Chapter 810: Chapter 810: The Stabbing Broken Needle and the Drugged Milk (11) Chapter 810: Chapter 810: The Stabbing Broken Needle and the Drugged Milk (11) Qi Weixinâs sleeping pills belonged to Qi Lian, and a doctorâs prescription was required to obtain sleeping pills. Qi Lian had a total of eight pills; the day before yesterday, he took one, leaving seven pills that were all put into Ruan Jiaojiaoâs milk.
Consuming all seven pills might not take Ruan Jiaojiaoâs life, but it would assuredly make her drowsy, especially with the needle fragments in her stomach⊠the Ruan Family dared not contemplate the consequences.
In light of Ruan Leiâs meritorious service protecting his sister today, Ruan Jianguo praised him generously and even rewarded him with five yuan in change.
As for Xiu Xi, they could never thank him enough, and Shu Jiao became even more resolute in her previous conviction that Xiu Xi must always stay by her daughterâs side. Otherwise, with her own capabilities alone, she might truly be unable to protect her daughter.
The incident became a big deal. By the third period, both Ruan Feng and Lu Zishu had heard about it and rushed to Ruan Jiaojiaoâs classroom.
Lu Zishu complained, âLei, why didnât you tell me! If my mom finds out about this, sheâll definitely beat me up.â
âBeat you up for what?â Ruan Feng asked, puzzled.
âBecause I failed to protect my sister!â Lu Zishu asserted as if it were obvious.
âThank you, Brother Zishu,â Ruan Jiaojiao said, well aware that Lu Zishu was using Zhao Li as a shield. In reality, he was just too embarrassed to say he cared about her.
âTch, donât flatter yourself, I donât care about you,â Lu Zishu retorted, his mouth twisting awkwardly.
Ruan Jiaojiao didnât argue, but just smiled at him and handed him two big handfuls of the soft candies Ruan Jianguo had bought for her before leaving.
All the classmates were willing to cooperate with the inspection and spoke up for her at the last minute. In an instant, Ruan Jianguo transformed into âRuan the Moneybags,â going to the supply and marketing cooperative and buying over ten pounds of candy for Ruan Jiaojiao to distribute to her classmates.
Remarkably, this time Shu Jiao did not object, instead instructing the schoolâs small store to provide each student with a bottle of soda.
For those experiencing their first semester with Ruan Jiaojiao, receiving these candies and sodas was like discovering a new world. They were thrilled with the abundance of treats just for showing their palms.
Those who had been classmates with Ruan Jiaojiao before said that this was nothing extraordinary. It was all just a small sceneâwait and see, thereâd be even more to eat on Ruan Jiaojiaoâs birthday!
Ruan Jiaojiaoâs birthday was only about ten days away. Hearing this, the students were filled with anticipation.
âHey, what do we need you for? I, your brother Lei, can handle these little scenes on my own. No need for you to step in,â Ruan Lei said with an air of bravado.
Ruan Jiaojiao, sitting next to him and peeling candy for him, flattered him: âYes, yes, brother is so amazing.â
Ruan Lei almost grinned from ear to ear, his already large eyes turning into thin slits due to his chubby cheeks.
Xiu Xi was silent on the side; Ruan Jiaojiao immediately started peeling candy for him too, continuing with the flattery: âAnd Brother Xiu, Brother Xiu is amazing too.â
âI will protect you,â Xiu Xi declared, eating the candy she hand-fed him and looking into her eyes with unwavering intensity as if taking an oath.
âI know, you all will protect Jiaojiao, Jiaojiao isnât scared at all,â said Ruan Jiaojiao.
âAnd me too, Little Frog, I will protect you as well,â Yang Tao quickly followed up, peeling a candy for herself.
Ruan Jiaojiao nodded earnestly; she knew she was very fortunate!
At lunchtime, Ruan Jianguo and Shu Jiao arrived along with the Ruanlin Family. Shu Jiao initially wanted to take Ruan Jiaojiao back home, but Ruan Jiaojiao felt fine and decided not to go back. Shu Jiao had no choice but to bring back a change of clothes for her.
