Stubborn Love of a Roguish Scion - Chapter 307
Chapter 307: He Fancies Me
“What is it? Are you happy to know that another woman has touched your man? Are you going to stop me from punishing her?”
“But why didn’t I see it?”
“…”
“Anyway, this is too hot.” As she spoke, she struggled to remove the coat.
Her man absolutely refused to let her go. “We are still far away from our room. You better keep the coat on.”
“But look at me, I’m perspiring!” She wiped off the copious droplets on her forehead.
“Perspiring is good!”
“It’s really hot!”
“Just bear with it.”
“You!”
“Bear with it a little longer!” He did not give her a chance to open her mouth.
…
“Let me go! Let me go!” Lin Ruo struggled and screamed at the top of her voice.
“Young Master Mo has ordered us not to let you go until your head is fully submerged in the water.”
“That’s right!”
The girl was repeatedly dunked into the pool. The moment she lifted her head out of the water, they would push her head down. She was painfully out of breath.
“I’ll tell boss…” Before she could complete her sentence, her head was pushed into the water again.
“It’s an order from Young Master Mo. Our boss can’t do anything about it.”
“That’s right!”
“What are you guys doing to her?” Boss Tang marched over to them with a furious look on his face.
“B-Boss…” The three of them immediately released their grip on the poor girl, who was half-submerged in the water.
“What are all of you doing here?”
Lin Ruo took in a few quick, deep breaths in succession before swimming over to the side of the pool. “Boss, Young Master Mo took a fancy to me, so these three tried to kill me.”
“What? Boss, that’s not true! It was Young Master Mo who wanted us to put her head in the water. This was his order! You can ask him!”
“That’s right, boss! If he hadn’t ordered us, we wouldn’t have bothered!”
Boss Tang remembered the way the young master had marched off earlier with an angry look and instructed Lin Ruo. “You! Let me have a good look at your face.”
The poor girl hardly had any energy left after pulling herself out of the pool. After resting for a short while, she finally lifted her head to look at her employer. “Boss, what I said earlier was true! Young Master Mo took a fancy to me. He even called me Baby Ruo. All of them can attest to that.”
“Chey!” The rest had a look of disdain on their faces.
“Young Master Mo did not allow any of us to approach him. We could only serve him water. The closest we could get to him was when we served him the fruit platter. He actually ate the fruit that I fed him!”
The man was astounded to learn that. “Is that the truth?”
The three of them obviously did not want to admit that. “Young Master Mo had trouble moving his hands for a short while. In any case, if he really had taken a fancy to her, he wouldn’t have thrown her into the water.”
“Yes, that’s right, boss! It was pure coincidence that he ate the fruit she fed him. At the time, he was hugging a woman beside him while watching a TV program. He wasn’t paying attention, and she took advantage of that!”
“I believe any one of us could have fed him without a problem because he was distracted.”
One after another, the three girls started to defend themselves.
The man glanced over at the lone girl and asked, “What’s your name?”
“My name is Lin Ruo. Earlier, Young Master Mo addressed me as Baby Ruo.”
“Is that true?” Their boss turned to the other three girls and asked them with a stern look.
“I think Young Master Mo was talking to the woman in his arms.”
“Yes, that’s it! Who knows, that woman may have shared the same name as Lin Ruo. Her name might contain the word ‘Ruo’ as well!”
“The three of you better stop it right now.” Lin Ruo could not stand their sarcasm any longer and got up from the floor.
As she caressed and soothed her wet hair, she added, “Don’t you think there were just too many coincidences involved in this encounter? I reckon all of you are spouting malicious words because you’re jealous!”
Boss Tang stopped their argument once and for all with a stern order. “Come over here,” he ordered Lin Ruo.
“Yes, boss!” Her face brightened up at his words.
“Boss…” The others were naturally displeased.
Their employer ignored their protest and told her to come with him. If Young Master Mo is really interested in this girl, perhaps I can exchange her for his woman…
