Chapter 54: Unforgettable Past (1)
"Why do you seem to be avoiding me lately?"
"No!"
"If you don't have any, why don't you dare look at me?"
"It's your illusion."
"illusion?"
Under the blue sky and white clouds, Wang Shu angrily pulled Li Jun's gaze back to the front, as he had been avoiding her. When he was pulled back to the front, Li Jun shifted his gaze again.
“Is it an illusion??”
Faced with Wang Shu's questioning, Li Jun remained silent.
"Did my father say something to you?"
Wang Shu knew that the person who could make Li Jun so upset was her father Wang Wencheng. She couldn't think of anyone else. Even so, Li Jun remained silent. His silence proved Wang Shu's speculation. She let go of Li Jun's arm and immediately turned around and strode away...
"Shu'er!!"
Before he had taken a few steps, he was stopped by Li Jun.
"Let me go."
"where are you going?"
"Where I go is none of your business."
"How come it's none of my business? If you ask your father to help you with my affairs, I won't let you go."
"You won't let me go?"
After hearing what Li Jun said, Wang Shu slowly turned around and faced Li Jun. This action made Li Jun slightly shaken. It must be because it was just as Wang Shu speculated. In this case, Li Jun would feel somewhat guilty.
"If you don't let me go, will I have to face your cold face all day? Or do you just disdain me? You care more about Dad's orders than me, so if he tells you not to get close to me or leave me, you will definitely do it, right?"
"No, no, I won't leave you."
"You won't leave? Maybe, but you can escape. I'm standing right in front of you, but you can pretend not to see me."
"I……"
"Well, let's make it clear now. Do you really love me?"
"Of course I love you."
"That's enough."
After hearing Li Jun's words, Wang Shu turned around again.
"Shu'er!!"
Ignoring Li Jun's obstruction, Wang Shu moved towards where he wanted to go.
After Wang Shu returned home, he rushed straight to the study room, ignoring the housekeeper and others' attempts to stop him, and broke into the study room...
"Shu'er, do you know that what you are doing is very rude?"
"I'm sorry, Dad, but I came here because I want to ask you something."
The housekeepers and servants who followed Wang Shu left one after another because of the atmosphere. Li Jun wanted to leave as well, but was stopped by Wang Shu...
"Don't leave, because this matter is also related to you."
After listening to Wang Shu's words and looking at Wang Wencheng, Li Jun knew the seriousness of the situation, but he was powerless to stop it, so he had to stay and face it. The housekeeper closed the study door before leaving because he knew that what happened next was not something they should know.
"What's going on? Have you forgotten who you are? How dare you be so disrespectful of your image in front of so many people."
"Image? Yes, I have been working hard to gain your approval, doing what you expect. In order not to lose face as the president of Wang Group, I often maintain a noble and elegant image in front of outsiders. By doing so, I will think that you will pay more attention to me. So I will continue to work hard in the future. I should say that I have never given up."
Li Jun knew very well the bitterness in Wang Shu's words. The hand holding his was trembling, which showed that Wang Shu was extremely panicked at the moment. Even though she appeared to be so strong and brave on the surface, she could not hide her inner panic. This was the first time Wang Shu rebelled against her father.
"I never felt like I was threatening you."
"Yes, you have never threatened me, but you have put me under mental pressure. Whenever I think of me as the daughter of the president of your Wang Group, I will always be alert. I must be able to maintain my dignity in public occasions. Every time I attend those banquets that I have to go to, I must maintain a perfect image, because this is what you want, isn't it?"
"What do you want to say?"
Wang Wencheng was, after all, a dominant figure in the business world. His intuition clearly told him that Wang Shu came with a purpose.
"It's nothing, actually. From now on I will still do what you say, Dad. However, there is only Ajun, only Ajun I won't give up. I know that you must have told him something, and you also know that he won't tell me what happened between you two. But you don't know that although Ajun sometimes has a blank expression and seems indifferent, even so it can't be used to hide his pure heart. Only I know his purity, integrity and kindness. Because I love him and I need him, so no matter what you say or intervene between us, I will never give up. If for this reason, you think that I am not qualified to be the heir of Wang Group and not qualified to be your daughter, then from this moment on, I will give up everything and the Wang family name. I just want him to stay with me for a long time."
"Shu'er!!"
Li Jun was almost stunned and could not believe what he heard. The Wang Shu he knew was a girl who laughed heartily in front of her friends, was lively, innocent, generous and decent. Only when facing Wang Wencheng did she always bury her innocence and romance, and was very demanding of herself. She would never even disobey Wang Wencheng's wishes and was only focused on being a good child. Therefore, her family members and relatives and friends said that she was a puppet doll. Those who said that about her were people who had never seen the real Wang Shu. However, at this moment, Li Jun could hardly believe his hearing. He clearly heard Wang Shu's first resistance to Wang Wencheng.
