The Tycoon's Enchanted Mermaid-Chapter 157 - : In a State of Confusion

Chapter 157 -157: In a State of Confusion

Ah Da sat in the spacious backseat, unmoving, her large eyes flickering as she stared at the man beside her.

He looked awful.

His brow was furrowed, looking so fierce…

Ah Da felt a bit intimidated; perhaps Qin Yu found her too troublesome, always encountering issues and then troubling him…

The young girl curled up in her seat, not daring to get close, her large eyes timid like a little rabbit afraid of being scolded for a mistake, the tips of her ears drooping behind.

Qun Yu pulled out a clean suit jacket and said to her, “Take off your dress.”

Ah Da lowered her head to look at her hands, then at the dress on her body. The dreamy skirt was stained with blood from when she had fallen and struggled desperately on the ground.

She was too dirty.

But she didn’t want to undress in the car and didn’t take the jacket Qin Yu handed to her, whispering,

“My hands are bloody, I want to take a bath and change later, changing now will dirty your jacket too…”

“No, change now.” Qin Yu’s voice was cold, his dark eyes carrying an undeniable authority.

The two faced off, their eyes locked, one vulnerable and the other domineering, and the car interior fell silent for a moment.

“I don’t want to!”

Ah Da, with a crying tone, fiercely swatted his hand away and turned her back to him.

Qin Yu was sharply slapped, leaving two red marks on the back of his hand. The slender girl turned away, her frail body trembling, clearly crying.

Crying even more sadly than before.

Qin Yu frowned, reached out to pull her, but the resolute girl would not turn around no matter how much he tried.

Pearls had already silently fallen, rolling roundly to their feet. Helplessly, he had to forcefully pull her over.

Qin Yu disregarded her struggling, forcing her to sit on his lap, pinning her slender waist, and leaned forward, resting his chin between her shoulder and collarbone, sighing,

“Stop crying.”

“I shouldn’t force you, behave.”

Ah Da hung her head low, and the more Qin Yu whispered in her ear, the faster her tears fell. She didn’t know why she felt so wronged; it shouldn’t have been like this.

Qin Yu, feeling helpless, rubbed the back of her head, kissed her forehead tenderly, and sighed, “Stop crying, if you don’t want to change, then don’t. We’ll go straight to the hospital, and I’ll carry you in, okay?”

Never had he felt so utterly helpless before; Qin Yu thought he had truly gone mad.

His mind was in turmoil.

Originally, he wanted her to change out of her dirty dress and check for any injuries, but she reacted violently to the notion.

He didn’t know what she was thinking.

Seeing her cry was his fault for not considering everything; she was frightened and unclear tonight, the time when she needed comfort the most.

Ah Da, with her eyes drooping, didn’t want to talk to him, but Qin Yu wrapped around her waist and leaned down to kiss her, kissing her lips, chin, and almost going lower, which frightened her into stopping him immediately.

“Don’t…”

There must have been blood splattered on her neck; how could he kiss her carelessly!

Ah Da was furious, repeatedly hitting him despite being unable to do anything about it; his strength was too great, his arms like iron rods easily pinning her body, making it impossible for her to fight back.

Qin Yu, fearing that her palm’s injury would worsen if it rubbed against the clothes, quickly grabbed the wrist of the crying girl.

“Why are you moving about? Do you want to hurt yourself?”

He said, bending his head to check the injury on her palm. Perhaps it was an illusion, but the wound seemed to be shrinking.

Ah Da stared at his puzzled gaze, her lips pursed, silent. The injury to her palm was just a minor burn from a talisman through a door, only superficial, really nothing serious.

She would recover by tomorrow at the latest.

“Does it hurt?” Qin Yu helped her blow on it, bewitched, before he took the medical kit to apply some disinfectant.

The car sped along the highway, its interior quiet and stable, the rich fruit scent mixing with the smell of blood. Ah Da sat on Qin Yu’s lap, her tender little face as red as an apple.

The wound didn’t hurt, but the ticklish sensation from Qin Yu dabbing it with a cotton swab made her involuntarily shrink back.

“Don’t move.”

The man’s deep voice came from above her head, Ah Da sitting in his embrace, her back pressing against his firm thighs, her pale delicate legs hanging by his sides, entirely enveloped by him.

Ah Da had seen this pose on TV before, it was usually how adults held children.

Fortunately, there was no one else in the car. Ah Da’s face flushed with warmth, and her long lashes fluttered like little fans.

Qin Yu’s hand was twice the size of hers, easily gripping both her wrists with room to spare. His other hand methodically disinfected and applied medicine.

The white disinfectant felt icy cool as it was applied, canceling out the remaining burning sensation in her palm.

Qin Yu looked at the obedient little girl in front of him, his heart melted, and he couldn’t help but rub her head as he asked:

“Does it still hurt?”

Ah Da shook her head, “It doesn’t hurt.”

“Are you hurt anywhere else?”

Ah Da continued shaking her head, then turned to look at the man behind her, “Can we not go to the hospital?”

“Why? Are you scared?” Qin Yu was extremely gentle.

Ah Da looked at him earnestly, her voice soft and fluffy, foolishly proud, “I’m not scared, you are. I’m really fine; we don’t need to see a doctor….”

Qin Yu lowered his head and sealed her lips, wanting to scold her but not having the heart to, he could only punish this foolish girl who didn’t take her own wellbeing seriously in this way.

Last time her leg was injured, she acted unaffected as well.

Ah Da widened her eyes, shocked as she looked up to endure his increasingly strong kisses. Her hands were pinned by his one hand, his long fingers arrogantly burrowing into her hair.

There was a soft “click,” the largest hairpin fixing her hair fell onto the car floor, and her black hair cascaded down like a waterfall, covering their intertwined arms.

The car was filled with the sweet scent of fruits, as cloying as sugar.

Unlike the tenderness before, this time his force almost overwhelmed her, her soul seemed to plunge, her body floated up, her head dizzy with confusion.

It was unclear how much time had passed, Ah Da slightly parted her lips, feeling as if her breath had been sucked away.

Qin Yu gently patted her back, pressed his forehead against hers, caressed her snowy cheek, and suddenly chuckled lowly, “You were right, I truly feared losing you tonight, satisfied?”

Ah Da stared blankly at him, never expecting Qin Yu to say such things. He was always dominant and strong, his eyes ever assured, never “scared.”

“Qin Yu…”

Seeing the little girl’s dazed look, Qin Yu pressed a kiss to her forehead, his voice hoarsely stunning, as if making a promise to her, and also as if warning himself.

“I won’t from now on.”

Ah Da blinked her eyes, not understanding why, but she felt Qin Yu was so vulnerable at that moment and couldn’t help but turn around, her slender arms draping over his neck to comfort him, saying:

“Don’t be scared, I won’t leave you.”

Qin Yu’s heart shook intensely, he gazed deeply at her.

Ah Da met his gaze, a bit embarrassed, but she was bold, sweetly whispering in his ear, “I like you, from now on don’t be mean to me, alright?”

Qin Yu hugged her tightly, unable to suppress a laugh. The little girl always revealed her little schemes at the most touching moments.

“When have I ever been mean to you?”

“When you got in the car,” Ah Da started reckoning, “You disliked I was dirty and tersely handed me your clothes.”
