Before parting, Yi Tianran seemed to remember something, glanced back at Daniel, and said jokingly, "Thank you for your hospitality today, Mr. Daniel, and for finding so many extras. It really added a lot of fun for me. But from now on, you should focus on acting! Don't waste your energy on other things; it's just a waste of time."
After uttering these sarcastic remarks, she turned and left with a flourish.
Black Rose followed behind her, and after a moment of complicated emotion, she looked at Daniel's ashen face and silently left.
"Bang—" "Smack—"
A burst of playful noise came from the courtyard.
Daniel, his face contorted with rage, kicked one of the bodyguards in front of Arthur, cursing, "Useless!"
It's unclear whether this was directed at the bodyguard or, using the bodyguard's name, at Arthur.
"Why are you taking your anger out on others!" Arthur scoffed. "In the end, if you hadn't attracted that rotten love interest, how would you have ended up with Andrei!"
Daniel said impatiently, "You should have just killed that bastard a long time ago."
“What do you know? Andrei’s family isn’t so easy to deal with. If someone really dies, things will get out of control.” Arthur’s expression revealed a hint of helplessness.
He had already come up with a plan.
Andrei had to die, but he absolutely couldn't die on the Mafia family's territory, so he secretly issued a bounty to a bounty hunter, planning to send Andrei to his girlfriend tonight, then stage a crime of passion, and that would be the end of it.
As a result, a surprise attack came out of nowhere.
He had already decided to kill, but the other party was one step ahead. There are always people more capable than you, and there's always something beyond your understanding!
Daniel's face darkened, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "Damn it! That woman, I absolutely have to have her!"
Arthur: "..."
If only his younger brother could stop being obsessed with women and become more mature and successful someday.
...
Black Rose had already left quietly after leaving the Mafia family headquarters.
"Not even a goodbye. We've run into each other twice. How cold!" Yi Tianran muttered to herself.
“Um…” Andrei, who had been dragged out by her, raised his head with difficulty, “Actually, there’s a question I wanted to ask earlier.”
Yi Tianran: "Ask away."
Andrei: "I'm really curious. I haven't revealed a single secret about the Mafia family to you, so why did you say those things with such certainty?"
Yi Tianran said matter-of-factly, "When you go out, all you have to do is talk, so of course you have to make things up!"
"Huh?" Andrei's brain froze for a moment.
Yi Tianran asked him, amused, "If I hadn't said that, would he have let us leave?"
Andrei said incredulously, "So, you relied on gambling from beginning to end? What if the other party became suspicious, what if you lost the bet..."
Wouldn't their lives be completely lost in there?
Yi Tianran smiled confidently, her eyes crinkling with delight, and said, "Don't worry, I'm pretty lucky at gambling."
Andrei: "..."
This woman is incredibly audacious!
Thinking back on everything that had just happened, he still felt lingering fear. If Yi Tianran hadn't been dragging him along, he probably would have already fainted.
Yi Tianran almost burst out laughing when she saw his cowardly appearance.
Soon after, a low, cold voice sounded in the earpiece: "So, you're gambling with your life."
"!!!" Yi Tianran was startled, and she threw Andre aside, her whole body tense up. "Mr. Fu, how is it you?"
"Mommy, I'm sorry, Daddy overheard our conversation." Huaihuai's apologetic voice came through.
Yi Tianran: "..." This was way too unexpected.
"Yi Tianran, what did you promise me?" Fu Yunchen's distinctive deep voice came from the earphone, carrying a strong sense of danger.
Yi Tianran's heart skipped a beat. She took a few steps forward and said obsequiously, "Of course I remember. Never put yourself in a dangerous situation. I always regard Mr. Fu's words as gospel. I was just bragging to someone earlier. In fact, I had already had Geng Geng and the others infiltrate the Mafia family's system and investigate some of their family's secrets. If they suspect that I want to take action against me, I will immediately reveal the important information, and they will definitely not make things difficult for me."
So, she didn't just make it all up! She did have some preparation.
Fu Yunchen's tone remained chillingly cold, "Have you considered the possibility that they might hurt you in a fit of anger?"
The thought of Yi Tianran being injured somewhere he didn't know made his heart feel like it was being squeezed by a hand, causing him unbearable pain.
"No, he won't." Yi Tianran awkwardly touched her nose. "I did my research beforehand. The eldest son of the Mafia family is calm and rational, and always puts the family's interests first, so he will definitely let me go."
Fu Yunchen pressed on in a deep voice, "Can you guarantee that he will let you go 100% without any accidents along the way?"
Yi Tianran: "..."
Looks like this anger isn't going to subside!
"Mr. Fu, I was wrong." Now that things had come to this, all she could do was play the innocent card. "Next time, unless there's a 100% chance of getting away, I definitely won't take any risks, okay?"
They say it all so sincerely, but when it comes to actually doing it, it's a completely different story.
Ultimately, this is simply her true nature.
Free-spirited, adventurous, and thrill-seeking—otherwise, why would she become a detective?
But now, she feels a deep sense of reluctance and longing.
Tender words slipped out unconsciously: "I have you, Geng Geng, Huai Huai, and Xiao Mao Tuan now. How could I bear to let anything happen to me, right?"
Fu Yunchen's heart was filled with turmoil, and his expression softened unconsciously. "No matter where you are or what danger you encounter in the future, I will rush to your side. So until then, you have to wait for me."
A radiant smile unconsciously appeared on Yi Tianran's face. "Okay, I promise you."
After the call ended, Yi Tianran was in a great mood. When she turned around, she saw... Andrei lying on the ground like a dead dog.
"What are you doing?" Yi Tianran asked in surprise.
Andrei chuckled, "When a dog dies, no couple is innocent."
She's all smiles, clearly talking to her lover on the phone. Does anyone even care about the feelings of someone who was recently cheated on?
Yi Tianran: "..."
She was too lazy to explain her relationship with Fu Yunchen to someone she didn't know well, so she simply went up again and dragged him home.
The moment she stepped inside, a palm strike aimed at her face. "Stop! Who gave you permission to touch my man!"
Yi Tianran instinctively dodged and ruthlessly kicked the woman away.
"Ouch!" The woman fell face-first into the dirt, and after a long while, she suddenly sat up, clutching her stomach and crying out in pain, "Ouch, my stomach—"
