Hao Jixin was completely caught off guard as he was sent flying by Ye Jingran's slap before landing on the ground safely with the help of his protector.
This scene immediately dumbfounded everyone.
"Cough! Cough!" Hao Jixin coughed heavily. His face flushed red with anger as he glared at Ye Jingran. "What do you mean by this!?"
Ye Jingran patted her hands as if she was disgusted. "I just wanted to teach you. What's wrong?"
Hao Jixin's face turned gloomy. "Wanted to teach me?"
He suddenly thought of something and pointed at Yun Lintian. "You want to protect him?"
Ye Jingran's slap came after he made a joke about Yun Lintian. Obviously, she was dissatisfied because of this.
Everyone turned to look at Ye Jingran strangely when they heard this. Although Ye Jingran was known as a little devil who did everything at will, she wouldn't attack anyone easily. This meant Hao Jixin's guess should be correct. Ye Jingran clearly tried to protect Yun Lintian.
