rejects, as mingling too much would only hurt you deeper. But if she accepts your deal, you’re definitely a lucky man, and everything else would be up to your own performances. You must have the ability of a superhuman if you wish to make a beautiful lady fall for you, especially a beauty of S-Ranked difficulty." Hu Yangxuan continued to explain like a wise man.

"I have to say, my friend, you’re totally a genius! You can seriously become an author if you do not wish to stay in the military anymore!"

w.a.n.g Tong slammed his arm onto Hu Yangxuan’s shoulder, then ran off the pub like a breeze of wind. After listening to Hu Yangxuan’s words, he realized he had found his solution. This would be the best way for Samantha to make up her mind. If she rejects, at least it would be the best way to end his misery!

"Yo, yo, I haven’t finished. Wait for me!" Hu Yangxuan finished his beer and stood up. As he was about to leave, he noticed someone was pulling his s.h.i.+rt.

"Why are you pulling my s.h.i.+rt?"

"Sir, the bill’s two thousand and three hundred. Three hundred is on the house, so the total would be only two thousand. Cash or card?"

"... w.a.n.g TONG, THE BILL!" Aside from being w.a.n.g Tong’s drinking and chatting companion, apparently, he was also his autopay machine.

Back in the office, Samantha had not been doing anything since then. She wasn’t able to concentrate as her mind was confused. Apparently, she had underestimated the influence of affection. In fact, a calm person would find it more difficult to control oneself when a loophole was discovered, because the person would begin to lose confidence.

All of a sudden, w.a.n.g Tong barged into her office without knocking, and the smell of alcohol was all around his body. It seemed like w.a.n.g Tong was trying to use alcohol as his confidence booster. He knew he wouldn’t have the b.a.l.l.s to do so if he wasn’t drunk.

Although Old Fart used to say women were troublesome, yet he had also mentioned that men should be brave regardless of the outcome. Men should strike whenever they found the perfect timing. However, Old Fart seemed to have owed a large sum of money after saying that.

"w.a.n.g..."

Samantha sensed trouble and tried to stop w.a.n.g Tong, but her reflexes were slower than him. w.a.n.g Tong hugged her tightly in his arms and surprised her with a deep kiss.

Within seconds, Samantha stopped struggling as she began to understand her feeling. The only action she took was pressing the b.u.t.ton and close the door of her office.

w.a.n.g Tong only let go of Samantha when he noticed she was out of breath. Samantha didn’t know if she should be angry or happy. Anyhow, things really had gone out of control.

w.a.n.g Tong could tell that Samantha was also interested in him from their kiss a while ago. Furthermore, he was not some regular childish kid since he had been through a lot, and his mental age was older than his peers. Moreover, he had never thought about interfering in Samantha’s ambition. After all, w.a.n.g Tong was not somebody who would randomly give up.

Even if he were to give up, he would still need to find out why.

As Samantha was planning to talk, w.a.n.g Tong silenced her by placing his finger gently over her lips, "Listen to me. I know you have more than thousands of excuses to reject me, and I know they would all sound right, and most of them would be facts. But even so, I’m not giving up on you. Life is short, youth is even shorter… and there’s no way to buy back youth. All I’m saying is …I don’t want the both of us to regret!"

Samantha smiled, "Alright then, do tell me what you’re trying to propose. But first, release me."

"Let me hug you a little longer!" w.a.n.g Tong insisted.

Samantha shook her head helplessly. Nevertheless, she enjoyed this feeling.

"Why don’t we make a deal? Give me four years, and I’ll prove to you that us being together is right!"

"Haha, you’re as capricious as always." Samantha knew what w.a.n.g Tong was trying to say. However, he was still very young and four years were too little for him to prove anything. She would never fall for a person simply because of those boring secular conditions. But at least, the guy had to be able to win her heart.

"Am I not being mature? I think it’s less complicated that way. How about this, let’s make another deal, using the compet.i.tion against Capth as a bet. Are you in?" w.a.n.g Tong was trying his best to win the heart of the beauty in his arms. The stronger she looked, the greater he desired to protect her.

"I’m listening."

"I’ll defeat Capth, but you have to promise me not to fall for another guy within these four years!" w.a.n.g Tong sounded very serious.

"Are you sure you want to make a deal with this?" Samantha wondered how men could be so confident without any reason. No one would dare to make a deal by using "defeating Capth" as the bet.

"Of course, I’m sure!" w.a.n.g Tong was very confident. He had been improving from time to time, and also been learning a lot in PA recently. Since he was able to defeat a strong elite like Jiang Long, he expected the candidates of Capth would be almost the same.

"Deal!"

"However, promise not to ignore me during this period of time. if I’m distracted because of this, I might lose and mess up everything!" w.a.n.g Tong laughed.

"Hmph, clearly that’s your true purpose for all of this. I really can’t believe a tough guy like you could be such a miser. But make sure you can keep this as a secret between us, or else, my days as Ayrlarng’s princ.i.p.al would be over." Samantha said shyly like a teenage girl in love. She was helpless in front of w.a.n.g Tong even though she was always rational. However, w.a.n.g Tong did know her weaknesses very well. If it weren't because of the previous deal they made during the compet.i.tion against Bernabeu, she would never develop any relations.h.i.+p with w.a.n.g Tong, and things would still remain under control.

"Well… you see..." w.a.n.g Tong hesitated.

"Oh G.o.d, please don’t tell me you’ve told someone about it!"

"I swear to G.o.d I didn’t say anything. But somehow, Hu Yangxuan managed to guess it."

Samantha wished she could find a hole and hide herself from the embarra.s.sment.

"Don’t worry, Hu Yangxuan would never mention this to anyone. I swear, except him, no one else knew about it!"

"It’s all your fault!"

Knock knock knock…

"Ma’am, it’s a video call from Senator Leston. He wishes to speak with you."

"Okay, Thank you very much."

Samantha was sort of unwilling to leave w.a.n.g Tong’s arms. She might be cool, but that didn’t mean that the warmth from a man would not be able to melt her heart. However, women were always better than men when it came to self-control.

"What are you looking at?"

Samantha had no idea how gorgeous she looked at this moment. People always said that the prettiest moment of a girl was the time she fell in love, and a cool beauty like Samantha was even prettier.

"Go wash your face and sober up. Make sure you do your best and walk the talk!"

"I’ll vanquish Capth alright… for the sake of our future!"

w.a.n.g Tong left the princ.i.p.al’s office happily. Compared to what happened in the afternoon, it was like heaven and h.e.l.l.

Samantha shook her head and stared at w.a.n.g Tong’s back as he turned around and left. She enjoyed this blissful feeling very much.

"Good day, Senator Leston."

"Princ.i.p.al Samantha, I’ve contacted tens of other senators, but they are demanding more results. Apparently, defeating Bernabeu itself was not enough."

"I’m well aware of that. Rest a.s.sured Senator, I’ll provide what you’re asking for."

"Anything good happened recently, Princ.i.p.al Samantha? I have to say that I’m impressed by your capabilities. However, please make sure you’re able to stay calm. Being too emotional is not a good sign in this industry." Senator Leston said in a calm voice.

"Thank you for your kind reminder, Mr. Senator." Samantha nodded gently without giving any explanation.

"Very well, everybody has high hopes for you."

Samantha turned off the screen and touched her cheeks. They were still hot… all thanks to that little imp.
