Chapter 128: Backing up from behind, always protecting
Jiang Mian pulled Cheng Ye to sit next to him, took out a wet wipe and carefully wiped away the lipstick marks of various colors left on Cheng Ye's face bit by bit.
Cheng Ye let her wipe it. The little girl's eyes were pure and clear, and her focused look attracted all of Cheng Ye's attention.
After the lipstick on her face was wiped clean, Jiang Mian showed a warm smile, "Where are we going to see the sea?"
Cheng Ye felt his skin was cool after being wiped, which was quite comfortable. "Hai Shi."
After they were ready, they set off for Hai City.
They came to a commercial street where there was everything for eating, drinking and having fun.
During the noon and afternoon, Cheng Ye took Jiang Mian to various shops in the commercial street, to eat, go shopping, watch movies, go to entertainment cities, and visit tourist attractions. Cheng Ye took Jiang Mian to almost all the representative places where one could play, eat, and see.
At seven o'clock in the evening, the beach gradually became lively.
Many people set up tents, and groups of people of different sizes gathered together to sing and dance, and some people also set up campfires and barbecues.
On the beach, many adults were playing with their children, and couples or friends were walking and chatting side by side.
Not far away, there are stalls set up by merchants and shops with lights on. You can hear soothing and pleasant music and the occasional cries of vendors.
Cheng Ye bought a lot of things on the way, including clothes for the two of them, couple watches, luxury and niche shoes, toys and figures, fruit snacks, etc.
Because there were too many things for the two of them to carry, Cheng Ye sent someone to send them back to the small clinic.
Grandma works in the small clinic and can help me receive these things.
Cheng Ye rode his bicycle, carrying Jiang Mian, who was in a good mood, along the commercial street.
Jiang Mian's face was rosy. She sat sideways in the back seat, her hands tightly wrapped around Cheng Ye's waist and abdomen, and her face rested lightly on Cheng Ye's back.
From her perspective, she could see the beach and coastline ahead.
The street lights on both sides of the road, the moonlight pouring down from the bright moon, the shadows of Cheng Ye, Jiang Mian, and the bicycle, overlapped and leaned against each other.
"The evening breeze is so comfortable." Jiang Mian's clear and pleasant voice broke the tranquility of the moment.
Cheng Ye lowered his eyes and saw the hands tightly wrapped around his waist. He raised the corners of his mouth and said, "Yeah, it's really comfortable."
Five minutes later, Cheng Ye stopped the bicycle steadily. Jiang Mian jumped off excitedly and stepped on Cheng Ye's shadow.
As soon as Cheng Ye left the car, he noticed that Jiang Mian was constantly stepping on his shadow. He couldn't help but smile and said nonchalantly, "Childish ghost."
Jiang Mian raised his eyes and glared at him unhappily.
Cheng Ye felt that she looked fierce when she glared at people, but had no killing power at all.
He leaned down and approached her with a smile.
Jiang Mian’s forehead almost reaches Cheng Ye’s chin.
Cheng Ye kissed Jiang Mian's warm forehead easily.
His lazy and tender voice fell into Jiang Mian's ears, "Mianbao, let's go."
Jiang Mian was stunned by Cheng Ye's kiss. She couldn't help but raise her hand to touch the place where Cheng Ye had kissed her. She said softly, "Hmm."
She extended her left hand.
Cheng Ye clasped the fingers of his right hand with her left hand.
The warmth brought by the sun during the day has not yet completely dissipated from the surface of the beach.
They changed into their Crocs, stepped on the soft sand, and breathed the fresh air. Everything was so beautiful.
The two walked hand in hand, and when they got tired they sat on the beach, enjoying the sea breeze and looking at the moon and stars above their heads.
Sometimes Cheng Ye would tease Jiang Mian on purpose, and Jiang Mian would chase him around and make him run away.
Laughter and joy filled the romantic night.
In the dark corner, a man glanced at the happy smile on Jiang Mian's face, and he couldn't help but clench his fists.
There was a haze of jealousy in his eyes, spreading rapidly in his mind like a raging sea.
"Si Jin, why did you bring me here?" Chu Xiyan asked in confusion.
But before she could wait for Si Jin's reply, she inadvertently saw Cheng Ye and Jiang Mian hugging and kissing on the beach.
Chu Xiyan pursed her lips, and for a moment, she couldn't tell whether she was envious, jealous, or angry about not being able to get the love she wanted.
She had never experienced such a gentle Cheng Ye before.
Cheng Ye's attitude towards her was nothing but cold.
“See? If you don’t work hard, Cheng Ye will run away with Jiang Mian.” Si Jin said coldly.
Chu Xiyan felt a strong sense of powerlessness in her heart. She withdrew her gaze uncomfortably, not wanting to look at the intimate scene between Cheng Ye and Jiang Mian anymore.
"I have thought about the benefits of a scientific marriage with Cheng Ye." Chu Xiyan was a little unconfident, "but I don't know if it will work."
