Chapter: 2932

As she said this, Su Ruo Li became slightly melancholic and whispered: "So... I hope to stay by Leaf Master's side, on one hand to do something for Leaf Master if I can, and on another hand to continue receiving Leaf Master's protection..."

As He Yingxiao suddenly realized, his daughter and he were actually quite different.

In the past, I had served as Su Shoudao's bodyguard with my whole heart and soul, even sacrificing my youth for him. I had also given birth to Ruo Li, which meant that I was dedicating the second half of my life to him as well.

But it's different for Ruo Li because this young master is her savior. If she were to stay by his side, it wouldn't just be me sacrificing myself for him.

So, naturally, her life won't be like mine, filled with sorrow.

Therefore, I quickly spoke up and said: "Young Master, if Ruo Li gets into a mess in Japan, the Japanese people will definitely not let her go. You have the ability to rescue her from their clutches and protect her fully. As for this child, she has worked hard since childhood and is certainly talented among her peers. After you help her unlock her true potential, her abilities will undoubtedly be exceptional even among people of her age nationwide. With her by your side, she can definitely help you solve many problems, so please allow her to stay with you."

Leaf Chen's heart was actually very clear - as long as Ruo Li's corpse wasn't found, the Japanese people would never give up.

Once Ruo Li's identity is exposed, she will undoubtedly face a fatal threat.

So, staying by his side is probably the best outcome for her.

Moreover, Leaf Chen also felt that he was indeed lacking some genuine and capable assistants around him.

Huang Wu and Chen Ze Kai, or even including Song Wan Ting and other representatives from the Jinling aristocratic families, are all ordinary people with no special skills. Qin Ao Xue's current abilities may be impressive, but ultimately, she's just a young girl who is still in school. She can't possibly let her do some violent or deadly activities. So, leaving Su Ruo Li behind and cultivating her as my trusted assistant would be of great practical significance to me. Su Ruo Li not only has the ability to lead dozens of high-ranking experts in Japan but also showed strong leadership skills during her time at the Su family's estate. If I were to let her take charge and cultivate a team of formidable strength, it would be of great benefit in the future.

Thinking about this, Leaf Chen opened his mouth and said, "Ruo Li, since you're willing to stay by my side, from today onwards, you will be my person, and everything will follow my orders. I will do my best to ensure your safety, and if one day you decide to leave, you can straightforwardly tell me, and I won't force you to stay. But until then, please remember that you must not disobey or betray my trust."

Su Ruo Li heard this and hurriedly asked, "Mom, when do you plan to leave?"

Qin Ao Xue thought for a moment and said, "I told your grandfather that I'll be going to the Gelao Peninsula tomorrow to find out what's going on with you, so I'll be leaving tomorrow."

Su Ruo Li's face lit up with reluctance, like a little girl hugging her mother's arm and whining, "Mom... You've been away from me for such a long time. Can't you stay here with me for one more day?"

Qin Ao Xue sighed and said seriously, "Ruo Li, of course Mom wants to spend more time with you. Not just one more day, but even in the future, Mom is willing..."

As she spoke, Qin Ao Xue looked helpless and said, "But... everyone in the He family knows that I've exhausted myself searching for you. This time, I've even told your grandfather about it, so no matter what Leaf Chen wants to talk about or how things turn out, I'll definitely be going to the Gelao Peninsula tomorrow if I don't leave now..."

"Although I don't suspect that your grandfather would intentionally harm you," Qin Ao Xue continued, "the He family is full of people with various opinions and uncontrolled factors. We may have already broken off ties with the Su family, but I've always suspected that they're secretly observing our movements. If we let them find out that you're still alive..."

Su Ruo Li's expression immediately turned into a furious scowl as she coldly said, "Mom! The He family has been serving the Su family for so many years, and in the end, the Su family not only didn't care about our past or our relationships with them but even sold me to the Japanese Self-Defense Forces. This grudge, I'll definitely settle it in the future!"

Qin Ao Xue smiled wryly and said, "In the eyes of the Su family, we're just their paid mercenaries, like servants in ancient times who would fight for them as long as they gave us money. They think that as long as they pay us, we should be willing to die for them..."

As she spoke, she let out a deep sigh and said again, "Mom advises you not to think about settling scores with the Su family for now. The Su family's strength is far superior to anything the He family can do, no matter how hard we try... You'll follow Leaf Chen in the future and stay right by his side, without worrying about seeking revenge against the Su family..."

Su Ruo Li's eyes reddened as she began to sob, her voice trembling as she said, "I won't give up on settling scores. If it can't be done in a year, I'll do it in three or five years; if not then, I'll do it in ten or eight years... And if all else fails, I'll wait for twenty or thirty years, but one day, I'll make the Su family pay for everything!"

Qin Ao Xue said with a helpless tone, "As for matters in one's heart, mom advises you to not attach too much significance, but you yourself must control your emotions well. This is a crucial period for self-cultivation and improvement, so don't let hatred become your obsession!"

Su Ruo Li nodded slightly.

Leaf Chen spoke up at this moment, "Qin Ao Xue, you and Su Ruo Li haven't seen each other in a long time. Why don't you two go back to the room and rest for now? I'm sure there are many things you want to talk about. Later, I'll have someone bring you dinner, and if you need anything else, just contact our staff." JrNovels.com
