Chapter 158 I love you, baby... (1/2)

At this time, Lexi and Ethan were slightly intoxicated after the 'Never have I ever' game.

”Alright, I give up.” Chuckling, Ethan Lu downed another drink after her last statement of 'Never have I ever had a naughty fantasy about you.' On the other hand, Lexi was only giggling as her cheeks were slightly flushed.

”My gosh, Ethan… what naughty fantasy is that? Hah, you better be careful, Mr. Lu.” Since they were on it since earlier, Lexi was more laid back and cool about every question she blurted out that was being accepted by him through a drink.

”Miss Yang, you don't want to know.” Shaking his head, Ethan Lu humored as he knew she'd have the shock of her life after knowing what kind of dreams he had in mind—romantic and steamy hot.

He added in an attempt of a whisper but failed miserably, ”I am a man who's head over heels about a woman named Lexi Yang—it's normal.”

”Hah, try me.” Taunting, Lexi's brows raised while her chin laid on the back of her hand as she challenged him to expose himself.

”No can do,” Knowing what she was trying to do, Ethan Lu chuckled even more as he shook his head in defeat. Indeed, even if he was slightly drunk, he would never, ever rat himself out.

After all, everything he had in mind after their 'marriage' was to make love with her every day—perhaps whenever he had the chance in a day.

”You will know after I change your surname to Lu.” He winked as a knowing smirk formed on the side of his lips.

Lexi gave up upon hearing his last remarks with a giggle. Her gaze then shifted on the side and spotted the lone guitar that was kept untouched since she boarded the ship.

Raising her brows as her index finger pointed to the direction of the guitar, she inquired, ”Is that yours?”

Following the direction of what she was pointing at, Ethan Lu smiled seeing his guitar that was waiting to be strummed. ”Right—thank you for reminding me.” With that said note, he abruptly stood up and strode towards the spot where the acoustic guitar rest.

He effortlessly picked it up and clung the strap across his shoulder as he slowly walked back to the table and dragged his chair to her side.

”Let me serenade you, Miss Yang.” He declared.

Although Ethan Lu was far from being drunk, his face still showed a pinkish blush on his cheeks that added to his already charming and dashing looks.

”How can I refuse, Mr. Lu?” Shrugging before she sipped a small amount of wine, Lexi accepted without a second hesitation that made Ethan Lu's heart fluttered with hearts and roses.

Clearing his throat, Ethan Lu checked its tone before he smiled in satisfaction. Raising his gaze to meet her anticipating pair of eyes that was unhurriedly blinking, while her lips were curled upward, he began.

”You're just too good to be true

Can't take my eyes off you~” Ethan Lu started singing as he professionally strummed the guitar without showing any difficulty.

”At long last love has arrived

And I thank God I'm alive~” Back when Ethan Lu stumbled upon this old song, although he liked it, however, he didn't appreciate the lyrics as he hadn't felt the feelings that it was emphasizing. But now, he could finally say that he was thankful that he got the chance to live and meet her in this lifetime.

”Pardon the way that I stare

There's nothing else to compare

The sight of you leaves me weak

There are no words left to speak~” As he sang this part, he winked at her that made her faintly giggled.

”...But if you feel like I feel

Please let me know that it's real~” Ethan Lu stopped as a huge grin plastered across his face.

Standing up, he took off the strap of the guitar and leaned the instrument on the table. Ethan Lu then offered his hand to her which made her arched her brows.

”May I have this dance?” He asked in a tender tone.

Although skeptical, she still accepted his offer to dance despite not having background music—by reaching out her hands to him.

Ethan Lu escorted her to the open space as their dance floor near the table where they dined and played a silly game 'never have I ever' game.

Turning to face each other, Ethan Lu smoothly traced her left arm down to her slender hands and guided it to his shoulder. He then smoothly moved his right hand and fixed it on her upper back while he gently grasps her right hand and holds it up about his shoulder level.
