My Dragon Baby and Billionaire Husband-Chapter 754 Cinematic Proposal 9

The female protagonist, infuriated, growled at the figure below, "How could you do this?"

The young man ignored the female protagonist. After jumping into the sea, he desperately swam towards the nearest inflatable boat. He clambered aboard without a second thought and sat there, soaked through, without even glancing back at the young woman who continued to shout at him.

The female protagonist was very angry. Without the young man, there was no one left in the room with any fighting capability. If they encountered any trouble now, they were certainly doomed.

At that moment, the old lady walked up to the female protagonist, shook her head, and said, "Girl, let it go. Even if he had stayed, he wouldn’t have protected us if real danger came. It’s better that such a person left."

As the female protagonist pondered this, suddenly, PLOP! PLOP! Things began to fall into the water one after another.

Ye Siyuan looked out, and her scalp tingled with fear.

They were zombies.

Zombies were leaping into the sea like rain, frantically chasing after the inflatable boats on the water’s surface.

The scene was too terrifying.

Many who had climbed onto the inflatable boats, thinking they could escape, were overwhelmed and attacked by swarming zombies. One by one, the inflatable boats were capsized by the throngs of zombies, and immediately after, those on board were bitten.

If she hadn’t covered her mouth, Ye Siyuan would have almost screamed out loud.

The female protagonist stared fixedly at the young man who had jumped through the window. She witnessed the entire process: the inflatable boat he was on capsized, he jumped into the water to escape, and then five swarming zombies bit him, turning him into one of them.

In that instant, her face turned pale. She no longer cared to blame the young man; instead, she felt sorry for him.

The old lady saw the same horrific scene. She brought her hands together and mumbled something, as if she was praying to the heavens.

Ye Siyuan lowered her head and told Ye Jingzhe, "What do we do now? The sea is no longer safe. Even if your uncle finds an inflatable boat, the moment we hit the water, it’ll be a living hell."

Ye Siyuan suddenly felt at a loss. She didn’t know if Si Lisao was aware that the sea could be even more dangerous than the ship. What if he didn’t know and left the cruise ship on an inflatable boat recklessly? What kind of dire straits would he face then?

The old man came over, putting his arm around the old lady’s shoulder. Gazing at the sea in deep thought, he said, "It seems we can only stay on the cruise ship and wait for the rescue team to arrive. We’ve done all we can; now it’s in God’s hands."

The old lady nestled against the old man. She looked up at him, and they exchanged a smile. "As long as I’m with you, no matter what happens, I’m not afraid. We’ll never be apart again."

By this time, there were no survivors left on the sea. The zombies, floating on the water, once again targeted the cruise ship, climbing up in waves.

The female protagonist was terrified; the windows of their room had already been smashed by the young man. If the zombies climbing up decided to come through the broken window, the consequences would be unthinkable.

Dragging her injured leg, the female protagonist shouted, "Grandpa, Grandma, we have to leave this theater right now!"

Ye Siyuan gripped Ye Jingzhe’s hand, not daring to delay even a moment, and said, "Let’s go!"

The old couple supported each other.

As soon as they opened the door, they saw the fat uncle, the male protagonist, and Si Lisao appear at the doorway.

Upon seeing Ye Siyuan, Si Lisao scooped her up in his arms.

Ye Siyuan wrapped her arms around Si Lisao’s neck to keep from falling and said, "The windows in the theater are broken. Zombies will climb up soon. It’s not safe here anymore; we’ve decided to leave."

The female protagonist was also explaining to the male protagonist.

Upon seeing this, the fat uncle immediately said, "Follow me."

The female protagonist was carried on the male protagonist’s back. She lay on his back and asked, "It’s really lucky that you didn’t get an inflatable boat. Those who tried to leave on inflatable boats just now have all been assimilated by zombies at sea."

The male protagonist didn’t explain.

In fact, they had obtained an inflatable boat. But as soon as they got it, they saw zombies jumping into the sea one by one. Realizing the sea was unsafe, they had no choice but to abandon the boat and come back.

Si Lisao said to Ye Siyuan, "Although the sea route is no longer viable, there’s a helicopter on the top level of this ship."

Ye Siyuan was overjoyed. "Really? Then aren’t we saved?"

Si Lisao nodded. "Now let’s head to the top level of the cruise ship."

"That doesn’t make sense, though. If there was a helicopter, it would have been seized by people trying to escape long ago. How could it still be available now?"

Si Lisao stated, "No one can fly it."

"Uh..." Ye Siyuan responded. She then felt even more profoundly the importance of learning additional skills.

She said, "I know how to fly it, but that doesn’t seem to help. You knowing how doesn’t help either. Who else here can fly it?"

"The male protagonist can fly it," Si Lisao said.

"That’s great." Ye Siyuan breathed a sigh of relief.

She looked down at Ye Jingzhe, who was closely following, and said, "Little Jingzhe, you must learn more skills. Having more skills will make you more appealing to girls. Being reliable at critical moments is the ultimate secret weapon for a little man to find a wife."

Ye Jingzhe, the Little Bingshan, pursed his cold lips. "I don’t want to get married."

"What? What are you thinking?"

Ye Siyuan knew that usually, if she wanted Xiaobai to do something, using the prospect of getting a wife in the future as motivation would make him very attentive. However, this tactic didn’t work with Ye Jingzhe, the Little Bingshan.

At such a young age, he had no concept of or interest in getting married.

He asked, "Why should I get married?"

"Uh, that question is for your uncle."

Ye Siyuan deliberately passed the challenging question to Si Lisao, who, after careful consideration, looked at Ye Jingzhe and said, "Life is too solitary. I want a girl to chatter by my ear, sharing the trivial matters of daily life with me—eating, drinking, bodily functions, all the little things. It might seem boring, but it’s actually quite interesting. It can help relax the tension from work."

Ye Siyuan was flabbergasted. "Is it that simple? Am I valuable to you just because I chatter away?"

Ye Jingzhe, the Little Bingshan, furrowed his brow. "I don’t like too much noise. Gu Shurong is already noisy enough."

He didn’t like the idea of finding someone even noisier.

Si Lisao shrugged indifferently, saying, "You don’t need to worry about this question for now. One day, you’ll meet a girl and want to spend your life with her. If it’s her, the idea of marriage will suddenly seem very attractive. Then you’ll understand why someone would want to get married."

Ye Jingzhe, the Little Bingshan, didn’t quite understand for the time being.

After Si Lisao responded to his nephew’s questions, he turned to the discontented Ye Siyuan and said, "Before I met you, I was like Jingzhe; not very interested in marriage. But after meeting you, I found marriage quite appealing. I wanted to give you a home. It’s as simple as that."

There weren’t many reasons. He just felt that if marriage was a Fortress City and she lived within it, he wouldn’t mind pushing open that door and entering. Even if others more dramatically called marriage a grave, it wouldn’t matter. If she was in that grave, it didn’t seem so scary after all. That was his reason for wanting to get married.
