The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 652

Nathaniel's expression turned a little grim.

He stepped forward and said to the man, "Hey, can we switch seats?"

The man glanced at Nathaniel and said lazily, "No."

Nathaniel tried to suppress his dissatisfaction as much as possible and whispered, "She's my wife. Well, as long as you are willing to change the seats with me, I will give you 1,000 dollars."

The man paused for a moment. He glanced at Mango, and he looked at Nathaniel again. Seeing that Mango didn't say a word and that she was also very attractive, he immediately said, "Nope." Nathaniel really wanted to shove him away. However, he tried to suppress his temper when he noticed Mango's teasing expression.

"Two thousand dollars!"

Nathaniel's words caused some turmoil in the surrounding passengers.

"We'll exchange seats with you guys, so why don't you give us the money instead?"

Mango couldn't help but let out a sigh upon seeing the enthusiasm of the passengers behind them.

Indeed, there was nothing money couldn't buy!

She looked at Nathaniel helplessly and agreed with the proposal of the passenger behind her.

The man who was sitting in between them suddenly became anxious.

"Miss, are you guys really together? Then I will switch with him. With you being so silent, I thought that he wanted to take advantage of you." Upon hearing this, Nathaniel's lips twitched.

Did he look like a pervert?

However, Mango shook her head with a smile, expressing that she was going to stick with Nathaniel's decision.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel was still holding a grudge on what happened, and he replied coldly, "Sorry, we won't exchange seats with you."

After that, Mango and he switched seats with the people behind them.

Nathaniel's mood instantly brightened up after he sat down with Mango as he wished, and the corners of his lips curled up into a smile.

He was like a satisfied lion after a meal.

Knowing that she loved to sit at the window seat, Nathaniel chose to be seated in the middle.

Soon, the plane took off, and the surrounding passengers began to quieten down.

Noticing that Nathaniel was positioning himself uneasily in the seat, she knew that he was not used to economy class.

The economy cabin was relatively narrow, so a tall man like him had to squeeze himself into the tiny seat. Other than that, there were people on both sides, so it was even more difficult for him to move comfortably.

She couldn't help but reach out and tugged on his hand. Then, she took out her mobile phone and wrote on it, "Would you like to upgrade? The flight is six hours, and you're just torturing yourself this way."

"Us?"

Seeing the look of anticipation in his eyes, she couldn't help but agree to it.

She was doing alright, but Nathaniel was uncomfortable in the economy cabin.

Noticing Mango's hesitation, Nathaniel could already tell that she liked the kind of atmosphere of being together with the rest of the regular people.

He held her hand and said in a low voice, "Forget it, I'll just stay here. It's fine."

Mango knew he was lying, and she was having mixed feelings.

She turned her face away as she looked at the scenery outside. Then, she told herself that it was his choice, and he couldn't blame her for that.

Upon seeing that Mango was ignoring him, he had no idea what was wrong with her. Since he couldn't ask her, he chose to take out his phone and send Thomas a message.

"You don't want your bonus this month, do you? You actually booked economy for me!"

Thomas felt a little exasperated when he saw the text message.

"Mr. Ye, you said that you wanted to live an ordinary life. There are a lot of ordinary people who book economy!"

"Well, fine. But why didn't you book our seats together. What are you trying to do?"

This was what infuriated Nathaniel the most.

As soon as he thought of the way the man looked at him, he wanted to give Thomas a good beating.

Thomas said with a smile, "There's nothing I can do since I booked the ticket late. Mr. Ye, you were in such a hurry that they don't have seats available for two anymore." "Bullsh*t! If you're determined to do it, you can arrange it any way you want."

Nathaniel didn't believe the words Thomas said.

Thomas continued, "Mr. Ye, you are just an ordinary person now. Therefore, you should look and act like one, right? Ordinary people can't change their seats that easily." "That's it! Just you wait."

Nathaniel was displeased with his response.

At this moment, the old man on the next seat was getting up and he accidentally scraped Nathaniel's mouth with the zipper on his bag.

Nathaniel's mouth twitched due to the sudden pain.

"What are you trying to do?"

Nathaniel asked.

The old man glanced at Nathaniel without saying a word. Then, he got up and went to the bathroom.

It was the first time that Nathaniel had been completely ignored.

He was a little frustrated. When he turned his head around, he noticed that Mango had already fallen asleep.

Her eyelashes were long, and they looked even more enchanting under the sunlight.

Then, Nathaniel asked for a blanket from the stewardess and gently covered her with it.

"Young man, are you two newlyweds? You two are so close."

The aunt in the next seat saw this and asked with a smile.

Nathaniel responded happily, "No, we have been married for eight years, but I'm too busy and I rarely have time for her."

