Chapter Thirteen: Young Master
Chapter 13: Playboy "Hey, Cheng Hanlei, you are a heartless woman. I was worried about you all day yesterday, and you are so indifferent to me. It really hurts my heart. []"
"What's wrong with your face? Why are there red marks on your face? Have you been bullied? Who bullied you? Tell me, who is so bold as to bully the person I am protecting..."
Shangguan Jue's originally playful expression changed dramatically when he saw the faint red mark on Cheng Hanlei's cheek. A sharp look flashed on his cynical face, and he stared at Cheng Hanlei's face for a moment, slender.
Her fingertips stretched out, ready to clasp Cheng Hanlei's face.
"Do not touch me."
Cheng Hanlei almost had a conditioned reflex. When Shangguan Jue reached over, she quickly moved aside. Lei Chenyi's words "Don't take a step out of Lei's house until your face is swollen" vaguely appeared in her mind. What did his subtext mean? She
very clear.
"I'm fine."
He dropped a sentence in a somewhat unsteady voice, passed by Shangguan Jue, and tried to walk toward the classroom to avoid Shangguan Jue.
"Don't even think about leaving until you explain clearly."
Shangguan Jue's face was already serious. Looking at Cheng Hanlei who was dodging, he quickly reached out and grabbed Cheng Hanlei's wrist with his big hand, and stopped Cheng Hanlei's departure with a little force.
Cheng Hanlei was just about to struggle when she saw two people walking not far behind her from the corner of her eye. Her body froze instantly, letting him see her entanglement with Guan Jue. If he heard Shangguan Jue's questioning again, she would not
Dare to imagine what he, who has always been deep and reserved, would do to himself...
Shangguan Jue could easily catch the panic on his face, and he couldn't help but follow Cheng Hanlei's gaze towards Lei Chenyi, who was walking over, and the mayor's daughter Feng Zhenzhen, who was standing next to Lei Chenyi.
"is that you?"
Shangguan Jue held Cheng Hanlei with one hand to prevent Cheng Hanlei from leaving his side. He dragged Cheng Hanlei towards Lei Chenyi who was walking towards him with a few strides. He looked at Lei Chenyi provocatively. He and Lei Chenyi had always known each other.
It was wrong, and he had always disliked Lei Chenyi. Now he saw the panic flashing in Cheng Hanlei's eyes when he saw Lei Chenyi, which made him have the urge to stand up for his woman.
"What?"
An elegant voice with a touch of alienation.
There was a smile on the corner of his mouth, a faint smile that could not feel the warmth. His eyes swept towards Cheng Hanlei who was standing next to Shangguan Jue without any trace. There was no doubt that Cheng Hanlei's panic-filled expression was fully visible in his eyes.
It's even more profound.
Cheng Hanlei could feel Lei Chenyi's gaze, and her heart tightened inexplicably. Even though there was no emotion in that gaze, it made her heart tighten inexplicably, and a chill spread from the soles of her feet to her whole body...
…
"Shangguan Jue, let go, we're almost late."
He hesitated to speak. In front of Lei Chenyi, he felt an inexplicable inferiority complex and wanted to escape.
"Cheng Hanlei, don't be afraid that I'm here. Tell me if he hit you."
Shangguan Jue's words made Cheng Hanlei's heart clench even more, and Lei Chenyi's eyes turned dark when he looked at Cheng Hanlei. Cheng Hanlei bit her lip, raised her gaze to look at Lei Chenyi, her lips squirmed,
He wanted to explain, but when he met Lei Chenyi's gaze, he quickly looked away.