Si Jin exuded a low pressure all over his body, and the veins on the back of his clenched hands were throbbing.
Cheng Fenghao is just an idiot. He is unable to take care of himself and can't help at all.
Chu Xiyan's side was also useless. Cheng Ye refused straightforwardly, without any hesitation, and did not give Chu Xiyan any chance at all.
How long will it take for them to succeed?
Si Jin's expression showed a hint of indifference, and he replied without interest, "You try it first."
When Chu Xiyan saw Si Jin turn around and leave, her expression froze for a moment.
An overwhelming sense of frustration surged to the top of her heart.
Cheng Ye never gave her even a glimmer of hope.
If there was a glimmer of hope, and he sent her a signal of hope, Chu Xiyan would still feel some hope.
But the reality is very skinny.
Cheng Ye was not willing to get involved in an emotional relationship with her at all.
"Xiyan, you are here too!" Cheng Fenghao's voice suddenly rang in Chu Xiyan's ears.
Chu Xiyan felt that the stars and the moon at night looked monotonous and boring, and she was not in the mood to talk.
She stood there, wanting to go over, but she had a premonition that Cheng Ye would not be nice to her. She could only leave in disgrace.
Cheng Fenghao didn't hear Chu Xiyan's reply, he suppressed his displeasure.
Fortunately, he saw Xiyan was not in school today, so he paid more attention and sent someone to find Xiyan's whereabouts!
Otherwise, he wouldn't know that Xiyan left school and didn't come to class in order to travel thousands of miles to Haishi to find Cheng Ye! !
Cheng Fenghao felt that his dignity as a man was being rubbed harshly by Cheng Ye, who pressed him to the ground.
"Xiyan, my brother is going too far! How can he ignore your personal feelings and come to Hai City for a date with Jiang Mian?"
"I was so angry about you that I almost rushed over to question my brother."
Cheng Fenghao promotes the relationship between Cheng Ye and Xi Yan against his conscience.
Anyway, the main purpose now is to increase Xiyan's favorability towards me.
When the time comes, find an opportunity to get rid of Cheng Ye, and Xiyan will naturally see her kindness and magnanimity.
Chu Xiyan was upset, "Feng Hao, why are you here?"
Cheng Fenghao maintained his cool and arrogant school bully persona, with his hands in his pockets and shaking his colorful hair.
He tried to make his voice have that kind of seductive bubbling sound, "Xiyan, I saw that you didn't come to school, and I was very worried about your safety, so I sent someone to check your whereabouts."
"I just want to care about you, so I care about where you go. Xiyan, don't misunderstand." Cheng Fenghao continued.
After this period of time, Cheng Fenghao gained rich experience and lessons.
Since Xiyan likes Cheng Ye’s arrogant and domineering type, then he will imitate him seriously!
He will definitely figure out the school bully’s persona thoroughly!
As time goes by, Xiyan will definitely be unable to stop wanting him!!
Cheng Fenghao would never give up on the marriage with Xiyan!
It is not his style to give up halfway!
Cheng Fenghao thought angrily, he had guessed long ago that Cheng Ye just wanted to take revenge on him!
First, he played hard to get with Xi Yan, then he made Jiang Mian, who had a crush on him, hate him, and even tricked Jiang Mian into becoming his girlfriend.
It’s simply sinister!
Cheng Ye was just jealous of me, so he tried to snatch away the two women who belonged to him!
Cheng Fenghao roared in anger, Cheng Ye, just wait for me! I will prove with my strength that you can't beat me! !
Thinking of this, Cheng Fenghao took out the liquid foundation and a round mirror while Chu Xiyan was staring blankly at Cheng Ye and Jiang Mian, turned around, and applied white liquid foundation on his face.
After applying it, his face turned visibly pale.
Cheng Fenghao put away the liquid foundation and the round mirror with satisfaction, then tears of sadness came out of his eyes and he turned around to look at Chu Xiyan.
Tears rolled down from the corners of his eyes. Cheng Fenghao looked like a man who had been heartbroken. His face was filled with loneliness and desolation as he forced a bitter smile.
Chu Xiyan turned around at this time and just noticed his forced, pale smile.
Cheng Fenghao knew that his acting skills had always been good.
Cheng Ye, so what if you are good at fighting! Aren’t you still not as good as me at acting?!
Fighting is just a low-level use of brute force! Unlike me, acting is a real IQ that relies on the brain! !
"Xiyan, I know you are embarrassed to go over there, and you are also afraid that your brother will be disrespectful to you again. Although I like you very much, I don't want to see you and your brother develop further."
"But I've figured it out. As long as you can be happy and be with the person you love, I'll be satisfied. I don't expect you to like me."
"Xi Yan, wait for me. I'll go over and talk to my brother now." As he said that, Cheng Fenghao was about to go over.
Chu Xiyan came back to her senses from her daze. She frowned and hurriedly grabbed Cheng Fenghao's arm, "Fenghao, what are you going to talk about?"
