Chapter 1117: Looks Like Xu Ye Can’t Escape This Beating
Beitang Lie’s heart skipped a beat when he saw Quan Jue’s reaction.
Oh, no.
It seemed like Xu Ye wouldn’t be able to escape this beating.
Beitang Lie was also unwilling to be implicated. Hence, he obediently shut his mouth and did not say anything else.
Bai Wanxi didn’t know that she had implicated Xu Ye. She sat in the car nervously and excitedly. From time to time, she would touch the seat and poke the window b.u.t.ton. She watched as the gla.s.s of the window rose and descended along with the b.u.t.ton. A childish smile appeared in her eyes. “Hahaha, how interesting! Jiaojiao, what’s this thing called?”
Chi Jiao explained patiently upon seeing her innocent smile, “This is a car. It’s powered by gasoline or electricity. Do you remember the electric lights last night? That was also powered by electricity.”
“Electricity is a really good thing. Wow! What a big car! Jiaojiao, why is that car bigger than ours?” Bai Wanxi’s eyes widened in surprise when she saw a truck driving past them.
“That isn’t a car. It’s a truck. It’s usually used to transport items. It might not be too comfortable for people to travel in it,” Chi Jiao said with a smile.
Her words didn’t extinguish Bai Wanxi’s enthusiasm. She couldn’t hide her antic.i.p.ation as she stared at the truck. “I want to ride this ‘truck’ if there’s a chance.”
“Miss Wanxi, you can take the train if you like rides. Oh right, there are also planes that can fly through the air!” Pei Yao had been observing Bai Wanxi through the rearview mirror. She felt that she behaved like an ignorant young girl. Bai Wanxi found everything interesting and didn’t look like a wicked person at all.
“What’s a plane? Can it really fly?” Bai Wanxi’s eyes were filled with endless yearning as she asked excitedly.
“Planes can indeed fly. I’ll take you on one if there’s a chance in the future,” Chi Jiao promised. But she couldn’t help feeling bitter when she saw Bai Wanxi’s happy expression.
She wasn’t sure if Bai Wanxi had a future, but she hoped that she did.
If She Qi had a way to revive Bai Wanxi without sacrificing anyone…
Chi Jiao was lost in her own world when she heard an anxious voice calling her.
“Jiaojiao, Jiaojiao!” Bai Wanxi called out to her as she shook her shoulders forcefully.
Only then did Chi Jiao come back to her senses. She quickly came back to the present and smiled at her. “Sister Wanxi, what’s wrong?”
“I should be the one asking you that, right? Yaoyao just said that we’re here and asked us to get out of the car, but you didn’t react at all. You scared me.” Bai Wanxi looked at her worriedly. “You look like you have something on your mind. Are you feeling unwell? Don’t hide it from me. Let’s go back and rest if you’re feeling unwell.”
Bai Wanxi was so concerned about Chi Jiao that she couldn’t bear to see her disappointed. “I’m fine. Let’s go.”
Pei Yao came forward to help open the car door as Chi Jiao spoke.
The three of them walked side by side into the mall.
