An idea even initiated in her heart. She thought, 'From today onward, I, Jasmine, am willing to do anything for Master Wade. If he asks me to sacrifice myself, I won’t hesitate or complain!’ 4
Charlie did not know Jasmine's inner thoughts. He only used a soft voice to comfort her, saying," Jasmine, there's no need to thank me, let alone mention my grace and mercy. You’re my friend. Me saving you is perfectly justified. Forget about Japan, even if you were in deep trouble, I, Charlie, won’t say anything, but save you again. 5
Charlie was actually trying to convey how steadfast he was to his friends and in friendships. But, unexpectedly, to Jasmine's ears, it had become the world's most touching and sentimental expression!
At that point, her love for Charlie increased a thousandfold. She even wanted to hug him so tightly, a s if her whole person was inside his bones. 3
Her heart was filled with love for Charlie. In the spur o f the moment, she tip-toed and took the initiative to kiss Charlie's lips.
This was Jasmine’s second kiss to Charlie.
It was also the second kiss in her life.
Her lips were cold with a mild salty taste due to her tears. Charlie felt pity all of a sudden. 4
As Jasmine kissed Charlie, both her hands also hugged him tightly. 3
At this moment, how she wished that time would stop moving so that she could forever be in this beautiful moment with her beloved. 1
Even if her life ended now, she would still be satisfied.
What a pity that reality was not a fairy tale.
While she was immersed in the kiss, there were whistling sounds of the helicopters which had come from the valley not far away.
Charlie immediately turned his head to see. In the sky, three helicopters were flying in formation toward them.
Charlie quickly comforted her, "Jasmine, their deaths will not be in vain!"
Wiping away her tears, Jasmine nodded and said confidently, "That’s why I need to make a police report and let them catch the culprits to bring justice for the three of them!"
Charlie shook his head and said earnestly, "You're not familiar with the place and people in Tokyo.
Therefore, lodging a police report will not be useful. Instead, you might alert the culprits."
Jasmine hurriedly asked, "Master Wade, does that mean I should not make a police report?"
“Correct!" Nodding his head, Charlie continued, " Jasmine, now we're unsure whether there are people i n Japan or Oskia that want to kill you. So, making a police report in Japan won’t solve anything. If you believe in me, let me handle this case. I'll find out the truth for you and the three who died!"
