Chapter 1710: He Followed Her
Long Ming walked toward the young man very quickly. He already had the aura of a king on him, so when he suddenly patted the young man’s shoulder, even Xiao Ying jumped in shock.
She hurriedly ran behind Long Ming and grabbed his strong arm. “Long Ming, he didn’t do anything wrong. Don’t take it to heart.”
Long Ming turned back to look at Xiao Ying, pursing his lips. “Don’t worry, I’m not hitting him.”
Xiao Ying sighed in relief and let go of Long Ming’s arm.
Faced with Long Ming’s cold and domineering aura, the young man said with slight fear, “Sir, I don’t mean anything else. Don’t misunderstand. I just think that your wife’s body is light and she’s suitable to be my flying companion. If you don’t agree, I’ll find someone else…”
Realizing that his actions had frightened the young man, Long Ming retracted his hand that was on the young man’s shoulder and said with a tensed expression, “You don’t have to look for someone else.”
The young man was stunned before he said excitedly, “Sir, are you agreeing to let your wife be my female companion?”
Long Ming hummed.
Xiao Ying, who was standing by the side, froze. Long Ming had actually agreed to the young man’s request. This was not his style!
Xiao Ying was about to say something when she heard Long Ming say coldly, “But the person flying with her at sea is not you, but me.”
The young man and Xiao Ying were both stunned.
Their first reaction was confusion. Did Long Ming know how to fly?
The young man looked at Long Ming. At such a close distance, he found that the muscles on his body were thin and strong. They were uniform and contained infinite strength.
“Y-You know how to fly at sea?”
Long Ming smirked. “I can do anything. What’s so difficult about flying at sea?”
It was such an arrogant tone.
The young man did not want to agree to Long Ming’s request, but because of Long Ming’s deep gaze, he submitted to Long Ming subconsciously.
“Then you have to put on your equipment.”
Long Ming hummed coldly.
Seeing Long Ming following the young man to change his equipment, Xiao Ying froze for a few seconds.
These two people did not ask for her opinion at all!
After a while, Long Ming changed and came out. The young man asked him to put on the life jacket but he did not.
The young man took a life jacket for Xiao Ying and Long Ming rejected him as well. “She doesn’t need these when she’s with me.”
The young man was speechless.
The compet.i.tion was about to start. Seeing that Long Ming was so confident, Xiao Ying had no choice but to cooperate with him. She called Long Mei and asked her to help look after Wan Bao.
Xiao Ying took off her sunscreen and followed Long Ming into the sea.
A wave hit Xiao Ying and her hair was completely wet. A strand of hair stuck to her fair and delicate face, making her look extremely beautiful.
Long Ming stared at Xiao Ying, his long fingers brus.h.i.+ng away that strand of hair as he kissed her ear. “Are you afraid?”
Xiao Ying had never flown over water before, nor had she seen Long Ming do so. To be honest, she was a little nervous.
But looking into his deep eyes, she felt that there was nothing to be afraid of.
Being by his side was a sense of security in itself.
“I trust you.”
A smile appeared in Long Ming’s deep eyes. “I’ll take you flying.”
With a whistle, the compet.i.tion began.
Before Xiao Ying could prepare herself, her body was suddenly lifted into the air. She cried out in surprise as she was hugged by a pair of strong arms.
Long Ming held her steadily as the flying device under his feet started to lift them into the air.
As she was carried by him and lifted into the air, Xiao Ying’s heart tightened. At this moment, the flying device was still lifting them even higher into the air. They gradually left the water and flew higher and higher. Xiao Ying’s heart was in her throat.
Long Ming looked at the woman in his arms, whose face was tensed. Her long eyelashes were trembling nonstop. He lowered his head and leaned close to her ear, saying in a low and magnetic voice, “Don’t be afraid. Hug me.”
He said not to be afraid and to hug him.
Xiao Ying’s heart that was in her throat slowly returned to its original position.
From the corner of her eye, she glanced at the other teams and they all performed difficult maneuvers. She wrapped her arms around Long Ming’s neck and looked at him with a clear and firm gaze. “Do you have anything more exciting?”
“Not afraid anymore?”
“What haven’t I experienced before? Come on, the more exciting it is, the better!”
He did not correct her for speaking so roughly and a smile appeared on his lips. He suddenly put her down, turned around, and started to spin in the air with her in his arms.
Countless eyes on the beach were attracted by the compet.i.tion.
Even Wan Bao, who was focused on playing with the sand, looked over at Long Ming and Xiao Ying.
“Wow, Cool Uncle and Mommy are amazing!”
The young man stood beside Wan Bao. At first, he had not thought highly of Long Ming and had thought that he was simply boasting. However, when he saw that he was so good at flying the device and was even able to carry his wife and do all kinds of beautiful actions, his eyes almost popped out.
Even the team with the highest degree of cooperation in their team was not as good as them when it came to these performances, let alone as eye-catching.
When it was over, the man held the woman’s waist tightly and the two of them faced the beach. Under the woman’s urging, they looked in Wan Bao’s direction and made a heart gesture.
The beach erupted into applause.
Even when they arrived back at the beach, Xiao Ying was still smiling.
It had been so thrilling and fun just now!
Seeing Xiao Ying’s smile, Long Ming caressed her wet head. “Are you happy?”
Xiao Ying nodded. “I haven’t been so happy in a long time.”
“Go back and shower now that you’ve had your fun.”
“Huh?”
“Long Mei is here with Wan Bao. Come back with me to take a bath.”
Xiao Ying glanced at the serious man and seemed to understand his intentions. Her ears turned slightly red.
…
In the evening.
Xiao Ying was woken up by the man’s deep and magnetic voice. “Get up and eat something before you sleep, alright?”
Xiao Ying stared at the well-dressed man sitting by the bed and glared at him angrily. “Long Ming, I don’t want to talk to you anymore.”
Long Ming carried her up from the bed, his well-defined fingers caressing her flushed face. “Alright, you don’t have to. But you don’t have to vent your anger on your stomach. You’ll feel uncomfortable if you don’t eat.”
Xiao Ying sat up on the bed. “Go out first.”
Xiao Ying was wearing a spaghetti strap nightgown. Her lines from her neck to her shoulders were beautiful and exquisite. He pressed down on her shoulders and approached her.
Xiao Ying clenched her fists and pressed them against his chest. “Stop it.”
Long Ming looked at Xiao Ying deeply. Thinking that she was indeed tired, he did not make things difficult for her anymore. He got up and left the bedroom.
…
The moment Long Ming walked out of the room, his phone vibrated.
It was a call from the Chief Secretary.
When Long Ming left for his vacation, he had told them not to disturb him unless it was something important.
Long Ming walked into the study and answered the call.
“Your Majesty, if it wasn’t because this affects you, I wouldn’t have called. Some foreign media have exposed intimate photos of you and Miss Ying on your vacation.”
