Chapter 20 - Teleportation? (1/2)
“Wan Wan, did I ever abuse you?”
The group became silent because of Chu Tianyi’s question. Everyone fixed their eyes on Wan Wan and waited for her to answer.
Wan Wan shook her head vigorously, her tears were falling like beads from a broken necklace. She could not talk as her throat was stuffed.
Upset to see her like that, He Yi comforted her gently, “Wan Wan, don’t be afraid. Tell me, who bullied you? Also, what happened that time you were chased out of the booth and starved?”
Wan Wan would clarify definitely whenever He Yi asked her whether Chu Tianyi abused her and she would never admit that her father abused her. It was clear that Wan Wan had a deep relationship with Chu Tianyi and she would not allow anyone to talk bad about him in front of her.
That acknowledgment was shocking to He Yi. She realized that psychological kidnapping was so much more dangerous than physical abuse.
Sharp-minded He Yi noticed the problem and decided to use the same method she used to fix Wei Jiameng on Wan Wan to remind her that the true bully and abuser was Chu Tianyi. The process might be cruel but she had to do it for her own good as that was the only way for Wan Wan to see Chu Tianyi in his true colors and detach from him.
Everyone was still fixing their eyes on Wan Wan. The neglected girl’s tiny shoulders shook when she answered timidly with her head low, “Yang Yang splashed soup on the teddy bear daddy gave me on my birthday.”
Chu Tianyi was slightly shaken. He stared at Wan Wan and said, “That’s why you scratched him with a fork.”
“I didn’t!” Feeling extremely wronged, Wan Wan pouted. “He was going to scratch my face with a fork. I pushed him away and the fork hurt him instead!”
That was what actually happened!
That was the truth behind the incident of Wan Wan hitting Yang Yang!
He Yi’s eyes were red and her heart was filled with tears, it was so painful that she could not breathe. “Poor Wan Wan! Everyone bullying you because you don’t have a mom!”
“Shut your mouth!” Chu Tianyi stopped her angrily, “Stop making up nonsense!”
Ji Xueshan maintained her identity as an outsider and spectated despite the heated clamor. People would look at her occasionally but no one took her seriously because they thought that she was He Yi’s friend.
The pros of He Yi’s decision of choosing a young, pretty woman to be her bodyguard were clear at the moment. Beautiful Ji Xueshan looked like a friend and a secretary beside He Yi so it was good for camouflage and convenience. If He Yi chose a large man to be her bodyguard instead, she would easily be targetted by the Chu family by undermining her image and status in Wan Wan’s eyes with false allegations, the convenience issue aside.
“Making up nonsense? Is Wan Wan making things up too, then? He Yi glared at Chu Tianyi and questioned him directly, “Wan Wan cried again today! Do you know how miserable she is? You never cared about her feelings and you don’t even feel sorry for her! Why can’t you return her to me if that’s the case? Please return her custody to me!”
