Young Master Lu's Lovely New Bride

Chapter 449 - Almost Obsessed With Him

Xiao Yunyun deepened her hard breathing—

She had not overcome her fear of water yet.

She didn’t know how to drive a motorboat.

Being the case, she would want Shen Yuechuan alive until she could reach the island and kick him out of it!

While laughing, Shen Yuechuan noticed Xiao Yunyun’s murderous look on her face. Realizing that he shouldn’t have acted like that, he stopped laughing and said, “As kids, everyone has something to be ashamed of. May I share with you a shame of mine?”

“Huh?” Xiao Yunyun intentionally scoffed, “Really? Special Assistant Shen, did you have something to be ashamed of when you were a kid? I thought you were living the life of a noble that we ordinary people could hardly imagine.”

“…” It seemed that Shen Yuechuan was stunned, and the smile on his face was fading away. In the end, he feigned a smile with the intention of covering something up.

He didn’t respond, while his handsome face looked as skittish as it had always been. Seeing that, Xiao Yunyun suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of confusion.

Shen Yuechuan looked skittish. Not as a rogue would, but like a variable gust of breeze with an unconventional casualness, which sometimes turned to be his charm rather than what made others dislike him.

However, as soon as she finished her words, she noticed Shen Yuechuan’s complex emotions from his eyes, which looked dim and upset, serving as a foil to his feigned smile as well as his casualness.

Xiao Yunyun opened her mouth, and before she could say a word, Shen Yuechuan suddenly smiled and said, “Well. I’ve been living an easy and glorious life since I was a kid. And I never had a shameful event. I was just thinking of making a story to comfort you. Now that you’ve seen me through—” He gave a shrug and continued saying, “Forget it then.”

In fact, he had dozens of stories to tell.

Because of his black hair and black eyes that were different from those of other kids in the orphanage, he had been bullied many times until he fought back.

As they got older, at school they used to get teased about their identity as orphans, and that had always made them feel ashamed. One day he went to the guy who had taken the lead in bullying them and taught him a lesson.

“The one who was living an easy life was Xiao Yunyun, who would never understand it,” he thought, even if he told her his story.

Seeing Shen Yuechuan’s feigned smiling face, then hearing his unintelligible voice, Xiao Yunyun couldn’t tell whether he was telling the truth. However, she tried not to think about it and chose to trust him, then she asked, “How long will it take us to get to the island?”

Shen Yuechuan checked the time and said, “About 40 minutes. Hang on.”

As soon as his voice died down, the motorboat suddenly accelerated; waves from both sides sprayed on Xiao Yunyun.

Xiao Yunyun was so scared that with her eyes squeezed shut, she grabbed Shen Yuechuan by his arm while screaming, “Shen Yuechuan, slow down! Ah! D*mn you!”

Shen Yuechuan didn’t care at all about Xiao Yunyun’s harsh words. He steered the motorboat at ease while saying, “What an experience. Don’t close your eyes anymore. Just be brave and open them!”

Xiao Yunyun roared with anger, “F*ck off!”

However, she opened her eyes.

The motorboat moved like a vigorous seagull on the calm sea, breaking its surface with the waves surging one after another. If she put aside her fear, it would be an experience similar to one from The Fast and the Furious.

As she started to enjoy it, Xiao Yunyun couldn’t help fixing her eyes on Shen Yuechuan.

As he leisurely steered the motorboat, the leviathan in her eyes turned into a docile creature in his hand; its movement, speed and direction were all under his control.

When men focused on something, such as driving, they turned out to be quite handsome. And so did Shen Yuechuan, a good looking man.

Xiao Yunyun gazed at him, entranced, and not until a long while later did she come to her senses. As if trying to hide something, she told herself, “Luckily I know what Shen Yuechuan is like, or I would be obsessed with him.”

Just then, Shen Yuechuan turned his head to look at Xiao Yunyun and said, “How about giving it a try?”

Xiao Yunyun looked away in a hurry and moved her eyes from Shen Yuechuan to the boundless ocean. “No!” she said.

“Coward.” Shen Yuechuan didn’t notice her abnormality, just sneering. Then he said to Xiao Yunyun, “I’m speeding it up. Hang on.”

“No. Please don’t…” Before Xiao Yunyun could finish her words, the motorboat speeded up unexpectedly. She was so scared that she grabbed Shen Yuechuan by his arm, unable to cry out.

Shen Yuechuan glanced at her little hand, how it grabbed his arm like an octopus. Thinking that, on the boundless ocean Xiao Yunyun had to rely on him, he felt indescribably satisfied, as if—

There was a sudden blossoming in his heart.

Shen Yuechuan smiled while whistling, and stopped accelerating to pull in to shore at an appropriate speed.

As he steered, just in time, the motorboat reached the island after 40 minutes.

