"I know. Last night, Xingzhi said that he would ask lawyer Jiang to meet us in Yuan City today." Jiang Yao nodded. Then, she said goodbye to Lu Yuqing and followed A Lu and Da Ke to board the plane.
There was no direct flight from the city to Yuan City. The three of them first got off the plane at the airport in a neighboring city, then transferred to the train to Yuan City. They took a taxi and went straight to Zhou Xiaoxia's house.
Zhou Xiaoxia's house was in the city of Yuan City. She lived in a small apartment on the third floor.
Jiang Yao knocked on the door. When Zhou Xiaoxia opened the door, she was shocked to see that Zhou Xiaoxia's cheeks were thin and sunken. How many days had it been since the winter vacation? Zhou Xiaoxia had lost a lot of weight. Her face was pale and bloodless, and there were dark circles under her eyes. It was obvious that she had not had a good rest for a few days.
As soon as Zhou Xiaoxia opened the door and saw Jiang Yao, she immediately threw herself into Jiang Yao's arms and wailed, "Jiang Yao, you're finally here. I don't know what to do. I don't know what to do."
Jiang Yao's heart ached. She repeatedly comforted Zhou Xiaoxia softly. Then, her gaze fell on a girl two steps away. That girl looked to be about sixteen or seventeen years old. It was winter, but she stepped barefoot on the ground as if she did not feel cold. Her eyes were filled with fear and vigilance toward a stranger like her. She stared at Zhou Xiaoxia in her arms. Her mouth moved slightly as if she was calling her sister.
Thinking of Zhou Xiaoxia saying that her sister was now afraid of seeing strangers, especially strange men, Jiang Yao gestured to A Lu and Da Ke behind her to wait outside. Then, she entered the house with Zhou Xiaoxia.
As soon as they entered the house, Zhou Xiaoxia's sister quickly stuck to Zhou Xiaoxia's side. She held Zhou Xiaoxia's arm tightly and carefully avoided Jiang Yao.
"You're Xiaocheng, right? I'm your sister's classmate. When we were in school, I often heard your sister mention you. My name is Jiang Yao. " Jiang Yao smiled at Zhou Xiaocheng. However, when Zhou Xiaocheng saw her, she quickly hid behind her sister, Zhou Xiaoxia, and did not look into Jiang Yao's eyes.
"Is she like this when she sees everyone?" Jiang Yao asked.
Zhou Xiaoxia wiped her tears and nodded, "Other than Brother, she's like this when she sees everyone else. She's very afraid of strangers and even men. It's fine when she sees girls, but when she sees strange men, she's so scared that she screams and screams and makes a fuss.
Zhou Xiaoxia looked at the empty house and felt a burst of bitterness in her heart, "There's no one else in the house now except us two sisters. My brother was taken away by the police because he beat up Chai Xianglong's men. The Chai family wants to put my brother in jail because they have money and power, but my brother is only sixteen years old. He's not an adult yet."
As Zhou Xiaoxia spoke, Moe poked Jiang Yao's backpack. Then, he poked his head out of Jiang Yao's backpack and looked outside. When Lu Yuqing came back, he hid in Lu Yuqing's suitcase and followed her back. When Jiang Yao came to Yuan City, she stuffed him into her backpack and brought him with her.
