Chapter 31 Unequal Treaties

Taking a record at the police station went smoothly. After half an hour, Li Ruoxi and Wang Ke had already cooperated with the police and left a record. Zhang Rui had been by their side the whole time. As Li Ruoxi and Wang Ke stood up from their seats, he hastily smiled, "Miss Li. Mr. Wang. It's already midnight. If you two don't mind, I shall arrange someone to drive you back."

Wang Ke fully agreed with this idea, but Li Ruoxi turned to glance at him. A glimpse of complex emotions appeared in her bright eyes, and she shook her head, "No, thank you. The air is very fresh tonight. We'll just take a walk and call a taxi back. We won't bother you anymore."

Zhang Rui felt slightly regretful. But since she had already said no, he could not act too proactive. After all, even if he wanted to befriend someone with high social status, he must not lower his own status and fawn over them, right?

Wang Ke followed Li Ruoxi out of the police station's door and frowned in confusion, "Why didn't you let Director Zhang send a car to drive us back? I'm in a hurry to memorize stuff!"

The highway with endless traffic was illuminated by bright neon lights. Li Ruoxi did not say a word but only walked ahead with a cold face. Wang Ke followed behind, feeling very puzzled. He was left without any choice but to follow her as he could not leave this nominal boss behind and take a taxi back home himself. From time to time, Wang Ke saw taxi cars with "empty" signs drove by and wanted to notify Li Ruoxi, but he ended up saying nothing.

Was she still angry at him for seeing her shower?

Wang Ke withdrew his confused eyes and raised the printed paper in front of his eyes. If this woman wanted to act crazy, let her be crazy herself then. He had these d*mn words to memorize!

Xiang Lake was beautiful at night, especially under the street lights. Even though it was nearly midnight, there was still an endless stream of people passing by. In the soft touch of chilly breezes, the two of them walked along the sidewalk of the highway for about five minutes.

Li Ruoxi suddenly stopped walking forward. She glanced at Wang Ke at the back and walked through the crosswalk to the other side of the road at an intersection. On the other side, there was Xiang Lake's shimmering surface. Under the shining starlight, the lake seemed to be covered with a layer of silver. The lakeshore was planted with green trees, whose delicate and soft branches were swinging in the wind.

Li Ruoxi, who was so beautiful that she seemed out of this world, took steady steps toward the edge of Xiang Lake. She looked toward the lake's scenery and turned her back on Wang Ke. After half a minute, she turned back and said with her cold but charming face, "Now let's settle the score between us, shall we?"

Settle the score?

Was this like settling the score after the autumn harvest, as the saying said? But it was not past autumn yet!

Wang Ke thought speechlessly.

"Boss, I am but a rough man, so just say it out loud. About what happened in the bathroom, I thought we had already made it clear, hadn't we? What is there to settle?" Wang Ke asked calmly.

A rough man?

Li Ruoxi's eyes went wide. This guy was a rough man? He looked young, but he definitely had an old and treacherous mind, hadn't he? In the villa, when he was explaining himself to Zhang Rui, he had swiftly dismissed the fact that he had seriously injured five criminals. He only used a couple of sentences to make their crimes worse. How could someone with such a sophisticated mind be rough?

Also, what kind of rough man had such an amazing talent at memorizing?

He was able to remember ten thousand nonsensical words in two and a half days, only by rote!

"Wang Ke, don't act so confused. Before the five thieves went into the villa, your hands..." She could not say a word. Even though her heart was filled with anger, she could not say anything about the embarrassing event that had happened.

Wang Ke looked at Li Ruoxi blankly and began to recall what had happened before the five thieves sneaked into the villa.

Li Ruoxi shocked him with an electric baton when he was taking over the phone and distracted. He sneaked to her side and grabbed her pair of soft and big... breasts...

Wang Ke's eyes burst open in an instant and dullness even appeared on his face. His eyes moved difficultly onto the magnificent bosom in front of Li Ruoxi's chest. Then he lowered his head with difficulty and raised his hands.

What he was grabbing earlier, was her...

He swallowed hard. Wang Ke was so shocked that he started to panic inexplicably, and he couldn't help but think of everything that had happened before. He thought of the soft, big, and tender bosom that he was holding.

"Ahem..."

As he was out of his mind for a moment, Wang Ke choked on his own saliva. After he coughed several times, his face went from being blank to being embarrassed in a complex change of emotions.

Wang Ke quickly searched his mind for a solution. He knew that no matter how he explained himself, he had offended Li Ruoxi after all. However, he still felt difficult to lower his head and apologize for the situation was caused by Li Ruoxi herself. Had she not attacked him with an electric baton and caused him to hastily defend himself, or even had Li Ruoxi not brought it up, he would not have realized what had happened.

