30: Chapter 30 Muting Laughter 30: Chapter 30 Muting Laughter Skewer Aroma, a bustling food stall.
Julia Land kept her head down, eating away.
The spicy hot broth bubbled and simred in the pot.
Jas Thompson picked up a piece of tender tofu for her, “Still angry?
Here, eat so tender tofu since you like it.”
“I’ll order it myself if I want so,” Julia glanced up at him, her red lips even more vibrant against the spice.
Jas’s eyes darkened slightly, “I want you to have my ‘tender tofu.'”
No sooner had he spoken than the students at the next table covered their mouths to stifle their laughter.
With chopsticks in hand, Julia’s face, already red, flushed even more.
“Eat properly, don’t talk nonsense,” she warned him quietly.
“I’m not talking nonsense,” Jas said, his handso face serious as he offered her another piece of tofu, “Have my…”
Julia quickly stuffed a slice of beef into his mouth, “Shut up.”
With a faint smile, Jas chewed on the beef, “Not angry anymore?”
“I’m not angry.” Julia was just bashfully infuriated, there was nothing to be mad about.
Jas reached out, tucking a strand of her hair behind her ear.
The warmth of his fingertips brushed past her ear, causing Julia to thank him unnaturally, “Thank you.”
They ordered a lot of dishes and ended up overeating.
Seeing her rub her stomach, Jas sighed, “You ate too much, didn’t you?
Let’s go buy so digestive tablets from the pharmacy later.”
“Okay.” Julia burped unintentionally, unable to hold it in.
She had indeed eaten too much.
She had let herself go and indulged.
The pair left the food stall and looked for a pharmacy.
Julia sat on a chair outside the pharmacy, waiting for Jas to buy the digestive tablets.
A few drunk n passed by, noticing a beautiful woman sitting alone.
One of them whistled at Julia.
Drunk people can sotis be hormonally driven.
One whistled, and the others followed suit.
Julia’s heart tightened.
She would occasionally hear about such harassnt of won in the news.
She stood up, intending to walk into the pharmacy.
But the n encircled her.
“Miss, could you leave a phone number, maybe we can keep in touch?”
The strong sll of alcohol wafted over, the language brazen.
“How about you sleep with tonight?
I guarantee you a good ti.”
Inside, preparing to pay, Jas saw several n surrounding Julia outside.
He left the dicine on the counter and strode out.
Jas slapped away the lecherous hand reaching for Julia’s hair, smiling, “Sorry, gentlen, she already has a boyfriend.”
The drunken louts didn’t seem scared.
“Oh, she has a boyfriend, huh?”
Julia clutched at Jas’s clothes, “Let’s go.”
Fights with drunkards were prone to be unreasonable, and they were just two people – likely at a disadvantage.
With one hand still injured, she feared she wouldn’t be able to help if a fight broke out.
Jas looked at the drunkards indifferently.
While he wasn’t afraid of a fight, he worried that Little Violet might get scared.
He kept Julia close and made a gesture.
From two cars parked by the roadside, doors opened.
Ten ordinary-looking n with bulging biceps stepped out.
They moved swiftly, twisting the drunkards’ arms and pinning their heads to the ground.
Julia watched this scene in shock.
Wrapped in Jas’s embrace, he chuckled, “I still haven’t paid for the digestive tablets.”
He led her back into the pharmacy.
From the glass windows of the pharmacy, Julia watched the n take the drunkards away.
Stepping out of the pharmacy door, she chewed the dicine Jas fed her, “Were those your bodyguards?”
She had never realized he had bodyguards around him.
“Mm-hmm.”
“Oh.”
It dawned on Julia late.
“Do I need to hire bodyguards too?” she asked seriously.
Her net worth heaved in billions now.
Jas Thompson glanced at her and said seriously, “It’s about ti, a beautiful woman walking on the street isn’t safe.”
Three days had passed since that Skewer Aroma al, and Jas hadn’t seen Julia Land since.
Every ti he texted her, he would receive the sa reply: busy.
Doctor Thompson would see the word ‘busy’ and couldn’t help but sneer speechlessly.
Jas snorted: “Does that tiny house of yours really need three days to set up?”
Julia, seeing Jas’s ssage, snorted back: “You wouldn’t understand.”
Julia was genuinely busy, busy with moving into a new ho, decorating her place.
A three-bedroom apartnt.
Initially, she had asked Violet to live with her, but he declined.
“Julia, I’ll just rent the place next door, just call if you need anything.”
Violet smiled gently, sunlight reflecting off his white hair, giving off a warm vibe.
Julia didn’t force him; she cleaned his cane and handed it to him, “Little Violet, what would you like for dinner?”
Violet stood up, using his cane; his left leg was fitted with a prosthetic.
His illness and disability hadn’t led him to despair.
“Julia, I’ll take care of the cooking today.”
“Alright, I’ll take care of buying the groceries then.”
As Julia returned to the community after buying groceries at the supermarket, she passed a black sedan parked outside the neighborhood.
Suddenly, soone honked the horn from inside the car.
The car window rolled down.
Jas’s face appeared.
He looked coldly at the raggedy Julia.
Today, she wore a cheap T-shirt printed with a pink pig.
She didn’t have any makeup on.
But she was still as radiant as ever.
Jas glanced at the vegetables in her hand and said lazily, “Your hand still hasn’t healed, and yet you go shopping?
Get in.”
Julia approached him, lifting up a light bag of groceries, “You looking for ?
Sobody at ho is waiting for these groceries to cook.”
“Well, that’s just perfect; I haven’t had dinner yet.” Jas opened the door, preparing to get out.
Julia dared not invite him inside; she imdiately bent down to push him over and took the initiative to sit in the car and placed the groceries down.
As soon as the car door closed, he pressed against her.
His hot palm caressed her back.
“Little pig on your shirt, quite cute,” he said with a hoarse voice, teasingly mocking her clothes.
Then he complained about her clothes, “They just aren’t easy to take off.”
Julia pushed him with one hand, unable to budge him, and gave him a disdainful look, “Didn’t you say you had sothing to do?”
“Yeah, this is the sothing.
I have to leave Dunmore City tomorrow, ca especially to let you know.”
He suddenly chuckled in a low voice, “Why are your panties little pigs, too?”
Julia’s face turned red with anger; she not only put up with his taunts, but she also pushed away his hands and protected her piggy underwear.
“Shh, soone is passing by outside.” Julia instinctively looked outside the car, but although there was no one, she realized they were inside a car.
She was wearing a short skirt today and had almost made things easy for Jas.
“I’m getting out now.”
She didn’t ask where he was going when he left Dunmore City.
Unfortunately, the car door wouldn’t open.
Jas pinched her waist and lifted her onto his lap.
“Don’t worry; no one can see inside from outside.
I’m just holding you; is that not allowed either?”
By the ti she got out of the car, her little pig underwear was gone.
Jas smiled as he took out his phone, his strong arm extending out the car window, “While I’m away, rember not to check out other little wolves, got it?”
Julia responded with a mysteriously sweet smile, “…Goodbye, have a safe trip, take care, and farewell.”
This woman always had the last word.
Jas watched as Julia went into the neighborhood, smiling at the little pig panties he had taken off her.
The front driver and passenger doors opened, and the driver and Assistant Winters got in.
Assistant Winters turned to Jas, “BOSS?”
With cold eyes, Jas instructed, “Head to the airport, send soone to protect Little Violet.”
He couldn’t allow her to be bullied while he was away.
Assistant Winters acknowledged the order, then gave an update, “BOSS, regarding the girl we found in South Arica, our people have checked several tis and have not found anything suspicious.”
