The Beloved and Pampered Girl

Chapter 1075: Chapter 1075: Fighting for Love

Jian Dan had just walked in through the door when she saw Chu Liyuan waiting at the entrance, a smile involuntarily spreading across her lips, only to fall as she spotted Chen Xirui rising from the couch.

Face-to-face confrontation~

The phrase from Qiu Zimo suddenly flashed through Jian Dan’s mind and once again, her smile curved upwards as she flung her arms around Chu Liyuan’s neck, “Uncle, I’ve missed you!”

Chu Liyuan had been wondering how to coax Jian Jian, and this sudden change left him stunned for a moment.

But it didn’t take long for him to guess Jian Jian’s motive. His lips curved into a smile involuntarily, as the mood that had been troubling him all day evaporated instantly, knowing Jian Jian had come around and he hugged her back.

To one side, Chen Xirui, although she didn’t show it, her complexion clearly changed.

So it’s Zimo’s sister after all—the direct confrontation works, huh? Therefore, “Uncle, did you miss me?” Jian Dan placed her chin on Chu Liyuan’s chest, her expectant little eyes blinking up at him.

Chu Liyuan fondly stroked Jian Dan’s head, “Missed you~” And this wasn’t just to play along with Jian Jian; it was heartfelt.

That entire day, Jian Jian hadn’t replied to his WeChat messages, nor had she taken the initiative to call him, so he’d been distracted at work, his mind occupied with thoughts of how to appease her.

Those two words made Jian Dan’s smile widen, and she tightened her arms around Chu Liyuan’s waist. “Uncle, can you carry me upstairs? I’m a bit tired,” she continued coquettishly.

Hearing Jian Dan’s soft, mellow voice, Chu Liyuan’s heart melted, and how could he possibly refuse?

He lifted Jian Dan horizontally and prepared to head upstairs~

“Uncle Chu, aren’t you going to have dinner?” Chen Xirui asked, frowning slightly.

“You go ahead and eat!”

Without pausing, Chu Liyuan went upstairs, while Jian Dan looked back at Chen Xirui, provocatively tilting her chin up.

As the two disappeared onto the second floor, Chen Xirui was so angry she felt like flipping the table over. She wanted to, but she didn’t do it, as she didn’t want to give Chu Liyuan a bad impression of her.

As soon as the bedroom door closed~ “Uncle~, put me down, please!”

“Jian Jian, it’s not nice to use someone and then discard them,” Chu Liyuan quipped, not only not putting Jian Dan down but also holding her even tighter, rendering her struggles futile.

“Chu Liyuan, let me down!” Jian Dan, after struggling in vain numerous times, finally blurted out his full name.

“Jian Jian, what did you just call me?” Chu Liyuan’s eyes narrowed menacingly.

“I~” Facing Uncle’s direct gaze, Jian Dan could no longer muster the confidence to utter those three words.

It seemed that direct confrontation didn’t work on everyone, at least not on Uncle, where it had absolutely no effect.

“Jian Jian has been naughty, a fitting punishment is in order,” Chu Liyuan said, his lips curling into a mischievous smile as he headed towards the bed…

Early the next morning, Jian Dan, dragging her weary body out of the master bedroom, wouldn’t have woken up this early if not for her meeting with Yuanyuan to discuss wedding plans—she was both tired and sleepy.

A few minutes after leaving the house she ran into Chen Xirui also coming out of her room~ Instantly, Jian Dan transformed as if she was a different person altogether, fluffed up one moment and now straightening proudly like a peacock.

She tilted her chin up, looking at Chen Xirui with pride, “Why are you up so early? Don’t tell me you had a bad night’s sleep?” Jian Dan said this on purpose.

Chen Xirui’s mouth opened as if to speak, but Jian Dan cut in, “It must’ve been too noisy last night, disturbing your rest, right? I’m really sorry about that! Blame Uncle!

Don’t worry, we will definitely be more considerate in the future to not disturb your rest!

But~ that’s going to be a bit difficult, so the best solution would be for you to move to a room further away. That should solve it.”

Chen Xirui’s lips twitched, and she forced a smile, “I’m not comfortable in other rooms; I’m particular about my bed.”

“Oh! Is that so? Well, nothing can be done then. I’m particular too.

Uncle isn’t particular about beds, but he is particular about who’s with him!” Jian Dan chuckled, raising her eyebrows slightly.

This entire scene didn’t escape Chu Liyuan, who had just stepped out, a spontaneous smile lifting the corners of his mouth…
