Chapter 626: 612, She’s a Tiger Mom (4)_1
Zhan Mingyan watched his retreating figure, sighed lightly, and turned back.
“Your suitor?” Jian Qing asked teasingly.
Zhan Mingyan sat down and humd in affirmation.
“My mother keeps pushing us together, but I just see him as a friend.”
At this point, the first half of the ga had ended.
Jian Luo slumped to the ground, her delicate face flushed.
“Here.”
Black Jack unscrewed the bottle cap, squatted in front of him, and passed the water bottle.
Jian Luo grabbed it and took several gulps.
“Take it slow.”
Black Jack placed a towel on his head ssing up his chestnut-brown hair.
“Black Jack, just keep babying him. Look at how terrible his stamina is; he’ll have to be sent back to the Jian Family headquarters for training sooner or later,” said Bai Jue, drinking water and complaining.
After finishing the water, Jian Luo glared at him, “You’re the terrible one.”
“I will baby him. You got a problem with that?” Black Jack stood up, pulled him to his feet, and shot back at Bai Jue.
Jian Luo grinned and stuck his tongue out at Bai Jue.
“…”
Two against one, they were bullying him because he was alone, weren’t they?
These two ungrateful kids. How many tis had he played cupid for them!?
Elsewhere, the “dog food” was being distributed.
Jian Qing, with a clean towel, was patting off the sweat from Quan Jingwu’s forehead as he drank his water.
He put down the water bottle, pulled her into his arms.
“What do you want to eat later?”
“I want the food from Qianshi Restaurant.” She responded.
“No hot pot.” Quan Jingwu clarified.
Jian Qing pouted.
Could this man stop being so sharp.
“Airfield, I didn’t expect you to be so prickly, but you seem to have a lot of luck with n. That man got his heart broken by you and still had the guts to co find you. It’s quite touching, even to an outsider like . Perhaps, you should consider settling.” Bai Jue teased, sitting beside her with a mischievous grin on his handso face.
Zhan Mingyan clenched her fist and glared fiercely at him, “None of your business whether my romantic fortune is good. I am not like you, surrounded by beauties.”
Such a bitter tone.
Bai Jue’s eyes darkened, the amused smile on his lips deepened, “Are you jealous, or did you just swallow a sour grape?”
“Hmph!”
Zhan Mingyan plucked herself up as if soone had stepped on her tail.
She laughed, trying to hide her embarrassnt, “Jealous of you? You must be joking. I see no reason to be jealous. Stop being so narcissistic.”
“Tsk tsk, if you’re not jealous then you’re not. Why are you getting so worked up?” Bai Jue reclined, comfortably gazing at her.
“Now you owe
two favors, shouldn’t your attitude be a little better?”
Zhan Mingyan frowned, “I’m grouchy because you keep mocking .”
“I’m mocking you?”
Bai Jue’s smile turned strange.
Zhan Mingyan nodded affirmatively, “You are not only mocking
but also annoying .”
“Right, then don’t ask
for any help in the future.” Bai Jue said leisurely.
“Hmph, as if…” Zhan Mingyan huffed and turned her head away.
“Bai Jue, there is sothing going on between you two?” Jian Luo asked quietly.
“Drop it, there’s nothing between us.” Bai Jue rolled his eyes at him and said leisurely.
“Exactly, absolutely nothing.”
Zhan Mingyan grabbed a towel and threw it in Bai Jue’s face, turned and stord off.
Jian Qing fell into Quan Jingwu’s arms laughing, thoroughly amused.
“Bai Jue, aren’t you the one who always pampers beauties? How ungentlemanly of you today.” Jian Luo teased.
Bai Jue reached up to pull the towel off his face and scoffed, “Do you think she looks like a beauty? At best, she’s a tigress.”
And one with sharp claws at that.
“I think she seems quite gentle. If you hadn’t upset her with your harsh words, she wouldn’t have been so flustered.” Jian Luo teased.
“Gentle? Why don’t you go after her then?” Bai Jue’s voice was icy.
“…”
Jian Luo felt a cold chill and inwardly cursed.
Damn Bai Jue, dragging him into his own ss.
“Enough, let’s finish the rest of the ga so we can eat.” Jian Qing intervened.
Jian Luo imdiately shot her a grateful look.
At the critical mont, his elder sister was the one he could count on.
…
The room was dimly lit and sowhat damp.
In the empty room, a woman was tied to a chair.
Footsteps echoed from behind, but the woman bound to the chair didn’t react, she remained motionless.
The man halted, looked down at the woman on the chair, a cruel smile sketched on his lips.
“Wake her up.”
“Yes.”
A goon on the side emotionlessly tossed a bucket of water on the woman.
“Ah–”
The unconscious woman suddenly opened her eyes and scread.
“Daisy, long ti no see.”
The hoarse voice of the man echoed throughout the room, making it even creepier.
“We… Walter!”
Daisy looked up, in the dim light, a cruel smile flashed across the man’s face. She looked surprised.
“What are you doing here?”
Walter laughed arrogantly, walked up a step, and forcefully grabbed her hair, forcing her to look up, “Daisy, do you really think you could hide from
in China?”
“Walter, please let
explain.”
As her scalp was painfully pulled, Daisy sucked in a breath of air, her voice trembling, “I wasn’t trying to hide from you, I ca to China for sothing else.”
“Sothing else to do?” Walter sneered and his grip on her hair tightened.
“Are you taking
for a fool?”
“No, really, Walter, I’m not lying. You want money, right?” Daisy hastily chid in, “Khan is in China, he’s the reason I ca here.”
“Go on.”
Daisy responded, “Khan doesn’t trust
now so I must lay low. Only when he trusts
again can I get more money from him.”
“Why should I believe you, Daisy? I’ve already given you a lot of ti. I can’t wait any longer, understand?” Walter’s face was filled with grimace.
