Even if he didn’t like her, was it okay to torment her ? She was a delicate flower afterall, how could he treat her so ruthlessly?
"If you’re fine, then naturally, I am too." Jun Mochan was supremely confident.
"I...." Song Yue was about to retort, but changed her mind, "Alright, I’ll go."
If she couldn’t, wouldn’t she end up stuck?
With the thought of capsizing in mind, Song Yue got on the wooden raft.
Jun Mochan pushed the raft a bit farther out, scaring Song Yue into closing her eyes, her body twisting in fright.
"Ah, I can’t, I’m scared." She leaned to one side, falling into the sea.
Of course, Song Yue could swim, but at the current moment, even if she could, she wanted to pretend she couldn’t!
"Help, help." Song Yue struggled in the sea, her eyes sneaking glances at Jun Mochan.
She noticed him standing at the shore, hands behind his back, with no intention of saving her.
As she continued to flounder, she was sinking. Song Yue had no choice but to pretend to grab onto the wood and surface.
"Why didn’t you save me?" She asked, unpainted but skinsmooth, droplets of water sliding down her hair, making her look even more beautiful than a lotus emerging from water.
Jun Mochan admitted, Song Yue was charming, and had what it took to drive men mad. If he was single, he may have given her a chance.
But now, he had Ye Ranran. He loved her, and only wanted to protect her.
"Isn’t that obvious?"
Facing Song Yue’s irritated look, Jun Mochan’s smile remained unchanged. He nonchalantly said, "I heard this is the fastest way to learn swimming. We don’t know how long it will take for us to encounter people or boats, so knowing how to swim isn’t a bad thing."
Jun Mochan was speaking more to her than he ever had. If it weren’t for the context, Song Yue would have been overjoyed.
After hearing what he actually said, she was speechless and furious.
"Weren’t you afraid that I’d drown?"
"I noticed, as soon as you got on you leaned to the right, and there wasn’t any panic in your eyes. Any normal person would try to maintain balance, swaying side to side. Although you did at the start, I need to tell you, you fell in too early!"
Coming from a military background, particularly special forces, Jun Mochan’s observational skills were top-notch.
The number of women who had tried to seduce him from his childhood till now is uncountable, and yet, none had ever succeeded!
No matter how crafty Song Yue was, she was no match for him.
Some things were becoming clearer in his mind, a pity that there was no proof.
Jun Mochan concluded that once they returned, he would thoroughly investigate the woman in front of him.
The smile disappeared from Song Yue’s face, she didn’t know what expression to make.
Should she be happy that the man she was interested in was so capable? But that was also the sad part because his heart didn’t belong to her.
"Do you want to go back? If you like it here, I don’t mind."
"Of course I want to return, who would want to stay here?" Seizing the opportunity, Song Yue hastily responded.
"I admit, I do like you a bit. That’s because I don’t believe we can get out of here, and to put it simply, it’s too lonely here!"
Jun Mochan didn’t respond, it wasn’t clear whether he was listening or ignoring her.
In reality, Jun Mochan didn’t care about this minor hiccup, he tested the raft again and found that it could indeed bear their combined weight!
"Pack up tonight, we’re leaving tomorrow." Jun Mochan said, looking at the distant glow of sunset.
