First Miss Badass
Chapter 78: Don't Cry When You Fall
The smile on the young lady's face was the same as the first time he saw her.
It was like a soldering iron engraved deep in Quan Jue's soul. Which can never be erased.
Quan Jue slammed the window shut.
He could hear the cage in his heart collapsing. The trapped beast has come out.
At first, he thought he was gone. She did not expect him to still smile so brightly at her after she had gone too overboard with his words.
“Jiaojiao, this is your choice.” A low voice came out from his thin lips, and an expression of determination flashed across the youngster's dark eyes. He turned around and walked out of the kitchen quickly.
Standing under the streetlight, Chi Jiao's lips curved downward as the kitchen window slammed shut.
He was still worried about Quan Jue and wanted to know what was wrong with his legs. After hesitating for a moment, he decided to look for her.
He's already here. Based on Chi Jiao's personality, she naturally would not leave.
Therefore, he decisively decided to look for Quan Jue.
Chi Jiao had just taken two steps when she heard hasty footsteps coming from the building not far away.
Soon after, a familiar figure entered his line of sight.
When he saw Quan Jue, Chi Jiao could not believe his eyes and stood glued to the ground.
Quan Jue held the black coat in his hand as he walked quickly to Chi Jiao. He quickly wrapped the coat around him and reached out to sweep the snow off his head. “Are you stupid? It's snowing. Why are you still standing here?”
Chi Jiao knew that her normally cold tone was filled with anger. He looked at her and said, “This is the first snow in winter. I want to enjoy it.”
Stared at by the girl with such focused eyes, Quan Jue's handsome face quietly reddened. He turned around and said, “Enjoy here, then.”
“But it's too cold. Can I go upstairs and sit for a while? ” Chi Jiao asked gently as she followed in her footsteps.
Chi Jiao pursed her lips and smiled. He did not know why Quan Jue's attitude towards him had suddenly changed, but he was very fond of this change.
This building is considered an old plantation. There were no lights on the stairs, and it was very dark.
Quan Jue took out his phone and turned on the lights.
Chi Jiao followed the weak light and examined the seedy surroundings. Suddenly, a fair hand reached out to him.
“Do not cry when you fall.”
Chi Jiao was unaware of the impropriety in Quan Jue's tone as she smiled and placed her tiny hand on his.
The fingers of the young man were different and cold.
However, his wide palm could coincidentally circle his hand.
As he let Quan Jue pull him up the stairs, Chi Jiao could clearly hear his heartbeat speeding up.
Quan Jue's rented apartment was on the third floor. The environment is older, but it is very well cleaned and the floor is clean.
When Chi Jiao came in, ready to change her shoes, Quan Jue said nonchalantly, “You don't need to change your shoes. I don't have any ladies' slippers here. ”
Chi Jiao looked at the simple shoe rack. There were only a few pairs of casual shoes on it. They all belonged to Quan Jue.
From the looks of it, Quan Jue lived here alone.
He had Chi Jiao take off her jacket and she sat on the sofa while Quan Jue went to the kitchen.
Shortly after, he took out a cup of warm milk and handed it to her.
As Chi Jiao held onto it, her originally cold hand finally felt a little warm.
