A middle-aged woman appeared before Chi Jiao.
She was slender and wore light-colored loungewear and a pair of silver-framed glasses, looking very intellectual.
She seemed to be between forty-five and fifty years old.
As Chi Jiao looked up at the woman who was taller than her, the woman’s eyes were glued to her.
“Are you really Chi Jiao, Xiaoyi’s daughter?” The middle-aged woman automatically ignored Chi Mingwei, who was behind her. Her eyes gradually turned red as she looked at Chi Jiao.
Chi Jiao nodded with a smile on her fair face. “You’re my aunt, right?”
She had seen this woman in her previous life. She was her mother’s older sister, Ruan Yazhen.
However, in this life, she could only pretend that it was her first time seeing her and making a blind guess.
“Yes, I’m your first aunt.” Ruan Yazhen almost cried at Chi Jiao calling her “aunt”.
The first time she saw Chi Jiao, she had thought of Ruan Xiaoyi because Chi Jiao looked similar to her mother.
“Big Sis, long time no see.” Chi Mingwei finally mustered his courage and greeted her.
Only then did Ruan Yazhen realize that there was someone behind Chi Jiao. After opening the door earlier, her attention had been completely drawn to Chi Jiao, so she didn’t notice Chi Mingwei.
When her gaze landed on him, Ruan Yazhen’s expression quickly turned cold. “You’re here, too.”
Sensing her coldness towards him, Chi Mingwei looked embarrassed. “Yes, it’s the new year. I brought Jiaojiao to visit Dad and Mom.”
Ruan Yazhen had wanted to shut Chi Mingwei out like before, but now that Chi Jiao was here, she couldn’t scare the child.
With that thought, Ruan Yazhen sighed. “Come in, let’s talk.”
Chi Mingwei looked at Chi Jiao in surprise. This was the first time he was not shut out by the Ruan family after Ruan Xiaoyi passed away.
Chi Jiao blinked her eyes at her father and smiled gently.
The father and daughter followed Ruan Yazhen into the living room.
The living room was deserted and it seemed a little cold.
Ruan Yazhen invited them to sit on the sofa before pouring them some hot tea.
Then, she sat down opposite them.
She couldn’t help but look at Chi Jiao.
She had carried her before when she was just born.
At that time, the little girl was so soft. In her arms, she was like a piece of jade, and she was very adorable.
At that time, she felt that this girl would definitely look like her mother when she grew up.
Chi Jiao’s eyes were exactly the same as her mother’s.
When she thought of her younger sister who had passed away early, Ruan Yazhen felt a little upset. She looked at Chi Jiao lovingly and said, “In the blink of an eye, Jiaojiao has become a big girl. Your grandparents have always missed you. If it weren’t for your strange-tempered god grandfather who refused to let us see you, we would’ve definitely gone to Mount Li to visit. How is your body now?”
“My health is a lot better now, just like a normal person,” Chi Jiao said with a smile.
Actually, her god grandfather had stopped her family from seeing her not because of his strange temper and his dislike of others disturbing him at Mount Li as the rumors said. It was because of her unique condition. She wasn’t a Postnatal Esper, but an Innate Esper. From the moment she was born, she had awakened her special ability’s magnetic field. Moreover, her special ability’s magnetic field was very special. It could easily affect the magnetic field of a normal person and bring about negative effects on them.
Her god grandfather said that she was a rare dual-ability Esper.
