As she finished speaking, Ni Yang turned and walked towards the river.

“Hey! What are you doing?” Seeing her walk back into the river, the man was startled, and grabbed her wrist. With a swift jerk, he pulled her into his embrace. His one hand gripped hers, while the other wrapped around her slim, soft waist. The feeling of her softness and warmth in his arms momentarily stunned him.

He could clearly smell the unique, clean scent that emanated from her, like bamboo but not quite, mixed with the faint allure of orchids.

It was intoxicating, much like the mesmerizing allure of a poppy flower.

Ni Yang quickly regained her senses, immediately backing away to a safe distance as she explained, “I’m going to pick up the fishing trap. Don’t misunderstand!”

“All,” the man coughed lightly, “Well, I’ll go with you.”

He acted as though Ni Yang might fling herself into the river in the next second.

He considered himself a righteous young man.

Ni Yang was about to refuse when the man was already a step ahead, walking forward.

Left with no choice, Ni Yang hurried after him, “The fishing trap is over here.”

The man, born into privilege, had never seen a fishing trap. He exclaimed in surprise like a child, “Wow! So many fish! Is this the fishing trap?”

Ni Yang nodded, “Mhm.”

The man took the fishing trap from Ni Yang’s hands, “Let me carry it.”

The trap appeared light when Ni Yang was holding it, but once he took it, he realized how heavy it was. It was probably around thirty to forty pounds.

He was astounded by how much strength the delicate-looking girl possessed!

“No need. I can handle it,” Ni Yang caught up to the man.

This man was being a bit too familiar. They had only met ten minutes ago yet it seemed as though Ni Yang had known him for a long time.

The man laughed, “I’m a man, after all. It’s not right to have a weak and delicate girl like you do the heavy lifting.”

Noting the sincerity in his words, Ni Yang found it hard to refuse and thanked him instead.

“No problem,” the man said, “Next time you come to retrieve the trap, bring your father with you. This kind of work is more suitable for men.”

Ni Yang answered flatly, “1 don’t have a father.”

Having a father like Mu Jinbao was no different from not having one at all.

The man looked surprised, touching his nose apologetically, “I’m sorry. 1 didn’t know your father had already…”

So, that was why she could handle herself so well at such a young age. Necessity makes the man, indeed…

For a moment, the man’s expression was quite complex.
