Chapter 125: 125, His Dominance and Tenderness (Third Update) _1 Chapter 125: 125, His Dominance and Tenderness (Third Update) _1 Quan Yifei was truly a food lover, having tried all sorts of delicacies in Beijing. She took Jian Qing to the most famous hot pot restaurant in Beijing.
Enjoying hot pot in the height of summer, with the air conditioning on, was a unique pleasure.
In the private room, Quan Yifei watched the person opposite her, who was eating without breaking a sweat, a twitch at the corner of her mouth.
She couldnât help but ask, âJian Qing, donât you think itâs too spicy?â
She considered herself a spice fiend, but this person outdid her.
Jian Qing, âItâs okay.â
Quan Yifei fell over, ââŠâ
Halfway through the meal, Quan Yifei put down her chopsticks, âJian Qing, do you know that Xiang Chengâs legs are paralyzed, and heâs also become mute?â
âHuh?â Jian Qing looked at her, a flash of puzzlement in her eyes.
She remembered that she was the one who had crippled Xiang Chengâs hands, but she didnât remember ruining his legs.
Quan Yifei, âMy aunt is the deputy dean of that hospital and also a doctor. She happened to be at home when she had come back and talked about it.â
A glint of thoughtfulness flashed in Jian Qingâs eyes, and she asked, âWhen did this happen?â
âIt was the day when you ruined Xiang Chengâs arms and he was sent to the hospital. He was said to have been taken away in the middle of the night, and when he was found again, he ended up like this.â
Seeing Jian Qingâs confusion, Quan Yifei propped her chin on her hand and said, âDonât you know? I thought you already knew.â
Jian Qing shook her head, âI havenât been back to the An Family house in the past few days, and I wasnât paying attention.â
She had crippled Xiang Chengâs hands, and coincidentally his legs got paralyzed that night. There couldnât be such a coincidence.
She lightly tapped her fingers on the table, a flash of thought passing through her eyes.
Could it beâŠ
While thinking, the smile on her lips spread to her eyes, with a touch of warmth spreading from her heart.
That person always protected her with his actions, domineering yet gentle, it was irresistible!
âJian Qing, what are you laughing about?â Quan Yifei asked.
âNothing, letâs eat.â Jian Qing lowered her head and kept eating, but the curve of her smile stayed intact.

At the Chu Family house, it was gloomy.
Once back home, Chu Ruohan rushed back to her room, totally on edge, almost smashing everything in her room. The loud noises from inside scared the servants away.
âYoung Master!â
Seeing Chu Yihen come back, the servants breathed a sigh of relief.
âWhereâs Hanhan?â Chu Yihen glanced around the room, finally looking to the butler.
âMiss went upstairs as soon as she got home. Sheâs nowâŠâ The butler started to stammer towards the end.
âBangïŒïŒâ
A loud noise suddenly came from upstairs. Chu Yihenâs eyebrows froze. He didnât wait for the butler to finish speaking and directly went upstairs.
âJian Qing, why do you always try to compete with me?â
âJian Qing, I hate you, I hate youâŠâ
As he reached the door, Chu Yihen heard the shouting from inside the room. He hesitated for a moment before he knocked on the door.
âHanhan, open the door.â
There was a slight noise from inside the room. Before long, the door was opened.
âBrother!â
Chu Ruohan was barefoot, her hair disheveled, and her face still held a trace of residual anger.
Chu Yihen looked past her, observing the wreckage in the room, his eyes darkening, âHanhan, what have you done?â
Chu Ruohan twisted her hands, not daring to meet Chu Yihenâs gaze, âBrother, IâŠâ
âAs the Young Miss of the Chu Family, is this all youâre capable of? Throw a tantrum and break things whenever something doesnât go your way, huh?â Chu Yihenâs tone was neither harsh nor light, but it made her feel inexplicably scared.
âBrother, I, I was wrong, just now I onlyâŠâ Chu Ruohan said carefully.
âOnly what, only you provoke others and end up getting trampled, so you felt wronged and came back to break things, is that right?â
She had been nursing her grievances, but now even her own brother was scolding her. Chu Ruohan couldnât help but tear up, large drops of tears falling.
âBrother, I just wanted to buy that shirt for you, but Jian Qing was clearly insulting me in the store. Itâs all her fault.â
She choked out, her words veiled with loathing for Jian Qing.
Chu Yihen looked at her impassively, âHanhan, you are no match for Jian Qing. So, stop provoking her.â
