Chapter 290: Chapter 290: Heart Disease (7)_1 Chapter 290: Chapter 290: Heart Disease (7)_1 This comfort and indulgence seed to be etched into his soul, that whenever he saw her wronged, he would instinctively comfort her, with no thought for anything else.
“Brother Chi!” Ruan Jiaojiao had been pretending at first, but upon seeing Ruan Chi like this, she couldn’t hold back anymore. Her eyes stung and tears poured out as she cried, embracing Ruan Chi, “Brother, you scared to death!”
“Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid, brother will protect Jiaojiao, do not be afraid.” Ruan Chi also held her, comforting her with unbearable heartache.
The matriarch of the Ruan Family’s eyes reddened, and she turned away her gaze.
The other mbers of the Ruan Family too had their eyes turn red, feeling a sour and bitter ache in their hearts.
Especially Ruan Jiandang, who had turned pale.
He just realized that he, as a father, was always failing. When Liao Zhaoji was there, he left them all to her, never inquiring about their lives, not noticing whether they were faring well, thinking that bringing ho money was good enough.
Later, after Liao Zhaoji left, he dumped them on his elderly mother, still feeling every day that his life was harsh, and not what he desired, yet still, he did not pay attention to the children.
Even after so long since the divorce, he had never sat down to talk with the children, to ask what they were thinking…
Thinking of this, Ruan Jiandang crouched down, covering his face as tears gushed like a fountain.
In the presence of the Ruan family mbers, he couldn’t stop sobbing.
He didn’t know how he had beco like this!
Watching Ruan Jiandang crouched on the ground, almost howling with tears, the matriarch of the Ruan Family wiped her eyes, then signaled the other three sons with her gaze before leading the still-crying Ruan Jiaojiao and Ruan Chi into the inner room.
Wu Le and Du Qing, seeing this, also took their children and went back to their rooms.
In less than a minute, only the four brothers remained in the large room.
Inside, the matriarch of the Ruan Family looked around but couldn’t find dicine for Ruan Chi, so she had to co out again and ask which of the boys would be willing to go to the village end and call Doctor Lu over.
Little Fatty and Ruan Jie responded at the sa ti, and the matriarch of the Ruan Family let them go.
Ruan Jun stood behind, watching the matriarch of the Ruan Family enter the room, his fist clenched tightly at his side, and then he turned and exited through the kitchen back door.
In the inner room, the matriarch of the Ruan Family first helped Ruan Chi clean around the wound with a towel, and as she saw him inhaling sharply from ti to ti, she spoke with a mix of worry and frustration, “You know it hurts now? Weren’t you acting tough just before?”
Ruan Chi pressed his lips tightly together, not saying a word.
His gaze fell on the other side, where Xiu Xi was wiping Ruan Jiaojiao’s tears, Little Fatty circling around her legs, occasionally pushing up his upper body to take a look, anxious as could be.
Ruan Jiaojiao, whenever she cried bitterly, would beco a bit dazed, and listless.
Now, leaning against Xiu Xi with little energy, she let him wipe her face, her eyes fixed on the matriarch of the Ruan Family as she wiped blood from Ruan Chi, standing still in place, sighing deeply.
She stood to embrace Ruan Jiaojiao, then said to Ruan Chi, “Xiaowu, take a look at your sister.”
Ruan Chi looked at Ruan Jiaojiao, his gaze filled with guilt.
He didn’t know why he had acted that way, in that mont, he had almost lost control of himself.
“Brother,” Ruan Jiaojiao reached out her hand.
Ruan Chi imdiately grasped it, “I’m sorry, brother didn’t an to.”
“Brother, don’t be like that in the future, Jiaojiao is really scared.” Tears flowed from Ruan Jiaojiao’s eyes once more, as Ruan Chi’s recent actions brought back mories of that nightmare, mories of how everyone in the Ruan Family died, her heart twisting in pain.
