He was fond of women like her, like a little witch, in his bones. However, given his circumstances, liking was just liking.
"Hey, didn't you say you had something to tell me? Did I sit in the passenger seat and my aura was so strong that it made your tongue tied?"
Ren Yuanhao suddenly became extremely serious.
"Hey, hey, hey, don't get so serious all of a sudden, I'll mistake you for confessing your love to me. Although I'm looking forward to it, there's no beautiful scenery or romantic music here, so the success rate of confession will drop sharply~ So~"
Ji Fu was speaking when she suddenly lost interest and lowered her head. "Eh, you should at least play along with me, at least let me pretend to be happy for a little while?"
"This matter is very important, I can't tell you this in a joking manner." Ren Yuanhao pointed to the storage compartment below the center console. "There's a photo inside, take a look."
"Eh? Don't tell me you want to find a girlfriend and let me vet her for you?" Ji Fu said with a sly smile, opening the storage compartment. The photo slid out from the narrow space. She glanced at it, then at Ren Yuanhao, and said in a cunning tone, "Dongfang Jing? Don't tell me you got tangled up with this girl?"
Ren Yuanhao nodded and said, "I am indeed entangled with her now, and this matter is no trivial thing."
His expression was very solemn, not at all like he was joking. Ji Fu rarely saw him speak about something with such an expression, so she appropriately put away her playful teasing.
The car fell silent, and a heavy weight seemed to press on both their hearts.
...
About five minutes later, they arrived at the liveliest and most prosperous area in Yunjin City. Ren Yuanhao bought a hat and a mask for Ji Fu in the car, put on his own pre-prepared mask, and then got out of the car.
"Hey, this was supposed to be the start of a perfect date, but we're both full of worries. Tell me, what exactly did you want to tell me?"
Ren Yuanhao led Ji Fu to a corner of the mall lobby. The area was bustling with people, business was booming, and signs for discounts and promotions were hung high to attract customers' eyes.
Ren Yuanhao first used his internal energy to subtly sense if there were any disturbances around. After feeling safe, he said solemnly, "What I'm about to say might be hard to believe, but I was actually entrusted by Dongfang Jing to come here, so I hope you can believe the truth in my words."
"Actually, if you hadn't mentioned Dongfang Jing, I would have chosen to believe you unconditionally. So, you'd better not mention other women to me, you little pervert."
Ji Fu wrinkled her nose, seemingly still bothered by what happened that day.
Ren Yuanhao looked a bit awkward. He suddenly remembered seeing Ji Fu carrying a large bag last night, looking like she was ready to break ties with her family and run away. He asked, "By the way, you were carrying such a big bag last night. Were you planning to run away from home?"
"You saw it?" Ji Fu's eyes darted around, and before Ren Yuanhao could answer, she snorted again. "You're a good one, Ren Yuanhao. Were you following me? Even if you were following me, seeing how pathetic I looked yesterday, you didn't even come over to comfort me. You~"
Ji Fu put on an expression of extreme sorrow. Ren Yuanhao paused and explained, "It's not that I didn't want to talk to you, but I was afraid you would be angry with me."
"Angry? Do I seem like the kind of person who holds grudges?" Whenever Ji Fu looked at Ren Yuanhao, her eyes seemed to speak, lively and dancing. Seeing that Ren Yuanhao didn't reply, she suddenly lowered her voice. "If you had shown up yesterday, I would have eloped with you. What kind of damn engagement agreement, whoever wants it can have it~ But I waited and waited, and you never came."
Ji Fu's words were clear. She had likely already signed that engagement agreement, and her fiancé was probably the eldest young master of the Mo family. Ren Yuanhao would eventually make that man suffer.
"Why didn't you call me about something like this?"
"After seeing you with women on both sides, could I shamelessly call you? Who do you think you are? Don't I have any dignity?"
Ji Fu's tone became noticeably heavier, causing passing customers to stop and look back, thinking it was a quarrel between a young couple. They then listlessly walked away with cheap merchandise.
"Miss Ji, can you keep your voice down? You've been 'kidnapped' by me, and if we get caught, I'll have no way to explain myself."
"It would be even better if you had no way to explain yourself. Then I would just add fuel to the fire, humph!"
Ren Yuanhao was certain that this strange woman was capable of doing something like that.
"Alright, my dear lady, stop being angry. After this is over, I'll make it up to you, okay?" Ren Yuanhao couldn't find suitable words of comfort, so he could only go along with her mood and say some nice things.
"What can you possibly do? I've already agreed to marry that Mo Yunfei. It's in black and white, no different from a contract to sell myself."
The more Ji Fu spoke, the more wronged she felt. Just as Ren Yuanhao was about to reach out to touch her shoulder, Ji Fu grabbed his hand, pulled off his mask, and bit down on the muscle below his tiger's mouth!
Ji Fu bit down with all her might. When she released, blood slowly trickled down Ren Yuanhao's hand. The bite marks mixed with blood looked like a muddy pit after a rain.
Looking at the blood, Ji Fu suddenly seemed to remember something. She felt so distressed that she almost cried. She immediately turned to buy some gauze to bandage it for him, her face turning pale.
"Why didn't you groan? If you had groaned, I might have let go~"
Ren Yuanhao smiled as if the clouds had dispersed and the sky was clearing, "As long as you can vent your anger, and let me finish what I have to say, then this matter is up to you."
"I'm sorry~ I was too willful, I~" Ji Fu's face was full of guilt. "Alright, you can say it now, I'm listening."
At this moment, the crowd in the mall suddenly caused a commotion! Some people were shouting and rushing out of the mall, but before they reached the entrance, they suddenly retreated back into the mall as if they had seen a ghost.
"It seems something has happened."
Ren Yuanhao stood up and suddenly saw a wall of fire ignite at the entrance!
The flames grew fiercer and fiercer. Four masked men in black robes held revolvers in their hands, with black leather bags slung at their waists, their eyes blazing with a man-eating glint.
"All of you, get down and don't move."
The leader swaggered to the jewelry store, threw the black leather bag onto the counter, pointed his gun at the beautiful store manager's head, and said in a muffled voice, "Do you want to do it, or shall I?"
"Don't, don't kill me~ I'll do whatever you say." The manager reached for the cash register and shakily typed in a few numbers. The cash register opened, and she took out stacks of banknotes and handed them to the man. "Take all this~"
"Damn it, do you think we risked our lives to rob for such a small amount of cash?"
Bang!
The man shot the store manager in the leg, and the others began smashing glass crazily.
