The beautiful CEO falls in love with me

Chapter 772: Chapter 748:

Zhang Bufen actually tried to use Li Ruo to coerce Ye Chen and even attempted to rape Li Ruo in front of Ye Chen. At that time, Li Ruo’s mental state completely broke down, and her emotions were greatly stimulated because of it. Now, she could finally cry her heart out in the arms of the man she liked. Such an opportunity had come far too late. Moreover, for this, Ye Chen had paid a heavy price.

"Xiao Ruo, don’t cry," Ye Chen whispered to comfort her.

At this point, Ye Chen had regained his clarity. The pain brought on by the strange mutation caused his entire body to ache unbearably. Because of the violent force, the crazy energy made Ye Chen’s ordinary body endure too much pain. This forced Ye Chen to consider going to the Ancient Lava Cave to temper his body. He had to strengthen his body, otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to withstand the side effects brought on by such energy.

"Don’t cry, I won’t!" Li Ruo hastily wiped her tears and sniffled as she said, "Ye Chen, can you promise me something?"

"Of course I can. Not just one, I’d be willing to promise you a hundred, a thousand!" Ye Chen nodded.

"Next time I’m in danger, please don’t risk your life for me again!" Li Ruo looked deeply into Ye Chen’s eyes and said, "That will only make me more upset, more heartbroken. I’ll think that I’m too useless, always causing you to nearly lose your life! So, please promise me this!"

"No, I can agree to all your requests, except this one!" Ye Chen shook his head immediately.

"You liar!" Li Ruo hysterically cursed. "You said you would agree to anything I ask, but why won’t you agree to this one?"

Li Ruo threw herself onto Ye Chen and then bit down hard on his shoulder. Ye Chen gasped in pain as her bite left a row of teeth marks on his shoulder. Li Ruo suddenly noticed the teeth marks on Ye Chen’s shoulder and asked, "Who bit this?"

Ye Chen froze, touched the row of bite wounds near his neck, and then he remembered that it was when he was having a secret affair with Dian Ling in the prison office. Ye Chen sniffed, groaned, and began to pretend to be uncomfortable. Shit, if he didn’t find a way out at this moment, and Li Ruo insisted on getting to the bottom of it, he was afraid he would be exposed. Seeing Ye Chen in discomfort, Li Ruo quickly asked, "Ye Chen, what’s wrong with you?"

"I... I’m uncomfortable!" Ye Chen said with his eyes closed. Li Ruo frantically felt around his body, hoping to find the source of Ye Chen’s discomfort, but she couldn’t find it. Ye Chen coughed and said, "Xiao Ruo, don’t worry, it’s nothing serious!"

"Stop talking!" Li Ruo glared at him and wiped away her tears.

Ye Chen sneakily opened one eye and saw Li Ruo was busy. She poured some hot water and then prepared to use a towel to wipe Ye Chen’s body. The bloodstains on Ye Chen’s body had not been completely cleaned off.

Li Ruo was very meticulous and attentive with her tasks, leaving Ye Chen’s body spotlessly clean. However, as she wiped down his lower body, that thing started to swell unexpectedly, from the thickness of two fingers it expanded to the thickness of five, and then kept stretching... stretching...

"Xiao Ruo, fire off a shot for me!" Ye Chen chuckled.

"Hmph, you jerk, you’re still not forgetting to do bad things even like this?" Li Ruo grabbed Ye Chen’s naughty thing and pinched hard, not expecting that this would not punish Ye Chen, but rather made it swell instantly. This caught Li Ruo off guard as she stared in shock at Ye Chen’s naughty thing, saying, "You... you grew bigger?"

"Heh heh, of course it’ll grow bigger, otherwise how would I be able to save so many innocent girls in the world?" Ye Chen grinned.

"So you say? Then how many more girls do you plan to save?" Li Ruo leaned in with an evil smile on her lips, her eyes glancing at the scalpel set aside. Ye Chen suddenly felt a chill down his back, and the huge python also began to relax slowly. Ye Chen swallowed hard and said, "No... nothing like that. What do those girls in dire straits have to do with me?"

"Humph humph!" Li Ruo gave a light snort and then walked out carrying the basin of water.

"Phew..." Ye Chen exhaled a heavy breath and said, "That was close, I almost got snipped. Women are fiercer than tigers!"

After Ye Chen came to his senses, his body felt a lot better at first glance of Li Ruo. During the subsequent recovery period, Ye Chen’s body was gradually healing. Li Ruo was with Ye Chen every day at the He Chuanliu Villa. Life was actually quite leisurely.

