Chapter 204: Will Die

The indifferent man sitting on the sofa listened to the little girl’s sad sobs.

With a gloomy and cold handsome face, his sharp brows and eyes showed inexplicable annoyance, and his thin lips were tightly pursed.

He felt that with women... communicating with women was simply impossible!

So he always hated two kinds of people:

One is women, the other is children.

Women are usually unreasonable, like to argue, and are often unnecessarily troublesome.

Children are unintelligent, low in IQ, difficult to communicate with, and love to cry.

And this Little Troublemaker, by some misfortune, had both traits.

The expression on Lu Junhan’s face was so dark it looked like it could drip water, as if he were on the verge of exploding at any moment.

He coldly stared at the pretty little girl with a tear-streaked face in front of him, with his eyebrows tightly furrowed.

After a long while, he leaned back on the sofa, crossing his arms, and let out a cold laugh:

"So, in the end, you’re just upset because you didn’t get enough candy, right?"

As he said this, he couldn’t be bothered to see the little girl’s reaction and directly turned his face away coldly, glancing indifferently at the assistant still dumbfounded at the door.

The assistant, seeing this, immediately took out his phone understandingly:

"Then I’ll have someone send over a truck full of candy right away—"

"No!"

The little girl’s beautiful black eyes flashed with panic, and tears welled up in her eyes: "... Li Li doesn’t want candy!"

Lu Junhan stared at her with a dark face, and his expression almost read "What the hell is wrong with you now!"

But the little girl seemed oblivious to his frightening and intimidating look, and while whimpering, she hugged Lu Junhan, her black eyes filled with tears, and her soft little voice choked pitifully:

"Dad, you, you don’t need to buy more. You’re already so poor, and if you buy more candy, you’ll just... be even poorer... Li Li doesn’t want you to become poorer—wahhhh—"

As she spoke, she seemed unable to hold back.

Her soft white little hands gripped her dad’s clothes, her small head buried in Lu Junhan’s embrace, her crying growing louder and more tragic.

Even the old man, who usually lacked compassion and was cold and ruthless, could easily hear the sadness in her words.

It seemed Dad being poor really upset her too much.

To the point where her eyes could cry themselves blind.

Lu Junhan: "..."

Lu Junhan took a deep breath, forcing down his violent temper, and looked at her expressionlessly with slightly lowered black eyes, his icily sarcastic voice:

"So basically, you won’t be happy unless I go dig coal, right?"

The little girl’s eyes lit up, and she nodded her little head vigorously, her soft voice very serious as she said:

"Yes, Dad, if you go dig coal, Li Li would be super happy!"

"..."

You’re happy, but I’m not happy at all.

The little girl, excited by her own words, even forgot to cry. She hugged her dad’s neck, her big black eyes bright and sparkling, irresistibly cute:

"Besides, digging coal is very profitable! You can earn two hundred yuan an hour! Dad, you probably haven’t seen that much money before, right?"

Lu Junhan: "..."

Song Qingwan quickly went over to restrain Lu Junhan, who was about to lose his temper, exuding a chilling presence.

She was thinking about whether she should quickly take the trouble-causing little girl away first.

However, just then, the little girl suddenly lowered her eyes, and her voice became low and dejected.

Pitifully, she said:

"Originally, Li Li wanted to go too, but Yiming said that his dad only hires strong adults, and Li Li is a big child, not an adult, so I can’t go..."

Hearing this, Song Qingwan immediately knew it was over.

That certain brat was about to start showing off his pitifulness again.

As expected, the dark and indifferent look on the elegant man’s face instantly disappeared, and instead, he lazily leaned back on the sofa.

He coldly glanced at the excited little girl and said nonchalantly:

"Then I guess I can’t go either."

The little girl, who had been talking happily, suddenly heard this, her eyes went wide: "Why not?"

"Because your dad, I, am very weak," Lu Junhan glanced at her, casually raised his eyebrows, and said lightly, "If I go dig for coal, I’ll die."

Song Qingwan: "..."

The old man: "..."
