Chapter 464: The Witch
(The range hood is broken. I don’t know if it’s because of the rain. The person who said they would co to fix it can’t make it, so I had to do it myself, which took up quite a bit of ti. Today, only the guaranteed 6K words.)
Li Yan was originally lying on the other side of Li Yan when he was talking. She didn’t speak. Li Yan thought she was pondering or feeling emotional. He didn’t expect her to suddenly leap up and straddle on him, saying sothing that made him sweat a little.
"I want you!"
Similar actions and words had happened with Yu Xiaodi before. However, she was more of a tempting flavor, but when it ca out of Li Jie’s mouth, there was a distinct tone of determination!
"Don’t joke around..." Li Yan chuckled dryly. Recently, he has been entangled with romantic affairs, and he’s always being pushed down by virgins. It’s really an irresistible temptation.
In this regard, Li Yan used to be quite open-minded. If there were no other intentions, rely a mutual comforting match, he wouldn’t mind. Like now, he could guess Li Jie’s intentions, but Li Jie wasn’t soone who could easily let go. She was even more stubborn than the average girl, and she hadn’t had a boyfriend before. If it happened just like that, they wouldn’t be able to face it openly in the future.
"I’m not joking!"
"..."
Li Jie lowered her head and coolly said, "Borrowing it would kill you?"
"..." Li Yan was speechless. Could such a thing be borrowed? Borrow, return, borrow again, return again... This relationship would beco increasingly tangled!
"My job was originally just a bit riskier than others, but this ti I’ve encountered the greatest danger, possibly sacrificing myself at any mont. Didn’t you trick before? You know my situation... If I were to die just like that, would you think I’m willing?"
Li Jie was originally shy about discussing such matters, but now she didn’t feel there was anything to be embarrassed about in front of Li Yan. Her body had been seen and touched by him; they had held hands and hugged. Even as a virgin, she let him trick her into talking about it. Now, she was already pressed on top of him, so what was there to be ashad of?
"Well... but you can’t rush it. Don’t worry, I definitely won’t let anything happen to you! Let’s think long-term about this!" Li Yan said reluctantly.
Li Jie smiled bitterly, "In the past, when protecting Yu Xiaodi and others, I could handle any danger myself. Only during Nian Yufei’s concert did I need your help to save . But today? When they struck at noon, there were five assassins! If you hadn’t intervened, they would have been in trouble, and I couldn’t just hide on the side. Observing and helping indirectly is fine, but facing confrontation without weapons is riddled with dangers. At night, a gun was pointed at , and the bullet was already flying in front of . If you arrived a little later, I’d be dead!"
Li Yan knew she was emotionally turbulent and wanted to sit up to comfort her, but when he braced his waist to get up, she pressed him down again.
"In just one day, strictly speaking, within a few hours, I encountered life-and-death danger twice! You also said tonight is relatively weaker, but starting tomorrow will be extrely dangerous. Unless I leave with you now, I’ll just be a burden if I stay, but with the overall weakness on our side, having a gun still makes a difference. My dad won’t abandon the mission and our people to leave, and since he’s not leaving, I won’t either. How many tis can you save ? Twice a day? Then will you not protect your target but only protect ?"
Seeing her so pessimistic, Li Yan couldn’t disclose his presence and the secret hunting of so elite assassins. He could only earnestly promise, "No matter how many tis in a day, as long as you need it, I will show up imdiately!"
Originally a very serious topic, after he finished speaking, he felt the words seed too ambiguous. What does it an, no matter how many tis a day, as long as you need it, he’ll show up? He quickly added, "I an, even if I can’t save the target, I will definitely save you. I won’t let anything happen to you!"
He made this statent from the heart because, originally, he wasn’t there to protect Julian, but to hunt those operatives from Si Country. He had already taken down six of them, and if nothing else ca up, he would proceed as planned. But since he ca across Li Jie now, if she were in danger, of course, he couldn’t ignore it.
Hearing his words, Li Jie felt slightly moved. Li Yan had just said that he wasn’t soone ordinary people could hire and that his fee was high. Now he was willing to prioritize protecting her over the employer, showing she ant more than commission or even reputation!
"I’m really happy that you feel this way." Her words were a bit low, "Love the work you do. Since choosing this field, after gaining higher remuneration, one must face corresponding dangers. My dad and the others won’t retreat because it concerns Jie Rui’s reputation, and I’m here for my dad. Every cause has an effect, and the outco could be a kind of fate. Isn’t it the sa for you? Is giving up your career for worth it?"
"Why wouldn’t it be worth it? Money can be made again, and reputation can be built again, but if soone you care about dies, they can’t co back to life. In this respect, I’m selfish!"
Selfish... everyone has it!
Li Jie could deeply understand, just like she followed along now, it was also for her father and her own company’s bodyguards. If Julian and her father were in danger simultaneously, she would undoubtedly save her father.
