Chapter 45 - Determined to protect.

After the performance, XiangXiang stormed to Wu Ya. He violently pulled Wu Ya's collar. His action was as fast as lightning, no one had time to stop him. Even Su Ruan. Even WenWen. Everyone stood still like statues waiting for time to moldy. No one could have imagined that XiangXiang would act like this.

Wu Ya just watched XiangXiang calmly. He even stopped others from coming to comfort XiangXiang. He wanted XiangXiang to express everything that was hidden in his heart. From XiangXiang's trembling hands, he knew that XiangXiang was suffering at that moment.

"Where is she!?"

XiangXiang shouted. He was on the verge of tears. But his eyes were sharp and full of anger. His breath was like an angry buffalo. Heavy and hot.

"She's not here. She's on sick leave. Did you forget?"

Wu Ya said softly. His eyes looked at XiangXiang's face. The blood veins were clearly visible on that face. It seemed that XiangXiang was really at the end of his wit.

"Call her! Tell her to come now!"

XiangXiang shouted again. His voice was hoarse and tearful, somewhere between angry and disappointed. His heart really couldn't take it anymore. He really felt like he was going to lose all his sanity. His tears slowly flowed down his plump cheeks. His chest felt tight and painful. It felt as if it would explode at any moment.

"Calm down XiangXiang. We'll punish her tomorrow. Don't worry, she won't get away again. We promise that."

Wu Ya's voice was soft. Trying to persuade XiangXiang who was about to go berserk. Tears really flowed down his face, but his eyes didn't cry at all. Those eyes were filled with anger. The anger that turns into revenge.

Angrily, XiangXiang released his grip on Wu Ya's collar. Maybe he knows that everyone is on his side. Or maybe he's just really disappointed. He turned and approached Jun. The safest place for him at that moment.

"I'm tired..."

XiangXiang's voice was trembling as he buried his face in Jun's chest. Without a sound, he cried there. Everyone could only remain silent. Feeling all the pressure that XiangXiang need to bear.

Jun hugged XiangXiang and cried too. He really wanted to put XiangXiang under his protection. If he had to lock his little brother up, he would do so. But he couldn't go against the laws of nature. XiangXiang needed to live in his own world. Facing his own problems. But why was the path his little brother had to go through so hard? "Oh God, if there was a mistake my little brother made in his past life, punish me instead. Don't make my little brother continue to suffer like this." Jun pleaded in his heart.

Everyone shed tears as well, feeling their sadness. The pain they had to endure. And everyone there, including their juniors, was determined to protect XiangXiang with their own hand.

"Brother WenWen, who did all that to brother XiangXiang? We will punish that person together."

Zu Xin asked curiously. His face really looked determined. WenWen just smiled. It's really good to have juniors who are so caring and understanding.

"Don't worry about that. Just focus on your performance."

WenWen said softly. He didn't want to drag their juniors into their mess. He knows that all this happened because of him. Because he failed to protect XiangXiang from Fanfan's madness.

"And you boys. Your performance is about to begin. Get ready and remember, if you want to help brother XiangXiang..."

WenWen said firmly to his juniors as he glanced at XiangXiang who was still crying in his brother's arms.

"Put on the best performance so that everyone in the audience forgets about what happened. Can you at least do that?"

All the juniors nodded with confidence and determination. Their eyes burned with passion. WenWen smiled. So did the others.

"Do your best, boys. After all this is over, we'll all go on vacation. And everything will be on me."

JiaJia said proudly. All eyes were on JiaJia. Each one couldn't believe it. Then their eyes turned to Su Ruan and Mei Lin. "It has nothing to do with the two of us." Su Ruan and Mei Lin shook their heads simultaneously.

"Oh...Come on, boys. Don't look at me with your side eye. It really hurts my

pride."

JiaJia said trying to convince everyone. He also one of the Pei siblings. Compared to him and his brother and sister, does he look so unconvincing to everyone?

"I always believe in you"

XinXin said with a sweet smile. He began to learn to trust the man in front of him. JiaJia also smiled. He knew that even though XinXin was always annoying, he was always by his side. At least he tried to believe it.

"I believe in you too"

All eyes were focused on the owner of the voice. XiangXiang was still burying his face in his brother's chest. Too embarrassed to face the others after he had lost his mind a moment ago. Everyone started to laugh at XiangXiang who play coy in his brother's arms.

"Brother XiangXiang! We will take revenge for you!"

Out of nowhere, a voice shouted. Loud and echoing throughout the room. All eyes were focused on the owner of the voice. The little boy among their juniors stood tall and confident.

XiangXiang lifted his face from his brother's chest. With his swollen eyes, he look the face of the juniors he was teaching without a blink. Liu Mu Zhe. Second year student. A cheerful and always enthusiastic person. XiangXiang smiled.

"Make sure you nail its kid."

XiangXiang gave Mu Zhe a thumbs up. Mu Zhe smile brightly.

"Um! Come on everyone! Lets we rock our stage! Make that person regret!"

The cheers were loud. Everyone gave Mu Zhe and his friends a round of applause.

JiaJia smiled proudly. Now he was sure that his efforts were worth it. "JX Entertainment will be a great company in the future. It's not just money, but a family that helps each other." JiaJia gaze at XinXin. "Can I really expect him to lead them with me?"

Su Ruan, Wu Ya, Mei Lin and Jun looked at each other. "Now our main task is to eliminate the pest infestation."

"Massage Ruirui to drag the pests to see us tomorrow."

Mei Lin whispered to Su Ruan. They need to resolve this matter as soon as possible before XiangXiang suffers worse than this.

Su Ruan nodding and took out his mobile phone.

"I want you to drag her to school tomorrow. I won't accept any excuses. I just want her by tomorrow!"

The message was sent. Su Ruan held his mobile phone tightly. Tomorrow will be a long and muddy day.
