Chapter 1734 - Nuannuan’s Words Are Irrefutable

“That’s because you think such a trivial matter like that would be easy for him to investigate. So, Nuannuan, why are you happy and admiring when I’m the one to do it?”

Nuannuan was stunned.

“That’s because you never needed to rely on me from the very beginning. You never considered using my power to protect you. You may love me emotionally, but when facing difficulties, you only turn to yourself.

“Every time I go on a mission, you worry that something will happen to me. You even wanted to study medicine because you didn’t trust me to handle myself on missions alone. Every time I went on one, you’d rack your brain trying to think of ways to get to me because you didn’t believe I could return unharmed.”

Nuannuan, “…”

“Before I got together with you, I always believed that my martial prowess was unmatched in this world. I was a man standing at the top of the world. I believed that in the future, my woman, whomever she may be, would certainly be proud of me.

“Who knew that my woman would end up being a woman standing at the top of the world on the opposite side of the world? Your strength and power had shattered the confidence that I once had, in a way.

“What should I do, Nuannuan? In front of you, I don’t feel confident anymore. I want to give you more, I want you to rely on me—but you have always exceeded my expectations.”

Nuannuan blinked her eyes a few times, not speaking. She looked seriously at Big Brother Chi Yang’s conflicted expression—this was the first time she had seen him with this particular expression. Finally, she asked, “Are you done?”

“Yes. I don’t know if you will understand.”

Nuannuan reached out her hand, using her index finger to gently caress the tip of Chi Yang’s nose.

She treated his nose like a work of art that had been meticulously carved and polished by God. The edges and corners of it were clearly defined.

“Big Brother Chi Yang, you seem to have forgotten something.”

Nuannuan’s voice was very sweet, slow, and gentle—like a melodious piece of music. Just like a tune from a piano, pearls seemed to fall from the sky as she spoke, gently bouncing off the floor with every syllable.

Chi Yang was attracted by the sound of her voice, but it brought up a situation in his mind that he did not want to recall at the moment.

“What?” he asked in a hoarse voice.

“If it weren’t for you, Wei Du’s missiles would have killed me. I may be strong, but no one can ever be strong enough to withstand a missile attack, right?”

Chi Yang, “…”

“That doesn’t count. If it weren’t for my ability unexpectedly upgrading, you wouldn’t even have been trapped in that hotel, and Wei Du wouldn’t have been able to do anything to you.”

“Why wouldn’t he? Wei Du was deranged. He was trying to kill me, at any cost. But because I was too impulsive, I didn’t have any intention of staying at the Phoenix Pavilion. Instead, I wanted to mess with him. I thought that at most, he would only use weapons from his helicopter. Who could have guessed that he would bring a fighter jet with missiles? Even if I had left the hotel sooner, he would have been able to obliterate me as long as he knew my approximate location.”

Nuannuan’s words were irrefutable.

If it had not been for Chi Yang, her stubborn character would have landed her in a fight with Wei Du.

If it had not been for Chi Yang’s power upgrade, she would have surely died.