He squirmed his lips and smiled bitterly, "Boss, as the saying goes, every man makes mistakes. Plus, my mistake was an accident. Think carefully. If I am really in the wrong here, you are also responsible for making it happen, right? If you had not attacked me with an electric baton, I wouldn't have... Forget it. This was a disadvantage for a girl anyways. I admit my mistake. But if you want me to be responsible, I cannot bear the responsibility. But if there is any other way that I can fix my mistake, you name it. As long as I, Wang Ke, can manage, I will not refuse."

A true man sometimes had to be clever. To be brave enough to admit his mistake also showed the true nature and true temperament of men.

Not to mention that there was also a saying that he had seen and heard more than a hundred times, both in books and from others. The saying went, "Never reason with women for women were always unreasonable. Regardless of whether you had a reason or not, it was your fault after all."

Therefore, compared to trying to justify himself in a pretentious quarrel, he'd rather act clever and apologize. After all, she couldn't kill him, could she?

Wang Ke's understatement and his sudden apology made Li Ruoxi's extremely beautiful face dumbfounded. Then she gave Wang Ke's leg a small kick, slightly annoyed.

This ba*t*rd. Ever since leaving the police station, she had been contemplating how to scheme Wang Ke. She even decided that if Wang Ke tried to explain himself, she would raise the point of the virginity of women to counter. After he went speechless, she would bring forth a series of unequal treaties. In this way, this strong bodyguard and beater would be neatly under her control.

But he apologized?

What should she do then? If she brought up any of her treaties, she would be fishing in a troubled pond. Wouldn't that count as a rogue move to take advantage of him?

The feeling of dissatisfaction hit her heart. Then a slice of a smile appeared on her face. She glanced at Wang Ke and laughed wickedly in her heart. Even if she was taking advantage of him, so what? What was there to be reserved about with such a p*****t? He had taken advantage of her all, so why couldn't she bring up excessive demands? She really hoped that he would attempt to reason with her? No. She was a woman after all, and what she said was the reason. How dare he try and reason with her? Even by endlessly pestering, she had to get him agree with the unequal treaties that she had thought of.

Also, since he had admitted his mistakes, it wouldn't count as bullying him if she used the unequal treaties to control him, right? She was taken advantage of, and he promised to compensate. Then let her use the unequal treaties to make him compensate!

As everything was going according to her plan, Li Ruoxi looked at Wang Ke, "Even though you are usually a bit reckless, you are generally pretty good, especially at recognizing your own mistakes. It's not easy to apologize twice on a single night. Since you have sincerely apologized, I will not make it hard for you. Still, since our relationship is between the employer and the employee, I plan to add something on top of our previous treaties to prevent things like today from happening again. You are not against this, are you?"

Wang Ke nodded immediately and said, "As long as you don't make me kill or r**e anyone or commit any crimes, I don't have any problems. What I am thinking now is if you can let me go back soon. I have things to memorize."

Li Ruoxi nodded, "Okay. I will hold onto my words. You don't have to do any killing or commit any crimes. Even if you dare to do it, I don't! Since you have agreed, I will give you a new contract with added contents to sign after I go back. As for what has happened, I will nobly forgive you and do not fuss over it anymore."

After saying this, Li Ruoxi turned back quietly after Wang Ke nodded speechlessly. She looked at Xiang Lake's scenery for about a minute before stretching and said, "I see that you have spent the past few days trying to memorize the nonsense like crazy. You must be very tired. You shouldn't be so stressed out all the time and should relax occasionally. Look at the sight in front of you. It's beautiful."

Following Li Ruoxi's words, Wang Ke raised his head to look at Xiang Lake's scenery in front of him.

He had followed Li Ruoxi here, but memorizing the content had been occupying his mind. He did not have the heart to appreciate the scenery in front of his eyes and only began to seriously take a look now.

It was beautiful!

The scenery was splendid!

The lake was shimmering as the wind breezed by, and the surging starlight reflected the lights on the shore. Plus the drooping green branches in the background, the whole scene was extremely beautiful. Not so far away. there was a young couple leaning against a lake-side tree, snuggling and hugging each other, talking about love. They added a prettier demeanor to this beautiful picture.

After a long while, his gaze slowly turned toward the night sky. The stars were scattered across the veil of the night, and occasionally there was a meteor passing by among the shimmering stars. The dazzling light trail was very visually impactful.

The universe was vast and infinite, and there were countless stars in the sky. How many fantastic secrets was this mysterious and deep starry sky hiding?

Wang Ke's mind slowly expanded in this silent world among the beautiful scene in front of him. His body stood like a statue firmly on the ground, and his bright eyes began to emit a blurry light.

The vast starry sky had opened his mind completely. It was as if he had escaped secular bonds and went away from any earthly desire. In this peaceful realm, his soul was refined, and streams of spiritual energy from heaven and earth came swirling toward Wang Ke from all directions at a speed invisible to the n***d eye. The spirit energy inside him began circulating in the operation route of Dragon's Momentum without Wang Ke realizing. The energy from heaven and earth that he absorbed was refined too without him knowing, and became a part of his cultivation.
