Chapter 231
Xiao Taozhi's heart suddenly tightened, and the feeling was even more painful and uncomfortable than if she had been injured herself.
"Brother, does it hurt?"
Before the little guy could finish his words, tears in his eyes burst out like a dam bursting, rushing down wildly.
It was clearly him who was injured, but he hadn't cried yet. Why was the little guy crying so sadly?
Chen Ji hurriedly wiped Xiao Taozhi's tears and comforted her, "I'm not hurt."
But after hearing this, little Taozhi did not stop crying. Instead, she cried even harder, and tears kept falling from her eyes.
Chen Jisui asked speculatively, "Did I scare you by looking like this?"
He suddenly felt a little regretful and thought he shouldn't have stayed.
He had just hidden his face tightly and left quickly without paying any attention to Xiao Taozhi, because he was afraid that Xiao Taozhi would be frightened if she saw his one-eyed appearance.
Sure enough, it was just as he expected.
Shen Jisui quickly checked again to make sure that Xiao Taozhi was not injured elsewhere. He stood up and said in a cold tone without a trace of warmth: "The ground is cold, don't sit for long. Since you are okay, I will leave first."
It would be better for him not to stand here and get in her way.
The boy turned around decisively.
After taking only two steps, I felt the corner of my clothes being pulled by a small force.
He hesitated and stopped.
At a glance, he saw Xiao Taozhi beside him.
Her white fingertips tightly grasped the corner of his clothes, and her two deer eyes, as clear as black crystal, were looking at him seriously.
The serious expression on her cute little face seemed a little out of place: "Brother, you didn't scare Zhizhi."
But the next second, she smiled again, and her eyes turned into two crescent moons, bright and shining.
There was unquestionable sincerity in her words: "Brother Ji Sui is the most handsome man in the entire galaxy! No matter what he becomes, Zhizhi still thinks he is handsome!"
At the end, she added, "It's true!"
The sweet and sticky little voice was like a cup of fragrant milk, suddenly flowing into Chen Jisui's heart, and a sweet taste suddenly appeared in his heart.
Chen Jisui raised his light-colored thin lips, and his fair ears blushed completely without making a sound.
He asked in a low voice, but more like talking to himself: "How can you say a boy is good-looking?"
Little Taozhi hurriedly asked, "Brother Jisui, don't you like Zhizhi saying you're pretty?"
The boy's ears turned even redder, and he shook his head slightly: "No, it's up to you."
After hearing what Chen Jisui said, the little guy nodded his head in relief.
Although Brother Ji Sui is handsome in Xiao Taozhi's heart, Xiao Taozhi becomes furious when she thinks that Chen Ji Sui's handsome face is going to have a cut.
She clenched her small fists angrily, her pink cheeks puffed up like a little goldfish blowing bubbles:
"Brother Ji Sui, who hurt your eyes? Zhizhi, go settle the score with him! You big bad guy!"
Chen Jisui lowered his crow-feather eyelashes, his gaze fixed on Xiao Taozhi's slightly flushed face, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
He was clearly talking about something that should have made him angry, but when he saw Xiao Taozhi's angry look, he was amused and wanted to laugh.
Unexpectedly, as she spoke, Xiao Taozhi became even angrier, and even forgot about the injury on her leg. She stood up with a snap.
Little Taozhi imitated Xiao Yucheng's usual behavior and said in a cocky and childish voice, "Brother Ji Sui is under Zhizhi's protection. Who would be so blind as to bully Zhizhi's people? If a tiger doesn't meow, do you think I'm dead?!"
After these words came out, Chen Jisui could no longer hold back.
He chuckled and corrected himself, "The tiger doesn't show its might, so do you think I'm critically ill?"
And who did Xiao Taozhi learn these nonsense from?
“Hmm…”
Little Taozhi stuck out his tongue embarrassedly, "Same here! Brother Ji Sui, quickly tell Zhizhi, which bad guy is bullying you?"
Chen Jisui couldn't help but reach out and rub Taozhi's furry little head.
The little guy is short-handed, let alone helping him get revenge, he probably can't even find that person.
However, it seems that Xiao Taozhi will not give up unless he explains the matter clearly today.
Chen Jisui thought for a moment, then pointed to the bandage on his left eye and explained casually, "No one was hurt. I just fell down two nights ago while walking, and my eye accidentally hit a brick on the ground. It has nothing to do with anyone else."
Little Taozhi nodded in understanding. She always believed in what Shen Jisui said: "Oh."
But the reality is far from that.
In fact, the injury on his left eye was caused by someone trying to make fun of him.
Ever since they were thrown into the fountain by Chen Jisui in the Caster Empire, Liu Linming and Luo Yizhou have been holding a grudge against Chen Jisui.
While Chen Jisui was in a small alley buying stationery, the two men called a few professional thugs and blocked him in the alley.
The thugs had received professional training and were strong adults. Their stature could be said to be several times that of Shen Jisui.
Chen Jisui was naturally no match for them and was soon subdued by them.
Fortunately, the patrolling police discovered it early, and Shen Jisui was not seriously injured. He was only scratched on the skin under his eyebrow by one of the thugs with a glass.
Those people ran very fast and the patrol police didn't catch them. In addition, the place they chose was a blind spot for surveillance.
Without substantial evidence, the school and the police station will be unable to do anything to Liu Linming and Luo Yizhou as long as they refuse to admit their guilt.
In order to resolve the matter as quickly as possible, they even gave him some money and advised him to keep the matter to himself and keep the peace.
It goes without saying that it must have been given by Zhou Yiwei and Liu Linming's parents.
Those who committed violence did not receive the punishment they deserved. Instead, they wanted to use a few coins to silence the victims like they were treating beggars!
What a ridiculous world this is!
But Chen Jisui didn't want to tell Xiao Taozhi about these dark things.
Her world is pure and clean, just like her pair of clear and bright deer eyes, which should not be mixed with any grayness or dirt.
The anger in Xiao Taozhi's stomach came and went quickly. After listening to Chen Jisui's explanation, it disappeared in a moment.
Her black eyes rolled around twice, and she remembered something. She quickly grabbed Shen Jisui's sleeve and asked with her head tilted up, "Brother Jisui, Zhizhi just heard that aunt say that she is your aunt. What's going on?"
She remembered that she seemed to have heard someone say that Brother Ji Sui's parents died when he was very young.
None of his relatives were willing to adopt him.
Now, my brother can only live with his adoptive parents.
