$u Jin almost burst into tears when she heard Hou Wan’er’s voice. She quickly spoke into the phone.
“Wan’er, it’s me… Su Jin.”
“What? Su Jin, how is that possible? Su Jin can’t even speak. Who are you? Why are you lying to me?”
!!
$u Jin smiled wryly when she heard Hou Wan’er’s words.
“Wan‘er, this… this matter is a little complicated. Come find me and we will talk when we meet. I’m at the Xi family’s… manor.”
Hou Wan’er coldly told her that she wouldn’t go and was about to hang up the phone when Su Jin quickly said, “Wan’er, both my arms are broken and I’m using my feet to call you. I need your help with something, Is that okay?”
$u Jin wanted Hou Wan’er to find out where Xi Qiye had gone.
Also, who was the girl she saved that day? Why was she chased by those people to the point where she had to resort to jumping down?
$u Jin realized that the girl’s escape was probably related to the wounds on her body.
Girls were naturally vulnerable. There were many girls in this world who were forced to do things they shouldn’t do every day.
Therefore, Su Jin needed to know what was going on as soon as possible so that she could save the girl.
According to the girl’s condition and the words she was mumbling to herself, the girl might just be one of the victims.
Thinking of this, Su Jin said seriously, “Wan’er, this matter is very important. You’re the only one who can help me with this now. Can you please help me?”
Hou Wan’er, who was about to ignore Su Jin, suddenly became worried when she heard Su Jin say that both of her arms were broken.
Hou Wan’er said, “Wait for me. I’ll be there ina bit.”
After saying this, Hou Wan’er hung up the phone and drove the family’s sports car as fast as she could to get to the manor.
After dozens of minutes, Hou Wan’er brought Su Jin back to her house and helped Su Jin take a bath.
Then, she arranged for someone to do what Su Jin had asked of her.
Although Hou Wan’er was cold towards Su Jin, she still made a bowl of noodles for Su Jin during dinner.
Su Jin was touched as she ate the noodles.
“Wan’er, when I’m a man in my next life, I’ll definitely marry you.”
Hou Wan’er stopped moving her chopsticks and looked coldly at Su Jin.
Only now did this brat realize how good she was.
Hou Wan’er said calmly, “You only know how to talk. You still…”
Before she could finish, she was interrupted by a cold, devil-like voice.
“Little Mute, who said you could leave the house?”
$u Jin quickly tuned around and saw Xi Chenxiao at the door with a gloomy expression. She slurped her noodles and mouthed curiously, “How did you know I was here?”
Wasn’t the devil busy every day? And he often worked late too. Why was he back so early today?
Xi Chenxiao, with an icy look on his face, quickly walked in and picked Su Jin up.
His eyes were full of warning and his chilly expression made the temperature in the room drop continuously.
“In the future, you can’t take the Little Mute away without my permission. Or else, don’t blame me for being merciless to the Hou family.”
His tone was very threatening, No one knew how worried he was when he saw Su Jin was not around when he got home.
Xi Chenxiao also did not know why he cared so much about Little Mute.
He simply wanted to keep her in his sight so that he could better protect her from being bullied.
Hou Wan’er looked speechlessly at Su Jin’s arms and then at Xi Chenxiao’s gloomy face.
She said, “I was just helping her. She said she hadn’t showered for a few days and asked me to help her.”
“Ididn’t do much either. I just helped her shower, dried her hair, and made a bowl of noodles.”
Xi Chenxiao’s chilly expression got colder when he heard this.
He looked at Su Jin gloomily and his eyes were devoid of warmth. He wished he could strangle her right now.
He fiercely said, “Didn’t I ask you? And you told me you who didn’t want to shower!”
Xi Chenxiao did not know why, but he did not want anyone else to touch her.
$u Jin smiled awkwardly when she heard this and quickly mouthed, “Well, it’s because you’re very busy and I don’t want to waste your time. Besides, I’m a woman and you’re a man. It’s not appropriate..”
