Tokyo: The story begins with a confession.

Page 189

The second one is the character 缘 (yuan, meaning fate or destiny).

The word "缘" (yuan, meaning fate or destiny) is magical.

If Shang Binqian feels that he is destined to be with someone, he will help them, just like he did with Yunyun's grandfather this time.

The first time Shang Binqian met Yun Yun was on the train.

In the vast city of Qinghai, the two met again less than half a day after their first encounter at the newly opened Tao Ren Ju restaurant of the Yun family. This was fate.

Despite his desire to sever the relationship, Shang Binqian found himself in a predicament.

First, he listened to Su Mengning's words, and then she cried and begged him not to let go, so he had no choice but to agree to her request and cure her grandfather's cold poison.

"Yun'er, I'm not a savior, saving the world from suffering or anything like that. I think you should let me rest for a bit..." Shang Binqian smiled helplessly.

Yun Yun wanted to say something, but when she saw Shang Binqian's expression, she stopped talking about it.

"That's right, Shang Binqian, you're not a saint, there's really no need for you to do that, but are you leaving now?"

Shang Binqian nodded and said, "Yes, the matter is resolved. I should go now."

"And what about you? Will you come looking for me again? No, you won't contact me again, will you?" As Yun Yun said this, she gripped Shang Binqian's hand tighter and tighter, her beautiful eyes fixed on Shang Binqian's face. At this moment, she only had eyes for Shang Binqian.

"Yun'er, don't worry, I'll stay in Qinghai City for a while. Maybe when I have nothing to do, I'll ask you out for a meal. After all, I've already wasted so much energy trying to cure your grandfather's cold poison; you should treat me to a meal or something, right?"

Shang Binqian chuckled, and this smile, which carried an extraordinary air, made Yun Yun feel at ease.

“Okay, you said it yourself. If you don’t come to me, I’ll get angry! And the consequences of my anger are terrible!” Yun Yun’s tone carried a hint of teasing and cute threat. Shang Binqian couldn’t help but ask, “Terrible? Then tell me how terrible it is.”

Yun Yun's previous statement was just an expression, but she didn't know that Shang Binqian was still insisting on discussing this topic.

This left Yunyun at a loss, unsure how to respond to Shang Binqian.

"Of course, if this really makes me angry, then I will... I will..."

"What could it be?" Shang Binqian's face was full of amusement.

How could he not know that Yun Yun was joking? In fact, seeing her in such a terrifying state, Shang Binqian couldn't help but want to tease her.

"I...I will do something that will bring you and me into this terrible relationship!"

After saying that, Yun Yun was completely stunned.

She never imagined that she would say such embarrassing things in a moment of impulse. Oh no, what should she do now? What if Shang Binqian really believed her and thought she was a very promiscuous woman?

Not to mention Yun Yun, even Shang Binqian himself was stunned. He didn't expect this little girl to have such low emotional intelligence, saying such things when he casually teased her.

Just as Yun Yun was about to explain, Shang Binqian spoke up.

He looked at Yun Yun with feigned shock.

“I never expected you to be like this, Yun’er. I considered you my best friend, but you're always thinking about me! It really hurts me.”

If there were any other men here, they would definitely say that Shang Binqian is shameless when they see his face.

Even with a beauty like Yun Yun throwing herself at him, he's still pretending!

Shang Binqian was just joking when he said that, but Yun Yun actually believed him.

A hint of guilt crossed her beautiful face, and tears welled in her beautiful eyes.

Shang Binqian... I was just talking nonsense. Don't believe me, really. I'm not that kind of woman. I've never even held a boy's hand, let alone done *that*. I'm really not that kind of woman..."

Seeing Yun Yun's crying expression, Shang Binqian's lips twitched, thinking to himself, "Doesn't this little girl know that he's joking?"

So he quickly said, "Yun'er, don't overthink it. I never thought you were a casual woman. In my eyes, you are almost a perfect goddess, just a little silly and cute."

"Really? Shang Binqian, you really don't think I'm that kind of promiscuous woman?" Yun Yun stopped crying and looked at Shang Binqian.

"Of course it's true. Would I lie to you?"

Shang Binqian smiled helplessly.

"Yes, I believe in you, Shang Binqian."

Yunyun smiled happily.

At this moment, Shang Binqian said to Yun Yun with a solemn expression, "But there is one thing I hope Yun'er can promise me."

"What is it?" Yun Yun asked, a puzzled expression on her pretty face.

Shang Binqian stared at Yun Yun, then said earnestly:

"In the future, when you have nothing to do, you can go online more often, check out some Baidu Tieba forums and watch some online videos. It will be good for you."

Yunyun: ...

Watching Baidu Tieba and online videos?

What does Shang Binqian mean?

Yunyun didn't quite understand.

When Shang Binqian saw Yun Yun's adorable appearance, he sighed helplessly.

Yunyun is too naive. She needs to experience the influence of new ideas online. Otherwise, if Shang Binqian makes jokes with her using popular internet memes at this stage, she will take them seriously.

But now it seems she doesn't even know what Baidu Tieba and online videos are.

