Pampered By My Fake Boyfriend's Brother-Chapter 526: It Could Be My Dad

An Yin’s entire mind was focused on the phone call, but it was disrupted by the man, who now wore a fierce expression. Although An Yin was scared, she was more determined to snatch the phone back.

Hanging up suddenly like that was very impolite. What if "Dad" wouldn’t answer her calls in the future?

Thinking of this, An Yin sprung up on the sofa, a newfound determination shining in her eyes, "Give me back the phone." Her voice trembled, but her words were clear.

"Hmph..." Bao Shaojin didn’t expect the usually compliant young girl to react so intensely. It was just a phone snatch, yet it transformed her character completely, from a meek rabbit to an enraged kitten. "Explain clearly, who was the person you were talking to?"

Bao Shaojin pressed closer, step by step, until the young girl had no retreat, her legs pressed against the sofa’s back.

"Wha—what do you want?"

She watched the man stretch out his hand, and soon, his powerful fingers were pinching her soft chin.

"I’m giving you one last chance, tell me or not?" Bao Shaojin leaned forward, his dark eyes deep and obsessive.

The pain in her chin stung slightly, and An Yin’s mind was in chaos. She really didn’t know how to explain this, "Bo—Bao Shaojin, let go..."

Standing on the carpet, while An Yin stood on the sofa, even so, their heights were currently on the same level. The man’s fingertips felt both soft and gentle. For no reason, he remembered the scene from the bathroom before, the young girl unclothed... Instantly, a rush of heat surged through his body, and he forcibly repressed his desires, his eyes filled with an intense emotional tide.

Since the young girl couldn’t speak anything useful, Bao Shaojin was about to call back when An Yin turned pale with fright.

"I’ll speak, I’ll speak..." An Yin was scared that Bao Shaojin would call, and if the truth got out then what? If "Dad" knew her identity, would he still be willing to chat with her often? For An Yin, exchanging a few words daily with him was already a great joy, and she didn’t want complications.

Bao Shaojin’s breathing was heavy, "Speak..." At this moment, the man’s face was very unpleasant, and he had lost his patience.

"He’s, someone my mom knows..." An Yin didn’t know how to introduce the person’s identity. Should she say he was her "Dad"? But what if her guess was wrong? Wouldn’t that be a major misunderstanding?

Bao Shaojin held the girl’s phone in his palm, listening to her ambiguous answer, his eyes growing deep, "Explain clearly."

"He might be my ’Dad’." An Yin’s lively eyes were clear of any impurities.

Bao Shaojin saw the confusion in the young girl’s brows and eyes and recalled how she asked him for the phone card before. He had already guessed the truth; the young girl didn’t want the person on the phone to recognize her voice.

The grip on her chin gradually loosened, and An Yin, freed, retreated to the corner of the sofa, hugging her knees and looking pitifully at the man, "Can I have my phone back?"

Bao Shaojin suppressed the irritation in his heart and tossed the phone beside the young girl.

An Yin quickly picked it up. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"Do you need my help?" Bao Shaojin asked in a deep voice.

Investigating a person was easy for him.

"No." An Yin shook her head without thinking. Some things, being fuzzy and unclear, provide a type of happiness. If the investigation revealed something she couldn’t accept, she’d probably never have the chance to talk with "Dad" again in this life. Maintaining the current illusion was also a type of happiness for An Yin.

Although she couldn’t call him "Dad," hearing the warmth in his voice always made her heart surge inexplicably. In those moments, she seemed certain he was her "Dad."

But she didn’t dare break the fragile illusion.

She simply needed to ask, "Do you know An Ying?" But she never had the courage to voice it aloud.

Bao Shaojin, seeing the young girl’s troubled mood, felt guilty for his earlier rashness, "This was my fault." The man, with a defiant face, had never bowed his head to anyone in this life; only in front of this young girl did he lose the reason he always prided himself on.

An Yin gently rubbed her chin. The man’s grip was strong, and pinching her chin had become habitual. She pouted, showing no interest in his apology.

The room was filled with a very unpleasant medicinal smell, brewed for quite some time, so the young girl hadn’t drunk it yet.

The man saw her shrink fearfully into a ball, and lowered his tone, "Still mad?" Bao Shaojin also noticed the bright red marks on her fair chin from his hold, which looked quite alarming.

The young girl’s skin was so delicate, it seemed like it could break at the slightest touch!

The man softened his tone, which An Yin found a bit unsettling. She turned her eyes, looking indignantly at him, "Can you please not bully me anymore?"

When she spoke, she blinked her eyes like clear autumn waters; looking into them, one would find a charming sparkle. The young girl’s slender figure gave a fragile impression, and a faint worry swept over her beautifully delicate cheeks.

Unbeknownst to her, her current demeanor was alluring to the man.

Can you not bully her anymore?

Truth be told, Bao Shaojin couldn’t guarantee it; he had lost count of how many times he’d dreamt vividly of bullying her.

The man stood before her, his face cold, unable to promise. An Yin pouted angrily at this.

Seeing a mist of tears gather in her bright eyes, Bao Shaojin feared she would start crying and left with the words, "I’ll try."

Hearing his arrogant words, An Yin felt dissatisfied in her heart. But seeing his massive figure and the powerful aura emanating from him, An Yin dared not push further. The man’s slight compromise was already quite something.

Seeing her face clear of most of its gloom, Bao Shaojin shifted the topic, "Do you remember the desserts from last time?" Thinking of how the young girl loved the food from "Yingying Waters," Bao Shaojin intended to use delicious food to soothe her troubled emotions.

"You mean ’Yingying Waters’?" An Yin instantly remembered the store’s name and blurted it out.

The young girl, usually muddled, lit up at the mention of food, which left Bao Shaojin feeling helpless, "Let’s go there for dinner tonight."

An Yin’s initially excited expression faltered instantly, "I’m not going." Her focus now was on earning money, not spending it.

"It’s still early, it won’t delay your work," Bao Shaojin said in a low tone, thinking she feared being late for her job.
