Chapter 53: Came for Chi Jiao
“I’m Chi Yan. Director Yan, we’ve met before.” Chi Yan couldn’t wait to introduce herself.
Yan Zhengchen frowned, and his aura instantly turned several degrees colder.
He looked at Chi Yan maliciously and smiled. “Very nice to meet you.”
With that, he lifted his feet and strode towards the entrance.
If it wasn’t for the fact that Jiaojiao didn’t like others interfering too much in her affairs, he would have definitely thrown Chi Yan into the open sea to feed the fish, for daring to slander Jiaojiao.
Chi Mingwei looked at Chi Yan, who was rooted to the ground, with a complicated expression. He then hurriedly caught up with Yan Zhengchen.
Chi Yan stared blankly at their backs as the man’s deep, magnetic, and sarcastic voice echoed in her mind.
Very nice to meet you.
She wasn’t stupid. Of course, she could tell that Yan Zhengchen was being sarcastic.
“Didn’t you say that Yan Zhengchen came for you?” Zhu Limin, who had witnessed the scene earlier, frowned and walked towards her. “Why do I feel like he came for Chi Jiao instead?”
Zhu Limin had also heard Yan Zhengchen and Chi Mingwei mentioning Chi Jiao’s name earlier.
“Impossible!” Chi Yan shook her head vehemently without hesitation. “It’s impossible that Yan Zhengchen came for Chi Jiao! Mom, think about it. Chi Jiao grew up in the mountains. How could she have come into contact with a big shot like Yan Zhengchen?”
Zhu Limin instantly felt that she made sense. “Then, why did he come?”
“You’ll find out since you can ask Daddy later about that.” Chi Yan was currently feeling very frustrated. She had never been so embarrassed before. Yan Zhengchen had shown his dislike of her earlier, but the problem was that she didn’t even know when she had offended him.
The more she thought about it, the more her head hurt. Chi Yan simply turned around and went back to her room to rest.
Zhu Limin was left standing alone in the living room, deep in thought.
…
It was currently noon at the Xing Teng Academy.
The warm sunlight shone on their bodies. The warm noon sun on a winter day was very comfortable.
“Jiaojiao, there’s a food street at the back of the school. Let’s go there to settle our lunch.” Yi Lanlan chirped as she walked beside Chi Jiao.
“You’re just a foodie.” Dang Nan looked at her helplessly. “The hygiene at the snack street isn’t as good as the canteen. Aren’t you afraid that Jiaojiao will get diarrhea from eating there?”
Chi Jiao’s stomach was indeed very weak. She was just born with a frail body. She had tried to nurse herself back to health, but the effects were minimal.
This was probably the reason why people say it was difficult for doctors to treat themselves.
But that didn’t stop her from eating some junk food.
“I’m fine. Let’s listen to Lanlan and go to the snack street,” Chi Jiao said with a smile.
The four girls walked towards the snack street together, chatting and laughing.
There was a casserole rice noodles stall at the snack street that was not bad. It was Yi Lanlan’s favorite. She strongly recommended Chi Jiao try it, and she happily agreed.
Business in the casserole stall was good. Most of the people who came to eat were students from the Xing Teng Academy. When Chi Jiao and the others reached the casserole stall, coincidentally there was only an empty table left.
The four girls sat down at the empty table and each ordered a portion of casserole rice noodles.
“Isn’t that Chi Jiao? The female lead in the kidnapping case.”
“Sigh, she’s really pitiful to have experienced something like that.”
“Exactly. I hope there isn’t any other trauma in her heart.”
…
Some students in the store recognized Chi Jiao and couldn’t help but start to discuss her.
“Is eating still not enough to keep your mouths shut?!” Dang Nan slammed the table and shouted angrily at them.
