Chapter 372
Meanwhile, Ro remained frozen until the door of the ward was closed. After that, he headed
straight to the bedside and looked down at her arm. "Your ex- husband''s marksmanship is not bad.
He was even able to move the gun and shoot aside to save your arm in such an emergency."
At that moment, Ariah nced at him and asked suspiciously, "What''s with the wound on your
face?"
The area around his eyes was swollen, and the skin at the corner of his mouth was torn, bleeding
faintly. It was quite scary.
With a faint smile, Ro answered, "I fought with someone before I came to visit you."
That answer left Ariah speechless.
"Don''t you want to know what happened to the person?"

"Uh, what happened?"
"The doctor is currently bandaging his wounds. The condition of his injuries is more serious
compared to mine."
"In that case, I''ll mourn for him."
Clearly, Ariah had seen Ro''s skills. In fact, she and Ro met each other by fate when she went
to the bar to drink and ended up being molested by a group of hooligans. In a hurry, Ariah grabbed
him and asked him to call the police. As a result, Ro alone took those ten hooligans down that
night.
A few of them were even seriously injured and were admitted to the hospital. However, Ariah didn''t
know what happened to them in the end.
It has been many years since Ariah stayed by Jimmy''s side. Sometimes, Jimmy would bring home
some documents from work, and Ariah would asionally look through them. Over time, Ariah had
developed prating insight skills.
In fact, she also had an intuition for those who might be a threat. Just like Jimmy, when he
encountered criminals, he also had an intuition deep in his heart, and he could tell whether the other
party was unkind.
Well, she did get the feeling of unkindness from Ro.
Supposedly, Ariah should stay away from a person like him. However, he was the one who saved
her life after all, and if it wasn''t for him the other night, she would definitely have faced a terrible
ending.
Although he didn''t seem like a good person, at least he didn''t do anything to hurt her.
"What are you thinking about?"
While Ariah was deep in her thoughts, Ro''s low and hoarse voice pulled her back.
At that moment, Ariah blurted out, "I was thinking about how we met."
With a faint smile, Ro asked, "I was a hero who saved the damsel in distress that night. Shouldn''t
you repay me by throwing yourself in my arms?"
A hero? With her lips curled, Ariah muttered, "Are you even a hero? I think you''re more like a bad
person."
It was a very soft voice, and only she knew what she was talking about, but Ro was able to hear
every word she said.
Insidiously, Ro smiled and lowered his body as he stared at her with his brown eyes. "That night
when you asked me for help, I did tell you that I was more terrible than those hooligans. Besides, I
did ask you if you still wanted me to save you, but you immediately nodded without saying
anything."
When Ariah heard those words, she gulped. That was indeed the case.
However, the situation was urgent at that time, and there was no time for her to think about it. As
long as someone could save her from that situation, she did not care whether he was a hero or a
devil.
"Hey... don''te so close to me!" Ro''s scent filled her nose which made her ufortable.
"Stay away from me!"
After Ro stared at her for a long time, he smiled and said, "Women are indeed ruthless. Last
night when you hugged me to sleep, you were not as ruthless as you are now!"
Immediately, Ariah''s face turned pale. After he mentioned it, the incident that happened in the
morning flooded her mind.
In fact, the moment when she opened her eyes and saw that she was lying on the same bed as
Ro, her head was already in a daze.
However, the next second when Jimmy barged in, his eyes turned red, and he fought with Ro like
a mad man. All the things that could be demolished in her house were all torn down by the two of
them... Things ended the moment Jimmy shot her, and she was then sent to the hospital and
entered the operating room. Now she was awake, but the matter was brought up again by him.
As Ariah tried to remember what happened the night before, she stared into his brown eyes and
asked slowly, "Nothing happened between us, right?"
Eloquently, Ro smiled and said, "You have a mole on your chest..."
In an instant, Ariah''s face turned pale.
How did he know about such a private matter??
Could it be...
Wait, something seemed to be wrong!
Those thoughts left Ariah''s mind in a mess. After she zoned out for a few seconds, she forced
herself to calm down as she uttered, "Even if things were as ambiguous as you said, it is still my
own body, and I clearly know whether I had an affair with you. I don''t feel anything on my body, so
why did you lie to me?"
"Because..." After Ro stared at her for two seconds, he smiled and said, "It''s because it seems
fun to tease you, so I wanted to see how you would react when you''re panicking!"
"You..."
At that moment, Ariah really wanted to beat him up.
Instantly, Ro''s wide palm pressed down on her shoulder, as he said in a slightly low voice, "Stay
where you are and don''t move. Are you trying to rip your wounds apart again?"
However, Ariah pped him with her hand that was free to move around. "Don''t touch me!"
Since this b*stard was deliberately lying to her, Ariah didn''t have to put on a good act for him.
"Is this how you treat your lifesaver?" Lazily, Ro pulled over a chair and sat down.
After Ariah took a deep breath, she forced herself to calm down. "Didn''t you leavest night? Why
were you still at my house when I woke up the next day? And why were you sleeping on my bed?"
In fact, Ro did leave her house the night before, but he went backter. When he went back, he
found that she was alone at home, trying to get herself drunk. The coffee table was full of empty
bottles, and she was wasted.
At that time, Ro even thought that she was smart because she knew that it would be dangerous
for a beautiful woman like her to go to the bar alone, so she bought wine to enjoy alone at home.
Although it was very safe, it was also very boring.
Since he had nothing to do, so he sat on the sofa and stayed with her. Then, he took the remaining
wine and drank with her.
As they had their wine, Ariah began to hug him and started crying. While she cried, she even called
out Jimmy''s name.
"The door of my house has a special security system. How did you get in without the key?"
Suspiciously, Ariah asked.
However, Ro gave her a faint look and answered, "Of course I have my own way. There is
nowhere that I can''t go."
Tsk.
Why did he have to be so full of himself?
At that moment, Ariah didn''t believe what he said at all, but she also couldn''t figure out how did he
enter her house. It made her wondered if it was time to change to a better lock.
The two of them had been talking for a long time, and Ariah was afraid that Sharon would be
worried, so she immediately drove him away, "I want to rest, so please leave. Even if you saved my
life once, you can''t stop me from trying to rest now, right?"
After Ariah said those words, Ro didn''t get up. In fact, he kept staring at her face as if he didn''t
hear what she said.
As Ariah frowned, she asked, "Why are you looking at me?"
"Why did you take the bullet for me?"
Finally, he asked that question.
With her arms spread, Ariah answered, "You too, saved me back then, didn''t you?"
"Was that really the case?" With his sharp eyes, it almost made it hard for her to catch her breath.
After Ariah licked her lips, she nodded, "Of course, or else why do you think I would do that?"
Then, Ro got up and smiled. "No matter what is the reason, you still took a bullet for me, so I now
owe you a favor." Suddenly, he paused, then continued, "It''s not easy for me to owe someone a
favor. You are very lucky."
Those words left Ariah speechless.
She had never seen such an arrogant man before.
Just as Ro was about to open the door, he thought of something and looked back at her. "Is
Jimmy your ex- husband? Are you both divorced?"
Instantly, Ariah narrowed her eyes and asked, "What does this have to do with you?"
"It''s nothing. I''m just curious." With a sneer, he answered, "I thought you took the bullet for me
because you were afraid that your ex-husband would be a killer. After all, your ex-husband is a
policeman. If he pulled the trigger at civilian, I bet you know better than me about how serious the
consequences would be."
