Luo Chao smiled and said, "Hmm, I can tell. Shopping, snacks, and a candlelit dinner in the evening—all of these must have been planned by you."
Zhang Yufei blushed and said, "If you don't speak, nobody will take you for a mute. Co, cheers!" With that, she picked up her wine glass, and Luo Chao did the sa.
With a clink, the wine glasses gently touched, and just as Luo Chao took a small sip to savor the wine, Zhang Yufei downed half her glass in one go!
"Puh!" Luo Chao burst out laughing and quickly used a napkin to wipe his mouth, which made the policewoman angry. She said indignantly, "Luo Chao, what's wrong with you? You're either spitting tea or wine all over the place in front of . Is it really necessary for you?"
"Ahem," Luo Chao pretended to cough a couple of tis and finally caught his breath, then said seriously, "Yufei, wine isn't beer. You can't drink it like that. You're supposed to take a small sip and savor the wine's flavor with your tongue."
Zhang Yufei froze. It was her first ti drinking wine. She had only ordered it because she saw people ordering wine with their Western als and didn't know it was ant to be drunk this way.
She really was a newbie at dating, Luo Chao thought to himself with amusent, though he didn't dare laugh out loud.
"Why didn't you say so earlier!" Zhang Yufei said, both embarrassed and annoyed.
Luo Chao chuckled awkwardly, not saying more. He watched the policewoman's pretty, blushing face, her brows like a painting, eyes like stars, lips like cherries. Such a stunning policewoman who, like Ning Wanxi, was an innocent young woman. Luo Chao felt unworthy of being liked by such a beautiful and well-endowed policewoman.
At that mont, a thought suddenly occurred to Luo Chao: he wished he could be an ordinary person, able to date the policewoman properly, able to sleep soundly every night without nightmares. But even such a small wish was sothing the heavens couldn't grant him—
"Is there a flower on my face?" Zhang Yufei asked, feeling both shy and pleased as Luo Chao gazed at her in admiration for the first ti, sothing she wasn't used to at all.
Luo Chao snapped back and smiled, "No, I just suddenly thought you looked even prettier."
"Smooth talker!" Zhang Yufei gave him a sideways glance and lowered her head, her eyes full of joy.
The faint candlelight illuminated the dining table and the two of them, creating an incredibly warm and romantic atmosphere. Zhang Yufei indulged in this ambiance, wishing ti would stop at that mont.
"Ring ring!" The phone ringing brought Zhang Yufei back to reality. It wasn't her phone ringing, but Luo Chao's. It was an unfamiliar number. Luo Chao answered the call, and suddenly, his eyes were filled with imnse killing intent. In an instant, he sprang from his seat like a bullet, and in the blink of an eye, dashed out of the restaurant.
Sothing was wrong! Zhang Yufei's heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly chased after him, but how could she possibly keep up with Luo Chao's speed? By the ti she reached the door, Luo Chao was nowhere to be seen.
In the West Lake District, amidst a deserted wasteland, a tall, 23-story unfinished building stood at the center. It was initially planned to be part of a new neighborhood, but due to sudden soil issues, the newly constructed building had tilted, and it was left abandoned, awaiting demolition.
The area was desolate, yet there was a flickering light on the fourth floor. With a thud, Luo Chao stepped firmly onto the fourth floor, his eyes sweeping across to see Yamamoto Nakatian standing under the light.
Since the building had no electrical wiring, the light was battery-powered and rather dim, but Luo Chao recognized him instantly. He also saw Ning Wanxi tied to a pillar beside him!
Luo Chao clenched his fists with crackling sounds. He didn't expect Ning Wanxi to be kidnapped by him. Luo Chao had already deployed people to protect her but didn't anticipate Yamamoto Nakatian finding a loophole and abducting her here.
In this, Luo Chao was indeed careless. He initially thought Yamamoto Nakatian wouldn't know about his relationship with Ning Wanxi and would target Hao Keren instead. As a result, most of his manpower was focused on protecting Hao Keren. However, having driven Ning Wanxi's car a few tis, Yamamoto Nakatian took a gamble, one he now knew he had won.
"Didn't expect this, did you?" Yamamoto Nakatian sneered. "Though I don't know what your relationship with her is, seeing you arrive so quickly, it must be quite significant."
"Let her go. Whatever you want, you can co at ," Luo Chao said with a grim expression.
At this mont, killing intent was written all over Luo Chao's face, and his entire being was exuding intense killing intent, making him appear like a God of Death. Yamamoto Nakatian could sense his power.
Yamamoto Nakatian sneered, "Do you think I'm stupid? I know you're formidable, but with this woman in my hands, if you make any moves, I'll kill her imdiately."
Yamamoto Nakatian held a sharp knife to Ning Wanxi's neck, and as a skilled fighter, Luo Chao would be unable to stop the blade once it was down—not a single option left.
Luo Chao's pupils slowly turned blood-red. Such despicable ans further fueled his raging emotions. "Then what do you want!"
A flash of cold light darted over, and Luo Chao caught another sharp knife steadily. Yamamoto Nakatian's lips curled into a cruel smile. "Kill yourself!"
At this mont, Ning Wanxi, who was unconscious, gradually regained consciousness. Slowly raising her head, her eyes not showing a trace of fear, she said indifferently, "Luo Chao, don't worry about . Even if you die, he won't spare ."
"But if he doesn't die, you will certainly die," Yamamoto Nakatian said confidently, knowing Luo Chao was a man of deep affections, and that was his weakness.
Luo Chao rushed here imdiately after receiving Yamamoto Nakatian's call, already guessing how Yamamoto Nakatian might deal with him. But he had no choice. He couldn't just watch Ning Wanxi die; the grudge between him and Yamamoto Nakatian had nothing to do with Ning Wanxi.
The only consolation was that Luo Chao had already killed Yamamoto Junichi; otherwise, with Yamamoto Junichi's lecherous nature, he would have certainly taken indecent asures against Ning Wanxi before Luo Chao's arrival.
As things stood, the elusive Fatigue Sect's Fifth Lord hadn't shown up yet. Maybe he was hiding in the shadows, which made Luo Chao realize he might not escape unscathed. But he must fight once.
Luo Chao picked up the sharp knife from the ground. Ning Wanxi was taken aback, speaking coldly, "Luo Chao, do you not understand what I'm saying? Can you use your intelligence for once!"
