Chapter 114: An Underwater Kiss
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“Oh right, Master, that b*tch Jiang Yining…” He Ming just started speaking when Huo Tingchen raised his hand and slapped him across the face.
A mountain of a man like him didn’t dare to fight back even when he was humiliated like this. He Ming just covered his numbed face as he knelt obediently on the floor.
“Don’t call her a b*tch.” Huo Tingchen’s voice did not change at all but his tone was bone-chilling.
“Got it.” He Ming nodded respectfully.
Huo Tingchen took out some hand sanitizer and cleaned his hands before he said unhurriedly, “I want that girl. Tell your subordinates to stand down and not to touch her. I’ll kill any idiot who dares to touch her.”
“Yes, Master. Understood.”
He Ming responded respectfully despite his wish to cut Jiang Yining into a thousand pieces this very minute.
All he could do was to endure. After all, his boss wanted to protect this woman.
“Don’t tell He Lian about what happened today. She’s not in good health.”
“Yes, Master.”
“You may go now.”
Huo Tingchen waved his hand.
Only then did He Ming dare to get up. He bowed his head and left the room.
The next day…
Jiang Yining got up from her bed with visible dark circles under her eyes.
She didn’t sleep well last night.
Even in her dreams, she was thinking about how to defeat He Ming and his gang.
It was past three in the morning, and she was still tossing and turning. She got out of bed and finished her plan. It wasn’t until past 7 a.m. when she finally fell sleep.
But she had a very tricky problem on her hands now. She needed a quiet place to focus on hacking into the casino’s system so she could plant a spyware to collect evidence of their crimes.
She definitely couldn’t do that at home.
Lu Zhi was already suspicious of her identity.
Wouldn’t she be courting death if she did that right under his nose?
If she went to Ye Xiaoxi’s place, her friend would be worried that she was in danger and make a big fuss…
Jiang Yining thought as she got out of bed and put all the papers containing information she found last night into the shredder.
After she was done cleaning up, she walked out of her room with a yawn.
She stretched as she walked to the rooftop…
She wanted to get some fresh air, and she didn’t want to have breakfast with Lu Zhi downstairs.
She wanted to wait for him to leave before she went downstairs.
When Jiang Yining arrived at the rooftop, she looked at the huge open-air swimming pool and lamented Lu Zhi’s extravagance.
Such a big pool and no one had ever swum here…
She walked to the fridge and took out a bottle of coconut water.
She then lay comfortably on a deck chair by the pool and enjoyed the 9 a.m. sun.
Suddenly, there was a loud splash.
A vigorous figure jumped out of the water like a fish.
The explosion of water splashed onto Jiang Yining.
She sat up and looked over.
It was Lu Zhi in a pair of black swimming trunks, with all his firm muscles showing.
The faint golden rays of dawn fell on his body, coating him like a halo.
Clear water droplets slowly dripped down his wheat-colored skin…
Jiang Yining choked and spat out all the coconut juice in her mouth.
Why was he here?
Wasn’t he afraid of catching a cold swimming so early in the morning?
“What are you doing here?”
Lu Zhi said as he took a white towel and wiped his upper body.
Jiang Yining eyes followed his hands to his neatly arranged eight-pack abs.
How could someone with a congenital disorder have such a good figure?
It was really odd. Jiang Yining thought to herself.
But she said, “You can come up here, but I can’t? Don’t forget our agreement. I have the freedom to move about in this house and go wherever 1 want.”
“I didn’t say that you can’t come here.” Lu Zhi said, sensing the hostility in her words.
Jiang Yining remained silent and got up to leave.
As the floor was wet from all the splashing water, it was slippery.
She had barely stood up when she slipped and fell into the swimming pool.
She subconsciously reached out to grab Lu Zhi.
But Lu Zhi just looked at her coldly without any intention of saving her.
Kerplunk!
Water splashed everywhere!
Jiang Yining’s head popped out of the water as she cried, “I can’t swim… Help…
Cough, cough, cough…”
Halfway through her cry for help, she sank back into the pool.
She kept coughing as she drowned.
Lu Zhi ignored her for a few seconds. When he saw her struggling weaken, he relented and jumped into the pool.
However, just as he swam up to her, Jiang Yining suddenly surfaced and wrapped her arms around his neck and her legs around his waist.
Her entire body was like an octopus, firmly trapping him.
“Let’s see if you’ll withhold assistance to a person in danger again!”
She had always been a vengeful person!
Lu Zhi didn’t save her on purpose. Of course, she had to take revenge!
Water soaked through her clothes, making her look naked as their bodies pressed tightly together.
Lu Zhi said with a solemn expression, “Let go.”
“I’m not letting go of you. You are staying in the pool with me!”
After Jiang Yining finished speaking, she pushed him down into the water.
Then, they quickly sank.
This swimming pool was custom-built for Lu Zhi and was 2.8 meters deep.
The two of them dove deep but they still hadn’t touched the bottom of the pool.
Jiang Yining held her breath and challenged Lu Zhi smugly underwater.
Lu Zhi’s pitch-black eyes were fixed on her without any sign of struggle.
As time passed, the air in Jiang Yining’s lungs gradually depleted.
She decided to surface before she ran out of air.
But Lu Zhi grabbed her shoulders and kept her underwater.
Jiang Yining glared at him.
She was just kidding with him. He didn’t have to murder her!
Lu Zhi calmly treaded water while he watched her struggle.
Jiang Yining’s face slowly turned red.
She felt like she was going to die and started cursing in her heart.
But at this moment…
Lu Zhi, who was indifferent at first, suddenly lowered his head and kissed her.
Jiang Yining’s eyes widened in an instant.
She kept her mouth closed so he couldn’t take advantage of her.
But Lu Zhi breathed out fresh air, and her body instinctively wanted to absorb it.
Hence, she could not help but open her mouth.
The water was so clear that one could see the bottom of the pool. Sunlight penetrated the water and scattered around the two of them.
Jiang Yining could clearly see his eyes that were like black holes.
After an unknown period, Lu Zhi finally showed mercy and kicked his legs to bring them to the surface.
Jiang Yining sat on the pool coping and took a few deep breaths.
She then recalled what just happened and raised her hand to slap Lu Zhi.
But she failed as Lu Zhi grabbed her wrist.
“Bastard, let go!”
Jiang Yining’s cheeks were flushed from anger.
“Tell me why you are slapping me first.”
“I slap you because I want to. Do I need a reason?” Jiang Yining argued.
“Yes. No one can touch me for no reason.” Lu Zhi answered unhurriedly.
Must she tell him that she slapped him because he took advantage of her?
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
