LIGHTNOVELWORLD Chapter 48
Crash…, water splashes.
The man stretched out his hand and pulled back the young man who was about to slip away.
The cold, thin lips once again covered the young man’s bright red lips. This time, the dominance fell on the man’s side.
He reached out to hold the back of the young man’s head and began to kiss forcefully and dominantly.
“Ugh…, it hurts!” Bai Junluo exclaimed, feeling the burning pain from the corner of his mouth. His sapphire eyes filled with mist, and tears fell from the corners of his eyes.
This man kissed him with no regard.
Upon hearing the boy’s cry, Bo Sijue immediately stopped.
He looked at the young man’s slightly red eyes and the torn corners of his mouth, stunned.
The young man was truly delicate. A prolonged kiss could cause the skin on his lips to break.
Bai Junluo touched his slightly sore lips and, with tears in his eyes, glared angrily at the man in front of him.
“Bo Sijue, you’re so mean. I don’t like you anymore.”
Bo Sijue’s face darkened. He abruptly lifted the boy out of the swimming pool, pulled him into his arms, and spoke in a cold tone: “Bai Junluo, since you said you like me, you must like me forever. Otherwise, I might just throw you to the sharks, you know?”
Bai Junluo blinked his watery sapphire eyes, feeling regretful in his heart.
If only he had known earlier, he wouldn’t have fallen for this man.
“Stop crying. I’ll take you to put some ice.”
The man spoke in an unusually gentle voice, picked up the pearls that had fallen, placed them in his suit pocket, and carried the boy into the castle.
Bai Junluo sobbed continuously.
Bo Sijue wondered if he could make a fortune from the pearls shed by the little mermaid, he might be the richest man in the world.
“It hurts!”
Bai Junluo sat on the sofa, touching his swollen and reddened lips, wearing an angry expression.
Old Wang brought an ice pack, looking puzzled.
“Young Master Bai, why is your mouth so swollen and the skin broken?”
“I, I don’t know, you ask him.”
Bai Junluo’s cheeks were slightly red, and he angrily pushed the man next to him, shifting the blame to him.
In response, Bo Sijue smiled calmly and uttered a shocking statement.
“He injured himself.”
“What nonsense are you talking about?” Bai Junluo’s face turned even redder, and he angrily punched the man hard in the chest.
To his surprise, not only did he fail to hurt the man, but he also hurt his own hand in the process.
“Hiss…”
Clutching his injured hand, Bai Junluo’s eyes filled with tears, and he sobbed softly.
This man only knew how to tease him!
Bo Sijue sighed helplessly, took the ice pack from Old Wang’s hand, and gently applied it to the young man’s mouth while soothing him.
“Bai Junluo, you should be more careful. You might end up hurting yourself.”
There was a hint of tenderness in the man’s otherwise cold voice.
“Hmph!”
Bai Junluo turned his head stubbornly, wearing a defiant expression.
He didn’t want to listen to this man!
After attending to everything, Bo Sijue tousled the young man’s soft hair and spoke softly, “Stay here for a while. I have some official matters to attend to in the study. We’ll have dinner together later.”
With that, he turned and headed toward the study on the second floor.
Bai Junluo watched the man’s retreating figure, then jumped off the sofa and headed toward the mansion gate.
Hmph! This man might not want him to wander around, but he was going to do it anyway.
He wouldn’t listen.
Seeing this, Old Wang quickly inquired, “Young Master Bai, where are you going?”
“I’m just going to the swimming pool to have some fun in the water. Grandpa, don’t worry.”
Bai Junluo had a brilliant smile on his carved face, with sincere look that no one could bear to doubt him.
The mansion steward Lao Wang saw his well-behaved appearance and nodded without any doubt.
“Then Young Master Bai, remember to come back early to have dinner with Mr. Bo, otherwise he would have to send people to find you.”
“He didn’t care about me!”
Bai Junluo frowned, and there was a hint of anger in his tone of voice.
Old Wang, who had lived for most of his life and had rich experience, knew at a glance that the boy was causing trouble.
“Young Master Bai, Mr. Bo was very worried about you after you ran away from home last time. He even sent many people to look for you!”
“Really? Did he really care about me?”
Bai Junluo lowered his eyes, with a hint of suspicion in his gaze.
That man always very mean to him every day. Did he really care about him?
“Of course, he does. I’ll leave first.”
Old Wang had a kind face, turned around, and disappeared from his sight without saying anything more.
.
The backyard of Tianzhi Mansion was a dense jungle. Bai Junluo walked in it boredly, thinking about what Old Wang just said.
Would that man really be worried about him?
“He should be worried.”
Bai Junluo recalled the scene when the man had found him last time, stopped unconsciously, and nodded.
But just as he was about to go back, a loud roar reached his ears from not far away.
What was this sound?
Bai Junluo walked in the direction of the sound, and what he saw was a huge “snowball”.
“Wow… it was a big live tiger.”
Bai Junluo’s sapphire eyes lit up after a moment, and he rushed toward the “snowball” with his legs.
In the past, he had only seen this kind of creature in books from the mermaid clan’s library. Such a cute creature, and now he finally encountered a real one.
“Big tiger, here I come!”
Boom…
The big white tiger, which was working hard to poo, was unprepared when someone suddenly hugged its butt from behind. It was so frightened that it immediately jumped up from the ground.
