The Kitty Became a Cutie and Was Pampered in the 80s-Chapter 946 He Said He Wouldn’t Leave (6)

The Ruanlin Family remained silent, Shu Jie also considered what was mentioned, nodding only after a long while: "Yes, you go, I’ll watch over here."

"Mom, if the Yuan Family comes to visit, please keep an eye on them."

"Alright," the Ruanlin Family replied.

When Ruan Jiaojiao was still asleep in the morning, her three uncles and two aunts also got the news and came to visit her. But she had stayed up almost all night, so she did not wake up at all in the morning and didn’t meet them.

By the time she woke up at noon, they had already left.

Zhao Li didn’t realize until she reached the hospital that Ruan Jai Jiaojiao had spent another tough night, she was both shocked and distressed, holding Ruan Jiaojiao dearly for a long time.

While feeding Ruan Jiaojiao, Shu Jie suddenly said, "Jiaojiao, mom received a notice from school and I need to go on a business trip this afternoon. I’m leaving in the evening. Your godmother and grandma will take care of you these days, alright?" free𝑤ebnovel.com

Ruan Jiaojiao was swallowing her food and turned her head towards her upon hearing this.

Shu Jie spoke earnestly, her face devoid of any other expression, yet she knew she was lying!

After a few more bites, she stopped eating and no matter how Zhao Li coaxed her, she refused to eat and instead looked at Shu Jie and asked, "Mom, where are you going on a business trip? Out of the province?"

Shu Jie was silent for two seconds, then answered: "Not out of the province."

"Mom, you’re lying to me," Ruan Jiaojiao said, very certain of her tone.

She felt dejected: "Jiaojiao is sick, mom is not staying with Jiaojiao, and is even lying to Jiaojiao."

The expression on her face was truly aggrieved, which deeply troubled Shu Jie, making her suddenly feel that perhaps she shouldn’t keep it from her.

"Mom, are you keeping something from me?" Ruan Jiaojiao asked looking at Shu Jie’s conflicted expression. She added, "I’m not a child anymore, Jiaojiao can know everything."

"How old are you to say you aren’t a child." Zhao Li, standing by, laughed and rubbed her little head.

Ruan Jiaojiao pursed her lips, turning her head to look at Zhao Li: "Are you keeping things from me too?"

"Not at all, godmother swears," Zhao Li immediately asserted her innocence. When she arrived, Shu Jie had already entrusted Ruan Jiaojiao to her. Zhao Li believed that whatever required Shu Jie to leave Ruan Jiaojiao must be very important, thus she didn’t ask what it was.

Ruan Jiaojiao fell silent, her head bowed down in dejection.

Shu Jie could only sit beside her, holding her in her arms, softly saying: "Jiaojiao, mom is going to bring Xiaoxi back for you. He... has been detained in Beidu, but rest assured, mom will surely bring him back."

Knowing how much her daughter cared about Xiu Xi, Shu Jie nervously watched Ruan Jiaojiao after speaking.

She expected Ruan Jiaojiao to be very excited or very upset, but unexpectedly, Ruan Jiaojiao only asked calmly, "Why was he detained, did he do something bad?"

Shu Jie shook her head, disclosing all the details without holding back anything.

After listening, Ruan Jiaojiao fell silent, from Shu Jie’s perspective, she could see her eyelashes trembling continuously, revealing her inner turmoil despite her calm exterior.

Ruan Jiaojiao was earnestly scavenging through her memories.

In her previous life, nothing like this had happened. Only Xiu Xun had recognized his ancestors in their hometown. The small antagonist in her previous life, without the Ruan Family’s help, had a tough time and only began to address his basic needs when he became an adult.

From beginning to end, no one from the Duan Family had sought him out, never, never at all!
