The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 664

"Mrs. Ye, what do you mean by that?"

Boston noticed that something wasn't quite right with the expression on Nathaniel's face, so he interfered quickly, fearing that Mango would go back on her words.

However, Nathaniel just coughed and said, "What my wife means is that we are not short of money. No matter how much Edolie invests, we'll double it." Eddie's facial expression soured after hearing his words which directly targeted her. However, Mango smiled elegantly at the sight of this.

Boston was happy as he was responsible for the tourism industry. He quickly said, "Mrs. Ye, you're too generous."

"I just want her out from the tourism industry here. I'll pay no matter how much it will cost."

Mango made the gesture and was interpreted by Nathaniel.

Edolie suddenly stood up and stared straight at Mango. She said with a cautionary tone, "Mango, this is going too far. Have a little mercy and think about things over the long term. Aren't you afraid that something will happen to you if this gets out of hand?"

"Do you think you will be spared that if something happens to my wife? Edolie, you'd better hope that my wife is safe and sound. Otherwise, the next time it won't be as simple as kicking you out of Nakasara." Nathaniel's face suddenly became serious.

With a cold snort, Edolie left angrily after slamming the door.

Boston was well aware of the situation and tried to smooth the situation over. "Mr. Ye, Mrs. Ye, as you can see, the more people we have, the more strength we acquire. However, Edolie's investment has indeed made a huge contribution to us. If we were to withdraw her funds, that'll be a bit unreasonable. Now that everyone knows each other, we should all be friends, so let's not make a big fuss about money, shall we? Let's all take a step back and do according to what Mrs. Ye has said. I think this would be a better idea."

"You think? But my wife isn't happy now."

Nathaniel smiled and said calmly, "Then again, I should be talking with someone with higher authority and not with you all. I'd better call your director directly. I remember that your director is Sutton Zhang, isn't it?"

As Nathaniel mentioned the name of the head of the tourism ministry accurately, Boston couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. He then quickly said with a smile, "Mr. Ye, how about we let you know after a group discussion, is that alright with you?"

"Yes, that's a good idea!"

Nathaniel was a very straightforward person.

The others quickly urged the waiter to serve the food, but they were stopped by Nathaniel.

"No, that's okay. I'll just take my wife out for a walk."

After Nathaniel finished speaking, he got up and left with Mango.

Seeing that the important people had left, the others also followed suit.

As Mango and Nathaniel left, she felt much more relaxed. She was satisfied after seeing the exasperated expression on Edolie's face.

Seeing how calm she was, Nathaniel said with a smile, "Are you finally happy now?"

"Hm, if Edolie quits, are you really going to invest?"

Mango quickly made a gesture and asked.

"Well of course, that's for sure."

Mango was slightly taken aback by Nathaniel's adoring attitude. Then, she turned her face away

in embarrassment.

"What? You know me, I don't care about money. As long as you are happy, it doesn't matter how much I spend." Mango then nodded her head.

As the both of them walked casually along the road, they noticed a bazaar not far away from them. Then, Mango got excited instantly. Meanwhile, Nathaniel noticed her excitement. Without waiting for Mango to say anything, he brought Mango over to the bazaar.

It turned to be a jade market and there were a lot of small trinkets and many types of jades, but the color and quality were all subpar. Of course, Nathaniel looked down on the inferior products instinctively.

"If you like, I'll take you to a better jade market to have a look."

"You don't need to do that. Here is interesting too."

Mango gave him a smile and casually wandered around.

She went around every stall and talked with the owners. Although it was a little difficult, she felt very happy.

Looking at her bright smile under the sunset, Nathaniel's heart instantly felt full of happiness.

After strolling around for a while, Mango still remained interested.

Nathaniel softly whispered, "Why don't we invest a little here? This way, you can see these jades every day."

"No, that's okay. I like strolling around like this."

Mango replied with a smile.

The couple then found a pavilion and sat down to relax.

Seeing that Mango was drenched in sweat, Nathaniel said in a gentle voice, "Sit here and rest for a while. I'm going to buy some fruits and water for you." "Alright!"

Mango nodded her head happily.

After Nathaniel left, Mango noticed a pair of elderly grandparents playing around with their grandchildren not far away from her. Looking at them felt very warm.

As the sun went below the horizon, the scene felt even warmer. It made her hoped that she could live like this too when she got old.

Right at this moment, another couple entered the pavilion and sat next to Mango.

"Wow, I'm so tired."

The woman said delicately.

Mango didn't say a word, but she subconsciously moved to the side.

The man then got up and walked straight to Mango and said, "You, sit on the other side."

Mango was stunned for a moment. She looked around only to realize that she was the only one in the pavilion. This man was indeed talking to her.

The woman interrupted.

"Hey, are you deaf? Didn't you hear him? Can't you see that there are two of us?"

Mango paused for a moment and felt extremely uncomfortable in the situation.

