In one word, the atmosphere dropped to freezing point.
Tang Qiaoer's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, a sore grievance churning in her chest, "Ah Jin, what do you mean by this?
Do you mean that I am an extremely selfish person who only cares about the safety of my family and does not care about the life and death of others?"
These sisters, who have been inseparable since childhood, blushed for the first time tonight.
Shen Jing felt that his heart was beating wildly with fear, and because of the rare pain in his tongue, he had to gently tug at the corner of Tang Qiao'er's clothes, "Qiao'er, how could Ah Jin think that way? Don't worry too much."
"Am I worried? Then explain to me what she means!" Tang Qiaoer pulled the corner of her clothes out of the man's anxious palm.
Shen Jing felt his heart tremble and tightened his thin lips bitterly.
She could remain calm despite the loud scolding and ridicule outside. But this time, it was obvious that she was really angry.
He knew very well that what a little woman couldn't stand the most was to be misunderstood by those close to her, which would really make her feel more tormented and painful than scraping the flesh and blood from her bones with a knife.
After being under tremendous mental pressure and exhausting her energy for days, she finally couldn't hold back at this moment and got angry at the little sister she loved the most.
"Sister, you haven't answered my question yet."
Unexpectedly, Tang Jin also had an unyielding temper. He stood up slowly and asked again word for word, "If I were not your sister, would you still stop me?"
"If your question is based on your thinking that I am a selfish person, then I will not answer you even a word."
Tang Qiaoer tried her best to suppress her anger and said to Shen Jingjue in a low voice, "Jingjue, go prepare a car and take Jiumei back."
…
The sisters broke up unhappy.
After Tang Jin left, Tang Qiaoer ran to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator door, and poured in a whole bottle of ice water in one breath, hoping to physically cool herself down.
But he still couldn't extinguish the fire that was building in his heart, and his blood pressure was soaring.
What! Huo Ruxi’s method of defeating the fire doesn’t work at all. Let’s try another bottle!
Just when Tang Qiaoer was about to drink another bottle of ice water, the man's strong arms crossed over her head, his long and strong hands pressed on the refrigerator door, and closed it with a bang.
Tang Qiao'er raised her jade-like little face and bumped into Shen Jingjue's deep and charming peach blossom eyes. Suddenly, even her anger was extinguished.
"And when I wasn't paying attention, I secretly took advantage of it."
Shen Jingjue frowned helplessly, his warm breath sprayed on the tip of her nose, but his eyes were so soft, "You greedy kitten, when will you let me have some peace of mind, huh?"
"Don't talk about drinking two bottles of cold water, now I can't wait to fly to Antarctica and jump into the sea!" Tang Qiaoer pouted her lips angrily, folded her arms as white as porcelain, and leaned against his muscular chest.
"Youjump, ijump." The man lowered his eyebrows and kissed her forehead.
"Tsk...you're here again. I'm not in the mood for fun now."
Tang Qiaoer turned around from his arms and was about to speak when a passionate kiss with heavy breathing covered her, swallowing up her words.
Lips and tongues are linked, playful and lingering.
The little woman put her arms around the man's neck, her mind gradually occupied, and the anger in her heart gradually disappeared.
The two reluctantly left each other's lips. After all, if they continued to kiss, they would be starved of oxygen.
"Well... why are you doing this all of a sudden? What if Wu Ma bumps into me... I'm so embarrassed." Tang Qiao'er pursed her pretty lips.
"I'm afraid you'll go to Antarctica and jump into the sea, so I'm going to calm down your anger."
Shen Jing found it difficult to breathe down, and his voice was hoarse, "How are you? Are you feeling better?"
"It's okay...but I still feel aggrieved and depressed." Tang Qiaoer felt a knot in her chest, her almond-shaped eyes were moist, and she sniffed.
This pitiful little expression made Shen Jingjue's heart feel weak.
He held Tang Qiaoer's red cheeks with both hands, his palms were hot with her temperature, "Look at how angry you are, your face looks like it has a fever.
You two sisters are so good, it’s really not worth it to blush for the Xie family’s beasts. Don’t be angry, eh?”
"Why can't I bear to be angry with Ajin."
Tang Qiaoer lowered her long eyelashes in depression, "I'm more angry with myself. I couldn't beat Xie Jinchen to stand up and gave him a chance to breathe. It's all because I didn't remove the roots. Who else can I blame? I can only blame myself."
Shen Jingjue felt distressed and frowned, "Qiao'er, don't say that. It has nothing to do with you."
"Ah Jin said I have selfish motives... Yes, I do have selfish motives. I want to seek justice for those innocent girls, and I also want to protect the safety of my loved ones.
Ah Jin was protected so well by Lao Wan and Aunt Rou since she was a child. When she grew up, except for going to school, where did she see the darkness of the world and the dangers of human nature? She is the daughter of the Tang family, and her noble status can help her, but she can also Destroy her."
Tang Qiaoer gasped hard, the tip of her heart felt like it was pinched by a pair of sharp tweezers, and the pain was so painful, "She didn't think about it, but I always remembered that she had a dream of being an actress.
If she wants to go into the entertainment industry in the future, then the incident of being raped will become a mark of shame that will never be washed away for the rest of her life. When Tang Jin's name is mentioned in the future, others will only think of it. In this matter, her name will be closely tied to Xie Jinchen's. How will she get along in the entertainment industry in the future? How will she deal with herself? You can kill people with words and words, but Xie Jinchen is dead and clean. She will I will be criticized for the rest of my life!"
