Chapter 55

A Rare Coaxing

The mans 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 masters comforting was not enough, and he could only robotically repeat a few sentences.

Its 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 mans 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.

Dont be afraid, it wont happen. The big palm rubbed her s.h.a.ggy head, gently holding her in his arms in a bid to comfort her.

Li Junyus most prominent quality was that he had always been the brain behind calculating investment mergers and acquisitions, but this time, he must a.n.a.lyze her familys contradictions.

The person who hit you just now has a really bad relations.h.i.+p with you. He made a statement instead of a question.

Yes, shes my stepmothers mother. She keeps saying that she is my grandmother, but the old fart is not My grandmothers surname is Miao, and she lives in the old house at 185 Jiashan Road. Its 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 Junyus inky pupils contracted slightly, ma.s.saging 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 Junyus 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 Junyus 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 girls voice was dull with a kind of timidity that she rarely showed.

My father hasnt contacted me for a long time. The old woman was right. My father really doesnt 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 grandmothers and aunts 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.
