Han Yuan gently embraced A Lan's waist and followed her steps, slowly spinning back and forth.

It was his first time dancing, his first time dancing with such a beautiful woman in such an independent, luxurious, and private space.

It was impossible for Han Yuan to not be excited. It was also impossible for him to not be emotional, unless he was abnormal.

Unfortunately, he was normal. He was an extremely normal hot-blooded man.

Listening to this "To Be Your Happy Treasure", Han Yuan thought of how he once made breakfast for Gu Yan every day, gently woke her up, and cherished his beloved treasure every day … However, he had never received the tender affection from the song, and Gu Yan regarded it as a matter of course that he would do all of this, as well as do what he thought was right and proper for her to do.

How great the song was! The power of men, the tenderness of women, the sweetness of love, the happiness of families … Han Yuan just wanted this kind of home. He wanted this kind of woman. He wanted a woman who would take him as her life's backer, who would love him tenderly every day, waiting for him to come home.

No matter how hard and tiring he was, no matter how much housework he did, he was willing and did not complain.

However, Gu Yan had never used him as the backing of her life. She felt that she could rely on herself for her high education and abilities, and never on a man.

When Han Yuan heard this song, he felt his heart ache. Unknowingly, his nose and eyes also felt sore.

Love songs can move people because they can be sung to people's hearts.

While he was lamenting his family's marriage and feelings, he felt Ah Lan in his arms leaning against his shoulder. Her hair was pressing against his lips, and the faint fragrance of her hair was directly on his breath.

Oh, Lan, don't do this, don't do this — Han Yuan shouted in his mind. You're luring me into a crime!

Han Yuan exerted a little strength and wanted to gently lift Lan out of his arms and let her leave his body. He already felt that there was a hot factor swelling in his body!

However, as he wrapped his arms around her neck and tried to push her away, Lan seemed to feel his arms tighten around her. He leaned even closer to her, and his entire body was pressed against her.

"Ah Lan!" Han Yuan shouted in a soft voice. He wanted to say "Don't be like this", but there was no sound coming out from his throat. It was as if he was stuck in something!

A'Lan didn't respond. She was still leaning on his chest, hugging his neck tightly, her feet slowly stepping according to the music. She just wanted to lean on his sturdy shoulders and chest and make a good dance. If possible, she hoped that this song would never end, allowing her and Han Yuan to dance until the end of time like this …

"Ah Lan —" Han Yuan called out again, but Ah Lan still didn't respond.

But Han Yuan felt a moist warmth on his shoulder. He knew that A Lan was crying.

His heart immediately softened. He felt pain.

He knew very well that A'Lan was a woman with a story. In his eyes, Lan was a strong woman, an intelligent and capable woman. Today, he saw the hidden sorrow of this seemingly powerful woman. Although she didn't say anything, her expression told him everything. He wanted to say something, but he couldn't bear to open the scar.

Now, she silently leaned on his shoulder and cried. Was she like him, sad from listening to this song, thinking of the past and the people in her life?

Han Yuan subconsciously hugged her and lightly patted her back to show comfort.

As a man, as an unyielding man, his heart was incomparably soft, and he knew how to cherish women. Especially a woman like A'Lan.

How much effort and pressure would a woman have to put up with?

However, Han Yuan didn't dare to take another step forward. He was afraid that he would offend A Lan, but he was also afraid that he would cross the line. After all, he had a family, so he couldn't take even half a step.

A Lan simply put her arms around Han Yuan's neck and wept freely in his arms …

For a long time, she didn't cry like this while hugging a man. Ever since she left that person and that family, she began to live her life of toiling alone. All the hardships, all the hardships, she had to shoulder them all alone. All the pain, she had to face it alone!

Because of that man's ruthlessness, she was determined to let herself live like a human being, live out her own dignity, and on top of that, in his territory!

However, she was a woman after all. She longed for a firm shoulder and a warm home. But after a failure, she didn't dare start a new relationship, didn't dare to accept another man.

Only when she saw Han Yuan did her long-frozen heart once again feel the warmth of love.

Han Yuan, I love you! Many times she had called him that in her heart. But he had a family, and his family was so happy, his wife so beautiful and proud, his son so clever and lovely, he was a happy man.

How could she dare to have any presumptuous thoughts about him?

"Ah Lan —" Han Yuan lightly patted his back and whispered into her ear again.

A'Lan slowly lifted her head, her eyes misty with tears as she looked at him. "Far away."

