Chapter 1287 - A Giant Baby? (1/2)
“Alright, alright. I’ll call you to comfort you, but you’re just showing off your relationship to me by saying how wonderful your husband is. I’m not talking to you anymore. I’m hanging up after coaxing the child!”
After getting off the phone, Bai Xiaonian’s mood improved. A smile appeared on her face. She put down her phone and finally fell asleep.
…
When Lu Jinnan arrived at the police station, he saw that Cai Jingyao was accompanied by her two female friends. She was sitting on the steps of the police station, wiping her tears. The white gauze on her arm was very obvious.
Seeing Lu Jinnan get out of the car, Cai Jingyao quickly stood up. “Brother Jinnan…”
Lu Jinnan closed the car door and glanced at Cai Jingyao.
The two girls behind Cai Jingyao suppressed their excitement as they looked at Lu Jinnan.
“That’s Lu Jinnan! He’s so handsome! He’s clearly Lu Jinbei’s biological brother, but one of them is full of masculinity, while the other looks like a little boy!”
“Yes, yes!”
The two ladies discussed in hushed voices.
Cai Jingyao walked down the stairs and raised a hand to tuck her hair, which had been messed up by the wind. Her white dress was stained with blood.
“Brother Jinnan, today’s class gathering…”
Before Cai Jingyao could finish, Lu Jinnan had already walked up the stairs, completely treating Cai Jingyao as air.
Cai Jingyao wasn’t discouraged. She followed Lu Jinnan and continued to nag at him, not caring if he said anything. “A few male classmates drank too much and guessed that you’re Xiao Bei’s older brother. So, when we talked about Brother, Xiao Bei and Bai Xiaonian’s love triangle, Xiao Bei couldn’t take it anymore and hit someone!”
The moment Lu Jinnan entered, the Deputy Commissioner who had been waiting came over to welcome him. “Mr. Lu is here…”
“Sorry to trouble you!” Lu Jinnan said to the Deputy Commissioner.
The Deputy Commissioner glanced at Cai Jingyao, who was crying beside Lu Jinnan. He gestured for Lu Jinnan to come over and asked in a lowered voice, “Is this girl Cai Jingyao? The celebrity from overseas?”
Giving the Deputy Commissioner some face, Lu Jinnan nodded.
“Is she Mr. Lu’s friend or your younger brother’s friend?” the Deputy Commissioner asked.
“I don’t know her.” Lu Jinnan cut off all ties with Cai Jingyao.
The Deputy Commissioner nodded thoughtfully. He turned around and glanced at Cai Jingyao, guessing that she must have a close relationship with Lu Jinbei.
Lu Jinbei and the others were locked up separately. Ever since the fight ended, the few of them had sobered up quite a bit. They sat in the police station with their faces covered in dirt.
Lu Jinbei hadn’t had much to drink that night to begin with, so he didn’t regret fighting. But when he thought about how Lu Jinnan would be able to get the news if something were to happen to him, his chest heaved up and down.
The door to Lu Jinbei’s room suddenly opened. Lu Jinbei turned his head and saw the frowning Lu Jinnan standing at the door with both hands in his pockets. He felt even more awkward, so he stiffened his neck and turned to look away.
“Xiao Bei… are you okay?” Cai Jingyao stood at the door, staring at Lu Jinbei with teary eyes.
The smart-looking Deputy Commissioner sensed that something wasn’t right. After he opened the door, he smiled and said to Lu Jinnan, “Alright, alright. It’s normal for a child to get into a fight! Go back and don’t lecture the child!”
“A twenty-seven-year-old is a child? A giant baby?” Lu Jinnan stared at Lu Jinbei, his voice cold.
Lu Jinbei’s face was stained, and his fists were clenched so tightly that they were cracking.
