My Brilliant CEO Wife

Chapter 123 The Effectiveness of Sweet Nothings


"Chu Yan, it's getting late, I'm going to head back now!" Zhao Shishi stood up around ten o'clock and said to Chu Yan.

"Oh, why don't you stay here and sleep for the night?" Chu Yan hugged Zhao Shishi's arm tightly, refusing to let her leave!

"I'd better not, if I stay, won't your husband eat me alive? I'd better go back!" Zhao Shishi said with a smile, then waved goodbye and prepared to walk out.

"Yun Hao, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and escort Shishi home. Don't come back until you've dropped her at her doorstep!" Chu Yan grabbed Yun Hao, who was still sitting on the sofa, and with a wave of her hand sent him out.

Yun Hao was waiting for this from Chu Yan, and upon hearing it, he immediately jumped up.

"There's no need, Shishi. I have a car, it's already past ten, and if Yun Hao escorts me and comes back, it will be half-past eleven, that's too late!" Zhao Shishi refused.

"It's okay, it doesn't matter. Let him go. Nothing will happen even if he comes back late; no one will rob him on the way!" Chu Yan said carelessly.

"Manager Zhao, let's go, I'll take you home!" Yun Hao spoke as he led the way out, not giving Zhao Shishi a chance to refuse!

Yun Hao drove the car, with Zhao Shishi sitting in the passenger seat. But until the car had driven far, neither of them spoke, as neither knew where to start!

"Hey, little Shishi, why aren't you saying anything?" Yun Hao finally broke the silence, they couldn't keep being awkward like this!

"You should call me Manager Zhao from now on!"

"Why? That seems so distant. Did I do something to upset you?" Hearing Zhao Shishi speak, Yun Hao felt relieved. It's not the refusal that scares him, it's the silence!

"No, you didn't upset me. I just don't want things to continue like this anymore. We've already gone wrong, and I don't want to keep making mistakes!" Zhao Shishi said seriously and earnestly.

"No, I don't think so, I don't believe we're wrong. Do you honestly feel nothing for me? There's nothing wrong with mutual attraction, everything falling into place naturally, willing feelings." Yun Hao parked the car at the side of the road, addressing Zhao Shishi with equal seriousness.

"I understand all this, but..."

"There's no but about it. Anyway, you can only be my little Shishi this lifetime!" Yun Hao interrupted Zhao Shishi's words decisively and dominantly, then opened his arms to embrace her.

"But you are Chu Yan's husband, I can't betray Chu Yan!" Zhao Shishi said tearfully. This indeed reflected her innermost thoughts. When she decided to get involved with Yun Hao, she considered that one day Yun Hao's wife might confront her, but she could leave Nanjiang City for this.

"It's not you who's betraying Chu Yan; if anyone did something wrong, it must be me. But if I say that being with you feels like real love, would you believe me?" Yun Hao gently comforted Zhao Shishi's back, taking all responsibility upon himself, then expressed his feelings from the heart.

"I believe you, but it's still impossible. We should end things here. You don't say anything, I won't either; let's keep our superior-subordinate relationship!" Although Zhao Shishi felt happy hearing Yun Hao's words, she forcefully pushed him away and continued to say: "Drive on!"

Seeing Zhao Shishi's determination, Yun Hao didn't insist further. But when he dropped her off at her doorstep, he softly said: "Regardless of whether you agree or not, I won't give up, and I don't think I've done anything wrong."

After leaving Zhao Shishi's house, Yun Hao felt that what he said was simply splendid. How come those romantic words were so perfect? It must've been that Tank who corrupted him!

Upon returning to the villa, Yun Hao just turned off the car when he sensed something odd—there was an air of hostility nearby. Could it be another ambush in the surrounding area? Could that organization be causing trouble again?

Suddenly, Yun Hao noticed a group of people dressed in black quietly lurking around Chu Yan's villa, moving systematically towards the corners of the villa!

Looking at these people, Yun Hao frowned because the deadly atmosphere he felt just now definitely wasn't emitted by these people. It was from someone in persistent killing, definitely not weaker than Cyan Dragon.

These people sneaking toward the villa are just ordinary assassins; otherwise, why would so many assassins execute a task together?

Yun Hao first called Chu Yan, instructing her along with Su Qiao and Aunt Wu to hide in Su Qiao's room, then walked down with a smile, standing quietly about ten meters away from these assassins, observing.

Unbeknownst to Yun Hao, a man nearby Romance's villa also saw him.

"Why is Asura here?"

"I don't know either, the intelligence didn't mention Asura being here!" The person next to the man whispered in reply.

"Notify the organization, plans have changed. They should first investigate Asura's purpose here. If Asura isn't related to this mission, we'll proceed; if there's any relation, then it should be otherwise!"

As the words fell, the two quietly slipped away, and at the moment they left, Yun Hao seemed to sense something and glanced in that direction, feeling the deadly aura vanish!

Had Yun Hao known that his sudden appearance saved Romance's mother and daughter, he would probably be smug all over; it's like a tree casting shadows due to its reputation!

"Boss, the higher-ups said to take Chu Yan back, what about the other girl?"

"Nonsense, capture both. Deliver Chu Yan for the mission, and we brothers can enjoy the other one!"

"Yes, yes, the boss is smart!"

"Stop the nonsense, kick in the door, the guy shouldn't return soon, grab them and leave!"

Yun Hao stood nearby, listening to the conversation of two men in black, feeling somewhat amused. These guys were so unprofessional—they should eliminate witnesses!

Seeing these fellows being so sloppy, Yun Hao wasn't in a hurry to intervene. Watching them break down the door and rush in, he calmly followed them inside just like that!
