Chapter 1758: Engagement Banquet (10)

"Are you talking about Chi brother?" Jiaojiao hesitated. Her brother Chi seemed to have something going on with Xiaona. Although she also liked Li Que as one of her sisters-in-law, a love triangle was still not desirable. In love, there’s only room for one; any more would be superfluous.

"Is his name Ruan Chi?" Li Que laughed, "Then I want that one. You have to remember to matchmake us!"

"Really?" Jiaojiao was troubled.

"Of course it’s true. I think he’s quite nice. I like that type."

"But... my brother Chi seems to have someone he likes." Last time at the dance hall, she saw him being quite intimate with Yang Xiaona in the hallway. She figured there must be something going on between them. Moreover, the way Yang Xiaona got to know her brother Chi was quite similar to the situation with Liang Wenjing and Ruan Feng.

"I see." Li Que sighed with disappointment, then turned her eyes to Ruan Jun, who was driving in the front: "Then how about this brother? He’s quite nice too."

"Screech..." The car elegantly skidded, swerving along the road in a rather sultry S-shaped path.

"!!!" Ruan Jun almost drove the car into the ditch.

"Sister Que!" Jiaojiao didn’t sit firmly, and because of the swerving, she fell into her arms.

Li Que didn’t expect such a big reaction from her joke. Under Duan Xi’s cold gaze in front, she quickly pushed Jiaojiao out of her arms, helped her sit up straight, put her hands together, and kept apologizing: "Sorry, sorry."

Duan Xi saw that Jiaojiao was not hurt, so he retracted his icy gaze. As soon as his eyes withdrew, Li Que exaggeratedly shrank her neck and did not dare to babble anymore.

Since the Ruan family was quite a distance from the school, roughly a two-hour journey, it would waste a lot of time going back and forth, so Jiaojiao and her group headed straight to the hotel.

This engagement banquet was held at the Ruan family’s hotel, grand and impressive. As soon as Jiaojiao’s car stopped, Zhao Li and Shu Wen, who had been waiting outside, came forward to greet them.

The Ruan family handled affairs efficiently and thoughtfully. Knowing Jiaojiao would bring classmates, they set up a separate private room at the hotel, allowing them to rest before the engagement banquet started, making it more comfortable.

Li Que and the others were ushered into the private room, while Jiaojiao was taken to the second floor, where Shu Wen’s professional makeup artist and stylist were waiting for her.

As the makeup was almost done, Gu Zichen arrived holding Little Potato.

The three-month-old Little Potato had changed a lot. The last time Jiaojiao saw him in the hospital, she nicknamed him Little Potato because he was a little dark and yellow. But now, three months later, he seemed to have had a whitening shot, becoming fair and chubby, incredibly adorable.

Jiaojiao couldn’t help but pick him up and tease him.

Little Potato also seemed particularly fond of this cousin. As soon as Jiaojiao picked him up, he giggled, baring his gums, his big eyes narrowing to slits.

Next to them, Gu Zichen laughed and said, "If his dad sees this, he’ll definitely be muttering again."

"What will Uncle mutter about?" Jiaojiao asked curiously.

Gu Zichen replied amusingly, "Little Potato doesn’t like your uncle. As soon as your uncle touches him, he cries. So your uncle says they must have been enemies in a past life."