In Japan, a thorough investigation had been carried out, and everything seemed to be progressing in an orderly manner. Under the immense pressure from Nangong Shantai, the Japan Intelligence Bureau conducted a secret investigation. Following the clues left by the black-clothed men, they finally uncovered a trace. However, this tiny bit of information left the intelligence personnel dumbfounded, because these black-clothed men all belonged to the Hechuan Liu Family.

The Hechuan Liu Family in Japan was considered a major clan, possessing ancient history. They owned vast family assets and, on Japan’s wealth rankings, the Clan Leader of the Hechuan Liu Family was prominently listed. Moreover, the Hechuan Liu Family had several members serving as lawmakers in the Japanese Congress. To openly move against the Hechuan Liu Family would be tantamount to opposing the lawmakers themselves.

The intelligence personnel immediately reported this information, and upon receiving the message, Miyazaki Yama issued an order for the Self-Defense Force stationed in the suburbs of Tokyo to mobilize once again. This time, they went so far as to surround the Hechuan Liu Family’s compound.

The Hechuan Liu Family naturally had their own intelligence department and, given their connections within the government, it was easy for them to stay informed. With such a significant event occurring, how could the Hechuan Liu Family possibly be left in the dark? Upon receiving the news, the Hechuan Liu Family quickly passed the message to Ye Chen. Ye Chen, receiving the news, resolutely issued a retreat order.

"Iga, it seems you may have trouble in the future!" Ye Chen said, looking at the Hechuan Liu Family’s Clan Leader.

"Clan Leader, rest assured, I’ll handle it carefully!" The Iga Clan Leader replied with a faint smile, "Our Hechuan Liu Family is so influential and wealthy in Japan; if they don’t find any clues here, they will likely not dare to do anything to us!"

"That’s good!" Ye Chen nodded.

Afterward, under the arrangements of the Iga Clan Leader, Ye Chen and Li Ruo, along with others, left Tokyo, headed to Tokyo Port, and boarded a ship from the Hechuan Liu Family to leave Tokyo and Japan, towards China’s Shanghai.

At night, the stars were scarce and the moon shone bright. Ye Chen stood on the deck of the ship, a cigarette dangling from his mouth. He took a deep drag and then exhaled a thick plume of smoke. In the darkness, the lit cigarette blinked like a beacon of light.

"It’s cold at sea during the night. Put on this coat," Li Ruo said as she walked out from the cabin, seeing Ye Chen standing alone on the deck. She immediately turned back, took a coat from inside the cabin, and draped it over Ye Chen.

"Thank you, Xiao Ruo," Ye Chen said with a faint smile.

"Why are you thanking me?" Li Ruo glared at Ye Chen and said, "You’ve saved me so many times, I haven’t even thanked you. If we’re talking about gratitude, I’m afraid giving myself to you still couldn’t express my thanks!"

"Heh!" Ye Chen chuckled, then tossed the cigarette butt into the sea, saying with a smile, "Xiao Ruo, my love for you doesn’t need anything in return to show my gratitude, understand?"

"Hmm!" Li Ruo nodded and then snuggled into Ye Chen’s embrace. Ye Chen held Li Ruo as if holding a precious treasure. He loved Li Ruo, deeply cherishing this endearing woman.

A breeze swept by, tousling Ye Chen’s hair and opening the gates of Li Ruo’s heart. Li Ruo held onto Ye Chen tightly. Ye Chen adjusted the coat and wrapped Li Ruo within it, fearful that she might catch a cold.

The Self-Defense Force had surrounded the Hechuan Liu Family’s residence, but they did not attack. After all, the person in charge lacked the courage to search the Hechuan Liu Family. The Hechuan Liu Family was an ancient clan in Japan, its existence only slightly younger than the Rothschild family. Since the Civil Governance Renovation, the Hechuan Liu Family had stood firmly on Japanese soil, becoming a formidable power after Japan’s Civil Governance Renovation. At the same time, they injected a stimulant into Japan’s economy.

"Team leader, why don’t we search the place?" a curious soldier asked.

"Shit, if you’re so brave, you go!" The team leader glared at the soldier and said, "Don’t you realize where we are? Is the Hechuan Liu Family someone you can mess with?"

"Yes, yes!" The soldier immediately nodded. No one knew that this team leader was actually one of the Hechuan Liu Family’s own. A part of the extensive system of the Hechuan Liu Family, he was oddly placed in charge of surrounding his own family.

Every disciple within the Hechuan Liu Family carried an absolute loyalty towards their clan. Even if they joined the government or military, they bore significant responsibilities towards their family. Though their jobs might conflict with family interests, it did not mean their loyalty wavered.

"So... what do we do now? Just surrounding them without attacking won’t do!" The soldier reminded with good intentions.

"I understand better than you do!" The team leader glared at him and said, "I’m already thinking of a plan, aren’t I?"
