Chapter 428: Chapter 428 Two Mothers (5)_1

This was her only chance to get close to her daughter, and she would not give it up to anyone.

"Hahaha, alright, I’ll go fetch some water for Mom. It was so hot last night, she must have sweated a lot. I’ll wipe her down completely," she said and bustled to get a basin, leaving the ward with cheerful steps.

Shu Jiao paid her no mind, carrying the water to the bedside. She first gently washed her, then lightly wrung out the cloth, and tenderly wiped her little face with great care.

Her gaze fell on the amulet on her body and her eyes sharpened, as if thinking of something.

She was absolutely not going to let this happen a second time!

Sitting on the side and eating breakfast, he noticed her sudden sharp look and swept a thoughtful glance at her. Before she could look back, he casually averted his gaze.

Changing fate is most prone to uncontrollable factors, and could she be that factor?

Shu Jiao had wiped Jiaojiao’s face and was about to lift her clothes to wipe her body when she remembered there was a little boy in the ward. Seeing that he showed no sign of leaving, she could only ask softly, "Xiaoxi, could you please step out for a moment? Auntie needs to wipe down Jiaojiao first."

These past few days, Shu Jiao had more or less learned of Xiu Xi’s identity. She didn’t mind raising one more child. However, she didn’t know that Jiaojiao had been saved by him several times and just thought he was a child adopted by the family.

The last time, when he entered the emergency room, Jiaojiao came back to life, and Shu Jiao didn’t think much of it, just took it as a coincidence.

After all, in the lifetime she had witnessed, such a person had not appeared in the Ruan Family. Moreover, Ruan Jianguo had been too busy these past days and hadn’t had the opportunity to tell her those private matters, so as far as she was concerned, he was just a pitiable adopted child.

Xiu Xi looked at her, carried his breakfast, and silently went out.

After Wu Le had also finished wiping down Ruanlin Family’s matriarch, he came back in and, just like before, silently kept company beside Jiaojiao.

Jiaojiao had requested pork rib soup the previous night, so Shu Jiao was naturally invigorated and eager to prepare it. After cleaning Jiaojiao up, she hurried out of the hospital to buy groceries.

She had already made arrangements with the hospital’s canteen chef a few days ago to have a special stove reserved for her to cook for Jiaojiao and Ruanlin Family’s matriarch.

Thinking of her husband and Xiu Xi, who had also been staying in the hospital and eating in the canteen without having a proper meal, she bought not only what Jiaojiao would eat but also two pounds of meat, a fish, and some vegetables.

Returning to the hospital, she checked the time and started preparing immediately, worried that if she was late, Zhao Li would come again.

So, Jiaojiao’s lunch started before eleven o’clock. Watching Shu Jiao bring out the dishes one by one from the washbasin, and finally serving her a bowl of soup, Jiaojiao’s heart melted a bit more when Shu Jiao looked at her with anticipation.

Last night, she had thought over all the events again.

Those events couldn’t really be blamed on her. If there was someone to blame, Liao Zhaoji had a greater responsibility.

Thinking of this, Jiaojiao obediently accepted the meals that Shu Jiao brought to her mouth.

Beside her, Ruan Jianguo smiled and asked, "Jiaojiao, is the food your mom made delicious?"

Jiaojiao glanced at Shu Jiao, who clearly awaited an answer, and gave an honest response, "Yes, it’s delicious."

"Then how about letting your mom cook for you every day from now on, would that be okay?" Ruan Jianguo seized the opportunity to ask.
