"What I mean is, I won't tell anyone. If Zhe wants to pretend he knows nothing, I have no objection..."
After hearing this, Zhe didn't know what to say for a moment. What kind of train of thought made Zhu Yuan say such a thing?
Chapter 273: Immortals are as numerous as hemp (not in the traditional sense)
From Zhu Yuan's perspective, she thought that Zhe might already have a girl he liked, and might even have confirmed his partner.
His current behavior was tantamount to causing the other party to betray the girl, which Zhu Yuan could never forgive.
That's why she said that to Zhe. Even though it was unfair to herself, at least...
"I can't just leave Zhu Yuan alone."
"Eh?"
"Although it's because Zhu Yuan is so cute, I didn't refuse, so..."
"so?"
Although what Zhe said made Zhu Yuan feel very shy, she was still more curious about what he was going to say next.
"If Zhu Yuan doesn't mind, let me take the responsibility, okay?"
"Responsible? But, but..."
Zhu Yuan was excited at first when he heard this, but then he seemed to think of something and became disappointed again.
But before she could say anything else, she felt someone hugging her tightly, and this warm embrace was brought by Zhe.
That feeling made Zhu Yuan, who was still emotionally unstable at the time, want to be comforted, but the sense of justice in her heart eventually overcame this emotion.
"Feel sorry……"
Zhu Yuan is very kind and knows her bottom line. She will not allow herself to destroy other people's happiness, nor will she allow herself to be a mistress.
But before she could finish her words, Zhe put his index finger in front of her lips, stopping her from saying anything else.
"Zhu Yuan, don't put all the pressure on yourself. I like Zhu Yuan. She's serious and responsible, and she's also very cute!"
“Ugh…! Zhe…”
Zhu Yuan was a little overwhelmed by Zhe's sudden confession, but she didn't need to think about how to respond, she just needed to answer one question.
"Zhu Yuan, I like you. Do you like me?"
"I like……!!"
Zhu Yuan's answer was almost shouted. Her face was flushed at this moment. She had lost her previous heroic look and looked like a shy little girl.
Zhe held her and comforted her for a long time. After a long time, Zhu Yuan seemed to remember her work and suddenly woke up.
"Oh no! I almost forgot I have to report back to the bureau after finishing the work!"
Even after something like this happened, you're still thinking about work? You're truly worthy of being the responsible Sheriff Zhu Yuan.
"Can't I take a leave?"
"No, those... videotapes are important evidence and need to be turned in."
Zhu Yuan looked at the pile of videotapes below with a complicated expression, and the one that was playing before had now finished.
"Okay, then does Zhu Yuan feel uncomfortable anywhere?"
"No."
Zhu Yuan shook her head. She seemed more energetic now than before, and the wound that had been painful just now no longer hurt.
Seeing this, Zhe no longer thought of persuading Zhu Yuan to take leave. After all, that would only make things difficult for the latter.
So after Zhu Yuan finished washing herself and came out of the bathroom, Zhe had already helped her pack her clothes and the videotapes she needed to take away.
"Thank you, thank you, it's really helpful..."
Zhu Yuan didn't know what to say. After all, in just one afternoon, her relationship with Zhe had changed drastically.
Later, at Zhu Yuan's strong request, Zhe gave up the idea of sending her back to the Public Security Bureau.
On the way back to the Public Security Bureau, Zhu Yuan still couldn't calm down...
Then that night, Zhe received a call from Qingyi. After the call was connected, the first sentence from the other party was.
"Zhe, you are so awesome!"
"Hmm? Why do you say that, Qingyi?"
"Hmph, stop playing dumb with me. Ever since Zhu Yuan came back this afternoon, he's been acting weird. It might be fine for other people, but how could I, Senior, not notice it?"
This was a lie. In fact, the reason why Qingyi knew about Zhu Yuan's changes was mainly because the latter did not completely wash away the smell during the cleaning process.
That's why she could distinguish and make judgments after getting close, relying on Yuou Zhiqu's sense of smell and the smells recorded in the information database.
Although Zhe didn't know this, he did do something to Zhu Yuan, or to be more precise, the other party did something to him.
In short, he admitted it openly, and Qingyi pretended to be surprised when he heard it.
"You admitted it so easily, how shameless! Aren't you afraid that I'll get angry and jealous, cry and make a fuss, and then make trouble?"
Having said that, Qingyi's tone remained calm. Zhe couldn't help but laugh when he heard it, because he really couldn't imagine Qingyi like that.
"I don't think Qing Yi would do that."
"Hmm... I really lost to you. Okay, let's get back to the point. How are you going to treat Zhu Yuan? Let's make it clear in advance that although she seems easy to talk to.
But from my personal understanding, she probably wouldn't tolerate the existence of other girls, and if she chose to hide it, once it was discovered, the situation would only get worse."
Qingyi's tone was a little serious. Although he had joked before about letting Zhe capture Zhu Yuan as well, the situation was different when it came to this point.
"Well, I know that if I choose to hide it, the situation will only get worse, so I plan to confess to her later."
"what?"
Qingyi obviously didn't expect Zhe to be so straightforward, but she immediately organized her words again.
"Then I wish you good luck. I hope there won't be any negative news like a sheriff beating people in anger."
"Um, should I say thank you for your well wishes?"
"You are welcome."
"..."
