Chapter 1067: Chapter 1072: Injury

"Did I touch your wound?"

"No, and even if you did, it’s fine, come on."

Petra gazed lovingly at Yang Yi, then suddenly leaned on him, crying, "But I still can’t bear to be apart from you, I understand all the reasons, but I just can’t let go..."

"You really pressed on it this time..."

"Ah, I’m sorry."

"It’s okay, let’s finish this first."

After a long while, Petra finally got off Yang Yi, then she burst into tears.

All Yang Yi could do was say passionately: "Darling, hurry your father up to break off the engagement, I’m feeling guilty now."

"It will be soon. I’ll handle the breaking off myself. Didn’t we agree to not talk about this?"

"Sorry, I’m just anxious. Only when you’re completely free can we truly be lovers."

"Will you marry me? Promise me!"

Yang Yi became serious, then took Petra’s hand and said gravely, "I can say that I will definitely marry you, I could even swear it, but what’s the point? What use are beautiful words? My dear, please see what I will actually do, okay?"

Petra softly said: "But I don’t feel secure, I want to hear you say it yourself, don’t avoid it. Even if you’re going to leave me later on, I want to hear it now."

Getting harder to deal with.

Women, sometimes they are deceived because they allow themselves to be, even knowing they are being cheated, they accept it. If it were an ugly guy, most women wouldn’t be easily fooled.

Couldn’t help but to lie now, Yang Yi crossed two fingers, about to swear, but then felt like a complete scumbag, really.

Yang Yi released his crossed fingers and said softly: "As long as you are willing to marry me, I will certainly marry you."

Petra smiled, then whispered: "Then when can you come back? I really can’t wait too long, I can’t wait."

"If it’s quick, three months, if slow, half a year. I will definitely return to New York, I promise."

Petra sighed lightly: "Three months, it’s torturing. I will wait obediently for you, but you must be careful, you know? You shouldn’t get involved personally, you should have many people to handle things, you need to pay attention to your safety, for our future, you really must!"

Yang Yi nodded, with a determined expression: "Even for your sake, I won’t take risks anymore."

"Actually, you are already very, very wealthy, you don’t necessarily have to buy a bank. Even if we are poor, we will still be happy. Besides, my father owns a bank, and eventually, it will be our bank. So, there’s no need to strive too hard for wealth, do you think so?"

"Hmm, it’s just that some things have to be done."

Petra fell silent for a moment, then drew circles on Yang Yi’s chest with her finger and said: "Actually, I know. Every successful man has many women around him, sometimes it’s hard for a man to resist temptation. If you... do that, you don’t have to tell me, I don’t need to know, but I won’t blame you or get angry, otherwise you will gradually start to dislike me until you leave me. It happened with my dad, I know, and my mom knows, but their relationship is still good because such things are unavoidable. But while I allow physical infidelity, you absolutely cannot fall in love with another woman, okay?"

Yang Yi was overwhelmed.

"I won’t, absolutely not!"

"Then just promise me."

"I promise you, but I really won’t, dear. Do you think I’m just a man tempted by physical appearance? No, a beautiful appearance has no allure for me at all! A beautiful face along with an interesting soul and enough profound knowledge, that’s you, only you can make me fall head over heels. Otherwise, why do you think I had no other woman before you?"

Yang Yi hugged Petra and said: "So your worries are unnecessary, not to mention remind me."

Petra sighed softly, she whispered: "When are you leaving?"

"As soon as possible, although I really hate to go, but I... I’m sorry."

Petra whispered, "I understand, although it’s hard to accept. You know, what I long for is to explore a brand new world, an unknown world. There’s no place left on earth that can truly be called an adventure that fascinates me, so I can only set my sights on the universe, because the universe is full of the unknown, but..."

Looking up at Yang Yi, Petra said with deep affection, "But you have brought me into a brand new world. I don’t need to explore the universe because you are mysterious enough. You’ve opened a door to another world for me. I want to get to know you, to explore you, and the world you are familiar with."

Yang Yi whispered, "Oh, is that so."

"Yes, actually I’m really not afraid of danger..."

"My dear, I’m sorry, but this is really not possible, at least not now."

"Okay, are you still... okay?"

"Yes! Let’s do it again!"

"Once is not enough..."

Yang Yi was about to leave, Petra was heartbroken, Yang Yi was harmed.

Finally, having sent Petra away, Yang Yi watched as Petra reluctantly pushed open the room door. After listening to her footsteps fade away, Yang Yi suddenly swung his right hand and harshly slapped his own face twice.

Reggie knocked on the door, and when he came in, he could still see the handprint on Yang Yi’s face.

Reggie lowered his head and said, "She’s gone, I watched her leave."

"Hmm."

"What do we do next?"

Yang Yi took a deep breath and said, "Return to headquarters, first to headquarters."

"Boss."

"Hmm."

"Are you feeling very guilty right now?"

Yang Yi turned his head aside and said, "No, not... yes, I am feeling very guilty."

"But is this something a spy should be accustomed to?"

"No, as a spy, actually you don’t have the opportunity... to deal with these things, yes, such missions seldom occur, so you think every spy will encounter them? No, they don’t."

Reggie whispered, "I want to say you don’t have to feel guilty, after all, it’s for the mission, for the country. Personal feelings and such, uh, I’m not very good at this, but I truly believe every sacrifice is necessary, uh, I really admire you, the sacrifices you have made for the mission are too great."

Yang Yi said solemnly, "Yes, everything for the mission, everything for the country."

The guilt is overwhelming.

Reggie cautiously asked, "Can I ask one last question?"

"Don’t ask."

"Okay."

"No, go ahead and ask."

Reggie hesitated and said, "Will you see her again? I’m sorry, boss, I’m just a bit curious, you don’t have to answer."

Yang Yi sighed and whispered, "It’s best not to see her, but... I probably will have to."
