The Long-awaited Mr Han-Chapter 3449 - Scare Him

Chapter 3449: Scare Him

Xie Jiwen almost wanted to curse and say, “Who the hell is your big brother?!”

But as a civilized person, Xie Jiwen simply cursed secretly. He didn’t actually curse out loud.

Seeing Xie Jiwen suppressing his anger, Han Zhuofeng felt much better.

So what if he was Xie Jiling’s big brother?

Xie Jiwen shouldn’t look at him like he was an enemy, right?

All he did was hold Xie Jiling’s hand!

Had Xie Jiwen never held a girl’s hand?

Han Zhuofeng pouted as he thought.

He then heard Xie Jiling say to Xie Jiwen. “This is my client.”

Han Zhuofeng was dumbfounded that he got labeled as a mere client.

Although there was nothing wrong with what Xie Jiling said…

Xie Jiling came here because she had accepted Han Zhuofeng’s commission.

However, Han Zhuofeng still felt really sad upon hearing it.

He felt wronged as he looked at Xie Jiling and said, “I thought we were friends.”

“We are friends,” Xie Jiling replied without any hesitation, “But I came here because I accepted your request. I have to keep business and personal affairs separate.”

Han Zhuofeng was speechless. “…”

Xie Jiwen couldn’t help but laugh.

Did you think I didn’t see you mocking me earlier?

You think you have a good relationship with our family’s Jiling, right?

How do you feel now?

How do you feel after hearing her say that you’re just a client and business is separate from personal matters?

Are you happy?

Are you surprised?

Xie Jiwen immediately stopped smiling. His eyes turned cold as he cast a glance at Xie Jiling and Han Zhuofeng’s intertwined hands. He immediately asked, “Why are you two holding hands?” 𝗳𝔯𝙚e𝒘e𝚋𝘯𝚘ν𝙚l.𝑐o𝙢

Han Zhuofeng was speechless. “…”

Were the members of the Xie Family always this straightforward?

They would say anything that came to their minds, and they would never say it in a tactful manner.

It happened earlier as well. Xie Jiwen had just asked about his relationship with Xie Jiling.

Wasn’t that awkward?

Without even thinking, Han Zhuofeng knew how Xie Jiling would answer.

As expected, he heard Xie Jiling say, “It’s too foggy here. Although we are tied together by the string, I’m scared that something dangerous might happen, and he’ll disappear without making a sound.”

Moreover, Han Zhuofeng was scared.

And so, Xie Jiling didn’t realize what was wrong with holding hands.

Xie Jiwen felt as though Han Zhuofeng was trying to trick his family’s Jiling.

Xie Jiwen narrowed his eyes and stretched his hand out. He said, “Since I am here, I will hold your hand and walk you around.”

Han Zhuofeng was speechless. “…”

He didn’t trust Xie Jiwen.

He had a feeling that Xie Jiwen would find a chance to ditch him together with Xie Jiling!

Thankfully, before Han Zhuofeng could even say anything, Xie Jiling shook her wrist and said, “Our wrists are tied together by the string.”

Xie Jiwen gnashed his teeth and said, “Untie the string then.”

Xie Jiling looked at Xie Jiwen weirdly.

Just when did Xie Jiwen become such a busybody?

In this situation, they didn’t have the leeway to untie and tie the string again.

As such, Xie Jiling waved her hand in a carefree manner and said, “It’s alright. I can hold his hand. It will waste a lot of time to untie the string and tie it again.”

Xie Jiwen didn’t know what to say.

This little sister of his was so dense!

Han Zhuofeng hastily nodded and said, “Yes. We shouldn’t waste our time. Look at how foggy it has become.”

Han Zhuofeng wasn’t lying.

The fog had become much thicker than before.

Previously, the brightness talisman in Xie Jiling’s hand could illuminate until they could see the two strange rocks. But now, they could only see half of the second rock.

They could only see the shadow of the second strange rock.

“Let’s go. Let’s meet up with the others.” Xie Jiwen had no choice but to say.

This really wasn’t the time to talk to Xie Jiling about this.

But once they were done with their official business, he would have a good chat with both Xie Jiling and Han Zhuofeng.

“Meet up?” Xie Jiling was surprised and happy, “Did someone from the family come as well?”

Xie Jiwen said, “No. It’s not a family member.”

Since Xie Jiling and Han Zhuofeng would meet the person later, Xie Jiwen said, “You know her as well. She’s Hu Kaiyin, a member of the Mount Lan Compound.”

Xie Jiling was surprised and said, “Why are you here with Sister Kaiyin?”

When Han Zhuofeng heard this, he secretly chuckled and thought to himself, ‘So he’s not here by himself?’

For some reason, Xie Jiwen ignored Xie Jiling’s question and said, “Hu Kaiyin and I were around the area, and we met four students. They heard about the legend of Ghost Town. So, they hid from the staff members and secretly stayed.”

“I was worried that those people might disobey and wander away, so I asked Hu Kaiyin to stay there first,” Xie Jiwen said, “I gave her a brightness talisman and drew a formation around those people. If they were the only ones there, I would have to worry about them running away, resulting in my effort drawing the formation to be wasted.”

“So, I asked Hu Kaiyin to wait there first and make sure that those students would stay right there.” Xie Jiwen said.

With Hu Kaiyin there, those students were like chicks in a coop. They couldn’t go anywhere.

“With the area formation drawn, even if there were something, it wouldn’t be able to hurt them.” Xie Jiwen said, “I decided to investigate the surrounding areas and see if anyone else was still hiding. If there were other people still hiding, I would gather them all together, which will make it easier for me to protect them.”

“Hu Kaiyin has a brightness talisman. We just need to locate them by following the light.”

Xie Jiling nodded, and the three went there together.

Xie Jiwen could somewhat remember the directions toward that place.

As long as those people stayed there, even if the direction they were going wasn’t exactly right, they would still find the light from the brightness talisman.

The brightness would still be seen if they were close enough.

Han Zhuofeng pretended as though there was no one else present. He held Xie Jiling’s hand and felt really happy.

And being his mischievous self, he asked, “Big Brother, Jiling just asked you why you were with Hu Kaiyin, but you didn’t answer.”

Xie Jiwen remained silent. 𝐟𝘳𝑒𝗲𝘸e𝒃𝘯𝒐𝐯e𝚕.c𝒐𝒎

Han Zhuofeng asked again, “Big Brother, why won’t you talk?”

After a few moments of silence, Xie Jiwen slowly turned his head and asked, “What did you ask earlier?”

Han Zhuofeng was not mentally prepared for it. He looked up and saw Xie Jiwen shining his own face with the flashlight.

The shadows staggered on his distinctive physical features.

His tall nose, tall forehead, and sharp chin appeared really bright.

However, Xie Jiwen’s eye sockets were deep, which made his eyes and the area around it appear really deep and dark.

Xie Jiwen lowered his head on purpose and rolled his eyes backward.

In addition, it was dark and foggy everywhere. He couldn’t see anything.

As such, Xie Jiwen appeared even more terrifying.

Didn’t Xie Jiling say that Han Zhuofeng was scared?

He wanted to see if Han Zhuofeng was actually scared.

“What did you ask earlier?” Xie Jiwen intentionally slowed down and deepened his voice as he said this.

“Ah!” Han Zhuofeng screamed and held on to Xie Jiling.

His scream was so loud even people far away could probably hear it.

Xie Jiling was speechless.

Xie Jiwen was dumbfounded.

Was this guy really a scaredy-cat?

Xie Jiling didn’t know what to do. “Big Brother, I already told you that he’s scared. Why did you intentionally scare him?”
