced with him during the ball!"

Ran Xueyi: "How did you know I danced with him?"

Jian Yiling: "Louis told me he heard from one of the guests who was invited last night that a golden angel danced with the enigmatic Earl. So, I guessed it must be you."

"There are other girls there who wore a golden dress. It wasn't just me."

Jian Yiling intensified her glare and said with her lips forming a thin line: "Yes, but only you can be called a golden angel! Others can be Christmas decorative balls or yellow submarines!"

Ran Xueyi was not shocked by her crude analogy. She even pitied those ladies who wore gold-colored dresses last night.

Jian Yiling hated Ran Xueyi's indifference when it came to important matters. She rounded the table and got her hands on her best friend, shaking her a few times to get her head straight.

"Ran Xueyi, know this, I will never let you do something as foolish as cheating your kind and gentle husband! How could you think of some other man when you already have a generous and wealthy and handsome husband!" Jian Yiling couldn't understand Ran Xueyi's actions this time. "Can't you at least go through a divorce before you think of jumping to another ship? Think of what Xiao Zhanzhan will think when he hears that you cheated on his father?"

Ran Xueyi: "…."

Jian Yiling was too fast to speak. She could even win the Rap World Championship if she wanted. No, she might even beat all the soldiers in the battlefield with only her mouth, no bullets were needed. Her mouth that was similar to a machine gun would be enough to win a battle.

Ran Xueyi felt so drained even though she only spoke a few words compared to Jian Yiling. But that was her best friend's charm.
