Misa watched her father walk in with a big smile, quickly letting go of Long Yi's hand and feeling a bit embarrassed as she looked at her father. "Father, you're back so early? We haven't decided where to go yet."
"There's nothing much today, so I came back early. I remember you said you wanted to visit Las Vegas, right? You said it's the city of weddings, the city of death, and also a paradise for vacations!" Yamamoto Kazuo noticed the subtle interaction between them as soon as he entered. However, from Long Yi's treatment of Misa lately, it seemed he regarded her more as a sister than as a woman.
"Misa, then let's go to Las Vegas!" Before Misa could respond, Long Yi had already spoken up.
"Oh, okay!" Misa seemed a bit dazed; Las Vegas was the city she had longed to visit. She, Yamamoto Misa, was finally going there.
Wushuang's days remained simple, while Yezi seemed to be living a much richer life. Faisal did not restrict her outings; whenever he had time, he would accompany her to explore the world-renowned gambling city!
Today, Yezi brought many fresh items for Wushuang. Looking at the smile on Yezi's face and reflecting on her own situation, Wushuang couldn't help but feel a pang of bitterness.
"Wushuang, what's wrong?" Yezi noticed the expression on her face. Usually, when she brought things over, Wushuang was very happy, wasn't she? What was going on today?
"Nothing, I just envy how freely you can live your life. As for me, aside from those two times I escaped and the last camping trip, I've never stepped out of that big door. Can you understand how that feels?" Wushuang held Yezi's hand and spoke earnestly.
Yezi understood Wushuang's feelings. Having been with Wushuang for so long, she knew how Wushuang spent her days. But what could be done? That man would not easily let Wushuang go.
"I understand your feelings; I really do. It's just that encountering such a man makes it hard to live as freely as before. So you have to be strong and hold on. I believe there will be a day when you can be free!" Wushuang listened intently to Yezi's words with a furrowed brow.
Rafas stood high atop the ancient castle, watching the two women in the garden. They always enjoyed chatting in the backyard. Looking at Little Woman’s melancholic expression made him wonder what she was thinking about.
After saying goodbye to Yezi, Wushuang returned to her room with the little gifts she had received. He hadn’t gone out today but wasn’t in the room either; he must be in his study.
That mysterious study—she had once entered it under special circumstances and saw that all the curtains were drawn tight, leaving it completely dark inside. It was spacious with a sofa and coffee table and a large desk. She felt that her broken jade pendant must be hidden somewhere on that desk!
Sitting on the big bed with a pillow in her arms, she took out the replica jade pendant he had made later. Although it wasn’t the one that belonged to her, it was the only thing she could hold onto for memories.
Rafas leaned back on the comfortable leather sofa and opened a drawer to take out those broken pieces of jade pendant. He gazed at them for a long time, reflecting on everything since Little Woman appeared in his life. It seemed that deep down, she still longed to leave him.
He placed the fragments back into the drawer, extinguished the cigar in his hand, and strode out of the mysterious study...
That night, a man and a woman were tightly entwined, creating beautiful music together.
"Baby, tell me, do you want to leave here?" Rafas asked her this very realistic question while holding her slender waist.
Yan Wushuang's face turned crimson as she looked at the man on top of her. She tightly grasped his arm and shook her head.
In truth, she wanted to leave desperately, wishing she could escape from this beast's side immediately. But she didn't dare; she knew what the consequences of such an answer would be. She had to learn to protect herself!
Rafas had long seen through her inner thoughts. Her response was still within his expectations. Although she wanted to leave, she had learned to be obedient and did not dare to provoke him easily again.
The room was filled with heat, mixed with the man's heavy breathing. The long night continued until a hint of light appeared on the horizon, bringing silence back to the room.
"Long Yi, come on up! We're about to set off!" After a night of excitement, Misa had already packed her luggage early in the morning and tossed it into the helicopter.
Yamamoto Kazuo was still explaining some matters regarding their outing to Long Yi while Misa hurriedly urged him on. It seemed she was truly eager to depart.
Looking at his daughter already seated in the helicopter, Yamamoto Kazuo smiled at Long Yi and said, "Alright, you two can go without worry. Misa can't wait any longer. The bodyguards will protect you from the shadows; just enjoy yourselves!"
"Mr. Yamamoto, then we are off!" Long Yi politely returned the gesture and boarded the private plane, flying towards that unfamiliar city.
On the plane, Long Yi gazed at the scenery below in astonishment. He never expected that this thing could fly; it was so magical!
Misa laughed as she explained to him bit by bit how airplanes could fly. When they arrived in this world-renowned city, Long Yi suddenly felt a strong sense that something would happen here or that he would meet someone.
