From Dusk till Dawn!

Chapter 293: Making a dollhouse for her

"President Mo.." The reporters shouted to get the man's attention but Mo Yuhan did not seem to have heard anything around him as he walked straight towards the woman who was looking at him with a frown on her face, he noticed the movement of her fingers as they rubbed her wrist, which had a few drops of blood oozing out of the scratches.

Her forehead was injured, he noticed it the moment he stepped inside.

His azure eyes flashed as his gaze fell on the reporters and the rest of the people inside the small space, a menacing one that made them shudder. The owner of the place was worried at this point if this place will continue to exist after today.

"Mo Yuhan," Tang Li spoke, which had everyone's attention on her.

Did they know each other? The question popped up in everyone's mind. Then again if he didn't, why would a man like him step inside a place like this supermarket?

Mo Yuhan stood right in front of her, his hand tucking a few loose strands of her hair beside her ear. "Why did you come here?" He said, holding both her hand, entwining his fingers with hers, his voice unusually soft.

Tang Li looked into his eyes, as mesmerizing as she always knew. The unsettled feeling in her heart seemed to have diminished as she looked at the man standing in front of her distractedly.

The rest of the people looked at the scene with their mouths agape. What was that supposed to mean? Why are they both posing like a teenage couple? President Mo was holding the lady's hands in both his hands as they looked at each other. They could see Tang Yichen's sister looking at Mo Yuhan in adoration.

The reporter's eyes burned with curiosity. They did not get to find what they came to search for but seems like they got bigger news.

"Mm?" He asked when she did not reply, his thumb gently stroking her hand.

"I wanted to cook for you.." 

"I did not allow you to enter the kitchen," He said giving her a pointed stare as they walked towards the exit.

"I am not a kid," she said, feeling herself calm down in his presence.

As they walked out, Mo Yuhan turned around as he looked at the people who were staring at them in curiosity. His cold eyes held a deeper meaning that had the crowd shrink back in fear. His gaze lingered on Li Yu for a moment who nodded his head, understanding the man's intention.

"Mo Yuhan, this looks too girlish.." she said looking at the way he had made a bow with the gauze that was wrapped on her wrist.

"You are a girl," He shrugged.

"You mean woman I'm 26.." she corrected him as she folded her legs on the bed.

"You look like a teenager," he said inching closer to her.

She rolled her eyes. 

"Your haphephobia was triggered," He said, suddenly changing the topic and that had her stiffen for a split-second before she relaxed.

She stood up from the bed before walking towards the huge window in their room, her fingers traced the glass pane as she looked at the darkness outside, "I thought I would get over it. I know Mark was not the one who had tried to rape me in the past. I know that the culprit is dead. With all these revelations, I thought my condition would get better over time. But.. seems like I was wrong," she softly murmured. 

She did not like being touched by men, except for the ones she was close to. But having such an impact, to the point that she lost control over her emotions, it made her wonder what will happen if somebody used it against her.

"Don't think so much," He pushed himself to stand up before walking towards her, his hand caressed her palm that was resting on the glass pane.

"What was that about?" She turned around to look at him, her hand slipping from the glass pane that left his palm cold.

"What?"

''You know what I am talking about,'' she tried to walk towards the bed but he put his other hand on the glass pane, trapping her in between his arms.

"It was the video where brother-in-law announced that you were his sister, during the DX shoot," He answered.

"Why?" She frowned. Why would they reveal it to the public? In her curiosity, she did not notice the term 'brother-in-law' that rolled out of his tongue sleekly.

"It was supposed to protect you from attacks and divert their attention towards him for the time being."

"But I ended up being cornered by the reporters," she remarked, a hint of her sarcasm in her tone. Treating her this delicately, are these men preparing a dollhouse for her to stay in?

His lips twitched, "The timing went wrong," If Li Han uploaded the video at the proper time as he had commanded him, things would not have come to this.

"Whatever," She pushed his arms without much force before removing her blazer and throwing it on the floor. Climbing up on the bed, she pulled the blanket before covering her head. She did not want to talk to anyone, neither Mo Yuhan nor her brother. Could they not give her a heads up about the situation before doing anything? 

She did not like things when things were completely out of her control.

"See, this is how your men do the job," Tang Yichen taunted the man sitting in front of him, "Yet you had to remove the people I had assigned for her protection. By doing it, we had planned to protect her for the time being as we bring snakes out of their hole. But we ended up upsetting her, I bet she is not going to talk to me now," What an unlucky day it is, he thought to himself!

Mo Yuhan looked at Li Yu who had his head lowered.
