Chapter 10
"Does it still hurt?"
In the small bedroom upstairs, Li Yue half-crouched in front of Niannian, carefully applying medicine to the little girl with a cotton swab.
"It hurts so much!"
Niannian looked at Li Yue with tears in her eyes, "Mommy, it hurts."
"Shh."
Li Yue frowned, raised her hand and blocked the little guy's mouth with her index finger, "Don't talk nonsense."
"I am your servant, call me auntie."
"oh."
Niannian wiped away her tears, her big, clear eyes full of grievances, "Little aunt, this is the first time that Niannian has been beaten like this since she was born."
Her little body was twitching from crying.
Li Yue's nose felt sore with distress.
It's all her fault.
She shouldn't have left Niannian here just to make Li Jingchuan less suspicious of her.
Taking a deep breath, she held Nian Nian's hand, her eyes filled with self-blame.
"It's not your fault, it's all that bad woman."
Niannian pursed her lips and said, "I hate her so much."
"Don't talk like that in the future."
The woman pursed her lips and spoke in a low voice, "She is the person your daddy likes. If you have a conflict with her, it will only make your daddy very embarrassed, so stay away from her in the future, remember?"
Gu Xiaorou is an adult, and Li Jingchuan has pampered her over the years.
And Niannian is just a little daughter who has just returned to Li Jingchuan.
If you can't afford to offend him, then hide away.
"Well, I remember it. When I see her later, I will walk around her!"
"good."
Taking a deep breath, Li Yue continued to apply medicine to Nian Nian.
In the corridor outside the door, a tall man stood there, listening to their conversation through the ajar door, his eyes gradually darkening.
Returning to the study, the man calmly ordered, "Bai Luo, continue to find a suitable maid for the little princess."
Bai Luo was startled, "Sir, that Li Yue..."
Li Jingchuan raised his eyes and glanced at him coldly, "I won't stay for a woman who comes with a purpose."
"yes!"
...
After taking the medicine, Nian Nian lay on the bed and fell asleep.
After Li Yue settled her down, she returned to the servant's room that Bai Luo arranged for her.
The maid's room is clean and tidy. Although the space is not big, it is well-equipped despite its small size.
She took off her clothes and turned her back to the mirror to check the injuries on her back.
Gu Xiaorou's previous kick on her body used a lot of force, but it just hit her old injury.
Looking at the bruised back in the mirror, Li Yue sighed, squatted down and looked for medicine in the medicine box.
When Li Jingchuan pushed the door open and came in, what he saw was a woman squatting on the ground wearing only her underwear, with her back to him.
Her skin was whiter than snow, which formed a sharp contrast with the bruises on her waist caused by Gu Xiaorou's kick.
The man frowned, "What are you doing?"
The sudden male voice made Li Yue's body shudder.
She stood up instinctively and turned to look at him, "Mr. Li."
The woman only wore a white underwear on her upper body, and her exquisite figure was very eye-catching.
Li Yue's face was already sculpted to be extremely beautiful, and now she looks so graceful.
"It's already this time and you still want to seduce me?"
He narrowed his eyes and leaned against the door with his hands folded across his chest, eyes full of contempt.
Only then did Li Yue realize that there was something wrong with her clothes.
She quickly pulled the coat aside and put it on her body, "Mr. Li, what do you want from me?"
The man looked at the red and swollen slap marks on her face and asked, "Does it still hurt?"
Following the man's gaze, Li Yue raised her hand and touched her face.
Before, she was only looking at the injury on her waist, but she forgot that she also received a solid slap from Gu Xiaorou, and now her face is still a little swollen.
She smiled and said, "It doesn't hurt anymore."
The man raised his legs, strode into her room, and sat down by the bed.
"Why were you recording just now?"
He looked at her with cold eyes, "Ordinary people wouldn't think of recording anytime and anywhere."
This man's alertness is still so high.
Li Yue narrowed her eyes slightly, but she still had a humble smile on her face, "When we were at my house before, Assistant Bai Luo was discussing my future salary and remuneration."
"I was afraid that he would not honor some of his verbal promises in the future, so I secretly recorded it."
"I didn't expect that later, Mr. Li, you would receive a call that Miss Niannian was in trouble, so I followed you over. The recording was always on and I forgot to turn it off."
"That's it?"
The man walked up to her, staring at her with his dark eyes, as if he could penetrate all her thoughts.
Li Yue felt uncomfortable looking at him. She turned her face away, not daring to look at him, "Of course it's just like that."
"I don't like scheming women."
Li Jingchuan raised his hand and clasped her chin, forcing her to look at him, "Keep all your little thoughts in my heart."
"I can make you live well in Blue Bay, but I can also make you unable to live in Rongcheng."
After saying that, he coldly shook her off and strode away.
Li Yue stood there, watching his back disappear at the end of the corridor.
Cold sweat soaked her back.
At this time, the mobile phone rang.
Li Yue finally came to her senses and closed the door.
The call was from Zuo Anan.
"Yunyu's get out of class is over. I sent him back. Are you not at home?"
"An'an."
Li Yue took a deep breath, "I want to stay here with Nian Nian tonight. Can you help me look after Yun Yu and take him out to eat?"
"good!"
After hanging up the phone, Zuo Anan raised his hand and rubbed Yun Yu's little head, "Let's go, godmother will take you to eat delicious food!"
Yun Yu pursed her lips and avoided Zuo An'an's hand, "Isn't Mommy coming back tonight?"
Zuo Anan nodded, "It should be."
"You follow your godmother tonight and stay at her house!"
Yun Yu curled his lips and sighed lightly, "I'm so pitiful."
"Little brat, how can you call me pitiful if you live with me?"
Zuo Anan rolled his eyes and took Yunyu to a nearby shopping mall.
After simply buying Dianyunyu's personal items, Zuo Anan took him to the restaurant on the top floor of the mall for dinner.
As soon as he entered the restaurant, Yun Yu saw Gu Xiaorou sitting in the corner.
He pursed his lips and directly pulled Zuo An'an to sit down not far from Gu Xiaorou.
Gu Xiaorou was talking on the phone through gritted teeth. From Yunyu's position, her voice could be clearly heard.
"I really didn't expect that in that car accident, not only did she survive, but she also gave birth to a daughter."
"Now she is sending her daughter back just to declare her sovereignty to me, to tell me that she is not dead, and to show off that she has a daughter!"
"Since she won't come back on her own, she is willing to send her daughter over to be a pawn. If I don't kill that little bastard, how can I be worthy of her?"
"That little bastard, I slapped her today. It really gave her an advantage!"
Yun Yu's hand holding the menu paused slightly, and a hint of coldness flashed in his big dark eyes.
Did Nian Nian get beaten today?
No wonder Mommy stayed with her and didn't come back at night.
The little guy pursed his lips and silently put his hand into his pocket.
