“Wanwan, are you okay?” Xia Chen reached out to touch Xia Wan’s neck, which was still slightly red, and then moved his hand towards her shoulder.
Xia Wan comforted him by patting his hand. “I’m fine, that guy can’t hurt me.”
“Brother, you’ll take Liu Hua home later, make sure you watch her get home safely,” Xia Wan instructed.
Although Brother Fang and his men were taken away by Officer Song, it’s uncertain if there are others from their group hiding in the shadows.
She didn’t feel at ease letting Liu Hua go home alone, so having Xia Chen accompany her seemed like a good idea.
Xia Chen nodded vigorously, about to agree, but Lin Chao intervened. “I’ll have someone send them home later, don’t worry!”
With Lin Chao’s a.s.surance, Xia Wan felt more at ease. “Then I’ll trouble you with this.”
Lin Chao made a phone call, then turned to Xia Chen. “It’s arranged, a car will come to pick you up later.”
Xia Wan, holding Liu Hua’s hand, comforted her for a while, then said to Lin
Chao, “Let’s go! We shouldn’t keep Officer Song waiting too long!”
“Alright!” Lin Chao led Xia Wan to the car, driving towards the county police station.
As soon as the car left, Song Zhi stood up, pushing aside a few people gathered at the shop entrance and watched the car drive away.
“I’ve always said Xia Wan is not simple. Look how all these men are rushing to protect her,” Song Zhi said disdainfully.
“Song Zhi! You don’t know the truth, don’t talk nonsense!” Xia Chen shouted angrily at Song Zhi.
“What truth?” Song Zhi snorted coldly, “Aren’t the eyes the best witness?”
“Look at that man with two soldiers, how amorous his eyes are when he looks at Xia Wan! ”
“When he saw Xia Wan being bullied by that thug, his eyes nearly popped out!”
“And look at Officer Song, he came here to deal with the gangsters collecting protection fees.”
“But who knows if he came here specifically because he knew Xia Wan was here!”
“His eyes never left Xia Wan from beginning to end!”
Listening to Song Zhi’s increasingly outrageous words, Xia Chen’s face grew darker.
Already worried about Xia Wan’s safety, and feeling helpless about the situation, Xia Chen now wished he could punch Song Zhi.
But after all, Song Zhi is a woman, and Xia Chen would feel guilty if he hit her.
Just as Xia Chen was struggling with this dilemma, a slap sound rang out on Song Zhi’s face.
Song Zhi incredulously covered her cheek, staring at the person who had slapped her.
The other cla.s.smates turned their surprised gazes to Liu Hua, standing in front of Song Zhi.
“Shut up!” Liu Hua, full of anger, confronted Song Zhi. “You were just hiding in the corner like a coward, and now you come out to steal the limelight?” “If you can, like Xia Wan, lend a hand when others are in trouble!”
“Otherwise, keep your mouth shut! n.o.body wants to hear your nonsense!”
After saying this, Liu Hua turned and pulled Xia Chen towards the other side of the shop.
The other students looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
Song Zhi, covering her face, reacted after a while and suddenly burst into tears.
She had never been treated like this before!
Being suppressed by Xia Wan was one thing, but now even Liu Hua dared to stand up to her!
The more Song Zhi thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt, wanting to confront Liu Hua to reclaim her dignity, but she shrank back under Xia Chen’s glare.
Zhou Chen came out to comfort Song Zhi, then said to the other students: “Today’s events have been distressing for everyone. It’s probably best for everyone to disperse and go home to rest. ”
With Zhou Chen’s words, the students, who were already planning to leave, quickly departed in groups.
“Song Zhi, I’ll take you home,” Zhou Chen offered kindly to Song Zhi, making her feel a bit strange, but since everyone else had left, she had no reason to stay.
“I’ll call someone to pick me up,” Song Zhi said resentfully, her face still bearing marks.
Zhou Chen thought to himself that this was a good thing, as it would save him the trouble of finding transportation.
Although Song Zhi’s family situation wasn’t great, her father cared about appearances and had borrowed a car to keep up appearances.
Song Zhi made a phone call and then waited for her father to pick her up..
