Ten minutes later.
Chi Jiao, who was standing obediently in the corridor, saw the young man walking towards her from afar.
A few seconds later, she fell into his embrace.
The young man's body carried the cold air from outside, but his embrace was boiling hot.
"Are you hurt?" Quan Jue asked softly.
Only the heavens knew how panicked he was when he saw Jiaojiao and the kidnappers confronting each other on the rooftop and almost falling from the top of the tall building.
At that moment, he completely understood what was going on.
He couldn't live without Jiaojiao.
She was the light he relied on to survive.
Without this light, he could only rot and stink in the dark.
It was better to die than to live like that.
"No." Chi Jiao felt that the superficial injuries on her body were nothing.
Since she had promised Jiang Shen that she would temporarily take over 117's matters, she was destined to deal with all kinds of dangerous Espers. Injuries would become a common occurrence, and there was no need to take such a small injury to heart.
Quan Jue heaved a sigh of relief and grabbed her shoulder. He lowered his head and looked straight into her eyes. "Do you know what danger is?"
Chi Jiao could sense that he was really angry. Like an obedient kitten, she looked at him obediently and nodded. "I know."
Seeing how obedient she was, Quan Jue's anger was stuck in his heart, unable to go up or down.
He really couldn't bear to lose his temper with her.
Sighing softly, Quan Jue raised his hand and pinched Chi Jiao's face. "Don't do such a dangerous thing again."
Chi Jiao nodded vigorously again. "I'll remember."
This attitude was simply too good.
Quan Jue felt even more helpless.
Sometimes, he wished that this delicate girl could be more spoiled and unreasonable. In that case, he wouldn't be as reluctant to lose his temper with her as he was now.
She was really a little ancestor sent by the heavens to subdue him.
*****
The soul-stirring day passed quickly.
At night, Chi Mingwei saw Chi Jiao's heroic rescue on the news on his phone.
That's right. The news of Chi Jiao saving someone on the rooftop had already been reported by the media. There were pictures and the truth, but they were just erasing the fact that Zhen Xiaoqing was an Esper. They only mentioned the scene of her fighting with Zhen Xiaoqing at the edge of the rooftop.
Anything sensitive about superpowers was not allowed to be posted on the internet. It was just a means to stabilize social order.
The scene of Chi Jiao and Zhen Xiaoqing almost falling off the rooftop was also recorded by the bystanders who were playing with drones and posted online.
In the video, Chi Jiao looked extremely calm. Her movements were agile and handsome. There was a huge contrast between her innocent and cute face, but she was so handsome that it made people want to scream.
The number of views of the video reached 100,000, and the comments were all praising Chi Jiao. Many people were captivated by her doll-like appearance. They only felt that the girl was clean and beautiful like a deer fairy, making her adorable.
Chi Mingwei briefly read the comments.
"Hero? Superman? Awesome? … "Chi Mingwei muttered a few words with a high repetition rate. He simply wanted to throw his phone away.
He looked up at Chi Jiao and Quan Jue sitting at the dining table.
Quan Jue picked up a piece of braised carp and picked out the visible bones on the fish before bringing it to Chi Jiao's mouth.
