Big Shot Little Jiaojiao Breaks Her Persona Again

After returning to the Chi residence, Chi Jiao asked Chi Mingwei in order not to arouse his suspicion, “Dad, where are Zhu Limin and Chi Yan?”

Chi Mingwei was already used to Chi Jiao calling Zhu Limin by her full name. At the mention of her, he couldn’t help but look disgusted. “I don’t know where she went to fool around. I’ve already gotten my lawyer to prepare the divorce papers.”

Quan Jue glanced at Chi Mingwei without saying anything.

Initially, he thought that Chi Mingwei would never find out that Zhu Limin had an affair. Now, it seemed that his future father-in-law was not hopelessly stupid.

The housemaid had just finished preparing dinner. Other than the servants, there was only Chi Jiao, Quan Jue, and Chi Mingwei.

The three of them sat around the dining table.

It had been a long time since Quan Jue last had a meal at the Chi residence. More accurately, this was his first time eating at the dining table.

He had never thought of sitting together with Chi Mingwei for a meal.

All of this was for Chi Jiao.

Similarly, Chi Mingwei never thought that he would be having a meal with Quan Jue one day.

But, seeing how happy Jiaojiao was, why did he feel that his precious daughter had been captured by Quan Jue?

Did this mean he would have to eat with Quan Jue often from now on?

Thinking of this, Chi Mingwei felt a little uncomfortable.

Apart from Chi Jiao, Chi Mingwei and Quan Jue both harbored their own thoughts at the dining table. The atmosphere was a little strange.

“Brother Quan, try this squirrelfish. It’s very delicious.” Chi Jiao picked up a piece of fish meat and placed it on Quan Jue’s plate.

Quan Jue immediately picked it up with his chopsticks and placed it in his mouth. After tasting it, he put his face close to Chi Jiao’s ear and whispered, “It’s delicious.”

His breath tickled her ear.

The girl blushed.

She then whispered in his ear, “Eat more if it’s delicious.”

“This isn’t the tastiest.” Quan Jue’s voice was as deep as wine.

Chi Jiao looked at him doubtfully. “What’s the best thing Brother Quan has ever eaten, then?”

Quan Jue’s gaze fell on Chi Jiao’s lips as he raised an eyebrow.

It was obvious what he wanted to say.

Chi Jiao was caught off-guard by his raised eyebrow. Her heart was beating wildly like a deer.

Chi Mingwei looked at them unblinkingly. When he saw them whispering into each others’ ears as if there was no one else around, he was so angry that his nose almost turned crooked.

However, he couldn’t bear to scold Jiaojiao and couldn’t say anything nasty to Quan Jue in front of her, so he could only endure it.

“Cough, cough…” Chi Mingwei coughed heavily twice.

Chi Jiao’s attention was immediately attracted to him. She frowned and looked at him. “Daddy, what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”

“I’m not feeling unwell. Jiaojiao, tell Daddy what happened today. Why were you and Quan Jue attacked out of nowhere?” Chi Mingwei asked.

“We don’t know, either,” Chi Jiao said with a confused expression. She couldn’t tell her father about the existence of Espers yet, so she could only pretend to be confused.

Chi Mingwei looked at Quan Jue.

Quan Jue did not even look at him and chose to remain silent.

“I’ll hire a bodyguard for you,” said Chi Mingwei after some thought.

Since the murderer hadn’t been caught yet, who could guarantee that the murderer wouldn’t do anything else to Jiaojiao?

Chi Jiao quickly shook her head. “Daddy, I don’t need a bodyguard.”
