Chapter 1297: Chapter 1297: The Forgotten Eighth Kid (9)
“Does it hurt?” Ruan Hao gently stroked her small back, but his eyes coldly scanned Ruan Jie and Ruan Lei.
The two brothers knew they were in the wrong and immediately shrank their necks.
Meanwhile, Lu Xian and Lu Zishu in the living room were bewildered as they looked at the nine brothers.
To be honest, the two brothers had basically grown up together with the nine brothers.
Lu Xian had the best relationship with Ruan Jie and knew Ruan Hao quite well.
This man was as graceful in appearance as he was cold-hearted. The only person he’d ever truly been gentle towards was probably Ruan Jiaojiao.
He truly cherished her as if afraid she’d break in his hand, or spoil in his mouth, doting on her endlessly.
But such a person, when Ruan Jiaojiao was seriously ill, didn’t seem saddened or worried, and instead was pampering a small kitten?
The others also showed no concern and didn’t behave as if they were mentally unwell.
Adding to the phrase Ruan Jie had accidentally uttered, Lu Xian’s gaze grew deep.
As for Lu Zishu, he looked at the Ruan Family members incredulously: “Are you guys okay?” Have you really gone insane?
After the doctor visited yesterday, rumors spread nearby that the Ruan Family was so overwhelmed with grief they might have gone mad.
The Ruan Family seemed to have heard a bit but didn’t pay much attention.
Lu Xian and Lu Zishu came over today out of concern.
Lu Zhiwei, sitting on the other side and originally chatting with Shu Lang, noticed the unusual emotional state of the Ruan family, and stared over in surprise.
Especially since these past few days, he had seen Ruan Jianguo foolishly grinning several times, genuinely worried, even considering whether to help invite a psychologist to properly counsel their family.
Now, hearing this, he felt even more certain that the Ruan Family had indeed gone mad.
“You’re the one who’s insane!” Ruan Lei raised his hand and gave Lu Zishu a smack.
When he turned to Ruan Jiaojiao, he tried to curry favor, insisting he didn’t do it on purpose, he just found her too adorable.
Once Ruan Jiaojiao was in Ruan Hao’s arms, she quieted down, curiously opening her eyes to look at Lu Xian and the others.
She remembered Zhao Li as her godmother, but these people seemed to be her godmother’s family?
Could they be people she had also forgotten?
Ruan Jiaojiao lifted her head, looking to Ruan Hao for help. Ruan Hao gently patted her chin, soothing her softly, showing no intention of explaining to the Lu family, as he called towards the kitchen: “Ruanlin, Jiaojiao needs her milk.”
“Coming, coming,” Zhao Li came out, cheerfully holding a small bottle, handing it to him, “The temperature is just right.”
“Meow.” Godmother.
Ruan Jiaojiao waved her little paw at her.
“Eh, is Jiaojiao calling me?” Zhao Li asked, fondly stroking Ruan Jiaojiao’s small head.
“Meow meow.” Ruan Jiaojiao nodded adorably.
“!!!” The three Lu family members who witnessed everything.
Especially Lu Zishu, he jumped straight up from the sofa, running over to Zhao Li, holding onto her: “Mom, why are you like this too?!”
Lu Zishu was about to burst into tears, thinking how terrible it was that one after another, they’d all seemingly lost their minds.
Zhao Li’s response was to lightly glance at him, then return to the kitchen to continue helping.
Lu Xian, being much more astute than his brother, upon seeing this, turned to Ruan Jie and asked, “What’s really going on here?”
