Chapter 1013: Chapter 1013: You’re Truly Impressive
As soon as they stepped outside, Mu Tiantian saw Bai Lanlan and two middle-aged men she didn’t recognize approaching.
Mu Tiantian hesitated for a moment, and beside her came Bai Chenyao’s indifferent, icy voice.
"Ignore them!"
Mu Tiantian smiled and nodded, pretended she hadn’t seen anything, and continued walking forward.
But obviously, someone didn’t want them to have their way, or maybe they were determined to stop them.
"Brother Chenyao, so you came early!"
Mu Tiantian kept her gaze straight ahead, anyway Bai Lanlan wasn’t greeting her.
She didn’t stop, and consequently, Bai Chenyao, who was holding her hand, also didn’t stop.
The next moment, Mu Tiantian noticed Bai Chenyao’s body pause slightly, and they both came to a halt.
"Brother Chenyao, I’m talking to you!"
Mu Tiantian felt goosebumps all over from Bai Lanlan’s coquettish tone.
When she noticed Bai Lanlan’s hand gripping Bai Chenyao’s arm, Mu Tiantian’s eyes widened, filled with raging anger.
Before she could react, Bai Chenyao had already swiftly pulled his arm out of Bai Lanlan’s grip, his handsome, cold face an icy mask.
Even Bai Chenhua and Bai Chenchi, standing beside Bai Lanlan, looked somewhat apprehensive.
Although Bai Chenyao was their younger brother, from childhood until now, or rather since Chenyao was five, they had never gained an advantage in front of him.
They understood better than anyone that in their younger brother’s eyes, they were nothing but strangers, akin to outsiders.
If there had to be any ties, it was simply that they all bore the surname Bai and shared the blood of the Bai Family!
"Brother Chenyao!"
Seeing Bai Chenyao silently retract his hand and even begin to remove his coat, Bai Lanlan was dumbfounded.
What she couldn’t accept was yet to come; after taking off his coat, Bai Chenyao threw it directly into the trash can beside him.
"From now on, don’t come within three steps of me!"
The cold, indifferent words, clearly without emotion, yet everyone present felt it was a warning, the final warning.
Should Bai Lanlan draw near Bai Chenyao within three steps again, it was likely her fate would be the same as the coat Bai Chenyao tossed into the trash.
Bai Lanlan’s tears fell, like broken beads, pitiable and precarious, a beauty in tears.
"Brother Chenyao, how can you treat me like this?"
Bai Chenyao gazed at Bai Lanlan with extreme indifference, as if looking at a stranger, his eyes dark and obscure.
"Or else what?"
Without needing Bai Chenyao to elaborate on what "or else" meant, the petite and delicate Bai Lanlan staggered back two steps.
Her teetering form looked especially fragile in the empty corridor, like a flower bud about to be swept off the branch by a violent storm, exuding unspoken frailness and pity.
Bai Chenhua could no longer hold back and stepped forward quickly to support Bai Lanlan, his handsome face gravely stern.
"Chenyao, how can you treat Lanlan like this!"
Mu Tiantian instinctively glanced at Bai Chenhua, noting his tall stature and features not quite resembling Bai Chenyao’s, but he still counted as a middle-aged uncle.
Moreover, with that upright demeanor and erect posture, Mu Tiantian could tell that this middle-aged uncle had been in the military before.
