Chapter 84 - 83 Confession
Sitting in front of the transparent floor-to-ceiling window, Nanrong Wanqing was looking outside, with a clear view of the street opposite.
Under the dim streetlights, a little girl and a little boy were frolicking and horsing around, their faces brimming with joyful smiles. The girl was a head taller than the boy, gracefully beautiful. They bore a slight resemblance to each other, probably siblings.
Just then, in their chase, the little boy accidentally tripped over the curb steps and tumbled to the ground, crying loudly.
Upon seeing this, the little girl hurried over, helped the boy up from the ground. Then, she gently blew on the boy’s scraped knee twice and indulgently pulled his head into her embrace, murmuring something that could not be made out.
In a short while, the tears of the little boy gradually ceased, replaced by laughter through his sobs.
Watching this heartwarming scene, a slight wetness appeared at the corners of Nanrong Wanqing’s eyes as her memory instantly traveled back to her childhood.
Back then, she and Nanrong Hao were just like the siblings by the street. Without the care of their parents, as the elder sister, she tried hard to protect Nanrong Hao and shield him from bullying. Whenever Nanrong Hao felt sad or troubled, she would stay by his side to encourage and take care of him.
As they grew older, Nanrong Yong placed high hopes on Nanrong Hao, wishing to mold him into the successor of Hongyu Group. Unfortunately, Nanrong Hao had no interest in the business, and despite the years that passed, he remained unchanged, his character growing more and more rebellious.
