Chapter 867: Chapter 867: The Young Master of a Wealthy Family (3)
Ruan Jiaojiao woke up halfway upon hearing the words and struggled to sit up: “Grandma Yuan? Why has she co?” As she spoke, she started to get dressed, while asking: “Is Brother Xiu up yet, has Brother Xiu gotten up?”
“He’s up, now downstairs,” the Ruanlin Family said, helping her with her sleeves.
With Xiu Xi at ho, Ruan Jiaojiao felt relieved.
Ever since Zhao Li’s birthday, Ruan Jiaojiao hadn’t visited the Yuan Family. Even if the Yuan Family’s driver ca to invite them, the Ruanlin Family would always find excuses to turn them down, possibly due to the frequency of these refusals, the Yuan Family’s matriarch noticed the Ruan Family’s attitude. After that, they didn’t extend further invitations, not even a gesture for Ruan Jiaojiao’s birthday.
The Ruan Family originally thought there would be no more contact in the future, but now she had unexpectedly co over.
Perhaps noticing that she didn’t visit the Yuan Family anymore, she took the initiative to co to the Ruan Family.
Actually, Ruan Jiaojiao didn’t really have any bad feelings towards the Yuan Family; in her eyes, the Yuan Family’s matriarch was just a lonely old lady. She hoped for company, and Ruan Jiaojiao would keep her company, after all, she had once helped their family.
But Shu Jiao and Xiu Xi did not want her to get close to them, and compared to them, she naturally preferred her own mother and Xiu Xi.
Now that the person had co to their ho, she could only receive her.
Still, sotis Ruan Jiaojiao felt curious as to why the Yuan Family’s matriarch liked her so much. Although Zhao Li also recognized her as a goddaughter later and initially was also fond of her, Ruan Jiaojiao felt these two were different in her heart.
Initially, Zhao Li might have just liked her, and it was only liking. She wanted a daughter, and Ruan Jiaojiao happened to satisfy her fantasy of having a daughter, so she was very fond of her from the start.
This affection was one-sided, just as if Wa Yiting were in her position, she could have received the sa affection.
But over the three years, Ruan Jiaojiao felt that they truly developed a mother-daughter relationship. Even if Wa Yiting were to return, she couldn’t wedge herself between her and Zhao Li.
Moreover, the relationship between the Lu Family and the Ruan Family was genuinely good.
Her father and her godfather got along like brothers; Lu Xian and her second brother were very close too, even Lu Zishu and Ruan Lei’s relationship was sothing others would envy.
But the Yuan Family was different.
Apart from her previous monthly visits to the Yuan Family to keep company with Grandma Yuan, and so necessary reciprocations of favors, the Ruan Family and the Yuan Family really had no other interactions.
If it was soone else, feeling the Ruan Family’s distant attitude at this ti would definitely an no further attempts to approach. Let alone soone from the Yuan Family, with their status, who always had others seeking their favor. They wouldn’t possibly stoop to court soone else’s cold shoulder.
So, Ruan Jiaojiao was truly puzzled about this; even if she didn’t know what Xiu Xi and Shu Jiao were avoiding, every ti she saw Grandma Yuan, she couldn’t help but wonder in her heart.
When Ruan Jiaojiao ca downstairs after getting ready, it was ten minutes later.
Grandma Yuan was talking with the Ruanlin Family, and there was a gift box on the table in the main room that looked like a small cake. Liu Ma, standing next to Grandma Yuan, saw her coming down and imdiately exclaid with surprise: “Miss, you’ve co down.” As she spoke, she leaned down to remind Grandma Yuan in front of her: “Madam, look who’s here.”
Hearing the sound, Grandma Yuan looked over, and Ruan Jiaojiao imdiately greeted her with a smile: “Grandma Yuan.”
Miss?
Seeing Ruan Jiaojiao co down, the Ruanlin Family, who imdiately went inside to prepare milk for Ruan Jiaojiao, frowned and looked back at Liu Ma.
