Chapter 1807: Chapter 1808: Does the Master Really Fancy This Young Woman?
Chu Aotian paused for a moment, then smiled broadly, placing his large, strong hand on her shoulder with a hearty laugh, "I didnāt help you for a reward. You donāt need to feel any burden. Besides, havenāt you already thanked me?"
He pulled out an A4 paper and waved it in front of Rong Yan, his mature face smiling as he said, "I really like this. Iām sure my wife will like it too."
Rong Yan pursed her lips, touched by his warmth, and offered again, "Mr. Nie, if itās convenient, when we get to Capital City, Iād like to invite you and your wife to dinner."
She hurriedly spoke before Chu Aotian, "I know with Mr. Nieās status, you surely donāt lack money or invitations. I mean nothing else ā just pure gratitude for your help. No matter how easy it might have been for you to help me, it was like saving my life."
"I originally wanted to say that if you ever need help in the future, Iāll do my utmost."
She smiled, her beautiful eyes candid and clear, "But that seems too insincere. No matter how I look at it, with my abilities, there wonāt be a day I can truly help."
Chu Aotian listened quietly to her words, gently without interrupting, allowing her to finish.
Rong Yan took a deep breath and said sincerely again, "So, if thereās an opportunity, Iād like to invite you and your wife for a meal and act as your temporary guide, showing you around Capital City."
She hastened to add while waving her hand, "Thatās just a thought of mine, itās okay if itās inconvenient for you."
She could tell that this āMr. Nieā was out of the ordinary, and he might not have time for her meal or need her to guide him around Capital City.
So after expressing her thoughts, she quickly added another line.
"If itās inconvenient, just pretend I never mentioned it."
Chu Aotianās tea-brown eyes lit up with amusement, "Youāve already said it, and Iāve heard it, it seems I canāt just pretend you didnāt say it."
"..." Rong Yan felt a bit awkward.
He clasped his hands behind his back, saying steadily, "I mentioned to you yesterday about my wifeās situation, sheās been downcast and unwell because of our lost daughter, and she doesnāt really like meeting unfamiliar people. As for the meal, Iāll ask her opinion when we reach Capital City. If sheās willing, we can have a meal together. If not, itās okay, Iāve received your sentiment. Like I said, I helped you purely because you resemble my wife in her youth, reminding me of my lost daughter. So, no need to feel burdened."
"Thereās a bakery up ahead, letās go. The coffee by the Rhine is very authentic, you probably havenāt tried it, want to give it a shot?"
Since heād put it this way, persisting in expressing gratitude would seem overly pretentious, so Rong Yan glanced toward the riverside cafĆ© and nodded, "Sure."
"Letās go."
They walked ahead, while actually followed by quite a few people. The bodyguards around Chu Aotian were no ordinary individuals; they blended almost perfectly into the crowd.
Even so, their attention to Rong Yan did not wane.
For one simple reason ā besides his wife, the master had never shown such interest in anyone else. How many times had he smiled at that young girl today!
The master not only intervened in the mercenaryās affairs to help this girl but also personally wanted to bring her back to the country...
