FULL NOVELXO Chapter 55
A Rare Coaxing
The man’s big palm rested on the tender back of the girl and gently stroked it, comforting the little girl in his arms.
The voice of the mature man was low and deep. Although it was still cold, it had the bizarre ability to calm others.
He had never consoled anyone before and was always cold to his few younger brothers. He never imagined that one day, he would have to console a girl like he was now.
The first young master’s comforting was not enough, and he could only robotically repeat a few sentences.
“It’s okay, whatever it is, you have me.”
Thin lips opened slightly, and a deep and irresistible voice came, “Big brother will help you deal with them.”
Being soothed by such a deep magnetic voice for a while, Ruan Mengmeng slowly raised her head to look at him.
The pitiful little face was wet from all the tears, making her look like a kitten. Those almond eyes of hers that were soaked in tears were surprisingly bright.
When looking up at him, his silhouette could be seen reflected in her pupils as if he was the only one in the whole world. With such eyes, Li Junyu unconsciously tightened his lungs.
“My father... Does my father really not want me anymore?” Ruan Mengmeng raised her head, her eyes gleaming, her white teeth biting down on her pink lips.
The little crying face was full of helplessness and anxiety after being exposed to a harsh reality. The man’s eyes noticeably darkened.
For a moment, his mind went back to the thought of his two younger brothers who had lost their mother when they were young.
“Don’t be afraid, it won’t happen.” The big palm rubbed her shaggy head, gently holding her in his arms in a bid to comfort her.
Li Junyu’s most prominent quality was that he had always been the brain behind calculating investment mergers and acquisitions, but this time, he must analyze her family’s contradictions. contemporary romance
“The person who hit you just now has a really bad relationship with you.” He made a statement instead of a question.
“Yes, she’s my stepmother’s mother. She keeps saying that she is my grandmother, but the old fart is not... My grandmother’s surname is Miao, and she lives in the old house at 185 Jiashan Road. It’s not her at all!”
The little cat seemed to be regaining her spirit. She was not as depressed as before and was complaining about someone. Her voice was much louder.
Li Junyu’s inky pupils contracted slightly, massaging her again, and going along with whatever she said.
He intended to ignore the fact that the little cat would soon become a lady of the Li family for now as she spoke freely with swear words.
“So, what she said was likely to deliberately provoke you. You should not allow yourself to be made angry by such people.”
“...”
Ruan Mengmeng was stunned. Hearing Li Junyu’s take, it seemed to be the case.
Her small head snuggled deeper into his warm hug.
Ruan Mengmeng did not even realize it herself that she had unconsciously started to snuggle into Li Junyu’s body, hoping to find warmth in his embrace.
The sense of security emanating from the man was attracting her unwittingly.
“But... what she said might not necessarily be false.” The girl’s voice was dull with a kind of timidity that she rarely showed.
“My father hasn’t contacted me for a long time. The old woman was right. My father really doesn’t want me... ever since I left, he has never once called me.”
Ruan Mengmeng had been pretending not to care when in fact, she cared very much.
Although her mother was not dead, and her father has remarried to her stepmother furthermore seem to have alienated her. But during her long, long life the three people she cared about most were her sister, father, and grandfather.
She had never cared about outsiders’ opinions or even her grandmother’s and aunt’s prejudice toward her because those people were not important to her.
Alas, she really cared about her dad.
As her sister had said, she was a stubborn girl. The kind of person who was not easily hurt by outsiders, but often easily bruised by those who they really cared about.
