Chapter 212 - hu Tianjiao Is An Orphan (1/2)
Chapter 212 Chu Tianjiao Is An OrphanTang Xia frowned. Chu Tianjiao’s hand was not gentle at all. Even though he only used two fingers to pinch her chin, she still felt spasms at the back of her head, from the pain.
Chu Tianjiao’s expression made it look as if everything was so natural, and he was merely touching her chin gently.
However, the slightly red mark on her chin was proof that he was almost crushing her bones.
Seeing his light expression, Tang Xia really wanted to kick him.
However, she was very certain that it would not do her any good. So what if it would vent her anger? Those who should be caught would still be caught, those who should be locked up, would still be locked up. She held back the urge to push him aside, and pretended to shook her head in a flustered manner.
“No, no! Why would I ever think of escaping?”
Chu Tianjiao frowned slightly when he saw how she refuted him directly. His expression told her that he obviously did not believe her. He exerted more force on the hand tugging at her chin.
Tang Xia looked at him, as he continued exerting more force, as a tinge of coldness flashed across his eyes. She looked down. How could she convince him in such a way that he would believe her? Her chin would be turning purple anytime soon!
“I just miss home.”
Chu Tianjiao’s expression changed suddenly. Tang Xia was surprised. She had only said it casually. She did not expect him to believe such a lame excuse. Tang Xia instantly felt like she had won the lottery.
Seeing Chu Tianjiao’s face turn red and green, Tang Xia was a little confused as to what was happening to him. Why did his manner change, after hearing that she was homesick?
Chu Tianjiao let go of her chin, and left instantly. Tang Xia immediately touched her chin. She only felt bursts of pain.
Right now, she really wanted to take a look at a mirror. She did not even know what was the condition of her chin. Could it have turned purple and left a bruise?
Looking at Chu Tianjiao’s increasingly-distant back view, Tang Xia felt an inexplicable sense of sorrow.
When did Chu Tianjiao ever display this emotion? Wasn’t he always wearing that sinister smirk on his face? Now, he did not even bother about her intention to escape, and had just walked off like that?
La Chapelle looked at Tang Xia’s confused look, and suddenly smiled. She waved a finger in front of her eyes, but Tang Xia was too focused in her thoughts, and showed no reaction.
La Chapelle saw that she was so engrossed in her thoughts and pulled at her directly. Tang Xia then snapped back into reality. La Chapelle looked at her, feeling confused.
“What’s wrong with you?”
Tang Xia looked at La Chapelle and touched her chin that was still throbbing after being pinched so hard. She turned around and asked her.
“Did I say anything wrong just now?”
La Chapelle was startled. What did she mean by “saying anything wrong?” Recalling Chu Tianjiao’s strange reaction, she suddenly understood what was going on.
“Although the Chu family is very mysterious, but as Chu Tianjiao’s cousin, I still understand him a little.”
Tang Xia was surprised and immediately lifted her head to look at her. What did she mean by that?
“Didn’t you say that you don’t understand him that well?”
“Why did she suddenly say that she understood him? Liar!”
La Chapelle looked at Tang Xia’s confused and skeptical look, and felt instantly embarrassed. Her cheeks turned red, and as she quickly waved her hands, she said,
“I forgot the last time, my memory is not good, hahaha.”
Tang Xia looked at her silently. Right now, she did not want to say anything, nor did she want to pay any attention to her at all. After thinking about it for a while, La Chapelle leaned close to her ear and said softly,
“Chu Tianjiao was actually adopted by the Chu family.”
Tang Xia was shocked, and she instantly turned back to look at her. What? There was a hidden fact like this?
She had never expected Chu Tianjiao to have such an identity. She found herself speechless for quite some time. Could it be that his identity was the reason why he was so abnormal? This was too dramatic!
But after all, the world was that dramatic. One should not take everything so seriously.
Tang Xia nodded in her heart. La Chapelle looked at her. What kind of nonsense was this person thinking of again? Seeing her expression, La Chapelle knew that she was not thinking of anything good.
“I’m not done yet.”
Tang Xia was startled. There was more?
“Spill any other information that you have!”
“Let me enjoy it all at once.”
La Chapelle spoke softly, “Chu Tianjiao was adopted by the Chu family when he was young, so that he could be a playmate for the Chu family’s young master.”
Tang Xia could not help but frown. What kind of rich family was this? To adopt a kid just to play with their child? How rich was this family?
If this castle was just a tiny playground built for Chu Tianjiao, then this Chu family was really living like a game bug.
The Chu family must spoil the young master a lot, in order to give such a big castle to his playmate that they adopted for fun.
