Hearing the introduction she made for him, he was very pleased, and he bossily pulled her into his embrace.

He glared at William and said, “Even though you are Xiaoxiao’s friend, I am her fiancé, and I don’t like to hear people calling my fiancée ‘baby.’ You should understand that, right?”

William smiled and retorted Yin Shaojie, “I call her ‘baby’ as a term of endearment. Even if you are Xiaoxiao’s fiancé, I don’t think that you have any right to intervene in this, do you? Don’t worry; I’m won’t be a threat to you. If that were not the case…”

He turned his head slightly, glancing at Mu Xiaoxiao.

It was as if he was telling Yin Shaojie that if he had any desires toward Xiaoxiao, she would have already been his.

Yin Shaojie smiled with pursed lips, but rage burned in his eyes.

The other party’s confidence had riled him up. If not for Xiaoxiao, he would have already gone up to him to give him a beating.

Yin Shaojie noticed that Mu Xiaoxiao was not making a sound, and he turned to look at her. And he found that the wretch was actually eating something! She had completely neglected to see the undercurrent hostility between him and William.

“This prawn dumpling is not bad, yummy! I didn’t expect the Cantonese-style morning tea here to be quite authentic. It’s pretty close to what we had in China. Eh, are you guys hungry? Hurry up and dig in.”

Mu Xiaoxiao could not be bothered by the confrontation between the two. She was already starving. Eating was still the priority!

Seeing the look of her chugging down food like that, the stiffened expression on Yin Shaojie’s handsome face instantly wore a gentle smile.

“Slow down. Don’t choke.”

Just when he warned her, Mu Xiaoxiao choked, patting her chest while trying to swallow the food.

Yin Shaojie quickly passed the teacup to her.

Mu Xiaoxiao gulped down the drink in one breath. Fortunately, the food went down successfully.

“You jinx!” She glared at Yin Shaojie, displeased.

Yin Shaojie raised his eyebrows. “You’re blaming me? Who asked you to eat so quickly? People who don’t know better might think that you had just escaped from a refugee camp.”

Mu Xiaoxiao glared at him angrily. “You’re the one who came from a refugee camp! How can an elegant lady like me be a refugee!”

“That’s what you looked like when you were eating just now. If you don’t believe me, take a look at yourself in the mirror.”

“Yin Shaojie! Do you want to sleep on the sofa tonight?”

“… I knew you would use this to threaten me. Can’t you try a different trick?”

“This is the only trick I need. Why do I need another?”

Yin Shaojie looked at her, speechless.

But seeing as Mu Xiaoxiao was coughing, he placed his hand on her back to help calm her down.

At the same time as William was eating, he watched from the amusing bickering between the two from the side.

…

Initially, William had wanted to find Mu Xiaoxiao in order to take her around the cruise to have fun like a good host should. However, with the bossy Yin Shaojie around, Mu Xiaoxiao naturally wouldn’t go with him.

In the end, Yin Shaojie found an opportunity and ditched William.

Holding Mu Xiaoxiao’s hand, the two strolled around the cruise, and they ended up outside the cinema.

Looking up the screening schedule, Mu Xiaoxiao saw that one of the movies was actually going to hit the screens in all big movie theaters in America only in a few days time. Little did she expect to be able to watch it first on the cruise.

She pointed at the poster on the wall and said, “Jie, let’s watch a movie!”

Yin Shaojie looked at where she was pointing. Seeing the title of the movie, he wrung his brows and said, “You want to watch this?”

Little Mermaid.

Isn’t this the live action movie adapted from the fairy tale?
