"Y-you have a g-gun…." Su Yanruo stammered pushing Ji Chenglang away from her. Turning around, she was about to run away from him in fear but Ji Chenglang grasped her hand and pulled her back.
Entrapping her in between his arms and the wall, he explained, "You are getting me wrong. Don't be afraid of me."
"Get away from me!" Su Yanruo yelled. Placing her hand on his chest, she tried to push him away, but she failed. Big droplet of tears started falling from her eyes and her entire body started shaking from fear. It looked like she was going to faint anytime soon.
"Calm down!" Ji Chenglang tried to console her. Outstretching his hands, he tried to wipe away her tears but was ruthlessly pushed away by her.
"You are a murderer. You are going to kill my sister." she snarled at him fearfully.
"Get away from me," she yelled.
Ji Chenglang frowned. "Calm down," he said trying to touch her again.
"Don't touch me," Su Yanruo screamed and tried to run away. This time, Ji Chenglang grabbed her by her waist. "It was a fake gun. Calm down. It was a fake gun," he explained hastily. He didn't want the beauty to run away from his arms once again.
Su Yanruo stopped struggling in his arms. Tilting her head, she looked at him, "Fake gun?"
Ji Chenglang nodded solemnly. "It was a fake gun," he lied. "To protect you from your sister, I had to lie. I am so sorry," he apologized. "Your sister will be alright."
Hearing the fake sincerity in his voice, Su Yanruo was merely stunned. No wonder, innocent girl fall for his lies! He was just so good at hiding his true nature.
"Thank you for saving me," she smiled.
Ji Chenglang nodded. "Your dress is ruined. Come with me," he said taking her hand, "I'll change your dress for you."
"W-what?"
"Just kidding," Ji Chenglang chuckled. "I get a new dress for you," he said.
"Thank you," Su Yanruo smiled taking his hand and walked along with him towards his room. Turning around a little, she glanced at the corner where she had seen Mr. First Kiss Stealer but he was long gone.
Shrugging her shoulder, Su Yanruo walked with Ji Chenglang and entered his room. Glancing at the extravagant stylish room, she grimaced in disgust.
"Do you like my room?" he asked.
Su Yanruo nodded with a gracious smile. "It's nice," she lied.
"I knew you would like it," he smiled with confidence. Walking towards his wardrobe, he took a beautiful white gown that would match his dress perfectly and gave it to her.
"You can go and change," he said pointing towards the washroom. He couldn't wait to see her in that beautiful white dress. All kinds of dirty thoughts started appearing in his mind as he imagined her in that dress and beneath him in his bed. Containing his excitement, he tried to look as natural as possible. He didn't want to scare this beauty as of yet.
"Thank you," Su Yanruo smiled taking the dress in her hand but she didn't walk to the washroom to change into it.
Ji Chenglang frowned. "Is there a problem?" he frantically asked.
Su Yanruo nodded.
"You don't like the dress?" he asked nervously.
"No," Su Yanruo denied. "It is a gorgeous dress," she said.
"Then?"
"Ummm… I still don't know your name," she said softly.
Immediately, Ji Chenglang's heart melted at her voice. It was so soft and sweet that he couldn't wait to get his hand all over her and bully her and make her scream his name in that soft, sweet voice. He wondered what her reaction would be after knowing he is the owner of this boat and today is his birthday party.
Would she be surprised?
Would she stick to him after knowing about his status?
Or would she be scared?
He wanted to know. With a big smile on his face, he shook her hand. "I am Ji Chenglang and you are on my ship," he informed.
Su Yanruo let out a shocked expression. "Y-you are that Ji Chenglang?" she asked.
Ji Chenglang nodded with a smug smile. He was very pleased to see her reaction.
"Is this your boat?" she asked, her big innocent eyes looking at him with an awed look.
"Yes," he smirked just waiting for her to run into his arms happily.
"Oh no!!! You are that old man," she said terribly shocking him.
Ji Chenglang: "...…" Old man?
"What?"
"I am sorry. I mean the old man that my sister was going to sell me to is you," she explained. "Today is your birthday, isn't it?" she frantically asked.
Ji Chenglang nodded.
"Then I am your gift," she said but then thinking about something, she blushed deeply. "I mean I was…. your gift."
"Oh!"
"My sister deceived me into attending this party. She lied to me that it was just a ordinary party. When I came here, she forced me into wearing some weird dress," Su Yanruo narrated as few tears started falling from her eyes.
Ji Chenglang immediately walked up to her and started wiping her tears away. This time she let him touch her because now her plan was about to set into motion.
Wrapping his arms around her, he consoled her. "It's okay. Everything is fine now. I am with you. I won't let anybody harm you."
Su Yanruo sniffled in his arms, "You know, she said that today she was going to send me to some…. some bald, big belly old man as his gift."
Ji Chenglang who is described as a bald, big belly man: "...…"
"But thankfully you came in the right time to save me," she smiled.
Ji Chenglang smiled sheepishly, "I wouldn't mind you as my gift, though."
"W-what?" Su Yanruo asked shyly.
Ji Chenglang knew that his time had come. This was his moment to win over this beauty. He should strike while the iron is hot. Making use of this excellent opportunity, he walked closer to Su Yanruo. Placing his arms around her, he gazed into her eyes deeply.
Su Yanruo blushed, shying away from him but he made her look at him. With a sincere meaningful smile on his face, he caressed her cheeks. "You are the most beautiful gift that I have ever received in my life," he said softly.
