"What's wrong, Jiajia?"
However, Jiajia, who was lying there, did not react at all when she heard Xia Jie's voice.
Her eyes were tightly closed, her face streaked with tears, and she clutched her chest with both hands, pleading frantically and helplessly.
"No...don't do this..."
· ·······Request flowers····· ······
Seeing Jiajia's reaction, Xia Jie looked puzzled and gently shook Jiajia awake.
"Jiajia, Jiajia, wake up,"
When Jiajia woke up, her face was covered in tears, and she was still in a state of fear.
Seeing her panicked expression, Xia Jie hugged Jiajia and comforted her.
"Jiajia, don't be afraid, you're at your sister's house."
Perhaps feeling Xia Jie's embrace, Jiajia suddenly burst into tears.
Recalling Wu Mingcheng's gesture to her that evening, Xia Jie immediately realized that there must be some hidden story behind this.
She patted Jiajia's back and gently comforted her.
"Just tell your sister anything, and she'll help you make decisions."
......... .. 0
Jiajia left Xia Jie's embrace, took out her phone from beside the pillow, found a video, and handed it to Xia Jie.
Xia Jie took the phone; the video was clearly filmed secretly, with the camera pointed at Jiajia herself.
In the picture, Jiajia is sitting there drawing when suddenly the tightly closed door opens.
Jiajia's stepfather, Mr. Yu, walked in. Although he was all smiles, there was a hint of lewdness in his expression.
"What are you doing, Jiajia?"
Jiajia immediately became alert, her body stiffening instantly, and she answered cautiously.
"draw,"
Mr. Yu asked as he approached Jiajia,
"Homework assigned by the teacher?"
Xia Jie could clearly hear that Jiajia's voice was trembling slightly.
"right,"
At this moment, Mr. Yu leaned down towards Jiajia, resting against her back.
Furthermore, he immediately put his arm around Jiajia and said in a frivolous voice,
"Your drawing has improved! Are you cold?"
At this moment, Jiajia fiercely resisted Mr. Yu's assault, and the screen suddenly went black, clearly because the phone had been touched.
The video only recorded Jiajia's voice.
"What are you doing? If you keep doing that, I'll scream! Auntie, Auntie!"
Then, the sound stopped, and the door closed.
Chapter 501 Uncontrollable Rage
After watching the video, Xia Jie froze, her hands and feet turning ice-cold.
She never expected that Mr. Yu, who seemed so respectable, would be such a person.
No, he couldn't describe it as a human; it was a beast.
At that moment, Xia Jie understood why Jiajia preferred working at the bar to going home.
She then looked at Jiajia beside her, who was already in tears and in great distress.
She hugged Jiajia tightly, trying to give her some warmth, and kept saying...
"Alright, alright, it's all over now. You can stay here, and no one can bully you."
Jiajia cried in Xia Jie's arms, and Xia Jie kept comforting her. Gradually, Jiajia fell asleep.
Early in the morning, Xia Jie opened her eyes, glanced at Jiajia beside her, and quietly left her room.
After she arrived in the living room, she first made a phone call to Li Dawei, Chen Xincheng's apprentice.
They are police officers from the local police station, on call 24/7, so naturally they can't turn off their phones.
Li Dawei yawned repeatedly as he answered the phone.
"It's only five o'clock, what are you doing? Can't you say something during the day?"
Xia Jie spoke up.
"Come here right away. I've opened the door for you. Just come in. It's about Jiajia, it's very important, come right now."
Li Dawei was initially not in much spirits, but upon hearing that it was about Jiajia, he immediately jumped out of bed.
"Okay, I'll be right there,"
Li Dawei simply put on his pajamas and went to Wu Mingcheng's house.
Next, Xia Jie went to Wu Mingcheng's door and gently knocked.
Although Wu Mingcheng exercises and practices boxing every morning, it was still a while before his usual wake-up time, so Xia Jie undoubtedly woke him up.
Xia Jie pushed the door open and walked in.
Xia Jie's frequent visits to Wu Mingcheng's room were already commonplace.
Wu Mingcheng had just opened his eyes when he saw Xia Jie by the bedside and asked in confusion,
"Xiaojie, what's wrong? Why did you wake me up so early?"
Xia Jie spoke with a heavy expression.
"Mingcheng, get up quickly. I need to talk to you about something. It's about Jiajia. I've already asked Li Dawei to come over. You should get ready too."
After the two of them came out of the bedroom, Li Dawei had already come in and was pacing back and forth in the living room.
Li Dawei seemed to have discovered something, pointed at them with his finger, and gave them an exaggerated expression.
"you……………………………"
Before he could finish speaking, Xia Jie interrupted him.
"Alright, I can't joke with you anymore, let's get down to business. I don't have time for idle chatter."
Noticing Xia Jie's tone of voice, both Wu Mingcheng and Li Dawei had a bad feeling.
They exchanged a glance, then looked at Xia Jie at the same time.
Under their watchful eyes, Xia Jie looked hesitant and found it difficult to speak, stammering repeatedly.
"This, this, this…………………………"
Li Dawei said impatiently.
"Xiaojie, what's wrong? Tell me, what happened to Jiajia?"
Xia Jie then said,
"You two promise me you'll calm down, okay? You have to promise to listen to me calmly."
Li Dawei took a deep breath.
"Go ahead and tell me, what haven't I seen? I promise, just tell me,"
Wu Mingcheng immediately sensed something was wrong; this matter was definitely not simple. He also nodded silently.
Xia Jie glanced at Wu Mingcheng with concern, then spoke.
“Last night, Jiajia was awakened by a nightmare and showed me her phone. It contained…”
After hearing Xia Jie's account, Wu Mingcheng felt a chill run down his spine. Thankfully, he hadn't let Jiajia go back with her mother.
What kind of beast is this? How could he choose to harm his own stepdaughter? He's utterly unworthy of being a child.
This is probably why Jiajia would rather work at a bar to earn money than go home.
That's absolutely right. Having finally escaped the wolf's den, how could one possibly go back?
After hearing this, Li Dawei immediately flew into a rage and said without any politeness,
"That beast, damn it, I think he's tired of living."
Seeing Li Dawei's reaction, Xia Jie quickly said,
"Li Dawei, you just promised to stay calm,"
Li Dawei said without any regard for the consequences.
"Calm down! Tell me, how can I stay calm when I encounter scum like this? Watch how I deal with him!"
Xia Jie grabbed Li Dawei's arm, glanced in the direction of the bedroom, and whispered, "
"Li Dawei, what are you doing?"
