CapĂtulo 1735: Chapter 1735: I Want Them All Dead (Part 5)
But as she hopped around, another thing came to mind, so she asked Ruan Jianguo, âWhereâs Brother Xi? Does he know weâre going back?â
Ruan Jianguo didnât speak, his expression a bit awkward. Ruan Jiaojiao immediately understood and tugged at his arm coquettishly, âDad, letâs go find Brother Xi together, otherwise he wonât even know I went back.â
Ruan Jianguo was extremely reluctant, but faced with Ruan Jiaojiaoâs pleading, he could only helplessly follow her to find Duan Xi.
Because Duan Xi had a class in the morning, Ruan Jiaojiao dragged Ruan Jianguo around the school until it was almost time, then waited downstairs in the building where Duan Xiâs class was.
As soon as class was over, students flocked out of the teaching building.
Ruan Jiaojiao, being beautiful, stood there attracting a lot of attention from the students, while Ruan Jianguo stood beside her with his chest out proudly, his eyes full of pride.
However, this pride and arrogance quickly vanished upon Duan Xiâs appearance.
What made him even more exasperated was when Ruan Jiaojiao saw Duan Xi, she immediately abandoned him and fluttered over to Duan like a butterfly, the two of them holding hands as if he didnât exist!
âUncle,â Duan Xi, with fingers intertwined with Ruan Jiaojiaoâs, said as they walked over.
âHmph!â Ruan Jianguo snorted coldly, stepping forward to pry apart their joined hands, saying, âThis is still school, what does it look like to be pulling and tugging? Sweetheart, you walk on the left, and you â on the right!â
Ruan Jiaojiao was already used to this behavior from him, and Duan Xi, silent for a few seconds, didnât protest. After all, although Duan Qianyang hadnât taught him much, he did hint about being more accommodating to his father-in-law.
And so, Ruan the Big Shot returned to Hengya with such a posture, separating the young couple.
At Hengyaâs duplex, though Ruan Jiaojiao and Duan Xi hadnât lived there, someone came by every now and then to clean, so it was very tidy inside. Ruanlin Family and Shu Jiao could settle in with just a little tidying up.
As soon as Ruan Jiaojiao entered, she smelled the familiar aroma of food, happily bounding into the kitchen to cuddle Ruanlin Family for a bit.
After lunch, Shu Jiao went in to chat with Ruan Jiaojiao for a while, subtly asking some questions to ensure she wasnât psychologically affected by last nightâs events, before finally coming out of the room.
The door had barely closed behind her when Duan Xi caught her attention.
âAuntie, I want to move out of the dorm with Jiaojiao and live here,â Duan Xi said directly to Shu Jiao.
Actually, thinking back on last nightâs events still gave Duan Xi a fright; Ruan Jiaojiaoâs luck was really good this time. If something had really happened, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Shu Jiao was silent; since the incident, she had been considering this too.
But leaving the two young ones to live here alone was worrisome to her; and itâs not feasible for Ruanlin Family to stay here. Not to mention whether the family would agree, it would be too lonely for Ruanlin Family compared to staying in the villa, where she could plant vegetables, feed chickens, and chat with the Lu Family next door in her spare time.
âI promise to take good care of her and not⊠bully her,â Duan Xi added, blushing a bit as he spoke the last three words, clearly understanding Shu Jiaoâs concerns.
