Even after Ru spoke, nobody moved an inch. She crossed her arms over her chest and tapped her foot on the floor impatiently. "Chop, chop! This young master has other matters to get to."
While Xu y was in a daze, her four brothers had the sa thought that they wouldn’t want to hurt such a lanky man before them.
"JieJie, why are they taking so much ti?" Cracking her knuckles, she added, "I do have a mood to let off so steam."
Her words were still hanging at the tip of her tongue when Xu y almost flew and stood before her brothers in a protective manner. Her stance amused Ru who thought she looked like a mother hen protecting her chicks.
"Y-You can’t hurt my brothers," Xu y stuttered a bit since it was her first ti standing against her Sensei. It felt weird for a million reasons she couldn’t possibly put in words.
"Oh? Mind telling why I can’t do that?" The way Ru emphasized on ’I’ made Xu y gulp visibly. Now, she knew how much of a torture it was to stand firm under the intimidating pressure of Ru.
"Because... I don’t want you to hurt them." Xu y’s voice ca out a bit weak.
"Hey, Little y, what are you saying? You don’t think we can deal with a single lanky guy like him?" Xu y straightforwardly shook her head at her brothers’ words.
"If it’s him... You don’t stand a chance." Xu y answered without a doubt.
Ru chuckled at her response earning herself a few weird looks.
"JieJie, your wife doesn’t want to hurt them." Jie grimaced a bit seeing how Xu y was still taking her brothers’ side. What about him?
"Although we don’t know you," He Jian started and Ru turned her green eyes to him. "I think you shouldn’t get involved. Jie actually hurt our little girl this ti."
"Did you ask him why he did that?" Ru asked calmly. "In my opinion, it’s you guys who need to stop jumping to conclusions about him just because Xu y said sothing. This matter just shows how little of a trust you have in him."
Ru’s words stunned everyone in the room. But the most baffled person was the one being discussed; Jie.
"Oi! Are you really standing up for ? But just yesterday you were yelling at for being wrong." Jie was perplexed at her contradictory behavior.
"Yesterday, it was you and . And let’s be honest we both will never call each other right. But right now, the matter is different. I can call my best friend wrong but I won’t let anyone else point that out." Was it odd that Jie felt all warm and fuzzy inside? She really cared about him in her own twisted way.
"Sensei, are you taking my husband’s side right now?"
"If you can take your best friends’ side, why can’t I do the sa?" Ru retorted plainly.
"But I thought you’ll always be on my side." Xu y’s voice turned soft.
"If you really want to compare yourself with Jie, girl you’re looking for-,"
"No need to continue," Jie’s voice cut off whatever she had in mind. He really didn’t want Ru to hurt Xu y’s feelings. "Baby, don’t listen to this jerk. He’s being an insensitive douchebag right now."
"Bloody Twat!" Ru snapped back.
"Dumba*s!" Jie retorted.
"Oh, bumr! I don’t want to face rubbish like you." Amusing chuckles made Ru scowl. "Ah, this is my fault for coming at the wrong ti."
Before Jie could stop her, Ru was already at the window saying, "Although I caught the fish, there is so shark yet to pull in. Let’s discuss the secret recipe later. Adios Amigo!"
Jie frowned at her parting words. There is soone else behind the accident? Who? He suddenly had a bad premonition about this.
"Who was that?" Jie didn’t know which one of them questioned it. But he knew how to answer that.
"He’s my best friend. No, scratch that. He’s more like a brother."
