Now Jordan Han was holding Janet in his arms, unable to be able to either think or move, and Kate Song was hugging Daniel tight in her arms.
The situation they were in was very weird. When he saw what was happening, Spark stepped back a couple of paces and went around them silently and slipped into his Bentley.
Daniel pushed Kate off of him and strode towards Janet, who he rudely dragged down off the man in the army uniform she was up on. "Janet Shao, this is the company's gate!" warned Daniel.
"Of course I know this is the company's gate! Do you think I'm blind?" Janet thought better and decided that she shouldn't listen to Daniel anymore. She couldn't believe that he refused to help her not even in her worst moments of fear!
When she thought of this, Janet felt hurt and her eyes became instantly red. This proved that Daniel did, indeed, really hate her!
"Then take care of your esteem! How ridiculous of you to be climbed on a man here!" She wasn't just hugging him, Janet was climbed up the man with her legs on his waist. Daniel was so furious that rage seemed to be burning in his eyes, and he wasn't even conscious of it.
Facing his blaming words in such a loud voice, Janet suddenly burst into tears: "It's none of your business! I just want to hug him!" Then she threw herself into Jordan's arms again.
...
Daniel's look in his eyes was so sharp that it seemed it was just about to pierce straight through the soldier who seemed to have popped up out of nowhere.
Kate watched all of this in silence, and judging from Daniel's reaction, she knew that this little girl, who was embracing an unknown man, was not a common girl after all.
Janet cried like a little baby, and Brian fondled her head like a big brother. He stared back at Daniel fearless.
"Mr. Soldier, you are so handsome! Can you please be my boyfriend?" Janet thought that she had to go back and tell her sworn mother that she would not be engaged to Daniel anymore.
Brian, with a smile on his tanned face, asked with a gentle voice: "What's your name?"
Janet choked a little, and after she wiped her tears off, she said to Brian: "My handsome boy, my name is Janet Shao." Brian was dumbfounded when he heard this name.
'Janet Shao...'
Brian's hand stopped and remained still above her head.
When Daniel noticed the strange expressions on Brian's face, he rudely dragged Janet off his arms, and said "Now behave yourself and go back home!"
"And why should I listen to you?" protested Janet. She tried to get rid of his big hands around her.
From an outsider's perspective, they looked like... a couple that quarreled in the street.
"Janet Shao." The man called out her name softly, which made Janet suddenly turn back and curiously look at him.
He took out something out of his pocket and handed it over to Janet: "Here is a letter from Bill."
Bill? Janet was eager to know about what had happened to Bill and why he hadn't shown up yet for days. She got rid of Daniel and took the folded envelop from Brian's hand.
"Thank you. Where is Bill now?"
With a sunny smile on her face, the girl was so happy to have received this letter, but the smile implied... nothing about happiness. It was just the pleasure of catching up with an old friend.
Her reaction made Brian feel unexpectedly more relaxed.
"Bill is now in the suburban troop unit." Looking at her face, Brian couldn't help but adding some words: "If you want to write him back a letter, you can contact me and I could help you deliver it to him."
"That's good, how could I contact you?" Bill was a good friend, and of course she was going to write back to him.
