Chapter 14 The adults were taken aback , becoming even more displeased . " Hey , what do you mean ? We genuinely have your best interests at heart . How can you ask us to leave ? " She remained calm and resolute . " I don't want to be adopted right now! I don't want any of you to adopt me either ! " The adults widened their eyes in disbelief . " What right do you have to choose not to be adopted by us ? Aren't you just an orphan ? " " That's right ! Nowadays , can orphans choose their own parents ? It's already good that someone wants to adopt you . Do you think you're all that just because you have some popularity ? What's wrong with you , kid ? " Laura widened her eyes in surprise . " It's you who lack manners ! " Frustration made her chest rise and fall , and she tried to stand up to move away from them . But the adults aggressively blocked her path . " Wait , you haven't heard us out yet ! We genuinely want what's best for you ! " As Laura tried to stand , she lost her balance and ended up falling onto the ground . A dull ache spread from her buttocks . Grace exclaimed , " Laura , did you hurt yourself from that fall ? " Laura endured the pain and patted her own buttocks . She was about to get up when several pairs of hands reached out toward her . " Come , take my hand ! " " Hold onto mine ! Hold onto mine ! " She wrinkled her nose in further aversion . She didn't want them touching her . She hated these people ! In that instant , a dark figure suddenly darted forward , prying their hands open . An angry and strong voice followed . " Get lost , you bunch of monsters ! " Laura raised her head in astonishment , locking eyes with the smoothly defined jawline of Zayn . He held her tightly , like a wolfling , and stared at the adults menacingly . The tone in the live - streaming channel shifted abruptly . [ Oh my gosh ; her childhood sweetheart descends out of nowhere ! ] [ The handsome young man is so charming , I like him ! ] [ Ah , I was really angry at first , but how did I suddenly fall for him ? It's so strange ! ] [ The young man is so good - looking ! He is such boyfriend material ! ] Laura looked at Zayn in shock . " Zayn , what are you doing here ? " The live streamers quickly reacted and scrutinized Zayn from head to toe . " Who are you , kid ? What right do you have to interfere ? We can do whatever we want . We'll decide what we want to do with her . You can step aside ! " 1/2 17.04 Mon , 11 Aug Chapter 14 Without hesitation , Zayn turned to the door and shouted , " Get something to hit them and kick them out ! " The live streamers were taken aback , and then they saw a few boys standing behind them , eyeing them like wolves . The boys grabbed books and started throwing them at the live streamers . " Get out of here ! " " Don't come near us ! " " Go away ) " The adults were caught off guard , stumbling back and finally creating a path . They panicked even more . " What are you kids doing ? Have you lost your mind ? We're here to adopt a child . How can you treat us adults like this without any manners ? " Zayn reprimanded angrily , " Manners ? You're looking for manners at an orphanage ? What about you ? You barged in out of nowhere , ignoring the rules and getting too close to Laura . Where are your manners ? " He held onto Laura's hand tightly like a steadfast mountain , not even trembling Laura's eyes gleamed . Zayn … He really was the coolest ! One female live streamer shouted as she approached , " You're such an impolite child . Let me tell you ; I've recorded all of this . I can see your face . " [ Madam , are you really in a position to talk about manners ? How could you have the nerve ? ] [ Idiot !] Zayn's eyes were full of determination as he faced the camera directly . " Laura is under my protection . I will stand up for her ! Your video recording doesn't scare me ! " He grabbed the Cinderella book from the table and fiercely hurled it at the female live streamer . " Get lost ! " 2/2 田 AD Comment Send gift
