The Female CEO Falls in Love with Me

(Adding the third update from yesterday)

Cuddled under the moonlight watching the sea, who knows how much time had passed—checking the time at a moment like this is just mindless and spoils the mood. Yu Xiaodi thought about the other side of the city where he lived, and how it would take over an hour to get back, he couldn't stay like this with her the whole time.

She sighed lightly with a hint of regret, "I really wish you could stay tonight..."

"No way, right? Your mom would have someone throw me out," Li Yan laughed exaggeratedly.

Yu Xiaodi playfully punched him and giggled, "Uncle, our place is so big, we can easily find you a place, at most you'll sleep on the beach."

"Alright, didn't you say this place is very romantic? Sleeping on the beach with you would definitely be an unforgettable memory."

Hearing Li Yan's words, Yu Xiaodi remained silent for a moment, if it really were like that, it would indeed be an unforgettable memory! But her mom definitely wouldn't agree, even if they did nothing on the beach, she wouldn't agree.

"What's up? Why did you suddenly go quiet?"

Yu Xiaodi chuckled, "I just thought of something."

"What is it?"

"Your lips are chapped, do you need lip balm?"

"... " Li Yan was speechless, "Do I?"

Yu Xiaodi suddenly looked up and giggled shyly, "Better now?"

Li Yan, seemingly understanding, nodded with a subtle smile, "A bit better."

"Need some more?"

"More? No need, right?"

"Fine, whatever! Hmph..." Yu Xiaodi turned away with a soft huff.

"What again?"

"I hate when people have chapped lips," Yu Xiaodi held back her laughter.

Li Yan thought for a moment, "My lips are chapped... I don't want that either!"

"Then... why not apply more lip balm?"

"Then apply it?" Li Yan blinked.

"Hey, don't feel forced if you don't want to apply it." Yu Xiaodi teased with a grin.

"Actually, I want it..."

"Hey! I warn you, when I do apply it, don't say too much nonsense, alright?" Yu Xiaodi pretended to be fierce.

"I already said I wanted it, but couldn't it be a bit more professional?"

"How do you mean?"

"At least it should be at the chocolate flavor level, right?"

"So much nonsense..."

...

While Li Yan was playing his role together with her, at the end of the beach, about tens of meters away, several people dressed in frogman gear with dive goggles emerged from the water. They quickened their pace, swam to the beach in front of them, and then dragged a net, carefully moving towards the shore.

They were all very fortunate, firstly that they were still on the beach, because if they had already left, it would have all been in vain. Secondly, that they were sitting together intimately kissing, compared to playing or walking; this difficulty was significantly reduced. Finally, they happened to meet at a moment when the clouds obscured the moon, it was simply the perfect timing, location, and people!

So what hesitations? Get on with it! Just drag them into the water and drown them!

A few frogmen were already walking towards the shore from the water. The sea water only reached their waists now, and there were only a few meters between them and the two people on the beach. If they rushed over and captured them, they could be dragged back into the sea.

However, the frogmen's gear allowed them to swim quickly along the hillside of the bay, but they were not as agile walking on land. Moreover, the water was calm, and making too much noise could alert the others. Having such a favorable start, they didn't want to ruin it, so they cautiously moved up along the sea water.

At this moment, Li Yan patted Yu Xiaodi on the back, releasing her lips.

In the dim light, Yu Xiaodi gazed dreamily at Li Yan from up close and whispered, "Thank you for cooperating with my act..."

"Thank you for applying the lip balm for me, but now..." Li Yan suddenly turned his head and said to the frogmen a few meters away, who were already halfway out of the water, "Did you really think I was dead? Didn't notice even when you got so close?"

Yu Xiaodi hadn't noticed and immediately turned her head to see the frogmen, surprised. However, unlike the previous passive situations, this was at her familiar doorstep, the home advantage made her less nervous and scared, so she instinctively stood in front of Li Yan, shouting loudly, "Stop pretending to be ghosts! Who are you?!"

Xiaodi acted purely out of instinct. She knew very well that Li Yan's abilities were far superior to hers and didn't need her protection, yet when danger arrived, she couldn't help but want to shield him, which surprised and slightly moved Li Yan.