"Xi Yan, I'll be back soon. Don't worry, I just want to tell your brother that you miss him so much that you've reached the point of suffering from lovesickness." Cheng Fenghao said sympathetically.
Chu Xiyan was filled with mixed emotions when she heard this.
Cheng Fenghao obviously likes her, but because she likes Cheng Ye, he would rather promote her and Cheng Ye and sacrifice his own feelings.
How broad-minded does it take to achieve this? !
Chu Xiyan pursed her lips and gradually let go of the hand that was holding Cheng Fenghao's arm.
She didn't have the courage to go and face Cheng Ye.
Because she could sense that Cheng Ye would be cold and distant towards her.
If she went there now, she would only be asking for trouble and losing face for the Chu family.
If Feng Hao went there, it might be a good idea.
Chu Xiyan did not stop Cheng Fenghao.
Cheng Fenghao was free from restraint and walked towards Cheng Ye.
No matter so much!
As long as he can gain enough favorability, it doesn't matter if he gets beaten up by Cheng Ye a few times!
As the saying goes, you can’t catch a wolf without sacrificing a kid!
Xiyan must feel especially sorry for herself when she sees how much he has sacrificed for her, even willing to get hurt.
His short-term goal was also a success!!
Thinking of this, Cheng Fenghao had already come near Cheng Ye.
Chu Xiyan stood in a corner where they couldn't see her, looking nervously at the latest developments over there.
Cheng Ye was having a pleasant conversation with Jiang Mian when he noticed Cheng Fenghao suddenly appear out of the corner of his eye.
He frowned, looking impatient, "Are you a dog-skin plaster?!"
Cheng Fenghao said pitifully, "Brother, it doesn't matter if you don't like me, but Xiyan is innocent."
"Every time you didn't go to school, she would be very worried about you, wanting to know what you were doing and whether you were in any trouble. Now she's even lovesick for you."
Cheng Ye was speechless: "......?"
He lost his patience and raised his palms to slap Cheng Fenghao twice on both sides of his face! !
Cheng Fenghao's face was swollen and red from being slapped by Cheng Ye, and the next moment, he was kicked in the chest by Cheng Ye.
"boom--"
Cheng Fenghao's weak body flew dozens of meters away and then fell heavily on the beach.
The crowd nearby suddenly stopped playing and looked towards the source of the sound.
Cheng Ye shook his hands unhappily; his palms felt sticky.
He lowered his head and stared at his palm, which was filled with white foundation.
How many layers of foundation did this dog-skin plaster apply on his face? !
Jiang Mian handed over wet wipes and mineral water.
Cheng Ye rinsed it with mineral water and then wiped it again with a wet wipe.
When Jiang Mian looked at Cheng Fenghao, there was a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.
It was a rare date, and it should have been a quiet and beautiful time without being disturbed, but it was directly disrupted by Cheng Fenghao's arrival.
She tried her best to suppress her murderous intent. If she solved the problem herself, Cheng Ye would not be able to experience the pleasure of revenge.
At this stage, Cheng Ye also needs to grow, and Cheng Fenghao is the perfect catalyst.
And she is looking forward to how her future husband will deal with the Cheng family.
It’s interesting to think about it.
There was a flash of madness in Jiang Mian's eyes. No matter how Cheng Ye handled it, she would be there to back him up.
She would always protect him.
"Cheng Ye, does your hand hurt?" Jiang Mian grabbed Cheng Ye's hand and looked at his palm.
Cheng Ye shook his head, "It doesn't hurt."
Chu Xiyan, standing in the corner, vaguely saw Jiang Mian holding Cheng Ye's hand. The two were very intimate and ambiguous. Endless pain gradually emerged in her heart.
Until today, Chu Xiyan still couldn't believe it. In what way was she inferior to Jiang Mian? !
Why didn't Cheng Ye even want to give himself a slim hope? !
Chu Xiyan became more and more miserable. Although the scene was extremely painful for her, she still instinctively followed Cheng Ye's direction.
She pulled a bottle of water from her bag, raised her arm and poured it all over her head.
The water splashed down her hair and cheeks, allowing Chu Xiyan to remain conscious for the last moment.
But my heart was filled with bitterness, a bitterness that no amount of mineral water could erase.
The sourness first accumulated in the throat, then slowly spread to the chest, and soon spread to Chu Xiyan's limbs and bones! !
Chu Xiyan understood her current state, and her behavior and demeanor were already extremely embarrassing.
Cheng Ye had said before that he was so kind to her before leaving the Cheng family because of the Cheng family.
But Chu Xiyan didn't believe that Cheng Ye was only doing it for the Cheng family.
Cheng Ye definitely likes her!
Jiang Mian is not suitable for Cheng Ye at all.
Chu Xiyan clenched her hands. She had to prove to Cheng Ye that Jiang Mian was not as well-behaved and innocent as she appeared to be.
If Jiang Mian's true identity is revealed, will Cheng Ye still look at her a few more times?
