"No, you’re not alone."
Tang Li shook her head, her gaze intently fixed on him: "You still have , Ethan. I’ll stay by your side, and I’ll figure out a way to get you out of here!"
After saying that, she called Lai Wenyan.
In front of Ethan, Tang Li made five calls to Lai Wenyan.
Only one call got through.
Under the light, Tang Li’s worried expression didn’t seem feigned.
Ethan couldn’t help but comfort her: "It’s okay, Jill. This place isn’t bad. As long as you take care of yourself, I can rest easy here."
Tang Li suddenly said, "I have a friend going to Las Vegas tomorrow. Ethan, give your ho address, and I’ll have him explain your situation here in the country—"
"No need!" Ethan interrupted her.
Tang Li looked at him, puzzled.
Ethan’s heart raced slightly as he gripped his hands on the edge of the table: "The situation at ho is a bit complicated. My father has more than one son, and in a large family like ours, there are bound to be power struggles. If my older brother finds out about my current situation, he will definitely make a big deal of it. I might lose my inheritance rights because of this stain in the future."
"What should we do now?"
Tang Li opened her cellphone’s social dia app to show Ethan: "You’ve been trending all day; I think your brother must have seen the news."
Ethan: "...?!?!"
Before Tang Li could speak, he hurriedly said: "No, he won’t. My brother doesn’t follow gossip news. Since I’ve been wronged, when I return to Las Vegas, I’ll investigate this matter myself."
After speaking, his gaze towards Tang Li seed to overflow with affection: "I’ve made up my mind, Jill, just now. I’ve decided. I want you to be the young lady of the Winter Family; I want you to be the envy of countless won. Once we return to Las Vegas, we’ll get married!"
Tang Li’s eyes flickered with struggle: "But... I have a boyfriend."
"Then let be the despicable one in love. Let bear all the slurs and accusations. If it’s for you, it’s all worth it!"
"Do you really want to endure all that for ?"
Seeing Tang Li waver, Ethan confessed with all his strength: "I do! No girl has ever made so obsessed. For you, I’d climb mountains and dive into fires; I’d sell my soul to the devil!"
As he spoke, he saw her eyes begin to redden.
Tang Li took a deep breath and said softly: "I’ve thought about it all night. This morning, I broke up with my boyfriend. Coming to find you took a lot of determination too."
She looked at Ethan, torn between her emotions and reason: "I thought I could control my feelings, but seeing the news, seeing you with another woman, I was so jealous I nearly went mad. Now I just want to go to Las Vegas with you, to see you every day, and not have anyone else by your side."
Even Ethan, accustod to acting out emotions, felt touched at that mont.
A woman, so madly in love with him; for a man, this represents unfathomable depth of affection!
Tang Li suddenly said: "I want to move in with you, is that okay?"
Even though Tang Li tried to hide it, Ethan still saw the shyness in her eyes.
There was nothing scandalous in his apartnt, the laptop was password-protected, he wasn’t worried about Tang Li ssing around. On the contrary, if he refused her, who knew if sothing else might happen in the next few days.
Therefore, he looked back at Tang Li with tender affection: "Whenever you want to move, you can!"
A few minutes later—
Ethan signed his na on the power of attorney for the collection of stored belongings.
