Chapter 496: Chapter 496: Unmatched by Anyone (7)_1

Ruan Jiaojiao lay comfortably on top, with watermelon and apple slices that Shu Jiao had cut for her on a plate beside her. She would read a little comic book and then eat a piece of fruit, the coziness beyond words.

Ruan Jie also sat on one side, holding a comic book in his hand too, but his gaze was fixed on Xiaobai lying under Ruan Jiaojiao.

Xiaobai was quite friendly towards Ruan Jiaojiao’s relatives; even if this unworldly human child kept poking it here and there, it simply turned a blind eye and didn’t hold a grudge.

"Jiaojiao, feeling good?" Ruan Jie asked, coaxingly stuffing a piece of watermelon into her mouth.

"Yep, feeling good," Ruan Jiaojiao replied, her little feet kicking playfully, "Brother, do you want to sit too?"

"Can I?" Ruan Jie’s eyes lit up instantly.

Ruan Jiaojiao shook her head calmly.

"Jiaojiao, my dear sister, my cutest, loveliest sister, let brother sit for a while, would you? Just say a word to Xiaobai, okay?" Ruan Jie was truly envious. Sitting on Changchong would be such a boast-worthy feat. Even if others thought he was bragging, he felt it would be well worth it.

"..." Ruan Jiaojiao glanced at him then turned to ask Xiaobai behind her, "Xiaobai, is it okay? Brother wants to sit on you too."

"..." Xiaobai.

"Ssss..." Its tongue flicked out. It wasn’t for just anyone to sit on.

"See, Xiaobai didn’t nod. It doesn’t want to," Ruan Jiaojiao said, seemingly regretful.

Seeing this, Ruan Jie had no choice but to accept reality.

As he got up to go back to his room, Xiu Xi happened to be coming up the stairs. Noticing the familiar box in Xiu Xi’s hand, he asked curiously, "Xiaoxi, did you buy this too?"

Xiu Xi didn’t reply but looked over at Ruan Jiaojiao’s direction and handed the item to her.

"This is for you to play with."

Ruan Jiaojiao put down the comic book in her hands and sat up in surprise, "Xiu Brother, when did you buy this?"

"Asked Uncle to buy it," Xiu Xi said.

"So you like this too." Ruan Jie came over from behind and was about to say he would have bought one for him too if he had known earlier, but then he remembered his meager pocket money and silently changed it to, "This is quite fun to play with, only Jiaojiao’s got broken by RouRou."

"Yes, this is for you to play with," Xiu Xi said, passing the handheld game console to Ruan Jiaojiao.

Ruan Jiaojiao accepted it eagerly, "What a coincidence, just as the other one broke, Xiu Brother bought a new one. Come on, let’s play together." She pulled Xiu Xi down to sit beside her.

"..." Xiaobai, its body stiffening into a lump.

It carefully crawled out from under Ruan Jiaojiao, coiled around her waist, and under Xiu Xi’s icy gaze, carefully placed her beside him, then quickly slithered off to Ruan Jiaojiao’s room. Ruan Jie caught sight of this and his eyes shone; he immediately followed after.

Perhaps not having a knack for gaming, no matter how Ruan Jiaojiao played, she couldn’t get all the rings on, but Xiu Xi did it in one go, leaving her feeling quite defeated.

The entire morning was practically spent on that game.

Towards noon, Xiaobai couldn’t stand the scorching heat and went to the mountains to cool off. The kids from the old house came over with their homework, and Zhao Li’s newly bought desk could just about fit everyone, while the ones in middle school wrote their assignments in Ruan Hao’s room.
