Chapter 289: Chapter 289: She Thought You Were Drowning Chapter 289: Chapter 289: She Thought You Were Drowning “Can’t you see I’m right here?” Ye Sihan’s face was cold.

Tang Yu wanted to say ‘I can’, but felt that Ye Sihan’s question, knowing the answer already, was somewhat inscrutable.

“You don’t need to keep watching them.” Ye Sihan leaned on the sun lounger, showing a bit of a low pressure.

Tang Yu speculated uneasily, what’s wrong with watching them? They are my children! Surely that can’t be wrong, can it?

She found it outrageous but couldn’t be bothered to ask further.

After all, Ye Sihan was always capricious; who could fathom his profound thoughts?

Deciding to change the subject, “Are you going to work? I can watch over this place; there won’t be any problems.”

“No rush.”

“Then… do you want me to apply sunscreen for you?”

Ye Sihan’s skin was lighter than bronze, surely he would sunburn after a while, right?

Ye Sihan looked at her for a moment, his eyes deeply knowing, “Come here.”

The sunscreen had been brought along, just in case it washed off in the water and needed reapplying.

Tang Yu took the sunscreen and walked over to Ye Sihan, who was bare-chested, exposing his muscular and sculpted torso, with clearly defined muscle lines winding down, radiating an untamed nature, giving her an extreme sense of pressure.

To tell the truth, Tang Yu was starting to regret it at that moment.

Applying the sunscreen felt overly intimate.

It was like when they were in the room, the manner in which Ye Sihan applied it…

“Regretting it?”

The voice, low and chilly, snapped Tang Yu back to reality. “No, not at all.” Then she squeezed some sunscreen onto Ye Sihan’s chest and began to spread it evenly with the palm of her hand.

The muscles moved under her palm, their lines intentionally or unintentionally brushing against the lines of her palm, merging in a way that made her palm itch distractingly.

Her heartbeat had to be carefully controlled so as not to be heard.

As she held her breath and tried to calm herself, a voice, low as if hoarsened, rose—

“Your heartbeat’s very fast.”

Tang Yu jumped, thinking her abnormal heartbeat had been heard and withdrew her hand reflexively.

Just as she was about to rise, her wrist was caught, and she was pulled over—

“Ah!” Tang Yu toppled forward, laying on Ye Sihan’s body, their faces, and even more their lips, very close.

That instant seemed frozen in time, only their entwined breaths and chaotic heartbeats occupying her entire mind.

“I was talking about my heartbeat, why are you panicking, huh?” Ye Sihan’s black eyes bore into her, deep and seemingly able to swallow the weaker her in the next second.

Tang Yu couldn’t analyze why Ye Sihan’s heartbeat was so fast. Perhaps it was because of the way she applied the sunscreen on his body, causing a series of physiological reactions…

“…I haven’t finished applying it, let me get up…” Tang Yu struggled to get off him, continuing to apply the sunscreen elsewhere on his body, trying to make her movements seem casual. “It feels a bit hot under the umbrella.”

Ye Sihan’s dark eyes fixed on her flushed face; that wasn’t from the heat.

But he didn’t expose her.

As the sunscreen application moved down, Tang Yu’s hand froze in place.

Her gaze hastily shifted away, her breathing slightly trembling.

Ye Sihan’s reaction was too frightening!

“I’m done, I’m going to see the kids… Ah!” Before Tang Yu could escape, her soft and delicate waist was embraced, and she ended up sitting in front of Ye Sihan.

“Don’t move.”

Tang Yu didn’t dare to move! Her body was rigid to the extreme! She was afraid that any movement might set off fireworks!!

On the sun lounger, Ye Sihan half-reclined, while Tang Yu leaned against his chest, both of them in such a position.

Tang Yu watched the little ones playing in the distance. With the bodyguards and nanny watching, there was no need to worry about accidents.

No, the most dangerous person at the moment should be her!

One of Ye Sihan’s hands was still on her waist.

She was dressed coolly, with a bit of her waist exposed, making it easy to touch the sensitive skin.

“Don’t… sit like this, let me down.” Tang Yu only dared to struggle verbally. “It hurts a little…”

Ye Sihan sat up, his broad chest enveloping her completely, his hand grasping her thigh to check the inner side of her leg.

There was indeed a spot of red on the tender inner side of her leg.

