Chapter 2670 - 2644: Showdown

It’s habitual to treat everything as a battle, not just Gao Yang’s habit but basically instinct.

This habit of using "ba" could potentially lead to misunderstandings. If Joseph really thought he had to find that woman, and he immediately found her, with everything lining up perfectly, if he shot at the wrong time or a sneak attack from behind ended up killing someone, the picture would be too beautiful for Gao Yang to imagine.

Of course, such things are unlikely to happen. Joseph isn’t the reckless type, but Gao Yang quickly said, "Oh no, just observe! Just observe!"

Joseph whispered, "Got it, just observe, find the right moment to act, right?"

"Wrong! I expressed it incorrectly, issuing you another instruction. No, let me explain, my brother is interested in a certain woman, got it?"

After a moment of silence, Joseph whispered, "Understood, Boss, I have a small suggestion. You know I just came from the battlefield, and my task is to protect your safety. Perhaps I seem idle all day, but you must understand my nerves are constantly in a state of extreme tension. So please, when you give me orders in the future, can you be more clear? You scared me to death just now, thought we were going to eliminate someone here. When you talked about the battle plan, I was even thinking about how to escape..."

Gao Yang indeed saw Joseph idle every day, but he realized he might not really understand the mindset of a professional bodyguard.

For bodyguards, every moment is about being prepared for unexpected situations, which is stressful. Of course, some bodyguards don’t keep themselves in a constant state of alert, and precisely because of this, they can’t reach Joseph’s level.

"Alright, in the future I’ll give you orders without any ambiguity. Now relax, find that woman, it’s about my brother’s lifelong happiness, so Joseph, find that woman, and by the way, ask whose bodyguard she is. It’s up to you."

"Understood, I’ll do my best."

After hanging up the phone, Gao Yang breathed a sigh of relief and quietly said to Bob, "Joseph is looking, once he finds her, he’ll inquire a bit. After he finds out, what do you plan to do?"

Bob said somewhat confusedly, "I don’t know, what should I do?"

Gao Yang looked as if hating iron for not becoming steel, "I say, buddy, don’t you know you’re losing face for wealthy second generations? You ask me about chasing girls? You ask me?"

"Yeah, you’re successful! Look at Yelena, and her... that one, who knows what to do?"

Bob spoke thoughtlessly, but under Gao Yang’s piercing gaze, he finally realized the problem, and although difficult, he managed to steer the topic back in the right direction.

Coughing twice, Bob swallowed and said in a low voice, "What should I do?"

Yelena looked at Gao Yang with a displeased expression, Gao Yang looked at Yelena and quietly asked, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Yelena suddenly extended her fist, gesturing in front of Gao Yang and quietly said, "Daring enough to look for another woman behind my back!"

Gao Yang was shocked and hurriedly said, "No! Truly not! Absolutely not! How could you think that way, I, I..."

Yelena suddenly smiled, tugged at Gao Yang’s collar lightly, and quietly said, "Alright, look at how scared you are, I was just joking."

"Just joking?"

"Yeah, I was thinking, you’re such an outstanding man, how many women could resist your charm? Surely you’d attract woman after woman throwing themselves at you, and given your dangerous job, with high pressure, it’s likely you’d inadvertently end up in another woman’s bed sometimes."

Gao Yang frowned and said firmly, "I haven’t, what are you thinking? I absolutely haven’t! How can you look at me this way?"

Yelena held Gao Yang’s arm, gently swaying it and said, "I know you haven’t. My father said that when you’re out, you’re exceedingly pure, virtually a moral exemplar. Frey and Rabbit often look for women; only you avoid those kind of women. I’m proud of you and myself. I know how much you love me."

Gao Yang let out a light breath, thinking that’s the downside of hanging out with the father-in-law. But then, he took a sharp breath, because Yelena said everyone else goes looking for women, only he hasn’t, which suggests a big problem.

"Everyone except me? That, that..."

Gao Yang couldn’t continue, and Yelena shrugged, saying, "Yeah, my father even goes looking for those women, you definitely understand, you know, but you pretend."

Gao Yang said, tremblingly, "Swear to God, I really didn’t know, your father didn’t... "

"My dad admitted it."

"What? I didn’t know!"

Yelena sighed lightly, "He and my mom have been separated for so many years, risking their lives daily, could die any time, how could he not look for other women? Under my mom’s questioning, my dad already admitted it; even when he was with you, he’d occasionally sneak off to find other women, fearing you’d find out and it’d be awkward."

Gao Yang felt even more awkward now, and tremblingly said, "I really didn’t know."

Yelena sighed lightly, "My mom was very angry because she’s virtuous, but she later forgave dad and told me I had to understand because choosing men like you means facing these issues. My mom said, although she was angry and sad, she truly feared my dad would become psychologically twisted, never being able to go home, given what you face, we can’t even imagine."

Gao Yang’s mind was a bit confused, Bob whispered beside him, "So, is this discussion about my problem, Gao..."

