81 Promise Me

Wang Yong and Zhi Ruo happily headed back to the hotel and prepared to leave for the casino. At exactly 8 pm, they got in the car and headed to the casino. They were both not that hungry as they had eaten a lot of popcorn so they decided to eat later.

" Who exactly are you searching for? " Zhi Ruo inquired while they were in the car.

" My friend Leon Kings. I need help to retaliate against the people that hurt me and he can help me. " Wang Yong didn't hide anything and directly told her the truth.

" Do you already know who did it? " Zhi Ruo asked.

" I have a few leads, once I regain my memory back, I should be good. " Wang Yong answered.

" I see... " Zhi Ruo pondered for a while before coming to a conclusion. ' He is probably in the mafia too huh? '

' A few connections...more like the underground world's important bosses! ' Zhi Ruo knew for a fact that people associated with the big boss must definitely not be simple as the big boss was a very resourceful person that had a solution to everything.

Zhi Ruo sighed, ' Isn't everyone around me a bit too dangerous? '

Zhi Ruo turned to Wang Yong and her tone turned serious, " Wang Yong, can you promise me one thing? "

Wang Yong looked at her serious face and answered in a calm tone, " You have to tell me first. "

Zhi Ruo observed his nonchalant expression and took a deep breath, " I know that you were in the military and you have a lot of connections and everything but don't take risks for nothing. You haven't even healed completely and you already want to risk yourself again. "

Wang Yong stayed silent and deeply stared at her.

" It might be presumptuous for me to say but I believe you have time. Not much, but enough to wait till you fully recover before doing something again. Whoever hurt you must still think that you are sick. Bo Jiang already informed me of the situation and has already taken measures to control the outflow of information about your condition. You were left with me for a reason. " Zhi Ruo continued on.

It's not that she didn't believe in the big boss' prowess but to her, he was already a human to her eyes, not a character anymore. Now that the plot completely derailed, she wasn't sure that nothing would really happen to him. In this novel-like world, anything could happen.

" Bo Jiang already has a lead on the culprit and the investigation is advancing pretty well so I think you can hold back a bit. After you are healed, whatever you need or do, I will support you. " Zhi Ruo tightly grasped his hands and faced him head-on.

She waited anxiously for his response when he finally moved his lips.

" Why... " it was a soft whisper of helplessness.

Zhi Ruo frowned in confusion, " Why...? Because I care about you and I don't want you to get hurt. Isn't it obvious? "

" No...why...why are you so perfect? " Wang Yong tantalizing said before kissing her deeply.

Zhi Ruo was taken aback and was lost, ' How the hell does me warning him ended up in him kissing me?! '

Fortunately, the separating screen was lifted up and the driver couldn't see them.

Wang Yong leaned even more on her and tightly held her by the waist while the other hand supported her head. His tongue explored her little mouth and only after having his fill, did he stop and adoringly hugged her.

" I promise you. " Wang Yong's husky voice sounded.

How could this tiny little ball of fluff bring him so much happiness?

Zhi Ruo was still catching her breath as she heard his answer but still nodded and returned back the hug, " Thank you. "

' I seriously need to start working on my stamina, why the hell am I always out of air each time we kiss?! Big boss is too ferocious! I am going to permanently become a tomato! '

...

They finally arrived at the luxurious casino and Wang Yong gentlemanly helped Zhi Ruo out of the car.

Zhi Ruo hooked arms with Wang Yong and they walked in together. Wang Yong told her the directions and they walked towards the VIP suites of the gigantic casino.

Zhi Ruo casually mentioned her name to the staff and they immediately let her in. They weren't surprised that such an important figure was present as this casino night was pretty popular.

Zhi Ruo regained her cold persona and aloofly stepped into the room, her aura of nonchalance enhancing her beauty.

Wang Yong softly smiled at her exuberant confidence and really wanted to kiss her right then but he held himself back and only pecked her forehead, " Don't leave my side, okay? "

" I am not a kid. " Zhi Ruo smiled helplessly.

" I am just worried. " Wang Yong answered.

" You can't always be worried about me for the rest of your life. I am an independent woman and I can take care of myself. Either way, with my status, there is not much that can hurt me. " Zhi Ruo assuredly replied.

...

5 minutes later, Zhi Ruo and Jessica met face to face.

" Good evening, Miss Jessica. " Zhi Ruo politely said, " How are you? "
