Chapter 241: Brother Quan, Hug Me~

At 11:00 PM.

When Quan Jue returned home, he stopped in front of Chi Jiao’s door.

No light was coming from the inside, and it sounded very quiet.

After hesitating for a moment, he didn’t knock. Instead, he walked towards his room next door.

After opening the door, Quan Jue didn’t turn on the lights. He took off his clothes and walked towards the bed in the dark.

Today, after meeting Shen Liao and Gu Xia, he had gone to settle some things, which had kept him busy until now.

His body felt like it was filled with lead.

As he groped his way to the bed in the dark, Quan Jue was about to lift the blanket when the bedside lamp was switched on.

He saw someone sitting under the covers.

The girl was wearing pink pajamas and looked like she had just woken up. Her big eyes looked a little misty, and her hair was a little messy.

It was Chi Jiao.

Quan Jue was stunned for a moment before asking, “Why are you sleeping here?”

Chi Jiao rose from the covers and opened her arms to him. “Brother Quan, hug me~”

The girl’s sweet voice was a little lazy from having just woken up. Quan Jue’s eyes darkened as he hugged her.

Chi Jiao rubbed her face against his body and inhaled his scent. “Why are you back so late?”

She was originally waiting for Quan Jue to return, but she fell asleep at some point.

Quan Jue rubbed the back of her head and couldn’t help but soften his tone as he said, “I was delayed by some matters. I came back only after I was done.”

Chi Jiao didn’t ask what he was busy with. She lazily buried her face in his chest and yawned. “Brother Quan, I’m sleepy.”

“Then sleep.” Quan Jue felt the softness in his arms, and his heart melted. “You want to sleep here again, right?”

Just like that, Quan Jue exposed her intentions. Chi Jiao nodded unhurriedly. “I had a nightmare earlier and was a little afraid.”

Previously wanting to reject her, he heard the grievance in the girl’s tone and couldn’t bring himself to do it.

A delicate girl was a delicate girl. She could make him surrender just by acting spoiled.

There was really no other way around it.

With that in mind, Quan Jue kissed Chi Jiao’s forehead gently. “Lie down, then. I’ll wait for you to fall asleep before I sleep.”

Chi Jiao raised her petite face and leaned toward him to kiss him on the cheek. “Goodnight, Brother Quan.”

Quan Jue looked deeply at the girl in his arms, and his lips curled into a gentle and affectionate smile. “Good night.”

…

A few days later, Chi Jiao heard from Chi Mingwei that Zhu Limin had agreed to the divorce and had even turned herself in.

This was the smartest choice for her.

She had agreed to the divorce now so that she wouldn’t blow things up with Chi Mingwei. At the very least, if she left White City in the future, she could still begin a new life somewhere else.

Chi Mingwei said that he would get Zhu Limin to leave the marriage with nothing. Actually, Zhu Limin had hidden a lot of private savings over the years, and Chi Mingwei had not pursued the matter at all. The amount was enough for her to spend the rest of her life in peace.

Chi Yan had not returned since she ran out of the house that day.

Chi Jiao asked Na Yankun to send someone to monitor her, ready to find a chance to take her away at any time.

In this lawful world, it was not easy to make a person disappear silently. One had to be careful.

Shen Wu was sent to jail. The son he gave birth to with Zhu Limin became an orphan that no one cared about and was sent to the welfare home.

As the winter break approached, it meant that the final exams were getting closer as well. Chi Jiao had also started to study seriously. Although she had a photographic memory, she still had to learn humbly.

Nothing would end well if you were too proud.
