Chapter 1306: Chapter 1306: The Beloved Cat’s Life (Part 8)
Shu Jiao heard this and explained with difficulty, “Xiaona, Jiaojiao was taken to Beidu by her uncle today. When she gets better, I’ll definitely let you see her, okay?”
Yang Xiaona bit her lip. Although she was a little disappointed, she still nodded.
“Alright, girls shouldn’t cry. If you cry too much, you won’t be pretty anymore. Auntie sees you’ve lost a lot of weight. You must take good care of yourself. Auntie is counting on you to continue helping me take care of Jiaojiao.”
“Okay, Auntie, don’t worry. I will definitely take good care of Jiaojiao in the future.” Yang Xiaona nodded quickly, then looked at her, still a little unsure: “Auntie, you’re not lying to me, are you?”
“No, really no, you know how much Auntie loves Jiaojiao. If she really had any issues, do you think Auntie could still come to class?”
Upon hearing this, Yang Xiaona was completely assured. Indeed, she had seen how much Shu Jiao loved Ruan Jiaojiao.
“Alright, Xiaona, class is starting soon. Hurry down and attend class. Study hard and take good care of yourself, okay?”
“Mmhmm.” Yang Xiaona nodded solemnly and finally walked away, looking back every few steps.
After she left, within seconds the class bell rang. Shu Jiao adjusted her mood and returned to the office to prepare for the next class.
As soon as this class ended, Shu Jiao was met with the same inquiries from Yang Tao.
Shu Jiao explained with the same reason, and only then did the young girl leave assured, though with red eyes.
Shu Jiao didn’t stay at school too long. When the last class in the morning was over, Ruan Jianguo, who went to drop off Shu Lang, came to pick her up. As they passed by the playground, where the teaching building was halfway under construction, Shu Jiao pinched the bridge of her nose and said, “Let’s continue the construction from tomorrow. Whenever you have time, take a look at what’s still needed at school, and we’ll donate some more.”
Shu Jiao wasn’t very concerned about money before, and with Ruan Jiaojiao’s situation now, even less so.
She only hoped this money could accumulate more blessings for her daughter.
“Okay.” Ruan Jianguo nodded, seeing her pinching her nose or rubbing her temples, feeling a bit distressed and said, “You’ve exhausted yourself these past few days. You should rest well at home today.”
“It’s okay, I can still hold on.” Shu Jiao said flatly, she glanced ahead, then closed her eyes: “Call me when we get home. I’ll take a nap.”
Even though Ruan Jiaojiao is now fully cared for by Xiu Xi, and he mostly feeds her milk at night, Shu Jiao still gets up twice in the night to check. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be assured. She can only rest after truly seeing her daughter is alright.
Ruan Jianguo replied gently, and the journey became much slower and smoother, stretching a few minutes’ drive into nearly twenty.
When they arrived home, smelling the aroma of dinner from inside, he called her to wake up.
These days, Shu Jiao has truly been exhausted, lacking a good sleep. When Ruan Jianguo woke her, she was still a bit dazed, her confused look making Ruan Jianguo feel particularly heartbroken.
He got out of the car, ran to the passenger side, opened the door, and gently asked, “Honey, shall I carry you inside?”
“??? Shu Jiao.”
Still not quite awake, she looked at him confusedly. Seeing her like this, Ruan Jianguo’s heartache made him decide to carry her out of the car.
As soon as Shu Jiao was carried out, her clarity gradually returned. Just as she was about to ask what kind of nonsense he was up to, she lifted her head and met the gaze of Ruan Hao and Xiu Xi returning together.
