35 TIT FOR TAT PART 8 (2/2)
”You hold your name by your actions, model student. But this ends now.” He said.
Ge Chen knew he couldn't stand and just watch. He had to do something for her.
Splash!
The smile of the curly-haired boy vanished in a flash as his head and face were soaked with red wine.
Xue Lin who was struggling also froze and looked at the brave person. But before she could, she was strongly held by that person and she smelt a familiar perfume.
'That night at the bar. Grey eyes!' Xue Lin was drunk, but she could still remember the smell of the kingly man and his beautiful grey eyes. They were imprinted in her mind.
”I'm sorry. But she cannot have fun with you.” Ge Chen said in a cold tone. His perfect grey eyes were narrowed.
The curly haired man was furious. ”You! A watchdog! Go do your job!”
Xue Lin looked at her rescuer's uniform. 'He is a guard of this mansion?' She wondered.
Ge Chen gave a chilling smile and said, ”I AM doing my job.”
The plain-haired said, ”You are asking for a beating.” He growled and tried to hit him.
Ge Chen said in Xue Lin's left ear, ”Please hold a little longer.” His warm breaths made Xue Lin shiver.
The grey-eyed man moved away with her in reflex. Then kicked his butt, as the plain-haired boy fell with a thud.
The curly-haired dialed a number and called Anne's brother.
Ruddy Donne, who had the same age as Anne showed up and started to bicker at the grey-eyed man. Ruddy almost hit him with a rod, in an instant, Xue Lin came forward and shielded the mysterious rescuer of her.
”If you want to hurt him because he saved me from those perverts, you have to go through me.” Her eyes were as sharp as a knife, making Ruddy's heart tremble in fear.
When Ruddy realized that he couldn't hurt a guest of his sister, he looked at the grey-eyed and said, ”You are fired!” Then he left.
Xue Lin looked back and asked her rescuer, ”Are you alright?” her voice was soft.
Ge Chen was awed by her sudden protective nature. Hearing her question, he smiled and said, ”That should be my question. Don't you think so?
Xue Lin apologized as she bowed, ”I'm sorry. Because of me, you lost your job. Though you are more fitted to be a ruler.”
Ge Chen's eyebrow rose and he quietly said, ”Don't worry about me. I had done what I intended to do. You are not safe alone. Shall I take you to your home?”
Looking at his eyes, she knew that she could trust him. So, she nodded and said, ”I'll be in your care.”
That night, she was like a knight in shining armor.
While recollecting those memories, Ge Chen narrowed his eyes as some hidden emotions surfaced. He didn't think about it before. He found her intriguing before, but now, he started to like her more.
