Hearing Zhao Jinxing's words, Qin Yu heart ached for the girl in front of him.
At this age, she was supposed to be the Princess of her family. Seeing her be so cautious not to trouble others, he was full of heartache. Her eyes were filled with anticipation and fear, and he wanted nothing more than to give her the whole world.
Putting down the cup, Qin Yu held her hand and said gently, "Xingxing, remember. You will never be trouble to me, ever."
"Qin Yu..." Zhao Jinxing's was extremely touched.
How did a few sentences from him make her want to cry? She was never like this before she met him.
"Silly girl!"
Qin Yu got up, walked around the table, and walked up to Zhao Jinxing. He reached out and pulled her into his arms, gently stroking her long hair. His steady voice was filled with a comforting warmth.
"You don't have to be so strong in front of me. Let me spoil you and protect you."
Zhao Jinxing hugged him tightly and pouted after a long while. "What if I do something bad? Will you still spoil me like this?"
Qin Yu curled his lips. "You won't do anything bad."
After a pause, he continued, "Even if you do, you won't be the bad guy to me."
What he said was unreasonable and arrogant, but Zhao Jinxing was touched by his love!
Who wouldn't want someone who would always stand by their side unconditionally, believe in them, and protect them!
"Qin Yu, did you know that Zhao Hong almost got into a fight with a few directors today? He wanted to threaten me with his resignation, but I was able to counter him."
Hearing this, Qin Yu smiled and gently patted her hair. "You are so smart."
"I even made Zhao Hong comply to personally nominate me as the new CEO of Zhenting Group. At the same time, I also asked him to marry Zhao Jinxiu to the Huo Family!"
After saying this, Zhao Jinxing raised her head and stared at Qin Yu without moving. She anticipated his response.
"When my grandfather was alive, my family had a marriage agreement with the young master of the Huo family. However, when he got into a car accident, not only was he disfigured, but he was also crippled. Grandfather felt really sorry for me and couldn't bear to let me marry him. When Zhao Jinxiu wanted to officially become part of our family, Zhao Hong made an agreement with my grandfather."
"My grandfather gave Zhao Jinxiu shares of Zhenting Group in exchange for her to marry into the Huo family in my place. After Zhao Jinxiu got her shares, she took advantage of my grandfather's death to go back on her word. She deliberately fell down the stairs and injured herself. She even accused me of pushing her and wanted to force me to marry the young master of the Huo family in her place!"
At this moment, Qin Yu finally understood why Zhao Jinxing was willing to propose to someone she had only met once in the cemetery.
His little girl had suffered so much injustice.
"Zhao Jinxiu took shares but went back on her word. She's horrible!"
Zhao Jinxing's face was cold. "Whatever. She trusts and idolizes her father the most, yet he betrayed her just because of shares. It's her karma!"
"Did you get hurt?" Qin Yu half-squatted down and looked up at Zhao Jinxing.
"What?" Zhao Jinxing didn't react for a moment.
"Did she hurt you when she pretended to fall down the stairs?" Qin Yu asked again.
Zhao Jinxing pursed her lips and pulled up her right sleeve halfway. On her pale arm, three scratches were particularly eye-catching.
It had already been a day, but the red scratches still hadn't disappeared. It was obvious how painful it was.
Qin Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, and a huge storm brewed in his dark eyes. He gently caressed the marks and asked with a pained expression, "Does it still hurt?"
