723: Anyone Who Targets Your Man Will Be the One in Trouble

Anyone Who Targets Your Man Will Be the One in Trouble

Beitang Lie suspected that his boss was a monster. Otherwise, how could she be so energetic?2

"Brother Quan just called and said that he would be home soon. It's been almost an hour and he's still nowhere to be seen. How could I not be worried?" The more Chi Jiao spoke, the more uneasy she felt. She muttered to herself, "Could something have happened to him?"

"Anyone who targets your man will be the one in trouble," Shen Xing said sincerely.

Beitang Lie nodded in agreement.

Chi Jiao couldn't be bothered with them. She was burning with anxiety. After waiting for a few more minutes, she finally saw Quan Jue from afar.

"Brother Quan!" Chi Jiao was delighted until she saw that he was drenched.

Chi Jiao's little heart immediately leaped to her throat, and she rushed towards him. "Brother Quan, what happened to you? Why are you so wet?"

Chi Jiao pulled his arm and hurried him into the house.

The cold wind blew. Quan Jue gave a light sneeze and looked at her. "I met She Qi on my way back."

Quan Jue's words caused Chi Jiao's expression to change. She quickly brought him in and asked him to take a shower and change his clothes.

Beitang Lie and Shen Xing were also shocked and quickly got busy. They poured hot tea for Quan Jue and made ginger soup.

After fussing for an hour, everyone finally sat down.

Quan Jue had already showered and changed into a set of clean pajamas. However, Chi Jiao still felt that it was not enough. She used her own blanket to wrap Quan Jue tightly. She then picked up the ginger soup and made him drink two bowls at once to dispel his chill.

Beitang Lie looked at Quan Jue. Apart from the abrasions on the back of his hand, he did not find any other injuries.

This man could escape unscathed from a monster like She Qi.

But now, he was being completely dominated by Chi Jiao. She had wrapped him up in a furry blanket and made him drink ginger soup.

Beitang Lie: "…"

What a contrast!

"Brother Quan, what happened?" Chi Jiao was finally relieved when she saw Quan Jue obediently drinking the ginger soup. She looked at him in confusion.

"It's like this…" Quan Jue recounted the incident.

Chi Jiao's cheeks puffed up as she stomped her feet angrily. "That long worm dared to touch my man! I don't care. The next time I meet him, I'll skin him alive and hang him up to dry!"

The corners of Beitang Lie's and Shen Xing's lips twitched.

They knew very well that Chi Jiao wasn't just saying those words out of anger. She would really do as she said.

"She Qi's motive was to test my strength. However, I sensed that he's actually targeting Jiaojiao," Quan Jue said.

"I thought that She Qi was already powerful enough. I didn't expect him to have the ability to control water. Coupled with your earlier experience with him, I can tell that he's an elite Esper." Beitang Lie sighed.

"I don't think that guy can be described as an Esper. We should call him a monster," Shen Xing said as it ate its lollipop.

"No matter what he is, I won't let him off." Chi Jiao held Quan Jue's hand with concern as she looked at him worriedly. "Is this the only place where you are injured? Are there any other injuries? Brother Quan, take off your clothes. I want to check."
