CEO's Reborn Wife-Chapter 229 - 237: Who Needs Your Explanation

Jane Sampson sat on the ground without any concern for her image, her face shining like starlight as she looked up at James Black through her sunglasses, her voice upbeat, "So, where are you taking me next time?" as she held a water bottle that was only half full.

Even though he couldn’t see her eyes behind her sunglasses, James could still feel that they were sparkling.

James curled the corner of his mouth in an inscrutable smile and said, "I’ll take you..."

He deliberately paused before continuing, "to climb the Great Wall."

Jane was startled for a moment, then, in a huff, she grabbed a handful of sand from next to her and threw it at James.

"I’m not going! James Black, you turtle egg! Cough, cough, cough! Damn! Why is the sand all flying toward my face?"

Jane didn’t even have time to stand up; instead, she rolled to the side.

The handful of sand she had thrown at James seemed to all end up back on her own face.

"Because the wind is blowing your way," James finally couldn’t hold back a chuckle, his laughter low. He stood tall, she sat low, his back was to the wind, and she faced it. So naturally, the sand she threw came right back to her.

"Who asked for your explanation?" Jane fumed as she got up and shook the scarf off her head. She wasn’t dumb; did she not know the wind was blowing her way?

It was just that she didn’t realize this during the moment of her angry toss, and now here he was so solemnly explaining it to her. Standing there, doing nothing, not even helping to dust the sand off her head?

Villain!

James must still be holding a grudge because she had called him daddy in front of so many people.

She had removed her mask just now to drink water and ended up with a mouthful of sand. She was so annoyed!

"Swig the remaining water, snap a photo if you want, or we can go elsewhere," James said, reaching out to pull the person sitting on the ground up.

Caught off guard, Jane was indeed pulled up by James but didn’t manage to stabilize herself. She shook and fell toward James. After she steadied herself, she noticed James had been pushed back several steps by her collision, his eyebrows twisted as he looked at her suspiciously, thinking she did it on purpose. Jane couldn’t help but start laughing proudly.

Serves him right!

Too bad she hadn’t bumped him hard enough to cause internal injuries!

Blame her, she was still too thin!

Although Jane and James had entered the tourism zone at noon, by the time they had watched the sunset in the mountain village and walked down to Tooth Spring before leaving through the gate entrance it was already 9:30 p.m.

There was a food street just outside the tourism zone, and James immediately took Jane, who had only snacked a little in the zone, over there.

It was almost 10 o’clock, but the street was extremely lively, filled with people just coming out of the scenic spots or those attracted to the food street’s reputation. James, familiar with the place, led Jane into a shop, gave a greeting to the boss, and then pulled Jane to sit down next to the doorway at an empty spot.

"Rice or noodles?" James asked.

"Whatever you want, I’m fine with either," Jane thought for a moment before adding, "You like rice, so let’s go with rice."

James’s gaze rested on Jane’s face for a few seconds before he looked away, neither agreeing nor objecting, then flipped through the menu and ordered food with the boss.

Since leaving the scenic spot, Jane had felt somewhat out of sorts. While James was ordering, she sat there dumbly, staring into space. Not wanting James to notice, she still forced herself to eat half a bowl of rice.
