Although the movements were somewhat rough, the arms around her waist were very tight, carrying an undeniable sense of possession and protection.
"Why are you crying?"
His voice was still harsh, but it had softened considerably, even carrying a hint of clumsy coaxing:
"Now you're scared? Now you feel disgusted? Where were you before?"
As he spoke, he raised his hand and used his fingertips to wipe away the tears on her cheeks.
"How was I supposed to know it would turn out like this..."
Su Qianqian buried her face in the crook of his neck, the familiar coolness of his breath reassuring her, and she sobbed softly as she tried to explain.
"Brother Wang said the role was great, so I thought I'd give it a try."
"Who knew, who knew they were so bad."
As she spoke, she remembered that greasy hand, and her body involuntarily trembled.
Feeling the little body trembling in his arms, Gu Chengyu's heart melted completely.
He tightened his arms around her, resting his chin on the top of her soft hair, his voice low and menacing yet full of affection: "You're so stupid!"
"If something like this happens again, tell me immediately, understand?"
"I won't go to any dinner party without my approval, not even if the Heavenly King himself invites me!"
"Mmm," Su Qianqian responded muffledly in his arms, her voice nasal.
"besides……"
Gu Chengyu cupped her small face in his hands, forcing her to look at him through her teary eyes, his gaze incredibly earnest.
"Remember, you are Gu Chengyu's woman."
"In S City, S Country, and even the whole world, there are only situations you don't want to attend, not situations where you'll suffer grievances even if you do attend."
"If anyone dares to make you even the slightest bit uncomfortable, I'll make them regret ever being born, understand?"
His words were domineering and arrogant.
Looking at the earnestness and protectiveness in his eyes, Su Qianqian sniffed, tears still clinging to her face, but she obediently nodded, her voice soft and sweet, filled with dependence:
"I understand, Ayu is the best~"
"Ayu, don't be angry, okay?"
"I get scared when you're angry."
Each "A-Yu" was uttered in a sweet and gentle voice.
Even the words that come out of her small mouth are pleasant to hear.
He is definitely the best.
Besides him, who else could pamper and protect her like this?
Gu Chengyu's lips unconsciously curled up at the corners of his mouth, coaxed by the little girl's two words.
He lowered his head, with a mixture of punishment and pity, and took her delicate little mouth into his mouth.
"You're the best at sweet-talking people, I can't do anything about it."
As for teaching her a lesson?
Let's forget about it for now.
What else could he do with this spoiled yet audacious little girl in his arms but spoil and protect her?
Besides, if someone dares to make a move on her, it only means that her man isn't strong enough.
He should reflect on where he went wrong, which led to this situation. (This chapter has been read. Please click to continue reading the next chapter!)
