Reincarnated: The Mob Boss Turned Detective[BL]

"I've watched you grow from a naive college student into a mature man over the three years you've been with me. I've accompanied you as you've grown, and you've accompanied me through many happy days. I don't know when it started, but I found that I wanted to keep you firmly within my sight. Over the years, you're the first person who's made me want to settle down. I don't trust anyone else to sleep by my side, but if it's you, I think... I should be able to, no, I mean, I'd be willing to spend a lifetime with you. This is the first time I've confessed my feelings to anyone in my life, so think about it. The roses in the car, if you like them, keep them, if not... I'll take them back. That's it." The recording device in the trunk abruptly stopped. It was a clever device that would automatically start playing as soon as the trunk was fully opened. Having fulfilled its purpose, it lay quietly amidst a car full of red roses, as if waiting with the roses for their owner to retrieve them.

Lin Moran’s Injured

Some folks shrink under pressure, some rise to the challenge, and some use it as a springboard to bounce back.

The more Ding Shuqing grilled him, the more Wang Zhiyuan felt the urge to throw Lin Moran under the bus.

"Yep," he said, placing a cigarette between his lips and lighting it. He took a deep drag. "I had some selfish thoughts before."

"Selfish thoughts?" Ding Shuqing's temper flared up along with the cigarette. "Do you realize how short a time Monk has been here? You dare to let him go undercover right under Qian Haiyang's nose? Can you handle the fallout if something goes wrong?"

What was there to fear? Hadn't he been just fine undercover under Qian Haiyang's nose before? In fact, he had played a part in bringing Qian Haiyang down.

Wang Zhiyuan sneered inwardly, but his face showed regret. "I thought, since he's my apprentice, I could somewhat..."

"Could what?" Ding Shuqing asked coldly.

Wang Zhiyuan wisely shut his mouth, lowering his head in a semblance of remorse.
