The man threw his follower a glint of displeasure. âYou scared her!â
Ye Erruo was speechless.
Xu Xu was perplexed by his chiefâs vicious glare. How had he scared her?
After taking her in his arms, he introduced the three of them to her. âXu Xu, Zheng Yi, Wang Yiyang.â
She nodded at them and bowed slightly out of courtesy. âHow do you do?â
âWere you the woman he picked up that night?â Xu Xu persisted.
Ye Erruo looked confused.
âAddress her as your sister-in-law!â The man did not intend to hide her status from them.
âSis... Sister-in-law?â The three of them had incredulous looks on their faces.
âHurry up and pay your respects.â
âSister-in-law, how are you?â Their voices boomed loud and clear.
So this woman hadnât been picked up by him... Donât tell me she came looking for him because sheâs missed him?
âWere you the one who video-chatted with him that night?â Zheng Yi asked.
The woman was at a loss for words.
She could not understand what they were referring to at all.
âItâs her,â the man answered on her behalf.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âWOW!â
The three henchmen smiled suspiciously at her.
âChief must have rushed home to marry his bride after being released from the army.â Wang Yiyang chuckled wickedly.
Hooking his lips up into a grin, Mo Jiangye said, âDonât scare her.â
Then, he tugged her protectively into the yacht cabin.
Food and wine were lined up neatly inside the cabin.
âLetâs do it again.â He picked a small piece of cut apple with a toothpick and brought it to her lips.
âWhat?â
âLetâs jump again.â
âNo way.â She refused without thinking about it twice.
âYou didnât like it?â
She exploded in fury. âIn what way did I seem to enjoy the experience?â
He was itching to do it again with her.
âLetâs do it one more time.â He coaxed her along.
âSo that you can bully me once more?â She raised her voice this time.
âThatâs possible.â
âYouâre shameless.â
He poured her a glass of warm water. âIs this your first time bungee jumping?â
âIf not for you, I wouldnât even have done it once.â
He beamed. âReally?â
That made him so...
His three men entered the cabin and hastily retreated after stumbling upon their conversation.
Embarrassed, she pinned him down on the chair and threatened him. âYou better behave yourself.â
His eyes sparkled mischievously. âLetâs go bungee jumping again. You wonât get into danger with me around. Werenât you very safe with me earlier?â
She half-squatted on him and glared at him warningly. âYou can give up on the idea.â There was no way she would do it again.
âIf one attempt is not possible, what about two?â He pushed her buttons further.
After pushing him away, she told him, âDream on.â
She had been scared beyond words during the first jump. How could she possibly do it a second time?
âMy dream is for us to be together.â With those words, he reached out and hugged her.
She quickly pulled herself away to a safe corner before throwing him a question with an angry stare. âAre you going back tomorrow?â
âThatâll depend on your performance.â
â...â
âIf you agree to go bungee jumping with me again, who knows, we may even be able to return home later,â he told her with a knowing smile.
âI wonât force you if you donât want to do it. Worst-case scenario, we can leave a few days later.â
âMo Jiangye, you can be so childish!â she yelled at him.
Outside the cabin, the three men cocked their brows as they eavesdropped by the door.
He looked at her seriously and said, âIâm not messing with you.â
âIf you arenât taking me back, then Iâll go back myself.â She reached for the fork and pierced some grapes lying on the table.
He raised his brow at her devilishly and moved his hand toward her. âCome over here.â
Ye Erruo pointed her fork at him. âWhat are you doing?â
