“It’s slightly painful, but I’m fine,” she said again. Though the sight of being ganged up on and beaten was truly frightening, only some of the kicks were painful, and they were pulling on her for the rest of the time. Thus, the injuries were not severe.
Seeing the red traces on her arms from the scratching, she flattened her lips and cried out, “It hurts…”
Yin Shaojie saw that, and his handsome face turned gloomy.
With a piercing gaze, he scanned the girls and said in an icy voice that would cause one to quiver, “Who scratched her?”
The girls were all frightened by his cold expression. They had never seen Young Master Jie like this. They trembled with fear and retreated a step.
“And who kicked her!” Yin Shaojie shouted again.
The two girls who kicked Mu Xiaoxiao showed fear on their faces. They tried to conceal it, but Yin Shaojie had already seen through them.
His cold gaze was fixated on their faces.
The two girls were scared pale, and their whole bodies began trembling.
“Young Master Jie… It’s not like that. We didn’t mean it…”
At this moment, Han Xue’er glowered at Mu Xiaoxiao. She pointed at her and said furiously, “Mu Xiaoxiao, you said that there was nothing between you and Young Master Jie. You liar! You big liar! s.l.u.t!”
Seeing Yin Shaojie looking as if he was going to stick up for her, Han Xue’er was infuriated and lost her senses. If not for Yin Shaojie, I would have run up to scratch this s.l.u.t’s face.
Hearing that, Yin Shaojie frowned. His dark eyes looked at Mu Xiaoxiao, who was in his arms, and he suddenly he let go of her.
He asked, in a rather impersonal tone, “You really told them that there was nothing between us?”
Noticing his anger, Mu Xiaoxiao was slightly anxious. She steadied herself and said hesitantly, “I…”
Han Xue’er looked at Yin Shaojie. Bearing her last hope, she asked, “Yin Shaojie, is there anything between the two of you? There’s nothing between you two, right? Then why are you so concerned for her?”
Mu Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but feel uneasy. She thought she might have hurt Yin Shaojie.
“Jie, I…”
Just as she was about to explain.
Suddenly, a voice said coldly, “There’s nothing between us.”
Mu Xiaoxiao was motionless.
He said… that there was nothing between us?
She didn’t think that he would say that. Her heart felt as if it had been crushed below a boulder. She was hurt and aggrieved.
She was clearly the one who had first denied their relations.h.i.+p and the one who had said that she didn’t want others to know of the relations.h.i.+p.
But… Upon hearing his answer, she still felt her heart ache. She was upset.
Her dark eyes grew watery.
She finally understood why he was mad. It was so hurtful.
“I’m sorry… Jie…” she whimpered, as tears formed in her eyes.
Han Xue’er was delighted after getting the answer that she wanted to hear. She immediately stared and Mu Xiaoxiao and said proudly, “Young Master Jie has spoken. He has nothing to do with you! You s.l.u.t! Don’t think that Young Master Jie will pity you for your tears!”
As he heard her calling names, Yin Shaojie was extremely annoyed, and he shouted sternly, “You, shut your mouth!”
Han Xue’er felt wronged. “Young Master Jie…”
As he saw a clear teardrop rolling down Mu Xiaoxiao’s cheeks, Yin Shaojie felt as if a blow had been dealt to his heart.