He handed their baggage to the island staff, jumped nimbly off the motorboat only to find Xiao Yunyun still on it, motionless. He raised his chin in bewilderment and asked her with a teasing look, “Are you loath to part with it?”

“I…” Xiao Yunyun looked at Shen Yuechuan helplessly and said, “I’m getting cold feet.”

“Coward.” While complaining, Shen Yuechuan stretched out his hands toward Xiao Yunyun and said, “Come on.”

With her hands in Shen Yuechuan’s, Xiao Yunyun finally got off the motorboat smoothly with his help. After a few steps, she saw Su Jianan and Lu Boyan walking toward her, hand in hand.

Xiao Yunyun excitedly waved to Su Jianan. As Su Jianan got closer, she suddenly noticed the smile on Su Jianan’s face, which seemed to be… meaningful.

Xiao Yunyun thought, “Oh, what did she see?”

Just then, Su Jianan came up to them, giving her an understanding smile and said, “You can settle your things first. Take your time. We’ll wait for you.”

“Cousin, I…”

Xiao Yunyun failed to explain, while Su Jianan gently patted her shoulder and said, “I saw it. I see.” With that, she walked away, smiling.

“…”

Xiao Yunyun only wanted to shout at Su Jianan’s back, “What you saw isn’t the whole story!”

Seeing Xiao Yunyun eagerly staring at Su Jianan’s receding figure, Shen Yuechuan thought that she couldn’t wait to board the yacht, so he said, “Go with her. I’ll take care of your baggage.”

“No!” Xiao Yun turned and glared at Shen Yuechuan. “Why do I need your help? Do we have a good relationship!?” With that, before Shen Yuechuan could reply, she angrily trotted toward the staff who was carrying her baggage.

Shen Yuechuan stood there, blanked out, while touching his nose innocently; it took him some time to come to his senses after Xiao Yunyun’s roar.

He thought, “D*mn it. She’s taking my kindness as ill-intended. I’ve never carried baggage for ladies, you know? She’s really an ungrateful wretch!”

Su Jianan and Lu Boyan were not too far away from them, and the two naturally heard Xiao Yunyun’s roar.

On the shore, Lu Boyan carefully held Su Jianan to help her board the yacht while asking, “It seems that you tried to help but caused more trouble, right?”

“Well, not really.” Su Jianan meticulously analyzed, “This is where things are going. Yunyun will soon find that her mood is seriously affected by Yuechuan. Once she notices this, it won’t take long for her to realize that she likes him.”

As the saying went, those closely involved can’t see as clearly as those outside. Although Shen Yuechuan and Xiao Yunyun had always been in chaos, from what they did and said, Su Jianan could still smell something about them—the two had good impressions of each other.

In Su Jianan’s opinion, if all went well, they would be a couple.

Lu Boyan looked Su Jianan up and down, smiling. Then he asked at leisure, “When did you become so experienced?”

Su Jianan knew what Lu Boyan was expecting to hear, so she hesitated for a moment and decided to meet his expectation!

“When I was in college!” Su Jianan said, “At that time I tried to keep a balance between my studies and a part-time job, so there was only half an hour left every day for me to think the world of you.”

Lu Boyan raised his eyebrow with interest and asked, “How?”

“By reading the news and reports about you!” Su Jianan frankly said, “Typing your name into the search bar, pressing the Enter key. And then, on the webpage the words ‘Lu Boyan’ marked red all leaped to my eyes. The news were all about you.” She suddenly stopped talking and laughed. Afterward, she said, “You can’t tell how I felt then.”

Lu Boyan disliked showing up in public, and he had kept his private life with a low profile; the internet had very little news about him as a result.

Being the case, each time Su Jianan entered his name to search, the things she found were usually nothing new.

However, each time she saw the screen full of the words “Lu Boyan,” she felt inexplicably happy, as if he were there on the screen; once she looked at it, she was full of joy.

As long as she clicked and read the reports about him, she could be happy for a long time, despite the fact that she had read them thousands of times.

At that time, all the news about Lu Boyan were great for her. After a newspaper reported about him, she became a loyal reader without hesitation.

Actually, Lu Boyan knew how she felt—it was the same for him when he looked at her photo, which made him happy but unsatisfied.

He felt happy because all that had happened to Su Jianan, no matter what it was, he could know as he liked.

What dissatisfied him was that he could only know the newest things about her, while being unable to show up in front of her, let alone be close to her.

Moreover, as Su Jianan grew up, her facial features became more and more delicate. And from time to time, he had dreamed of her falling in love with another man, in a tailored wedding dress the man got for her, walking hand in hand with that man into a wedding hall.

Fortunately, he took her hand in time.

Lu Boyan held Su Jianan from behind with his chin against her shoulder. “Who says I can’t tell?”

“…” Su Jianan felt surprised, then she laughed out loud.

Lu Boyan turned his head and saw Su Jianan’s smile on her face, then he asked, “Shall we do Yuechuan and Yunyun a favor?”