"Although I don't know what you said, Shang Binqian, I think Baidu Tieba and Neihan Duan seem to be very powerful. I will listen to you and search online whenever I have nothing to do."

Yun Yun nodded, agreeing to go up to 807 Binqian's request.

"By the way, Shang Binqian, do you have to leave now? If you want to go anywhere, let my private driver take you to your place?"

Seeing that it was getting late, Yunyun decided to have someone drive Binqian back home.

However, Shang Binqian shook his head and refused.

"No, I live not far from here, it only takes ten or twenty minutes to get there."

Seeing Shang Binqian's insistence, Yunyun nodded obediently, then stood at the gate and waved goodbye to Shang Binqian.

After leaving the Yun family, Shang Binqian was on his way back to Tonghua Apartment.

Because it's less than 10 kilometers from Tonghua Apartment, it's only a ten to twenty-minute drive from Shang Binqian.

To Shang Binqian's surprise, just as he reached the roadside, a silver Audi A4 drove towards him from a distance and stopped beside him, seemingly targeting him specifically.

This made Shang Binqian frown slightly, wondering if it was either Bard or Leng Feng coming to cause him trouble? Or perhaps someone from the Yun family?

After all, there are still some people in the Yun family who don't like him.

But just as Shang Binqian became suspicious, the door of the silver Audi A4 was opened, and a pair of crystal-clear, white legs suddenly came into Shang Binqian's view. Looking at these legs, which were enough to make any man go crazy and rush to lick them, Shang Binqian was stunned, thinking that perhaps it was someone Leng Feng and the others had called?

Chapter 325 Disguise

Human skin mask disguise technique.

It is said that this is a unique skill created by a master of disguise. He can change his appearance in one second. He used to fool many people with this unique skill. After all, with such a skill, he can basically become anyone.

However, in recent decades, Shang Binqian has heard from his master, Master Zhe Sanye, that the master who created this disguise technique may have retired or disappeared, and that he will never appear again.

His disguise skills also disappeared.

Today, Shang Binqian was surprised to see Yan Ruhua tear off the human skin mask from her face. He thought, "Is Yan Ruhua the legendary master of disguise?"

"This is truly shocking; I never expected you to resort to such methods."

Shang Binqian nodded, then asked, "Miss Ruhua, were you the famous Thousand-Faced Fox from ** decades ago?"

"Thousand-Faced Fox? What's that? Handsome Shang Binqian, have you been reading too many martial arts novels? This face-changing mask I have is a self-defense artifact recently developed by our company. Even if you're walking alone at night, as long as you wear our self-defense mask, you won't be in any danger. Would you like me to give some to your friends to try?"

Yan Ruhua wore a hint of pride on her face.

Shang Binqian found Yan Ruhua's explanation a bit funny, but when he thought about it carefully, he realized that she seemed to be a plastic surgeon, so it wasn't surprising that she had this ability.

"No, my friends don't need these."

Shang Binqian shook his head.

"Oh, right. After all, they have handsome Shang Binqian to protect them, so they really don't need this kind of thing. I only wear this ugly mask to protect myself. Sigh, if only I had someone as capable as handsome Shang Binqian." Yan Ruhua said, feigning sadness.

Shang Binqian smiled helplessly upon seeing this: "Miss Hua, I don't think you need to wear such a mask to protect yourself. After all, society is quite safe these days; unless you're extremely unlucky, you're unlikely to encounter any bad things."

"Really? Does Shang Binqian know how many men have lewd glances and harassed me when I don't wear this anti-wolf device developed by the company for a day? I can tell you with certainty that it happens almost all day long, but what can I do? I have such a good-looking face."

After saying this, Yan Ruhua stared at Shang Binqian and asked, "Handsome Shang Binqian, do you want to be my man?"

This sudden remark left Shang Binqian completely stunned.

"Haha, Miss Ruhua, are you joking?"

"Just call me Flower. I like being called that. Do you think I'm joking?"

Yan Ruhua directly extended her delicate hand and grasped Shang Binqian's palm, displaying her seriousness.

"flower?"

Shang Binqian thinks this name is too ambiguous, right?

"Why? Don't you want to call me that? Let me tell you, there are only two people in the world who can call me that, and you are one of them," Yan Ruhua said seriously.

Shang Binqian knew this tactic, so he said, "The other one is your father, right?"

Little did he know that Shang Binqian was wrong this time.

"Father? Oh, I don't have a father."

When Shang Binqian mentioned her father, a disdainful sneer appeared on her beautiful face.

This made Shang Binqian realize that he had said the wrong thing.

“Handsome, you guessed wrong. The other one is my brother, but unfortunately he went missing ten years ago.”

Yan Ruhua seemed to have returned to normal, looking at him with a hint of amusement on her pretty face.

Shang Binqian quickly changed the subject, saying, "Then why did you choose me? I don't think you're the kind of woman who lacks men?"

“You’re right. Although I don’t lack men, and I don’t lack reliable men, I have never met a man who can give me a sense of security like Shang Binqian.”

Yan Ruhua smiled sweetly, and she was very charming.

This made Shang Binqian shake his head and smile helplessly.

"Miss Ruhua..."
