Chapter 955: Chapter 955: Only I Can Guard It (2)

“Brother Xiu, have you had dinner?” Seeing Xiu Xi looking ragged, Ruan Jiaojiao’s heart ached terribly. She turned her head and asked the Ruanlin Family, “Grandma, is there hot water?”

“Yes, yes, yes.” The elder lady of the Ruanlin Family clapped her hands and hurried to heat up so water.

Ruan Jianguo and Lu Zhiwei were originally drinking, but now they stopped and quickly served Xiu Xi a big bowl of rice. Ruan Jiaojiao dragged him to the dining table to eat.

Xiu Xi must not have eaten for several days; as soon as Ruan Jianguo put the rice in his hands, he started devouring it hungrily.

The other young n around looked at each other in bewildernt.

They only knew that Xiu Xi went to Beidu to participate in a competition, but he did not return with them, seeming to have been delayed by sothing, and they knew nothing else.

But now it seed that things were not so simple.

When Ruan Jiaojiao was at ho, she was always taken care of; now she sat eagerly by his side, continuously dishing out food for him. Seeing him eat in haste, she softly told him to slow down.

Perhaps it was because a bowl of rice had settled in his stomach, Xiu Xi’s pace of eating had slowed down a bit.

After finishing the al, a pot of water had been boiled by the Ruanlin Family, but it was not good to take a shower imdiately after eating. The elder lady wanted Xiu Xi to warm up by the fire in the living room first, but Xiu Xi, taking Ruan Jiaojiao with him, went upstairs.

Whether by tacit understanding or not, everyone watched but did not follow them up; even Shu Jiao just watched silently.

Lu Xian was toying with a playing card in his hand, rubbing it lightly as he watched the adult and child go upstairs, deep in thought.

In the Ruan Family, everyone had long accepted the intimacy between Xiu Xi and Ruan Jiaojiao. Sotis they found it strange, as it was clear that they were Ruan Jiaojiao’s blood relatives, yet Ruan Jiaojiao was much more intimate with Xiu Xi as if they were one person, even though before she was six years old, she hardly had any connection with him.

“Brother Xiu, you should change out of your dirty clothes first, don’t catch a cold or get a fever,” Ruan Jiaojiao said in a low voice after entering Xiu Xi’s room.

Xiu Xi followed her and closed the door behind him. The dog outside did not co in, but instead lay down sensibly at the doorway, as though standing guard for the two people inside.

Xiu Xi did not respond, just stared at her wounded little hand.

Ruan Jiaojiao knew she could not hide it any longer and could only explain softly, “This… I cut it a few days ago on a milk bottle, the wound was a bit deep, but it’s okay now, it’s already been stitched up, Uncle Yuan said the wound is healing nicely, and the dressing will be removed soon.”

Xiu Xi was still silent, still staring at her hand.

The hostility in his whole body was almost undeniable.

Ruan Jiaojiao felt even more uneasy, not because she was afraid of Xiu Xi, but because she knew that whenever she got hurt, he would bla himself. Yet how could she bla him for such a thing?

Although she also felt that it was bizarrely unlucky.

“I’m sorry,” Xiu Xi finally said after a long while.

He should’ve realized sooner that the Ruan Family couldn’t protect her.

“It will not happen again in the future. We will never be apart again,” he said, staring into her eyes, as if taking an oath.

Ruan Jiaojiao nodded. She had always believed him.

Her small hand reached out to hold his, and he clasped it tightly in return.

“Brother Xiu, have you settled matters with the Duan Family? Will they co looking for you again?”

Ruan Jiaojiao felt that this issue was ultimately a bit troubleso, although she did not know where this Duan Family had co from.
