Guide To Reign My Tycoon Husbands - Chapter 386

Chapter 386: Doubting her words
“Of course,” Liao Liqin typed. “What else can I do with you?” Though he knew what Luo Huian was worried about, Liao Liqin didn’t think that he would be tempted by Luo Huian to the point where he would forget the things that she had done to him in the past.

Luo Huian looked at the mer in front of her; though he looked a bit annoyed, she could see that he truly didn’t seem to be scheming against her.

“All I need to do is help you win this freaking award and then we are done?” she asked with a calm voice.

“This and other awards as well,” Liao Liqin told her. “Don’t worry; I am not asking you to support me till the end. Just until I win the Barta Academy awards; after that I will never bother you again.”

The Barta Academy awards were the biggest awards that a sculpture could ever get. These awards were not just awards but they also gave the sculptors a chance to showcase their talents, which meant that if he won that award, the academy would help him by arranging for an exhibition.

It was not that his family didn’t have the money but Liao Liqin wanted to achieve this glory on his own; not to mention, his parents were already troubled enough due to his twin brother’s sickness.

“How long will it take?” Luo Huian asked without wasting her time. It was not that she was being mean; she just didn’t want to jump into a mess that didn’t have a certain deadline.

“Don’t worry. If nothing goes wrong, then I will be able to qualify for the awards in six months,” Liao Liqin told Luo Huian, whose eyes flashed, and she nodded.

“Alright, I understand,” Luo Huian took out a lollipop and then popped it in her mouth as she agreed, “Very well but only for six months. As for whether you can win the awards or not, it has nothing to do with me.”

Liao Liqin nodded while sneering in his heart, “You don’t have to tell me that.”

Did she think that he would start clinging onto her after six months? Naive!

However, after the period of six months was over, Liao Liqin would soon realise who was the naive one.

While Luo Huian and Liao Liqin settled their differences in one way or another, You Ruojin, who returned to the small house that belonged to her family, was so tired that she wished she could fall asleep and never wake up again.

She didn’t know what kind of thing provoked Chu Jixue, but that mer, after dragging her around to shop for this and that, he dragged her to the bed and didn’t let her off for more than three hours.

Not to mention the wounds and pain that he inflicted on her were something that he couldn’t show to anyone.

“Jinjin, are you back already?” Father You looked at his daughter with a smile on his face. His haggard face was filled with smiles as he looked at his daughter despite the tiredness that he felt due to the entire day of work. “Come, I have cooked roasted pork leg for you.”

“That’s right, sister,” her brother, You Yizhen, looked at his daddy and rolled his eyes jokingly. “Daddy has been waiting for you for an hour. I asked him to let me taste the roasted pork leg but he didn’t even let me touch it. He said that only when you and Mom are back will I be able to eat it.”

When You Ruojin heard the words of her brother, she really wished to shed all the courage and fears that she had been holding within in her heart and confess how tired she was after following that mer.

But she knew that the second she did that, her family, despite being poor, would give up the resources that Chu Jixue had given to them but with how possessive that mer was regarding her, would he let them go?

Her family was the only handle that Chu Jixue had in his hands; she didn’t think that he would let them off so easily.

Thus, even though she was feeling pain all over her body, she still hitched her lips up in a smile and ruffled the hair of her little brother. She said to him, “You glutton, you really know how to snatch all the good things from your sister, huh?”

“How am I —”

“Ouch.” You Ruojin let out a wince when You Yizhen reached out and held her arm. The pain was enough to make her break out in a cold sweat.

“Sister?” You Yizhen pulled his hand away and looked at his sister worriedly. What happened? What happened to his sister? Why was she looking like she was injured gravely?

“I was knocked into the door of the metro when I was returning,” You Ruojin was worried that her brother would start worrying about her and made an excuse.

“Oh dear, why did you not tell me?” Daddy You asked as he stepped out of the kitchen and then looked at his daughter with a frown. “Come here; I will rub some peppermint oil on the wound. It will ease the swelling a bit.”

“No need,” You Ruojin avoided her father and then stepped to one side. She smiled at her daddy and stated in a calm voice, “There is no need for you to worry about me, Daddy. I have already gone to the doctor and had her rub an ointment. You know how I am, right? I hate being in pain so much.”

After she finished speaking, she turned around and climbed up the stairs in a hurry.

“This girl,” Daddy You frowned and couldn’t help but remark in a worried tone, “What’s wrong with her these days? Every now and then she would return home with an injury. I hope she is not going through those illegal dungeons to earn money.”

You Yizhen, on the other hand, had a completely different outlook than his daddy. The place where he touched his sister was not swollen, which showed that she was lying!

He frowned and then chased after his sister; he needed to ask her what was wrong with her.
