"Are you saying you can help me escape? Can you?"

"Nope!"

"..."

Yu was speechless for a moment. She really wanted to swear but being a girl, no matter how angry she was, she couldn't bring herself to do it. Besides, she couldn't afford to anger this guy right now.

"Hmph, then why did you say you'd help me?" Yu found it strange. It seemed like she said more words in her life just now than she ever had.

You have to know that whenever she was on a mission before, she almost never said a word. But now, here she was, endlessly talking with this man.

"Oh, I'm helping you, but it doesn't mean I'll let you escape. After all, you're here to kill me. How can I be sure you won't come again? I'm not stupid," Chen Tianlong said calmly.

"You..." Yu was furious, realizing she had been tricked.

But when she thought about it, given her situation, she was indeed at a disadvantage. She took a deep breath and said, "Then I promise not to kill you in the future!"

Compared to the Lao Family, she still held some prestige. A failed mission would only earn her a scolding, but if the police caught her this time, she was doomed.

"Are you sure?"

"I'm sure. As a fellow assassin, you should know that although we're ruthless, once we promise something, we never break our word."

"Okay, I agree. But later you'll have to cooperate with me," Chen Tianlong said with a mischievous smile.

Seeing Chen Tianlong's lewd expression, Yu felt a chill in her heart, unsure of what this guy intended to do. However, compared to being caught, she chose to cooperate.

Three minutes later, the door opened, and Chen Tianlong walked out holding Yu's hand. At this moment, more than a dozen people were gathered at the door, all pointing guns.

"Oh my, what's everyone doing here?" Chen Tianlong addressed the crowd.

At this time, everyone was dumbfounded, and Li Bingshuang walked up in her high heels, looking stunned at the sight of Chen Tianlong and a strange beautiful woman.

Wasn't there supposed to be danger before? How did a beautiful woman suddenly appear?

Looking at this sexy beauty, the officers' eyes widened, and they drooled.

"Chen Tianlong, you are..."

"Hehe, Bingshuang, we misunderstood. Turns out the person who entered the room earlier was my cousin, who came with me to the Capital City for fun. She's usually mischievous and always does unexpected things, not following the usual path."

At this point, Chen Tianlong deliberately gave Li Bingshuang a look, and she paused, then understood. It was clear Chen Tianlong was helping this woman. Who knows what really happened.

"Sorry everyone, it might have been a misunderstanding. It was Chen Tianlong's cousin playing a prank," Li Bingshuang said with a wry smile. The excuse was a bit far-fetched, but since it was Chen Tianlong's idea, she went along with it.

The police and security guards, after hearing Li Bingshuang, shook their heads and dispersed.

They wouldn't dare get angry. After all, he was the chairman of Baiyun Group. If there was an issue, they'd worry, but when there wasn't, they could be happy about it.

A few minutes later, after the people had left, Li Bingshuang was about to step forward but saw Yu quickly change from a bitter smile to an extremely cold face.

"Please remember you promised me, and I won't ask who's behind you. I hope you won't trouble me in the future," Chen Tianlong let go of Yu's small hand, warned her, and then pulled Li Bingshuang into the room.

Yu took a deep breath and walked straight out the door.

Along the way, the security guards shook their heads, thinking this cousin was too fond of pranks. But they acknowledged her beauty and sexy attire did attract a lot of heated gazes from the guards.

For the first time, Yu was stared at by men like that. Although furious inside, she couldn't cause a scene and could only leave quickly.

"Chen Tianlong, explain why you helped that woman?" After Yu left, Li Bingshuang glared at Chen Tianlong and asked.

"I was afraid she'd retaliate!" Chen Tianlong replied succinctly.

In truth, that wasn't the reason. Being assassins, they all had their own hardships. No one is born wanting to undergo special training and live a life worse than death.

That woman looked very young. If life hadn't forced her, she probably wouldn't have walked down the path of an assassin.

It was a sense of camaraderie between peers.

"Alright, fine. Just let her go." Li Bingshuang wasn't one to get tangled up in things. She was laid-back about many things, and her expression suddenly softened as she slowly cuddled up to Chen Tianlong.

"Chen Tianlong, when will you marry me? Half a year is so long. Can it be a little earlier?" Li Bingshuang recalled Chen Tianlong's promise for a year later.

Hearing this, Chen Tianlong got a headache. Marrying wasn't what he wanted. Wu Mengting already made him feel at a loss, and now it was Li Bingshuang's turn.

Recalling that day in the park and what Li Bingshuang had said, Chen Tianlong didn't dare to directly refuse. It would break Li Bingshuang's heart. If she really became so obsessed and did something foolish, it would be disastrous.

"Well, it's still a long time until then. Let's talk about it later," Chen Tianlong tried to evade the topic.

This matter really troubled him. After all, it was unexpected — or perhaps more accurately, it was fate.

"Alright, Chen Tianlong... can you stay with me tonight?" Li Bingshuang became so gentle that Chen Tianlong's heart almost melted. He never expected the usually cold and aloof CEO to have such a gentle side.

"Okay!"

Chen Tianlong couldn't refuse, nor could he say no. He had promised her, and going back on his word wasn't like him.

That night, Li Bingshuang fell asleep soundly in Chen Tianlong's embrace.

Of course, there were some intimate moments before sleep, but they weren't the focus. After all, Wu Mengting was Chen Tianlong's true love.

With the affair complete, Chen Tianlong couldn't linger here too long. The Capital City wasn't where he belonged. With the fourth day passed, it was time to return to Old Chen to await the start of school.

After a reluctant goodbye to Li Bingshuang, Chen Tianlong went to the hospital to visit Shen Yan's mother, then left under Shen Yan's farewell from the Capital City.

In just two or three days, Chen Tianlong experienced so much in the Capital City, thinking back it felt quite thrilling. Fortunately, this year passed with surprises but no dangers.

After returning to South Sea City, Chen Tianlong bid farewell to the eldest lady and others, then drove to Tan Tian's house.

He had promised Wu Mengting to bring her back to see Old Chen after the fourth day, given Mo Jing was also there. But this was troubling. Previously, when he brought Shen Yan home, Chen Tian had already misunderstood her as his girlfriend. Now with Wu Mengting here, would it cause another slip-up?

Feeling a bit anxious, Chen Tianlong and Wu Mengting brought some modest gifts and headed towards Lotus Village. This time, they didn't encounter any troublemakers following them, reaching the village entrance smoothly.

This time, Chen Tianlong was a bit smarter. He placed a note on the car stating: "This car belongs to a local, please don't tow it away casually!"

Seeing this, Wu Mengting covered her mouth and giggled. This Chen Tianlong was truly humorous, even driving required such antics.
