He turned and went back into the room, saw a few kids struggling under the lamp, and chuckled, “Alright, that’s enough, bring over the best one you’ve made.”

Little Fatty groaned, covered his face, and handed over one.

The others followed suit, but even after working hard all afternoon, the ropes they made barely passed muster and were nowhere near as good as Ruan Hao’s.

But it didn’t matter whether they were good or not. All Ruan Hao wanted to do was ease his sister’s mind, and he too hoped that the other eight wouldn’t be needed!

As soon as Ruan Jiaojiao ran out from the house, she saw all her brothers, and her parents and aunt were there, which made her freeze for a moment.

How could her dad’s car fit so many people?

“Has our dear treasure been waiting anxiously?” Ruan JianGuo stepped forward, lifted Ruan Jiaojiao up in his arms.

Ruan Jiaojiao was no lightweight now, but what might be difficult for others was as simple as picking up a little chick for him.

Ruan Jiaojiao felt somewhat embarrassed; she hadn’t really let people hold her since she was six, and the older she got, the less she allowed it. She felt it was embarrassing to still be carried at her age.

But she felt so wronged today that when Ruan JianGuo picked her up, she didn’t struggle to get down but just hugged his neck and hummed.

“Where did you all go?” If not for the Ruanlin Family still being at home with her, she would have wondered if she had become alone again.

“Oh, why are Jiaojiao’s eyes red? Such a big girl, still crying?” Shu Wen teased her with a laugh.

Ruan Jiaojiao immediately sniffled and hummed softly. Shu Wen couldn’t bear to tease her anymore and affectionately patted her little head.

Upon entering the main room, Ruan Jiaojiao wriggled free from Ruan JianGuo’s grasp and scuttled into the kitchen, saying, “Nanny has left food for you, Jiaojiao will bring it for you.”

She hadn’t gone far before Ruan Hao picked her up and placed her on a high stool in the main room.

Shu Jiao brought out Buddha beads, and Ruan Hao took out nine peace ropes, laying them in his palm for her to choose, “Pick one you like, and brother will tie it for you.”

Ruan Jiaojiao stared blankly at the nine peace ropes lying in Ruan Hao’s palm, a little stunned.

“Did big brother make all of these?”

“No way, we all made them, one each. Pick one,” Little Fatty wouldn’t let his hard work be credited to his big brother, and he quickly explained. He signaled with his eyes for Ruan Jiaojiao to choose the ugliest one on the side—hum, the one he made.

Ruan Jiaojiao truly froze this time.

Her eyes reddened immediately.

She sniffled, blinked rapidly to hold back the tears that threatened to spill, and after wrestling with her decision in Ruan Hao’s palm for a moment, she chose the decent-looking one in the middle.

Ruan Chi’s eyes lit up instantly—that was the one he had made!

“Okay, this one, right? Brother will tie it for you.” Ruan Hao took the Buddha beads from Shu Jiao’s hand, threaded them through the middle hole, and skillfully knotted a few times to secure the bead in the center of the peace rope.

Ruan Jiaojiao stretched out her little hand and watched Ruan Hao carefully tie the rope on her wrist, tears streaming down.

After it was on, she looked up, her eyes bright and shiny from the tears, and said to Ruan Hao, “Thank you, big brother.”
