Li Ruo reeked of alcohol, her cheeks flushed red like two ruddy apples.
Ye Chen shook his head helplessly and said, “Why must you be so foolish, dear?”
“For money!” Li Ruo slowly opened her eyes, filled with sorrow.
She lay comfortably in Ye Chen’s arms, her head gently resting on his shoulder, and then she sighed, “If it weren’t for that project in the Northern City District, I wouldn’t have sold my charm.
Ah…”
Ye Chen immediately fell silent; indeed, he had to be.
Facing the woman he loved selling her charm to raise funds, and being unable to help her in any way, deeply stung Ye Chen’s nerves.
As a man with amnesia, as a man almost a pauper, how could he assist Li Ruo?
Ye Chen felt strong in spirit but weak in capacity.
“What can I help you with?” Ye Chen’s dark, clear eyes earnestly gazed at Li Ruo.
“What can you help me with?” Li Ruo was stunned and then, with a smile, said, “You can help a lot.
You can make me happy, be my faithful slave, and help me successfully complete this project in the Northern City District!”
“But, I feel these aren’t enough,” Ye Chen shook his head.
“What do you think you can help with then?” asked Li Ruo with a faint smile.
“Do you have money?
You don’t.
Do you have power?
You don’t, either!”
“Yeah, I’m just a powerless and penniless ordinary person!” Ye Chen smiled faintly and said, “But I have a heart firm and unwavering.
I’m willing to protect you all my life, to offer my safe haven to you unconditionally!”
Li Ruo sniffled, tears budding in her dark eyes.
She was moved by Ye Chen’s words.
Having been hurt severely, having been abandoned cruelly, when she encountered love again, even Li Ruo felt a bit stirred.
Yes, she had felt something for Ye Chen countless times, but every time she recalled that event, she would close off her heart again.
“Hmpf, who cares for that!” Li Ruo snorted, yet tears streamed down her face.
Indeed, who cares, only she cared.
Li Ruo pursed her red lips, feeling genuinely happy and sweet inside.
Who could understand her heart?
Could Ye Chen?
She turned her head to look at Ye Chen’s handsome face, his resolute features, and those deep, dark eyes, and she became intoxicated.
Ye Chen smiled gently; he understood Li Ruo’s heart.
He gently held her and placed her in the passenger seat of the Oto car.
“I drove here!” Li Ruo gently reminded him.
“No worries, I’m willing to be your driver for life!” Ye Chen flashed a smile, his white teeth making for a particularly comforting view.
“No…” Li Ruo gently shook her head.
“What do you want…?” Ye Chen was puzzled.
“I want you to be my slave for life!” Li Ruo said with a smile, somewhat tipsy but always feeling surrounded by happiness.
She liked this feeling: no pressure from work, no burden from career.
Being with Ye Chen always brought her a sense of dependence.
“That won’t do!” Ye Chen immediately shook his head and said, “Being a slave is too miserable, I need to reconsider!”
“Hmph, you are already my slave!” Li Ruo snorted, her eyebrows raised and she said sternly, “Are you thinking of going back on your word?!”
“I certainly am not!” Ye Chen started the Oto car, executed a sharp drift, and laughed, “This slave can always terminate the contract, but if you ask me to be your slave for life, doesn’t that mean I’ll never have a chance to turn things around?”
“That won’t happen!” Li Ruo curled a smile, her eyes crescent-like, resembling a slice of moon in the sky, she laughed, “Haven’t you heard the saying?
Where there is oppression, there is resistance; if I oppress you, then you can resist!”
“The cost is too high!” Ye Chen immediately shook his head and said, “Hold tight, I need to get going!”
Subsequently, Ye Chen immediately sped off.
A sudden burst of acceleration made Li Ruo yelp.
In the wee hours, with few cars and people around, Ye Chen pressed the accelerator hard, and Li Ruo felt a surge of crazy power from up ahead.
“Wow, when did your car become so powerful?” Li Ruo did not know that Ye Chen’s little Oto had been modified, so she was quite surprised.
She had experienced this old clunker before; driving at thirty or forty kilometers per hour was fine, but once it hit sixty, the rear began to emit thick smoke and even produced intense shaking noises.
“Hehe, modified it.
Remember the Formula One engine I won from Li Hao?
Installed it right here!” Ye Chen revealed a mischievous smile and said, “The car underwent major modifications, many parts were replaced, and some were even custom-made on the spot.”
“My god, if the traffic police catch you, then you’re doomed!” Li Ruo immediately covered her mouth and laughed.
“They’d have to catch me first!” Ye Chen laughed heartily.
