Chapter 887: Chapter 884: Be My Girlfriend! Part 2

"So, Xiao Hua, promise me, be my girlfriend, okay?"

Yan Bo, ever since he was young, never failed to get what he wanted.

As long as he desired, he always found a way to hold it all in the palm of his hand.

However, the human heart is so elusive; what he wants doesn’t necessarily come as he wishes.

Fortunately, he had plenty of patience and thought, willing to move and soften her gradually with actions and sincerity.

If he couldn’t fully confirm her feelings before tonight, then when she walked step by step toward him just now, he could almost confirm that her feelings for him mirrored his own for her.

Such feelings could never exist between ordinary friends but were, instead, the longing and dependency found between lovers.

Tong Xiaohua first panicked in fear and the terror of potentially losing him, and then, she became utterly overwhelmed by his cajoling affection, rendering her IQ completely offline.

Once she regained her composure, with her IQ and sanity back online, and heard his string of heartfelt confessions, she was both moved and incredulous.

She gazed intently at his handsome profile, "What did you say?"

It wasn’t that she was being coquettish, but rather, she truly feared she had heard wrong!

Indeed, after the ordeal and struggle she had just been through, she had come to see her own heart clearly.

At this moment, not to mention his request for her to be his girlfriend, even if he proposed to her, she might actually not be able to help herself from agreeing to him.

He probably wouldn’t know, the moment he pulled her into his arms, she almost broke down in tears on the spot.

Even now, she longed for the warmth of his embrace and the comforting scent that made her feel at peace.

Yan Bo turned his head to face her in the darkness of the night.

Clearly, the light was not bright.

But each could seemingly see two dancing red hearts in the other’s eyes.

"Please, be my girlfriend!"

This time, Yan Bo didn’t use a question, but a command.

This time, Tong Xiaohua didn’t hesitate and nodded quickly.

But as if he hadn’t seen her nod, Yan Bo asked again, "Good? Or not good?"

He hoped she would give him an answer with her own words.

Tong Xiaohua felt he was deliberately trying to embarrass her, so she glared at him, but still said softly, "Good!"

Yan Bo’s lips curled up, and once again he leaned in close, this time, his lips met hers.

The slight brushing of his lips, like a dragonfly skimming water, made her feel as if her lips had been set ablaze, scorching hot to the point of frightening her.

As if afraid of scaring her, Yan Bo lightly kissed her once and then parted his lips, but he raised his hand to pull her into his arms.

"In the future, you’re not allowed to do like tonight, not telling me anything and going alone to such a dangerous place, understood?" Yan Bo whispered into her ear.

Tong Xiaohua felt a bit troubled, she lifted her head in his arms, and declared somewhat urgently.

"But, these are the things I have to face every day, I can’t, for your sake, abandon everything from the Tong family."

Yan Bo gently pushed her away, holding her shoulders with both hands, looking straight into her eyes.

"I don’t mean for you to abandon the Tong family, and I understand that this is your job, but before you do something dangerous, you need to tell me, at least let me have some mental preparation, understand?"

Yan Bo dared not say he could be much help, after all, his influence in L City only came from the power borrowed from his father, which made people show him some deference. He had to admit, he hadn’t yet established his own power, and what he could do to help Tong Xiaohua was indeed very limited.

But as her boyfriend, even if he could not be part of her life and work, he at least deserved to have the right to know.

Of course, this is an exception for matters involving the Tong Family’s secrets.

Tong Xiaohua thought about it and felt his request was not unreasonable.

"Alright, I will try to report to you in advance about any dangerous matters, as long as time and circumstances permit," she promised.

Having received her assurance, Yan Bo clasped the back of her head and planted a firm kiss on her lips.

"Shall I take you home?"

After the earlier dispute, she must certainly long for a hot bath at home, followed by a restful lie-down on the bed to relax and unwind.

Tong Xiaohua nodded, "Mmm..."

Just as Yan Bo had guessed, although it wasn’t her first time dealing with such matters at night, she felt mentally and physically exhausted each time.

Moreover, her sudden transition from being Yan Bo’s friend to girlfriend in the span of one night had left her head spinning.

At that moment, the considerate Yan Bo chose a "Little Serenade," the light melody echoing softly in the car.

Amidst the music, she heard his low yet tender voice instructing her, "Lower the chair a bit, lie down, and I’ll wake you when we arrive."

She uttered an obedient "Oh...," adjusted the chair as he had said, and leaned back.

Once her inner panic and insecurity dissipated, she felt a sense of lethargy and tiredness take over.

She closed her eyes, and soon she was deep in dreamland.

When she woke up, the first thing she saw was Yan Bo’s handsome profile.

Looking around, she realized the car was parked right outside her house.

"Awake?"

Yan Bo, who had turned his head at the slight sound, asked with concern.

"Yes, why didn’t you wake me up?"

Tong Xiaohua lifted the blanket that had been placed over her without her knowledge, unfastened her seat belt, and propped herself up in the chair.

"We just arrived, I was thinking about whether to wake you or not when you woke up."

Yan Bo had not lied, it was just that he had driven especially slowly on the way, allowing Tong Xiaohua to indulge in a long, pleasant dream.

Tong Xiaohua glanced at the car’s digital clock, and although she found it strange, she didn’t question it further.

"Do you want to come in for a bit?"

It was getting late that day, and Tong Xiaohua had no intention of asking him to go for a walk, but if he felt like coming in to sit for a while, maybe have some tea, she was open to the idea.

Yan Bo also glanced at the digital clock and hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he shook his head, "Some other time, it’s getting late, you should go back and sleep early."

Tong Xiaohua nodded, opened the car door, and stepped out.

Yan Bo also got out of the car, walked over to her, and gently embraced her, "Go and have a hot bath, then sleep well. I won’t send you a message tonight since it’s late; I don’t want to disturb your sleep."

Tong Xiaohua wanted to say it didn’t matter, but in the end, she didn’t say anything.

Yan Bo let her go and pecked lightly on her lips, "Go inside, goodnight."

"Goodnight!"

Tong Xiaohua looked back three steps at a time as she entered the house, waving at him to prompt him to get back into the car.

She only closed the door after she saw him sit back in the car, start it, and drive away.

"Xiao Hua, was that Young Master Yan who dropped you off again?"
