Guide To Reign My Tycoon Husbands - Chapter 445

Chapter 445: The strong have the rights to feel sad too
“What do you mean?” Luo Huian looked at the woman with a hint of confusion in her eyes. “Are you trying to pull my legs or something?” Luo Huian asked because she had a feeling that the woman was mocking her after all; she and being kind could never go hand in hand.

“I am not trying to pull your legs.” Dong Geming was quite surprised when she heard Luo Huian’s words; she raised her hands and waved them twice in refusal. “I am being sincere. The first time I saw you fight the gloom, I thought that you were pulling some stunt to gain fame but soon I realised that my thinking was too shallow.”

“You not only helped a family; you even helped Duan Zixuan,” sighed Dong Geming heavily. “And during that banquet, you used yourself as bait to save the life of Miss Zhai. Not to mention, you actually went to this degree to safeguard Miss You and her family.”

“I have to admit that despite being a tad bit arrogant, you are a kind woman. If I am being honest,” she scratched her cheek and stated, “You are the kind of person I can trust with my eyes closed. I am sure if something happens to me, you will do everything in your power to rescue me.”

Luo Huian : “…”

This was a misunderstanding and it was quite a big misunderstanding. Though she wanted to tell Dong Geming the truth, she pursed her lips and kept quiet. Her eyes flickered and she noticed the thick and richly dense gloom aura that was lurking around Dong Geming.

If not for the fact that the woman was an A-rank hunter, Luo Huian was sure that the woman would have long become the host of a gloom. She tapped her fingers and lowered her head before sipping the liquor in her glass.

Maybe she could use this meeting to take care of the gloom aura that had grasped hold of Dong Geming’s heart?

Luo Huian wouldn’t be this eager either if she was not in a desperate situation. All the good deeds that she had done were gone to dust; she could do nothing but act a bit more proactive. If not, what was she going to do? Wait for an opportunity to fall in her hands? Luo Huian sighed and cursed her old woman more than a thousand times in her heart while smiling at Dong Geming.

She said, “You seem to be a bit worried, Sister Dong. Did something happen?”

“Ah, why are you calling me Sister Dong? Just call me Sister Geming,” Dong Geming said with a smile. However, her smile soon turned shallow and she remarked, “Was it really that easy for you to sense that something was wrong with me?”

“Well, I did sense that something is amiss with you.” Luo Huian could sense when a person was in a desperate situation; after all, her skills allowed her to see the rise of the gloom index. Thus, she was quite sharp when it came to noticing when a person was feeling sad, angry, or upset.

Hearing her response, Dong Geming smile turned even sadder. She then said to Luo Huian, “Ahaha, I guess you are really smart. No wonder Leader Qingling is so protective of you. It’s because of this reason. You really know how to make a person happy.”

Dong Geming grew up in a family where she was not taken care of; her parents only cared about her elder sister, who was prefect and gentle in their eyes, while she, who was a bit too heavy and muscular, was left in the hands of the nannies and her paternal grandfather.

It wasn’t until the world fell into chaos and her sister awakened as a C rank hunter that her parents remember that they also had another daughter and wanted to acknowledge her but she never went back home and stayed with her grandfather as long as he was alive before moving away.

But after the passing of her grandfather, no one cared about her. Though her parents would come to her house and often bring gifts while saying that they missed her, they never asked her what she was doing or how she was feeling. If anything, they simply dumped a few things that they did not want to keep with them in her house and then asked her to help her elder sister get close to Luo Qingling.

Not to mention the amount of advantage they took by using her name.

And when she refused to let her elder sister enter the guild, her parents would call her unfilial and blame her grandfather for raising her as a selfish brat, which led to further quarrelling, but talking with Luo Huian —

She raised her head and looked at Luo Huian who was calmly munching on the dried squid. Though this woman was a bit haughty, talking with her felt a bit more relaxing.

“She is just overprotective of me,” snorted Luo Huian. “I am not really special.”

“Haha, you might not know this but it’s really hard on S-rank hunters to have someone who will truly care for us,” remarked Dong Geming. “Though they are always surrounded by limelight and fans, I don’t think that they are in a good place. If you look past the glamour, you will realise that they are instead quite lonely. How many hunters would return home and have someone ask if they are doing alright or if they are tired or unhappy?”

“Everyone who sees them would only see their power and authority. Not the anger, helplessness, and sadness.”

She curled her lips and stated, “I mean, just think about it. If a big and strong woman like me says that I am unhappy and scared, will you believe me?”

“Why won’t I believe you?” Luo Huian’s tone was a bit slurried as she was drinking her fifth glass. With her face flushed red, she looked at the woman and said, “What does being strong and big have to do with you being upset? Do you mean to say that just because you are strong, you can’t feel sad? Who was the idiot who told you that?”

“I am telling you to kick this idiot out! He or she has no brains at all.”
