Priceless Baby: 101 Bedside Stories

She was not a sadist either. For these few days, she had been the one interrogating Ye Tingyun. Fancying him? Wasn’t that a joke? Ye Chu took her boots off, raised her head, and asked, “Will you kill him?”

“Depends on my mood.” Bruce suddenly got closer to Ye Chu and said meaningfully, “If you fancy him, I’ll kill him.”

Ye Chu’s lips curved, mockingly and playfully. “Bruce, if your illness isn’t cured yet, go eat your medicine. Don’t spout nonsense in front of me.”

Bruce clasped Ye Chu’s waist with a hand, lifted her up, and pinned her against the wall. His eyes became a deep green—sharp and hiding a sense of deviousness and dominance. “Ah Chu, I’m not joking.”

Ye Chu looked at him, her expression extremely cold. “Bruce, in my memory, I have never left the ocean. This does not mean that I will be tied together with you for my entire life. It is useless for you to be so stubborn in front of me. If you are capable, then make me fall in love with you. It’s one matter for me to willingly be someone’s exclusive prisoner. It’s another matter altogether to be forcefully made to be a prisoner.”

“Ah Chu…”

“Get lost!”

“Ah Chu, I…” Bruce’s imposing manner immediately weakened.

Ye Chu said, “Get lost!”

Bruce put her down slowly. Ye Chu snatched the white towel away and wiped her half-dried hair. Bruce touched his nose. “Sorry, I was too rash and went crazy. Don’t mind it. You should rest first.”

Bruce left the cabin. Ye Chu threw the towel away and yawned. She was deep asleep within five minutes. It could be said that she was simultaneously free from worries ad heartless. In her dream, she dreamed that she saw an ancient castle and a green patch of grass. There were birds and flowers everywhere, with a young girl’s laughter.

Who was she?

Where did she come from?

How old was she?

Did she have relatives?

For so many years, these questions had been circling around in her heart. However, there were no answers.

…

The boat reached land. It was an extremely beautiful coastal island. Although the infrastructure was not so perfect, the island possessed a beautiful white beach, a light blue coastal line, and dense, tall trees. The island had not been developed into a tourist island, and the majority of inhabitants were indigenous people. There were a few islands nearby, linking together to form a beautiful ocean area.

When Ye Tingyun woke up, the boat had already docked.

His wound was infected.

He should have known it. He had already been beaten up and had a lot of injuries on his body. In addition, he had been soaked in seawater, and the prison was dirty and full of bacteria. His wound would definitely get infected. If it was not treated in time, both of his arms and legs would definitely be useless.

“You are a hostage. It’s fine as long as you can breathe. Don’t fuss so much,” the violent little Loli said carelessly. “Bruce will not agree for you to leave the boat. Kill that thought early.”

Ye Tingyun had only seen Bruce once despite being kidnapped for so many days. He was indeed not someone who he could negotiate easily with. Ye Tingyun raised both of his hands. “Even if you let me escape, I can’t run far. If you don’t intend to kill me, then don’t let me become disabled.”

Ye Chu asked smilingly, “So what if you become disabled?”

Ye Tingyun said coldly, “You kidnapped me—it’s fine. You tortured me and forced me to confess, making me suffer through these beatings—it’s fine too. I won’t bear a grudge. If you want money, I can give it to you. If you want to trade me for my brother’s enemy, it doesn’t matter. I will just treat this experience as a trial in life. I won’t hate anyone. However, if both of my arms or one of my legs become useless, then I won’t be so easy to deal with anymore.

“For me to not bear any grudges, the condition is that I want to go home in one complete piece. Not even a finger less. If you don’t intend to kill me, then heal me.”
