Chapter 340 - 339: Who Made the First Move
Jiang Xiaoxiao’s originally apprehensive expression turned to one of gratitude after Xiao Bai spoke, and her eyes became firmly courageous.
She stepped out from behind Jiang Kechu and said, "Big brother, it’s not Xiao Bai’s fault, it was me who invited Xiao Bai to see a movie."
Wan Chu’er had not expected Jiang Xiaoxiao to say this, especially in front of the cold and intimidating Jiang Kechu, taking the blame upon herself. Secretly, Wan Chu’er gave Jiang Xiaoxiao a thumbs up.
How come the girls nowadays seem to be so open-minded and courageous, one more so than the next?
Xiao Bai also hadn’t expected Jiang Xiaoxiao to defend him like this. Surprised, he couldn’t let this girl take on everything by herself and said with ease:
"A single hand can’t clap. We’re both unmarried, it’s normal for men and women to interact; we haven’t done anything wrong. Xiaoxiao, you don’t need to be afraid."
Jiang Kechu’s fists tightened, and seeing this, Wan Chu’er thought he might explode with rage. She quickly intervened, wrapping her arm around his, and jokingly said:
"Don’t be agitated, don’t be agitated. Let’s talk it over nicely. Nothing is beyond discussion, resolving issues through negotiation is the proper way."
Who loved to solve problems with violence the most, Wan Chu’er had completely forgotten.
Because of Wan Chu’er’s intervention, Jiang Kechu loosened his fists. He softened his tone and said to Wan Chu’er, "I’m sorry, I can’t continue to accompany you today. I’ll take Xiaoxiao home first."
Wan Chu’er grabbed Xiao Bai, who was still gearing up to surge forward, and smilingly said to Jiang Xiaoxiao, "Xiaoxiao, go back with your brother first. I’ll have a talk with Xiao Bai."
Jiang Kechu didn’t take another look at Xiao Bai. After Jiang Xiaoxiao got into the car, he started the vehicle with a stony face and left.
