Chapter 41

After using a bit of sleazy tactics to shake off the troublesome police officer Cai Yan, Yang Chen smoothly arrived at the parking spot. He started the car, glanced at the dashboard clock, and saw it was almost 1 AM. Worried that there wouldn't be enough time to properly cozy up with Rose, Yang Chen slammed on the gas pedal, and the car shot towards the city center like a rocket!

At the same time, the three police cars led by Cai Yan and the detectives felt something was amiss...

A detective, after receiving a call, quickly ran to Cai Yan, who was deep in thought, and reported, "Chief, something big has happened!"

Cai Yan, already frustrated by the absence of the criminal she was waiting for, turned around irritably, "What is it?"

The detective quickly said, "We just received a report from an informant. A mysterious person broke into the Chen residence alone tonight, killed Chen Dehai and many of his important subordinates. The Chen residence now has a new owner, one of Chen Dehai's former deputies, Zhang Hu. The mysterious person has disappeared."

Cai Yan's thick eyebrows furrowed, and she was surprised, "No wonder Chen Dehai didn't come out to participate in tonight's drug deal; he's dead..."

A few of the other detectives said with a hint of joy, "Chief, this is good news. Chen Dehai deserved his comeuppance."

"What do you know?" Cai Yan scolded them, frustrated by their lack of insight. "Don't you think about it? Who could single-handedly break into the Chen residence, kill Chen Dehai, and escape alone? What kind of person could do that? And you're not worried at all that such a person is in Zhonghai!?"

The detectives looked at each other, realizing that such a person was indeed more terrifying than Chen Dehai!

Cai Yan thought for a moment and said, "Contact the informant as soon as possible and try to get to the bottom of what happened. Ideally, find out who that mysterious person is, or at least get a description. Also, don't relax the surveillance of this area just because Chen Dehai is dead. With Zhang Hu taking over, he will likely purge some of the old loyalists. Ensure that no civilians are harmed!"

"Yes, Chief!"

After issuing a series of orders, Cai Yan glanced in the direction Yang Chen had left, her cold and beautiful face showing a hint of stubbornness. She muttered to herself, "Yang Chen, I will definitely uncover your true identity..."

When Yang Chen arrived at the Rose Bar, it was still bustling with noise and revelry, as was typical for an all-night drinking spot on the bar street.

Yang Chen greeted the grinning Xiao Zhao and hurriedly ran into the back corridor of the bar. The bodyguards along the way respectfully greeted him, though Yang Chen didn't say anything, they already knew that the man in front of them had saved their president's life.

After pushing open the beautiful door to Rose's room, Yang Chen didn't see her inside. The spacious and comfortable room was dimly lit by a single lamp.

Turning his head, he noticed that the delicate figure was sitting by the pool outside.

Rose's pool was lined with large pebbles. She was wearing a white, sheer nightgown, sitting on the pebbles by the pool, her flawless, smooth, and delicate feet playing with the water that reflected the starlight.

In the quiet courtyard, several magnolias swayed in the wind, bringing a cool breeze and a natural fragrance.

The crescent moon, shyly peeking out from the clouds, cast a gentle light on Rose's beautiful face, which was both alluring and cold. She looked like the moon goddess Chang'e descending to earth, or a goddess from Greek mythology in a white dress.

Hearing the door open, Rose slowly turned her head, but didn't speak. She just smiled sweetly at Yang Chen.

The ancient saying "a single glance and a smile can captivate a hundred beauties, making the three palaces' beauties pale in comparison" was often used to describe a seductive concubine like Daji. Yang Chen didn't think Rose was like Daji, because at that moment, her smile was pure, like a wife who had been waiting for her husband to return safely, and was now smiling happily.

This woman always brought him warmth and comfort. Even now, Yang Chen realized that he truly couldn't live without her.

Taking off his shoes and pants, Yang Chen walked over to Rose and sat down next to her on the pebbles, stretching his feet into the cool water and letting out a long sigh, feeling completely relaxed.

Only then did Rose speak, with a playful smile, "If you don't come soon, I'll fall asleep."

"Even if you fall asleep, I'll wake you up. If you fall asleep while waiting for me, you'll get a spanking," Yang Chen reached out and gently pulled Rose's soft shoulder, letting her lean comfortably against his chest. He also rubbed her soft, pink chest, causing her to coo in delight.

"You're so domineering," Rose blinked, "If the president of the Red Thorn Society gets spanked by a man, how will I command so many brothers and sisters?"

"That depends on who is doing the spanking..." Yang Chen kissed Rose's fragrant hair, which smelled wonderful, and asked with a smile, "Did you change your perfume?"

"Who sprays perfume on their head?" Rose straightened up and gave Yang Chen a playful look, "It's the natural scent of my body mixed with the scent of my bath. Do you like it?"

Yang Chen smiled suggestively, "I do, but you're not a girl anymore."

Rose's face turned red, "Then what am I?"

"A young wife."

"A young wife who isn't married?" Rose blinked playfully.

Yang Chen was momentarily speechless, feeling guilty about his relationship with Rose. He awkwardly smiled and said, "This... Rose, can we change the topic?"

"Look at your face," Rose giggled, "I was just teasing you. Who made you wait so long? It's been almost four hours."

Yang Chen said with a frown, "Hey, Rose, I went from my house to Chen Dehai's, did the job, and came here. The route was simple, but it's not a game. I was already pretty fast."

"What was the result?" Rose asked casually, as if the massacre of a major gang leader's base was a minor matter.

Yang Chen didn't beat around the bush and briefly recounted the events, concluding, "In short, now Zhang Hu will clean up the mess left by Chen Dehai. You contact Zhang Hu and have him follow your instructions."

Rose nodded without surprise, "I didn't expect Zhang Hu to be so smart. He used to seem so foolish, always following Chen Dehai. I guess I misjudged him."

"He was foolish, otherwise he wouldn't have chosen Chen Dehai as his leader," Yang Chen said noncommittally.

Rose suddenly sighed to herself, "Even a fool isn't as foolish as me, willingly being someone's mistress, and even waiting until I'm about to fall asleep..."

Seeing the pitiful expression on the little vixen's face, Yang Chen felt a surge of desire in his lower abdomen. He pulled Rose's elastic body into his arms, kissed her delicate face, and said with a smile, "Rose, you really know how to set the mood. This expression of yours, how can I not go crazy?"

"How crazy, husband?" Rose breathed, her voice low and husky.

Yang Chen smiled slyly and suddenly twisted his body, causing both of them to fall into the pool!

They immediately embraced in the water, kissing passionately, with splashes of water and occasional murmurs.

"Rose, let's do it in the water..."

"Mm... No..."

"What? You want? Oh, good, you're so obedient..."

"I said... Mm..."

"I know you want it, one time is enough, hehe..."

"Mm... Mm... Mm!!!"
