Fake Marriage To The Richest Tycoon-Chapter 245 - 244: If you keep talking, I’ll throw you out to the sharks
Chapter 245: Chapter 244: If you keep talking, I’ll throw you out to the sharks
SPLOSH!!!
The black sportscar dived headfirst into the water. Water leaped everywhere, covering the car from top to bottom.
All Qiao Nian saw was blue, and black. She gasped for breath. But, wait a minute.... She didn’t had to try hard at all!
There seemed to be oxygen in the car! Freak air hit her lungs. And the water didn’t enter the car at all. Astonished, Qiao Nian looked around, her feet, her hands, everything! She turned to look at Shentu Chu with a puzzled expression.
Shentu Chu breathed out slowly, his fingers interlacing with hers. Unconsciously, he had grabbed hold of her hands. And she had done the same, even though they were separated by seats.
Then Shentu Chu heard the mechanical whirring of something. He peered out the window, his heart still pumping like mad in his chest. He saw the tires moved in and was replaced by four propulsion nozzles.
Two fins popped out of the sides, the dashboard flipped over to reveal one that looked like a submarine.
"Holy shit. Qiao Minde, this is crazy! Your car is awesome!" Shentu Chu excitedly yelled. The sportscar had changed into a submarine!
"Why can’t you remember what I said?" Qiao Minde said, annoyed.
So that’s why Qiao Minde wasn’t afraid to drive the car into water. Why didn’t he said so earlier that his car could transform? That would have save him from screaming.
"Ah Nian, are you okay?" Qiao Minde glanced at her through the mirror. ƒгeewebnovёl.com
"I’m fine, brother," Qiao Nian replied. When she looked back, she saw that her mother’s people weren’t following her anymore.
Qiao Minde’s gaze flitted to their hands, interlocked in an intimate way. He gave Shentu Chu a deadly glare, then his eyes travelled down to their hands, as if warning them.
Shentu Chu quickly released his grip and put on an innocent face. Qiao Nian’s face became the colour of beetroots when she realized what their hands had been doing.
"Is there any food in here?" Shentu Chu glanced at Qiao Minde.
"No,"
"Drinks?"
"No,"
"Why isn’t there anything in here?"
"You complain too much," Qiao Minde said.
"Nian Nian, how are you? All fine? Hungry?" Shentu Chu turned around to look at Qiao Nian. Qiao Nian was indeed cute and lovely in that wedding dress.
Strangely, Shentu Chu had a vision. He saw himself with Qiao Nian on the beach in their wedding clothes, her slender feet kicked the water and sand, laughing and smiling.
"I’m fine. Shentu Chu, I’m not hungry. But maybe I will later on," Qiao Nian licked her lips.
Qiao Minde wanted to knock his own head on the dashboard. Why didn’t he equip the car with food and water? If his sister suffers from dehydration, it was going to be so his fault
"Qiao Minde, Third Madam Qiao’s people are gone. Shouldn’t we return to land? Nian Nian, is your brother always emotionless when it comes to other things other than business?"
"If you keep talking, I’ll throw you out to the sharks,"
Qiao Nian shrugged. "My brother’s like that,"
"Okay, okay. Qiao Minde, you’re no fun," Shentu Chu guessed that Qiao Minde was irritated because of his presence.
The submarine passed by coral reefs. Qiao Nian got up from her seat and plastered herself to the window, gazing out with wide eyes. She was like a little starfish sticking itself to the side of the aquarium.
Qiao Nian was having the time of her life. She had never seen the ocean before, not to mention underwater.
"So beautiful! Shentu Chu, look at that seahorse!" Qiao Nian was like a child, pointing here and there, gasping and chatting excitedly.
Shentu Chu came over to join her, introducing her to the sea creatures, telling her interesting facts and stories.
Qiao Minde slowed the car down. He glanced through the mirror, watching his sister’s face brightened. His fingers relaxed and a myriad of emotions flickered across his eyes.
Coming to think of it, Qiao Nian has never been to an aquaria. This time he didn’t scold Shentu Chu who unknowingly came near Qiao Nian. He only watched, watched, and watched, as if wanting to engrave this memory into his mind.
It was as if they were in a large aquarium, colourful fishes swimming by, beautiful coral reefs that glittered in the sunlight that pierced through the water, sword fishes fought and little fishes surrounded their car.
"Shentu Chu, is that a shark?" She trembled slightly when a medium sized grey shark approached them.
Shentu Chu laughed. "It is. But it’s not harmful to humans. Don’t worry. Besides, your brother’s car is so powerful. Surely that shark won’t be able to get us. Even if a shark were to come, your brother will protect you, I will protect you,"
Shentu Chu wanted to pat her head but he refrained from doing so because of Qiao Minde.
Qiao Minde put the car on auto drive and leaned back in his seat. He listened to them talking and chatting, closing his eyes.
If it wasn’t for revenge, he would have spent more time with Qiao Nian. He would have pamper and dote on her more. Sadly, these were things he couldn’t do.
When he heard Shentu Chu say that he, Qiao Minde, will protect Qiao Nian, he clenched his fists.
He couldn’t protect her.
Third Madam Qiao was counted as his stepmother. Yet he couldn’t protect Qiao Nian from her.
A few hours later, Qiao Nian was tired and feel asleep on the back seat. Shentu Chu took off his jacket and covered her. He had returned to the front seat beside Qiao Minde.
Shentu Chu glanced at Qiao Minde who had his eyes shut.
"You are not going to scold me for covering her with my jacket?" He knew he wasn’t asleep.
"She’s asleep. I don’t want to disturb her rest," Qiao Minde replied without opening his eyes.
"Qiao Minde..."
"What?"
"Nothing. I just want to say your name," Shentu Chu smiled.
