CHAPTER 528
The drive continued and Nao spoke a lot about the island, Maui, Hawaii. At the moment, he was telling them a few fun facts of the island.
"Maui is the second largest of the Hawaiian Islands and it has one of the world's largest dormant volcanoes," Nao spoke with a certain hint of pride about his home.
"That is pretty interesting," said one of the men.
"I also heard you guys have a lot of pineapple farms here. Is that true?" Another person, a lady asked.
Nao smiled and nodded in response. It was another one of his favourite things in the island as he loves the pineapples.
"Maybe after the tour, we could visit one of the farms. If you would love to that is."
"I would definitely love to. I wonder if they make pineapple smoothie."
"They do," Nao confirmed.
The drive came to stop soon. They visited a lot of places and heard different fascinating things about them from their tour guide, Nao.
Places like the famous Haleakalā National Park and the Waianapanapa State Park. They walked past the Iao Valley but not into because of the scary stories of ghosts residing there.
No one wanted to be scared enough to pee their pants. And they were there for relaxation not to get anxiety attacks because a ghost pooped out of nowhere during the tour.
Nao took them to other fun and beautiful places on the island and they were all content and lucky they tagged along for the tour. All except Miss mini dress, high heels and red hair.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtYue Jing was furious and probably aching. Of course. Why would she not? She came on a tour when most of the things would be seen while taking long walks.
And instead of a pair of comfortable sandals or flip-flops, and clothes, she chose to heels and a clubbing outfit.
There was even a time when they passed by damp area, Yue Jing became an easy sweet target to the mosquitoes. It was known that a few places on the island had such.
And they all came prepared with either mosquito repellants or bugs spray. So when the problem came about, they were spared.
But don't get me wrong. Yue Jing came prepared too. It is only that the preparation was not for the tour but to snatch someone's husband.
Bai Renxiang and a few other women, could not hold in their laughter for long. Seeing her in such pitiful sight when she was being all bitchy to most of them was rather satisfying.
If not for the sympathy they had as humans as they finally helped her, she would have gone all red with swollen circles in her arms, thighs and legs.
Maybe she would have bled from how hard she scratched.
Bowen and a few other persons lent her a long sleeved shirt and pair of long socks. Yue Jing was expecting sympathy or helping material from Li Fengjin, but what he did stunned her.
The man was busy making sure that his wife was very well protected. He was currently helping her were a pair of socks even though she wore pants long enough to her ankles.
"I don't any thing to happen to our flawless skin," she heard him say.
Her shocked turned into jealousy and a get when she saw the bashful smile on Bai Renxiang's face.
'How dare that woman enjoy the love and care that is supposed to be mine?' Yue Jing thought.
Bowen would only sigh and shake his head. He had been keeping watch on her since she stepped into the bus. For him she was trying too hard.
"Young miss, Mr Li might think lowly of you if you become too pushy. He has not paid attention to you since we were in the bus," Bowen whispered to her.
"Humph. You do not know anything about my Feng. He has just not paid attention to me because of that bitch that has been clinging unto him like a leech," Yue Jing retorted.
"But that is his wife. It is normal for her to be with him everywhere he goes."
"She will not be his wife for long. I am taking over very soon. I just need to find an opportunity to get her out of the way."
While they were on the Kapalua Coastal Trail, walking as usual, Yue Jing thought of a plan. Luckily for her, Li Fengjin and Bai Renxiang were behind the others.
She instantly stopped in front of them and slouched her shoulders. She let out a damsel in distress complaint. "Ouch! My legs hurt so much."
Bai Renxiang's brows instantly shot upwards. She could clearly see through this lady's actions. She had been wondering what her aim was and now she knows.
"Are you tired? If you are I can carry you," Li Fengjin asked the Bai Renxiang.
Bai Renxiang shook her head. It was not that she was not tired. She was. But the thought of him carrying her in whatever way made her shy.
They had already gotten a good amount of attention from everyone because if their outfit and his other display of affection since the tour began.
She was not sure if she could handle anymore of it. So she declined. But Li Fengjin was having none of it. He could see through her.
He instantly wore the bag in his front before squatting in front of Bai Renxiang. "Come. I will piggyback you. It is more comfortable and convenient for the both of us."
Yue Jing thinking she is the one he is talking to smiled triumphantly. She knew no man would be a blessing to resist a tired lady after taking a long walk. And Li Fengjin was like that too.
"Thank you. I really appreci–"
Yue Jing's words got stucked in her throat when she turned to face them. Bai Renxiang had already positioned herself on Li Fengjin's back and he stood up after making sure she was settled.
"But I am the one who is tired not her," Yue Jing said in a hurt voice.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHer eyes were a little watery as if she would cry at any moment and her lips were pouty. She gave her best weak lady expression.
"But you are not my wife," Li Fengjin stated the obvious and that earned a him a gasp.
By now the others had noticed that they were not following and had turned back. Only for them to watch the scene unfold before them. From Yue Jing's crestfallen face and Li Fengjin's wordds, they could read the rest of it.
"Besides, my wife is also tired. I won't ignore her because someone else also claims to be tired. So..." He shrugged as he left the remaining words unsaid. He then walked quickly to join the others.
Yue Jing felt like a hot slap fell across her face. Did he just say all those things to her? Loud and clear? She could not believe it. He was supposed to have his eyes all over her like the other guys in the group.
"They are a couple. Why don't that lady get it already?" Someone grumbled.
The fact that no one said anything dies not mean they had no eyes and brains to understand all that has been going on. First, it was how she has been trying to talk to the man but got ignored.
Second, was when one of them talked about the ghost of Ioa Valley. Yue Jing hurried to cling unto Li Fengjin's hand like a scared little girl despite their distance. Luckily his wife was smart to hug him to herself.
And now this.
"Ahem! If you don't mind, Miss... I could piggyback you for a few minutes until your leg is fine," Nao quickly offered to clear the awkward atmosphere.
He wanted to ensure no bad energy builds between his tour group. It would only ruin the tour for everyone.
<<Author: If only he knew his offer has fuelled the bad energy. Sigh>>
Yue Jing got what he was trying to do and agrees. Although she did not care about what everyone else thinks of her, she still needs help. Since her target is playing hard to get, she would let him be... For now.
Also, the tour guide does not seem that bad. He was tall, has a charming face and is quite muscular. Having him back her when she knew some of the single ladies on the group was crushing on him quelled her anger.
She could make do with him while she plans her next move on Li Fengjin.
So after Nao stood up firm with her on his back, she breathed thanked him beside his ear. She got a favourable reaction just as she always expected.
'My charms are still intact. I just need to try harder for Feng to get to fall for me,' Yue Jing thought with a smile in her face.
