Chapter 976: Chapter 976: Itâs the Season of Love (2)
ââŠâ Ruan Jianguo, having not received his daughter Tiantianâs thanks, felt somewhat uncomfortable and handed the egg to Shu Jiao, who disdainfully glanced at the unevenly peeled egg and refused.
âDad, give it to me, I want it.â Ruan Jie reached out his hand.
Ruan Jianguo swallowed it in one bite and said in a very cold voice, âDonât you have hands? Peel it yourself.â
ââŠâ Ruan Jie, fine, Iâll peel it myself.
Ruan Jie and Ruan Jianguo both had large appetites, and although they bought a lot of breakfast, both of them finished it without wasting a bit.
After the family finished breakfast, the train slowly started moving; Ruan Jiaojiao didnât want to lie down, so she snuggled on Shu Jiaoâs bed reading storybooks, Xiu Xi sat beside accompanying her, the Ruanlin Family and Ruan Jie were tidying up the things on the table, Ruan Jianguo and Shu Jiao went to wash fruits.
Ruan Jiaojiao was engrossed in her storybook when she suddenly heard a little girlâs voice: âGrandma, Brother Xiaojie, let me help you, I know how to work, I can cook and do laundry at home.â
Her tone was deliberately soft and whiny, as if she was acting coquettishly.
Ruan Jiaojiao looked up.
âNo need, no need, we canât let you do this.â the Ruanlin Family said, because they were facing a little girl, even if they didnât like her much, the tone was still fairly normal.
The little girl chuckled again: âItâs okay, Grandma. You are getting old, you should rest properly, donât strain yourself. Just leave this to me and Brother Xiaojie.â
Ruan Jiaojiao blinked; why did she feel a sense as if she and her brother were a couple?
Could it be that this young girl really fancied her brother?
Ruan Jiaojiao couldnât help but look her up and down; she indeed looked pretty â quite delicate, clean and tidy, apparently about the same age as her brother.
Ruan Jiaojiao thought that fifteen or sixteen was just about the right age to start becoming aware of romantic feelings.
She wasnât sure if her brother liked this girl.
She looked at Ruan Jie, who had just finished cleaning up and was getting ready to take out the trash, meeting Ruan Jiaojiaoâs penetrating gaze; he blinked in confusion, squatted down and asked, âWhatâs wrong? Didnât have enough to eat?â
Ruan Jiaojiao shook her head; she wasnât a big eater, having had two eggs, half a cob of corn, and nearly half a meat bun, how could she still be hungry?
âThen stay here nicely, donât run around, Brother will go throw out the trash.â Ruan Jie said, affectionately ruffled her hair, and then stood up to leave.
The little girl who was originally talking to the Ruanlin Family immediately followed him, continuously calling out, âBrother Xiaojie, Brother Xiaojie,â which made Ruan Jiaojiao shiver.
âCold, huh? Want to put on another shirt?â the Ruanlin Family just brought over a comb, ready to untangle and redo Ruan Jiaojiaoâs messy ponytail.
Ruan Jiaojiao shook her head, and continued reading her storybook. the Ruanlin Family, concerned, wrapped her lower body with a blanket before bending down to tie her hair.
When Ruan Jie came back after throwing away the trash, the little girl was still following behind.
Constantly calling out âBrother Xiaojie, Brother Xiaojie,â perhaps she called too many times, Ruan Jie annoyed, directly turned and said, âAre you sick? Do I know you? Why are you trailing me? Your mom is over there.â He pointed in the direction of a lady in her fifties or sixties, chatting and laughing uproariously.
The girl, suddenly refused proximity, blushed and looked at him somewhat aggrieved.