"Shut up!"

Yelena said domineeringly, then turned to Gao Yang, "Today isn’t the right occasion, but since we’re talking about it, I want to let you know that under certain circumstances, it’s okay for you to look for women outside. I mind it, but I truly understand and can accept it because I don’t want you to leave me."

Gao Yang said foolishly, "What kind of logic is this?"

"You’re so excellent, I can’t stop other women from throwing themselves at you. Like Catherine, like Adele, their hearts are always on you, and you’re often away for so long, I’m not by your side. I’m really worried you might turn into a pervert, I didn’t understand before but now I get it."

Gao Yang said urgently, "Listen to me, I absolutely haven’t done anything..."

Gao Yang couldn’t continue, thinking about Karima, he felt guilty. But coincidentally, Yelena reached out and covered his mouth, whispering, "You have to love me, always love me, but if you occasionally seek out other women outside, I can accept it. Everything you face and experience needs an outlet, also, look here, if I think I can tie you to my side and keep you from other women, then I’d truly be an idiot, my dear. If you can manage these things, I feel very happy."

Gao Yang’s mind was a bit confused, he looked at the banquet hall full of socialites and couldn’t utter a word.

Yelena said softly, "Though it’s helpless, top-quality resources will always be snapped up."

Gao Yang covered his chest, gazing at Yelena solemnly, "Don’t you trust me?"

Yelena smiled, "My mom said I shouldn’t fall in love with you because loving an extraordinary man means you can’t have him all to yourself."

Gao Yang replied without hesitation, "Your mom’s talking nonsense."

Yelena whispered, "I’m just trying to tell you, if you find another woman outside, if you fall in love with another woman, I will leave you."

Gao Yang was a bit angry, he knew he had made mistakes before, but heaven and earth could see, the sun and moon could testify, he was loyal to Yelena, refusing all temptation, trying his utmost.

Yelena gently said, "I’m sorry, I know saying these things makes you angry, but Gao, if one day you find yourself unable to refuse and end up in another woman’s bed, then what am I supposed to do? Leave you?"

Gao Yang remembered Karima again, finding himself at a loss for words.

Yelena smiled, whispered, "I love you, if you still love me then I won’t leave you, I’ll die before leaving. But if you fall in love with another woman and don’t love me anymore, even if I still love you, I won’t stay by your side. But if you love me, and love another woman too, what am I supposed to do?"

Gao Yang whispered, "I won’t, really."

Yelena smiled and shook her head, "But I have no confidence, my dear. I don’t know about others, I know Catherine, Adele, and Karima, they’re all remarkable, and they all love you deeply. Tell me, should I leave after they defeat me, or should I communicate with you in advance to strengthen our relationship?"

Gao Yang stammered, "You’re bringing this up again, we agreed not to talk about these things."

Yelena shrugged, "Avoiding isn’t a solution, my dear, I really don’t want to share you with others. But my mom is right, I should have a sense of crisis. So, I want to agree on some things with you, you can’t love others more than me, you can’t bring other women home, no woman should interfere with our lives. Ugh, damn it, Catherine and Adele are exceptions because they’re my friends, they can visit our home. If one day you find you love someone else more, tell me and I will leave."

Gao Yang shouted, "Stop, stop! The more you say, the more outrageous it becomes!"

Yelena put her arms around Gao Yang’s neck, laughing, "Russian women, dare to love, dare to hate. From the first time I saw you, I swore silently you must be mine! I must have you! To keep you with me for life, I will use any means. Being more lenient with you when our relationship is most stable will make you love me even more, and also feel guilty towards me. Listen, you can’t fall in love with another woman, but if you do, you can’t love her more than me. Also, don’t have children with them, don’t catch any diseases, when seeking women, aim high. When you’re with me, you can’t think of anyone else. Alright, these are my demands, my means, having a very capable girlfriend must feel pressured, right?"

Looking at the speechless Gao Yang, Yelena turned away, "I’ll leave the time to you two, this is man time, see you later darling."

Yelena left, Bob stammered again, "Yelena, she, she... Sorry, should I have left earlier? I didn’t mean to intrude on your privacy, but Yelena spoke so fast, oh, my brother, are all Russian women like this?"

Gao Yang replied irritably, "How would I know? Right now I feel like... like..."

"What? You feel proud?"

Gao Yang angrily said, "Proud? What’s there to be proud of? I’m very frustrated!"

Bob urgently said, "This is a good thing! Yelena even accepted Catherine, she made it clear! You and Catherine are so close..."

Gao Yang urgently said, "Hmph! What are you talking about? You know full well the complications between Yelena and Catherine. If I had... F**k! It’s not possible, am I that kind of person?!"

Bob whispered, "Then don’t worry about your problem, Yelena won’t be your problem, she made it clear. Now can you help me think about mine, alright?"

Gao Yang replied irritably, "Wait a minute, let me calm down for a bit. I need to think, damn, what kind of mess is this!"