"Comrades, it's time for you to catch the thieves!"

The frogmen had intended to take the risk and quietly abduct them into the water, only to be unexpectedly discovered by Li Yan when just a few meters away. Although it caught them off guard for a moment, they quickly moved forward with a net when Yu Xiaodi was speaking without answering.

Li Yan's last sentence was considered by them as a mere bluff. But they were not far from the Yu Family, and every second wasted increased the chances of failure! As long as they could drag the two into the water, even if the Yu Family's guards arrived, it would be too late, and they could drown them and escape.

As the frogmen rushed forward, a ghostly and agile figure swiftly dashed from behind Li Yan and Yu Xiaodi. While the frogmen's flippers were convenient for swimming, they hindered running, especially when moving from the water to the shore. The figure, on the other hand, was different, moving at great speed. As it reached behind Li Yan and Yu Xiaodi, it jumped into the air, leaping over their heads. The figure kicked one of the two frogmen already ashore, causing him to collide with the one behind him and knock both down.

The figure also fell onto the sand due to the counterforce, but it quickly propped up its hands on the sand behind its shoulders, flipped its body, and stood up!

Of course, this was Li Jie, who was secretly protecting Yu Xiaodi. Li Yan knew she was following behind, so he didn't need to make a move himself and could just sit there comforting the little beauty. When Li Jie stood up facing them, she heard Li Yan complaining under his breath, "Can you not jump over people's heads? Getting crossed by a girl stunts growth..."

Her reaction almost caused her to fail her flip, but it wasn't the time to settle scores with Li Yan. After getting back on her feet, she leaped again, elbowing another frogman in the head! After a successful hit, she twisted the person's neck and pulled him down during her descent.

Yu Xiaodi watched in amazement, "Wow! Wow!" Li Yan, on the other hand, observed the technique. Li Jie's skills were impressive, but she specialized in agility and swiftness. To maintain lightness, speed, agility, and flexibility, she had to sacrifice some strength, which limited extensive muscle and strength training. So, she capitalized on her strengths and used precise, quick strikes, often using kicks, airborne strikes, and elbows instead of fists.

Seeing the two frogmen struggling to get up and the untouched one ready to dive back into the water, Li Yan swiftly lifted Yu Xiaodi with all his might, making her stand.

"Now's the chance to strike the drowning dog hard!"

"Okay!" Yu Xiaodi said excitedly and enthusiastically kicked the one she knocked down, while Li Yan went over to kick the two that just got up.

Seeing Li Yan and Yu Xiaodi helping out, Li Jie immediately dashed into the water, stepping on the frogman who was trying to swim away, and pushed his head under while striking him.

Li Yan grabbed one by the throat and dragged them into the water, squeezing tighter on those who struggled or hit him until they didn't dare move. He observed:

"Want to drown us? I'll make you drink ten gulps of water first!"

"Disturbing others' romance, I'll make you drink ten more gulps!"

"For causing me to suffer... I'll give you another ten gulps!"

...

Yu Xiaodi kicked the frogman she downed on the beach, venting not just on this group but on all the past ambushes targeting her, until the person was knocked unconscious.

Li Jie acted swiftly too, pinning the person down in the sea, punching and kicking, quickly knocking him out as well, dragging him to the shore like a dead dog.

The two of them watched as Li Yan dunked the two frogmen in and out of the water. Yu Xiaodi, feeling still unreleased, ran into the water, "Let me have a try!"

She also wanted to press two villains underwater at once.

The clouds covering the moon had floated away long ago, and under the moonlight on the sea, the two had stopped struggling. Seeing this, Li Jie quickly waded over and pulled one away from Li Yan. "You've already made them drink enough! Otherwise, they'll get waterlogged or die from saltiness!"

Li Yan and Li Jie each dragged an unconscious frogman, coughing water, to the beach. Yu Xiaodi dared to kick them one by one, but afraid of really kicking them to death, she only dared to kick their bodies, avoiding their heads.

Seeing water stains on Li Yan's lips again, Yu Xiaodi rushed over, concerned, "Li Yan, did you get water into your mouth too?"

Li Jie also looked over, and Li Yan sucked in a breath of air and smiled, "No!"
