The night was getting darker
Tang Yuyan and Xia Lei led Shentu Tianyin to one of theYuyan spoke, “Tianyin, this will be your roo else that you need”
Shentu Tianyin nodded “Thank you” She stared at Xia Lei She see else but decided to hold back
Tang Yuyan sly “You two should talk I’ll retire to my room now”
“Yuyan, you…” Inexplicably, Xia Lei suddenly felt like he had done so Yuyan to turn around and spare hi with normal conversations It’s been a while since we last met each other I’m sure there’s plenty that you wish to talk about”
Xia Lei's smile was lopsided “You can head back first, I’ll join you in a bit”
“Okay” was Tang Yuyan’s curt response before she walked away
Shentu Tianyin voiced, “She really has changed I guess woe Perhaps she has found her true happiness now that she’s right next to you I’lad for her”
Despite the sords, Xia Lei’s heart was plagued by a strong, spiralling bitterness He kneas running out of ti doo now- If he wanted the wind, he’d get the wind; if he wanted rain, he’d get the rain He was ifted Almost everyone envied him and Xia Lei seemed to be at bliss too Sadly, what people could not see was his fleeting life Who could understand the stress of having to put on a so untold even to Shentu Tianyin
“Xia Lei, about that…” Shentu Tianyin brought up a topic that she was eager to hear an answer about
Xia Lei snapped back to reality He replied, “About that… Tianyin, could you please spare me some more time? I proht, I’ll wait” Despite those words, the sadness reflecting off her eyes was obvious “When will you leave for Nigeria?”
Xia Lei answered, “Giovanna and the others would’ve coht”
“I’ with,” said Shentu Tianyin
“What?” Xia Lei was taken aback Never in his life would he had expected Shentu Tianyin to come up with such an idea
Shentu Tianyin was not a fighter The woun in her life, let alone been involved in fights Plus, she was China’s richest woman with an asset of over hundreds of billions Shentu Tianyin was not fit to coeria This was literally madness
“How is that supposed to work? Why would you come up with that idea in the first place?” Xia Lei rejected it directly
Yet, Shentu Tianyin’s gaze was unwavering “I’m the owner of the Alliance Mine Now that the A to ”
“I dare confirm that the invaders are Aiven orders to kill no o? You can’t possibly be thinking about a negotiation They won’t even spare you a chance to speak Once they track you down, one h to take you out of the picture,” explained Xia Lei
Surprisingly, Shentu Tianyin showed no fear She retorted, “But what about you? You too will face the sa over? You have the choice to stay out of this and leave overnment”
Xia Lei smiled bitterly at that “I’m sure I’ve explained my reasons earlier Our country has no overseas military bases and the distance renders us unable to take control of the situation over there It took us a lot to overcoe in aerial coies would no doubt becoht even happen”
“The country is none ofwhat I wish to do”
“Tianyin, you…”
Shentu Tianyin pressed, “I know things are coerous too But you’ll be there to protect me, no?”
Xia Lei was speechless True, he would no doubt protect her but as soon as a war breaks out, she’d become a burden Bullets have no eyes and the CIA’s assassins are trained to be uarantee his own survival on the battlefield, he could not say the sarant her protection, her safety was still not guaranteed!
“I can tell what’s on yourto be difficult here” Shentu Tianyin’s words were laced with sadness “To be honest… I don’tthe Alliance Mine I really couldn’t be bothered about it Do you really not understand why I yearn to come with you? I just want to experience a trip of a lifetio and be with you like the rest of the for me to look back on”
Xia Lei was silent This decision was difficult to call as it was a matter of Shentu Tianyin’s life or death
“Also…” Shentu Tianyin stopped herself, the tip of her ears burning red
She was also asking for a child, so adventure of a lifetime that she could look back on and a child were her tildest wishes For the sake of realizing it, Shentu Tianyin had placed her own safety at the back of her e for a delicate woman like her to settle on these decisions
The corners of her eyes were getting wet “Xia Lei, you gave me a chance once upon a time to choose between you and the Vientiane Group I chose the latter After that, every ing you to give me another chance so I can truly move on Please, allow me to choose you just this once I really wish to experience those heart-pounding reat memories”
