Chapter 539 - 539: The Bai Family Came Looking For Her, First Trouble (2)

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Shao Jingmo glanced at her. This glance made Qiao Qiao think that she didn’t know what was good for her. After all, he was the President of Deep Blue Corporation and a famous figure in Xingzhou. He had lowered himself to help her treat her leg, but she still shyly refused.

Actually, it was just that she had too many inner dramas.

Shao Jingmo only asked, “Can you do it yourself?”

Qiao Qiao was stunned for two or three seconds, then she quickly nodded.

“Sure.”

Shao Jingmo did not say anything else and handed the ice pack to her. Qiao Qiao took it with trembling hands, afraid that Shao Jingmo would go back on his word. After taking it, she immediately applied it to her knee and even smiled foolishly at him.

Shao Jingmo didn’t leave. Instead, he sat down beside Qiao Qiao. He didn’t sit very close to her and maintained his usual distance. While she was applying pressure on her knees, he asked her, “Qiao Qiao, let’s talk.”

Qiao Qiao turned her head. “About what?”

Shao Jingmo did not look at her. “Let’s talk about what happens next.” Qiao Qiao didn’t ask what it was. She knew that Shao Jingmo would speak next.

“We don’t have any feelings. Marriage is a formality. You need me to help you deal with the Bai family. My willingness to agree is to repay Grandpa for raising me. It doesn’t conflict with each other,” he said slowly.

These words were very ordinary. But it was something Qiao Qiao had never heard of. Moreover, she had never chatted openly with Shao Jingmo before. This was the first time.

Qiao Qiao almost couldn’t keep up. Her mind was slow for a few seconds before she caught up. She didn’t even call him Little Uncle anymore and called him by his full name. “Shao Jingmo, don’t tell me you’re changing your mind now?”

Shao Jingmo looked at her sideways. “Changed my mind?”

The ice pack in Qiao Qiao’s hand scattered. She hugged Shao Jingmo’s arm with both hands and said nervously, ‘You can’t change your mind midway. If you don’t protect me, something will happen to me.”

Shao Jingmo did not say anything and just looked at her quietly. The quieter the atmosphere, the more panicked Qiao Qiao became. She was really afraid that Shao Jingmo would really change his mind.

The Bai family’s power was gradually rising. She could not resist the Bai family’s power alone. She would only be captured by the Bai family to fulfill her promise.

At the thought of her fate, Qiao Qiao was on the brink of tears. She lowered her posture. “I’ll listen to you. If I say anything to make you uncomfortable, I’ll apologize. I’ll do whatever you say in the future. I won’t disobey you. I just hope you won’t change your mind. I don’t want to marry that old man from the Bai family.”

Shao Jingmo tugged at the corners of his lips. “I’m many years older than you. Am I not an old man in your eyes?”

“You’re not,” Qiao Qiao said firmly.

Shao Jingmo asked her, “Are you trying to please me?”

“I’m not trying to please you.” Qiao Qiao shook her head. “How can the Bai family compare to you? There’s a great difference.”

Shao Jingmo said, “Although you’re only saying this to please me, I’m still happy.”

Qiao Qiao whispered, “I’m not trying to please you. I’m just telling the truth. I’ve never seen anyone better than you.”

Even if she was sincere and did not say that to please him, Shao Jingmo did not think so. He would only think that she was trying to please him because she would not praise him for any other reason.

Shao Jingmo leaned back and said indifferently, “I’ll still say the same thing. There’s no need to please me in the future. It’s meaningless. Do whatever you want. If you pierce through the sky, I’ll patch it up. If you lose in an argument,

I’ll back you up. It’s a very simple matter.”

After a pause, Shao Jingmo added, “Also, I won’t change my mind easily. At least not until I take down the Bai family.”

This last sentence was to reassure Qiao Qiao. He promised that before taking down the Bai family, he would not change his mind easily and make her lose her protection.

Qiao Qiao was frightened. After hearing Shao Jingmo’s words, she heaved a sigh of relief. “Don’t scare me like this next time.”

“I’m not scaring you, you’re scaring yourself,” he said. He bent to pick up the ice pack from the floor and turned onto his side to apply it to her reddened knee.

This time, Qiao Qiao didn’t insist on doing it herself. She just watched him apply it for her. As she watched, she couldn’t help but say, ‘Little Uncle, you’re still quite good to me.”

Shao Jingmo pursed his lips. “Is that so?”

“That’s right. Don’t always not believe me. I’m serious with you a lot of the time. For example, just now, when I said that I had never seen anyone better than you, I meant it. But you didn’t believe me.”

Shao Jingmo said indifferently, “l believe you..”
