Chapter 772 - 748:
Zhang Bufen actually tried to use Li Ruo to coerce Ye Chen and even attempted to rape Li Ruo in front of Ye Chen. At that time, Li Ruo’s mental state completely broke down, and her emotions were greatly stimulated because of it. Now, she could finally cry her heart out in the arms of the man she liked. Such an opportunity had come far too late. Moreover, for this, Ye Chen had paid a heavy price.
"Xiao Ruo, don’t cry," Ye Chen whispered to comfort her.
At this point, Ye Chen had regained his clarity. The pain brought on by the strange mutation caused his entire body to ache unbearably. Because of the violent force, the crazy energy made Ye Chen’s ordinary body endure too much pain. This forced Ye Chen to consider going to the Ancient Lava Cave to temper his body. He had to strengthen his body, otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to withstand the side effects brought on by such energy.
"Don’t cry, I won’t!" Li Ruo hastily wiped her tears and sniffled as she said, "Ye Chen, can you promise me something?"
"Of course I can. Not just one, I’d be willing to promise you a hundred, a thousand!" Ye Chen nodded.
"Next time I’m in danger, please don’t risk your life for me again!" Li Ruo looked deeply into Ye Chen’s eyes and said, "That will only make me more upset, more heartbroken. I’ll think that I’m too useless, always causing you to nearly lose your life! So, please promise me this!"
"No, I can agree to all your requests, except this one!" Ye Chen shook his head immediately.
"You liar!" Li Ruo hysterically cursed. "You said you would agree to anything I ask, but why won’t you agree to this one?"
Li Ruo threw herself onto Ye Chen and then bit down hard on his shoulder. Ye Chen gasped in pain as her bite left a row of teeth marks on his shoulder. Li Ruo suddenly noticed the teeth marks on Ye Chen’s shoulder and asked, "Who bit this?"
Ye Chen froze, touched the row of bite wounds near his neck, and then he remembered that it was when he was having a secret affair with Dian Ling in the prison office. Ye Chen sniffed, groaned, and began to pretend to be uncomfortable. Shit, if he didn’t find a way out at this moment, and Li Ruo insisted on getting to the bottom of it, he was afraid he would be exposed. Seeing Ye Chen in discomfort, Li Ruo quickly asked, "Ye Chen, what’s wrong with you?"
