The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 762

Looking at Mango's starry eyes, Nathaniel smiled and brushed her nose.

"Why not? My wife wants to draw a portrait of me.

I would always make time for you."

"Did you put honey on your mouth today? I can't stand the cheesiness anymore."

Mango shook her head as she said this, then quickly turned around and left.

Nathaniel grabbed her hand and said, "Who else do you want to stand if you can't stand me?"

"I don't know. Maybe someone who isn't that smart."

"You wouldn't!"

"Who said I wouldn't?"

After saying that, Mango turned and ran away quickly.

"Don't run away like a coward!"

Nathaniel ran after her too.

Mango laughed as she ran, "I'm not a guy. I can be a coward."

"Aren't you going to stop?!"

"I'll stop if you catch me!"

Mango and Nathaniel were running on the bustling street like two children.

Their laughter echoed in the air. It was pure, sincere, and touched the hearts of anyone who heard it.

The two didn't care what other people thought about them at all. They were happy and carefree, where they let go of themselves completely. They didn't stop until Mango was tired and collapsed onto the ground next to a flower bed, but Nathaniel picked her up from the ground.

"What? I'm exhausted."

Mango pouted like a child.

Nathaniel didn't reply her, but he took off his coat and laid it on the stone surrounding the flower bed.

"Sit here. We're sweating now. You'll catch a cold like this."

Mango looked at the coat and said with a grin, "That coat's worth thousands of dollars, you know."

"Look at you, acting like you care a lot about money. Your health is worth more than thousands of dollars. Besides, the money I'd earned is entirely yours and the children's. Not to mention, didn't you tell Bosco that time? You'd said that our family's so poor that money's all who have left now. This thousand-dollar coat is nothing. From now on, my wife will drink two cups of coffee everyday, one for drinking and one to pour it down the drain."

Mango looked at Nathaniel in disbelief. She giggled and asked, "Why do I have to waste the other cup?"

"Because that'll show our status! Our family can afford to waste."

"Nathaniel, you're going crazy."

Mango poked Nathaniel's head playfully.

Nathaniel sat down beside her, not offended by her remark.

"Going crazy for such a beautiful woman like you."

"Stop. Stop it. This doesn't suit you. Mr. Ye, please remain cold and icy, thank you."

Mango laughed so hard that her stomach ached.

"I'm glad to be the reason you're laughing. Ms. Shen, I have some bad news."

Nathaniel expression was serious suddenly.

"Tell me, I can bear it."

As she said this, Mango leaned against Nathaniel's shoulder and yawned.

She wasn't the sporty type, so she was tired after all that action.

Nathaniel propped her up into a comfortable position and said, "Our car is at least five kilometers away from us right now. What should we do? Shall we walk back?"

"Are you serious?"

Mango felt deflated as there wasn't any strength left in her.

"I'm so tired! I don't want to walk."

"Then, shall I carry you on my back?"

Mango's eyes lit up immediately at Nathaniel's suggestion.

"Are you sure? I've gained some weight recently."

"I could still carry you even if you turn into a pig."

"Nathaniel, you're the pig!"

Mango didn't like being called a pig at all.

However, Nathaniel said with a smile, "Yes, yes. I'm the pig. And I like carrying my wife."

Why did Mango feel that Nathaniel was being sarcastic?

"Hmph! Squat down! I want to get on your back."

She patted Nathaniel lightly.

Nathaniel was cooperative and squatted immediately.

Looking at Nathaniel's broad back and shoulders, Mango suddenly felt secured and safe.

"Come on! What are you waiting for?" "I'm figuring it out."

Of course, Mango would not admit that she was actually fascinated by Nathaniel's back.

Then, Nathaniel carried Mango on his back and walked towards the car slowly.

Mango laid on his shoulder and couldn't help but be mesmerized by Nathaniel's scent.

"Nathan, I'm sleepy."

"Take a nap. I'll wake you up when we get home."

Nathaniel said lovingly and gently.

Mango didn't complain further, and fell asleep on Nathaniel's shoulder not long after that.

As he heard Mango's steady breaths, the corner of Nathaniel's lips curled up involuntarily.

In that moment, he truly hoped that there would never be an end to this path. He wanted to carry Mango like this until the end of time, and to the ends of the earth.

When Nathaniel brought Mango back to the Hans family's house, Mateo and Terrance weren't asleep yet.

When they saw Mango sleeping soundly on Nathaniel's back, they couldn't help but say, "So this young lady went out to have fun with you? We were wondering what she had gone out for. She was being so mysterious and didn't even bother to tell us. We were worried that something might happen to her if she went out alone. Look what time is it. She's only back now! She's becoming more reckless."

Nathaniel smiled in reply, then carried Mango back to her room.
