Chapter 330: He Used His Capability to Prove That He Was a Good Man Who Could Be Relied On

When Quan Jingzhou had rushed out of the room, he could no longer see Quan Jue.

Quan Jue didn’t take the elevator. To avoid Quan Jingzhou, he entered the fire escape.

After two flights of stairs, Quan Jue sat against the wall.

His entire body was screaming in pain.

The young man’s eyes were closed as he panted slightly.

Just then, his phone rang.

Quan Jue took it out from his pocket. When he saw the caller ID, he took a deep breath and exhaled slowly before answering the call.

“Brother Quan, Daddy and I are already outside Grandma’s house. Have you seen your Dad?” A girl’s sweet voice sounded from the phone.

Although Chi Jiao’s maternal grandparents’ house was also in White City, the city was very big. It was separated into several districts and was still quite a distance away from Chi Jiao’s house.

If there was a traffic jam on the way, they would indeed only arrive at this time.

Quan Jue’s hand trembled slightly as he held the phone. However, his voice remained calm. “Yes.”

“Nothing bad happened, right?”

Hearing the worry in her voice, Quan Jue smiled. “Nothing happened. Don’t worry.”

“That’s good.” Chi Jiao heaved a sigh of relief.

“But I have to go on a long trip, and I’m leaving today,” Quan Jue whispered.

“With your father?” Chi Jiao asked.

Quan Jue did not speak.

Chi Jiao took it as a silent acknowledgment and said softly, “Okay, then. I’ll wait for you at home. We’ll keep in touch?”

“Okay,” Quan Jue whispered.

After hanging up, Quan Jue raised his hand and used his fingers to wipe the blood from the corner of his lips. The haze in his eyes was like an endless abyss.

Quan Jingzhou’s voice echoed in Quan Jue’s mind.

“Heh… Lu Xian…”

He let out a mocking laugh that ran deep into his bones.

…

Chi Jiao’s maternal grandparents’ house was in a high-end villa neighborhood in White City’s Silver Sand District.

“Your maternal grandparents were national researchers back then. You also have an uncle and an aunt. They’re also intellectuals,” Chi Mingwei said with a smile as he walked deeper into the neighborhood with bags in his hands.

Chi Jiao nodded.

Actually, she already knew that.

It was precisely because her mother’s family were all highly educated people that her maternal grandparents did not agree to her mother and father’s marriage back then. This was because when they had begun dating, her father was still a rather hedonistic second-generation heir.

The two elders were afraid that her father couldn’t give her mother happiness.

Later, her father became serious for the sake of her mother. Not only did he take over the Chi family’s company, but he also managed the company well. He used his capability to prove that he was a good man who could be relied on.

“Don’t worry too much. I think your grandparents will definitely like you very much,” he said.

He had said this more than three times on the way.

Chi Jiao sensed Chi Mingwei’s nervousness and chuckled. “Daddy, relax. Don’t be too nervous.”

“I’m not nervous, I’m not nervous,” Chi Mingwei said, but his expression was tense.

As they spoke, they arrived at a white duplex villa.

“Daddy, I’ll go knock on the door,” Chi Jiao said as she walked to the door and rang the doorbell.

Soon, a woman’s voice came from inside.

“Who is it?”

“Hello, I’m Chi Jiao. I’m here to visit my grandparents.” Chi Jiao had a sweet smile on her face and her tone was soft.

The door opened just as she finished speaking.
