Chapter 52
Qiao Chuchu suddenly realized and started signing: "I'm sorry I bumped into you; I didn't know you were behind me."
The silver-haired boy: "!"
He smiled as bright as the sun: "You know sign language?!"
Qiao Chuchu nodded: "Yes, I know sign language and lip reading!"
She felt a little secretly pleased inside: [Hahaha! I never thought the skills the system gave me would actually come in handy one day!]n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
She had maxed out all the skill experience she could accumulate.
But they were all obscure and practically useless.
She had thought she would never use them in her lifetime.
Who would have known that today, not only did she succeed in racing, but she even used sign language.
All that was missing was a gun to let her experience her sharpshooting skills.
Wait.
Why was she getting off track?
[Right now, I should be concerned about the safety of my beloved Yu Can! I need to keep an eye on whether she gets hit by a car! I don't have time to chat with a handsome guy!]
Qiao Chuchu waved at the silver-haired handsome guy: "Goodbye."
The silver-haired handsome guy's mouth curved upwards, almost reaching his temples, as he watched Qiao Chuchu leave.
His eyes sparkled with greed, like a predator eyeing the most delicious prey, fixated on her retreating figure.
Then, with a sinister smile, he looked at Yu Can.
"Sister," the silver-haired boy signed quickly with his porcelain-white hands: "That woman's voice is echoing in my head!"
He was as excited as a boy seeing Superman for the first time, his hands almost blurring with the speed of his signing: "What's most amazing is that this is the first time I've ever heard a voice, and I can understand it!!"
Yu Can: "?"
What?
Could her brother Weisheng Huailing hear it too?
She signed: "What did you hear?"
Weisheng Huailing was ecstatic: "She said you're going to get hit by a car!"
Yu Can: "? Aren't you a little too happy about that?"
Huailing didn't care, instead, he was thrilled: "Do you usually hear people's voices in your head?"
Yu Can frowned: "No, her voice is her inner thoughts. I just guessed that. Not everyone can hear it, like these two beside me can't."
Huailing's eyes widened with excitement: "So the only voice I'll ever hear is hers? If I tell her my name, can I even hear how my name sounds?"
Yu Can: "? That's only if she remembers you and mentions you in her thoughts."
Huailing grinned: "Good."
Without hesitation, he walked towards Qiao Chuchu.
Yu Can: "? Huailing? Weisheng Huailing!"
She suddenly stood up, wanting to follow him, but a wave of dizziness hit her, and she plopped back into her wheelchair.
Li Jiahao and Xia Xuechun beside her were arguing louder and louder.
Xia Xuechun cried and covered her face as she left: "I never thought you were like this. I thought you were a hardworking and ambitious Jiahao ge! You've disappointed me so much. You're no different from those money-hungry people!"
Li Jiahao called after her: "Xuechun!"
Xuechun didn't look back.
Li Jiahao gritted his teeth and pushed Yu Can's wheelchair, chasing after her!
The dizzy Yu Can gripped the chair's handles: "What are you doing? Using me as a booster?! Let go of me if you're going after her!"
After saying that, her oxygen-deprived brain made her dizzy again.
Li Jiahao ignored her, shouting after Xia Xuechun: "Xuechun! Wait, let me explain!"
Xia Xuechun ran toward the road, crying: "I don't want to hear it! You've changed. You're not my Jiahao ge anymore!"
As she stepped onto the road, a car sped towards her!
Xia Xuechun froze!
Li Jiahao pushed Yu Can aside and rushed towards Xia Xuechun: "Xuechun!!!"
Yu Can's wheelchair was pushed forward, throwing her onto the road!
Yu Can was flung into the air!
All she could think was—
Qiao Chuchu's inner thoughts were true.
She—Weisheng Yu Can, the feared "demoness" in the industry, was about to be killed by two idiots!
Suddenly, a strong force grabbed her arm and pulled her into a hug!
She was a bit taller than the person holding her and instinctively hugged them back like a bear.
Yu Can froze, looking at the person she was holding.
Qiao Chuchu looked like a little hamster peeking out from her embrace: "Are you okay, Yu Can jie?"
Weisheng Yu Can was shocked: "Qiao Chuchu?"
Chuchu nodded obediently: "Yes! It's me!"
Weisheng Yu Can half-opened her mouth, suddenly becoming excited: "You... how did you—"
Qiao Chuchu calmly pressed her shoulder and said seriously: "Sis, I told you earlier, Li Jiahao is bad luck for you!"
[Luckily, I predicted this and was already waiting on the road. Otherwise, my favorite character would have been killed! What a pity that would have been!]
Yu Can couldn't believe it.
Although she didn't know exactly what was going on, she vaguely understood the situation.
Qiao Chuchu had changed her fate of dying.
Because Qiao Chuchu liked her... this character.
In comparison, Li Jiahao and Xia Xuechun were the ones who almost killed her.
She immediately looked at the two idiots.
Li Jiahao was still hugging Xia Xuechun tightly, completely unaware of what had almost happened. He was heartbroken: "I'm sorry, Xuechun. I'll return the money right away. I won't do such things again to disappoint you. Please forgive me."
Xia Xuechun buried her face in his chest, crying: "Jiahao ge... I feel so helpless, so scared..."
Yu Can's murderous intent surged as she wanted to step forward.
Qiao Chuchu stopped her: "Wait."
Qiao Chuchu took off her shoes: "Leave it to me, sis."
Yu Can: "?"
Qiao Chuchu jumped up and smacked Li Jiahao on the back of the head with her shoe: "You almost killed Yu Can jie!!"
Li Jiahao winced and turned around: "?!"
Xia Xuechun immediately shielded Li Jiahao: "Qiao Chuchu, I won't let you bully Jiahao ge!!"
Qiao Chuchu immediately took off her socks, threatening fiercely: "Xia Xuechun, let me tell you, I hit Li Jiahao with my shoe, but I'll hit you with my cotton socks. Don't think socks don't hurt—I hit, and you'll feel it!"
Xia Xuechun: "?????"
Pei Youchuan and the other Pei brothers looked at Qiao Chuchu in shock: "Qiao Chuchu, what are you doing?"
The car that almost hit Yu Can was theirs.
As they braked, they saw Qiao Chuchu suddenly appear from the sky, save a woman, and then start taking off her shoes and socks.
The Pei family, the Lin family, and Lou Tingsi all looked at the woman Qiao Chuchu had saved.
?
Weisheng Yu Can?!
Qiao Chuchu brightened up when she saw them: "Pei Youchuan, you're just in time. Take off your socks."
Pei Youchuan: "? Why?"
Qiao Chuchu didn't answer, putting her socks back on while threatening Xia Xuechun: "Let me tell you, watch your words. Otherwise, I'll use Pei Youchuan's socks to slap your nose, making your sense of smell run away and never come back!"
Xia Xuechun: "..."
Pei Youchuan: "..."
Lin Qing smacked his lips: "Oh no, her words are starting to smell."
The others looked at Pei Youchuan: "How bad must your feet smell?"
Pei Youchuan gritted his teeth: "I wear odor-resistant socks, and it's winter!!"
Qiao Chuchu raised a finger: "Winter can't stop my brother's true power!"
The others: "Pfft!!!"
Pei Youchuan's mouth twitched violently as he walked to Qiao Chuchu's side: "Fine, you're messing with me, huh? Well, big brother's got your back."
He took off his shoes: "Big brother's got two socks and two genuine leather boots for you! Who dares to bully my sister!"
He pointed the two shoes and socks at Li Jiahao: "Is it you!!!"
