Chapter 1303: Chapter 1303: The Beloved Cat’s Life (Part 5)
"..." Jiaojiao.
Looking at the meek and useless lump of meat... eh, with those green eyes, it surely is a wolf.
Just how absent-minded was she before, to end up raising such a lump of meat wolf?
Or was it because Xiu Xi gave it to her, so she reluctantly accepted it?
"Jiaojiao, do you want to go down and play with it a bit?"
"Meow meow meow meow meow..." No no no no no...
Jiaojiao almost shook her little head off, seeing this lump of meat wolf whose paw was bigger than she was, looking silly and almost drooling, it really wasn’t her type; she didn’t want to play with him.
"Alright then." Jiaojiao’s resistance was quite obvious, so the Ruanlin Family had to give up, tidying up while holding her and occasionally chatting with her.
The lump of meat wolf, feeling rejected, could only follow in and out, looking pitiful.
Seeing that the Ruanlin Family was inconvenienced while holding her, Jiaojiao pointed at the cooking apron in front of her. It had a little pocket in front; it looked like it could fit her.
Though they couldn’t communicate with words, the grandparent-grandchild pair shared a great understanding; Jiaojiao merely pointed, and the Ruanlin Family understood her meaning, smiling as she put her into the pocket, making it much easier to work.
Meanwhile, Ruan Hao went out shortly after Xiu Xi left; the two hadn’t exchanged any greetings but unexpectedly ran into each other at the same place.
That place was the current abode of the Master.
The Master resided in a guesthouse. Ruan Hao found his way there with the help of the guesthouse staff and saw Xiu Xi coming out.
The two of them probably hadn’t expected to meet there at all, and both froze for a moment.
Even though Xiu Xi had been staying with the Ruan Family for six years, Ruan Hao wasn’t very involved with him; their communication bridge was always Jiaojiao, so Ruan Hao’s impression of him was merely his sister’s playmate.
Now that the two met here, the implication was clear without words.
Neither spoke as they looked at each other, and the Master inside seemed to sense it, opening the door to look out.
Upon seeing Ruan Hao, he was quite impressed because of his aura of exceptional fortune and destiny; he looked over at Ruan Hao, then at the other equally or even more promising young man beside him, and shook his head helplessly, saying, "Why must you do this? When will the cycle of revenge end?"
Although everything in the world emphasizes cause and effect, the Master truly didn’t hope they would deplete their fortune just to trouble another departed life, which he saw as unwise.
Upon hearing this, Ruan Hao withdrew his gaze from Xiu Xi, with a half-smile, maintaining his gentle and noble demeanor, but his words carried a chilling undertone, "Master, in my Ruan Family, we uphold that not avenging enmity doesn’t make one a gentleman."
The Master seemed to sigh and finally opened the door fully...
Ruan Jie woke up at about ten in the morning, the first sound sleep he had since coming back; during the days when Jiaojiao got into trouble, no one at home really had a good night’s sleep.
After getting up, he felt much more refreshed. Thinking of how Jiaojiao resented him so, he earnestly cleaned himself up in the bathroom, took a shower, shaved, and finally applied some mousse onto his a few centimeters long buzz cut before putting on what he considered his most handsome outfit before coming out.
But he clearly slept a bit late because there were already seven other boys sitting in the Ruan Family living room.
