Three days later, Jing Moxuan was expressionlessly sitting on a stone chair with his arms crossed, his face expressionless, while Cheng Yichen was sitting opposite of him. He was holding onto a magazine and reading through it carefully, a cup of coffee was placed beside him.

"Cheng Yichen, I do not owe you a favor."

He slightly raised his eyebrows, not even raising his eyes as he said indifferently, "What do you want to say?"

"You saved me, I won't thank you, but I will definitely return the favor. Cheng Yichen, when mother died that year, did you really not doubt it at all? Do you really think they committed suicide? "

Cheng Yichen's expression suddenly changed, and he suddenly raised his head to look at him, "What do you mean by that?"

"Literally, that's all I can say." Jing Moxuan coldly swept a glance at him, "You'll have to investigate the rest yourself."

At this moment, the sound of light footsteps came from the small path. Both of them turned their heads to the side, and a butler dressed neatly appeared and respectfully said, "Young Master Xuan, Young Master Cheng, old master has called for you."

Cheng Yichen lowered his head, and fiercely took a sip. Only after the butler left did he ask, "How did you know?"

"I once went through the forest twice. Grandpa gave me two chances to ask questions as a reward. I asked two questions, one of them about you." He narrowed his eyes and said lightly, "That's all I know."

Cheng Yichen was still sitting on the stone chair, his gaze subconsciously looking towards his own residence. She had not seen Li Ruo for three whole days, she should hate him, right?

He shook his head and stood up to go to the meeting room.

Old Master Jing was still dressed in middle mountain attire and sitting at the head of the conference room, drinking tea from a teacup., Cheng Yichen, Li Ruo, and the others were seated below.

Only after a long time did Old Master Jing put down the teacup, and with his narrowed and cloudy eyes, he asked, "How was the adventure game this time?"

"Grandfather, didn't you see the entire process from the monitor? Why ask us? " Jing Moxuan said in an extremely displeased tone.

Old Master Jing laughed, "Seems like you are in a bad mood, and if you were not careless, how could you have been tricked?"

Jing Moxuan was rendered speechless by the question, and did not speak anymore, but he was still very unhappy. At that time, his mind was really in a mess, and on top of that, he was about to go out, so he did not take any precautions.

"Li Ruo, I really look forward to your decision."

Li Ruo had his head lowered from start to finish, and only when she heard these words did she raise it and look at Cheng Yichen seriously. There was an indescribable complicated expression in her eyes, as she stared at earnestly.

Finally, he slowly said, "I choose Jing Moxuan."

"Oh?" Old Master Jing gave a shallow smile, "It's really surprising, are you sure it's Xuan Kid?"

Her eyes were still not bad as she opened Cheng Yichen's mouth and spoke word by word, "I'm sure."

"This is my promise."

When she said those words, Cheng Yichen's heart was struck hard by something. A woman under the sunlight, seemed as if she did not exist in his eyes, untouchable.

Agreeing to stay with Jing Moxuan was a promise, right?

Jing Moxuan burst out in laughter, as he turned to look at the lady furthest from him, "Li Ruo, did you forget? I wouldn't save you in the forest, are you sure you want to choose me? "

She nodded affirmatively as her lips curled up into a smile. However, she looked unreal and said, "I'm not afraid."

Her words made Jing Moxuan go silent, and he had no idea what she was thinking. He probably did not expect that in the end, Li Ruo would choose him instead. Isn't this too dramatic?

Commitment? Her promise to whom?

"Then get engaged as soon as possible." Old Master Jing squinted as he looked at Li Ruo, the corners of his mouth curving up to reveal a strange expression.

After dispersing, Li Ruo walked back gloomily, but suddenly heard hurried footsteps behind her, and very quickly, her arm was grabbed, she turned her head and met a pair of startled eyes.

Jing Moxuan grabbed her arm and asked: "Why?"

"Why what?"

"Why are you engaged to me? Are you stupid? I am going to kill you, shouldn't you be afraid of me? "

Li Ruo blinked her eyes, and retorted with a smile that was not a smile, "But, I can only rely on you ah."

This sentence was like a sharp knife. This sentence was something that he had threatened Li Ruo with before, but now, hearing it from her mouth made him feel an incomparable sense of ridicule.

"Don't ask me why, those words are a bit silly." Li Ruo replied with a light smile, and continued to walk back to her own house.

Jing Moxuan's face revealed a mocking smile, he did not understand why Li Ruo became like that. Logically speaking, Li Ruo should have a deep relationship with Cheng Yichen in the forest, why did she still choose him after coming out?

Li Ruo returned to her room and laid powerlessly on the sofa. What happened three days ago was just like a dream, she could not fall asleep every night, the process was too scary.

When the door opened, she subconsciously looked up into Jing Moxuan's eyes. He slowly walked in and sat beside her, his tone very calm.

"Got it."

"Li Ruo, do you love me?" He clasped his hands together, uncertainty in his eyes.

Li Ruo did not say anything, but indifferently looked at him with eyes full of ridicule, "Perhaps."

