Rachel, skilled from practice, didn't resist, carefully erasing the lingering taste that Hill had left on that bad thing.
Ye Li rewarded her with a little something in return~
"Mmm…"
…..
After finishing her "task," the cat-eyed girl glanced at the fruit tray she'd been holding the whole time, pursed her rosy lips, and said a bit shyly, "Seriously… I came to bring snacks, but ended up full myself first. And now the fruit's all messy… sorry."
"No problem."
Ye Li casually plucked a small fruit and popped it into Hill's mouth. "Here, I'll feed you."
Hill's gray-green eyes widened as she refused, "I don't want it!… mmph…!"
But she didn't get the chance. He stuffed it in forcefully.
"Alright, you guys enjoy sunbathing. I'm heading to the beach for a bit."
After teasing the poor Deputy Director of S.H.I.E.L.D.,
Ye Li decided to head down and play around—maybe go find Sable.
But just as he passed behind Gwen— the spider-girl tilted her head with a sly smile, her snowy-white foot stretched out and hooked around his calf~
"Heading down to the beach, Li? Got your eye on someone? I'm guessing… Miss Sable, right?"
"Mmhmm~"
Ye Li didn't bother denying it. As he toyed with her perfect little foot, he asked, "And what's this move, huh? Want to challenge me again?"
"Exactly!"
Gwen grinned mischievously, declaring, "I'm rallying the girls for another charge! Since we can't win in close combat, we'll debate with our mouths this time!"
"Oh? Not running—coming straight at me, huh?"
Ye Li saw Jessica and the others looking eager too, so he gladly accepted their challenge.
On the expansive balcony, he spent quite some time again before finally stepping down as the victor and strolling out of the villa toward the beach.
"Boss, finally decided to come down, huh?"
Silver Sable was enjoying a massage from her subordinate. When she saw Ye Li approach, she waved at him, "Come play over here~"
As she raised her hand, the view up front became even clearer, and Ye Li couldn't help but walk toward her…
"Well? Looks clearer now that you've come closer, right~"
Sable lifted her elegant head and gave him a seductive smile.
The silver strands that draped over her fragrant shoulders slipped down her smooth back, with a few falling neatly into the perfect valley—utterly tantalizing.
"Still not clear enough."
Ye Li wasn't no fool, and wouldn't let Sable tease him unchecked. With a playful smile, he said, "If you sit up, then I'll be able to see very clearly indeed."
"In your dreams~"
The silver-haired beauty rolled her eyes and picked up a red-and-white shell, handing it to him. "Here~ just found this, it's for you."
"Wow~ You're out here collecting shells?"
Ye Li caught it and flipped it in his hand. "You're acting like some innocent young maiden."
"I am a maiden, okay? My first kiss was given to you!"
Sable's cool, beautiful face twisted with annoyance as she huffed, "Do you want the shell or not? If not, give it back!"
Ye Li put the shell away with care and shamelessly replied, "If it's on this island, it belongs to me~"
He expected this to annoy the self-proclaimed maiden, but instead— her expression paused, and she blinked mysteriously at him. "Including me too, boss?"
'Oh? She's stepping up now?...'
Ye Li wasn't flustered like some teenage boy—he had plenty of experience handling situations like this.
"If you're willing, then of course you're included."
Without waiting for her reply, he took the sunscreen from the nearby mercenary, waved her off, and said, "You can go. I'll handle this."
The mercenary hesitated, looked at the big sister and then the boss, but ultimately stepped away obediently.
"What do you think you're doing?" Sable asked knowingly, her cheeks tinged red.
"Helping you reapply sunscreen—what else? It's sunny out, wouldn't want you getting sunburned~"
Ye Li rubbed his palms together and, without giving her a choice, began applying the lotion across her sleek, toned back.
Sable muttered inwardly: I'm not even gonna call you out, you perv!
She had the body of a super soldier—there was no way a little sunlight would ever hurt her!
"I didn't even say yes and you're already grabbing me."
The silver-haired beauty pouted while lying obediently on her front. "This is harassment~"
"I'm your boss. What's wrong with a little employee care?"
Ye Li's hands kneaded and pressed her jade-like body with expert precision, while his mouth still insisted on maintaining appearances. "You should feel honored that your boss is personally giving you a massage."
"Hmph~"
As those firm yet gentle hands moved over her back in a smooth rhythm,
Sable couldn't help but sigh in pleasure. She gave a soft hum and stopped complaining, silently enjoying the delightful sensation~
…..
After a while—
"Ah~!"
A soft yelp came from under the sunshade———
"Why are your hands massaging the front now?!"
