"There's no mistake, I've already asked more than a dozen passers-by; this is indeed the Sea Shell Bay of Mingzhu City in Huaxia!"

"Ten years ago, Uncle Ye, Sister Mei, Brother Feng, the four of us lived here! But... how did the urban village of ten years ago turn into what it is now?"

"Uncle Ye, Sister Mei, Brother Feng, your Ye Xiao is back, but where are you? Do you still remember that lost child from ten years ago?"

On the drizzling rainy night, under the dim yellow street lights, Ye Xiao, who had just returned from overseas, stood blankly at a street corner where high-rises stood tall. His stern face as sharp as a knife was covered with strands of bitter smile.

He had to admit, he could not find the home from ten years ago that was always on his mind.

"Uncle Ye, Sister Mei, Brother Feng, I will find you!"

After a long while, his fists clenched and then released, veins bulging. Ye Xiao sighed deeply, then turned around, absently hailed a taxi and climbed into the back seat.

"Husband, wait for me!"

Just as Ye Xiao was about to close the car door, a dazzling figure suddenly rushed into the car, sitting next to Ye Xiao. Lin Caiwei boldly wrapped her arms around Ye Xiao's neck, tender and lingering. A faint, fresh fragrance spread.

Lin Caiwei was dressed in a black and white high school uniform, her ponytail tied high up, her exquisite face as delicate as the dawn flower bud, susceptible to a breath of air.

Her round, dewy eyes were bent, blinking rapidly, looking like half a crescent moon.

As his neck was encircled by Lin Caiwei's jade arm, Ye Xiao couldn't help but frown, and asked back, "What did you just call me?"

"Husband!"

Lin Caiwei's bright eyes were always filled with affection, and the tone of her speech was always soft and sticky, giving people the feeling that she was soft spoken, submissive and easily pushed down.

"Husband, don't be angry, I will go to the motel with you tonight, I will give you whatever you want! I... I listen to you!"

"Master, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and drive! Turn right ahead, to the Love Sea Hotel!"

As she spoke, Lin Caiwei casually tossed a red banknote at the taxi driver.

Catching his breath, the taxi driver, who had initially been flabbergasted, immediately zoomed off as if fueled by adrenaline, heading straight for the Love Sea Hotel mentioned by Lin Caiwei.

Through the rearview mirror, sharp-eyed Ye Xiao distinctly saw about a dozen menacing men standing where he had boarded the taxi, swearing and throwing punches and kicks at the direction of the taxi.

Glimpsing the thin layer of sweat on Lin Caiwei’s forehead and her panic-stricken eyes, Ye Xiao seemed to already have a guess. His gaze at Lin Caiwei changed from puzzled to playful.

Smirking, Ye Xiao naturally placed a hand on Lin Caiwei’s slender waist, then subtly began to slide it lower.

He could feel Lin Caiwei’s soft body starting to tense under his touch.

"Oh my, darling, you are so naughty!" she protested.

Casting Ye Xiao a seductive glance, Lin Caiwei purposefully placed her lips close to Ye Xiao's ear as she spoke, exuding an incredibly shy and affectionate demeanor.

The pitch-black interior of the taxi hid them from the driver's view. Even if he strained his eyes towards the rearview mirror, he wouldn't have been able to see any of the steamy scene. However, as he overheard Lin Caiwei’s words, he could use his imagination. The driver’s heart fluttered, and he nearly lost control of the taxi into a roadside flowerbed.

At this point, Ye Xiao’s fingertips were poised precariously close to Lin Caiwei's bottom.

"Don't move!"

Suddenly, Lin Caiwei's frosty and trembling voice softly floated into Ye Xiao's ear. The next moment, Ye Xiao found himself unexpectedly face-to-face with a sharp object at his waist.

Frowning slightly, he looked down under the street lights outside the window, only to find that Lin Caiwei was holding a pink eyebrow trimming knife in her hand.

Ye Xiao gave a faint smile, then retracted his hand nonchalantly, lighting up a cigarette and filling the air with smoke.

For a moment, the car was frighteningly silent, with only the clear sound of heartbeats.

Only then did Lin Caiwei start to really look at Ye Xiao.

Washed-out jeans, an old white shirt, buzz cut hair. Nothing remarkable about him.

But his chiselled side profile was exceedingly cold. His seemingly dull eyes were exceptionally clean, and the way he smoked was casual yet oppressive.

"This man has a story! No, perhaps a lecher with a story..."

While rolling her eyes at Ye Xiao, Lin Caiwei inwardly scoffed.

At this time, the taxi had already stopped at the front of the Sea of Love Hotel that Lin Caiwei mentioned.

The whimsical Lin Caiwei glanced at the car's rearview mirror. Seeing no one trailing them from behind, she surreptitiously withdrew the eyebrow razor pressing against Ye Xiao's waist and hastily got out of the car.

Once Lin Caiwei slammed the door shut and stepped out, the taxi driver, unable to hold back any longer, sneakily turned back to look at Ye Xiao who was slowly exiting the car, chuckling, "Young man, your wife sure is anxious. It's your lucky night!"

After Ye Xiao got out of the car, the taxi driver sped away. He didn't see that Lin Caiwei didn't rush into the Sea of Love Hotel after she got out of the car. Instead, she ran frantically along the sidewalk as if avoiding something.

"The Sea of Love Hotel?"

Ye Xiao naturally didn't have the time to watch Lin Caiwei, even though he already knew he had been played by her.

Looking up at the hotel, Ye Xiao sighed inwardly, "Looks like I can only make do here for the night."

With that thought, he stepped inside.

However, just as he had paid for the room and was about to head upstairs, a charming fragrance suddenly wafted from behind him.

The very next second, Lin Caiwei wrapped her arms around his waist from behind.

"Sweetie, why did you come in without waiting for me? I just went to the pharmacy across the street to buy condoms!"

As she spoke, Lin Caiwei, who was hugging Ye Xiao from behind, rapidly presented a tiny pink plastic bag to Ye Xiao.

Under the suspicious and astonished gaze of the hotel front desk clerk, Lin Caiwei, a young, beautiful schoolgirl dressed in a school uniform, unceremoniously dragged Ye Xiao to their second-floor room like a ruffian.

"Are those condoms? That's clearly chewing gum, isn't it?"

The clerk at the front desk shook his head with a wry smile, thinking, young people these days sure are something, even able to use chewing gum as a condom.

"Bang!"

The moment Ye Xiao, who was entering the room, slammed the door behind him, he immediately looked at the clueless Lin Caiwei standing by the bed with a teasing gaze.

After a slight hesitation, the corner of Ye Xiao's mouth twitched as he smilingly said, "Strip!"

"Strip?"

Lin Caiwei's face went pale, but she continued to play dumb. While subtly retreating half a step, she quickly covered her chest with her hands, then forced a smile and asked Ye Xiao, "Strip what?"

"Your clothes, of course!"

Looking straight at Lin Caiwei's stunningly beautiful face, Ye Xiao smiled slightly and said in a rather explicit tone, "Didn't you say that you would give me whatever I wanted once we checked into the hotel? If that's the case, what are we waiting for? Strip!"
