Seeing that, Zhan Zhiyin immediately understood what Leng Shaoming was going to do, even though he said nothing yet. And she was very touched.

Leng Shaoming said nothing the entire time in order to surprise her, and he never disappointed her.

Leng Shaoming walked towards Zhan Zhiyin with ninety-nine roses in both hands, and Zhan Zhiyin stood up subconsciously.

Standing in front of Zhan Zhiyin, Leng Shaoming looked at her with a pair of loving eyes. "Zhiyin, I'm not good at sweet nothings. I can only be honest. I love you. Although what you told me yesterday scared me a little. It can't change the fact that I love you. I accept it. After all, when you're in love, you must accept everything about the person you love. I have many shortcomings too, but you never disdain me. You even risked your own life to protect me when we were in danger. What else can I ask for from a girl? If I refuse to accept you just because you're not a human, then I'd be too selfish and wouldn't deserve your love. I want to be with you, not just because you saved my life, but because I really love you. And I hope that you can protect yourself first if there is any danger again in the future. I don't want you to be injured because of me. Otherwise I'd be sad and heart-broken. I would blame myself."

Although Leng Shaoming wasn't good at sweet nothings, his sincere words were much more touching. Zhan Zhiyin's eyes were full of tears.

"Zhiyin, will you be my girlfriend?" Leng Shaoming asked as he handed the bunch of flowers to Zhan Zhiyin.

Zhan Zhiyin didn't take it over right away, because she was afraid it was just a dream.

"D-Do you mean it?" Zhan Zhiyin choked. She did her best to fight back her tears.

"Of course I mean it. I'd never joke about love," said Leng Shaoming seriously.

"Y-Y-Yes!" Hearing Leng Shaoming's affirmative answer, Zhan Zhiyin didn't hesitate to take Leng Shaoming's flowers.

The moment Zhan Zhiyin took his flowers, Leng Shaoming beamed with happiness.

He couldn't wait to give her a hug, but was afraid that it might be a little rude.

They needed time to become intimate.

"Come here, put the flowers down. We should eat first." Leng Shaoming reached out his hand and helped Zhan Zhiyin put down the flowers on the table.

After they sat down, Leng Shaoming rang the service bell. Then a waiter came in and Leng Shaoming told him that they were ready to have the meal.

When Leng Shaoming booked the private room, he had already placed the order. He ordered the restaurant's famous couple combo.

"I placed the order before you came. Do you mind?" asked Leng Shaoming.

"Of course not," said Zhan Zhiyin. She didn't care about the food at all since she was dining with Leng Shaoming.

Before long, Leng Shaoming's order was placed on the table.

Right after they finished the meal, Leng Shaoming received his secretary's call and they had the information about the woman.

The woman's background was very simple. She was born in an ordinary family and there was no problem with that. She was also an ordinary worker working in an ordinary company, but she was the girlfriend of the son of a director who was caught and put in jail because of bribery last year.

She tried to hurt Leng Shaoming because it was the son's idea. Even the big truck driver was paid by the son to hit him and the truck driver was the woman's relative.

Therefore, Leng Shaoming believed the mastermind behind the scheme against him must be the director's son.

After all, the director fell into trouble because of Leng Shaoming's report.

Leng Yuanqian's people received that result at almost the same time, so when Leng Shaoming called his father after hanging up his call with his secretary, Leng Yuanqian shared the result with him.

However, that was just what they found out after the investigation. They didn't have solid evidence to prove that they were right, so they needed to do a further investigation.

When Leng Shaoming had the call with his secretary and Leng Yuanqian, he didn't avoid Zhan Zhiyin, so she heard their conversations.

"Then what to do next? Do we need to catch the truck driver and the woman for interrogation?" asked Zhan Zhiyin. She felt they might be able to get a result quickly by doing that.

"They will definitely deny it, unless we can find evidence to prove that they're scheming together. Without solid proof, we can't do anything to them," said Leng Shaoming.

"It's hard to collect the evidence. After all, without clear recording or video of them scheming together, we can't prove they're guilty, but I do have an idea," said Zhan Zhiyin.

"What is it?" asked Leng Shaoming.

"We can directly threaten the director's son and force him to admit the crime," said Zhan Zhiyin.

"That's a good idea, but I'm afraid we can't get what we want through violence. What if we alert them instead?" said Leng Shaoming. He had the same idea, but he didn't think it was realistic.

"Right, but we can try it. Even if we can't get any evidence, as long as we can prove they did it, we can take revenge secretly. We don't need to wait till they're punished by the law. Anyway, the truck driver has agreed to pay the compensation, so it won't cause us any loss," said Zhan Zhiyin. Compared with a punishment according to the law, she preferred to take revenge on her own.

However, they had to be careful not to be dragged into trouble.

Hearing Zhan Zhiyin's words, Leng Shaoming felt it wasn't a bad idea. If they couldn't find evidence, they wouldn't be able to put the mastermind in jail. Anyway, the truck driver agreed to pay the compensation, so they wouldn't lose anything. As long as they were sure the director's son was the mastermind, it would be understandable if they took revenge secretly.

"But will it be exposed?" Leng Shaoming was afraid that their actions might be exposed, so if they decided to do that, they had to be very careful not to be exposed.

"No, but if you want to interrogate them, you can't do it in person. Just leave it to me. I can disguise myself for someone else. No one will know who I am," said Zhan Zhiyin.

"No way, I can't let you do that alone! It's dangerous." Leng Shaoming stopped her at once. He didn't think it was embarrassing to have a woman help him deal with it. He just didn't want Zhan Zhiyin to take the risk.
