Chapter 63 Battleship
After he opened the car door, her hand was released. Annabelle stroke her hand dissatisfiedly and
complained, “Where are we going?”
“To find spark!”
Spark?
Then why do you have that cheeky look on your face when you say that?
“It’s ok, I can do it myself!” She protested and wanted to get out.
Suddenly, Mu drew his face close and barked at her, “Sit!”
And she immediately stopped struggling and moved her hips in.
Darn it! Am I a puppy or what!
He said sit and she sat obediently…
Mu turned his head towards her and jeered, “Hey, don’t think too much!”
“Wh…What?!”
“Don’t act stupid.”
“……”
“I’ve told you before, not only are you carrying your own dreams and future, but the reputation of Yun
Rui also lay heavily on your shoulder. That’s why we need to take things more seriously!” Mu
enunciated weightily.
Take things seriously? How can I do that when I’m with a joke like you?
Annabelle kept her remark to herself. Almost said it for the sake of not wasting a good come-back but
she knew Mu would just get back at her.
She nodded dutifully as expected of a good employee.
Mu started the engine and suddenly recalled something, he reached to his pocket, drew out a tube of
cream and shoved it to her.
Annabelle looked down, it was an arnica cream for bruise, sealed.
“This is…”
“Annabelle, I know some artists have weird habits. But coming to office in such stylish fashion…a
fingerprint on your face isn’t something very appropriate in Yun Rui. So even if you don’t mind your own
name, watch out for Yun Rui’s reputation ok?”
……
Annabelle was rendered speechless. Suddenly her eyes widened and she turned to him, “So, YOU
bought this for me?” RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
“Nope, Batman!”
“……”
Annabelle struggled to hold her laughter and her face turned funny red like a chocked man, she waved
the tube of cream in her hands and bubbled, “Mr. Mu, this is part of employee benefit right?”
Mu’s eyebrow knitted in annoyance, “If not?!”
“Just asking~ Best not cause any further misunderstanding with your girlfriend, otherwise I’d have a
matching make-up tomorrow!”
Mu’s eyes widened and he almost yanked his head towards Annabelle, “She did it that to you?!”
“Of course!”
“Why?”
“Mr. Mu, don’t you think that’s a stupid question?”
“…Because of me?”
“Who could’ve guessed that, Sherlock!”
“…And you just let her do that?” Mu rested back on his chair and looked at Annabelle, puzzled.
“Are you suggesting I should exchange blows with her?”
“Isn’t that your personality?”
The two felt that chit-chatting with each other was a little, tiny bit…entertaining, just like battleship!
She grinned widely showing her teeth and said, “Alright, next time I’ll make sure she loses a tooth!”
Looking at her crafty expression, Mu had a feeling that Yoi’s going to get it good next time.
He said no more and drove off.
Annabelle too, kept her lips sealed. Since even Mu said so, she would most definitely show her some
colours should there be a next time!
Deep down, Annabelle felt a pity for Yoi.
She concluded that being Mu’s lover would be a depressing experience. If Yoi had heard what he said,
she would be devastated! What a heartless man!
Seeing as how Annabelle was lost in thought again, Mu alerted her, “What are you thinking again!”
Annabelle was a little taken aback and she looked back at Mu with shocking eyes.
Can he read minds?
Annabelle couldn’t help but wondered, every time when she thought badly behind his back he would
ask her like this!
She pretended to laughed it off meekly, “Nothing~”
“Oh right, where are we going?”
Mu squinted his eyes sceptically at her, then curled up his lips and mumbled mysteriously, “Soon you
will know.”
Since Mu was being secretive, Annabelle also didn’t bother to ask further, she was always good in
putting out curiosity.
Approximately 40 minutes later, the car stopped by the roadside.
“This is it?” Annabelle asked.
Mu nodded and slid down their windows.
It was a rural and poverty-stricken place. However, there seemed to be no pollution and minimal carbon
footprints.
Annabelle drew a greedy breath, the air was so pleasant and refreshing, “Mm…?”
“Inspirations come from stories and stories come from realities; we should tread closer to life if we want
to spark some inspiration!” He explained.
Annabelle was impressed that he could come up with a quote like this and even more impressed that
he even knew a place like this.
She fell in love with the place at first sight and they got out the car.
They were at a small, busy street. There were shops and street vendors stuffing the sides and the
crowd were walking in herd like sheep. The setting sun was painting a gold hue on this peaceful and
lively street.
Mu smiled gently at Annabelle, “Do you want to go in?”
“Of course!”
And they walked side by side closely into the hustle and bustle.
One wouldn’t think that they were searching for an inspiration, but more of going out on a date!
Annabelle was genuinely joyous. The sight of the two attracted attentions, anyone could tell that they
were well heeled and came from another side of the world.
“I’m surprised you knew a place like this!”
Mu harrumphed light heartedly, “Well, not everyone was born with a silver
spoon…” lightnoveldaily.com.
