"So, Xiao Huai, promise me you'll be my girlfriend, okay?"
Yanbo has never had anything he couldn't get since he was a child.
If he wants it, he always finds a way to get it all.
However, people's hearts are too unpredictable; what they want may not actually be what they desire.
Fortunately, he had plenty of patience and thoughtfulness, and was willing to use his actions and sincerity to gradually move and soften her.
If he wasn't entirely sure of her feelings before tonight, then as she walked towards him step by step, he was basically certain that she felt the same way he did for her.
That kind of feeling is not the kind that exists between ordinary friends, but rather the kind of attachment and dependence that only exists between lovers.
Tong Xiaohuai was initially terrified by the fear of possibly losing him, but then she was so shocked by his affectionate and coaxing manner that her IQ completely dropped to offline.
After finally regaining my senses and rationality, I heard his heartfelt confession, and I felt both moved and incredulous.
She stared intently at his handsome profile. "What did you say?"
It wasn't that she was being dramatic; rather, she was genuinely afraid she had misheard!
Indeed, after the torment and struggle she had just gone through, she had a clear understanding of her own heart.
Right now, even if he just asked her to be his girlfriend, or even if he proposed to her, she might actually be able to resist saying yes.
He probably has no idea that the moment he pulled her into his arms, she almost burst into tears on the spot.
Even now, she still misses the warmth of his embrace and the comforting feeling it gave her.
Yan Bo turned around and looked at her in the darkness.
Clearly, the light was not bright.
But they both seemed to see two beating red hearts in each other's eyes.
"Please, be my girlfriend!"
This time, Yanbo didn't use a question; instead, he used an imperative sentence.
This time, Tong Xiaohuai nodded without hesitation.
Yan Bo, as if he hadn't seen her nod, asked again, "Good? Or bad?"
He hoped she could give him an answer herself.
Tong Xiaohuai felt that he was deliberately trying to embarrass her, so she glared at him, but still said, "Fine!"
Yan Bo smiled and leaned in again, this time his lips landing on hers.
His lips lightly brushed against hers, a fleeting kiss like a dragonfly skimming the water, yet it felt as if her lips were on fire, burning hot and frightening.
As if afraid of frightening her, Yan Bo gently kissed her and then parted his lips, but instead, he raised his hand and pulled her into his arms.
"From now on, you're not allowed to do what you did tonight, going to such a dangerous place by yourself without telling me anything, understand?" Yan Bo whispered in her ear.
Tong Xiaohuai was a little embarrassed. She raised her head in his arms and made a somewhat urgent statement.
"But these are the things I face every day. I can't abandon everything in the Tong family for you."
Yan Bo gently pushed her away, placed his hands on her shoulders, and looked directly into her eyes.
“I don’t mean for you to abandon the Tong family. I understand that this is your job, but you should tell me before you do anything dangerous, so that I can be mentally prepared, understand?”
Yan Bo dared not say that he could be of any help. After all, apart from the influence of his father that made the people of L City treat him with deference, he had to admit that he had not yet established his own power, so the help he could give Tong Xiaohuai was limited.
But as her boyfriend, even if he can't participate in her life and work, he should at least have a certain right to know.
Of course, matters involving the Tong family's secrets are an exception.
Tong Xiaohuai thought about it and felt that his request was not excessive.
"Okay, from now on, if anything dangerous happens, I will try my best to report it to you as long as time and circumstances permit."
Having received her assurance, Yanbo held the back of her head and kissed her hard on the lips.
"Shall I take you home?"
After that argument, she probably just wants to go home, take a hot shower, and then lie comfortably in bed to rest and relax.
Tong Xiaohuai nodded, "Mmm..."
Just as Yan Bo had guessed, although this wasn't the first time she had dealt with something like this, she always felt physically and mentally exhausted.
In addition, the fact that she had gone from being Yanbo's friend to his girlfriend overnight left her feeling dizzy and disoriented.
At this moment, the considerate Yan Bo chose a serenade, and the gentle melody lingered in the carriage.
As the music began, she heard his deep yet gentle voice instructing her, "Lower your chair a bit and lie down. I'll call you when we get there."
She responded with an "Oh..." and obediently lowered the chair as he instructed, then lay down at an angle.
After the panic and unease in my heart were dispelled, I felt a sense of exhaustion and weariness.
After closing my eyes, I quickly drifted into a deep sleep.
When she woke up and opened her eyes, she saw Yan Bo's handsome profile.
Then, turning his head to look around, he saw that the car was parked right outside his own door.
"woke up?"
Yanbo, who turned around upon hearing the faint sound, asked with concern.
"Hmm, why didn't you wake me up?"
Tong Xiaohuai lifted the blanket that had been covering her without her noticing, unbuckled her seatbelt, and sat up, leaning against the chair.
"I just arrived, and I was wondering whether I should wake you up when you woke up."
Yan Bo wasn't lying; he was just driving very, very slowly, which allowed Tong Xiaohuai to have a long and beautiful dream.
Tong Xiaohuai glanced at the digital clock in the car, and although she found it strange, she didn't ask any further questions.
Would you like to come in and sit down?
It's getting late, so Tong Xiaohuai doesn't plan to ask him to go for a walk. However, she wouldn't object if he wanted to come home for a chat or have some tea.
Yan Bo glanced at the digital clock, hesitated for a moment, and finally shook his head. "Let's do it another day. It's getting late. Go back and get some sleep."
Tong Xiaohuai nodded, opened the car door, and got out of the car.
Yan Bo also got out of the car, walked around to her side, and gently hugged her. "Go back and take a hot bath, then go to sleep. It'll be a bit late when we get back, so I won't text you to avoid disturbing your sleep."
Tong Xiaohuai wanted to say it was okay, but in the end she didn't say anything.
Yan Bo released her and gently pecked her lips. "Let's go inside. Goodnight."
"good evening!"
Tong Xiaohuai looked back every few steps as she entered the door, waving to him and signaling him to get in the car quickly.
She didn't close the door until he got back into the car, started the engine, and drove away.
"Little Huai, did Young Master Yan bring you back again?"
