Chapter 1255: Fortunately Protected by Him

That candlestick did not hit Xu Xiaoxiao.

Because someone blocked it in front of her!

Xu Xiaoxiao only heard a muffled groan beside her.

When she raised her eyes, she realized it was Jiang Chenghao who had protected her with his back!

Xu Xiaoxiao was stunned.

Then, half a beat slow, she asked nervously, "Are you in a lot of pain!?"

Jiang Chenghao shook his head, his voice muffled as he said, "I'm fine, let's get you to the Hospital first."

After saying this, Jiang Chenghao supported Xu Xiaoxiao to leave the banquet hall.

Xu Xiaoxiao walked with a limp, and incidentally, she looked back.

She saw Bai Yufei still clamoring.

Her hair was all disheveled.

The way she was now, how could she still look like a young lady of a wealthy family?

Seeing this scene, Xu Xiaoxiao revealed a triumphant expression.

"You really are a lunatic!"

The comment from the person beside her made Xu Xiaoxiao withdraw her gaze.

Then she said with a straight face, "I am the victim, the one who is truly going crazy is that woman, alright."

Jiang Chenghao had eyes and knew what had happened.

But he still felt that, compared to Bai Yufei who had been provoked into madness, Xu Xiaoxiao, who controlled everything, was even crazier.

Jiang Chenghao thought this, then shook his head lightly.

Xu Xiaoxiao saw his movement and immediately knitted her brows to question him: "What is that expression, you don't approve of me?"

"This has nothing to do with approval or disapproval; it's that your methods were too radical."

"If you want to succeed, you have to pay a price, and for the sake of Xin'ai, I am willing; I believe you can also understand my feelings!"

Jiang Chenghao... could indeed understand.

If he encountered a suitable opportunity, he could even go further than Xu Xiaoxiao.

But...

This was, after all, not behavior worth praising.

So Jiang Chenghao said very calmly, "In the future, if there is a situation like this, do not put yourself in danger."

Xu Xiaoxiao, however, didn't take it to heart.

Instead, she asked in return, "Why did you block Bai Yufei's attack for me?"

"If you were beaten until your head was bleeding, Xin'ai would blame herself."

Hearing this answer, Xu Xiaoxiao curled her lip.

She seemed to have caught Jiang Chenghao in a slip-up and said triumphantly, "See, let's not talk about each other; for the sake of Xin'ai, we are both very selfless!"

Jiang Chenghao didn't expect this woman to dig a pit for him, and he was stunned for a moment.

Then he was speechless.

But he didn't stay quiet for long, because when going down the stairs, he accidentally aggravated the injury on his back and let out a "hiss."

Seeing this, Xu Xiaoxiao asked, "Back hurts?"

"It's alright."

"That means it hurts a lot."

As she said this, Xu Xiaoxiao reached out and pressed against Jiang Chenghao's back.

This made Jiang Chenghao frown, and while dodging, he asked, "Don't move around, walk properly!"

"I'm helping you check if you have a fracture! Honestly, being so coy, don't tell me you think I'm taking advantage of you!?"

Xu Xiaoxiao complained bluntly.

Then she drew a conclusion: "Good thing there's no fracture, it's just swollen. Once we get to the Hospital, have the doctor prescribe you some anti-swelling medicine."

Having found the cause, Xu Xiaoxiao withdrew her palm and continued to walk with a limp.

Although this woman looked disheveled, her expression was open and honest. She was unconstrained by trifles.

It's just...

A bit too unconstrained.

Jiang Chenghao lowered his eyes and said, "Thank you."

"I'm a medical student after all, it was just a small effort, no need to thank me."

"No, you misunderstood; my thanks are for you doing so much for Xin'ai. Because of you, Xin'ai's days haven't been so hard to endure."

Jiang Chenghao's words came from the bottom of his heart.

And they were sincere.

This instead made Xu Xiaoxiao feel a bit uncomfortable.

She coughed lightly and didn't say anything else.

These two wounded people took a car to the Hospital.

And Bai Yufei in the banquet hall slowly calmed down.

Then...

She felt she was finished!!

Looking up at her surroundings, Bai Yufei only saw eyes filled with disgust and mockery.

In their eyes, Bai Yufei was just a lunatic!

The event organizers were in a difficult position, not knowing how to handle Bai Yufei now.

And at this moment, the police appeared.

They had received a report and were there to take Bai Yufei back for investigation.

Bai Yufei had originally calmed down.

Seeing the police, she became agitated again and actually turned to run!

Stumbling, Bai Yufei naturally could not get away.

In the end, she was brought to the police station in a very disheveled state.

Bai Yufei did not know how long she had stayed there.

She was in a daze.

Until...

"Bai Yufei, you can go now."

Bai Yufei immediately raised her head.

She saw the police, and also saw behind the police... Qin Yiyan!

Finally able to see a relative, Bai Yufei was so agitated she wept!

But the first thing Qin Yiyan said when he saw her was: "What on earth are you going crazy for!?"

"Brother..."

"Come back with me first!"

Bai Yufei wiped her tears and followed Qin Yiyan to the car, looking utterly dejected.

Qin Yiyan's expression was so gloomy it could turn into ice!

After closing the car door, he opened his mouth to interrogate her: "I heard you hit Xu Xiaoxiao? And you did it in public!?"

"Yes."

"Extremely stupid!"

Qin Yiyan's reprimand made Bai Yufei's shoulders tremble.

The next instant, large tears fell down.

Her hands were also tightly clenched together.

Her voice was trembling: "Brother, it was Xu Xiaoxiao who said excessive things, provoking me until I lost my composure, which is why I did what I shouldn't have!"

"That still doesn't justify hitting someone in public! Do you have any idea how passive this makes your situation? Regardless of whether you're in the right or not, you've already lost your reputation!"

"I'm sorry, it's my fault."

Bai Yufei looked very flustered, repeatedly apologizing.

Her tears also simply would not stop.

Seeing her like this, Qin Yiyan rubbed his temples, feeling he had nowhere to vent his anger.

When he first heard that his sister was holding a weapon and chasing after Xu Xiaoxiao, Qin Yiyan hadn't believed it.

It wasn't until the police called him personally that Qin Yiyan realized something was wrong!

Now that his sister had admitted it herself, Qin Yiyan had to accept the truth!

Forcing himself to calm down a little, Qin Yiyan grasped the key issue and asked: "What exactly did Xu Xiaoxiao say?"

Under Qin Yiyan's sharp gaze, Bai Yufei still didn't dare to tell the truth.

She only choked out a plea: "Brother, don't ask anymore."

"Xu Xiaoxiao reported this to the police, and it's a fact that you hurt someone. If you can't reach a settlement with Xu Xiaoxiao, you'll be in big trouble! In this situation, you're telling me not to ask? Are you trying to solve this yourself!!"

Bai Yufei's head was hanging low.

She looked very fragile.

In reality?

Her eyes were full of hatred!

Bai Yufei truly hated Xu Xiaoxiao to death!

It was all because of that bitch that her good reputation was ruined!!

But considering Qin Yiyan was still there, Bai Yufei didn't dare to reveal the hatred in her heart.

She only choked out: "How could I possibly bring myself to repeat the things Xu Xiaoxiao said to humiliate me!"

Her reaction made Qin Yiyan's temples throb even more violently.

But the most urgent task now was to resolve the trouble.

So Qin Yiyan temporarily set aside the minor details.

He turned to analyze the situation for Bai Yufei: "If you want to settle scores, you can do it slowly, but if you want to smooth things over, you must go apologize to Xu Xiaoxiao and obtain her forgiveness."
