Chapter 223: Jiaojiao, Who Are You Meeting?
The next day, Chi Jiao woke up early and went downstairs as she hummed a song.
In the living room, Chi Mingwei was eating breakfast. “Jiaojiao, come here. The kitchen prepared your favorite sunny-side-up eggs this morning. You can eat them before going to school.”
“It’s alright, Daddy. I’ve made an appointment with someone else this morning, so I’ll leave first.” Chi Jiao looked at her phone and realized that Quan Jue had already sent her a message. He said that he was waiting for her at the door. She was so anxious that she ran out of the house.
“Wait, Jiaojiao. Who are you meeting?” When Chi Mingwei saw her skipping away like a little bunny, a bad feeling instantly arose in his heart. He placed his unfinished breakfast down and hurriedly followed her.
Chi Mingwei followed Chi Jiao carefully until they reached the entrance of the villa.
Even from afar, Chi Mingwei could still see the handsome youth on a bike at a glance.
Under the sunlight, the young man in the simple school uniform was so good-looking that he looked like he had just walked out of a comic. He shone radiantly.
Chi Jiao ran towards Quan Jue. When he saw her, his lips couldn’t help but curl into a doting smile.
“Why are you running so quickly? What if you fall?” Quan Jue reached out and helped Chi Jiao fix her messy hair.
“I was afraid that you would get anxious from waiting.” Chi Jiao smiled and hugged his arm. “Brother Quan, let’s go.”
When Chi Mingwei saw this scene, he almost wanted to rush forward and shout, “Let go of my daughter!”
However, Jiaojiao was the one clinging to Quan Jue. The young man and young lady looked at each other, and it was as if pink bubbles had filled the air.
Chi Mingwei could tell that Jiaojiao was very happy. The smile on her face came from the bottom of her heart. It was pure and beautiful, and he couldn’t bear to disturb her.
The last time, he couldn’t bear to disturb her either because she was happy!
It seemed like Jiaojiao would always be smiling happily when she was with Quan Jue.
Chi Mingwei was heartbroken. Gloom filled his heart, and it felt like a breath of air was stuck in his stomach, unwilling to go up or down.
He was bitter and confused. How did his adorable daughter end up in Quan Jue’s hands?
No matter how good-looking Quan Jue was or how perfect he was, Chi Mingwei still couldn’t accept the fact that the cabbage he had painstakingly raised was being taken away just like that!
Chi Jiao had no idea about her father’s hidden bitterness. “Brother Quan, you haven’t had breakfast yet, right? I want to eat the omelet at the shop near our school gate.”
“Alright, hop on. I’ll bring you there,” Quan Jue said.
As Chi Jiao sat behind him, Quan Jue rode his bicycle and drove her towards their school.
After parking his bicycle at the entrance, Quan Jue bought two sets of breakfast and chatted with Chi Jiao as they walked.
“Didn’t you say that you had something to tell me last night?” As Quan Jue spoke, he inserted the straw into the soy milk packet and brought it to Chi Jiao’s mouth.
Chi Jiao took a sip, and her cheeks were filled with the delicious omelet. “Brother, do you still remember Officer Huo Chen? Yesterday, Officer Huo came to find me. He said that the person who attacked Xu Ye previously was a powerful Esper, and it was the one who attacked us previously. Therefore, 117 Special Forces will send someone to especially stay by our side and protect us today, in case the Esper tries to harm us again.”
Quan Jue narrowed his eyes. “Officer Huo came to our school to find you?”
Seeing that he didn’t seem to care about 117 Special Forces at all, Chi Jiao blinked her big eyes and replied smoothly, “When I left school, I saw Officer Huo waiting for me at the school gate. However, to make it easier for him to contact me in the future, I’ve already exchanged numbers with him. If anything happens to me, I can look for him any time.”
