“If you don’t want to die, get lost.” Quan Jue lowered his voice and said coldly to Butler Zhou.
Butler Zhou looked at his sinister and ruthless expression. He was so frightened that his heart started to beat wildly. He hugged his injured hand and staggered back a couple of steps.
Bang!
The door was shut tightly.
Chi Jiao felt that it was finally quiet.
“Go back to your room and rest.” Quan Jue walked to Chi Jiao and lowered his head to look at her. “Children don’t grow tall if they stay up late.”
“I’m not a child,” Chi Jiao protested unhappily. “Brother Quan, you’re only one year older than me.”
Quan Jue raised an eyebrow and gently flicked her forehead.
“Then, where do you plan to rest?” Chi Jiao asked.
The corners of Quan Jue’s lips curled up as an unfathomable glint lingered in his eyes. “Where do you want me to rest?”
Chi Jiao looked at him.
The smile on his face was like a devil’s flower blooming in the middle of the night, beautiful and full of fatal attraction.
—Her boyfriend was teasing her again.
She reached out and gently placed her hand on Quan Jue’s chest. Her gaze was as gentle as spring water. “Brother Quan, would you listen to me if I tell you where I want you to rest?”
The girl’s hand seemed to be burning with heat. It could be felt on his skin even through his clothes, making Quan Jue’s heart beat faster uncontrollably.
She didn’t know how seductive her gaze was at that moment. It was clear and carried a hint of flirtatiousness.
This little troublemaker.
Why was she always so good at challenging his tolerance?
“From now on, you can only look at me like that. You’re not allowed to look at other people this way.” Quan Jue bent down and pressed his handsome face close to hers. His dark eyes stared intently at her face as he said word by word, “You got that?”
Chi Jiao blinked at him. “Got it.”
That flirtatious gaze was like a hook that made Quan Jue choke.
—This delicate girl sure had the tendency to learn bad things.
Quan Jue gently bit Chi Jiao’s earlobe as a punishment, but it made her body tremble as if she had been electrocuted.
“Little kid, hurry up and go to sleep. Be obedient.” Quan Jue looked at Chi Jiao’s face which was turning red. He was in a good mood as he lifted his thin lips. He didn’t forget to pinch her chubby cheeks. “Brother Quan told you last time not to test my patience, right?”
“Good night, Brother Quan!” Chi Jiao felt that Quan Jue’s tone was a little dangerous and immediately turned to run away.
As Quan Jue watched Chi Jiao leave, the smile on his lips turned into one of indulgence.
“Good night,” he said softly.
This was the first time he had said goodnight to someone.
Before this, he never knew that this word could be so beautiful.
Quan Jue did not sleep in the guest room. Instead, he went to his old room in the attic.
To his surprise, the room seemed to have been kept clean by someone after he left.
The room was spotless. The soft mattress on the wooden bed had been changed with clean bedsheets.
There was a vase on the desk with fresh daisies in it.
Quan Jue didn’t need to think to know that this was definitely Chi Jiao’s doing.
His heart melted into a puddle.
He suddenly had the urge to hug that delicate girl again.
Vrrr! Vrrr! Vrrr!
All of a sudden, his phone vibrated. Quan Jue took it out and saw that it was Quan San.
Normally, Quan San wouldn’t call him at night unless there was something urgent.
Quan Jue frowned and picked up the call.
