CHAPTER 743: CHAPTER 667: LIKING YOU FROM THE FIRST SIGHT 8

Jian Dan thought Bo Qin was just making small talk and didn’t hide anything, so he repeated what he knew about the little girl next door. Bo Qin chuckled and didn’t continue inquiring.

The house where Jian Dan lived was next to a property that once belonged to a partner. Because the partner was not honest in their dealings, Bo Qin had directly cut off several years of partnership with them. The other party had begged bitterly without success, thinking they had compromised, but they were actually waiting for him here.

Approaching Jian Dan without any reason, what was the purpose?

Bo Qin didn’t want to dirty Jian Dan’s mind with these business matters. Seeing that he wasn’t speaking, Jian Dan, feeling sensitive, anxiously asked, "Uncle Qin, should we have no dealings with them? Did I do something wrong?"

Jian Dan took each step with utmost caution, fearing most that Bo Qin would disregard her.

Bo Qin shook his head and chuckled lightly, "It’s alright, you don’t have to worry. By the way, has school been tight recently?"

"It’s okay."

Bo Qin nodded, "I am going on a business trip to Haicheng next week, just for a weekend. You haven’t gone out for a long time. How about you come with me?"

Initially feeling sad about his upcoming trip, Jian Dan didn’t expect such a surprise to be waiting for her. She cheerfully lifted her head and looked at Bo Qin with uncertainty, "Uncle Qin, can I come along?"

"Of course, you can. Am I not asking for your opinion? Do you want to go?"

"I do."

"That’s good then." Bo Qin also curled his lips up into a smile, seeing the young girl’s spirits revive seemed to brighten his mood a lot. After dinner, as Jian Dan had evening self-study, Bo Qin drove her back. Along the way, seeing her obedient demeanor, Bo Qin said with a laugh, "If you’re bullied at school, don’t worry, just bully back. If there’s any trouble, Uncle Qin has got your back."

Jian Dan was shocked as she looked up at him, not expecting him to say such things. Her heart warmed, and she nodded repeatedly.

After getting out of the car, she looked back at Bo Qin half-bent, "I got it, Uncle Qin. Drive safely; I’m going in now."

"Hmm."

...

When Jian Dan returned to the dorm, she immediately sensed the weird atmosphere. She saw Lin Yuanyuan sobbing on one side, while Mi Lu glowered with a face still angry, and Lai Wei was comforting Mi Lu.

As Jian Dan pushed the door open, all three of them turned to look at her. Mi Lu gave her a bitter smile, "Little Jian Dan, you’re back?"

Jian Dan looked worriedly at Mi Lu, walked up to her and asked softly, "Mi Lu, have you been crying? Your eyes are very red."

Lai Wei nodded lightly, "Lin Yuanyuan broke Mi Lu’s mother’s photograph, and then stepped on it. Now the photo is ruined, and that was the only thing Mi Lu’s mother left her."

Previously, Lai Wei had gone to fetch water and wasn’t in the dorm when the incident occurred. As for what had happened, Mi Lu wasn’t talking, and Lin Yuanyuan only knew how to cry, claiming it was not intentional; it was frustrating to watch.

When Mi Lu got angry, she didn’t hold back and slapped Lin Yuanyuan. Many people saw and even recorded a video. Lai Wei closed the dorm door, and soon after, Jian Dan arrived. Now she also planned to ask about it, but seeing Mi Lu’s attitude, she seemed not very inclined to speak.

Lai Wei patted Jian Dan’s shoulder, "You comfort Mi Lu."

Jian Dan nodded, slightly bent down, and embraced Mi Lu, yet her gaze shifted toward Lin Yuanyuan. Seeing Jian Dan looking at her that way, Lin Yuanyuan cried with a hoarse voice.

"Do you also think I did it on purpose?"

Jian Dan frowned, looking faintly at Lin Yuanyuan, she said, "I don’t know, but you can explain. Whether we believe it is our matter, but you aren’t apologizing or explaining. Doesn’t that show you feel guilty?"

She didn’t usually talk so sharply, but a woman’s intuition made her feel that Lin Yuanyuan had moved into their dorm with a purpose, which didn’t endear her at all. She started with bringing several people to embarrass them and then became increasingly aggressive.

No matter how you look at it, Lin Yuanyuan was not innocent.

To believe her would be like laughing at oneself.

Lin Yuanyuan seemed very aggrieved, "I just didn’t hold it steady at the moment, it was just an accident. Why must you think so negatively of me? I am not that kind of person."

"Not what kind of person?" Mi Lu scoffed, "Lin Yuanyuan, you said you wanted to look at my mother’s photograph, I handed it to you, and you immediately broke it. The photo fell into water, then you panicked and knocked over the basin; there are so many places to step, why did you have to step on my mother’s photo, completely destroying it;

Then you tell me you didn’t do it intentionally, so tell me, how could each step be so coincidentally planned if it wasn’t intentional?"
