Chapter 1264


    Holding Abbott''s hand, Jasmine said, "Dad, you''re thinking too much. Mr. Chen and I came out to


    eat because I wanted to apologize to him. There are no other intentions."


    "Apologize? Why do you need to apologize?" Abbott frowned and questioned.


    Jasmine then quickly updated Abbott about what had happened on the bus. Only then did Abbott''s


    expression rx a little.


    He nced at Fade before saying to Jasmine, "Even if there''s nothing going on this time, you still


    have to be careful. You''re not allowed toe out alone with any guys in the future."


    "Don''t turn a deaf ear to your master''s words and my words. Don''t think that you can do whatever


    you want when we''re not around you," Abbott looked at her sternly.


    Jasmine could not help but feel a little ufortable when she heard his words. She pouted as she


    said, "Dad, I''m already neen years old. I''m already an adult, so I can do what I want. There''s no


    need for you to worry so much."


    "What do you mean you''re an adult now? What do you mean you can do what you want? Are you


    going to go against your master and me?" Abbott snapped.


    His stern expression made Fade feel a little ufortable. He could not help but frown while


    reminding Abbott, "Mr. Zhuo, you should probably tell Jasmine nicely if there are any problems,


    especially when Jasmine is already an adult. Somethings..."


    "There''s no need for you to worry about my daughter," Abbott interrupted Fade and red fiercely


    at him. "Since you''re a teacher, you should focus on doing your job well in ss. You don''t have to


    worry about anything else outside ss."


    "Uh..." Fade''s expression fell as he heard Abbott''s words.


    "I''m sorry, Mr. Chen," Jasmine said hurriedly while giving Fade an apologetic look. She then turned


    her gaze to her father and continued, "Dad, why are you speaking so rudely to Mr. Chen? He was


    just being nice. Why are you..."


    Abbott waved his hand impatiently, stood up and said, "Alright, let''s not talk about this now. Your


    master is in the city. Why don''t youe meet him with me?"


    "Huh, Master is in Capital City? Did something happen?" Jasmine asked in a curious yet surprised


    tone.


    Abbott replied, "You''ll know when you get there. Alright, stop talking. Let''s go now."


    After saying that, Abbott immediately grabbed hold of Jasmine''s hand, preparing to leave.


    Jasmine couldn''t help but frown, but she could only wave her hand to bid him goodbye. "I''m sorry,


    Mr. Chen. I have to leave first," she said to Fade.


    Fade looked at this strange father-daughter pair and replied, "It''s alright, go ahead. If there''s


    anything you need, you can contact me. I''ve already given you my contact information in the ss."


    "Yes, I will..." Jasmine nodded in agreement, but before she could finish her sentence, she had


    already been pushed and shoved out by Abbott.


    When the father and daughter walked out of the restaurant, Abbott even turned his head to re at


    Fade sternly before leaving.


    Fade shook his head gently and went back to the school after finishing all the food on the table.


    There were no sses in the afternoon. Fade was sitting and sorting out the lesson n in the


    office. Realizing that it was gettingte, he packed up his things and left the office.


    However, Joey hade looking for him before he could leave.


    Ignoring the gazes of everyone, Joey went straight to Fade and intimately called him "brother" while


    wrapping her hand around his arm.


    In an instant, Fade felt that everyone''s gaze was like countless sharp arrows, watching him sharply.


    "Joey, you''re going to get me into trouble! Can''t you see the gazes of those boys? It seems that


    they can''t wait to eat me alive!" Fade couldn''t help butin.

    However, Joey did not let go of her hand on his arm. She pouted and said, "Brother Fade, don''t


    make excuses. Even without me, the eyes of those boys will still be the same."


    "How could that be?" Fade shook his head.


    Joey immediately took out her mobile phone and showed it to him. "Why would they not? Brother


    Fade, look. This is the hot topic on the school''s forum. Everyone is saying that you are a highly


    efficient campus belle hunter. It''s only been a few days since school has started, but you have


    already gone out with the campus belle, Jasmine. So, even without me and because of Jasmine,


    those boys will still treat you the same way."


    Fade fell speechless as he scrolled through thements on the school forum.


    s, he did not expect that he would be themon enemy of all the boys in Capital


    University just a few days after he came to the school.


    Joey pulled Fade''s arm and said with a grin, "Brother Fade, stop sighing. Let''s go eat."


    "Again?" He frowned.


    "Thest meal we had was ruined by Wilton and those guys from the Szeto Academy. Brother


    Fade, please treat me again!" Joey said while looking at Fade with pitiful eyes.


    Fade''s heart immediately softened upon seeing her pitiful look. He patted his chest and said, "Joey,


    what do you want to eat? Just tell me. I will take you anywhere!"


    "Great, I can eat some expensive food again," Joey cheered. After saying that, she took out her


    mobile phone and made a phone call while exining to Fade, "I''ll ask Yankee toe with us.


    Let''s eat together."


    The phone was finally connected only secondster. Joey smiled and asked, "Yankee, have you


    gotten off work? Let''s go out and have a meal together. Brother Fade will be treating us today, so


    we can have a good meal."


    "Ah, I''m sorry, Joey, but I still have something to do. I can''t get off work yet so I can''t eat with you.


    You can go without me," Yankee replied in a hoarse voice.


    "Why haven''t you gotten off work yet? Are you so busy with your work?" Joey could not help but


    pout.


    Just then, the sound of yelling and screaming could be heard on the other side of the phone. "How


    do you do things? Who allowed you to talk on the phone during work hours? Get over here now!"


    Then, the phone call ended.


    Joey and Fade''s faces darkened as they looked at each other.


    "Brother Fade, did you hear that? Yankee seems to have encountered some trouble. Why don''t we


    go over to check on her? I''m very worried about her," Joey said.


    "Okay, let''s go," Fade agreed with a nod as he walked out of the school with Joey. "Joey, is


    Yankee''s family situation bad? Why is she working when school has just started?"


    Joey nodded and replied in a low voice, "Yankee came from the countryside and she is the eldest


    daughter in the family. She has a younger brother. Originally, her family wanted her to get married


    after finishing high school so that they could obtain a sum of dowry money for her younger brother."


    "Butter, because Yankee''s college entrance examination grades were good and she was ranked


    first in her state, the school awarded her a sum of money. Furthermore, with Yankee''s insistence,


    her family had no choice but to allow her toe to Capital City to attend university."
