Chapter: 349
He still thought it was something else, only to find out it was because of this.
Dong Ruolin shook her head and gathered her courage to continue, saying, "Ye Chen, actually...actually I know that you not only saved me yesterday but also the time before at the Jinling Hotel."
Ye Chen's heart skipped a beat. How did Dong Ruolin know about what happened before? She shouldn't have known it!
He quickly denied it, saying, "You must be mistaken! I never went to any Jinling Hotel, and whoever saved you was definitely someone else."
Dong Ruolin looked at Ye Chen with complex eyes, filled with unwillingness, love, and an unspoken longing.
Why didn't he even think of acknowledging it? Was he really that unworthy in her eyes? He wouldn't even acknowledge having saved himself?
Thinking about this, she had tears in her eyes and said, "Back then at the Jinling Hotel, Xiao Hailong invited me to have a meal, but I was hit on by a rich second-generation man. As a result, Xiao Hailong got into trouble and was surrounded outside the hotel door. At that critical moment, he abandoned me and ran away. That's when there was this masked hero who looked like a legendary hero, beating everyone down and saving me...and you also..."
When she brought this up, Dong Ruolin's face instantly turned bright red. She had shared a physical intimacy with Ye Chen that day, and her pants had even been taken off by him......
Of course, she was also very clear that Ye Chen took off her pants in order to save her, without any ulterior motives.
Ye Chen heard this and his face turned green. Ah, Grandma, you're really opening the wrong can of worms with this kind of thing. Can he even acknowledge it himself?
Of course not!
If she lets Xiao Hulin know that she and Ye Chen have gotten involved in something like this, it would be a disaster!
"Ruolin, you've really misunderstood me," Ye Chen said. "I'm capable of fighting, but I'm definitely not your savior."
He finished speaking and quickly changed the subject: "Even if I am, it's only because I saved you once yesterday!"
Seeing Ye Chen still refusing to acknowledge it, Dong Ruolin let out a deep sigh and took out the peaceful and prosperous stone from her pocket.
"What about this stone? How do you explain it?"
Ye Chen widened his eyes in shock. Isn't that the stone he had lost for a long time? He couldn't find it anywhere, but how did it end up in Dong Ruolin's hand? Was it when she was rescued at the Jinling Hotel and he picked it up for her?
"It's no wonder I couldn't find this stone after that. It was lost then! And it just so happened to be picked up by Dong Ruolin...... This time, there's really no way to explain it anymore, I'm off..."
Ye Chen thought about this and could only put on a stiff face and pretend to be foolish, saying: "What does this mean? Isn't this just a broken stone?"
Dong Ruolin looked at Ye Chen with a serious expression, saying: "Don't lie to me. Zhang Er-mao has already told me that this stone is yours, it's called the Peaceful and Prosperous Stone, one of a kind in the world."
Ye Chen heard these words and silently cursed Zhang Er-mao in his heart, wondering how he could say everything outside.
Seeing that Dong Ruolin had caught him with solid evidence at this time, Ye Chen could only nod to acknowledge: "Alright, I admit it. I'm the one who saved you at the Jinling Hotel then. It was also by chance that I saw you. Please don't tell anyone about this!"
With Ye Chen's admission, the atmosphere between the two people became silent for a while.
Ye Chen felt embarrassed that he had hidden his identity for so long and was directly pierced through by Dong Ruolin, unsure of how to face her.
While Dong Ruolin's thoughts surged like waves, her mind was a complex web. JrNovels.com
