Out of control and sinking

It was pitch black outside, but a dim nightlight shone in the hotel bedroom; it was already late at night.
Hearing the murmurs, Bo Ye, who was lying next to her, reached out and pulled her into his arms.

A deep, husky voice sounded above his head: "What are you muttering about, hmm?"

Jiang Ruan pouted her red lips
When asked this question, Bo Ye smiled and said, "That's a philosophical question."

"I'd like to know the answer too."

Jiang Ruancai didn't believe it and snorted.

"what the hell."

"I'm not weak at all, I'm in great health."

He was clearly praising himself.

However, his preparedness still surprised her.

Jiang Ruan snuggled into his arms, her small hands encircling his narrow waist. She looked up at him expectantly and asked, "How many days are you planning to stay this time?"

Bring so many.

It definitely won't be used up in a day or two.

Otherwise, she would have to go to the hospital.

When questioned, Bo Ye looked down at her. Under the gentle night light, the man's angular face didn't seem as cold as usual.

He asked her gently, "How many days do you want me to stay?"

Jiang Ruan didn't lie and said frankly, "I'm very greedy, of course the longer the better."

As Bo Ye had expected.

But he said, "I estimate two days."

Bo Ye said, "There's a project to discuss in the Middle East. I'll head straight there from here and it might take me half a month to get back."

Upon hearing the word "Middle East," Jiang Ruan's alarm bells immediately went off. She frowned and asked, "What kind of projects could there be over there?"

"The Middle East is so dangerous; I've heard there's war everywhere."

She asked nervously, "Can't we not go? Or can't we send someone from your company instead?"

Does he really have to go by himself?
What happened last time was enough to frighten Jiang Ruan. Even now, thinking about it still makes her shudder.

It was such a close call; if he had actually taken that plane...

They are now separated by death.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ruan couldn't help but feel heartbroken.

Now that she heard he was going to the Middle East, Jiang Ruan's good mood vanished instantly.

Bo Ye hugged her tighter, his tone indifferent: "No, this project is huge and involves many aspects. If we don't reach an agreement, it will be a huge loss for the group later on."

He gently patted her back to comfort her, "Don't be afraid, it's just a project meeting, nothing will happen."

Jiang Ruan said sullenly, "But I'm worried about you."

“We’ve already communicated with the embassy there,” Bo Ye said. “There will be people accompanying us the whole time, so nothing will go wrong. Besides, there are so many planes taking off every day in the world, it’s impossible for every plane to have an accident.”

"Moreover, the plane I took this time was sent by the embassy. It's the latest model this year, and the one that crashed before can't compare to this one."

Jiang Ruan knew he was trying to comfort her.

I also know that he is a stubborn person, and once he makes a decision, no one can easily change it.

She sighed, "I know I can't persuade you otherwise."

"But Bo Ye, can you promise me one thing?"

She looked at him with a serious expression.

Bo Ye said, "You speak."

"Keep your phone on and call, don't let me be unable to reach you." She sighed, "Otherwise, I'll start overthinking."

"I'm afraid something will happen to you, you know that?"
