Zhao Li, hearing this, laughed again. After greeting everyone from the Ruan Family, she specifically turned to Ruan Jiaojiao and said, "Jiaojiao, goodbye."
Ruan Jiaojiao looked at her, at the woman whose eyes were filled with affection for her, and ultimately couldn’t resist. She waved her hand and called out, "Auntie Li, goodbye."
Zhao Li’s eyes immediately brightened.
She ran down from the motorcycle sidecar, hugged her tightly, and gave her a big kiss, knocking some of the chocolates out of her pocket in the process. After that, she let her go.
After seeing off the reluctant Lu Family, Ruan Jiaojiao looked at her bulging little dress and the scattered chocolate beans all over the ground with a certain helplessness.
The woman from the Ruanlin family stepped forward to help her pick them up and asked, "Jiaojiao, you don’t auntie?"
Ruan Jiaojiao shook her head and replied, "No, I’m just a little embarrassed." Besides that, she didn’t know how else to respond; she couldn’t possibly tell the woman from the Ruanlin family that she disliked her because in her previous life, the woman was the protagonist’s godmother.
This was the secret she hid in her heart, something she could tell the woman from the Ruanlin family anything about, except for this one thing.
Because she couldn’t afford to lose.
She would never dare to let the Ruan Family know that she was no longer the original Ruan Jiaojiao, but a Wandering Spirit from another place, occupying the body of the person they cherished most!
Hearing her response, the woman from the Ruanlin family had no suspicion.
Lu Xian had brought plenty of chocolates for Ruan Jiaojiao, which she divided evenly among her several older brothers, naturally including the little villain’s share, though he had a stern face the whole time and didn’t take any.
Ruan Jiaojiao knew he was stubborn and didn’t mind it.
However, what she hadn’t expected was that he would vanish again that evening. The woman from the Ruanlin family muttered to herself while locking the back door of the kitchen, because Xiu Xi rarely went out in the middle of the night, except for yesterday evening.
Having gone out again today, she hoped he wouldn’t bring back a crowd of animals.
The woman from the Ruanlin family felt unease in her heart and couldn’t settle down, turning over multiple times in bed before finally managing to close her eyes late into the night.
In the middle of the night, as soon as the kitchen’s back door made a noise, she woke up at once. Groping in the dark, she opened the door, and indeed saw a yard full of livestock, thankfully without any Ferocious Beasts this time, all chickens, rabbits, and goats.
But even so, the woman from the Ruanlin family’s heart grew weary!
There were so many, where could they hide them all!
Ruan Jiaojiao woke up with the woman from the Ruanlin family this time and, looking at the full yard of animals, deeply questioned her life. Compared to the little villain, her own golden touch was nothing.
"What’s that noise?" Ruan Jie awoke as well, rubbing his eyes as he made his way over and was nearly astounded when he saw the animals in the backyard.
Just as he was about to shout, the woman from the Ruanlin family covered his mouth.
She gave him a stern look, "Go call your father over!"
Ruan Jie blinked, still not quite recovered from the shock, groggily went to call Ruan Jianguo.
Ruan Jianguo, seeing the yard full of animals, had a similar expression to the woman from the Ruanlin family. He wanted to speak about Xiu Xi, but looking at his expressionless face, ended up saying nothing. Instead, he sighed and had him, as usual, drive the animals back to the new building.
After being busy for most of the night, they finally finished up.
He couldn’t even worry about sleeping and called Xiu Xi out, giving him a stern warning, "Xiaoxi, don’t do this again in the future, understand?"
Xiu Xi, not having received affirmation from Ruan Jiaojiao that day, was also feeling unhappy, with a sullen face, he didn’t reply.
