It turned out that fate had been so cruel to me just so that I could meet you, who doted on me and loved me so much, one day. -Qiao Mu
~Preface~
Ten years ago, an eight-year-old little girl was walking behind an eighteen-year-old teenage boy. She vowed loudly, “I don’t know what love is, but I love you! I’ll definitely marry you when I grow up!”
Many years later, they met each other again. But the once obedient young woman smiled cunningly like a little fox and said, “Uncle, you want me to marry you? Are you trying to get a sugar baby?”
…..
At night, the stars were bright.
A luxurious cruise ship glided on the water. Brightly lit, it was a splendid sight.
The decor inside the cabin was resplendent, and the large space was divided into a few sections. One of the sections consisted of many private lounges, and the design of the place was unique.
It looked like a maze.
Qiao Mu staggered back and forth on the long corridor. This was her second time walking around this part of the cruise ship.
She looked at the wooden doors on both sides of the corridor. There was no way that she could tell which private lounge she had come from, as all the doors looked similar.
It was her eighteenth birthday, and she was having a celebration with a few friends. They had made her drink quite a lot. It made no sense. She merely went to the bathroom. How did she even get lost?
Qiao Mu was feeling dizzier and dizzier. She could not just keep going around in circles like this. She decided to head back to the bathroom and wait for her friends outside the door. They were bound to realize that she was missing and come looking for her.
However, the moment she turned, she bumped into someone’s chest
This made Qiao Mu even dizzier. She subconsciously reached out and grabbed the other party’s shirt to prevent herself from falling down.
“Let go!” A loud and clear voice rang out.
She could smell mint. She raised her head and was met with a pair of hawk-like eyes.
Those eyes were as black as charcoal, and there was a hint of coldness in them. His gaze was extremely profound, like the boundless night sky.
Qiao Mu subconsciously shifted her gaze away from that person’s eyes, and only then did she notice how breathtakingly handsome he was.
His facial features were so prominent that his face looked like a sculpture. His eyebrows were thick, and his nose bridge was tall and straight. His lips were thin and seductive. His face was so exquisite that it was basically perfect. And he was emanating such a cold and arrogant aura that he looked like a born noble.
He was… unbelievably handsome!
However, that face kept swaying in her field of vision.
Qiao Mu furrowed her beautiful eyebrows and wrapped her arms around the man’s neck. She put all her weight on his chest and muttered, “Stop shaking. I’m feeling dizzy.”
The man’s gaze fell upon Qiao Mu’s face. There was a flush on her cheeks, and she looked extremely innocent.
The man narrowed his dark orbs a little, and there was a barely noticeable glint in his eyes.
He flashed a smile, and this gave his cold face a devilishly charming vibe. His lips were thin and sexy, and his voice was husky and magnetic. He asked playfully, “Are you trying to seduce me?”
Qiao Mu was shocked. Before she could react to what was going on, his voice rang out beside her ears again. “I am not interested in underage girls.”
“Underage?’
Qiao Mu puffed her cheeks in annoyance and said, “It’s my eighteenth birthday today!”
“So?”
His gaze was full of disdain, and because of this, Qiao Mu wanted to put up a fight. She narrowed her eyes and smiled, hooking her long and slim leg around his waist with a seductive expression. “Which means that I am not underage, and that I have the right to seduce you!”
The man narrowed his dark orbs. There was something wild about his appearance, and he looked devilishly charming.
Qiao Mu raised her chin and flashed a mischievous smile.
She was feeling pleased with herself when the man grabbed her thigh.
This shocked her, and she froze.
