The words from Wushuang pierced Yamamoto Ryuichi's heart. How deeply he loved her, yet fate seemed to play tricks on him. Since he appeared by Wushuang's side, sharing love and understanding, why did a devil-like Rafas have to emerge? The most dramatic part was that Wushuang actually pleaded for him in front of him, repeatedly saying she had fallen for this man!
Both of them fell into silence, not speaking for a long time...
"Shuang'er, is he treating you well now?" After a long silence, he spoke again, showing concern for her.
"Yes, Lefas treats me very well. After returning from Japan, we even traveled abroad together for a while," Yan Wushuang replied honestly. Even if there were any bad aspects, she wouldn't tell him.
"Really? Then why did you run away from home? What exactly did he do to you?" He could clearly know her every move.
Yan Wushuang was surprised at how he knew about her leaving home and speculated that he must have someone following her. She felt very dissatisfied with his behavior, but what could she do?
"General, that's just a little conflict between him and me. It's already resolved now, and Lefas even underwent skin graft surgery for the scar on his face just for me. He won't have to wear a mask in public anymore." As she said this, Yan Wushuang recalled Rafas's handsome face that could easily captivate anyone.
Yamamoto Ryuichi listened to her somewhat excited words over the phone and could guess her expression; she must be extremely thrilled.
"Shuang'er, no matter what choice you make, this place in my heart will always be open for you. It will forever only hold your image!" Hearing the steady breathing from the other end of the line made his heart feel particularly heavy. Before she could say anything else, he hurriedly hung up the phone.
His princess no longer belonged to him; in body and spirit, she was completely and utterly with another man... "Goodbye, my princess..."
Yan Wushuang listened to the busy tone on the other end of the line, feeling an unbearable pain in her heart. She clenched her fists and pounded her chest; why did it suddenly feel so hard to breathe?
After switching back the SIM card and just finishing setting up the phone, it rang again. Yan Wushuang looked at the name on the screen but felt too upset to answer.
She turned off her phone and rolled down the car window, instructing her bodyguard and driver to get in: "I don't want to go back so early. Drive around nearby for a while before heading back."
"Yes, ma'am!" The driver replied respectfully.
Yan Wushuang leaned against the window, watching the diverse crowd outside, reminiscing about her moments with the general. It felt as if those memories were right before her eyes, but now everything had changed, leaving her with a pang of heartache.
Rafas knew she had gone to An Xin Ya today and thought to check if she had returned. However, after making over a dozen calls that went unanswered, he finally got through, only for her to suddenly turn off her phone. When he called again, it was still switched off!
“Mike... find out who took the lady out today and get me their phone number immediately... hurry!!!” The more he thought about it, the more worried he became. Was something wrong with her?
Mike quickly contacted the driver and bodyguard, retrieving their phone numbers right away. Rafas held the phone in his hand and chose to call the bodyguard.
Sitting in the passenger seat, bodyguard Tomislocai looked at the unfamiliar number on his phone and pressed the answer button with curiosity. “Hello, may I ask who this is?”
“Where is the lady? Where are you now?” Rafas was frantic, just wanting to know if Yan Wushuang was safe.
“Rest assured, sir, the lady is safe. However, she said she doesn’t want to return just yet, so she asked the driver to take a tour around Prince Square before heading back!” As he spoke, Tomislocai handed the phone back to Yan Wushuang in the back seat.
Hearing Tomislocai refer to him as "sir," Yan Wushuang realized it was Rafas calling. But her mood was poor; she didn’t want to talk to anyone, including him.
Turning her head away again and closing her eyes, she softly said, “I don’t want to take any calls right now!”
Her words made Rafas even more anxious on the other end of the line. What had happened? She had seemed perfectly fine when he left in the morning. During lunch at An Xin Ya, she had been smiling and showed no signs of being upset.
“Listen, tell the driver to head back to the castle immediately. We can’t waste another minute out here. Do you understand?” Rafas tried to suppress his emotions, but every time it came to Yan Wushuang, he lost control.
“Yes, understood!” After hanging up, Tomislocai immediately leaned over to whisper in the driver’s ear to turn back to the castle; it was a command from their master.
Rafas grabbed his coat and asked Mike for the car keys; he needed to rush back immediately...
Accelerating to 180 km/h, it felt like the car was about to take off. In less than ten minutes, he arrived back at the castle waiting for her return. He cursed himself for driving too fast earlier and now found himself waiting a long time without seeing any sign of them.
