Weiai displayed her unyielding character towards Shen Shaobai’s unreasonable requests. She was firm in her refusal.
However, she still had chills upon thinking about how she was still trapped in the same room as the snakes and the rats. It was clear she had to make a deal with Shen Shaobai if she wanted to get out of the current situation.
Yet, at that point in time, it was silent outside the room.
Has he… left?
Thinking this, Weiai bent her body over while leaning on the door. She placed her ear on the door in an attempt to get a hold of what was happening outside.
“Clan—”
“Ahhhhh—”
All of a sudden, the door opened.
Weiai screamed as she was taken aback. She lost her balance and fell forward, unexpectedly falling right onto Shen Shaobai’s body and catching a whiff of his unfamiliar scent.
“I… oh…”
Weiai panicked for a moment. Unfortunately, just as she was about to stand up, her lips unexpectedly bumped into something warm, stopping her from speaking.
Her body froze when she realized that the warm sensation was coming from Shen Shaobai’s lips.
Kiss! Her kiss… was taken away by this man again!
Upon this realization, without thinking, she raised her hand forward and waved it.
“Slap—”
A clear slap was heard, the sound echoing in the room.
The room sank into absolute silence at that moment.
The bodyguards standing behind Shen Shaobai trembled—their eyes, though shielded by their sunglasses, gave away the shock and fear they felt. They were shocked at how brazen Weiai was to hit the young master. They also feared for themselves as the young master was hurt right under their noses!
This was simply… asking for their lives!
At that moment, they prayed hard for the young master not to direct his anger at them!
“Xia Weiai, how can you hurt the Young Master?!”
Shi Mei first looked at Shen Shaobai, then directed an angry look at Weiai.
The pity she felt for the girl previously turned into hatred and disgust in the blink of an eye. Since she laid a hand on the young master, she could not be kept on the island!
“You… you cannot blame me for this… it was him… who first took advantage of me…”
The numbing pain that she felt on her palm made Weiai realize how hard her slap was.
She looked up and saw red marks developing on Shen Shaobai’s face. She stepped backward subconsciously as she started to feel fear.
“Young Master…”
Shi Mei was about to request for Xia Weiai to be evicted from the island.
However, Shen Shaobai raised his hand to stop her from speaking.
He wheeled himself slowly forward towards Weiai. Upon seeing his, Weiai could only move backward until she was forced into a corner with her back leaning against the cold wall behind her.
At that moment, the bodyguards rushed into the room to pick up all the snakes and rats from the ground, keeping them in the box—these animals were used to scare Xia Weiai, but they could not affect the young master!
His wheelchair stopped in front of her.
“Who was the one leaning on the door just now?”
Shen Shaobai asked in an unexpectedly calm tone as if nothing had happened previously.
Weiai was stunned upon hearing this question.
Very quickly, she regained her composure and stuttered. “It was… it was me…”
“Who was the one that jumped into my embrace when the door opened?”
Shen Shaobai placed his hands gracefully on his knees, revealing his natural aristocratic manners.
“It was… it was me…”
Even though she did not want to answer his questions, Weiai had to admit that he was speaking the truth. When the door opened just now, it was indeed her that fell into his arms. It was not his fault!
However, how was this “jumping into his embrace”? She would never do that!
“Then, whose lips again… was it that touched mine?”
