Chapter 429: So Close, So Close

Besides, once the case was solved, it would benefit Feng Churui and her. Hence, she had to do so.

Secondly, she needed to calm herself down and consider how to continue this relations.h.i.+p.

“No! Do you know how dangerous this is!?!” Rong Yan barked with a sullen expression.

“I’ll protect myself.”

“No!”

“Rong Yan… I’m not a child. I know what I want to do and I can take responsibility for my actions.”

“If you’re responsible for yourself, who’s going to be responsible for me!?!” What if something were to happen to him?

The atmosphere in the living room was extremely tense. Seeing that they were about to get into an argument, Feng Churui immediately spoke.

“Yan, trust me. I’ll take full responsibility for Anning’s safety. I promise I won’t let her lose a single strand of hair.”

Rong Yan remained silent and continued smoking while a sullen expression formed on his handsome face.

After Feng Churui left, Luo Anning waved for everyone to leave. She removed the cigarette from Rong Yan’s hand and put it out in the ashtray.

Rong Yan ignored her and continued to light up another cigarette.

Luo Anning rolled her eyes and barked, “Stop smoking!”

“It’s none of your business!”

“You’re not going to let me?” Luo Anning smiled self-deprecatingly and continued, “Fine, I don’t care about you anymore. I just want to tell you that I’ll definitely investigate this case to the end regardless of whether you agree or not!”

She initially wanted to have a good talk with him and try to convince him to agree.

However, she did not expect him to turn her down this ruthlessly, not allowing her to use any of the excuses that she had prepared!

She stood up and headed upstairs without looking at the man behind her.

When she reached the stairs, her wrist was grabbed and she was hugged from behind. A pair of slender and well-defined hands wandered across her abdomen.

“Of course, of course! Who cares if you don’t care about me!?!” he barked angrily.

Luo Anning burst into laughter. She had never seen such an awkward man before!

Why did he go back on his words now?

“Let go.”

Rong Yan hugged her even tighter and barked, “Dream on!”

Luo Anning frowned and asked, “Do you want to strangle me?”

Rong Yan was stunned. Didn’t she tell him to let go?

He immediately understood what she meant and quickly let go of her arm to make her feel more comfortable. He placed his beautiful chin on her neck and asked in an alluring voice, “Do you feel better now?”

“Okay,” she answered reluctantly.

Although she really wanted to ignore him and let him die!

However, she could not resist him at all.

Even if it was just a hug, she could not resist him.

Because of her longing for him…

Rong Yan was satisfied after hearing her answer.

Recently, all sorts of troubles had been bugging the two of them. Even when they were alone, they could not calm down.

He was either angry or angered by her.

To be honest, he was really afraid of the endless cold war.

She was right beside him but she felt so distant and so far away.

“Do you really want to help with the investigation?” He rubbed his chin against her tender neck.
