Chapter 41
It is demonstrated in the way he cares for his three little brothers, he would defend them in the public eye, no matter what wrongs they did.
However, in private, he had to discipline them.
When there were no outsiders around, he was a strict elder brother.
Ruan Mengmeng was still feeling slightly touched after he had defended her so firmly earlier.
To the point where she sat beside him unusually obediently and allowed him to pat her head gently and eventually, listening to him warn her with such a cold and strict tone.
She felt as if she was splashed with ice-cold water from head to toe.
“No one asked for your protection! I will handle my problem by myself. I don’t need you to order me to do things.” Ruan Mengmeng shook her chin away and struggled out of his hand.
Standing straight up, she deliberately ignored the sour feeling deep in the heart.
Without Li Junyu, she still managed to overcome many obstacles.
She did not need Li Junyu to help her transfer classes and certainly did not need the position of student council president.
Worse come to worst, she could just choose not to study here anymore. In fact, she somewhat wanted to transfer back to City No.1 High School!
“Ordering you?” The man’s brows raised slightly, a hint of menace appeared in his deep and bottomless eyes.
He looked up to the girl, his voice cold. “Alright then, I won’t bother you anymore from now on. Even if the entire school starts spreading rumors that you stole away your younger sister’s fiancé with bad intentions and that you caused your biological elder sister’s death, it will be none of my concern.”
On the way here, Ling Bei had already shared the results of the investigation with Li Junyu.
Otherwise, he would not have felt sympathy upon seeing the girl’s reddish eyes, with a pitiful look of having been wronged.
When she heard the two words “younger sister”, the standoffish nature of Ruan Mengmeng’s heart started to crack.
And when Li Junyu gently said the three words “biological elder sister”, her heart began to pound.
Almost instinctively and without hesitation, she immediately changed her mind.
“Okay, I will be obedient and follow your words, I want to enter class 1 of Year 3 and want the position of student council president as well.”
As long as she could create obstacles for Ruan Jiaojiao and snatch away the one thing she was proudest of, it wouldn’t matter whether she had to follow his instructions.
“Good, this is obedience.” Li Junyu stood up and was about to place his palm on the girl’s head as a way to commend her.
Unexpectedly, Ruan Mengmeng shifted his head away to dodge and avoid his palm.
The expected soft and nice pat was not executed.
The man’s black eagle-like eyes squinted.
“Are you angry?” Cold air engulfed their surrounding once again.
Ruan Mengmeng was stunned on the spot for around 2 seconds before gave him a smile, showing her cute dimples.
“How would I, how would I dare be angry with elder brother.” After she was done speaking, she even took the initiative to lean towards him, using her two small hands to hug the man’s waist, snuggling her head in his arms.
Looking entirely like one who was asking for spoiling and petting.
The man who usually hated touch from other women had broken many usual habits for Ruan Mengmeng today.
At least, not only does he not feel dislike for touches from her, the touches worked quite well to him.
His big palm had again landed on her shaggy head. “This is more like it,” Li Junyu said.
“Mmm,” Ruan Mengmeng voiced like she was responding.
Although she knew clearly that when she was being hugged and touched by this person, she could no longer feel a sense of protection or the breathtaking warmth.
“I will let Ling Bei arrange tuition with famous tutors. I have seen the test paper you answered, your basics are not bad but the risk-averse attitude is obvious. Don’t be like this during the next test.”
“Mm,” Ruan Mengmeng responded again, nodding her head obediently and not telling him the reason she did not answer the major question.
Whatever, it was not like he would believe it even if she had said it.
In her heart just now, the heavy trust she had for Li Junyu, dropped to the lowest.
Him now had again become the “Elder brother” that Ruan Mengmeng hated and rejected.
