The Kitty Became a Cutie and Was Pampered in the 80s-Chapter 916: Trip to Beidu (1)

Seeing her like this actually made Xiu Xi smile.

At the sight of that, Ruan Jiaojiao’s tears suddenly fell, as she looked at him with a wronged expression.

"Why don’t you trust me," Xiu Xi asked, as he reached out to wipe her tears with gentle movements as if she were some kind of delicate treasure, "I’ve said if I won’t leave, then I won’t. Even if one day, someone forces us apart, all you have to do is wait for me obediently at home, I will come back."

"Really?" Ruan Jiaojiao wiped her tears with the back of her hand.

Xiu Xi nodded: "Mhm, trust me."

"Okay. I trust you," Ruan Jiaojiao nodded vigorously, wiped her tears again, then took the milk that he offered her once more and started drinking.

By the time Little Fatty rushed back from the cafeteria, Ruan Jiaojiao had already returned to normal, and even flashed him a grin. Little Fatty looked at her suspiciously and asked, "Little sis, weren’t you unhappy when you arrived?"

"Was I?" Ruan Jiaojiao pursed her lips, "You must have seen it wrong, I wasn’t."

"..." Ruan Lei, fine, he must have seen it wrong.

He stood up and made a circle in front of Ruan Jiaojiao, asking with some nervousness, "Little sis, has your brother gotten thinner?"

"You’ve lost weight, a lot of weight," Ruan Jiaojiao blatantly lied; how could one tell in just a week.

And yet, Ruan Lei actually believed it wholeheartedly, smiling until his eyes turned into thin slits.

During Monday’s class meeting, Hu Lanzhi distributed the prizes from last week’s school sports event. Ruan Jiaojiao’s team competition won second place again, and the prize was simple, just two notebooks bearing the word "Award."

But even so, she was still the person with the most prizes in the entire school, because Little Fatty, Ruan Feng, Xiu Xi, and even Lu Zishu’s prizes were all given to her.

Some people were genuinely used to this phenomenon, after all, it’s been seen for several years now, while others looked on with envy.

"Little Frog, you have so many brothers, that’s so nice. Can you spare one for me?" Yang Tao held the notebook just given by Ruan Feng, saying with an envious face.

"Sure, I’ll give you this brother," Ruan Jiaojiao generously offered Little Fatty.

"Eh..."

"No thanks."

Little Fatty and Yang Tao rejected in unison, giving each other a look before turning away, their level of tacit understanding made it seem like they had practiced it.

Ruan Jiaojiao was amused to laughter, the anxiety and melancholy that Duan Shaowei had stirred up slowly faded away completely.

In the following days.

Neither Duan Shaowei nor Nie Xiaowu came looking for her, which made Ruan Jiaojiao breathe a sigh of relief. She thought maybe they were mistaken; after all, there was no such thing in her past life.

Time flew to the end of December, and the weather became colder and colder. Ruan Jiaojiao found it increasingly difficult to get up for school, requiring Xiu Xi to coax her for a long time before she would crawl out of bed. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

And Xiaobai had already gone into the front mountain a few days ago, probably to hibernate with that big yellow Changchong.

Xiu Xi’s Math Olympiad competition is scheduled for January 10th in Beidu, so he has to get to Beidu around the 7th or 8th of January.

The means of transport to Beidu are not well developed nowadays, one has to take a two-day and one-night train ride, so round trip will take at least a week’s time.

If it wasn’t for the medal that Ruan Jiaojiao mentioned, Xiu Xi wouldn’t wish to leave this place.

Although it was Xiu Xi’s first time leaving home, Ruan Jiaojiao wasn’t very worried about it since in Beidu there were Elder Shu and Ruan Hao to take care of him; it was just that deep down she couldn’t help but feel reluctant to part.