“Bad boy!” Li Ruo snorted lightly and said, “Take me to the Shanhai Villa.”
“Where is your home?” Ye Chen asked curiously.
“Um!” Li Ruo nodded.
She had never told Ye Chen where her home was before, but this time, she took the initiative to tell him and even asked him to take her home.
Ye Chen smiled, didn’t ask further, turned the steering wheel, and immediately sped off to the left.
Shanhai Villa is a high-class villa area in Jianghuai City, known as the Pearl City of Jianghuai.
On the way, the two didn’t talk.
Ye Chen focused on driving, moving quickly, and in the blink of an eye, they had arrived at Shanhai Villa.
The gatekeepers at Shanhai Villa were armed with live ammunition to protect the wealthy residents and were qualified gun holders employed as bodyguards.
It was clear that the people living here were highly privileged.
The Oto car stopped at the entrance, and the guards immediately came forward to interrogate, but when they saw Li Ruo, they immediately stepped back and opened the gate.
“Would you like to come in and sit for a while?” Li Ruo asked with a smile.
Ye Chen really wanted to go in and see what Li Ruo’s boudoir looked like, perhaps to see some personal lingerie.
However, he forcibly suppressed the thought, shook his head gently, and said, “It’s late, and it’s inconvenient for me to come in, also, I didn’t bring any gifts for your dad, so I’d better not go in!”
“Alright, then I’ll get off here!” Li Ruo smiled faintly, then opened the car door and waved at Ye Chen.
The two beams of the Oto car illuminated the path Li Ruo walked on.
Though there were advanced solar street lamps, Ye Chen insisted on lighting her path.
Intentionally, Li Ruo walked where the headlights shone, striding like she was on a staircase fashion stage.
Not until Li Ruo disappeared around the corner did Ye Chen start the car and slowly drive away.
By the time he got home, it was already eleven at night.
After washing up, he immediately crawled into bed.
It was a bit chilly at night, and he wondered how Momo was doing in the hospital.
Whether she had a bed to sleep in?
Drifting into sleep, Ye Chen fell asleep hazily.
The next morning, Ye Chen woke up and hurried to the hospital, bringing along some breakfast.
But when he arrived at the hospital, the room was already crowded with a group of men and women.
“Ye Chen, you’re here?” Li Wen spotted Ye Chen immediately.
“Oh, Li Wen, have you all…
come to see Mrs.
Liu?” Ye Chen asked with a smile.
“Yes, this time Chen Shuai led us all here,” Li Wen immediately responded with a laugh.
Holding a bag of bread bought from a bakery and fresh milk, Ye Chen entered but saw Chen Shuai eagerly feeding Momo wontons, saying as he fed her, “Momo, these are wontons personally made by my mom, eat them while they’re hot!”
“Chen Shuai, just put them there, I’ll eat when I’m hungry,” Momo said, her face slightly red and even somewhat displeased.
A few of the guys and girls around chuckled and said, “Momo, look how much Chen Shuai cares about you.
I think whoever marries Chen Shuai is indeed fortunate.
Not only is he a student union president, but his parents are also business people, his family is wealthy, and I heard they bought a set of over 100 square meters at Jiangnan No.1.
That must cost quite a lot…”
The continuous chatter made Mrs.
Liu find it hard to listen, let alone Momo.
But everyone came to see her mother; she couldn’t very well get angry and chase them out.
So, Momo had to grin and bear it, just coping with them.
Clearing the crowd, Ye Chen walked in, holding the bread and milk, and smiled, “Momo, have you had breakfast yet?”
“Brother Chen, you’re here!” Momo’s eyes clearly showed surprise; she hurriedly shook her head and said, “I…
I haven’t eaten yet!”
“I brought you some; do you like it?” Ye Chen immediately handed over the bread and milk.
“Thank you, Brother Chen, I like it!” Momo nodded right away.
Mrs.
Liu wasn’t polite before; when someone’s child brought wontons, she had to eat them, so she ate a bowl of Chen Shuai’s wontons right away.
As for Momo, she adamantly refused to eat.
It wasn’t that she didn’t want to eat, but Chen Shuai was too enthusiastic, insisting on feeding her himself, which annoyed Momo.
“Hurry and eat, and I’ll take you to school afterward,” Ye Chen said with a smile.
“What about mom?” Momo was startled.
“I’m fine!” Mrs.
Liu quickly shook her head and said, “Aunt Zhang is here to chat with me.
Don’t worry about your studies; let Xiao Ye take you to school later.
I’ll be discharged in a few days, don’t worry about me!”
“Alright!” Momo nodded reluctantly.
