Jiaojiao shrugged her shoulders, feeling particularly smug: "Can’t help it, lucky me."

Yu Rou couldn’t resist pinching her cheeks again, then turned to hug her: "Jiaojiao, thank you."

Jiaojiao turned her head and looked at her in surprise. Yu Rou said nothing, just hugged her and snuggled up.

Jiaojiao was puzzled. Seeing that she didn’t want to talk, she didn’t inquire further, and she hugged her back, slowly closing her eyes.

Feeling her breathing calm down, Yu Rou opened her eyes again and continued the unfinished words: "Thank you for being willing to continue being friends with me."

Yu Rou knew herself well. Since she was an only child from a young age, her personality was a bit spoiled, which resulted in not having many friends. Even those she had were somewhat drawn to her family background.

On top of that, after what happened with her little uncle, the relationship between the Ruan Family, Shu Family, and Jiang Family completely broke. She originally thought Jiaojiao would gradually distance herself, but over the years, not only did that not happen, Jiaojiao introduced her to more friends. Her family treated her sincerely without letting her uncle’s situation influence their relationship, and even Shu Jiao was very kind to her.

This time, she returned with the Ruan Family, and everyone treated her just as well as they treated Jiaojiao.

Perhaps Jiaojiao herself is unaware of how much her possessions make others envious, but it is precisely her sincerity towards her friends that makes it impossible for her to feel jealousy.

She was very fortunate to be friends with her.

Yu Rou originally wanted to sleep next to Jiaojiao. Jiaojiao’s body was naturally cold, even in summer; her skin felt icy cool, especially since it was good skin, smooth and cool, making it very comfortable to hug.

But unfortunately, not long after Jiaojiao closed her eyes, Duan Xi opened the door and stood there, looking at her with a light gaze.

Yu Rou felt chills through her whole body under his gaze, so she carefully climbed out of bed and returned to the guest room prepared for her by the Ruan Family.

Jiaojiao didn’t expect to wake up from her nap to find someone else by her side.

Duan Xi was sleeping beside her, eyes closed, seemingly asleep.

Jiaojiao turned her head to look at him, somewhat surprised by how a guy could have such great skin. And those eyelashes, how could they be longer and curlier than hers? Really makes one envious.

Jiaojiao pursed her small lips, couldn’t help reaching out to play with his doll-like eyelashes.

Duan Xi’s eyelashes were long, black, and particularly curly, like little brushes. Jiaojiao cautiously used her index finger to brush them once, and seeing he didn’t wake up, she couldn’t help but brush them again. Watching his lashes quiver unconsciously, afraid he’d wake up, she quickly shifted her gaze downward, then focused on his nose.

She reached out, bending her index finger to mimic what he’d done to her before, brushing his nose, her gaze inevitably falling onto his lips.

Duan Xi had a perfect M-shaped lip, in a faint pink color.

Such lip shapes always look like they are naturally smiling. Whether male or female, they look particularly attractive, even in a natural state, they are uplifted into a smile; these lips seem very enticing. However, Duan Xi naturally doesn’t like to smile; his strong aura makes people overlook his lip shape.

But now, as he slept, the usual forbidding aura seemed to vanish, making Jiaojiao inexplicably feel as if his lips were tempting her to kiss them.
