Mountains, log cabin, night breeze.
Red wine, steaks, lover.
This perhaps is the most romantic mont in a woman’s heart.
In the swaying glass of red wine, Lin Fan’s handso face was reflected.
The slightly tipsy Yang Linglong’s complexion was like a peeled grape.
The flickering candles added a layer of haze to her beauty.
"It’s about ti to rest, don’t forget that you have a challenge to face tomorrow,"
Glancing at the ti, Lin Fan smiled as he stood up.
"Tonight, I’ll also accept your challenge."
The wine emboldened Yang Linglong a bit more.
She rose and plunged directly into Lin Fan’s arms, her eyes blurring with drunkenness.
This feeling was just right, enough to suppress shyness and ignite the flas.
"Be good, tomorrow’s challenge is dangerous, you must get a proper sleep tonight. After you win, I’ll slowly savor you."
Lin Fan naturally understood what Yang Linglong implied.
However, if her untouched body was to be ravaged, it could be very dangerous tomorrow.
At tis like this, he definitely couldn’t devour her.
"We’ve drunk, and now you’re telling you won’t sleep with ?"
Yang Linglong lifted her head, looking at Lin Fan with a face full of grievance.
She had already ward up completely.
"This is a special situation,"
Lin Fan pinched Yang Linglong’s cheek.
If it wasn’t because of the chase, he certainly wouldn’t have let the two of them interact so closely.
After all, faced with such a stunning beauty, it was nearly impossible to remain sensible.
"Have you been avoiding all this ti because of this?"
Yang Linglong narrowed her eyes.
She might be a bit drunk, but she was definitely not foolish.
Gazing directly into Lin Fan’s eyes, she had noticed sothing was off.
In the past, he was desperate for her.
If it wasn’t for that accident, they would probably have been intimate long ago.
But for so reason, he had been avoiding her ever since.
It seed as if he was deliberately escaping any overly intimate actions between them.
"Don’t get carried away with your thoughts, there’s no such thing."
Lin Fan was at a loss for words.
Such a beauty was right in front of him, yet he couldn’t touch her.
He could only feel helpless.
"I may not be smart, but I’m not stupid. Don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking. Do you feel that as long as there’s no intimate contact, you don’t need to be responsible for ?"
Yang Linglong held onto Lin Fan’s waist: "I know you’re married, but I don’t care. I don’t want your money, nor your power, and I’m not after your responsibility. I just want to give you my all. For you, I don’t care about anything else. What I care about is whether I’m in your heart, even if it’s just a fleeting thought, that’s enough for ."
"I really didn’t an that!"
Lin Fan gently stroked Yang Linglong’s hair.
He wasn’t avoiding responsibility, but the truth, if revealed, might be too much for her to handle.
"Then take , no matter what the future holds, even if we can’t make it in the end, I’ll have no regrets. As long as you’ve loved , everything is enough. I’m an adult; I can be responsible for my actions. Please, take !"
Clinging tightly to Lin Fan, she rested her head against his chest.
This kind of persistent pleading was hard for a man to refuse.
After all, such a gorgeous goddess is what n dream of.
Yet here she was, entwining herself around him, ready to give herself over.
How could Lin Fan remain unmoved?
"Be good, let finish first,"
Lin Fan looked at the blushing Yang Linglong.
He knew that even though she was outgoing, that didn’t an she could utter such words lightly.
So, she had expended so much courage; if he didn’t show so form of appreciation, he wouldn’t be much of a man.
"Tomorrow is your showdown with Qiuyuan Hongi. Didn’t you say you want to defeat her fair and square? So tonight you must ensure you get enough sleep. If you win and you’re still willing to give yourself to , I promise I absolutely won’t let you lose, okay?"
"Really?"
Yang Linglong looked at Lin Fan with tears brimming in her eyes.
"Of course, I promise to make you the happiest woman in the world."
Lin Fan smiled and pinched her soft nose.
He then took the amulet charm hanging around his neck and put it on her.
"Wear this tonight, and you’ll surely sleep soundly. I’ll be guarding outside your door; I promise that no one will disrupt tomorrow’s competition."
"You’re guarding outside... You an... she’s going to play tricks tonight? No way, if she’s that kind of person, why would she co all this way to challenge ?"
Yang Linglong imdiately understood the implication of Lin Fan’s words.
Combined with the people who stood beside Qiuyuan Hongi today, who clearly weren’t the good sort,
She suddenly realized why Lin Fan had brought her here.
"She might be like you, but those around her don’t think the sa way. But no matter who they are, they won’t get to hurt you. Rest well tonight; prove your worth with your strength tomorrow as the best there is."
Lin Fan took Yang Linglong by the hand and led her back to the bedroom.
He told her to close her eyes and pressed lightly on a few of her acupoints.
Yang Linglong, who had been too nervous to sleep just a mont ago,
Now fell into a deep sleep.
But the furrowed brows showed that she wasn’t happy.
"Sleep now, I won’t let anyone hurt you."
He kissed her gently on the forehead.
Only then did Lin Fan stand up and walk out of the wooden hut.
That’s when Ning ngyao’s call ca through.
"Hello, I’m already ho. Where have you gone?"
It was late at night, and Ning ngyao had hurried back to her ho as soon as she was done with her work.
But she didn’t find Lin Fan there.
"I’m dealing with so matters outside, and won’t be able to co back tonight. I’ll finish off that trash and then co back to be with you."
Lin Fan gazed at the darkness around him.
At that mont, only the night breeze was blowing.
"Then be careful."
Ning ngyao could tell that Lin Fan was clearly not talking about cleaning.
So the "trash" he ntioned might very well be the target that needed to be taken care of.
After she gave a few words of caution, she hung up.
Lin Fan, anwhile, smiled and pulled over a chair, sitting down at the door.
He propped up his feet, challenging the surrounding darkness.
"Hey, aren’t you afraid of mosquitoes biting you after crouching for so long? Better show yourself soon; I don’t have all day."
"Swoosh... swoosh swoosh swoosh..."
No sooner had the words left his mouth than six figures shot out like apparitions.
The figures, dressed in black, moved efficiently and with precise steps, quickly surrounding Lin Fan.
"A fair and square competition was agreed upon, yet here you are trying to assassinate . You lot are truly born hypocrites. But it’s good you ca, saves the trouble of looking for you. Just in ti, I’ve been needing so good ingredients for the pot."
Lin Fan grinned at the person in the middle.
His breathing was the most steady, likely indicating he was the most powerful among them.
And today, he was the one standing closest to Qiuyuan Hongi.
"If you want to live, stay out of trouble, or else there will be no rcy."
The captain of the guards’ eyes glittered with cold light.
He was well-hidden yet discovered; this kid was surely no ordinary person.
But tonight, both he and the girl must die.
Lin Fan smiled faintly.
"Rember in your next life: on this land, better watch your words!"
