Chapter 614: Why Are You Helping Me?

His feelings suddenly became complicated.

Wasn’t she indifferent to everything, isolated from the world?

Why did she start caring about him being targeted?

Just as Xiao Yi was completely baffled by Zhao Yuhua’s words and felt incredibly conflicted, Zhao Yuhua’s voice rang out again.

"I caught that person."

Zhao Yuhua seemed to be completely oblivious to the complex expression on Xiao Yi’s face as she continued indifferently.

"What?"

Xiao Yi almost thought he had misheard, and it took a while before he looked at Zhao Yuhua with an incredulous expression, his eyes seemingly staring at her as if she were a monster from another planet.

He felt that today’s Zhao Yuhua was too abnormal. Not only did she pay attention to the matter, but she also went and caught that person?

Caught which person... Xiao Yi’s expression suddenly changed, his gaze instantly revealing a cold glint, "You just said you caught that person? Where is he now?"

"Released."

Zhao Yuhua said indifferently.

After speaking, without waiting for Xiao Yi’s further questions, as if she had anticipated that he would ask, she added an explanation, "He’s a madman, not someone from our school."

"Madman? How do you know he’s a madman?"

Xiao Yi looked at Zhao Yuhua, puzzled.

"Well, his clothes still had a tag on them, he had escaped from a mental hospital."

Zhao Yuhua nodded, her expression seeming somewhat impatient, "His gaze was dull, it was obvious he wasn’t normal."

"Did you ask him who exactly directed him to do this?"

Seeing the expression on Zhao Yuhua’s face, Xiao Yi suddenly realized that his words just now seemed to carry some disbelief in Zhao Yuhua. His expression also involuntarily turned slightly embarrassed as he smiled, then his expression became stern as he continued, "I can assure you, I definitely don’t know any mentally ill person, nor have I offended one. I also don’t believe that a mentally ill person would run out of the blue and target me."

"I asked."

Zhao Yuhua looked at Xiao Yi’s stern expression, her eyes showing a hint of surprise, but she did not say anything, only continued indifferently.

"What did he say?"

Xiao Yi tensed, his eyes becoming colder, determined to teach a harsh lesson to whoever it was, no matter who it was!

"Big brother."

Zhao Yuhua gave him a light look and said indifferently.

"Big brother?"

Xiao Yi was stunned for a moment, then finally understood Zhao Yuhua’s meaning. His expression instantly turned listless, realizing he had still not gotten the answer he wanted.

"Hmm."

Zhao Yuhua nodded slightly.

"Where is that person now?"

Xiao Yi suddenly remembered something, and his eyes lit up once again. Looking at Zhao Yuhua with some urgency in his voice, he said, "Unless it’s a particularly troublesome mental illness, there might still be a chance to get some information from him."

"Let him go."

Zhao Yuhua looked at Xiao Yi’s expression and her face briefly stiffened, seemingly puzzled by his reaction, but she responded to him anyway.

"Sigh..."

Upon hearing Zhao Yuhua’s words, the glimmer of hope that had just arisen in Xiao Yi turned back into disappointment again.

"Hmm?"

A look of confusion appeared on Zhao Yuhua’s face. A madman, if not released, what use could he be? What more could he ask?

"Nothing, let it be if he’s released," Xiao Yi said.

Xiao Yi knew what Zhao Yuhua was puzzled about, but he didn’t want to explain further, just smiled lightly.

Yet, he couldn’t help but sigh softly in his heart, shook his head, and felt somewhat regretful; however, he also knew that he couldn’t blame Zhao Yuhua for this. She didn’t know that he might be able to use his medical skills to extract some information.

"Oh."

Zhao Yuhua didn’t ask further and just nodded slightly.

"This time, I really thank you."

A sincere look of gratitude appeared on Xiao Yi as he looked at Zhao Yuhua. He had not expected that Zhao Yuhua would not only pay attention to his affairs this time, but she had also actively pursued the matter and captured the person involved.

Thinking about how he had initially lost his temper over such a trivial issue, a feeling of guilt and inexpressible shame suddenly arose in his heart.

In comparison, he, a grown man, seemed somewhat inadequate.

"It’s nothing."

Zhao Yuhua’s gaze briefly swept in front of her as she said indifferently, "If there’s nothing else, I should leave.".

After saying this, she didn’t wait for Xiao Yi to say anything and turned to continue walking toward a creamy white Toyota, which was her car.

"Wait a moment."

Watching Zhao Yuhua’s beautiful figure from behind, Xiao Yi hesitated for a moment before finally speaking up.

"Hmm?"

Zhao Yuhua stopped, looking back at Xiao Yi with a puzzled expression, wondering what else he wanted to discuss after everything seemed to have been said.

"You... why did you help me this time?"

A complex expression appeared in Xiao Yi’s eyes as he looked at the puzzled Zhao Yuhua.

About this question, he was too curious not to ask. Without understanding it, he always felt an uncomfortable feeling. He truly didn’t think there was any special friendship between him and Zhao Yuhua.

Although after this sports meet, many people thought since they were in the same school and attended classes together, and both excelled in sports, their relationship should be very good.

But Xiao Yi knew very well that, in fact, even though they attended many classes together in a large classroom and even sat quite close to each other, their relationship was merely nodding acquaintances, barely speaking to each other, only slightly more interaction during this sports meet!

Of course, he was not foolish enough to think Zhao Yuhua took a romantic interest in him.

This notion, from the beginning to now, he had always firmly believed, even if Zhao Yuhua had learned about some of his fighting abilities and even his possible cultivator’s status, he did not think Zhao Yuhua would fancy him or take an interest in him.
