Chapter 1247: Chapter 1247: Don’t Steal My Brother Xu (6)

Probably knowing what she was thinking, Xiu Xi imdiately moved the cup of plum juice to another spot, aning that since she couldn’t drink it, he wouldn’t either.

Ruan Jiaojiao could only pout her little mouth in boredom.

Their interaction didn’t escape Duan Qianyang’s eyes. Watching their movents, he couldn’t help but smile again and then realized he seed to have smiled quite a lot today, which prompted him to sigh.

After finishing the al, it wasn’t suitable to get up and leave imdiately. The three stayed in the private room, and although Duan Qianyang usually only drank red wine, he kept drinking glass after glass of plum juice, finding it quite enjoyable.

After putting down the cup again, he looked at the young couple beside him and unexpectedly asked, “Jiaojiao, Uncle Duan ca today to take your Brother Xiu back, but he doesn’t want to go. Could you help persuade him?”

Ruan Jiaojiao didn’t expect Duan Qianyang to ask this suddenly and was montarily stunned.

Xiu Xi’s expression changed imdiately, and with a strong presence, he stood up, intending to leave with Ruan Jiaojiao’s hand in his.

It wasn’t until Xiu Xi had pulled her to the private room door that Ruan Jiaojiao reacted and quickly stopped Xiu Xi.

Xiu Xi had a stormy expression, looking extrely displeased.

Duan Qianyang behind them was looking at Ruan Jiaojiao, seemingly genuinely hoping she would persuade him.

Ruan Jiaojiao carefully examined his facial expression. With Duan Qianyang’s current stance, he wouldn’t easily let others see through his thoughts.

She watched for a while but couldn’t tell if he was serious.

However, she felt in her heart that Duan Qianyang wouldn’t do that. From the first ti she t him, she thought he was particularly open-minded and especially fond of Xiu Xi as his son. Perhaps, deep down, he really hoped Xiu Xi would go with him, but she believed he wouldn’t force him.

If not, then three years ago, at Beidu Train Station, he wouldn’t have dragged his ailing body to let them go, and there would be no need to pull a stunt like this three years later.

She pondered in her heart, then led Xiu Xi back to the table, standing in front of Duan Qianyang without sitting down, and seriously said, “Uncle Duan, I can’t promise you that.”

“Oh? Why not?” Duan Qianyang asked.

He glanced at his son behind her, who wished he could devour him with his eyes, finding it truly astonishing.

Ruan Jiaojiao paused for a mont before replying, “Because Brother Xiu grew up here and is familiar with it. Now in high school, it’s an essential turning point in his life. If he suddenly changes places, he might not adapt well.”

“That’s not a big issue; the Duan Family can hire tutors for him, even if his grades drop. He’s only in his first year of high school, plenty of ti to catch up,” Duan Qianyang countered, acting as if he was determined to take Xiu Xi away.

Ruan Jiaojiao pressed her lips tight.

She looked back at Xiu Xi, who was also watching her without speaking, as if entrusting her to handle the situation.

Ruan Jiaojiao steadied herself, turned to Duan Qianyang, and finally showed a bit of urgency, pleading, “Uncle Duan, Brother Xiu won’t be happy going with you. He likes it here. If you miss him, we can visit Beidu every sumr vacation so he can keep you company. Please, don’t take my Brother Xiu away, okay?”
