Chapter 1276: Chapter 1276: Survival Through Desperation (9)
The death of Ruan Jiaojiao, besides dealing a huge blow to the Ruan family, also profoundly impacted Zhao Li. It is no exaggeration to say that her love for Ruan Jiaojiao was no less than Shu Jiao’s.
However, Shu Jiao was already ntally unstable, and she really didn’t want to further stress her. When she saw Shu Jiao suddenly calling her, she imdiately stood up and followed her into the Ruanlin family’s house.
Eight young n, along with Zhao Li, were all called into the Ruanlin family’s house, filling it completely.
The Ruanlin family already knew they would have to reveal their cards to them, so when they ca in, it wasn’t much of a surprise. In her arms was a tiny kitten that did nothing but sleep all day, and her face was filled with utmost affection.
Shu Jiao walked through the crowd and ca over, taking the kitten from her hands. The kitten, having first opened its eyes to see the Ruanlin family and Shu Jiao, albeit blurry, rembered their scent. When held by Shu Jiao, it didn’t wake but twitched its tiny head, waving its soft little paws as it stretched lazily, then tilted its head and continued to sleep soundly.
Seeing this, Shu Jiao’s gaze beca even more tender, almost to the point of tears.
The eight young guys watched this scene, feeling beyond grief and a bit at a loss for words.
Could it be that Granny and Aunt regard a cat as their sister because of her passing?
It was as if to confirm their speculation, Shu Jiao wrapped in a small blanket revealed Ruan Jiaojiao’s little body and said to them, “Look, this is your sister. She is not dead.”
“…” The eight young guys.
Sure enough, Aunt (Mom) has gone crazy, like the mother in the movie “Mother, Love Once More,” who treated a doll as her son (daughter), except their Aunt (Mom) was a bit more advanced, having caught a living creature, a kitten!
“Mom…” Seeing Shu Jiao holding and cherishing the little kitten, Ruan Jie felt an even greater pain in his heart, montarily not knowing what to say.
Ruan Chi, standing to the side, tugged at his sleeve. After Ruan Jie looked over, he imdiately gave him a look and then turned to talk to Shu Jiao, feigning surprise: “Aunt, is this true? Is this really Jiaojiao?”
“…” Shu Jiao.
Seeing this eldest nephew’s face saying “you’ve gone mad, I’m playing along with you,” she didn’t know what to say for a mont.
On the other hand, Zhao Li’s expression changed slightly. She knew more about Ruan Jiaojiao’s situation than the others, so she wasn’t completely disbelieving of this; there was a slight belief. After all, it’s impossible to go crazy in exactly the sa way, right?
Moreover, these days, both Shu Jiao and the Ruanlin family, including Ruan Jianguo, had been acting sowhat strangely.
Aside from crying at certain tis, Shu Jiao spent all her ti in the Ruanlin family’s room, and Ruan Jianguo often ca in too.
At first, she thought he was coming in to take care of the two, but now it seed that might not be the case.
“Sister-in-law, what exactly is going on?” she asked, glancing at the little kitten in her arms. Maybe because there was so awareness that this could all be true, even Zhao Li, who never particularly cared for animals, couldn’t help but feel a warmth seeing this kitten.
Shu Jiao then explained what had happened over the past few days. Having already known about the Yuan family’s situation before, with Shu Jiao’s explanation, Zhao Li imdiately believed it.
