Chapter 36
With Big Bro Doting Over Her
On the way to school, Li Junyu had already made his decision—he would confront Ruan Mengmeng, who was currently full of examination-induced stress and make her serve a harsh punishment.
Initially, his purpose of going to school was none other than to confront her.
Yet unexpectedly, the moment he reached his destination, he was welcomed with a crushing embrace from the young girl.
As Ruan Mengmeng’s small hands reached around him, all of the man’s back muscles tensed.
However, unlike his previous encounters with overly eager women trying to win him over by throwing themselves at him, he did not kick her away in reflex as he usually would.
Instead, after a momentary pause, Li Junyu’s huge palm had unconsciously landed on the young lady’s fragile back—something that rarely happened—and began to pat her gently.
“Who upset you? Tell me everything. You can take your time; there’s no rush.” Li Junyu’s signature husky voice was tinged with cold austerity.
As he held Ruan Mengmeng, he lifted his cold gaze slightly to look at Ye Feng and the rest of the gang standing behind her.
A glance was all that was needed. The powerful intimidation behind it was sufficient enough to make the three members of the school council freeze like statues.
They were still students, after all. No matter how arrogant they acted in school, they had yet to be met with real power.
There was nothing they could do to stop their legs from turning into jelly. Everyone was speechless.
“Sob, they’re accusing me of beating people up… That’s not true… I… I’m a girl. How could I be capable of bullying six boys?” Ruan Mengmeng sniffed and sobbed, nestling her head into Li Junyu’s chest.
As though she was truly a weak and delicate young girl.
“They look down on me because I just transferred from the City’s First High School. They accused me of so many things on the first day I transferred over. I don’t want to study here anymore; I don’t deserve to be in Wisdom…”
The young girl’s voice, laced with sobs in between, cried of indignance.
Those who watched her lashing out at others and embarra.s.sing the student council just now were currently dumbstruck. They watched on with their mouths agape as Ruan Mengmeng kept up her ‘performance’.
Especially Mu Jingxing. His jaw dropped so low it was wide enough to fit a goose egg.
Others might be able to get away with the excuse of misunderstanding Ruan Mengmeng, but, how could he?
d.a.m.n it! Was this still the same Ruan Mengmeng he knew? The fool who only knew how to irritate people.
However, despite her theatrical performance, Li Junyu still felt some heartache watching her.
She lost her mother at a young age. She recently lost her elder sister and was bullied in the Ruan family because of it. After just entering a strange, new environment, she was immediately and unforgivingly ostracized…
Li Junyu, who was usually repulsed by the cries of a woman, could only think about how lovingly fragile Ruan Mengmeng’s tears were, giving him the impulse to wipe away her tears.
With his left arm tightening its grip around her pet.i.te body, Li Junyu frowned and rea.s.sured in his low voice, “Don’t cry. They’ve wronged you. Big Bro will give you justice.”
This entire affair was meant to be nothing more than a minor issue that his father had asked him to correct.
However, at this moment, a ma.s.sively strong urge to project the young girl erupted in his heart.
At the very least, he should be able to discipline her as his second, third, or fourth brother would.
“But they’re all students from Cla.s.s (1) and also members of the student council…” Ruan Mengmeng raised her head. Her round, almond eyes br.i.m.m.i.n.g with tears that glinted in the sunlight.
Redness blossomed around her eye sockets and the tip of her nose. Her pitiful gaze met Li Junyu’s icy black eyes causing his eyes to darken slightly.
His right palm gently patted the top of her soft hair and he coaxed, “It doesn’t matter, you will soon be part of Cla.s.s (1) and the student council. It’s about time the student council of Wisdom Academy experienced changed.”
After saying that, he ignored everyone else.
Li Junyu leaned forward, lifted Ruan Mengmeng’s soft and pet.i.te body off the ground as he hugged her, and turned away.
“You… You can’t leave. I still have to bring her to the Princ.i.p.al’s office…” Ye Feng suddenly snapped out of his shock and responded.
