The fingertips touching her skin were hot and deadly, just like her restless and violently beating heart that could hardly be suppressed.

The heartbeat is like a drum, a restrained and suppressed heartbeat.

Wen Li'er lowered her eyelids, and her thick and dense eyelashes cast mottled shadows, concealing all her unknown emotions.

He responded softly and obediently: "I understand."

When applying the medicine, Lu Ting's movements were gentle and careful. He was even afraid that the little girl would feel pain, so he leaned in close and blew gently.

The slightly cool air spread over the soles of her feet one by one, like a hundred claws tickling her heart, making Wen Li'er dare not even breathe heavier. She could only grab the quilt with her hands, and her knuckles turned white due to the extreme restraint.

It showed how confused she was at the moment.

"Er Er, was this injury an accident or man-made?"

Before Wen Lier could answer, the man looked up at her with deep, sparkling, and affectionate eyes, "Er Er, if you don't want to make your uncle worry, just tell me the truth."

"Others may hurt you, but your uncle will always protect you, understand?"

The little girl has been very sensible since she was young. When he first brought her home, he arranged for Wen Lier to transfer to the best aristocratic school in Kyoto.

I thought she would be very happy, but the little girl was depressed for several days and even had a vague resistance to going to school.

Lu Ting asked her if she was in any trouble, but the little girl just lowered her head, her hands turning white as she pinched the straps of her schoolbag, and shook her head silently.

In this regard, Lu Ting did not ask any more questions and instead ordered people to investigate.

After some investigation, I found out that there is a chain of contempt among students in aristocratic schools, and the student groups are divided into levels of superiority and inferiority based on the status of their family.

When Wen Li'er first transferred to the school, some people in her class asked about her family background in front of her.

Wen Li'er refused to cooperate and speak, so these people bullied her blatantly.

He scribbled on her desk, deliberately pulled out her chair when she sat down, and even locked her in the bathroom.

As the story goes, Wen Li'er was bullied for as long as she spent in the new school.

No wonder she resists going to school. In such a depressing environment, it would be considered mentally strong if the child did not become depressed.

After learning the whole story, Lu Ting was furious. He seldom got angry. His wealthy family background and his own superior conditions made him a superior person and an object of admiration since he was a child.

And now, the little girl he doted on and loved was being bullied right under his nose. This was simply provoking trouble and trampling on his bottom line!

Lu Ting took prompt and decisive action to handle the matter personally. Of course, he also had principles. Since these bullies were all minors, as the saying goes, "a child's failure to learn is the fault of his parents", since the children could not learn well, it could be attributed to problems with their parents' parenting.

In less than a week, the businesses of the parents of the bullies on the list suffered heavy losses, and these people realized belatedly that they had offended the Lu family.

That is the top financial group in Kyoto. If you offend the Lu family, you will have no chance of survival in Kyoto, let alone in the whole of China!

These people came in a hurry to apologize, and Lu Ting said to them in a friendly manner: "If a son is not well educated, it is the fault of the father. My child has a good temper, but I am the most protective of my faults. If you touch my people, you will pay a heavy price."

"You have two options: either you keep your children in school, but the price is the bankruptcy and liquidation of your business."

"Or you can take the lead, review all your past sins and apologize in front of the whole school, and then get out of Kyoto."

Lu Ting's voice was so gentle, and his words were so soul-stirring: "I don't have much patience. Choose one."

Of course, these people chose the second option without hesitation, and walked out in a panic, nodding and bowing and apologizing.

Wen Li'er had no intention of hiding it from Lu Ting, and even if she didn't tell him, Lu Ting would ask someone to investigate. Of course, he would tell her in advance before investigating.

Lu Ting has always respected her privacy very much.

He described to Lu Ting roughly what happened in the auditorium.

After listening to this, Lu Ting only asked: "Er Er, you already have someone you suspect, right?"

"Yes, I deliberately said that I would hold someone responsible. Although Lin Man tried her best to cover it up, I could see that she was guilty. My roommate has already asked for the surveillance. I can handle this matter, so you don't have to worry about it, uncle."

Lu Ting's voice was a little cold, but he still respected Wen Li'er's idea. "Er Er, just do whatever you want to do, but if there is any trouble, you must tell me the first time, understand?"

Wen Li'er raised the corners of her lips in a sweet arc and nodded obediently. At this time, the cell phone rang. It was Lu Ting calling.

The caller ID showed Yin Ningyou.

When she saw this name, the smile on Wen Li'er's lips faded and her heart felt a little stagnant.

Lu Ting freed up one hand to answer the call, and Yin Ningyou's sweet voice came from the other end of the line: "Brother Ting, haven't you packed your luggage yet? The ticket check is about to start. Are you on your way?"

"I have something to do now. If you can't wait, just fly over first."

Yin Ningyou immediately expressed her sympathy: "It's okay, I'm not in a hurry, Brother Ting, you take care of your things first, I'll wait for you no matter how long it takes. We agreed to go to Lin City together, Brother Ting, don't break your promise again like you did last time in Paradise on Earth."

Before Lu Ting could reply, his palms suddenly felt empty. When he lowered his eyes to look, Wen Li'er had already retracted her feet and hid them under the quilt.

"Uncle, I'm fine now. If you have anything to do, go and do it first."

After saying this, Wen Li'er quickly lay down and covered her head with the quilt. She was afraid that if she was a step slower, she would reveal her emotions that she could no longer hide in front of him.

Wen Li'er's voice was very soft, so Yin Ningyou on the other end of the phone only vaguely heard the woman's voice but couldn't hear what she said specifically.

Yin Ningyou's alarm bells immediately rang: "Brother Ting, who are you talking to? Is it a girl?"

Lu Ting felt that the person on the other end of the line was a bit noisy, and said in a low voice: "This is not something you should ask about."

Before Yin Ningyou could say anything else, Lu Ting hung up the phone.

His eyes fell on the small hill on the bed, and his tone was coaxing.

"Well, I haven't used the blood-dissolving spray on my sprained ankle yet."

The voice under the quilt was muffled, but motionless: "I can spray it myself, little uncle, you go and do your work."

After all, she was the child he raised, and Lu Ting could quickly tell whether the little girl was in a good or bad mood from her subtle emotional ups and downs.

"Are you unhappy?"

Lu Ting sat down beside the bed and said gently, "Then I won't leave tonight. There's no rush to charter a plane to Lin City tomorrow. Let's take care of the injury on my ankle first, okay?"

Wen Li'er's heart felt stuffy and achy.

She thought, Lu Ting, don't be so nice to me. You will never give me what I want, and you will even despise my dirty thoughts for it.

"I'm not unhappy, I'm just tired and want to sleep."

"I feel bad for my uncle because he has to travel back and forth, so you should hurry up and do your business. I have Aunt Wang to take care of me. When my uncle comes back from his business trip, he will see me full of life again."
