Chapter 464

Just as Ling Jue was about to destroy the evidence, Si Yuxiao's girlfriend arrived. He had intended to kill both of them, but instead, he was captured instead.

Ling Jue naturally noticed that Rong Rong was pretending to be blind. He cursed the little fox in his heart, but decided to play along with Rong Rong's act.

"Baby, I was just too happy to react for a moment. Of course I'm overjoyed! I'm happiest when my baby is with me!"

Ling Jue deliberately imitated Si Yuxiao's voice, which made Rong Rong's heart tremble. It was originally a deep and magnetic voice that Rong Rong used to love to hear, but now it made Rong Rong feel a little creeped out.

Soon Rongrong felt something soft and slightly damp against her cheek.

The murderer kissed her cheek!

In an instant, Rong Rong got goosebumps all over her body. She suppressed the urge to turn around and run away, biting her lower lip and not daring to cry out.

Ling Jue watched Rong Rong's reaction with amusement, his eyes sparkling with excitement.

The viewers in the live stream were looking at Ling Jue as if he were a pervert.

[Haha, Minister Si has never called Rong Rong "Baby," but Minister Ling revealed it right away. How careless!]

A skilled mission taker would never make such a basic mistake. I think Minister Ling has been blinded by beauty and lost her mind.

[You upstairs have a death wish? Dare to insult Minister Ling? You don't even need to wait for Minister Ling to return; the villains will have you tortured to death!]

[I think Minister Ling doesn't care about being exposed at all, or maybe it's intentional. Don't you guys think Minister Ling and Rong Rong are like the Big Bad Wolf and Little Red Riding Hood?]

No! I won't allow anyone to bully Rong Rong!

Rong Rong knew that Si Yuxiao never called her "baby," but she pretended not to notice and continued to put on a brave face.

She seemed to have been instantly appeased, and looked up at Ling Jue expectantly, "How about we go out to eat? Let's go to Shengdeju!"

"Let's stay home. I've already prepared it." As she spoke, Ling Jue looked towards the dining table, where a table full of dishes was laid out, and several candles were lit, creating a warm and romantic atmosphere.

This was all done by Si Yuxiao. It's clear that Si Yuxiao and Rong Rong have a great understanding. He wasn't actually working overtime today; instead, he spent the whole day at home preparing for this candlelight dinner.

Unfortunately...

Rong Rong's heart skipped a beat; she also saw the dishes on the table.

A sudden pang of heartache struck, and tears almost blurred her vision, but she held back, blinking frantically to keep the tears from falling.

"No, let's go to Shengdeju instead, I really want to eat there!" Rong Rong tugged at Ling Jue's clothes and shook them gently, much more restrained than when she usually acted coquettishly towards Si Yuxiao.

Even so, Ling Jue felt his heart melting.

He looked intently at Rong Rong, a fire burning within him, and finally, in a hoarse voice, he whispered, "Okay."

Rong Rong was about to be happy, but Ling Jue changed the subject, "But wait a moment, sit on the sofa for a while, I'll go change my clothes."

Rong Rong was helped to sit down on the sofa by Ling Jue. She nervously twisted her clothes, worried that something might happen.

The reason she was in such a hurry to go out to eat was twofold: firstly, to send the murderer away so that she could find someone to call the police and an ambulance to save Si Yuxiao, since every minute and every second could potentially cost Si Yuxiao his life.

Secondly, Rong Rong wanted to save herself or find an opportunity to escape. She thought that once she went out and walked on the street, into the crowd, she would have a high chance of running away.

In short, it's definitely better than being in the same house as the murderer!

Rong Rong felt uneasy, and soon her heart was in her throat.

The murderer turned around and walked straight towards Si Yuxiao on the ground, raised the knife high, and stabbed Si Yuxiao hard.

"Brother Xiao!" Rong Rong exclaimed in surprise as she jumped up.

Her excessive concern for Si Yuxiao almost made her forget the current situation.

The air seemed to freeze instantly. Ling Jue paused, slowly stood up, and turned around.

Rong Rong stood there stiffly, her heart pounding wildly, feeling intensely suffocated.

Rong Rong felt like she was being watched by Death, and cold sweat slowly rolled down her forehead.

"Rong Rong?" Ling Jue asked, his voice carrying a frightening and ambiguous tone, "Has something happened?"

Rong Rong unconsciously swallowed, her breathing becoming heavier and heavier. Her mind raced, and she finally whispered, "Brother Xiao, I... I want to leave now, okay? It's too stuffy in this room."

[Baby, your excuse is so lame!!! Your acting is so bad!!! You...sigh!]

What if the twisted villain suddenly doesn't want to play with Rong Bao anymore? Waaaaah, I don't want Rong Bao to suffer!

[Don't cry, Rongbao! Sister will help you beat the bad guys! We'll beat that stinking villain to death!]

The mission participants were in high spirits, shouting that they should fight the villain and Ling Jue!

Many of them were even members of the villains' faction. Their eyes were bloodshot, and their smiles were cruel and bloodthirsty. At this moment, they had all forgotten how terrifying their leader was.

The live stream was flooded with comments, some comforting Rong Rong, others cursing Ling Jue.

But at one point, the comment section suddenly became completely silent, as if someone had turned off the comments. All the live stream screens also became quiet, and everyone stared blankly at the images on the screen.

They forgot to breathe, forgot everything, simply because the beauty on the screen was too captivating.

Yes, Rong Rong made up a clumsy excuse, her voice trembling without her even realizing it.

At this moment, Rong Rong was like a rose about to wither, her branches trembling, captivating everyone's hearts.

Especially those captivating, large, black gem-like eyes, which were quietly gathering mist, watery and shimmering.

Her long, curled eyelashes trembled slightly, each lash seemingly still glistening with water droplets, like flower petals covered in morning dew, or like butterflies with wet wings.

The broken beauty revealed by the peerless beauty tugged at the hearts of countless people; her bright and clear eyes seemed as if a string of pearls would roll down her cheeks at any moment.

"Awooo!" All the mission participants watching the live stream howled.

How could Ling Jue not feel heartbroken?

His heart, as hard as stone, ached as if it were being pricked by needles.

He felt increasingly uncomfortable.

He didn't want to see Rong Rong cry, so even though he knew Rong Rong's excuse was lame and full of loopholes, he still strode forward and walked straight towards Rong Rong.

Rong Rong instinctively stepped back, but quickly forced herself to stay in place. Just as Rong Rong was tense and on edge, Ling Jue pulled her into his arms and then sighed softly.

"Okay, okay, baby? Don't rush! Don't cry!"

Ling Jue used the gentlest voice he had ever used to comfort Rong Rong.

As he spoke, he kissed Rong Rong's eyes, swallowing each tear that welled up in her eyes. He never imagined that his heart could soften so terribly.
