Chapter 583 - 582: When Assassin Meets Assassin
"Are you saying you can help me escape? Can you?"
"No!"
"..."
Yu was speechless for a moment, she really wanted to curse, but she was a girl after all, and no matter how angry she was, she couldn’t say it. Plus, she couldn’t provoke this guy at this time.
"Hmph, and yet you said you’d help me." Yu was also surprised, it seemed like she had used up all her words in this lifetime.
You should know, when executing missions before, she rarely spoke a word, but now she was chatting endlessly with this man.
"Oh, I’ll help you, but maybe not to escape, after all, you came to kill me. How can I guarantee you won’t come again? I’m not an idiot." Chen Tianlong said lightly.
"You..." Yu was furious, she was being played.
But thinking about it, he really couldn’t help his situation, Yu took a deep breath and said, "Then I promise, I won’t kill you in the future!"
Compared to the Lao Family, she was somewhat respected. Failing a mission might just get her scolded, but if she really got caught by the police this time, then she’d be finished.
"Are you sure?"
"I’m sure. You know as a fellow, assassins may be cold-hearted, but once they agree to something, they will never go back on their word."
"Fine, then I agree to help you. However, you have to cooperate with me in a bit." Chen Tianlong said with a mischievous smile.
Seeing Chen Tianlong’s sleazy expression, Yu’s heart felt a chill, not knowing what this guy wanted. But faced with the choice of getting caught, she opted to cooperate.
Three minutes later, the door opened, and Chen Tianlong walked out holding Yu’s hand. At this moment, there were already ten or so people standing around the door, each holding a gun pointed at them.
"Oh my, what’s all this about?" Chen Tianlong said to the crowd.
At this moment, the crowd was also dumbfounded, and Li Bingshuang walked over on high heels, looking confused upon seeing Chen Tianlong with a stranger beauty.
Wasn’t there supposed to be danger earlier? How come a beauty showed up suddenly?
Gazing at this sexy beauty, the officers widened their eyes, their mouths watering.
"Chen Tianlong, what’s this..."
"Hehe, Bingshuang, we all got it wrong. The person who entered the room earlier is my cousin who came to Capital City with me. She’s usually a bit naughty, always doing things unexpectedly and not following the usual path."
At this point, Chen Tianlong deliberately winked at Li Bingshuang, who was stunned but understood quickly. Apparently, Chen Tianlong was helping this woman, though she didn’t know what had happened.
"Sorry everyone, it might be a misunderstanding, it turns out to be Chen Tianlong’s cousin playing pranks." Li Bingshuang smiled wryly. Although the excuse was somewhat far-fetched, it was Chen Tianlong’s intention, so she complied.
The police and security guards shook their heads upon hearing Li Bingshuang’s words and left one after another.
They dared not get angry; after all, this was the chairman of the Baiyun Group. If there’s trouble, they need to be serious; if there’s not, they should be secretly happy.
A few minutes later, after those people had left, Li Bingshuang was about to go over when she saw Yu’s face suddenly change from a bitter smile to incredibly cold.
"Remember what you promised me, no need to ask who’s sent you, and I hope you won’t bother me any further in the future." Chen Tianlong released Yu’s hand and gave her a warning before pulling 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 much of a prankster, yet she was a beauty and dressed seductively, attracting quite a few of their heated gazes.
It was Yu’s first time being stared at by men like this. Though she was angry inside, she couldn’t let anything happen, so she quickly left.
"Chen Tianlong, explain to me why you’re helping that woman?" After Yu left, Li Bingshuang stared at Chen Tianlong and asked.
"I’m afraid she’d seek revenge!" Chen Tianlong’s response was concise.
The truth is, this isn’t the reason, but the fact that, as fellow assassins, they have their own dilemmas. No one is born into such intense training and the life which feels worse than death.
That woman looked young, if not forced by life, she probably wouldn’t have taken the path of an assassin.
This is comrades’ mutual empathy.
"Alright, fine, let go, then let go." Li Bingshuang wasn’t one to dwell on things, many matters she eased up on, so her expression suddenly softened, slowly leaning into Chen Tianlong’s arms.
"Chen Tianlong, when will you marry me? Half a year seems so long, can we do it a bit earlier?" Li Bingshuang recalled Chen Tianlong’s promise for that year.
Upon hearing this, Chen Tianlong felt a headache coming. This marriage wasn’t what he wanted; already confused with Wu Mengting, now there was Li Bingshuang.
Remembering that day, Li Bingshuang’s words in the park, Chen Tianlong didn’t dare to say outrightly, as it would break Li Bingshuang’s heart. If she’s really so persistent and does something foolish, it could be disastrous.
"Well, half a year is still a while, we can talk about it then." Chen Tianlong attempted to brush off.
Such matters truly gave him headaches, after all, it was an accident, or perhaps to put it more accurately, it was fate.
"Alright, Chen Tianlong...will you stay with me tonight?" Li Bingshuang became extremely tender, almost melting Chen Tianlong’s heart. He never expected the cold CEO to have such a gentle side.
"Okay!"
Chen Tianlong was powerless to refuse, and he couldn’t refuse. He had personally promised her, and now going back on it wasn’t his way.
That night, Li Bingshuang nestled in Chen Tianlong’s arms, sleeping peacefully.
Of course, there must have been some affectionate episodes before sleep, but that’s not the focus. Can’t be too detailed, as Wu Mengting is indeed Chen Tianlong’s true love.
Now that things were sorted, Chen Tianlong couldn’t stay here too long. After all, Capital City wasn’t his place to linger, and now it was already past the fourth day of the lunar new year, time to head back to Old Chen, awaiting the school year’s start.
Reluctantly bidding farewell to Li Bingshuang, Chen Tianlong went to the hospital to pay a visit to Shen Yan’s mother, then left Capital City with Shen Yan’s farewell.
In merely two or three days in Capital City, Chen Tianlong experienced so much, thinking back, it felt quite thrilling. Fortunately, the new year was finally over safely.
Upon returning to South Sea City, Chen Tianlong said goodbye to the eldest miss and the others before driving toward Tan Tian’s house.
He had promised Wu Mengting to take her to see Old Chen after the fourth day, since Mo Jing would be there too. But that was troubling him, as earlier he brought Shen Yan home, and Chen Tian had already mistaken her as his girlfriend, now adding Wu Mengting, wouldn’t this be revealing?
With a hint of trepidation, Chen Tianlong and Wu Mengting picked up some modest gifts and headed towards Lotus Village. However, this time they didn’t encounter any troublemakers following them, making a smooth journey straight to Lotus Village’s entrance.
This time, Chen Tianlong was a bit smarter, posting a note on it reading: This car is driven by a local village person, please do not tow away without permission!
Upon seeing this, Wu Mengting covered her mouth and giggled. Chen Tianlong truly was amusing, even going to these lengths just to park a car.
