Chapter 404 Background
"Tsk!"
"Pathetic!" Watching Lin Lele’s hasty departure, Ji You mercilessly mocked before frowning slightly in confusion, "I have no idea what’s gotten into Lin Lele, always coming to me looking for trouble. Is she too full for her own good, or is it that she’s got nothing to eat so she’s looking to feed on annoyance?"
Chu Jiaojiao stared at Ji You’s face and laughed, "Don’t worry about what she wants, just beat her up every time she comes around."
In Chu Jiaojiao’s dictionary — being simple and crude is obviously the best way to solve problems.
Ji You pinched her brow: "To be honest, dealing with such troublemakers tires me out. I hope she learns her lesson and stops seeking discomfort in front of me."
Chu Jiaojiao patted her chest, showing off magnanimously, "No worries, if you ever get annoyed, pass her to me, I’ll take care of beating her up for you."
Ji You: "..."
Ji You said with astonishment, "Jiaojiao, you really shouldn’t have such a delicate name, you should be called Chu Xiong Zhuang! Chu Badao! Or even Chu Aotian would do."
Chu Jiaojiao’s eyes brightened, then dimmed regretfully, "Chu Xiong Zhuang and Chu Badao are not subtle enough. But I do like Chu Aotian. It’s just a pity I can’t change my name now. My dad named me, and according to my grandma, my aunts, my mom, and my aunties, my dad was the gentlest person in our family. Since my mom was pregnant with me, he always wanted to raise me into a gentle and quiet young lady, but unfortunately, he died early and didn’t realize this great dream. He died in an operation against pirates, and my mom was too heartbroken to care about me, obsessed with avenging my dad, so she left me with my grandma. My grandma was too busy dealing with First Military Academy matters, how could she have time for me, right? So she tossed me to a bunch of deputy officers... Those coarse men and women, good at fighting, but how could they know how to raise a child?
So——
I grew up watching a bunch of rough men and women fight, and the first sentence I learned was ’Fight! Beat them to death!’. By the time my grandma realized and wanted to correct my character, it was too late to change. Ha ha ha..."
As Chu Jiaojiao spoke, her tone was always cheerful, but for some reason, Ji You could vaguely feel a trace of loneliness within.
