BXBX NOVEL Chapter 578 never ever be afraid
This meant that he had already partially admitted that her most beloved daughter - the who couldn’t possibly do anything bad in his eyes – had indeed done something wrong. Considering the other’s huge bias, admitting that was already a huge step.
Yu Jiao could only think of one person who fit the bill – Luo Yan’s father. One, the other was someone her stepfather would reluctantly listen to. And second, she was Luo Yan’s friend. If Luo Yan asked his father to intercede for her, he would no doubt do just that. Just by seeing how much his brothers treasured Luo Yan, his father would definitely be the same.
That’s why she asked Luo Yan that question.
"No, I didn’t ask Dad," Luo Yan answered.
Yu Jiao felt at a loss when she heard the other’s answer. If it had nothing to do with Luo Yan’s father, then was it possible that her stepfather did this on his own accord without anyone influencing him?
"Does this have something to do with that wicked stepsister of yours?"
Her confusion was temporarily halted because of what Luo Yan said next. She smiled helplessly. "Well, I just thought that you asked your father to talk to my father so Mo Jian wouldn’t bother me anymore. But if you didn’t ask your father, then my guess was obviously wrong."
When her stepfather apologized, she really thought that that was indeed the case. She even guessed right after that the reason Mo Jian wasn’t bothering her these past days after that incident was because of that.
"I didn’t talk to my Dad about that. But I did mention a bit about it to my older brother."
Yu Jiao was surprised to hear that. Luo Yan mentioned it to his older brother? Then, could it be that instead of Luo Yan’s father, it was his older brother who intercede in this situation?
The handsome face of Luo Ren suddenly appeared in her mind. And for some reason, her heart temporarily skipped a beat. She stopped, shocked by her reaction. She clutched at her chest. What was that just now?
She shook her head and forced her mind to return to the topic at hand. "Why did Yan Yan tell that to Brother Ren?"
She was a bit embarrassed thinking that Luo Ren now knew that she was so easy to bully. Again, for some unknown reason she couldn’t explain, she didn’t want the other to think of her as weak.
"Sorry, Jiao Jiao. I didn’t do it on purpose," Luo Yan quickly apologized. "Remember when we had lunch together with Brother? Well, he noticed that something was not right with your expression that day. So, he asked me what happened. I mean, really happened. I couldn’t lie, so, I could only tell him the truth. I’m sorry if I overstepped."
"No, no, it’s okay. It’s fine, really," Yu Jiao quickly said. She didn’t want Luo Yan to feel guilty about something so small. "I probably should thank Brother Ren, then."
"It’s alright, Jiao Jiao. If you think my brother shouldn’t have done that, you can go ahead and scold him," Luo Yan said with a bit of indignant tone. "I promise, he won’t fight back."
Yu Jiao’s tight nerves finally loosened when he heard her friend’s suggestion. "Well, I will take that as a consideration," she jokingly responded. "But in the meantime, can I have Brother Ren’s number?"
There was a temporary silence on the other side. Before she could ask if there was something wrong, Luo Yan had already spoken. His voice sounded very enthusiastic. As if he was very happy that she asked for his brother’s number.
"I will send it to you later."
"Okay. Then, I’ll hung up now. I still have to go back to that lunch," she said.
"If you need anyone to talk to right after that lunch, I’m just one call away," Luo Yan said. "If I didn’t answer immediately, you can just call my older brother. If it’s you, he’ll definitely always be available."
Yu Jiao felt inexplicably shy hearing that last part. Why did it feel like Luo Yan was teasing her?
She ended the call and put back her phone in the small sling she’s carrying.
When she walked out of the stall, she almost immediately stopped just as quick. Because her gaze collided with a pair of eyes full of hatred.
It was Mo Jian.
"You- what are you doing here?" she couldn’t help but blurt out.
She didn’t expect the other to suddenly appear here. Could it be that she also came here with her mother and the other’s father? No, if that was the case, then Mo Guang Li should have just let Mo Jian apologized on her own instead of doing it himself. After all, it would look more ’sincere’. But the fact that he didn’t meant that he couldn’t force his daughter to do so.
Then, what was this girl doing here?
Could it be that she followed and had been secretly spying on them? And then when she saw Yu Jiao going to the toilet, she also followed? But for what? To have a confrontation with her? Was that it?
Looking at Mo Jian’s expression right now as if she wanted to eat her alive, that seemed to really be the case.
Yu Jiao clenched her fists and stood her ground. If that was really the case, then she’s not afraid to face her head on. Mo Jian was nothing but a bully. A bully who thought she was justified in everything she does.
Yu Jiao would never ever be afraid of a bully again. Not in this life.
