Chapter 224 - Knowing Everything About Him (2/2)
”Aren't you the least bit affected by all that? How can you say it all so nonchalantly? You...H-How could they...”
”Hey, are you crying?” Jun Zixuan was stunned, ”What happened? Why would you cry out of nowhere?”
”What do you think?” She sniffed and rubbed her face on shoulder, properly staining his white shirt with her tears, ”I can't....watch a romantic movie without crying. How do you expect me to take this when you were treated so harshly?”
”Why are you such a crybaby?” He helplessly stroked her back and hugged her tightly, still finding it difficult to believe that she was crying for him, ”It isn't that serious, you know?”
”I don't know anything,” She buried her face in his neck, ”It would have been good if I was there with you. I would have thrown stones at anyone who tried to bully you.”
Jun Zixuan could barely contain his laughter, ”When I was 3 years old, you must be 1. How would you have done that? Silly!”
'That's because when you were 3, I was also 3,' She thought to herself as her gaze darkened.
Perhaps because of what he went through, he became the man he was today.
He had everything under his control.
One snap of his fingers and anything he desired would be at his feet. The force of Eminence was certainly not to be underestimated.
But...
She paused, ”And what was about that card yesterday?” Although she was aware of what it was but she was curious as to why and how did he get it.
”First you ask me about all these unimportant things, then you start crying. What's the benefit in it?” He raised an eyebrow.
”I want to know everything about you,” She rubbed her eyes, regretting the way she bawled earlier. But then, she was pretty much experienced in such embarrassing situations and that had made her thick skinned.
He pressed a kiss on her forehead, ”The crystal card is the type of black card that is only availed to the Amaranthine Royalty. It was given to me by him.''
”Him? Your father?”
”Yes. When I turned 10, I received that crystal card from his subordinate. It was given to me for allowances. I did not want to keep it but he might have gone to look for Mom and I did not want to upset her further after her parents' death. That's why I accepted it. He used to sent me $25k every month....”
”What happened now?”
”...Well, I intended to return it to him but he thought I wanted more money so he doubled the amount saying that I didn't deserve more than that.”
She pursed her lips. Jun Zixuan was richer than almost 10 such royal families.
What exactly do they think of themselves?
...
”There is full privacy here. How do you like it, Ma'am?”
”It's good. But what about that?” Mia pointed her chin towards the glass partition on the opposite side.
