"They all start with the same phrase," she says finally. "Just one word: ''remember.''"
Chen Ming''s expression is unreadable, but he asks her to continue. Chen Bing tells him about the first message, which was sent several weeks ago. It was a simple text, just three words: "You''re not safe."
"I know it sounds strange," Chen Bing says, "but I feel like something is off. Like someone is playing a game with me, waiting for me to make a move." She pauses, looking at Chen Ming with a questioning expression.
Chen Ming nods slowly, his eyes locked on hers. "I believe you," he says finally. "And I''ll do whatever it takes to keep you safe."
As they sit there, Chen Bing can feel the tension between them building. It''s like a spark has been lit, and she knows that things are about to get interesting.
"You''re not like other men," Chen Bing says, her voice barely above a whisper. "You have this... intensity around you. Like you''re always on the verge of something."
Chen Ming looks away, his expression neutral. But Chen Bing can see the hint of a smile playing on his lips.
