Chapter 2431: Chapter 235:
"No."
Ye Zhan shook his head.
His tone carried emotions he couldn’t quite hide.
Momo glanced at his injured hand, then looked at his handsome, noble face, and said gently, "Ye Zhan, being with you, I’m not afraid of danger or getting hurt. I just want you to promise me one thing."
"What is it?"
Ye Zhan put down his chopsticks.
Momo composed her expression and said seriously, "I want you to promise me that no matter what the reason is, you will never abandon me."
She feared he might act as he did before.
Clearly liking her, yet pushing her away.
Deep in Ye Zhan’s heart, there was a strong feeling of shock and emotional stirring.
He hadn’t known Momo for long, despite their mutual affection, they didn’t know each other deeply.
Previously, he thought Momo was beautiful, smart, straightforward, kind, and brave.
But in this moment, he felt the woman before him was not just those qualities; she always surprised him.
Like when Shi Dongliang pointed a gun at her head, although she was scared, she managed to hide it well, completely different from the other hostages he had rescued.
Now, she spoke words that stunned and moved him deeply.
He felt incredibly fortunate to be liked by her, and even more fortunate not to have lost her.
He solemnly nodded, promising her, "I assure you, what you’re worried about will never happen."
"Also, no matter the time, I don’t want you to do anything against your morals or conscience for my sake."
"Momo."
Ye Zhan frowned, his voice low and husky.
He understood she meant Ji Anyun.
Momo watched his frowning expression, then smiled openly, leaning over to touch his forehead.
Looking at him with admiration and adoration.
"..."
Ye Zhan suddenly didn’t know what to say.
Nor could he express his feelings in words.
He simply looked deeply at the gentle and kind girl in front of him, inwardly telling himself that in the future, he would definitely protect her.
No matter what storms came, even if it meant giving his all, he wanted her to be safe.
The knocking on the door interrupted the delicate atmosphere between them.
Momo withdrew her hand and sat upright.
The waiter came in with their dishes.
They hadn’t ordered much, and the dishes were all served at once; the waiter left the private room.
Ye Zhan’s phone rang.
Seeing the caller ID, his expression subtly changed, he put down his chopsticks and stood up, saying to Momo, "I’ll go take a call."
"Okay."
Momo smiled and nodded lightly.
Ye Zhan stepped out of the private room with his phone, closed the door and walked a few steps before answering.
Inside the room, Momo propped her chin with her hand, gazing softly in the direction of the door.
Her mind, a bit enchanted and dazed.
The feeling of being with Ye Zhan seemed somewhat unreal to Momo.
Even now, she couldn’t quite believe this happiness was real.
The notification sound of a WeChat message rang; it was Wen Ziyang’s message.
Momo opened the WeChat interface to check the message.
Wen Ziyang said he couldn’t trace that number.
The phone number had been processed.
Momo stared at the message, her brows furrowing slightly, [Aren’t you very capable? Why can’t you trace it?]
[My Sister, there are always people better and skies beyond. What did the owner of this number do to you? Why don’t you find our cousin?]
Wen Ziyang was also a proud child, unwilling to admit he was not as capable as his cousin unless absolutely necessary.
But now, he couldn’t help but admit he wasn’t up to par with Mo Ziye.
[Forget it, I’ll talk to you when I get back.]
Momo recalled the photo had also been sent to her father’s phone, from the same number as the one sent to her.
She believed her father would surely investigate.
With her father investigating, she didn’t need to worry.
Hearing the door of the private room being opened, Momo put down her phone and looked towards the door.
Ye Zhan came in, meeting her gaze, a faint smile curved on his lips.