"It's not easy. You guys have such a good relationship even after eight years. Your wife is not in good health, isn't she? She looks very sleepy." "Yes, she's not feeling quite well."

Nathaniel nodded.

"Young man, treat your wife better. If not you're gonna end up like me at my age where it's difficult to find someone who loves and cares about you." The woman said with a sigh, and her eyes were a little teary.

Nathaniel suddenly felt that time passed very quickly. In the blink of an eye, they had been married for eight years. Were they getting old soon?

Mango's head was resting on his shoulder while he leaned back on the seat. Then, he closed his eyes to rest.

In fact, Mango's eyes were closed, but she wasn't asleep at all. After sensing Nathaniel's movement, she paused for a moment before she continued to rest on his shoulder. Soon, she fell into a deep sleep on his shoulder while feeling his breath on her face.

The plane arrived in Nakasara six hours later.

Mango suddenly felt much better as she looked at the clear blue skies around her.

Many people began to get off the plane, but Nathaniel sat there and did not move.

Mango glanced at him as she gestured and asked, "What's wrong?"

"My legs are numb."

Nathaniel said with embarrassment.

It was really difficult to sit motionlessly for six hours in a row.

Meanwhile, Mango couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed after recalling that she had been sleeping soundly the entire time instead.

"You should have woken me up. Economy class is relatively narrow. You should get up and move around during the long flight."

"I'm fine."

Nathaniel said with a smile.

Sensing her concern for him, it was worth it even if his legs went numb.

After finally easing up a bit, Nathaniel got up and pulled her with him. He stretched out his arms in

order to prevent others from crowding around them.

Mango was a little embarrassed as she was taken care of by him. Upon seeing that many people were rushing towards the exit, she curled up in Nathaniel's arms and walked out slowly. After getting off the plane, they took a taxi heading to the hotel which had been booked in advance.

The air here was very fresh and the weather was nice.

After they settled down in the hotel, Nathaniel immediately left. Not long after, he had bought a lot of fruits for her, including mangoes, her favourite.

When she noticed the mangoes, she quickly took them from him.

"Aren't you allergic to mangoes?"

As she made a gesture, she quickly checked his hands and arms.

Nathaniel said with a smile, "It's all right. But you like them, don't you?"

Mango paused for a moment before making a gesture and saying, "I don't like them anymore."

Nathaniel knew that she was just concerned about his allergy to mangoes.

It seemed that she still cared about him, but she was just reluctant to express it.

Nathaniel watched as Mango carried the fruit inside. Then, he sat on the sofa before he opened up the travelling brochure and said, "Are we going to go on a tour or travel by ourselves?"

Mango thought for a moment before she gestured and said, "Tour. Since we're not familiar with this place. It's better to do so."

"Okay, it's up to you."

Nathaniel listened to her suggestion. Upon seeing this, Mango was a little taken aback.

"Don't just go along with everything I say."

"Happy wife, happy life."

Nathaniel joked before hethen leaned over with his mobile phone in hand.

His scent wafted through her nostrils, causing her to move away subconsciously.

However, Nathaniel acted as if he didn't see it and continued to fiddle with his phone. "So which tour group should we choose?"

Nathaniel, who had taken off his suit jacket, was looking forward to the trip just like a freshman who had just graduated.

Mango looked at him in casual clothing, and old memories flitted through her mind. During their university days, Nathaniel was always elegant and charming. He was so extremely handsome that people couldn't take their eyes off of him.

However, he had become even more mature and charismatic despite the passage of time.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel was waiting for her reply. Upon seeing that there wasn't any response, he suddenly raised his head and saw her eyes fixed on him dazedly.

He couldn't help but smile and said, "I know that I'm good-looking, but it's about time we leave to admire the beautiful scenery outside. So, my dear wife, please give me some suggestions so that we can go ou on a trip tomorrow."

Only then did Mango blush and regained her senses.

She was already the mother of two children. How was she still so powerless against his charms?

She was already a grown woman, yet her heart skipped a bit after looking at him just like a teenager.

She quickly lowered her head and casually clicked on an option on his phone.

"This? Are you sure?"

Nathaniel had been allowing her to take the lead so far. This made her feel like they were really an ordinary married couple on their honeymoon.

Mango nodded her head.

"Okay!"

Nathaniel decided on the tour package appointed by Mango. Then, he handed his wallet and credit card to her.

"What's the matter?"

Mango was a little confused.

"My wife should be in charge of the money. That's what a man should do."

"Where did you learn all of this from?"

Mango felt as if Nathaniel had been brainwashed.

Nathaniel said indifferently, "It doesn't matter. Anyway, it's yours. And if you don't mind it, I'm yours too."

Mango was dumbfounded.

She quickly got up and tried to ignore him. Just then, she suddenly heard the doorbell ringing.
