"Aunt, you will hurt him even more."
Han Xiaowen's eyes widened as she heard Ye Qian's painful groan.
She could see that Ye Qian was in some pain after his cheek was pinched by her aunt.
She could not help but really feel sorry for him.
He had saved her aunt but what did he get in return, other than a crisp slap on his face right before so many people which was enough of an embarrassment for anyone, he was not pinched so hard on his cheek that she even feared that they would swell now.
She could not help but wonder if her aunt was thankful for being saved or punishing Ye Qian because he saved her.
"Ahh, I am so sorry."
Li Feiyun was now close to tears.
'What is happening to me, why am I always hurting him?'
"I..."
Ye Qian forced a smile on his face while trying to get over the pain in his cheeks.
"Aunt, come here, he will be fine as long as you don't get close."
Han Xiaowen shook her head, pulling Li Feiyun.
"I..."
Li Feiyun wanted to retort, but then she thought that what her niece had said was indeed true.
"Aunt...?"
Meanwhile, hearing Han Xiaowen call Li Feiyun AUNT, Ye Qian's brows raised high as he repeated.
So far, he had thought that this lady was Han Xiaowen's elder sister.
"Yes, she is my aunt."
Han Xiaowen nodded while holding Li Feiyun's hand.
But as she said that, she felt her aunt's body suddenly shake for a moment.
"Wenwen..."
Li Feiyun called out but didn't say anything further.
She didn't know why, but she felt a bit embarrassed to be called an aunt by Han Xiaowen right now.
Many times when she had walked out with Han Xiaowen and had been called AUNT, she had never felt odd, but right now she felt that Han Xiaowen should not call her aunt.
That designation made her look like someone who was old.
She took a sneak glance at Ye Qian who was nodding with his lips pursed.
'Haih, he doesn't seem disappointed.'
She didn't know what but she subconsciously released a sigh of relief in her heart.
But a moment later she noticed Ye Qian found her looking at him and quickly ducked her head while a crimson glow appeared on her cheeks while her heart started to race.
'What is my heart beating so fast?'
She wondered.
Meanwhile, all of her actions were not left unnoticed by someone present here.
Li Zhiyun could obviously find many peculiar changes in the behaviour of her younger sister right now.
'This girl.'
She shook her head and sighed in her heart knowing obviously what her younger sister was going through.
She then turned to take a look at Ye Qian.
'This man is about 31 while Yun is 37.'
She thought of the possibility, but then she remembered something.
'But wait, he is married!'
There was no way out of that now.
She knew that her sister had stumbled and it was hard to remove this from her heart.
Although Li Feiyun might be new to this, Li Zhiyun knew very well that the further her sister went, it would only hurt her even more.
In the current world, a slight age difference was not something that anyone cared for.
So if Ye Qian was not married then she might have thought of letting Li Feiyun start a life with Ye Qian.
So far she had known and seen him, he seemed a pretty good guy.
And even being slapped in front of everyone didn't make him turn angry.
One had to know that for a man, the most important thing was their face.
And if someone were to slap them right before tens of unknown people.
No matter how calm and composed they were, they would get angry.
This was a matter of respect.
And for men, respect was something that they cared about the most.
But when Ye Qian was slapped by Li Feiyun, other than some shock and then a somewhat understanding look in his eyes, he didn't seem irritated in the least.
And this made her believe that Ye Qian was definitely a good guy.
It didn't matter if he had quite some money or not.
With Li Feiyun now working along with the Han Corporation, she would be given about a million Yuan as her payment.
And it was enough to sustain a normal family.
Along with that, she also knew her sister very well enough.
She didn't care much about money or fame.
If not then she would have long ago joined the Han Corporation when she had suggested it and not opted to work in a bank for all these years.
"It's only acceptable that such a guy will not be left alone."
She muttered looking at Ye Qian who reacted as if Li Feiyun being Han Xiaowen's aunt was fine.
This only made her look up to Ye Qian even more.
He was not moved by this fact and this only showed how calm he was.
"Thank you for saving my aunt, if not for you today, we might have never known that she was kept here."
Han Xiaowen walked along with Li Feiyun and thanked him.
It was indeed true, if Ye Qian had not removed the plate from the wall, they would have never thought that Li Feiyun was hidden there even if they were to look for her for days.
And she didn't dare to think what might have happened to her aunt if Ye Qian was not here today.
"Nothing to worry about, I was just doing down when I heard those people talking, then I also saw them locking the plate so I thought that there was something fishy."
Ye Qian waved his hand and smiled.
But the guards looked at him in a different way.
Although the kidnappers didn't have any weapons, they were enough to take down a single with ease.
So they couldn't think of a way as to how Ye Qian might have taken care of these guys all alone.
