Imprisoning the Black Moonlight

When Nuohan pushed open the bedroom door, Yao Gongyue was on the phone with You Lili.

"Okay, I know, Lily. Yeah, I'm not going back. Be careful, we'll talk about it tomorrow..."

The man closed the door but didn't go any further. He waited until she finished her call before speaking.

"I've already sent people over to handle it, and Yuri has made the arrangements as well."

The girl on the bed gave him a cold look. "I know, you can leave now!"

"Moon, if I didn't answer your call today and you're angry and have nowhere to vent, you can hit me, yell at me, anything is fine, just please don't talk to me like that, okay?"

"Nohan!" The girl looked up at him solemnly. "Have you ever thought about what if that person today wasn't Yulili, but me? What if I were in danger and asked you for help, but couldn't find you when I was most desperate and scared? Today, the first person I thought of was you, but I couldn't find you. And I never imagined that Yulili's danger was because of you..."

She got angrier and angrier as she spoke, and the anger she had managed to suppress surged up again. "Yes, I thought you were a pretty good boyfriend. You're loyal, brave, and reliable. But today, when I couldn't find you, when I saw you fooling around in that kind of place, being ambiguous with other women, I suddenly realized that you're not as good as I thought."

Nuohan felt as if a huge hole had been ripped out of his heart. He stood there stiffly, his eyes unfathomable. "Moon, Rebecca and I have nothing. I went there to wait for someone."

I didn't answer your call today, and you're angry. I have nothing to say, so I can only try my best to appease you. But, Moon, it's impossible for you to break up with me.

I am not loyal to any national government, no family needs my sacrifice, being a soldier is just a job, and being a businessman is not my label. I do not believe in God or any deities. In this life, all my loyalty, glory, and love are dedicated to you, my moon.

The angry girl on the bed felt a sudden tremor in her heart.

Undeniably, this man was the most outstanding she had met in all these years, almost fulfilling all her fantasies about a boyfriend. This was also why she was willing to be with him after knowing him for only a few days.

She had heard many sweet words and been confessed to by many people, but no one had ever been as passionate and affectionate as him.

Her heart was in turmoil...

It's a complete mess.

Her pale fingers gripped the bedsheet, she turned her face away, unsure of what to say.

Warmth touched her fingertips as the man tightly enveloped her small hand. He knelt before the bed, tilting his head back with a reverent look, as if gazing upon a god. "Moon, in this life, I have no choice but you. No matter the means, I will have no choice but you..."

The girl pouted, reluctantly saying, "I'm not so easily appeased. Let me think about it for a week. If I've made up my mind after a week, I'll call you. If I still don't want to see you, it just means I really can't accept you anymore, so please stop bothering me, okay?"

“No…” Nuohan shook his head, his resolute and handsome face filled with pain. “You can’t leave me, Moon, please.”

"Let me calm down first..." she said firmly, pulling her hand away and turning over to burrow under the covers.

The man stood by the bed for a long time until he heard her even breathing, then tucked the blanket around her and turned to leave.

The study was dark, but the neon lights outside were flashing, so the room wasn't completely dark. The refracted light sparsely fell on the man, illuminating only a blurry figure in the darkness—lonely, forlorn, out of place in this world, like a wandering evil spirit.

The phone rang in my pocket. I took the cigarette butt off my fingers and pressed the answer button.

"Ah Han, what are you doing? Sending Black Shark to capture Rebecca, a woman?" Basong thought his friend seemed to have gone mad.

After he left, Yao Gongyue barged into the private room and stumbled upon the news of Rebecca. He already knew most of the details, but he didn't expect that Nuohan would go so far as to sever the entire sales chain in Y country just to avenge his woman.

"If Black Shark can't even handle this simple matter, then he shouldn't be in my military camp."

"Are you serious?" Basong's voice rose two octaves.

"I'm very free?"

"Han, calm down. Black Shark kidnapped Rebecca. Her father called me, and I thought there was a misunderstanding, so I intercepted Black Shark. Now she's here with me, too scared to even leave the house, and she keeps crying. You've never been one to argue with women, so let it go this time, okay?"

Basong tried to persuade him gently. He knew Nuohan's temperament; he was a man of few words, burdened with worries, but reasonable and reserved. He wouldn't usually hold a grudge against a woman unless she really offended him.

Rebecca used to pester him and do many crazy things, but he would always just glance at her coldly, not even say a word, and turn away. He had never done anything like today, where he directly ordered his top mercenaries to take action.

"Moon wants to break up with me because of her, Song. How dare you compare yourself to my Moon? Even if my father came today, I would never take back what I said, let alone if you pleaded for me."

"I can coax her back, she's only lost a tongue, I can't coax her back..." He stopped mid-sentence, remaining silent for a long time before finally speaking, his voice hoarse beyond recognition.

"I can't coax her, and I don't know what I'll do. Song, I'm going crazy, really, I've lost my moon again..."

Even through the phone screen, Basong could feel his pain.

He is a very reserved person, almost devoid of emotion, but today, his emotions were on the verge of collapse, revealing to everyone what it means to be "even a hero cannot resist the charms of a beautiful woman."

"If I'd known your darling was coming, I would have waited until I was dying to see her. I can't believe there's a woman in this world who can drive you to such madness," my good friend sighed.

"How about this, I'll have Rebecca apologize to your little darling's friend and offer compensation. If that waitress named Yulili is willing to forgive her, then you can just give her a hand, okay?"

“Song, in my eyes, even human lives have a price tag. But when it comes to the moon, there’s no room for negotiation! Tell Black Shark that if he doesn’t hear the result I want by tomorrow morning, he doesn’t need to come see me again!”

After saying that, Nuohan hung up the phone.

******

Yu Lili was arranged by Nuohan's people to stay in the most upscale themed hotel near the school. She was so excited that she didn't sleep until late at night, taking all sorts of photos.

After finally getting over that initial burst of energy, I lay down on the bed, ready to sleep, when suddenly there was a rapid knocking on the door.

"Who is it?" she asked cautiously as she peered into the doorway.

"Lily, it's me, Shirley. Open the door quickly, I have some amazing news for you."

Upon hearing that it was an acquaintance, Yulili lowered her guard and opened the door.

To everyone's surprise, a large group of bodyguards in black suits entered from outside. Finally, the generous guest who had given him a tip and Rebecca walked in.

"Miss Lily, is this Basong, a good brother of Nohan? Please forgive my intrusion so late at night, but there is a reason for it!"

Basong smiled gently and nodded politely. Rebecca, standing behind him, still maintained a haughty expression, but her attitude was noticeably less arrogant.
