Chapter 1346: Chapter 1346: Engagement Banquet (Part 5)
Especially Xiu Xi, he nodded vigorously, emphasizing his stance.
“!!!” Jiaojiao.
Dang it, are you guys blind or am I blind!
She then turned her gaze to Ruan Hao, who hadn’t spoken. She couldn’t believe her big brother was also blind to such aesthetics.
Then it proved once again that when it came to Jiaojiao, Ruan Family men were all aesthetically challenged, considering Ruan Chi once thought Jiaojiao’s red and green looked great together.
“Looks good, Jiaojiao looks good in anything.” Ruan Hao said in a gentle tone, a voice so deceptive it almost made people believe that outfit was really good.
So… in the end, Jiaojiao actually wore that outfit to the engagement party!
The engagement party was held in a big hotel in the city center. Qin Qiong valued this engagement party very much, arriving early at the Shu Family’s place, bringing along several brothers from the family who were of similar age to personally escort the Shu Family and the Ruan Family.
Shu Jiao wore a Qipao, and Jiaojiao was afraid she might accidentally snag the Qipao, so Xiu Xi carried her the whole way.
Ruan Jianguo and Ruanlin Family’s Shu Jiao sat in the backseat, with Jianguo holding a silk scarf, constantly trying to drape it over Shu Jiao’s shoulders, mumbling all the while, “Sweetheart, it’s too cold in the morning, you better wear this scarf.”
Shu Jiao’s Qipao was sleeveless, with a teardrop design at the chest. It wasn’t really revealing, but Ruan Jianguo felt uncomfortable seeing her fair skin exposed. From the moment they left the Shu Family’s house, he kept trying to drape a dark green silk scarf over her to cover up that skin.
At first, Shu Jiao could persuade him softly, but eventually, she got annoyed and said coldly, “Ruan Jianguo, if you keep this up, you’ll have to get out of the car!”
“I… I’m just worried you’ll get cold…” Jianguo said, feeling wronged.
Seeing that Shu Jiao’s expression was truly unhappy, he could only crumple the scarf into a ball. He planned to stuff it into his suit pocket, but after catching an unsatisfied look from Shu Jiao, he silently took it back out and put it in the bag beside him that was for Jiaojiao’s goat milk.
In the front, Jiaojiao witnessed the whole scene, and silently lit a candle for her dad.
The journey took a while, the car drove for over an hour before reaching the hotel.
In front, Qin Qiong’s car had already stopped. As they got out of the car, two figures at the hotel entrance immediately came to greet them.
When Jiaojiao was carried out by Xiu Xi, Qin Qiong was already leading those two figures toward them.
“Mom and Dad, let me introduce you. This is Xiaowen’s sister, Shu Jiao, and this is Sister Shu Jiao’s husband, Ruan Jianguo, and this is Aunt Ruan.”
Qin Qiong valued Shu Wen, and subsequently cared deeply for the Ruan Family, introducing them very solemnly.
Qin Qiong was an only child. His parents were not very old, and both had military backgrounds, so even Qin Qiong’s mother was valiant and heroic, with a straightforward and capable personality.
The couple greeted the Ruan Family with smiles. Seeing Xiu Xi carrying a cat over, they weren’t taken aback but warmly welcomed them inside.
Old Master Shu was surrounded at the front, with Jiaojiao being carried by Xiu Xi following on the side. As soon as they entered, they could feel the all-around gazes directed at them, one of which was particularly burning.
At that moment, Jiaojiao’s instincts were sharp, and she immediately looked over.
