章 66: Chapter 66 "I don’t want to lose you."

Hun Yu's head snapped to the side from the force of the slap, but he didn't flinch or show any sign of anger. Instead, he slowly turned his gaze back to Su Yan, his expression calm.

Su Yan bit her lip, her hand trembling slightly as she lowered it. Her heart pounded in her chest, the silence between them thick with tension.

"I'm sorry…" Su Yan whispered, her voice barely audible. "I didn't mean to…"

"It's alright," Hun Yu replied, his tone steady. He hesitated briefly before continuing, "But promise me one thing."

Su Yan looked up at him, her eyes searching his. She nodded, knowing that after everything that had happened, there was no turning back.

"I want you to keep this between us. Don't tell anyone what just happened," Hun Yu said, his gaze intense as he locked eyes with her.

Su Yan felt a flicker of confusion but nodded again. Before she could ask why, Hun Yu continued.
