Chapter 1573: Chapter 1573: The Wheel of Fortune Turns
Being able to come back safely is already a blessing amid misfortune.
“I’m fine. It was just a bump; it healed ages ago.” Qin Youxuan casually brushed off the matter of her concussion with a light tone.
At that moment, when she decided to save Dan Hanjie, she hadn’t thought about anything else. In fact, she hadn’t even thought of her son.
Seeing Dan Hanjie about to jump from the car, her first instinct was that she couldn’t let anything happen to him, which is why she had driven so recklessly to block him.
Thinking back now, she didn’t regret it, but she was deeply terrified.
Especially at this moment, holding the soft, warm little one in her arms.
Qin Youxuan felt an indescribable pang of heartache.
This time, they were lucky; if it hadn’t been so, what would have happened to Tingye?
“Hit where? Are you sure you’re okay?”
Su Yiru snapped out of the earlier awkwardness, quickly stepped forward, and carefully examined Qin Youxuan from head to toe.
Seeing that she indeed had no major injuries, Su Yiru finally let out a sigh of relief.
“Ru, I’m really fine. The serious one is Dan Hanjie—his leg is injured, and he still can’t walk. So I’ll have to stay at the hospital to take care of him, which means I probably won’t be able to report to work at the company for the time being.”
Qin Youxuan looked toward Jin Chenye and bit her lip lightly.
“Brother, I’ll have to trouble you for a while with the operations at Ye Group.”
“…”
As Qin Youxuan’s words fell, everyone present shifted their gaze to Dan Hanjie.
Seeing his right leg wrapped thickly in bandages, they were slightly taken aback.
They wanted to ask more but held back as long as Dan Hanjie was there.
“Dan Yi has been taken away by the police for investigation over corporate crimes, and the media focus is now entirely on the Dan Group. Be careful.”
Before leaving, Jin Chenye made sure to give them a word of caution.
“Mm, I understand.”
Qin Youxuan froze briefly, then nodded lightly.
After seeing them off, she carried her son back to the hospital room.
The little one fell asleep instantly after eating.
His peaceful, angelic sleeping face made Qin Youxuan unable to bear handing him off to Su Yiru.
Walking over to the hospital bed, she didn’t wait for Dan Hanjie to say anything and directly placed the child into his arms first.
“Here, he’s your son too, your responsibility. If you don’t want me to take care of him, then do it yourself. Let’s see who else you’ll get jealous of.” Qin Youxuan’s proactive move left Dan Hanjie utterly stunned.
Narrowing his cold, edgy eyes slightly, he lowered his gaze to the little one, who had instantly snuggled against his chest and fallen asleep.
Holding back his frustration, he couldn’t vent even a bit.
The baby’s sweet, milky scent was strong, and the little thing shifted slightly on his chest, smacking his little lips. Drool was already threatening to spill out.
Qin Youxuan acted fast this time, grabbing a tissue and quickly wiping the little one’s mouth clean.
Seeing Tingye sleeping soundly on Dan Hanjie’s chest, her gaze softened considerably.
“Look, even your son knows you’re his dad. He likes being held by you, and yet you still complain about him.”
“…”
Dan Hanjie merely glanced at her without saying a word.
Still, his large hand gently raised, carefully guarding the little one in his arms to ensure he wouldn’t roll over and fall.
Qin Youxuan quickly snuggled up beside him as well, and the three of them lay down together as a family.
“What’s going on with Dan Yi being taken away for investigation? Was the attack you went through related to this?” Qin Youxuan recalled Jin Chenye’s earlier warning and blinked her feline-like eyes, pondering for a second.
The media’s attention is fully focused on the Dan Family now. If you stay silent, could there be consequences?”
Qin Youxuan mulled it over for a moment, feeling uneasy. She sat up straight.
“If you appear publicly in this condition, the media will definitely fixate on your injuries. Countless strange speculations are bound to surface, and I’m worried it’ll affect your recovery.”
