Chapter 27: Chapter 25: You Want to Flirt with Sister-in-law_3

Lin Huai Shu, stiffly standing to the side, felt like his brain was exploding and yet he thought at this moment, so her name is Qiao Yuxian.

The weather is too hot, making people feel a bit irritable.

Qiao Yuxian gently took a breath, trying to suppress her emotions, but she didn’t succeed. She raised her hand to cover her eyes, a sob escaping involuntarily.

Gu Yanjing’s fingers, hanging at his side, trembled slightly.

"Gu Yanjing, you’re so annoying." Qiao Yuxian covered her eyes with both hands, her small voice tinged with tears, "I was okay already, forgot about it, why did you suddenly ask?"

Since coming out from the Qiao Family, she hadn’t shed a tear, but his sudden question made her unable to hold it in.

Lin Huai Shu was shocked, his face turned pale, his features distorted.

He even doubted he was not awake, mistaking someone else, he felt the person in front of him was not Gu Yanjing.

Moreover...wasn’t this girl just a cool girl? How? How did she become a delicate girl now?

Listening to her cries, Gu Yanjing’s expression grew colder, his fingers moved but stopped again, finally asking, "What’s wrong?"

Qiao Yuxian sobbed a couple of times, her voice full of grievance, unable to speak coherently, "My dad scolded me. How can he scold me? How can he think of me like that? He doesn’t trust me at all."

As she spoke, she stepped forward, covering her eyes with both hands, leaning against Gu Yanjing’s chest.

Lin Huai Shu’s heart jumped into his throat, Chu Zhengran was also surprised.

Their first thought was that Gu Yanjing would throw her away.

But he didn’t, he just stood there stiffly, letting her lean on him, feeling the warmth from her hand through his shirt.

"Even Ji Xiaoxiao knows it’s not true..." Qiao Yuxian’s voice was a bit muffled and blurred, "How can he say that about his own daughter? Am I really so unbearable to him? I even carefully prepared a gift for him, yet he said that about me. He’s so annoying, I never want to see him again."

Qiao Yuxian’s voice was small and tinged with tears, her grievance was overwhelming. She sounded pitiful, crying in a way that breaks hearts: "Other people spouting nonsense can be ignored, since they aren’t people I care about. But he’s my own dad. He treats me worse than a stranger does. It’s chilling."

By the end, Qiao Yuxian’s words became too blurry to understand.

Gu Yanjing only knew she kept talking, but what she was saying, he didn’t know.

He paused, raised a hand, and awkwardly patted her head.

Chu Zhengran watched, took a deep breath, surprised but also amused.

He never thought he’d live to see Gu Yanjing looking so helpless.

He laughed, Lin Huai Shu looked at him, moving clumsily to his side, pointing at Gu Yanjing: "Did you see that person?"

"Yes." Chu Zhengran responded faintly.

"Is that Gu Yanjing?" Lin Huai Shu’s voice shook.

"Yes." Chu Zhengran answered cooperatively.

Lin Huai Shu scratched his head, spun around in place: "Damn! What just happened!!!"

Chu Zhengran glanced at him, a slight smile at his lips, lazily saying: "What happened? Probably... you just tried to flirt with your sister-in-law."

Lin Huai Shu’s legs suddenly went weak, nearly falling to the ground. Fortunately, he grabbed Chu Zhengran’s arm.

Chu Zhengran looked at him unenthusiastically, pulled his hand away, then walked off.

Lin Huai Shu backed up a few steps, supporting himself against the wall behind him, unable to regain his composure for a long time.

What did he even do, would Gu Yanjing kill him?

Chu Zhengran went to get some tissues for Gu Yanjing.

Qiao Yuxian heard footsteps, came back to her senses, and stepped out of Gu Yanjing’s embrace.

Gu Yanjing glanced at Chu Zhengran, took the tissues, and handed them to Qiao Yuxian.

Qiao Yuxian took them, wiped off the tears. After wiping, she turned her head and glanced at Chu Zhengran.

Chu Zhengran wore a gentle smile on his face, looking warm like jade, a modest gentleman.

Qiao Yuxian’s eyes were red, her lashes still hung with tears, and her body still jerked intermittently. She glanced at him, then looked at Gu Yanjing, wiping tears that occasionally still fell, muttering, "Is he your friend too?"

Gu Yanjing used a tissue to dab at the tears hanging from her chin: "Yes."

"Why are all your friends so handsome?" Qiao Yuxian said, her nose a bit stuffy, looking pitifully at Gu Yanjing, murmuring, "I feel a bit embarrassed now. Actually, not a bit, very embarrassed."

Chu Zhengran was amused by her.

Gu Yanjing: "......"
