“I have absolutely no affair with Mr. Daniel. You saw what happened that night. I didn’t give him a second glance from beginning to end.”
Between words, Yi Tianran quickly glanced around at her surroundings out of the corner of her eye.
Sitting idly by and waiting for death is not in her nature. Right now, she needs to talk to stall Kasha and buy herself time to turn the tables.
Kasha, however, didn't buy it at all. "Who knows if you were just playing hard to get? I've seen that trick many times before."
"..." Yi Tianran couldn't help but raise an eyebrow; this young lady was really not easy to deal with.
“He’s not my type at all! Neither his looks nor his personality. I’m actually quite traditional at heart and only like Chinese men.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Fu Yunchen's face involuntarily flashed through Yi Tianran's mind.
Kasha gave her a cold look. "You think I'd believe that?"
Yi Tianran said with deep affection, "It's true! In fact, I already have someone I love. I am devoted to him and will never waver. I want to be with him even in the next life. My heart will never change until death."
Kasha immediately applauded her: "Your acting is really good. If I hadn't already seen it with Jack, I might have believed it."
Yi Tianran was afraid that she might accidentally activate the remote control button in her hand.
A bead of non-existent cold sweat seemed to fall from my forehead.
Yi Tianran thought and thought, then suddenly raised three fingers and declared, "I swear, if I ever fall for Daniel, may I die a horrible death! May I never be reborn as a human again!"
Unfortunately, Kaisa remained unmoved and instead said calmly, "There's no need to wait for eternity. I'll send you to the underworld right now."
The moment she finished speaking, the door to the secret passage was kicked open with a loud bang.
A tall, slender figure swiftly appeared before Yi Tianran, pulling her firmly into his arms.
"You..." Yi Tianran looked up in surprise, her expression complicated as she gazed at Fu Yunchen's face so close to hers, her voice trembling slightly, a tremor she herself didn't even notice: "Why are you here?"
"I told you, no matter what danger you encounter, I will rush to your side." Fu Yunchen lowered his eyes, gazing tenderly at the woman he hadn't seen for months, and softly asked her, "Are you afraid?"
At that moment, Yi Tianran felt relieved, and a bright smile unconsciously appeared on her lips. "With you here, what do I have to be afraid of?"
It turns out that having the person she trusts most by her side during the most dangerous time brings her such a sense of security.
"Ahem..." Kaisa, who had been inexplicably fed a mouthful of dog food, couldn't help but clear her throat to remind herself of her presence.
Is this woman fearless or just incredibly oblivious?
Even though I had already threatened her with the remote control, she still managed to show off her affection right under my nose.
Yi Tianran smiled and looked up, grabbing Fu Yunchen's arm. Her expression was bright and charming. "Miss Kasha, you've seen it now. My man is so amazing, how could I possibly be interested in Daniel?"
She thought her words wouldn't sway him, but to her surprise, Kasha said unexpectedly, "I admit, your man is indeed very outstanding. He knew there was an ambush here, yet he dared to break in without any defensive equipment. I've lost."
Yi Tianran's heart trembled as she thought of Fu Yunchen's willingness to put himself in danger for her sake, and a warm current surged from her chest to her limbs.
This man was even better than she had imagined.
Despite being moved inside, Yi Tianran didn't show it on her face.
Instead, he laughed nonchalantly and said, "Miss Kasha, you never really intended to kill me in the first place, did you?"
Kasha's blue eyes narrowed slightly, her tone icy: "What did you say?"
Yi Tianran said with a smile, "If you really hate me that much, you could have activated the button the moment I entered the dark room. By then, I would have been dead long ago. But you didn't do that. Instead, you used this projection method to talk to me face to face and said so much. I think you were just trying to test me, right?"
"You think I won't kill you? Even if I have a remote control button in my hand that can take your life at any time?" Kasha seemed to think she was too naive.
Yi Tianran said calmly, "That button, it's fake, isn't it?"
“You…” This time, a clear look of surprise flashed across Kasha’s eyes, which did not escape Yi Tianran’s notice.
She knew she had answered correctly.
In fact, when she realized she had been ambushed, she had already used her earpiece to transmit Morse code to the little furballs to investigate. Based on her description, they infiltrated the system in the room where Kasha was and confirmed that the remote control button was just a toy.
Therefore, the firearms are also fake.
Over the years, she has become a seasoned veteran. Even in the most dangerous moments, she can remain calm, analyze information that is in her favor, and then turn defeat into victory!
However, the only unexpected thing this time was the arrival of Fu Yunchen.
This man is always so unpredictable.
“As expected of an internationally renowned detective, Cloud.” Kassa’s gaze fell on her with a complicated expression, her demeanor still as arrogant as ever: “You should be glad that you didn’t covet my fiancé, which is why I spared your life.”
Yi Tianran didn't take her threat to heart. Instead, she smiled and said, "Miss Kasha, you are a rare opponent who can create a crisis for me and make me feel that we are evenly matched. I admire your ability. If there is an opportunity, I would like to make friends with you."
This is the truth.
She had seen too many women who were clearly very capable, but once they were with a man, they would become love-struck, go crazy with jealousy, and stop at nothing to get that love.
For example, Lu Xuanyi.
But Kasha gave her a very different feeling. From the time she met her until the brief conversation just now, she could see the innate arrogance in the other person, but she did not feel the slightest bit of malice twisted by jealousy.
This personality trait made her like him even more.
Kasha scoffed, saying meaningfully, "You really are a... arrogant woman."
As soon as he finished speaking, the holographic projection stopped completely.
Yi Tianran tilted her head in confusion and looked at Fu Yunchen beside her. "Am I arrogant?"
Fu Yunchen reached out and cupped her cheeks, his deep voice booming, "You're beautiful no matter what you look like."
Yi Tianran: "..." This guy is completely irrelevant to the question!
But then again, "Mr. Fu, how did you arrive so timely? It's as if you knew I was in danger. Could it be that you conspired with the enemy to stage a hero-saves-the-damsel-in-distress act?"
She asked with a playful expression.
Fu Yunchen asked meaningfully, "What if I said yes?"
Yi Tianran smiled and reached out to grasp his hand, rubbing it against her palm. "If so, I must say you were very successful, a perfect score! I'm very pleased."
Fu Yunchen chuckled, a fierce and intense heat flashing in his eyes, and he was about to lower his head to kiss him.
Just then—
