Chapter 1698: A Family United by Heart Attacks (5)

"..." Ruan Jie, no way! Someone call an ambulance for him, he’s having a heart attack, he’s going to die!

"Brother, don’t be like this, think about it, I’m only fifteen now, still young, if I don’t set things up early, with Xiaoxi being so outstanding, what if he’s taken away in the future? Now the whole school knows, which means no one will compete with me for him anymore, right? You should be happy for me."

"!!!" Ruan Jie, should I be happy for you?!!!!

"Okay, Xiaoxi is coming to find me, we’re going to Auntie Tang’s place for dinner together, bye-bye." Ruan Jiaojiao saw Duan Xi approaching, immediately waved her little hand and said bye-bye, then jogged to Duan Xi, who held her little hand, their fingers interlocked, and walked together towards the dormitory building.

Ruan Jie stood behind, clutching his chest, watching the two walk hand in hand, especially seeing his silly treasure smiling like a blooming flower, he was about to spit blood in anger!

He felt he couldn’t let this happen, he had to stop it!

Thinking of this, Ruan Jie turned and ran, achieving his personal best, to the front of a small shop at school, picked up the public phone, and called home.

The call was unexpectedly answered by Ruan Jianguo: "Hello? Who is it?"

"Dad, it’s me!" Ruan Jie.

"Who?" The voice was slightly distorted, a bit like an electronic sound. It was unclear whether Ruan Jianguo genuinely didn’t hear clearly or was asking on purpose.

"Ruan Jie! Your son!" Ruan Jie.

"Oh? What do you want? If nothing, I’m hanging up, it’s mealtime here." Ruan Jianguo.

"..." Ruan Jie!

"Don’t, don’t, this is important, Dad, you know I’m acting as an instructor for Jiaojiao at Qing University, right?" he asked.

On the other end, upon hearing this, Ruan Jianguo’s attitude immediately changed, voice filled with urgency: "What happened? Is our dear girl sick? Or injured? Oh, I said she shouldn’t be doing military training, it’s so tiring, this kid just won’t listen, how bad is the injury? You’re her brother, why aren’t you watching over her a bit more, what good are you?"

"No, no, I need to come over immediately, did you call the ambulance? Is the hospital contacted? Huh? Huh? Why aren’t you speaking? Speak!"

"..." Ruan Jie.

Did you give me a chance to speak?

With you rattling away like a machine gun, where was my chance to talk?

Although tired at heart, Ruan Jie still took a deep breath and continued: "Dad, Jiaojiao is fine, she’s not injured or sick, she’s doing well, it’s just..."

Ruan Jie briefly explained today’s events over the phone, and on the other end, Ruan Jianguo listened without responding for a long time.

"Dad?" he called out, a bit uneasy.

"Just wait! I’m coming over right now!" Ruan Jianguo nearly shouted this.

After saying this, he hung up the phone and rushed out, but was stopped by Ruanlin Family as he dashed out of the hall: "Where are you going? Didn’t you see we’re about to eat?"

"Mom! I’m going to Jiaojiao’s school for a bit." Ruan Jianguo replied without stopping his steps.

"What happened? Did something happen to Jiaojiao?" Ruanlin Family asked, filled with concern.

"No, no, nothing, Jiaojiao’s fine." Seeing Ruanlin Family misunderstood, Ruan Jianguo quickly explained, a bit through gritted teeth: "That Xiaoxi kid is being sneaky! How many days have passed since he left, and he’s already up to mischief!"