“So tender,” Ye Sihan’s voice was slightly rough.

The hot breath spilled beside Tang Yu’s ear, causing her to shrink her neck sensitively, her face and ears turning completely red.

“Let me down…” Tang Yu was close to crying, “The children are here…”

And the bodyguards and nanny too, what are they doing showing affection like this in broad daylight!

Ye Sihan, finding her near-panic quite amusing, stared at her face for a while, suppressed his boiling blood, then laid back down, his voice restrained, “Go ahead.”

Tang Yu, feeling greatly relieved, hurriedly got off him.

As she got up, she accidentally brushed against him and heard Ye Sihan’s muffled grunt.

Startled, Tang Yu hurriedly apologized, “Sorry, sorry, sorry!”

She said sorry three times in quick succession and fled towards the children.

The little darlings, having a blast, saw Mommy running over and scurried into the sea, leaving only their heads visible.

Immersing herself in seawater seemed to clear Tang Yu’s head quite a bit.

The heat on her face and body gradually subsided.

She silently let out a sigh of relief, as things had been too dangerous just before!

She was truly afraid that Ye Sihan would take advantage of her without restraint!

But Ye Sihan was just trying to scare her, right?

Even if that was the case, she was genuinely frightened!

Before she had been in the water for long, she saw Ye Sihan approach, pick up Xibao, and head towards the sea.

Out of the four children, only Xibao’s little bare feet were still dry.

As he prepared to let her feet touch the water, she lifted her feet high, her naive face filled with terror.

Every time Ye Sihan tried to lower her feet, she lifted them even higher.

Ye Sihan simply picked her up and sat her on his sturdy arm, “Don’t be afraid, Daddy’s here.”

Xibao shook her head, her face full of fear.

Ye Sihan set Xibao down on the sand.

Xibao looked for Mommy and just as she spotted Mommy’s head submerge in the water.

“!!!” Terrified, Xibao immediately ran towards the water to rescue Mommy.

Earlier she had been too scared to even touch the water, but now she threw herself right in.

If Ye Sihan hadn’t quickly grabbed her, she would have choked on seawater.

“Mommy! Mommy!” Xibao cried out with a wail.

Ye Sihan looked towards the sea.

Tang Yu had just emerged from the water, seemingly having heard Xibao’s crying?

Turning around, she indeed saw Xibao in Ye Sihan’s arms, crying loudly.

What’s wrong?

Tang Yu rushed up the beach, approached, and took the longing Xibao into her arms, gently patting her back, “What’s wrong? Why is she so frightened? Did you let her touch the water?”

When she asked Ye Sihan, her face looked displeased.

Ye Sihan, wrongfully accused, was expressionless, “She thought you were drowning.”

Tang Yu froze, recalling how she had submerged earlier, and understood what had happened.

She kissed Xibao, “Mommy was just swimming underwater! It’s okay now, no more crying. Come on, let’s go have a drink.”

They played on the beach for nearly two hours before heading back.

All four little ones were dozing off on the way back to the hotel.

Bodyguards and nannies carried them, and Ye Sihan carried Xibao. When they reached the hotel, everyone was asleep.

They didn’t wake up even when bathed in the bathroom.

After their baths, they were placed in bed to continue their deep slumber.

Tang Yu was tired too and lay down next to Xibao after her bath.

The only one who wasn’t tired was Ye Sihan.

He went to the study to handle contract matters.

After dealing with the contracts, he returned to the room, picked up the sleeping Tang Yu, and carried her to another room.

So when Tang Yu woke up, she found that the Xibao beside her had turned into Ye Sihan.

She was being held in a tight embrace that left her unable to move.

She tried to pull away Ye Sihan’s hands to get up but was embraced even tighter.

“Mmm… it’s time to get up.”

As Tang Yu stirred, the lightly sleeping Ye Sihan woke up.

His naughty hand was about to slip into her clothes when suddenly the door was kicked open with a bang.

Immediately after, four little bundles tumbled in and climbed onto the bed.

The bed was a mess with little bundles rolling around.

Ye Sihan’s plans were completely ruined, and he even got stepped on several times by his own offspring, his face turning darker by the moment.

To think he was powerful and influential, directing storms in the business world, yet he was trampled underfoot by these little creatures and could do nothing about it.
