It was just a scolding for her to hear, a veiled warning for her to stay honest and behave.
Leh Ying looked at the man pressing down on her, her voice gentle, "How long can someone like me take delight in your power and influence?"
Xu Jingxi's arms tightened around her slender waist, "What kind of person are you?"
What kind, she couldn't exactly say.
"Both silly and stupid, always getting myself dirty when painting, got tricked the first time I bought cigarettes, and had to have Mr. Xu get the money back for me."
As she spoke, her voice grew less confident.
Xu Jingxi couldn't help but laugh, "So you were tricked, so what? I'm here to protect you, aren't I?"
His words tonight, they had a slightly husky tone, slow, gentle, and fatally soft. She listened in a daze, the spoiling not related to love.
Enthralled by tonight, just for those three words 'Xu Jingxi', even if she faced any consequences in the future, she accepted them.