Yan Wushuang looked out at the familiar route and knew they were heading back to the castle. Just a moment ago, Rafas had called, undoubtedly threatening these people to return to the castle immediately; if they were late, it would cost them their lives!
In just a few minutes, the vehicle drove onto the asphalt road leading back to the castle. The towering black gate came into view, and the servant on guard recognized the lady's car returning and hurried off to inform the master.
Rafas was anxiously waiting in the living room when he received the report that the lady had returned. He immediately rushed outside and saw her stepping out of the car with a worried expression.
“Shuang'er…” Rafas ran up to her and tightly embraced her.
“Why did you come back so suddenly? Don't you have to take care of things at the company?” Leaning against him, she deliberately changed the subject.
“Why do you keep turning off your phone when I call? Why won't you answer me? Tell me, what’s going on?” Rafas had been worried sick about her return; something must have happened.
Yan Wushuang pushed against his tall frame; they were still standing outside with so many servants watching. Was this really appropriate?
Seeing her gloomy face, Rafas leaned down and gently kissed her forehead before carrying her back to the bedroom.
“Wait, Lefas, I don’t want to go back to the bedroom. It feels too stuffy in there; I can hardly breathe. I want to go to the rooftop for some fresh air, is that okay?” She gazed at him earnestly, making a sincere request.
Rafas would never say “no” to her. Holding her fragile form, he bypassed the bedroom and headed straight for the rooftop, opening up the canopy so she could enjoy the autumn breeze brushing against her face.
“Thank you for your understanding, Lefas!” Yan Wushuang smiled lightly at him.
“Sweetheart, I don’t want you to say thank you. I just hope you can tell me why—why won’t you answer my calls? Why have you suddenly become so unhappy? That’s what I want to know most!” He had rushed back precisely because of this; if he didn’t understand why she was upset, he couldn’t grasp her feelings.
Yan Wushuang looked into his deep, dark eyes and lowered her head shyly. If she told him she had spoken with General Yamamoto earlier that afternoon, what would he think?
“Shuang'er… my dear, why won’t you tell me? Is it related to Yamamoto Ryuichi?” Rafas noticed her evasive gaze; whenever she felt guilty about protecting him or lying to him, she would display such an expression.
He hit the nail on the head, and Yan Wushuang couldn't hide it from him any longer, returning to his embrace. She slowly recounted the events of the afternoon: "I called the general this afternoon, and he asked me about the jade pendant."
"What...? Why did you call him? And how do you even have his phone number? Who gave it to you?" Rafas was indeed not mistaken.
Mentioning Yamamoto Ryuichi in front of Rafas was like bringing up Rafas in front of Yamamoto Ryuichi; it stirred intense emotions. Holding the woman tightly in his arms, no matter what tricks he played, Wushuang was already his wife. In this lifetime, he would never let Wushuang be taken away from him... no way!
Yan Wushuang wanted to calm his agitation, but she knew that whenever the general was mentioned, he became restless. She could only hold him tightly and wait for him to settle down before speaking again.
Rafas held Yan Wushuang close and waited for a moment without hearing her speak. Only then did he realize his own excitement. He loosened his grip, cupped her face gently, and apologized: "Baby, I'm sorry. I got too worked up just now, but it's only because I care about you so much!"
Yan Wushuang removed his hand from her cheek and looked up at him with watery eyes, bright and clear: "Lefas, don't think too much. There’s no possibility between me and the general anymore. The reason I hid my call to him from you is that Misa informed me that after the general saw the jade pendant we sent back, he became very upset and agitated. He even thought about coming to Las Vegas to ask me why I returned the pendant. But if he comes to Las Vegas, Misa is worried that you might secretly harm him, so she stopped him by all means possible and suggested that I call him to explain things clearly again."
Rafas finally breathed a sigh of relief; so it was just that: "But why didn't you answer my calls?"
His question made Yan Wushuang feel helpless...
"Lefas, can't you let me be alone when I'm feeling down?" She sighed as she looked at him; sometimes he really acted just like those willful children.
Seeing her aggrieved expression, Rafas finally smiled. It seemed that the relationship between Yamamoto Ryuichi and Wushuang had truly reached its end; from now on, Wushuang would only belong to him...
"What are you laughing at? Am I really that funny to you? Or are you mocking me?" Yan Wushuang playfully punched his chest a few times, watching him laugh and daring him to continue teasing her.
