After hearing this, Shi Yi pursed his lips slightly, neither saying a word nor turning around.

But he didn't shake off Tuya's hand, letting her tug at the hem of his clothes.

This means... they're willing to give her a chance?

Should we listen to her continue?

Seeing this, Tuya perked up and immediately explained, "I shouldn't have lied to you that night; I should have told you beforehand."

However, I really didn't mean to distrust you. I was just too impatient and wanted to resolve those matters as soon as possible and get rid of those people.

As you know, I had those experiences in the black market, even after I came back, you guys helped me.

But subconsciously, I still have a desire to solve it myself.

This is something ingrained in me, something I experienced over many years in the black market—a habit ingrained in me that prioritizes self-reliance and avoids causing trouble for others.

They helped me so much.

She thought that the only way to get back the documents her mother left behind was to get closer to Aotai herself.

She paused for a moment, then continued, "Of course, I also feel bad about troubling you with everything."

That night, although I went with a purpose, I didn't intend to get myself involved.

I bought the medicine in advance. As you said, it's impossible to guarantee that it will be completely safe.

But I'm also mentally prepared that if he really wants to do something, I will resist with all my might and prevent him from succeeding.

Shi Yi frowned upon hearing this, turned around to look at her, and said with barely concealed anger in his voice, "You still don't understand why I'm angry!"

Tuya met his icy gaze and felt a jolt in her heart, as if she had been struck hard by something.

She had to admit that she really didn't understand why He Yi reacted so strongly to this matter.

Shi Yi said coldly, "Originally, there was a safer solution to this problem."

If you want the documents, I can send someone infiltrate to retrieve them. You don't need to lift a finger; just provide the relevant information and clues.

Our personnel not only possess outstanding reconnaissance capabilities, enabling them to gather intelligence with ease in complex environments, but also have superb code-breaking skills.

They can even complete tasks without anyone noticing, leaving no trace.

Instead of someone like you, who goes all out and ignores all consequences.

It even carries uncertainties and potential risks.

Shi Yi was still angry, and his tone was a little agitated, "Moreover, have you ever thought that if you accidentally make a mistake, you might alert the enemy?"

Instead, you lose the initiative. How should you deal with this?

When Tuya heard this question, she paused for a moment, her mind quickly recalling the various scenes from that night.

She admitted that she hadn't really thought about this issue in depth before.

The situation that night was indeed dangerous; they were almost discovered.

It was because she didn't do it properly and didn't think things through.

"sorry."

She immediately apologized sincerely, "It was my lack of consideration! I'm sorry for making you worry!"

Her tone was full of self-blame and regret, but then she changed the subject and said, "But at least the result was good, and you arrived in time, didn't you?"

So please don't be angry anymore, okay?

I promise that next time, no matter what happens or what decision I need to make, I will consult with you immediately, okay?

I will never act on my own again, never risk my life alone! I swear!

As she spoke, she solemnly raised three fingers to show her sincerity and determination.

Seeing that she spoke sincerely, Shi Yi's expression seemed to soften slightly for a moment.

But upon closer inspection, one can still detect that subtle displeasure.

His eyes were fixed on her lips as he asked coldly, "When I went to his house before, I really didn't see you?"

Tuya nodded and answered firmly, "Of course not."

Shi Yi pressed on relentlessly, "What about downstairs just now? Did you kiss him?"

Tuya was taken aback, then immediately shook her head, "No, I didn't have time. Didn't you ruin it?"

Shi Yi's mouth was full of sourness, and his tone was tinged with dissatisfaction, "If I don't sabotage you in time, are you really planning to give up hiding?"

Tuya quickly explained, "No, I didn't realize what was happening. Who knew that piece of trash would suddenly come over?"

I had my head down and didn't see it.

By the time I finally realized something was wrong and tried to get out of the way, your car had already sped past.

You splashed water all over Aotai, making him look like a drowned rat.

And me... too, my skirt's all wet! Now I feel sticky and uncomfortable!

Shi Yi lowered his eyes slightly and gave her a deep look.

He then raised his hand and gently, yet with a bit of pressure, wiped her lips with his fingers.

He warned in a stern tone, "If you dare give him another chance, you'll see."

Upon hearing this, Tuya blinked involuntarily, a mischievous smile flashing across her eyes.

She had already sensed the sour smell emanating from this person.

At this moment, her tone was filled with jealousy, almost overflowing.

So, she deliberately raised an eyebrow, asking with a hint of provocation, "What would happen if we tried?"

"you dare?"

Shi Yi was irritable, glaring at her as if he was about to explode at any moment.

Tuya parted her lips slightly, her tone resolute and disdainful, and slowly said, "I dare, but you know, my disgust for him runs deep. How could I let him take advantage of me for nothing?"

Besides, I'd much rather be with you than him!

A captivating smile bloomed on her face, and then she gracefully tiptoed, gently pressing her soft lips against his.

This sudden action froze Shi Yi instantly.

He stared wide-eyed in disbelief, as if frozen in place.

Tuya stared at him, her eyes filled with a mixture of amusement and anticipation.

Then, Shi Yi's ears began to blush red inch by inch, and that red color spread like a flame, gradually covering the entire earlobe.

Tuya chuckled.

Suddenly, I realized that this innocent, adorable young man in front of me was far more interesting than any other man.

Moreover, his eyes were clear and pure, filled with nothing but himself.

Although she hasn't avenged her great grudge yet, it will happen soon.

So... why not give him a chance, and give yourself a chance too?

She can't let one jerk make her lose faith in love!

That’s so thankful!

After flirting with the person, Tuya prepared to back away and keep a distance.

But Shi Yi did not do as she wished.

He quickly reached out and hooked his arm around her waist, his grip firm yet irresistible.

What does this kiss mean?

He lowered his head slightly, his tone urgent and his gaze intense as he asked the question.
