As he spoke, he gently scooped her face in his hands and whispered coaxingly, "So, don't cry, alright? My dear sister, you're prettiest when you're smiling! On such an important day and in front of these many people, it's not good to have snot coming from your nose!"
A handsome man of twenty-four actually tried his best to act cute in front of her and make her laugh. A chortle escaped her mouth right away before she lightly dabbed away the tears in her eyes.
Gong Jie's gaze softened at the sight.
"Good girl! You look best when you smile. I love your smiling face!"
His sister helplessly retorted, "Stop fooling around! Why do I get the feeling that you're coaxing a child?"
"What 'coaxing a child'?"
He pouted innocently at her and then curled his lips into a smirk. "I'm coaxing my little princess!"
