Chapter 372 - 371 Mom Wakes Up (2)
Ou Jue strode out, placing both hands on Xiyan’s shoulders, his gaze quickly scanning her, "Are you alright?""I’m fine, but Niannian is hurt. Let’s get her to the hospital quickly," Xiyan said, her eyes fixed on Chi Niannian, filled with worry.
Chi Niannian looked at Xiyan, let out a soft laugh, and shook her head, "No need for a hospital, just buy some band-aids from a drugstore, it’s not that serious."
"Niannian, why are you so good to me?" You saved me time and time again.
Because...
Chi Niannian lowered her eyes, a complex expression in her gaze.
Chi Cheng’s eyes swept around the surroundings, pointing with his hand, "There’s a drugstore across the street."
An Ran nodded vigorously, "Anyway, let’s bandage it up quickly first."
Chi Cheng escorted the three girls across the street and headed towards the drugstore.
Ou Jue didn’t rush to follow, his cold gaze landed on the drunken man lying on the ground nearby.
Being stared at with such sharp eyes, the drunkard panicked a bit.
Stepping forward, Ou Jue kept one hand in his pocket and stepped on the drunkard with his foot, bending slightly, his voice laced with a strong interrogation, "Who sent you here? Hmm?"
"Ouch..." the drunkard feigned madness, "My head hurts, I want to go home... No, my stomach feels terrible, ugh..."
Saying that, he turned to the side and desperately began to dry heave.
As if truly blackout drunk.
"Cut the act, I’ll ask you one last time, who sent you?" Ou Jue’s eyes were cold, his jawline taut. He spoke, increasing the pressure on the drunkard slightly, his ink-black hair tousled by the wind, exuding an aura of a strong killer instinct.
A mysterious drunkard appeared out of nowhere, targeting that little fool directly.
Could it be a coincidence?
Heh, he never believed in coincidences!
The drunkard panicked, "Let me go, let me go—"
"Still not talking? I don’t mind killing you right now."
"Cough—" The drunkard, with Ou Jue’s foot on him, found his breathing growing weaker with each added pressure, his eyes filled with panic and he hurriedly begged for mercy, "Young Master, I’m wrong, someone hired me! She gave me a girl’s photo and information, told me to find a way to teach her a lesson, I was instructed by someone!"
"Oh? Who?"
"Xia Shiyi, it’s Xia Shiyi!"
Xia Shiyi?
Again, it’s the Xia Family?!
Ou Jue’s eyes narrowed dangerously.
It seemed he could close the net early!
-
In the drugstore.
The shop assistant was bandaging Chi Niannian’s wound.
Ou Jue pushed open the door of the drugstore, walking in with a fierce presence.
Looking at the still-frightened Xiyan, Ou Jue rubbed her little head, "Idiot, next time if you encounter danger, just call my name."
Xiyan pouted, "The situation just now was so urgent, calling your name wouldn’t have helped, luckily Niannian was there."
"Got it." Ou Jue bent down, his gaze level with Xiyan’s, his long fingers pinching Xiyan’s cheek, "From now on, even if you go to the bathroom, I’ll accompany you."
... Big brother, I didn’t mean that.
The point is, luckily Niannian was there, right.
Xiyan desperately gave Ou Jue a look.
Ou Jue stood up straight, hands in his pockets, casting Chi Niannian a sidelong glance, "Earlier, thanks."
Chi Niannian didn’t look at him, instead, she looked down at her wound, "How rare, Young Master Ou actually says thank you."