The journey to Las Vegas began. Misa excitedly pulled Long Yi around to explore various places and even took him to a casino for a firsthand experience. It was Long Yi's first time seeing these blonde-haired, green-eyed Americans, and he curiously stared at them, causing Misa to apologize several times for his curiosity.
For some reason, Yan Wushuang's desire to leave grew stronger over these past few days. Several times when she saw Rafas heading out, it felt as if she wanted to rush over and beg him to take her out for a look!
That morning, Wushuang unexpectedly woke up early. The man beside her was still fast asleep, but his large hand remained tightly wrapped around her waist. She slightly shifted her body, and the man immediately opened his dark eyes to look at her.
"What's wrong? Why are you awake so early today? Did I not feed you well last night?" Rafas's arm tightened around her as he looked at her startled little face, leaning in mischievously.
"No... it's not that. I have something to tell you. I've been thinking about it for days, and today I just can't hold it in anymore, so I couldn't sleep!" Her voice was a bit stammering, revealing how nervous she was.
Rafas held her with one arm while propping his head up with the other, waiting for her to continue. He was curious about what she wanted to say.
Seeing him silently watching her, Wushuang decided to take the plunge. Gritting her teeth, she softly began, "I want to go out shopping like Yezi. Can you take me out, or let someone accompany me?"
She finally said it, but Rafas showed no reaction, quietly observing her tense little face.
Wushuang noticed his silence and seemed to have received an answer. Lowering her head and casting her eyes downwards, tears began to well up in her eyes, red and glistening, looking utterly disappointed and wronged.
Seeing that she appeared deeply aggrieved, Rafas finally spoke slowly, "Where do you want to go? But if you can get up later, I'll let you go out!"
"Ah...?" When he first spoke, Wushuang felt a surge of excitement; however, his next words left her a bit confused.
Rafas didn’t give her time to process it. He flipped over and pinned her beneath him once again, reenacting a passionate scene!
Even though she felt sore all over, it took Yan Wushuang quite some time to stand up. Nevertheless, she insisted on going out. When Yezi received Mike's call, she was equally surprised that the man actually agreed to let Wushuang go shopping.
Wushuang tidied herself up a bit; she didn’t want to look so haggard and pale. She wore a floral dress and draped a pure white lace shawl over it. The elegant yet playful outfit made Rafas regret his earlier decision.
He shouldn’t have agreed to let her go out. Looking at her beautiful appearance made him curse inwardly; he wondered how many men would be eyeing such a stunning woman!
"What’s wrong?" Yan Wushuang turned around and saw Rafas standing behind her. Noticing his silence made her think he might be having second thoughts again.
Rafas's deep black eyes were fixed on her. This damned little enchantress emitted a fragrance that stirred something within him; if they stayed together like this, they probably wouldn’t be able to leave the house today at all.
"Nothing much, just change your clothes and come downstairs. Mike will be with you all day, and I'll join you for dinner tonight!" Rafas said as he stepped out of the room and headed downstairs.
Yan Wushuang stood there foolishly, and only when she realized his voice and figure had disappeared from her sight did she hurriedly grab a small handbag beside her and rush downstairs to find Mike!
"Miss Wushuang, are you ready? The master has already left, and Miss Yi is waiting for us at the destination!" Mike, wearing sunglasses today, was not accompanying Rafas to the company but was instead going to spend the whole day shopping with her.
It was nice to say he was accompanying her shopping, but it could also be seen as surveillance!
Yan Wushuang nodded and smiled, saying, "I'm ready, let's go!"
In front of a tall building in Las Vegas, Shouya and Yezi had been waiting for them. Half an hour later, they finally saw Mike bringing Wushuang to the front of the building.
"Yezi, sorry to keep you waiting," Wushuang said apologetically as she looked at them. It was all her fault for being too nervous; she had changed several outfits and took some time to get ready, which delayed everything.
"Alright, alright, let's go inside. This place is a gathering spot for major international brands; I think we should just browse around here!" Shouya and Mike dared not take her around too much; the best method was to stay in the mall where it was easier to protect her.
Wushuang looked at the tall building in front of her; it was really beautiful! If such architecture existed in the Great Yan Kingdom, it would surely impress other nations!
Yezi took her hand and led her into the building while Shouya and Mike followed behind them. The dazzling array of products inside left Wushuang in awe; after a few months in this world, it was the first time she had seen so many amazing things!
Shouya understood women very well; without hesitation, he guided the two girls through various luxury stores. Clothes, bags, accessories, perfumes—anything that piqued Yan Wushuang's curiosity she wanted. She had no concept of money here and didn't realize how expensive those items were. However, with Shouya and Mike around, getting what she wanted was not a problem at all.
