?Chapter 300: Chapter 301: Tenderness (3)_1 Chapter 300: Chapter 301: Tenderness (3)_1 Liang Chen smiled gently, embracing Jing Haohao as they lay back down. His hand stroked her back intermittently, his voice resonating softly in the quiet bedroom, “It was just a nightmare, don’t worry about it. Don’t think too much. Sleep soundly.”
“I know you hit someone with your car during the day and that you’re frightened. But, haven’t those issues been resolved now? Qiao Wennuan has already woken up and isn’t seriously injured. She even called and spoke with my lawyer, saying that she’s willing to resolve the matter privately. Accidents happen when driving, as long as it’s not a fatality, it’s not a big deal. Plus, even if something does go wrong, what’s there to fear? Have you forgotten that you have me?”
Liang Chen’s voice was gentle, different from his previously cold and arrogant tone, softly echoing in Jing Haohao’s ears in the quiet bedroom deep into the night.
Jing Haohao nestled in his arms, his faint, fresh scent filling her with every breath, gradually overpowering the bloody smell from her nightmare. It made the panic she’d been feeling after believing she’d killed someone gradually dissolve, and her body slowly relax.
Feeling her relaxation, Liang Chen held her even closer, shifting into a more comfortable position. He continued speaking in a relaxed tone, “Although we don’t advocate using power to oppress others, as long as you’re not committing heinous crimes like murder or arson, I won’t abandon you when you’re in trouble. Don’t worry, as long as I, Liang Chen, am around, no one in Jiangshan City will be able to give you a hard time. I can still protect a woman.”
This man was completely different from Shen Liangnian. Shen Liangnian was gentle and courteous, while he was like a natural-born king, exuding a domineering aura without deliberate effort, just like now, offering comfort so arrogantly.
She’d been truly afraid of him in the past. She’d resented him, and hated him, yet when faced with him, she lacked the power to resist. All she could do was tread lightly as though on thin ice, fearing the moment she’d provoke his anger. Even when he wasn’t angry, she dared not reveal her true feelings to him.
She always thought that losing Shen Liangnian was the greatest agony in her life. But she never expected that Shen Liangnian would humiliate her with money. She never expected her innocence to believe his message and rush to the airport to bid him farewell.
Only now did she realise that he’d already been with Qiao Wennuan. Qiao Wennuan had merely been toying with her.
She felt really wronged, feeling oppressed for quite some time. Without Shen Liangnian, she had no one to confide in. She could only experience it all alone, bottled up inside her.
Now, with Liang Chen comforting her like this, she felt as though she’d found a vent for her feelings. Burying her head in Liang Chen’s chest, her tears started to flow like a neverending river.
Once her tears started to flow, they didn’t stop, flowing more and more, until Jing Haohao started crying out loud.
Liang Chen held her without speaking, simply letting her vent her sorrows in the simplest way. It was only when her whole body shuddered from crying that he tightened his arms around her, hugging her closely into his chest.
