The man threw his follower a glint of displeasure. “You scared her!”
Ye Erruo was speechless.
Xu Xu was perplexed by his chief’s vicious glare. How had he scared her?
After taking her in his arms, he introduced the three of them to her. “Xu Xu, Zheng Yi, Wang Yiyang.”
She nodded at them and bowed slightly out of courtesy. “How do you do?”
“Were you the woman he picked up that night?” Xu Xu persisted.
Ye Erruo looked confused.
“Address her as your sister-in-law!” The man did not intend to hide her status from them.
“Sis… Sister-in-law?” The three of them had incredulous looks on their faces.
“Hurry up and pay your respects.”
“Sister-in-law, how are you?” Their voices boomed loud and clear.
So this woman hadn’t been picked up by him… Don’t tell me she came looking for him because she’s missed him?
“Were you the one who video-chatted with him that night?” Zheng Yi asked.
The woman was at a loss for words.
She could not understand what they were referring to at all.
“It’s her,” the man answered on her behalf.
“WOW!”
The three henchmen smiled suspiciously at her.
“Chief must have rushed home to marry his bride after being released from the army.” Wang Yiyang chuckled wickedly.
Hooking his lips up into a grin, Mo Jiangye said, “Don’t scare her.”
Then, he tugged her protectively into the yacht cabin.
Food and wine were lined up neatly inside the cabin.
“Let’s do it again.” He picked a small piece of cut apple with a toothpick and brought it to her lips.
“What?”
“Let’s jump again.”
“No way.” She refused without thinking about it twice.
“You didn’t like it?”
She exploded in fury. “In what way did I seem to enjoy the experience?”
He was itching to do it again with her.
“Let’s do it one more time.” He coaxed her along.
“So that you can bully me once more?” She raised her voice this time.
“That’s possible.”
“You’re shameless.”
He poured her a glass of warm water. “Is this your first time bungee jumping?”
“If not for you, I wouldn’t even have done it once.”
He beamed. “Really?”
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. “You better behave yourself.”
His eyes sparkled mischievously. “Let’s go bungee jumping again. You won’t get into danger with me around. Weren’t you very safe with me earlier?”
She half-squatted on him and glared at him warningly. “You can give up on the idea.” There was no way she would do it again.
“If one attempt is not possible, what about two?” He pushed her buttons further.
After pushing him away, she told him, “Dream on.”
She had been scared beyond words during the first jump. How could she possibly do it a second time?
“My dream is for us to be together.” 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. “Are you going back tomorrow?”
“That’ll depend on your performance.”
“…”
“If you agree to go bungee jumping with me again, who knows, we may even be able to return home later,” he told her with a knowing smile.
“I won’t force you if you don’t want to do it. Worst-case scenario, we can leave a few days later.”
“Mo Jiangye, you can be so childish!” 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, “I’m not messing with you.”
“If you aren’t taking me back, then I’ll go back myself.” 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. “Come over here.”
Ye Erruo pointed her fork at him. “What are you doing?”
