The Kitty Became a Cutie and Was Pampered in the 80s Chapter 1712: Engagement (Part 9)

Under their questioning, I unconsciously recounted everything that had happened at school these past few days.

"So, you confird your relationship yesterday? And you’re getting engaged today?" Ruan Lei’s mouth twitched, struggling to control his expression.

Ruan Jiaojiao nodded, sowhat dazed. It seed to be the case given the current situation.

"You... you really are! Don’t you know how to be a bit more reserved?!" Ruan Lei was so furious he was about to curse. Although he knew Duan Xi and Ruan Jiaojiao being together was only a matter of ti, he never expected it to happen so quickly. Especially since they had only been apart for half a month, and she already threw herself out there.

"Brother Lei, are you saying I’m shaless?" One after another, they all said she wasn’t reserved, and Ruan Jiaojiao couldn’t help but feel a bit wronged. If she were reserved, who would be responsible if Brother Xi was snatched away?

"No, of course not." Ruan Lei hurriedly denied it, but was full of unspeakable bitterness, feeling quite stifled.

Seeing Duan Xi co down from the other side, Ruan Jiaojiao’s gaze imdiately shifted over, making Ruan Lei even more frustrated, giving Duan Xi a harsh glare. He thought it was all his fault; if he hadn’t flirted with female classmates to get a confession, his obedient sister wouldn’t have been forced into making such a bold move.

But his glaring was naturally ignored by Duan Xi, who sat down beside Ruan Jiaojiao. Ruan Jiaojiao couldn’t help but ask him in a small voice, "Brother Xi, how co we’re getting engaged?"

Ruan Jiaojiao was still confused, not understanding how it ca to this, and no one in the family had said a word to her.

Seeing Ruan Jiaojiao frown, her expression not seeming happy, Duan Xi felt a tightness in his chest, the red on the tips of his ears slowly fading: "You don’t like it?"

Ruan Jiaojiao pouted, "Of course not, just a bit surprised." It felt like a dream; in just two days, their relationship had made a qualitative leap. She even suspected that if she weren’t still a minor, would they be going to get their marriage certificates tomorrow?

"Not surprising. Once we’re engaged, no one can separate us," Duan Xi said.

Ruan Jiaojiao grinned. True, although it was fast and felt a bit unreal, engagent was like announcing to everyone that from now on, her Brother Xi was labeled as hers, and no one could take him away.

Instantly, Ruan Jiaojiao was filled with joy again.

Ruan Lei felt like he couldn’t bear to watch!

But what could he do when he couldn’t beat Duan Xi? He could only place his hopes on other siblings, like his brother who was studying at a military academy!

Of course, at this ti, he didn’t know that the origin of all this ca from his brother in the military academy. If he hadn’t blurted out and asked Ruan Jianguo for advice, Ruan Jianguo wouldn’t have announced it so boldly, and none of this would have followed.

Zhao Li knew that Ruan Jiaojiao was returning from school today. She had originally planned to stay at her parents for two days to take care of them, but she missed Ruan Jiaojiao too much. She couldn’t wait any longer and rushed back by evening.

Upon learning that Ruan Jiaojiao was getting engaged to Duan Xi, she wasn’t surprised at all, even quite delighted: "That’s wonderful, Xiaoxi grew up with us, and no one is more trustworthy than him."

Then Shu Jiao and Ruan Hao also returned. Since there were many people, they didn’t have dinner at ho that night but went to the Ruan Family hotel for it.