After hanging up the phone, Zhe seemed a little distressed. Although he had decided to confess to Zhu Yuan, how to say it specifically was another problem.
"Brother, don't be so sad. Think about it, besides Zhu Yuan, there are many other girls who don't know about this, right? So don't worry."
"Well, thank you, Ling. I feel even more uneasy after hearing what you said."
Miss Tsukishiro Ryu from Anti-Aircraft Section 6, Miss Jane, a professional undercover agent from the Public Security Bureau, Caesar, leader of the Sons of Calydon and overlord of the Outer Rim, Lucy from the Montev family, and No. 11 from the Defense Forces...
If I have to mention it, there's also Nicole. They are the ones who currently don't know that Zhe has other girls.
The current situation seems to have evolved to the point where if it breaks out, it will be extremely terrifying. I hope there won't be any accidents like the last carnival, otherwise...
No, to be on the safe side, you should first think about how to explain it to them later! After all, not every problem can be solved perfectly.

Chapter 274 Meeting the Parents
On the second floor of the video store, in Zhe's room.
"What? You said your mom wanted to see me?!"
Zhe looked at Zhu Yuan in front of him, with a hint of surprise in his tone. It had been several days since he assisted the other party in carrying out the confidential mission.
"Yes, I don't know why, but after I got home that day, my mom looked at me very strangely. She even saw our chat history yesterday..."
Zhu Yuan covered her face with her hands as she spoke, even though she was already an adult.
But I would still feel a little nervous about situations like my parents finding out about my relationship affairs.
"So she asked you directly?"
"um, yes."
"Then how did Zhu Yuan respond?"
"I, I told you about you... and I also said that you are my boyfriend..."
Zhu Yuan's tone was slightly shy, and her eyes were a little evasive when she answered. Compared with her usual decisive appearance, the contrast was huge.
"Yeah, I see. Is that today? I'm free."
Zhe said this with a gentle smile, but Zhu Yuan was slightly stunned when he saw this.
"Zhe, did you agree so easily?"
"Of course, after all, Zhu Yuan has already said that I am your boyfriend."
Zhu Yuan and her mother have already said so, how could Nazhe possibly betray her trust?
Seeing him agree so decisively, Zhu Yuan couldn't help but feel a little moved.
Afterwards, Zhe accompanied Zhu Yuan back home. It was obvious that the latter's parents were very satisfied with Zhe and even planned to let him stay overnight.
Although Zhu Yuan blushed and shyly said that this would put Zhe in an awkward position, she seemed to be hoping that the latter would agree to stay.
Although Zhe finally refused the request to stay overnight, he undoubtedly won the favor of Zhu Yuan's parents. At this point, the progress can basically be said to be a foregone conclusion.
At night, when Zhu Yuan was sending Zhe to the station, he suddenly spoke.
"Zhe, thank you for today. Don't be offended. My parents are just like that."
Zhu Yuan recalled the various questions her parents asked Zhe at the dinner table. Although she knew that they were worried about her, when she put herself in Zhe's perspective, her impression seemed a little bad.
However, the latter obviously didn't care about it. Instead, after Zhu Yuan said this, he put his arm around her shoulders and said in a pretended angry tone.
"Zhu Yuan, you're saying such awkward things again. Think carefully. I've already got my parents' approval."
When Zhe spoke, he deliberately emphasized the words "parents". Upon hearing this, Zhu Yuan couldn't help but blush.
Is this a change of address? They were clearly calling each other uncle and aunt before...
Zhu Yuan thought so in his heart, but he did not feel disgusted by Zhe's previous address. He even became closer to him and subconsciously leaned on the latter's shoulder.
Zhu Yuan's favorability increased by 5 points, and the current favorability is 95 points. The emotional value gained is 1200 points, and the current emotional value is 25900 points.
The atmosphere was so good that Zhe didn't have the heart to speak and ruin this rare atmosphere, so in front of the subway station, he suddenly spoke.
"Zhu Yuan, if I have to lie to you temporarily for some reason, will you hate me?"
Zhu Yuan was stunned when she heard this. She obviously didn't expect Zhe to suddenly ask such a question, but she still spoke without thinking.
"No, since Zhe has said that, there must be something he can't explain. But I hope that if that situation really happens, you can trust me a little more."
While saying this, Zhu Yuan looked at Zhe in front of her seriously. She knew the other person's character and knew he would not say such words for no reason.
So this is more like a test, and my answer will determine whether Zhe will tell me the truth.
And it was obvious that her answer was correct. Zhe took a deep breath and then spoke again.
"Zhu Yuan, do you still remember the incident where the evidence was robbed?"
"Of course I remember. Wait, how did you…"
Zhu Yuan suddenly paused here, obviously thinking of something, and Zhe's next words confirmed her guess.
“Yes, Ling and I are [Phaethon].
We were very worried when you and Qingyi left so suddenly, and I was also concerned about the evidence, so I followed you."
Zhe chose to confess the matter first, but he also had his own considerations about it.
First of all, he himself also wanted to join the official organization. After all, this would be more conducive to investigating what happened that year.
Besides, Qingyi had told him before that with his and Ling's abilities, if they took the initiative to surrender, they would definitely be taken in by the Public Security Bureau.
Furthermore, compared to this, another matter was more likely to worsen the relationship between Zhu Yuan and himself...
"Why, why are you suddenly telling me this?"
