Chapter 445: Chapter 445: She Never Fails to Get What She Wants (6)

Gu Nuan turned around to see him, her face showing confusion, "Did you wake up?"

Xiao Yebai felt a huge weight lifted from his heart upon seeing her standing in front of him unharmed and he questioned, "Didn’t you hear my phone ringing?"

Gu Nuan came back to her senses, hung up Zhong Qiaohui’s call, and looked through her call log, where she saw the missed calls from ’husband’.

"You couldn’t hear it, could you?" His face suddenly changed, his gaze becoming very deep as he stared at her face.

Gu Nuan shook her head, "No, I was just captivated by the beautiful scenery and didn’t pay attention."

"You can’t lie to me, I’m telling you!"

His sudden loud voice startled both her and the child standing nearby.

Gu Nuan frowned and said, "Why would I lie to you? I can hear you speaking now, can’t I?"

Xiao Yebai, having nothing to say to that, extended his hands and grasped her arms, scrutinizing her as if assessing her entire body.

Suddenly, Gu Nuan felt that it was she who had been frightened by him.

Calming her racing heart, she softly told him, "I just came out for a walk, are you sure you’ve woken up?"

"Sleep, had a dream," he said in a fuzzy voice.

"What dream?" Gu Nuan studied the expression on his face.

"Nothing," he suddenly wiped the sweat from his forehead as if he were sweating.

But from the furtive glances he threw her way, she could tell it wasn’t a pleasant dream.

"What did you see here that made you linger and forget to return, leaving me alone in the room?" Xiao Yebai suddenly complained, walking next to her and seeing the endless ocean, the developments sprouting up in the distance, which contrasted sharply with the run-down village behind them.

"The ocean seems really beautiful," Gu Nuan said.

Hearing her, Xiao Yebai knew it was just an offhand remark. Slightly squinting, he wrapped his long arms around her and drew her into his embrace. Then, the cold sea breeze blew over them, making them cling tighter to each other, feeling each other’s body warmth.

Gu Nuan felt a bit embarrassed, noticing a group of children nearby watching them with interest.

The big white dog then chased the children away as if he were herding ducks, saying, "Go on, go, what’s there for kids to see? Careful not to go blind."

Fearing that their eyes would get gouged out, the group of children screamed in terror and ran desperately towards the mounds of earth.

"Why are you being so fierce with a group of kids?" Gu Nuan reproached him.

"Can I let people watch when I’m being intimate with my wife?" Mr. Yebai justified naturally.

If they really had children in the future, Gu Nuan thought of this and unconsciously felt a headache coming on.

Back to the matter at hand, Gu Nuan asked him, "What were you thinking? Why did you drive all the way here?"

"Because you heard about this place from someone, didn’t you? I just took you for a drive so you wouldn’t accuse me of being irresponsible again," he said seriously, as if it was all her fault.

With that, Gu Nuan couldn’t help but turn her head away from him.

His eyes immediately widened, and his stiff mouth corners quickly softened as he said, "Yes, yes, I lied. It just so happens that I knew about this place you mentioned, and I feel that old man must know about it too. We must find out if it’s a trap set by that old man."

"If it is a trap set by him, what do you think we should do?"

"It doesn’t matter. Because my wife is even more awesome," he said.

Gu Nuan gave him a hard push on his chest.

This man, even at this time, was still joking. Did he think she was playing around? Besides, Zhong Qiaohui and her senior brother also needed an explanation.