"Qiao'er, I understand your concerns. But Ah Jin is our ninth sister. With you and me protecting her, who would dare to provoke her?" Shen Jingjue comforted her in a low voice.
Tang Qiaoer's watery eyes turned red and she shook her head in distress, "Aunt Rou is still protected by Lao Wan. As a result, before Qin Shu was ruined and destroyed herself, she still lived in the psychological shadow that she couldn't get rid of. .I don’t want Ah Jin to become like that...
I also know that the situation is different. Aunt Rou was framed, and Ajin was the victim on the face of it. A girl who encounters such a thing is very brave to dare to stand up as a witness. I feel sorry for Ajin that she can I feel proud to have such courage.
But what a terrible pressure must be shouldered behind the risk... Countless pairs of eyes are staring at the Tang family. Ah Jin still wants to live in the spotlight in the future... I don't want her to make the choice she made in the heat of the moment because of today. And regret it for half my life."
"Qiao'er, as my sister, you really care about my mother's heart." Shen Jingjue took her into his arms and hugged her tightly.
"Surprise...I know, I am too greedy."
Tang Qiaoer's little face was pressed against the man's broad shoulder, with a lump in her throat, "I always hope to come up with the best of both worlds. I always hope that everyone can be happy, and I even hope... to protect the people around me.
But I discovered that I am just an ordinary person, and this is all I can do..."
"It's nice of you to admit that you are a human being."
Shen Jingjue sighed and joked to make her relax, "I always felt that I was in love with a god in the sky. Now that I know you are a human being, I feel relieved."
Tang Qiaoer couldn't laugh or cry.
"Qiao'er, you've done a great job, I'm not even one ten thousandth as good as you."
"Tch~ Mr. Shen, flattering someone is a bit destructive to your character." Tang Qiaoer narrowed her beautiful eyes.
The man replied in a low voice: "I have only one identity in front of you - your lover."
Tang Qiaoer's originally strong heart was instantly broken, and all her emotions surged up. The tip of her nose became sour, and tears burst into her eyes.
Shen Jingjue was hurriedly wiping her tears. She cried and punched his chest, "It's all your fault... What did you do to sensationalize for no reason! You made me cry!"
"It's better to cry. It's better to cry out than to hold it in your heart."
Shen Jingjue pinched her moist little face and said, "You two sisters should stabilize your emotions tonight. When you and I find time tomorrow, you and I will go see Jiu Mei and have a good talk with her. We will definitely come up with a perfect solution."
Even the whole world doesn't understand her good intentions.
He also understands her.
The eldest lady, who transformed into a little crybaby, rubbed her eyes and said coquettishly, "I'm hungry, cook something for me."
Shen Jingjue touched his chest with his right hand and bowed behind his back with his left hand, transforming into an elegant and handsome male deacon.
"As you command, my eldest lady."

The next day, Shen Jingjue and Tang Qiaoer returned to Haimen to find Tang Jin.
But the news they got was that the younger sister didn't go home at all. Instead, she contacted Chu Rou and said she would go back to school to do some important things and would stay in the dormitory for the next two days.
The couple looked at each other, confused.
Tang Jin had already graduated and even moved his luggage back home. They couldn't figure out what else could be solved by living on campus.
"Qiaoqiao, what's wrong with Ah Jin? Did something happen?" Chu Rou asked nervously.
"It's okay, Aunt Rou. Jingjue and I wanted to take Ah Jin out to play and relax, but we didn't expect that she was still busy." Tang Qiaoer didn't want Aunt Rou to worry, so she could only prevaricate like this.
"Qiaoqiao, if you can take her out for a walk...thank you very much."
Chu Rou's worry was palpable, "Ever since Xie Jinchen was released, Ah Jin has been suffering from insomnia and hasn't eaten much in the past few days. Although she says she's fine, I know... that child feels uncomfortable in her heart."
When Tang Qiaoer heard this, she felt even more uncomfortable and blamed herself. She regretted saying such harsh words to her little sister yesterday.
Under the calm expression, the little sister is suffering unprecedented physical and mental suffering. As a victim, she needs comfort and care more than anyone else. But in turn, she is worried about her sister's situation. It is really heartbreaking and heartbreaking. .
"Qiaoqiao, you need to see Ah Jin and help me persuade her. Don't let that child get into trouble again."
Chu Rou spoke with a sigh of relief, showing a hint of helplessness, "The past has passed. If you are alive, you have to look forward."
It was already evening when we came out of Yuetang Garden.
Tang Qiaoer felt inexplicably heavy and took out her mobile phone to dial Tang Jin's number.
As a result, the phone hung up after just a few beeps.
"Ah Jin...why did you hang up the phone on me?" Tang Qiaoer stared at the darkened screen, feeling inexplicably panicked.
"It's impossible. Ah Jin just doesn't answer the call when something happens. She never hangs up my phone. This kind of thing has never happened before."
The more Tang Qiaoer thought about it, the more anxious she became. She grabbed the man's arm and said, "Shocked, I'm scared. Is something going to happen?"
"You have to worry, we are going back to Shengjing now. I asked A-Xian to go to Jiumei's school first."
Before Shen Jingjue finished speaking, Lin Su's call came to Tang Qiao'er.
"Miss! Can you help me contact Ah Jin?"
Lin Su's voice was hoarse with anxiety, as if it had been burned by fire, "From last night to now, I have called her countless times...she didn't answer any of them!"
