Big Shot Little Jiaojiao Breaks Her Persona Again

Chapter 108: You Mean That Lad, Quan Jue, Doesn’t Like You?

In the beginning, Chi Mingwei couldn’t figure out what the unusual atmosphere between Jiaojiao and Quan Jue was.

It was Zhu Limin who had reminded him earlier that they were probably dating behind their backs.

The more Chi Mingwei thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible. His heart began to burn with rage.

Chi Jiao had just entered the study when she felt the difference in atmosphere.

Her father sat on the boss’s chair with a gloomy expression. When she entered, she saw that he was no longer smiling.

This was the first time Chi Jiao had seen such an ugly expression on her father’s face in the few days that she had been back.

“Daddy.” Chi Jiao walked quietly to the table and called out softly.

When Chi Mingwei saw Chi Jiao staring at him timidly with her big, wet eyes, the anger that had gathered in his heart was instantly extinguished.

He couldn’t keep the gloomy expression on his face, either.

He let out a sigh.

“Jiaojiao, what’s going on between you and Quan Jue? Auntie Zhu said that the two of you are in a relationship. Is that true?” As someone who wouldn’t hide his thoughts, Chi Mingwei asked bluntly.

Chi Jiao felt that her father was truly a straightforward man. Otherwise, why would he betray Zhu Limin so easily like that?

Now, she knew that it was Zhu Limin who was pulling strings again.

A cold glint flashed past her eyes before disappearing in the next second.

Chi Jiao’s signature smile appeared on her face, sweet and harmless.

“Dad, I’m not an adult yet,” she said.

Chi Mingwei’s heart had just returned to his stomach when he heard that, only to hear her speak again.

“I like Brother Quan. But because I’m not an adult yet, we’re not in a relationship,” Chi Jiao said with a smile.

She didn’t need to hide her feelings for Quan Jue.

It was still the same sentence.

It didn’t matter even if the whole world knew that she liked him.

Chi Mingwei almost had a heart attack!

He looked at Chi Jiao in disbelief and only spoke after a long time.

“Jiaojiao, are you saying that Quan Jue doesn’t like you?!” Chi Mingwei was furious!

It was that lad’s blessing that his precious daughter had taken a liking to him, yet he dared to reject her?!

His focus on this issue turned out to be on Quan Jue rejecting her. Chi Jiao felt that her father was really cute at times.

However, it also proved that he truly loved her.

“It’s because I’m not an adult yet. Brother Quan doesn’t know that I like him yet.” Chi Jiao’s cheeks reddened and her eyes sparkled.

Although she admitted her feelings outrightly, it was still inevitable that she would feel embarrassed.

Chi Mingwei’s brows furrowed so tightly that they could squeeze a fly to death. He really couldn’t bear to berate Jiaojiao.

At that time, he had also fallen in love with Jiaojiao’s mother at the age of 17 or 18.

He knew what it was like to be moved at such a young age.

But, why was it Quan Jue?

“Jiaojiao, listen to Daddy. You still don’t understand it now, but it’s fruitless between you and Quan Jue in the future.” Chi Mingwei tried his best to keep his tone calm and gentle so as not to scare her.

“Why?” Chi Jiao asked.

She could sense that Quan Jue hated the Chi family in her previous life, but she didn’t know the exact reason.

Chi Mingwei looked at her fair and petite face, not wanting to say anything cruel.

But hiding it from Jiaojiao would be even worse for her.

Chi Mingwei sighed. “I adopted Quan Jue because of his mother.”

Chi Jiao asked, “Are you old friends with Brother Quan’s mother?”

In her previous life, she had also known five years after Quan Jue left the Chi family that he was the illegitimate son of the Quan family in Shang Jing.

The Quan family was the number one elite family in Shang Jing. After Quan Jue left the Chi family, he didn’t return to the Quan family. Instead, he spent three years building his own business empire before returning to the Quan family. It took less than two years for him to take over the family and become its head.
