Chapter 380 - 393: Miss Liao has been looking at me. Is there something on my face?
"I’m sorry, she... couldn’t be saved. Please accept my condolences.""My daughter, she’s only in her teens... it can’t be..."
The little girl’s mother fainted directly onto the floor. Han Xi quickly supported her and pinched the philtrum. A few seconds later, the little girl’s mother slowly opened her eyes.
The little girl’s father grabbed the principal’s collar, yelling in a fit of anger, "Give me back my daughter. I’m not done with you."
"I’m sorry, it happened because we didn’t manage the students well."
A crowd had already gathered at the entrance of the operating room. Everyone was talking, saying how it’s such a pity that a good child is gone just like that.
Han Xi helped the little girl’s mother stand up from the ground: "Auntie, she’s already gone. Please accept my condolences. She’s inside, you can take her home now."
The little girl’s mother stumbled into the operating room, holding her daughter’s now cold hand, tears continuously falling down.
After watching the family of three leave, Han Xi returned to the office, but her heart remained unsettled.
Every year, there are too many children who choose to end their lives because they can’t bear school violence. Han Xi really feels sorry for them.
......
In the evening after work, Han Xi and Lu Jinghan went to the Jinhai Club together. The car stopped at the entrance of the club, and Lu Jinghan got out, holding Han Xi’s hand as they walked in.
When they entered the private room, Liao Tingxiao and Liao Tingting were already there.
"Han Xi, you’re here."
Liao Tingxiao stood up from his chair, smiling softly as he looked at Han Xi.
"Sorry, there was a bit of traffic on the road, so we’re late."
"It’s okay, we just got here too."
Lu Jinghan took off his coat and sat down next to Han Xi, his chiseled, deep features showing no emotion.
"Mr. Lu, do you remember me?"
Liao Tingting smiled gently at Lu Jinghan, her dark eyes filled with a watery tenderness.
Lu Jinghan looked up thoughtfully: "Have we met?"
"Mr. Lu, you really have a poor memory. A few days ago at the restaurant, I mistook you for a friend of mine."
"I seem to have a vague impression." Lu Jinghan said casually.
Liao Tingxiao took the menu from the waiter’s hand and placed it in front of Han Xi: "Let’s order first. See what you like to eat?"
Han Xi took the menu and didn’t decline, ordering casually.
After ordering, the waiter quickly brought the dishes to the table. Liao Tingxiao picked up the red wine from the table and leaned over to pour some into Han Xi’s wine glass: "Today’s meal is specifically to thank you for saving me. Let’s have a drink."
"Actually, Mr. Liao, there’s really no need to be so formal. In that situation, I would have saved anyone."
Han Xi raised her wine glass and took a small sip, glancing sideways at Liao Tingting, only to find she had been watching Lu Jinghan all the time.
Under the table, Han Xi’s small hand pinched Lu Jinghan’s hard, feeling a bit jealous inside.
Lu Jinghan smiled slightly, clasping Han Xi’s small hand with a backhand grip, knowing exactly what his little wife was thinking.
"Miss Liao has been looking at me. Is there something on my face?"
Being so openly pointed out by Lu Jinghan, Liao Tingting didn’t feel embarrassed at all: "No, I just find Mr. Lu so handsome, so I couldn’t help but take a few more glances. Miss Han shouldn’t mind, right?"
"I mind quite a bit. Miss Liao, you should focus on enjoying your meal."
