Billionaire's Long Journey of Chasing His Love Chapter 376 - 332 Purity is to Oneself (First Update)

Joyina pouted, "What are you dodging for? I won’t hit you. I already guessed you’d answer like this."

"If you already knew, why did you ask?" Mi Chenshuo stood still, amused, looking at her.

"I wouldn’t feel settled unless I heard it for myself." Joyina crinkled her nose. "Right now, I seriously suspect my dad is lying to ."

Mi Chenshuo was montarily stunned. "What did he lie to you about?"

Joyina walked over with a small, bitter face. "My dad said I’m the prettiest little princess in the world, but after coming to your house, I realized there are so many people prettier than . For example, Luo Wa jie..."

Mi Chenshuo nodded in agreent. "Luo Wa is the most beautiful girl I’ve seen growing up. You’re not even in the sa league as her, though it’s good you’ve got so self-awareness."

Joyina’s eyebrows twitched slightly as she took another half-step closer to Mi Chenshuo.

Mi Chenshuo glanced at her warily. Seeing she had no intention of making a move, he frowned slightly and said, "Since you’re not planning to go back, I don’t have much else to say. I’m heading back."

"Mi Chenshuo, aren’t you going to comfort ?" Joyina sniffled and looked at him pitifully.

Mi Chenshuo furrowed his brow and asked, "Soone as strong as you needs comforting?"

Joyina’s eyes reddened as she edged closer to him. "Who said I’m strong? I’m still just a kid!"

Seeing she was about to cry, Mi Chenshuo beca a bit flustered and said, "What I said earlier was just a joke. You’re quite pretty, really!"

"Waaa..." Joyina lowered her head, stretched out her hand, and clung tightly to his shirt, looking ridiculously pitiful.

"Don’t cry... Uh—!" Before Mi Chenshuo could finish his sentence, he took a punch to the stomach, a blow strong enough that his dinner almost ca back up.

Mi Chenshuo bent over in pain, but Joyina clearly wasn’t done yet. She clenched her fists tightly and started hamring away at his back.

"How dare you call ugly! HOW DARE YOU! I’ll hit you until you’re dead! Saying I’m not as pretty as Luo Wa jie, fine, I’ll concede because I’m indeed not as good-looking as her. But what’s up with that Huang Zing? At best, she’s just delicate-looking. God, I’m so furious! Bang, bang, bang..."

His back being used like a drum, Mi Chenshuo couldn’t take it anymore. Straightening up, he grabbed Joyina’s hands and roared, "ENOUGH! Are you ever going to stop? If it weren’t for the fact that I pity you—having gone through two close calls in two days—I wouldn’t be here in your room listening to all this nonsense!"

"I don’t need your pity!" With her hands restrained, Joyina simply resorted to using her feet, stomping him twice before shouting, "You don’t even know how to say a single kind word! You’re just here to annoy !"

"Fine! This conversation ends here. I shouldn’t have run my mouth. You’ve hit , cursed —now we’re square!" Mi Chenshuo said as he let go of Joyina’s hands and turned to head out the door.

Joyina hugged him tightly again and burst out crying, "Sob, sob... Idol... Sob..."

Mi Chenshuo pried her hands away forcefully. "I’m not your idol! Seriously, never seen anything like it, a fan who actually beats up her idol."

"Sob, sob... I just feel so awful, you know? I’ve got no family here, so I can only treat you as the person closest to . My philosophy is that you can only bully the ones you’re closest to."

Joyina raised her hand to wipe away a tear from the corner of her eye. "I’m scared, but I don’t want you guys to realize I’m scared. Because if you knew, you’d co to comfort , and I don’t want you to be distracted. I miss my mom, but I don’t dare say it, sob, sob... I don’t want to go back to Beidi; I just want to stay by your side."

Mi Chenshuo slowed his steps and turned back to look at Joyina. "Why do you want to stay by my side?"

"Nothing special! Just want to see you every day!" Joyina puckered her lips and stared at him resolutely. "Luo Wa jie says Tong Airui is more handso than you. Connie says Tong Aino is more handso than you. But in my eyes, no one is handsor than you. I just love looking at you..."

Mi Chenshuo furrowed his brows slightly. "Go to sleep. Don’t be afraid. My room is right across from yours; if anything happens, just call ."

Joyina had a bunch of things she still wanted to say, but by then, he had already left the room. The little girl chased after him and pitifully pleaded, "Mi Chenshuo, don’t lock the door, okay? That way, if I get scared and call for you, you can co quickly."

Mi Chenshuo nodded, pushed the door open, and walked into his bedroom. His hand rested on the door lock for a mont before he went straight to the bathroom.

Third Master took a shower, changed into pajamas, and got into bed. Just after closing his eyes, Joyina’s tear-streaked, pitiful face flashed into his mind.

It seed her performance was better than his, despite him being professionally trained. She’d fooled the entire family. Turns out, she wasn’t unafraid, nor did she not miss her mother. All of it was just an act.
