Chapter 1125 - It’s Only Right For Me to Do This

“It’s indeed hard on you to let you stay here because of my mother. I can come over often to accompany you if you feel lonely.” Although Quan Jue said that, he didn’t look guilty at all. There was only coldness on his face.

Xu Ye disdainfully rejected him without hesitation. “I have so many people from 117 by my side. I don’t need you to accompany me. Besides, your mother is my aunt. I would rather suffer than let my aunt be in danger. It’s only right for me to do this.”

Xu Ye was very resistant to Quan Jue and immediately rejected him. But he soon regretted his words.

Quan Jue instantly revealed a victorious smile. “From the looks of it, you’re not lonely at all. The other 117 staff are keeping an eye on you. There’s no need to trouble Jiaojiao, then.”

Only then did Xu Ye realize that he had been tricked. He hurriedly said, “That’s not what I meant...”

“Jiaojiao has been busy catching murderers these past few days. She should be very tired. We’ll go back first.” Quan Jue didn’t give Xu Ye any chance. With that, he left the room with one arm around Chi Jiao’s shoulder.

Chi Jiao and Quan Jue left the 117 Building and got into a car to go home.

Chi Jiao couldn’t help laughing after getting into the car.

“Remember to call me along when you meet Xu Ye in the future, okay?” Quan Jue reminded her.

Chi Jiao could tell that he was jealous. She snuggled into his arms and coaxed him patiently. “I know. Brother Quan, you’re so petty. You know that I only like you. Why are you still jealous?”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Chi Jiao sounded like she was reprimanding him, but in reality, her undeniable love for him could be felt hidden within her words. Especially when she said that she only liked him, it miraculously soothed Quan Jue’s frown.

Yin Yong, who was driving in front, was once again treated to a lovey-dovey scene. He was a long-time, middle-aged bachelor, and he felt rather exasperated at this constant mushy behavior between these two lovebirds.

“Sir, Mr. Chi called just now,” Yin Yong said as he drove.

“Why did Daddy contact you?” Chi Jiao asked in confusion.

“Mr. Chi was worried that his call would disturb you, so he contacted me and asked me to tell the two of you that he was going on a business trip and would probably only be back tomorrow. He told you not to worry,” Yin Yong explained.

“I’ve been too busy recently to care about Daddy. I’ll take some time off to spend with him when he comes back. I will bring him and Auntie out to relax for a couple of days. Brother Quan, do you want to come with us?” Chi Jiao’s eyes were filled with anticipation as she asked with a smile.

Quan Jue nodded upon seeing her bright smile. “Alright, we’ll go together.”

Meanwhile, in the Quan family’s old residence in Shang Jing.

Quan Yan was already drunk early in the morning. He had his arms around a scantily clad babe as he walked in with a smile.

“Butler Wang, get someone to draw a bath for me. I want to take a good bath with my baby.” Quan Yan suddenly felt a clear tension in the air after he said that.

Quan Yan had a bad feeling. He sensed a terrifying gaze staring at him from afar.

He looked over and saw Quan Jingzhou sitting on the sofa, holding a teacup.
