Duan Xi held her protectively with one arm, and Ruan Jie really couldn't move any further. Even though he intentionally wanted to tease her, seeing her unhesitatingly escape into another man's arms made him slightly uneasy. He retrieved his hand with a pout and sighed with a bit of melancholy, "Ah, you're not even an adult yet, and you're already siding with outsiders." He shook his head incessantly afterward.
Jiaojiao made a face at him, and only emerged from Duan Xi's embrace after tidying her hair.
Meanwhile, as soon as Jiaojiao and the others left, Ruan Chi turned to look at Ruan Wei and Yaya, who was still sitting on the ground, and said coldly, "Come over here."
Ruan Wei pursed his lips, glanced at Yaya on the ground, and reached out to help her up. The two of them followed behind.
Ruan Chi led them out of the hotel's premises, only stopping under a tree's shade.