After a moment of silence, Li Ruo yawned and muttered, "I want to sleep."

She stood up and walked to the side, and for some reason, she fell down with a thud. When Jing Moxuan heard that something was wrong, he immediately turned around and saw her unconscious on the ground.

"Li Ruo?" He hastily ran over and carefully observed her, only to find that her nose was bleeding.

His face darkened for a moment before he said in a deep voice, "Someone, come."

The servants quickly rushed in and helped carry Li Ruo to bed. Her nose was still bleeding, and Jing Moxuan took out a small white bottle from the drawer and poured a pill into her mouth.

There were still three pills left, which proved that if she were to make three more mistakes, there would be no cure for her. Seems like he had to find the Holy Hand as soon as possible, otherwise, he wouldn't be able to keep Li Ruo alive.

"She used a wet tissue to wipe away the blood on her nose. The blood still flowed, and the pillow under the blanket was entirely covered in red flowers. It looked just like a red plum on a snowy day, it was beautiful.

Jing Moxuan sighed with a gloomy face, "You guys can leave, I'll take care of her."

"Yes."

As the maids walked out, he continued to wipe the blood off her nose with a tissue. The medicine was very effective, so the bleeding stopped immediately. However, this time, it was a bit awkward.

There was blood all around her, and even the air was filled with a sweet smell. He was very familiar with this smell, but at this moment, he was extremely disgusted with it.

"Li Ruo?" He gently shook her shoulder.

Jing Moxuan gave up and did not want to wake her up anymore. He used a wet towel to wipe the blood that had flowed down her face clean and covered her with the blanket. Only then did he call for the maid to change her pillow and blanket.

"Young Master Xuan, there's a young lady waiting for you." A maid spoke mysteriously.

Jing Moxuan's eyes narrowed, and replied indifferently, "Got it."

Beside the swimming pool, a young lady dressed in beautiful clothes sat there. Her wavy hair gave off a special feeling when it was blown by the wind, and Jing Moxuan slowly walked over with his lips curled up slightly.

"Darling, you took the initiative today. I didn't go look for you, so you came looking for me yourself."

The woman turned around and revealed a beautiful face. She stood up with a faint smile, placed her hand on his neck, and spoke with some pity, "Didn't you say your arm was injured? So I came to see you. "

"Don't worry, it's just that the upper section is broken. It's not as bad as the lower section."

The woman covered her mouth and giggled. Her eyes narrowed a little as she said, "Oh? "We'll have to try it first before we know if it's bad or not."

"Woman, you're really bad." He leaned close to her, his voice low.

The woman stepped back and asked, "The group sent a message saying that you are getting engaged? Are you for real? "

"Guess."

"How should I know? But who was the engagement partner? Is it that pure and innocent girl who has always been by your side? " "Is it really her?"

Jing Moxuan nodded, he did not plan to hide it, "It is indeed her."

"That girl is not bad, she looks very innocent, you can't bully her." The woman said sincerely, "She seems to be a very unscheming person, I think I was like that back then."

"Aren't you jealous?" Jing Moxuan held her chin in his hand for a while, and then gasped for air and asked, "Is what you said really true? You're really not jealous of her? "

The woman's cheeks were slightly flushed and she had traces of water on her cheeks. She squinted her eyes and said, "I don't have the capital to be jealous of her. You and I are only a couple in an awkward situation. I didn't think too much about it."

Jing Moxuan stroked her chin and asked, "So you didn't come to find me to denounce me?"

She very seriously shook her head, her big eyes twinkling. "Am I such a petty person in your heart? I have something important to talk to you about. "

Important things? Jing Moxuan caught hold of the main point in a moment, and with a slight pinch, his eyes became sharp, "Have you found the whereabouts of the person I told you to inquire about?"

"You're very smart." The woman placed her hand on his mouth and gently slid it across with her finger. "According to reliable news, the Holy Hand will be coming to the black market in the United States this weekend. The news is very reliable."

"Weekend." Jing Moxuan squinted his eyes, "Very good, woman, how should I thank you?"

The woman's smile was like a peach flower, her eyes exuding a dense light. Her fingers gently stroked his clothes, revealing the skin underneath. She extended her hand like a snake and gently moved it inside, "What I want is very simple."

Jing Moxuan played dumb and placed his hand on her waist, "What is a very simple thing? Money? A house? A car? "

"Aiya, can I be such a shallow woman?" The woman rolled her eyes without hesitation, revealing a trace of warm anger, "We know each other, am I that shallow in your heart? I don't lack money. "

"Then what do you lack?" Jing Moxuan hugged her and hid to the corner of the wall, fiercely pushing her against the wall, "Tell me, what do you want?"

The woman giggled. Her gentle and orchid-like breath lingered in his ears as she slowly opened her mouth, "Do you really not know or pretend not to know? Did you say that on purpose? "

"Of course I don't know. How would I know if you didn't say anything?"

The woman placed her hand on his neck and pouted, then said with incomparable seriousness, "Of course I want you."
