42 I Will Always Protect You (1/2)

As Lei XInyi saw Li Yuan she threw herself at him and started sobbing and hiccupping on his chest and circled her arms around his waist a little too intimately, ”L…. Li Yuan, everyone is so….sniff…..bad. I jus….Just wanted to see y… You bef…before I left. I….I will ne….never come back….sob sob”

Jiang Qinqin and Chen Shu were shocked. Just who was this girl. Since when CEO Li permit people to call him with his initial and why was the girl complaining like a lover. Was she… No, no! She can't be.

Rubbing her by her waist, he was caressing her hairs but hearing her, he lost his calm. He liked her depending on him. He liked her leaning on him, he felt authoritative when she leaned on him for protection.

But he couldn't even protect her on his own territory! The thought infuriated him to no ends. At the moment the whole room turned ice cold as Li Yuan looked at his Assistant and growled, ”Who did this, I want each and everyone name.”

Lei Xinyi who was in Li Yuan's arm, started shaking from fear and tried to pull away but as Li Yuan felt her pulling away he pushed her even closer in his embrace. Lei Xinyi felt scared for her life, the aura the man was emanating was murderous.

Assistant Ji was sweating hard his Boss hardly ever lost his temper but when he did, he spared none and caused atrocities till his demon calmed. Jiang Qinqin and Chen Shu dropped on their knees begging and Fan Bingbing was shivering from fright in a corner.

Lei Xinyi had the urge to smirk but was too afraid to try anything but she had to do something she couldn't let him deal with them, They were hers to torture.

Tugging on Li Yuan sleeves she got the attention of Li Yuan who was glaring as an Emperor going to declare the orders for cutting off their heads.

As Li Yuan looked at Lei Xinyi whose cries had subsided, the look in his softened, she whispered that only Li Yuan could hear her, ”Li Yuan, I..I don't want this…” As she let those words out the temperature dropped around them further and the look in Li Yuan eyed hardened.

She still want to act like a white lotus in front of him. He wanted her to drop her façade in front of him by her own and to trust him. But she still want to act! She didn't trust him to let herself loose! Li yuan felt his temper further flare.

As Lei Xinyi felt the atmosphere getting further tense and Li Yuan embrace getting hurtful, she abruptly cupped his face with her shaking hands and corrected in a whisper, ”D..Don't misunderstand. I want to fight for myself o..on my own. I don't want you to eliminate all my problems I..I want to solve them.”

For a moment the look in Li Yuan softened then again hardened, then he spoke with rage, and the whole secretariat heard him, ”Look what they did to you! Is this how you are fighting for yourself. What if the next time they do something even worse….”

”You will save me. As you did now…..” Lei Xinyi cut him off. She herself didn't know where this came from but she abruptly averted her eyes after saying that and tried retracted her hand from his face.
