Chapter 13

First Time Being Carried Like A Princess

“I…” Ruan Mengmeng’s breath caught in her throat.

She lowered her head to hide the disappointment in her eyes. “No, I don’t need to see her. I don’t want to…”

If her mother had not died, why did she not return to retrieve her sister and herself? Did her mother not know that her departure meant Qin Fang would immediately join the family?

All these years, she had relied solely on her older sister, Ruan Shishi.

Her sister’s strength was incomparable.

If it were not for that, the sisters would have long since been eaten whole by that woman.

While the two of them were helpless and alone, their mother had been living the high life in the Li Family.

It would be a lie to say that she did not miss her mother.

However, Ruan Mengmeng’s heart was filled with a sense of rejection right now.

It felt as though she would be doing Ruan Shishi dirty if she went to see their mother now.

If she made up with her mother now, what would all of her sister’s suffering over the past eleven years come to?

Ruan Mengmeng denied the desire in her heart and stood up, walking toward the door.

Just as she had taken one step forward, though…

“Ahh—” The girl’s soft cry rang out in the study.

“Wha… What are you doing? Let me down!” Ruan Mengmeng was shocked out of her senses. That ice-cold seemingly-heartless man had actually hugged her from behind.

“I’m warning you, you’d better let me go now. Or else, I…”

She was so physically strong that she was sure she could scare him with a threat.

If he was not Li Junyu, someone her Ruan Family could not offend, she guaranteed she would forcefully break his arm.

Unfortunately, her warning fell completely on deaf ears.

He held Ruan Mengmeng’s waist from behind and bent down slightly, lifting her up horizontally.

It was a princess carry!

F*ck, was he nuts?!

Even if he was inhumanly handsome, he should not flirt with her so boldly!

Ruan Mengmeng said, “No, don’t! Let go, put me down…”

However, her little palm-sized face had silently turned red.

She swore on heaven and earth that it was not because she was fantasizing about this glacier of a man.

It was… It was just that she was such a sucker for good looks.

That handsome man was insanely beautiful, and his deep stern features were magnified before her very eyes.

Mama mia, oh my my…

They were so close to each other that her heart skipped wildly, and even her breath was out of whack.

“W-What are you trying to do?” Ruan Mengmeng sounded angry, but her body remained obediently curled in his embrace.

The tears that had been fluttering on her lashes earlier had now become a sparkling gleam in her eyes.

Li Junyu lowered his cold eyes and looked at her flushed little face with an inquisitive gaze.

Just as he expected, she was exactly like the investigation report said.

She was just a careless, simple-minded, straightforward little girl.

“What a pain…”

He muttered those three words coldly, but his hoarse voice was extremely sexy.

Ruan Mengmeng suspected that his voice was about to impregnate her ears.

Before she could react, Li Junyu had already carried her away.

“W-Where are you taking me? P-Put me down, I can walk on my own…” Second Miss Ruan was known for her aggression, but right now, she was basically a tame little pet.

She never stopped whining, but her little head leaned on the man’s broad chest obediently.

Her little face was rosy red, and her pretty starry eyes sparkled with moisture.

She did not like Li Junyu, and she was not interested in this man at all, but… All her life, no man had ever carried her like a princess before.

Her little face even took things one step further, rubbing against the man’s firm chest.

Li Junyu kept his expression cold as he purposely ignored the girl ‘struggling’ in his embrace.

He carried Ruan Mengmeng, who was dressed in a princess grown, down the corridor, past the tall arches, and through the magnificent grand hall.

As all of the Li Family’s maids and servants stared in shock, he carried Ruan Mengmeng to the third floor of the mansion, stopping in front of a large tightly-shut door covered with engravings.
