Chapter 37: Chapter 37 The Minor Villain (5)_1 Chapter 37: Chapter 37 The Minor Villain (5)_1 She was feeling a bit itchy to go into the mountains to get so food, but she was worried about how to explain it to the Ruan Family. Caught in her dilemma, she saw the little antagonist walking out with… a mouse!
Damn!
Ruan Jiaojiao couldn’t help but roll her eyes at Xiaobai. How much did this little antagonist like to eat mice? Why did she see him eating mice every ti?
After reflecting, she realized that the little antagonist was so young and powerless, and his family didn’t provide him with food, so he could only resort to catching mice to eat. Otherwise, he might truly starve to death.
Ruan Jiaojiao actually wanted to give him so quail to eat like the last ti, but rembering what he had said before, she had to drop the idea. Otherwise, it would raise suspicion in the little antagonist, which would not be good.
The little antagonist saw Ruan Jiaojiao as well.
His gaze was as intense as ever, as if every ti he saw her, he was so focused that it seed like he wanted to penetrate her soul!
As an outsider soul occupying another body, Ruan Jiaojiao felt really guilty. She licked her lips and greeted the little antagonist awkwardly but politely, then scurried away before getting a response, waving her little paws hurriedly.
As she ran, she pricked up her little ears to listen for any movent behind her.
Feeling that he didn’t chase after her, she breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the little antagonist was really scary.
Ruan Jianguo was turning over the soil. He planned to travel north in the latter half of the year to look for Shu Jiao. With no inco at ho and having left his factory job in the town, where he earned over thirty yuan a month, especially after Ruan Jiaojiao fell ill, he quit his job to stay by her side, fearing the slightest mishap.
Many people in the team called him foolish. Shu Jiao clearly didn’t seem like an ordinary person, even when she was a sent-down youth, she had lived better than most, indicating a quite wealthy family background. Now that she could return for the college entrance exam, it was evident she didn’t plan to co back.
Ruan Jianguo was just a countryman, a farr who spent his life tilling the land. How could Shu Jiao spend her life in such a small village for his sake? It was clear she wanted to escape this place.
Yet he was foolishly unaware, not only had he lost his wife, but he also lost a good job. Where could he find a job now that paid over thirty yuan a month? Many people couldn’t get such work even with connections, and he actually let it go! Wasn’t that sheer folly?
Ruan Jianguo was aware of how others saw him, but he didn’t care. Having been with Shu Jiao for over a decade, with even their oldest son, Ruan Hao, being fifteen years old, he believed he understood her true nature. She would never abandon her husband and children. If she had been gone this long without any news, sothing must have happened, and he had to find her and bring her back.
All he wanted now was to farm diligently, so he could grow enough food for the second half of the year. Then he could set out with peace of mind.
As he worked energetically, he spotted his tender, bouncy little daughter running over. His expression imdiately softened. Dropping his hoe, and fearful of getting mud on her, he rubbed his hands on so grass and then, with a smile, stepped forward, swept her up in his arms, tossed her up into the air, and caught her securely.
“Daddy!” Ruan Jiaojiao hadn’t expected that from him. Startled, her fur stood on end, but once back in his arms, she felt excited and giggled, clutching his neck and cooing.
“Hey, my good treasure, what are you doing here? It’s so hot outside, what if you get overheated?”
Ruan Jiaojiao had many nicknas in the Ruan Family— good treasure, baby, Jiaojiao, Nannan…
