Gao Yuan remained silent, the neon lights outside the car window illuminating the shimmering eyes of the other in the darkness....
After a long while, she suddenly spoke.
"Why do you want to help me?"
Because your life is like a legend?
Meng Lang knew if he answered that way, it would be the ultimate display of tone-deaf machismo, signaling his impending demise.
Others may claim machismo as fatal, but for him, it was literally "deadly."
But to say he had no desires or wants...
Would anyone believe that?
Oh! You put in so much effort, gathering intelligence, providing advance warnings, leveraging connections for rescue. Do you expect me to believe it's all because you couldn't stand injustice?
There are many women on the streets in worse situations than Gao Yuan, why don't you help them?
Do I have to declare my feelings again?
The case of Lin Haitang proved that while this method might work on ordinary women, the smarter they are, the more counterproductive it becomes.
