Then, the child smiled broadly at him and said, "Thank you, brother!"
He paused, looked down at her, and Chaochao, who was looking up, couldn't help but blink.
The boy had sword-like eyebrows that reached his temples, long and narrow phoenix eyes, a straight nose, and exceptionally handsome features.
System: This looks familiar...
Holy crap?! Isn't that the male lead?!
Chaochao only knew that the older brother in front of her was very handsome, the second most handsome person after her father.
When the child thanked him, Xie Jingcheng nodded very slightly after a while, not taking it to heart.
At that moment, a woman dressed in a black and white business suit quickly walked into the police station.
She glanced at Xie Jingcheng, then looked at the two boys and their parents, revealing a capable yet elegant smile.
"I'm very sorry, Mr. Xie is too busy to come. I am his secretary, and I apologize on his behalf."
The parents' expressions improved slightly.
"We will strictly discipline Xie Jingcheng for his egregious act of assaulting a classmate, and all medical expenses and compensation for emotional distress will be borne by the Xie family..."
The system shed tears of emotion: The male lead is indeed the school bully! Unlike the main villain, he doesn't deviate from his character at all— *sobs*
"Heh." Xie Jingcheng chuckled softly.
The secretary paused, and the two boys opposite her trembled.
"Actually, Cheng-ge didn't hit us... I just slipped and accidentally bumped my head..."
"I accidentally tumbled down the stairs..." while running away...
System: Huh?
The parent's face flushed red and then paled. "Why didn't you say so sooner!"
The boy with the broken leg cried out, "Did you even give me a chance?"
A fleeting moment of embarrassment crossed the secretary's face, but she quickly masked it, smiled again, and decided to let the matter drop.
"Brother, your hand is injured..." Chaochao tugged at his clothes, her almond-shaped eyes staring at his covered hand, her little face showing worry.
Although her brother quickly withdrew his hand after pulling her back, Chaochao still saw the bloodstain on his palm.
It must hurt a lot, right?
But my brother didn't cry at all; he's so strong.
While she was worried, she also genuinely admired him.
Xie Jingcheng paused for a second or two, his drooping fingers curling slightly.
The boy with the bandage on his head had a vacant look in his eyes; it looked like Cheng Ge's hand had been scratched by the barbs on his wooden stick...
Xie Jingcheng put his hands back in his pockets, looked away, and said stiffly, "It's nothing."
The implication of refusing to communicate is very clear.
A normal person would back down when faced with a difficult situation; who would willingly offer themselves up to someone who doesn't appreciate their kindness?
However, the thinking of a three-year-old child cannot yet be categorized as that of a normal person.
Chaochao frowned, stood on tiptoe, pulled his right hand over, and stared at the bloodstain on his palm. The skin was torn, and the flowing blood congealed into a dark red line, which looked particularly ferocious in Chaochao's eyes.
Xie Jingcheng was surprised to be "suddenly attacked" by a child, and he stood there stunned as Chaochao held his hand.
