Yan Chi curled the corners of her lips, not seeming to be smiling, but her eyes were gentle.

"Why not? You belong to me. I'm there, and I can handle whatever trouble you make."

Ye Wanting didn't want to be nervous, but after hearing his caring words, she couldn't help it. She didn't want to bite her lip at first, but her heart was suddenly touched and she bit it back.

"I……"

"I'm sorry, it was my brother who was inappropriate."

Yan Chi didn't take his hand away. He was still gently stroking her hair. The warmth of his palms flowed continuously to her body against her forehead. She could only barely see his Adam's apple rolling when he spoke.

"Brother Chi..."

"I have dealt with all those who bullied you. I will never appear in front of you again. Whenever I bring you to an occasion, I will not bring strangers with me. Don't worry."

He was so gentle, really so gentle, like coaxing a child, every word he said was to soothe her emotions.

Ye Wanting originally wanted to endure it, but she really couldn't help it. After all, she had carried too much since she was a child. Before she met Yan Chi Nan Jiaojiao and others, her mother occupied the majority of her world.

But she has never been the one who is favored.

But Yan Chi gave her all the favoritism he could give!
Ye Wanting couldn't hold it in. Her eyes became misty and hot, and then she realized that she was crying.

At first, she just bit her lips and cried softly. The suppressed sound rushed out of her throat. No matter how hard she bit her lips, she couldn't hold it back. She started to whimper. Then, slowly, her shoulders twitched and she couldn't hold it back anymore. Even to her own ears, her crying was so obvious.

Yan Chi didn't say anything, but he didn't take his hand away. He moved his thumb to her forehead and gently pressed it down along the center of her eyebrows.

"Cry, just cry."

Ye Wanting couldn't bear it any longer and burst into tears, as if she wanted to cry out all the grievances that she hadn't been able to hide.

Yan Chi smiled. She was willing to cry, which meant that at least she was not on guard against him.

It's just that the little girl cried so many tears and couldn't stop. He originally wanted to wait for her to vent her emotions, but he was afraid that she would choke herself from crying for so long, so he walked over and sat next to her, patting her back to comfort her.

There was no coaxing, and nothing else said.

After a while, Ye Wanting stopped crying, "I'm much better, thank you Brother Chi."

"Why are you being polite to me?"

The tissue in her hand was soaked with tears. Yan Chi placed a finger on her knuckles. After she let go, he took the tissue away, pulled out a clean one and was about to put it in her hand. After hesitating for a moment, he wiped her tears himself.

"You can cry anytime you want in front of me. I won't laugh at you. But if you encounter this kind of situation next time, whether I'm here or not, and whether I ask or not, just tell me directly."

Yan Chi lowered his eyes, looked at her red face from crying, and chuckled: "I'm not afraid of offending anyone, I can still protect you."

Ye Wanting nodded vigorously.

Yan Chi wiped the tears from her face, stuffed a tissue into her hand, and then stood up. "Okay, go to bed early. I'm leaving first."

Ye Wanting's eyes followed him as he stood up, and she happened to see the clock on the wall. Without thinking, she grabbed his clothes and waited for the man to look down. She forgot where the sudden impulse came from.

Pursing her lips, she said, "Brother Chi, have you been drinking? Do you want to drive?"

"I drank half a cup, what's wrong?" (End of this chapter)
