Chapter 1737: I Want Them All Dead (7)

By the time Jiaojiao got upstairs, half an hour had already passed.

Li Que didn’t have many specialized courses, and there was no training in the afternoon, so she rested in the dormitory. Jiaojiao chatted with her for a while, talked about what happened last night, and when Liang Wenjing and Cao Qiu returned, Jiaojiao stood up and invited the three to come to her house for dinner.

Upon hearing Jiaojiao say she actually had a house outside the school, the three were shocked.

Li Que was full of envy, pinching her cheeks and pulling them to both sides: "Little One, you really make people jealous!!"

To have a house in Beidu at such a young age, and it’s around Qing University, where the house prices are over three thousand! You should know that the combined monthly salary of her parents is only half of the house price!

That’s really downright envy-inducing!

Seeing Li Que’s envious and jealous expression, Jiaojiao also laughed, feeling shy to tell her that actually, she had recently acquired another property, and it was a villa.

Yes, it was supposed to be the birthday gift Duan Qianyang wanted to give Duan Xi, but Duan Xi didn’t accept it. When they set the engagement date last time, Duan Qianyang transferred this property to her name, saying it was her betrothal gift, and even included that AD car in her name too.

So now Jiaojiao has four properties under her name, and speaking of them, her houses have great potential for appreciation, either a villa or a school district house. The school district house near Yuansu was the one distributed by Shu Jiao’s unit, currently occupied by Ruan Qun’s Uncle Ruan’s family who is in Beidu accompanying his studies.

And over in Beidu is the Hengya duplex outside Qing University, right next to Qing University High School.

In the future, when she graduates, if she doesn’t want to work, she can live happily as a rent-collecting little parasite.

Of course, Jiaojiao still doesn’t know at this point that to ensure she can stand tall in the Duan Family in the future, Ruanlin Family actually prepared a set of villas for her, and later Lord Shu, somehow knowing about this, also prepared a villa as her dowry, recently bought and being secretly renovated, prepared to hand over the key to her on her engagement day.

So Jiaojiao’s wish to become a rent-collecting landlady, living happily as a parasite, is completely achievable.

When the four arrived downstairs, Duan Xi was already waiting. He came forward and took her hand when he saw her, and Jiaojiao blushed amidst Li Que’s teasing, but still couldn’t bear to shake off Duan Xi’s hand.

The Ruan Family is warm and hospitable, and the Ruanlin Family’s cooking skills are good; even the initially shy Cao Qiu eventually felt at home with the Ruan Family’s enthusiasm.

After dinner, it was still early to return to the dormitory, so Jiaojiao took the three into her room.

Although Jiaojiao doesn’t often stay here, she still has a big family photo of the Ruan siblings. At first, it was Li Que who saw it; she pointed at the photo and asked Jiaojiao, "Little One, are these your brothers?" As she spoke, she started counting.

In a photo, there were ten people including Jiaojiao, precisely nine brothers, no more, no less.

And another photo included two more, matching what Jiaojiao said about nine brothers plus two godbrothers.

Jiaojiao nodded, and Liang Wenjing and Cao Qiu curiously looked over.

When Liang Wenjing saw that particularly familiar face in the photo, she paused, then with disbelief pointed at one of them and asked Jiaojiao, "Jiaojiao, is this also your brother?"
