Chapter 480: Chapter 480: A Little Girl Who Looks Like Her (2)_1

"Jiaojiao," Shu Jiao quickly took the soda bottle from her hand and handed it together with Jiaojiao to Ruan Jianguo, then wrapped her in her own embrace.

"Don’t be scared, don’t be scared, everything’s alright, Mommy’s here," she comforted her tenderly, thinking she was just frightened by the barber’s description.

The barber, regaining his senses, immediately slapped his own mouth, cursing, "Aiya, look at this stupid mouth of mine, it’s all my fault, it’s all my fault. Little girl, don’t be scared, Uncle won’t talk anymore, okay?"

Ruan Jiaojiao still nested in Shu Jiao’s arms, her complexion pale. She didn’t know if it was just her imagination.

The person that the barber described gave her a chilling feeling, as if... the person who once occupied her body had come back yet again.

Even though Xiu Xi said nothing, he was also beside her, holding her small hand, providing silent consolation.

Seeing Ruan Jiaojiao scared to such a state, the barber became increasingly regretful and didn’t dare to continue speaking, turning back to his stall.

Ruan Jiaojiao was held in Shu Jiao’s arms and gently comforted for a while, gradually calming down, her complexion slowly returning to normal. Only then did Ruan Jianguo and Shu Jiao breathe a sigh of relief.

During the haircut, the barber was very careful, avoiding Ruan Jiaojiao’s wound, and finished cutting her hair. When he removed the black cloth, he smiled and complimented, "The little girl is so pretty. It’s rare to see a haircut as good looking as this on a tomboy. You two are really blessed. Both kids are so adorable, one after another."

He mistook Xiu Xi for Ruan Jianguo and Shu Jiao’s child as well.

Upon hearing this, Shu Jiao and Ruan Jianguo did not correct him but just smiled, asked for the price, paid, and prepared to leave.

Ruan Jiaojiao suddenly asked the barber, "Uncle, you mentioned earlier that the person looked like me, do you mean in appearance? Or is it something else? Could you be more specific?"

"This..." the barber was embarrassed, casting a glance at her parents.

Ruan Jianguo, afraid to scare his daughter, wanted to stop her from asking further, but Shu Jiao held him back. With a thoughtful look, she watched Ruan Jiaojiao and did not step forward to intervene.

Seeing that they didn’t object, the barber’s eyes began to roll as he recalled, "The appearance is somewhat similar, but not exactly alike. Mainly it’s the vibe between you two, like you could be sisters, hard to describe that kind of feeling."

"Thank you, Uncle." Although she didn’t receive a precise answer, Ruan Jiaojiao still thanked him sweetly.

The barber smiled and waved his hand, watching her as Ruan Jianguo lifted her onto the tricycle, held in her mother’s arms. As he smiled and looked up, he muttered something, which made Shu Jiao laugh as well. The warmth between mother and daughter was palpable.

The barber suddenly thought he should take back his earlier words.

Actually, they didn’t look alike at all.

That girl had an eerie air; her brother lay dead beside her, yet she stood emotionless like a stump.

But this little girl in front of him was different, alive and tender, giving off a completely different feel.

He thought next time he saw them, he would definitely tell them they didn’t resemble each other in the least. It was his mistake.

Meanwhile, on the tricycle.

Shu Jiao was asking Ruan Jiaojiao, "What happened just now, Jiaojiao? Why were you scared?"

Ruan Jiaojiao pondered for a moment, not hiding her thoughts, and shared her suspicion, "I can’t clearly describe the feeling, but I think that the person Uncle Barber mentioned, is very similar to the one who once took over my body."
