“Uncle!” Qiao Mu gritted her teeth and stood at the side with her head lowered. After a while, she finally spoke in an extremely low voice. ” The woman I met outside the restaurant is my mother. ”
Qiao Mu’s sudden and straightforward explanation of the other party’s identity made Li Yan narrow his eyes.
Seeing Li Yan’s calm reaction, Qiao Mu continued, “”Actually, there’s no need to confess anything. I originally planned to stop contacting her in the future.” “Why?” Li Yan asked calmly.
My mother is a gambler and has always treated me as a money tree. The five million I borrowed from you was for her. When I saw her just now, I shook off your hand because I didn’t want her to think that I was with a rich man and ask me for money again. ‘
As she spoke, Qiao Mu raised her head and glanced at Li Yan. She raised her small hand and gently tugged at the corner of the man’s shirt. She said in a soft, fawning voice, “”Uncle, don’t ignore me.”
Hearing her explanation, the anger in Li Yan’s heart dissipated bit by bit.
This little thing had finally confessed to him!
“Come here.” Li Yan waved at Qiao Mu, and Qiao Mu obediently went forward. She wrapped her large hands around her waist and placed her on his lap.
Li Yan looked down at her. ” Do you know what it feels like to be left out? ” Qiao Mu nodded. This man was indeed vengeful.
However, what made her feel strange was why he wasn’t surprised at all when she mentioned her mother.
Just as she was thinking about it, her big hand gently rubbed against the top of her head. A domineering voice sounded from above her head. ” Don’t hide anything from me in the future. ‘
Qiao Mu paused for a moment before nodding in the end.
Li Yan lowered his eyes and looked at the little thing. His tone softened and he asked in a low voice, “Has your mother always treated you like this? ”
Qiao Mu was startled by his words, but she smiled nonchalantly. ” Mm, I’m used to it. ‘
Even though she tried her best to hide it, Li Yan could still see the sadness in her eyes. It was something he had never seen before.
This little girl had longed to live with her mother since she was young, but reality was so cruel to her!
All this while, this little thing was either arrogant or a lackey in front of her. Even when she was bullied and unhappy, she had never been as upset as she was now.
She thought about how she had been bullied by her stepmother and used by her biological mother as a tool to earn money all these years. But where was he every time she was sad?
Back then, he had mistakenly thought that she was using him to get close to her. That was why, over the years, whenever he thought of her, he would treat it as a punishment for her despite knowing that she was not doing well. He righteously punished her for getting close to him back then!
Li Yan’s heart twitched violently, and he tightened his grip on the little woman’s arm. His low and hoarse voice sounded slowly, as if he was making a promise. ” Qiao Mu, from now on, you have me. ‘
From now on, you have me…
This sentence was as heavy as an oath, causing Qiao Mu to be completely stunned.
Stunned, she met his gaze, and her heart started beating faster.
Even ten years ago, when he was so good to her, he had never made a promise.
Later on, she thought that his purpose was to use her, so why would he make those unrealistic promises to her?
However, this was the first time he had spoken to her so formally.
From now on, she had him!
Even if Qiao Mu wanted to treat his words as a joke, her heart still sank uncontrollably..
