Xu Dong! Where are you going?” Before he could ask clearly what was happening, Chen Zhiqi saw Jiang Xu Dong about to turn and leave. He hurriedly spoke up to stop Jiang Xu Dong, but Jiang Xu Dong only paused slightly.
“Brother! Brother!”
Originally limp in Chen Zhiqi’s arms, Jiang Xiao Ge saw Jiang Xu Dong’s departing back and, as if gaining immense strength from nowhere, suddenly broke free from Chen Zhiqi’s embrace. She rushed forward and tightly hugged Jiang Xu Dong’s shoulders from behind, repeatedly calling out, “Brother, brother, listen to me, listen to me…”
“You’re calling me brother?”
Hearing Jiang Xiao Ge address him this way, Jiang Xu Dong was slightly stunned, but there was no wavering in his expression. He woodenly allowed Jiang Xiao Ge to hug him from behind, his tone cold, “You’re surnamed Jiang, I’m surnamed Jiang. You were never my sister, and I was never your brother! Now I’m telling you, I don’t have a sister like you, no!”
Jiang Xu Dong forcefully pulled apart Jiang Xiao Ge’s arms, slowly turning around and facing the utterly desperate Jiang Xiao Ge. “No!” he said in an extremely cold tone.
Seeing Jiang Xiao Ge being flung away by Jiang Xu Dong again, Chen Zhiqi hurriedly caught her and turned dissatisfied toward Jiang Xu Dong. “Xu Dong, what exactly happened? What can’t be discussed properly?”
“Ask her, ask this damned woman!” Jiang Xu Dong glared fiercely at Chen Zhiqi, his eyes seeming to emit flames.
“Xiao Ge?” Chen Zhiqi hesitantly looked at Jiang Xiao Ge in his arms. He didn’t know what she could have done to make Jiang Xu Dong so furious.
Jiang Xiao Ge nestled in Chen Zhiqi’s arms, tears streaming, desperately looking at Jiang Xu Dong’s angry eyes.
Yang Xingyuan gently bit her lip, gazing blankly at the chaotic scene in the general manager’s office, unable to imagine what was happening.
“What’s going on? What happened?”
“Is it a fire? Where is the fire source?”
“Secretary Yang, please rest assured, the fire department is already on its way!”
Just as Yang Xingyuan stood frozen at the doorway, a large group of people rushed up to the eighth floor.
At this moment, the alarm from the broken fire escape window screamed through the corridor.
