Chapter 27
“You… What do you mean by that?” Su Qianxun asked and immediately realized that Xia Chuxi just accused her of instructing her younger brother to attack Qiao Yiren. All of sudden, she started laughing sadly. “Xia Chuxi, I thought that after spending more than ten years together, even if you didn’t love me, you would at least know what kind of person I am… Turns out that I was being too naive again.”
Unfortunately, they had underestimated the complexity of the situation. Before they managed to go far, they were surrounded by the Qiao family’s servants. Every single one of them was holding a club, and they had fierce expressions on their faces!
This time, Su Jiye stood between his older sister and the servants protectively. As she looked at the towering figure of her younger brother who stood in front of her, Su Qianxun was so touched that tears fell non-stop from her eyes.
Frankly, she was also worried. She hoped that the child in Qiao Yiren’s womb was unharmed—not out of kindness—but because Jiye would be in big trouble if something bad happened to the baby in Qiao Yiren’s womb.
“Which one of you is Su Jiye? We received a call accusing you of intentional assault. Please come with us.” A number of police officers walked towards them with a pair of handcuffs, ready to arrest Su Jiye.
“Su Qianxun, I never thought that you could be so cruel!” Xia Chuxi’s voice echoed behind her. Su Qianxun turned and saw him walking towards her from afar with an extremely disgusted and chilly gaze.
Su Qianxun’s breath froze. She could not believe that this was actually Xia Chuxi’s perception of her. But she no longer wished to explain herself to him because it was pointless to say anything now.
When he heard that, Su Jiye immediately ran towards the exit, dragging Su Qianxun along with him. Su Qianxun got even more surprised. Her brother actually understood what she said!
There was a loud smack. Su Manni had slapped Su Qianxun across the face with her other hand. The latter gasped in pain and shoved the older woman before her with force.
Su Qianxun’s felt extremely disappointed. She nursed her younger brother’s stomach, gently rubbing the spot where he was kicked and hoping that it would ease his pain.
He stroke his older sister’s cheek gently with his large hand. His beautiful, black eyes were filled with pain, for he could not bear to see her being hurt like that.
“Jiye! What are you guys doing? Let him go, he’s just a teenager!” Su Qianxun tried to rush to her younger brother’s aid but was held back by the servants beside her.
The moment both of them stood up, Su Manni rose and walked towards them. She raised her hand and swung it at Su Jiye who still looked like he was in pain.
Su Qianxun was rather shocked. Her brother seemed to be acting a little different than usual that day. “I’m not hurt, silly. It’s not painful at all.”
There was a horrified look in Su Jiye’s eyes. He, too, extended his hands with all his might, attempting to grab his older sister’s hands.
“You clearly know that Jiye didn’t intentionally do that. He doesn’t know anything at all!” Su Qianxun was deeply disappointed.
