Chapter 687: Chapter 687: He Really Said It!

"Could you please describe in detail what exactly happened last night?"

Tang Yuchen looked at An Ruo, her heart suddenly leaping to her throat.

That’s enough, he just wants her to agree!

Is it not enough that she agrees!

As An Ruo was about to speak her agreement, he spoke before her, "That is my own business, and I do not intend to tell anyone."

He... actually didn’t say it...

A flash of surprise crossed An Ruo’s face, her heart settled somewhat, and she sat down again, deciding to wait and see how things would unfold.

Mo Hua and the others were also surprised by his response.

"Mr. Tang, someone shot at you; this is no small matter. The perpetrator could very well endanger your life, and for the sake of your personal safety and maintaining public order, it is crucial that you recount last night’s events," Mo Hua said earnestly.

Tang Yuchen hooked a corner of his lips and coldly chuckled, "Isn’t it enough that I decide not to pursue this matter?"

"This case is criminal, and even if you do not pursue it, the Public Security Bureau will," they replied.

An Ruo was stunned, not expecting such a response. No wonder Tang Yuchen said he would not pursue it; others still would.

So that was what it meant.

Tang Yuchen, wanting no more pointless talk with them, looked towards An Ruo and asked her again, "The request I made just now, will you agree to it?"

"I..." An Ruo instinctively looked up, meeting Mo Hua’s probing eyes.

Her heart grew more frantic and guilty; what would he think if he knew what Tang Yuchen had asked?

Moreover, she couldn’t possibly agree to Tang Yuchen’s request. She was already with Mo Hua now, and she couldn’t just ignore everything else.

Tang Yuchen seemed to see through her inner turmoil, his lips slightly pursed, his half-lowered eyelids hiding the gloom in his eyes.

An Ruo said softly, "I’m sorry, I can’t agree to your request."

"Is that so?" he casually curved up the corner of his mouth, showing little emotion.

Suddenly, Mo Hua asked again, "Mr. Tang, even if you decide not to pursue the perpetrator’s responsibility, could you at least tell us the name of the assailant?"

An Ruo tensed up again.

Tang Yuchen could easily state Xiao Ji’s name since it would not break his agreement with Xiao Ji.

He had just said he would not pursue what happened last night. She thought hopefully that perhaps he wouldn’t reveal Xiao Ji’s name.

Tang Yuchen said indifferently, "An Ji."

Boom—

An Ruo’s eyes widened in disbelief as she stared at him.

He actually said it, he really did!

"I agree to your request!" the words burst out of her mouth, her tone very firm.

"I agree to your earlier request!"

Mo Hua, ever so sharp, immediately understood the implication.

He sharply questioned, "Are you saying, the assailant was An Ji?!"

"It wasn’t Xiao Ji!" An Ruo sharply contradicted him, realizing she had let her emotions get the better of her, she avoided his astonished expression and shifted her gaze to Tang Yuchen.

"I agree to your request, do you still accept it?" she asked him anxiously.

Tang Yuchen’s eyes suddenly softened, tinged with a bit of pity. She was always like this, sacrificing herself for others.

Actually, he was such a bastard, wasn’t he just capitalizing on her kindness?

Yet, he really wanted her to stay by his side, so being mean was something he had no regrets about.

"Really, you shouldn’t interrupt me so quickly," he said to her with a gentle smile, "I didn’t mean to say the assailant was An Ji.