If they spoke in a nicer tone, she would really move to the other side right away. After all, couples loved to do everything together. Of course, she understood, as she was like this too in the past. But the two of them were rude, and they were being arrogant, which made her feel a little reluctant to let them do what they wanted.

Mango glanced at them and pretended that she didn't have the ability to see and hear. She was totally immersed in putting on an act.

"Hello, I know you can hear me. Now, move out of the way, will you?"

After realizing that Mango wasn't even looking at

them, instead, she turned her head to look at the view. Then, he stretched out his arm and slapped Mango in the face.

Mango was prepared for this. As the man was about to slap her, her eyes suddenly narrowed. Her body reacted quickly, and she kicked his stomach.

Normally, anyone who was hit by Mango would usually fall to the ground and needed some time to get back up. However, this man surprisingly only took a few steps back and stood steadily. He suddenly took out a pocket knife and shouted, "What the heck, you're a feisty one, aren't you? Now you're going to get it."

As he spoke, he already swung his knife in front of Mango.

Mango was startled and she curled her body before she took two steps back. However, she could feel a fist coming right at her from behind.

She realized that the woman who also made her move.

To her surprise, both of them were skilled in martial arts!

Of all places, she encountered martial artists here? Plus, it was way too coincidental that they fought for the seat when she was left alone?

Mango's mind whizzed quickly but she didn't dare to make any unsure movements.

She narrowly escaped the man's knife, but she couldn't avoid the woman's fists and kicks.

Mango decided not to be on the defensive anymore. Just as the woman's leg was about to land on her stomach, Mango grabbed onto her ankle and pulled it towards her. In an instant, the woman was doing a split on the ground.

"Ah!"

The woman shouted in pain as she used too much force.

As soon as the man saw this, he approached Mango again.

Mango's gaze turned grim and she quickly attacked the man's joints.

On the other hand, he wasn't expecting Mango to be so skilled. His arm was dislocated by Mango's kick when he wasn't paying attention.

The couple looked frightened at Mango's abilities. She then made a cold gesture and said, "Go back and tell your boss to bring it on."

She didn't know if they understood her, but they got up and fled right away.

When Nathaniel returned, Mango was still sitting there as if nothing happened. She was still watching people frolicking around.

"Here, I bought your favorite mangoes."

Nathaniel handed over the fruit he had bought for Mango.

Mango smiled gently and ate the fruit without mentioning a single word about the incident just now.

Nathaniel suddenly detected a faint smell of tobacco and a strong smell of perfume in the air.

Did someone come just now?

He was a little taken aback. But as he looked at Mango who was happily devouring the fruit, he chose not to ask anything. However, he was still curious. After Mango was finished, Nathaniel was afraid that she was hungry, so he brought her to somewhere nearby to eat. After that, they returned to the hotel.

Just as Mango was about to enter the room, she was suddenly stopped by Nathaniel.

"What's wrong?"

Mango made a quick gesture and asked.

Nathaniel then said shamelessly, "I want to sleep with you tonight."

His eyes blinked a few times and they looked exactly like Zion's.

Mango forcefully pushed him away and gestured. "Don't think you can use those eyes on me. Do you think you're Zion?"

"Isn't it the same? Just treat me like Zion. I need comfort, warmth, and most importantly you!"

Nathaniel's words made Mango get goosebumps all over her skin.

Throughout the trip, she witnessed many different sides of Nathaniel, which changed her perspective of him. It even made her doubt whether she really knew Nathaniel before. "So, it that a yes?"

Nathaniel shook Mango's arm, which caused a chill to run down Mango's spine, and she hurriedly pushed Nathaniel away.

"Hey, you'd better say it properly!"

"So, is that a yes or not?"

Nathaniel felt slightly aggrieved.

They were now a married couple. Was it so difficult for them to sleep in the same bed?

Mango's face turned a little red. She coughed and said, "Sleep in the living room on whatever sofa you can find, and you're not allowed to enter my bedroom."

After that, she opened the bedroom door aggressively and went in.

"Are you kidding me? But the sofa is so hard to

sleep on!"

Nathaniel complained, but he still followed her into the room.

Mango gestured for him to do whatever he liked before she entered the bedroom.

She couldn't be bothered with Nathaniel at all.

Nathaniel helplessly shrugged his shoulders and looked at the sofa next to him. Then, he made a cup of coffee before he knocked on Mango's door.

"Darling, can I take a shower in your bathroom?"

Mango frowned slightly.

Nathaniel was absolutely doing this on purpose.

If she opened the door, would Nathaniel leave afterwards?

But if she didn't open it, he would just continue shouting outside.

Mango opened the door and made a quick gesture, saying, "You'd better be quick."

"Got it. But a bath still takes time."

After Nathaniel finished speaking, he went into the bathroom.

Mango could hear the water starting from the bath and looked through the frosted glass. She could see Nathaniel's hazy figure and couldn't help but feel heat rush through her face.

She quickly went to find a paper towel, afraid that Nathaniel would see such an embarrassing side of her.

Right at this moment, she could hear a sound coming from the balcony of her bedroom.
