Chapter 1078 The Heroine’s Vicious Adoptive Mother (17)
After asking the doctor, the doctor said that as long as he was careful, Xiao Jie could take the train. So the next day, Xiao Shichu and Teacher Wang bought train tickets for that day and planned to go straight back.
When the director of the orphanage saw Xiao Jie with bandages on his head and arms, he was so scared that his eyes turned red, thinking that something serious had happened to Xiao Jie.
"Dean, don't worry, I'm fine. I just hit my head and arm." Xiao Jie hurriedly comforted Dean Chen.
Dean Chen was very cautious, wanting to touch him but not daring to, and said, "Nonsense, if it's really nothing serious, why is it bandaged so tightly? What happened?"
The last question was directed to Xiao Shichu, who said apologetically, "We encountered human traffickers in South City, and Xiao Jie was robbed into a car by the traffickers. When I chased him, the car flipped over. Xiao Jie's two injuries were caused by the car flipping over, and he needs to rest well."
"You met a human trafficker? And your car flipped over?" Dean Chen's face turned pale, and he said worriedly, "Why is Nancheng so chaotic? Fortunately, Xiaojie is fine, otherwise I don't know what to do."
"Dean, it was Aunt Xiao who rescued me. If it weren't for her, I might have been kidnapped." Xiao Jie said hurriedly.
So Dean Chen expressed her gratitude to Xiao Shichu again and again, but Xiao Shichu felt a little embarrassed about her gratitude. After all, Xiao Jie's accident happened under her nose. She promised to take good care of Xiao Jie, but this time he came back injured. How could Xiao Shichu have the nerve to accept Dean Chen's gratitude?
Only after sending Xiaojie back to the orphanage did Xiao Shichu feel completely relieved.
After Li Yuanyuan found out that they had indeed encountered human traffickers in South City, she came to Xiao Shichu again with great interest to inquire about it, and insisted that Xiao Shichu tell her what had happened again.
Xiao Shichu had no choice but to tell her what happened. Li Yuanyuan listened with great interest and wished she was there at the time. Especially after hearing that Xiao Shichu had knocked down several human traffickers with his bare hands and prevented them from escaping, her admiration for Xiao Shichu became even more endless.
"Madam boss, I didn't expect that you, who look slim and slender, are so good at fighting. Have you learned martial arts? Where did you learn it? I want to learn it, too, so that no one can beat me." Li Yuanyuan said enviously, pinching Xiao Shichu's slender and strong arms and looking at them again and again.
"I have indeed practiced it. I learned it from someone before, but you can't find it now. If you want to learn, just go to your uncle directly. He can hire a martial arts teacher for you." Xiao Shichu lied without changing his expression.
Li Yuanyuan's eyes suddenly lit up and she asked, "Can you be my martial arts teacher? I think you are great. I don't need my uncle to help me find a martial arts teacher..."
Xiao Shichu shook his head without hesitation: "No, I have my own job and don't have time to teach you. It would be more suitable for you to hire a professional teacher."
Li Yuanyuan was very disappointed: "Aren't you the boss's wife? Just leave the store work to Sister Fangfang! I'll ask my uncle to pay your tuition."
"No, there are some jobs in the store that Wang Fang can't do for me." Xiao Shichu still refused to agree.
So when Li Hao came to pick up his niece, Li Yuanyuan was listless and listless.
"What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell or has something unhappy happened?" Li Hao asked his niece with concern.
"The boss lady refuses to be my martial arts teacher, uncle. Why don't you help me convince her? I really want her to teach me!" Li Yuanyuan placed her hopes on Li Hao.
When Li Hao heard her words, he was stunned and asked, "Does Miss Xiao know martial arts? I really can't tell."
"Really? I didn't realize it before, but they encountered human traffickers in South City this time. The boss lady was very powerful. She beat down several human traffickers, leaving no one behind. I also want to be as powerful as her..." Li Yuanyuan praised Xiao Shichu for a long time.
The more Li Haoze listened to his niece, the brighter his eyes became. He felt that Xiao Shichu was like a treasure mountain. The more he dug, the more treasures he would find. He felt that Xiao Shichu was grown up according to his preferences, and every good quality of him was right up his alley.
Maybe some men think that women who practice martial arts are rude and unfeminine, and prefer weak and powerless women; but Li Hao is different, he likes cool and handsome women.
When he was a child, he watched operas with his grandfather. His favorite play was the play "Mu Guiying Takes Command". What he admired most was a woman like Mu Guiying who was heroic, could go to the battlefield, and was no less capable than men.
Xiao Shichu's presence made him feel like he had found his Mu Guiying, so his eyes were particularly bright when he looked at Xiao Shichu.
"Ms. Xiao, I didn't expect that you would give me more and more surprises. Would you really not consider becoming Yuanyuan's martial arts teacher?" Li Hao suddenly felt a common acquaintance with his niece and wanted to bring Xiao Shichu closer to them.
Xiao Shichu still refused without hesitation. Even though Li Hao's deep and charming eyes looked at her and made her heart waver, it was only a momentary wave and did not make her lose her mind.
Li Hao had no choice but to take his dejected niece home in disappointment.
Li Yuanyuan did not show up in Xiao Shichu's shop the next day. Xiao Shichu just thought that she was busy with studies and had no time to come. Besides, he had rejected her so ruthlessly yesterday, so she must be upset with him, so he did not take it too seriously.
However, in the afternoon, Li Hao went to her store as usual, but did not see Li Yuanyuan. He asked Xiao Shichu: "Ms. Xiao, where is Yuanyuan? Where did she go?"
Xiao Shichu said: "She didn't come to my place today, didn't you know?"
"What? She clearly said she would come to see you. Did you really not see her come today?" Li Hao was shocked when he heard her words and asked hurriedly.
Xiao Shichu also had a bad feeling: "Really not, she didn't show up. If you don't believe me, you can ask my clerk and the store next door."
Li Hao's face suddenly turned very ugly, and he hurried to the next room to ask. Xiao Shichu followed him and heard him anxiously asking others whether they had seen his niece today.
After getting the disappointing answer, he became completely gloomy and quickly made a phone call to arrange for someone to look for her. Xiao Shichu no longer cared about the store and helped to find Li Yuanyuan.
Li Hao called and asked some of his old friends who were the same age as Li Yuanyuan whether they had seen Yuanyuan today, but the answer was no.
"Otherwise, let's just call the police." Xiao Shichu suggested with a bad look on his face. After all, Li Yuanyuan said that she came back to her place, but she didn't see anyone. Anyway, it was related to her, and she couldn't just ignore it.
