Chapter 422: Chapter 422 Difficulties Galore (1)_1
So, this was also why, for so many years, Liu Yuhan had been able to linger around Tian Jinlei, and yet Tian Jinlei had never laid a hand on her.
originally, Tian Jinlei had thought that once he got to university, Liu Yuhan would be far from him and no longer hang around him all the time. But his wishful thinking was harshly contradicted by reality. When Tian Jinlei saw Liu Yuhan in class, he almost exploded with rage.
The moment Tian Jinlei saw Liu Yuhan, his expression turned dark. They say a woman’s mood changes faster than flipping through a book, but Tian Jinlei’s changing face might very well give a book a run for its money. After glancing at Liu Yuhan, he immediately shifted his gaze away from her.
Seeing Cao Mengqi quietly sitting beside Liu Yuhan, Tian Jinlei’s expression softened quite a bit. He nodded slightly towards Cao Mengqi, as a way of greeting her.
"Didn’t you just say you were busy with something? Then hurry up and go," Tian Jinlei said, not wanting to see Liu Yuhan for even a moment longer, hastily signaled to his three brothers and left.
Liu Yuhan’s temper flared upon seeing Tian Jinlei’s annoyed attitude towards her, combined with the words he had just spoken. "Tian Jinlei, you stop right there. What attitude is this? If you dare to leave today, I’ll tell your parents how you bullied me when I get back," she burst out angrily.
usually, if Liu Yuhan said something like this, Tian Jinlei would definitely stop in his tracks. However, this time, Tian Jinlei didn’t even pause, but walked with determined strides towards the classroom door.
His companions, like Lin Shaowei, looked at Tian Jinlei with concern, several times seeming to want to speak, but despite their mouths moving, they ultimately said nothing.
Liu Yuhan, seeing that her tactic wasn’t working today, felt an even greater rush of anger. "Tian Jinlei, all you care about is Situ Xin’s foxy face, huh? Well, just wait and see, if her face gets ruined, whether you’ll still like her," Liu Yuhan blurted out, pushed to the brink by Tian Jinlei’s attitude, without thinking through her words.
And Cao Mengqi, who was standing beside Liu Yuhan and supposedly a good friend, didn’t bother to stop her at all. She was more than happy for Liu Yuhan to keep doing these thoughtless acts, so Tian Jinlei’s repulsion towards Liu Yuhan would reach its peak, which was precisely the outcome she desired.
Tian Jinlei had made up his mind not to turn back today, no matter what Liu Yuhan said. He believed he couldn’t keep retreating; the more he backed down, the more emboldened Liu Yuhan became. But when he heard Liu Yuhan threaten to disfigure Situ Xin, Tian Jinlei stopped dead in his tracks.
His face turned alarmingly dark. He stopped, turned his head, eyes seething with anger, and looked at Liu Yuhan. "Liu Yuhan, I can overlook whatever you know, whatever you’ve done to me, whatever you’ve done to the girls around me. But I assure you, if you dare to do anything to Situ Xin, I will never forgive you. Even if I have to use all my power, I will not let you off," he said, then turned away and left.
Dai Weicheng and the others cast a deep look at Liu Yuhan and then turned to follow Tian Jinlei’s steps.
Liu Yuhan, on the other hand, was stunned by Tian Jinlei’s words. It was the first time Tian Jinlei had warned her so sternly. The first time he had ever spoken to her so harshly. Usually, even if Tian Jinlei despised her, he would never say such heavy words.
Liu Yuhan was so shaken by Tian Jinlei’s words that her face turned frighteningly pale.
Cao Mengqi, hearing Tian Jinlei’s words, felt her hatred for Situ Xin intensify. She hadn’t expected Situ Xin to be so important in Tian Jinlei’s heart. Cao Mengqi hadn’t anticipated that Tian Jinlei would dare to challenge the power of the Liu family for Situ Xin’s sake.
Cao Mengqi looked at Liu Yuhan, who was clearly greatly shocked, and pretended to be concerned as she said, "Yuhan, are you okay? It’s too much how Jinlei is treating you. But you know, Jinlei has never been like this before. It’s all because of that vixen Situ Xin. If it weren’t for her, why would Jinlei get angry with you and say such heavy words?" Cao Mengqi malevolently added fuel to the fire, causing the flames of resentment in Liu Yuhan’s heart to burn even fiercer.
"Right, right, it’s all that vixen Situ Xin’s fault, all because of her that Jinlei treated me so harshly. I’m going to call my brother Xiao Yanlei right now to have him deal with that vixen Situ Xin," she said, grabbed her phone without hesitation, and dialed her brother Xiao Yanlei’s number.
"Yan Lei, brother," as soon as the call connected, hearing the voice of her kin, all the grievances Liu Yuhan had just felt surged up. After calling out once, she started sobbing uncontrollably.
At the Xiao Family, Liu Yuhan was the only girl, and from Old Master Xiao to their generation, everyone was extremely fond of her. The moment Xiao Yanlei on the other end of the phone heard her crying, he became instantly flustered. "Yuhan, what’s wrong? What’s happened, who’s bullying you? Tell your brother, I’ll get someone to handle him later."
"Whimper, whimper, whimper..." Liu Yuhan had never been severely warned like this; she felt extremely wronged. Now, she had found someone to confide in, and she couldn’t stop the tears from flowing.
"Yuhan, don’t cry now, be good. Crying won’t make you pretty. Tell your brother what made you upset, and I will solve it for you." If it weren’t for the important meeting Xiao Yanlei had to attend later, he would be driving to find Liu Yuhan right now. "Yuhan, where are you now? I have a meeting I cannot miss shortly, I’ll have your brother Yan Qin come to you, is that okay?"
As soon as Liu Yuhan heard her brother Xiao Yanlei say that he would send her other brother, Xiao Yanqin, to find her, she stopped crying. When it came to the Xiao family, the person she feared most wasn’t Old Master Xiao, nor her maternal uncles; it was her Big Brother, Xiao Yanqin.
It wasn’t that Xiao Yanqin didn’t care for her; he did, but his affection wasn’t without limits. If Liu Yuhan did something wrong, Xiao Yanqin wouldn’t cover for her or dote on her unconditionally, and he might even punish her. This had made her fear Xiao Yanqin more than anyone else from a very young age.