This incomparably soft and sorrowful "far away" caused Han Yuan's heart to tremble!

In his memory, this was what Gu Yan had called him when they were in love. The rest of the time, she had called him by his name: Han Yuan!

There was someone else who called him that, his mother.

Every time Han Yuan heard this, he felt like he was going back to his childhood. He felt like a child in his mother's eyes, never growing up, always being loved by his mother.

However, just now, A-Lan had called him with infinite tenderness.

He felt as if his heart had been lightly touched, and a part of his brain suddenly became incomparably excited — —

"Yes," he said softly.

Seeing Ah Lan's sorrowful and sorrowful expression, Han Yuan's heart softened. His arms unconsciously tightened around Ah Lan …

Lan looked at him with tears in her eyes, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, and her eyes filled with boundless tenderness.

She couldn't stop herself from reaching out and touching his resolute face, his broad forehead, and that mole on his forehead …

Far, I love you!" he repeated to himself. You know what?

Feeling A Lan's infinite tenderness, Han Yuan's breathing uncontrollably quickened, but inside he was repeatedly telling himself, Don't be like this, you can't be impulsive, you can't!

"Far away —" Lan couldn't help but call out softly. The tears in his eyes quietly slipped away.

"A'Lan —" Han Yuan couldn't help but call out softly, his arms hugging A'Lan even tighter.

A Lan put her arms around his neck and lightly tiptoed. Her trembling lips slowly approached Han Yuan's …

Han Yuan felt his body trembling. His hands, which were holding A Lan, were also trembling. He knew what was going to happen next. Can I? No, no, no!

As Ah Lan's lips closed around his own, he suddenly tightened his grip on her and buried his head in her hair!

"Ah Lan, no! I can't be like this! I can't!" Han Yuan closed his eyes and suppressed the excitement in his heart. He kept repeating in A Lan's ear, "You are a good woman, I can't —"

Although he yearned for the love and nourishment of a woman, this person was not Ah Lan! A Lan was a woman he liked and a woman he respected. He could not casually profane such feelings. No!

A'Lan leaned on his shoulder once more. Her tears flowed like a flood of determination.

That time when Han Yuan was drunk and she sent him home, the reason he pulled her back so excitedly and did not let her go was because he saw her as his wife, Gu Yan!

Now, at this moment, under the state of clarity, he had suppressed his emotions to such an extent that he had firmly rejected her!

As a woman, she was sad! Because she loved him so much, longed for him so much!

But she was so happy! She had once again proven that Han Yuan was a unique and good man! In order to adhere to his love for his wife, he was determined not to take even half a step beyond Lei Chi! He was a man of great control.

Hearing A Lan's sobbing, Han Yuan felt very guilty. He knew he broke A Lan's heart.

A woman so beautiful, so strong, so capable, so noble, who took the initiative to approach you, who took the initiative to express her love for you, yet you so insensible, so firmly rejected her!

Han Yuan, are you pretending to be innocent?

Han Yuan hugged A Lan tightly and repeatedly whispered into her ear, "Sorry, A Lan, sorry, I can't, you are a good woman, be my sister. Just treat me as your big brother, your eternal big brother, okay?"

A'Lan bit hard on his shoulder and nodded vigorously.

Oh, it hurts! Han Yuan shouted in his heart with a grin.

When the music stopped, Han Yuan gently pushed A Lan away and wiped away the tears on her cheeks.

"A Lan, if anything happens in the future, just tell me. I will do my best to protect you —" Han Yuan said.

Blue nods, and the gold beans dribble down his eyes again.

"I didn't expect the chairman to be so teary-eyed —" Han Yuan pretended to tease him lightly. "How are you going to manage your company like this?"

A'Lan pouted and punched Han Yuan. "Don't laugh at me!"

"Fine, I won't laugh at you, but you can't cry anymore!" Han Yuan laughed. "This is the first time I've seen the chairman cry —"

Han Yuan carried A Lan back to the sofa and sat down.

Ah Lan leaned against him and said sorrowfully, "Brother, hug me!"

Han Yuan stretched out his arm and held A Lan tightly in his embrace.

If only I had met you ten years ago! Han Yuan thought to himself, I'll definitely love you to the core of my heart! I will cherish you as the most important treasure in my life!

"Brother, if you had met me ten years ago, would you have fallen in love with me?" Ah Lan asked as he looked at him.
