The Kitty Became a Cutie and Was Pampered in the 80s Chapter 1995: One Kid for Ten Bones (Part 2)

"Jiaojiao!" Yu Rou, frustrated, almost let go of her hand.

Ruan Jiaojiao laughed heartily once more. As soon as they stepped outside, she stopped joking. She knew girls are sensitive about face; so jokes can be made in private, but not in front of others, especially boys, as it would make girls embarrassed.

When the two went downstairs, everyone was gathered in the living room eating waterlon. Seeing them co down, the Ruan Family warmly greeted Yu Rou, who instinctively looked toward Ruan Qun, and seeing him talking to soone else, her face flushed with redness again. Luckily, it was sumr, so being a bit flushed didn’t seem out of place, just as if she were too hot.

However, when she withdrew her gaze, she t Ruan Jiaojiao’s all-seeing eyes and couldn’t help but lower her head more.

Ruan Jiaojiao couldn’t contain her laughter, until a slice of waterlon was stuffed into her mouth.

Ruan Jiaojiao traced the slice to find Duan Xi feeding her waterlon, just about to speak when Shu Jiao from the other side said, "Xiaoxi, eat it yourself, don’t spoil her like this."

Ruan Jiaojiao puffed up her cheeks, quietly munching on the sweet waterlon.

Duan Xi said blandly, "It’s fine, I don’t like eating the middle, just the part near the rind."

"Ha-ha," Lu Zishu laughed, "So there are people like that, Duan Xi, you’re surely one of a kind."

"..." The others.

Zhao Li sighed, barely able to watch.

Ruan Lei laughed heartily, "Lu Zishu, how have you survived till now?"

"??? Lu Zishu.

This ti, not just Zhao Li, but even Lu Zhiwei couldn’t help helplessly shaking his head.

anwhile, Ruan Jiaojiao was eating the waterlon that Duan Xi peeled exclusively for her, eating half herself and stuffing the other half into his mouth. Duan Xi didn’t refuse, and after finishing a piece, whispered a word in her ear, making Ruan Jiaojiao blush, her gaze bashful, but her lips couldn’t help but curl upwards.

Already bewildered, Lu Zishu, looking down at the waterlon in his hands, inexplicably found it lacking sweetness.

The Ruan family’s villa had soone to clean, but the Lu family didn’t. After lunch at the Ruan family, besides Ruan Jiaojiao and Yu Rou being shooed upstairs for a nap, all the other boys were dragged next door to clean.

Yu Rou lay on Ruan Jiaojiao’s bed, with the electric fan beside her creaking as it turned. She couldn’t help but sigh, "Jiaojiao, the relationship between your family and the Lu family is genuinely good."

In Beidu, they thought the houses were bought together because both families had just moved there, providing mutual support; little did they know it was the sa even in their old ho.

"Yeah, before moving to the city, our houses in the town were together too. My godmother has always been reluctant to part with ," Ruan Jiaojiao said.

She knew that forming such close ties without blood relations was partly due to the two families supporting each other mutually for years, never being blinded by wealth, and partly because of Zhao Li’s broad-mindedness, pampering her to the bone. Even Lu Zishu and Lu Xian didn’t receive more affection than she did.

This is why, two years ago, when Lu Xian’s feelings were exposed, she reacted so strongly.

Because she didn’t know how heartbroken she would be if the families grew estranged due to these matters; Zhao Li’s care over the years was akin to having another mother.

She couldn’t bear the pain of losing this godmother.

"It’s evident your godmother really doted on you." Yu Rou nodded, sowhat enviously turning to pinch her cheek. "How co you’re the kind of person that makes others jealous?!"
