Chapter 1353: Chapter 1353: Midnight Soul Departure (Part 2)
In addition, since he hadn’t started a family, to avoid awkwardness, he didn’t agree with him coming to the Qin Family’s engagement party this time. They expressed that it was enough for the Jiang Family’s elder brother to be present.
When they initially discussed this with him, he didn’t express any objections. They thought he had understood or let it go, but who knew he would suddenly cause such a scene.
The Jiang Family’s elder brother was getting angrier the more he thought about it. Turning someone else’s engagement party into such a mess, isn’t this making enemies?
When he recalled the look the Ruan Family gave them just before leaving, the Jiang Family’s elder brother was infuriated, but he had to first solve the current situation with the Shu and Qin families despite his anger.
While the Jiang Family’s elder brother was dealing with the matters at hand, Jiang Xun didn’t linger around. Instead, he frowned as he followed the Ruan Family members.
He found it very strange how the Ruan Family and Xiu Xi valued a kitten so importantly.
He had only seen this level of concern in one other person, back when Ruan Jiaojiao was knocked into the river by Wa Yiting, the Ruan Family had reacted similarly.
So what special capability did this cat possess to make them care so much?
Most importantly, Xiu Xi, who was always inseparable from Ruan Jiaojiao—why wasn’t he at home with her when she was sick? Instead, he was cradling a cat like it was a treasure?
Jiang Xun followed the Ruan Family towards the hall, wanting to figure out what was going on. But when he reached the door of the private room, his view was blocked.
Mu Tan had already instructed the hotel staff to bring clean towels. The Ruan Family members were heartsick, almost bleeding, but they didn’t dare to show it too much until Mu Tan left, then they showed it.
"Jiaojiao? Jiaojiao? Talk to Mommy." Shu Jiao looked at Xiu Xi holding the wet and limp Ruan Jiaojiao in his arms, and she was almost scared to death.
"Meow." Mommy, I’m okay.
Ruan Jiaojiao shivered, not from the cold, but from fright.
"How did it end up like this?!" Old Master Shu’s face didn’t look good at all, and he was really distressed seeing Ruan Jiaojiao soaking wet.
"Meow gah!" That bad person did it!
Hearing this, Ruan Jiaojiao got even more spirited. Her fur was already wet, and now she was so mad it bristled, turning her into a little hedgehog.
"Meow gah!" Dad, go push him into the lake too, let him drown for a bit!
It was so infuriating, lying there holding such a big cat, can’t he see? Is he blind?
He wouldn’t even let Auntie jump down to save her. What’s this, a cat’s life doesn’t count?
Ruan Jiaojiao was furious, waving her little claws to send Ruan Jianguo to take vengeance for her.
"There will be revenge." Looking at the indignant little kitten, Xiu Xi coaxed softly, gently wiping her fur with a towel: "Is there anywhere else that feels uncomfortable now?"
Uncomfortable?
Ruan Jiaojiao thought for a moment and pointed at her little belly: "Meow." Does a full belly count?
She had choked on water until she was full.
Xiu Xi gently patted her little head, bending down to kiss her forehead, his hands still trembling as he held her.
All his fears were centered on her, and they intensified with every incident.
He even considered, if it were possible, he would devour her whole to put her inside his belly! That way, he wouldn’t have to endure such fears of losing her.
When Xiu Xi kissed Ruan Jiaojiao, Ruan Jiaojiao tensed up, remembering the moment she woke up. Wasn’t Xiu Xi brother kissing her then too?
