The Beloved and Pampered Girl

Chapter 1127: Chapter 1127: You Should Thank Me

“Jian Jian~” Chu Liyuan came to Jian Dan’s side and pulled her into his embrace.

“Uncle!”

“Look at what your girlfriend has done! Not only has she insulted people without reason, but she also splashed water on someone?”

“Isn’t that right? That kind of woman is definitely not a keeper.”

“Exactly, such a woman deserves to end up alone.”

The woman behind the man curled the corners of her mouth into a cold smile that was hard to notice: Now, let’s see if your man still wants you.

Jian Dan impatiently fiddled with her ear.

“What’s wrong?”

“Nothing, just a bit noisy!”

“You woman~” someone began to speak.

Chu Liyuan gave a look, and that person instantly became mute as if their pressure points had been hit, unable to utter another word.

Chu Liyuan’s gaze was certainly enough to deter everyone present.

The room fell instantly silent~

“Now it’s not noisy anymore, right?”

“Yeah! Finally, some peace and quiet for my ears!”

“Want to keep eating?” Chu Liyuan offered the pastry he brought back in front of Jian Dan.

“Of course I’ll eat, why wouldn’t I!” Jian Dan picked up a piece and put it in her mouth. “Uncle, you eat too~” Then she took another piece and placed it in Chu Liyuan’s mouth.

With such casual displays of affection, the woman clenched her fists tightly, a hint of malice flickering in her eyes.

“Shall we go?” Chu Liyuan asked softly after they finished eating.

“Yeah!”

Just as they were about to leave, the man stopped them. “Wait a moment!”

After a look from Chu Liyuan, the man felt an intense pressure, and his military sixth sense told him that this man was no ordinary person.

Still, despite that feeling, he didn’t back down because retreat wasn’t a word found in a soldier’s dictionary.

“I hope you can apologize to my girlfriend!”

“Uncle, let me handle this!”

Only then did Chu Liyuan step behind Jian Dan.

“Apology? I won’t be doing that. It’s not because I’m unreasonable or anything, but because I haven’t done anything that necessitates an apology.

I do want to give you a bit of advice though. That woman is not a suitable match for you, so it would be best for you to rein in at the brink.”

“On what basis do you say that?”

“Ah~ Some people just won’t turn around unless they hit the south wall!

Would you mind if I asked about your occupation?” Jian Dan spoke at length to the man because she sensed the unique air of a military person about him.

“I’m a soldier, just discharged this year!” the man answered truthfully.

“I knew I wasn’t mistaken, you are indeed a soldier! So… listen to this, will you?” Jian Dan turned on the recording feature on her phone and handed it to the man~

The man’s face grew increasingly ugly as he listened~

“Understand now?”

“Why would you help me?”

“Because I’m also a soldier!” Jian Dan smiled, took Chu Liyuan’s hand, and left the place…

“Jian Jian, when did you become a soldier without me knowing?” Chu Liyuan asked at the entrance of the restaurant.

“Uncle, don’t sweat the small stuff! Even if I was a soldier for just one day, I’m still a soldier!” Only those who have been soldiers can understand the camaraderie among comrades, a bond that doesn’t require words, where a single look conveys all one wants to say.

“Where to next?”

“Hmm…”

“Hold on!” The man chased after them from the restaurant.

“You’re not still expecting me to apologize to her, are you?”

“No, no, I wanted to thank you!”

“What, you broke up?”

The man nodded.

“Then you should be thanking me indeed!”

“Jian Hui~” The man reached out his hand to Jian Dan.

“Jian Hui? Zhujian Jian?” The surname Jian is quite rare.

“Right!”

“Then we’re actually related! I’m Jian Dan!” Jian Dan took Jian Hui’s hand warmly.

“That’s quite a coincidence.”

“Yeah! I’ve never met someone with the same surname as me in all these 20 years!”

“Me neither!”

“Cough cough!” Chu Liyuan coughed with some discontent.

“Oh! Jian Hui, I still have things to do.”

“No problem, you go ahead!”

“Oh, then I’ll be off. Bye!”

“Goodbye~”

“You were having a good chat just now, weren’t you?” Chu Liyuan’s first words after getting into the car.

“Uncle, you’re starting to get jealous again.”

“I have every right to!”

“Alright, alright, not angry anymore, okay?” Jian Dan stretched out her hand and scratched Chu Liyuan’s chin softly.

Chu Liyuan’s Adam’s apple bobbed up and down…
