CHAPTER 41: CHAPTER 41: DESTINED CONNECTION 2

"You..."

Li Tingyan’s spine straightened as he instinctively prepared to throw out the little figure that had bumped into him. But when he lowered his head, he was met with Nianyang’s panic-stricken small face.

It’s her!

The daring girl who sat on his lap the first time they met and boldly called him Li brother!

How did she end up here, and why did she dive straight into his arms?

Oh boy, after a few days apart, this girl’s courage has grown even more!

It’s summer, people are wearing lighter clothes, Nianyang hugged him directly from the front, and with a man’s innate sensitivity, he could even feel the girl’s breathing causing a soft ripple across her chest.

Li Tingyan’s breath hitched, his handsome face flushed with unease from never being this close to a girl before. Fortunately, his skin was a bronzed tone from years spent at sea and regular training, making it invisible to the naked eye.

The crew member next to him watched in shock as a girl suddenly embraced his stern and dignified Li master. His eyes almost bulged out!

Goodness me, what’s the situation? Are village girls this open nowadays?

But why didn’t she hug him? Although he’s not as handsome as Li master, he’s a hundred times more gentle than this Cold Yama. This girl really made the wrong choice!

"Um, Li brother, I ran into some trouble. Could you help me out? Saving a life is better than building a seven-tiered pagoda!" Nianyang quickly explained her intention, unaware of the man’s discomfort, before releasing her grip and hiding behind Li Tingyan.

"..."

Li Tingyan’s eyes darkened. When the girl left his arms, he actually felt a sense of loss. He didn’t even understand what he was longing for?

At this point, several thugs had caught up, shouting arrogantly at Li Tingyan, "Hey, kid up front, hand over that stinking girl to us!"

Li Tingyan slightly furrowed his brows. His years of overseas experience made him exude an aura of a superior’s cold authority even without a cloak today, just in a white shirt and black pants. His cold and deep voice emanated a chill that penetrated the bone, "What do you want to do?"

With Li Tingyan staring at them like hellish eyes, the thugs unwittingly swallowed and felt their legs go weak.

A glance at his eyes confirmed that he’s someone not to be messed with!

But just leaving like this, wouldn’t it be a bit too disgraceful?

The thug leader thought they were six people, were they really afraid they couldn’t handle the two guys in front of them? He blustered, "Kid, at first glance you’re just passing by, this has nothing to do with you. We’re only after the girl behind you!"

"Scram!" Li Tingyan’s dark eyes narrowed, his icy tone like the cold wind of hell roaring past, carrying an overwhelming force capable of destroying the world.

The thugs’ faces simultaneously went pale; they shivered in unison and dared not harbor any thoughts, swiftly tucking their tails and running away.

They’ve been thugs for a long time and have the knack for observing and knowing who they can provoke and who they can’t.

Although Li Tingyan did nothing, his aura was terrifying, like a great demon king who had experienced blood and turmoil. They really didn’t dare to act rashly.

Today, let’s just say the little girl got lucky!

Nianyang watched in amazement as Li Tingyan scared the ferocious thugs away with just two sentences. She couldn’t help but admire him, isn’t he just incredibly handsome, deserving of being an overseas business tycoon!
