Chapter 513: Chapter 513 Those deep dark eyes (4)_1

When Zhao Li unwrapped the present, and saw the mother-son jade pendants, she was stunned for a moment, then her eyes reddened.

First, she gave Shu Jiao a grateful glance, then she hugged Ruan Jiaojiao tightly and choked up, "This is the best birthday gift a godmother could ever receive in her lifetime. Jiaojiao, you really are a treasure blessed to me by the heavens."

Ruan Jiaojiao didn’t say anything, but in her heart she felt the same—this godmother was an extraordinary gift bestowed upon her by the heavens.

She turned and kissed Zhao Li on the cheek, then reached for the jade pendants, saying, "Godmom, let Jiaojiao put them on for you."

"Okay." Zhao Li rubbed her eyes, took a deep breath, and lowered her head to let Ruan Jiaojiao put the pendants on her, then she took the other piece and put it on her.

"Come, let’s see if we look beautiful." After putting them on, Zhao Li picked up Ruan Jiaojiao and went over to the mirror to check.

The two of them struck a couple of poses in the mirror, then looked at each other and exclaimed in unison, "Beautiful!"

"Hahahahaha..." They burst into joyful laughter right after.

Outside, Lu Xian was peeping in, and upon seeing them both laugh, he knew Zhao Li wasn’t angry about what he had done earlier, so he came in from the doorway and curiously asked, "Mom, what are you laughing at?"

"You... come here." Zhao Li immediately restrained her smile and gestured with her hand.

Lu Xian’s face stiffened, and he instinctively wanted to run away, but with Ruan Jiaojiao inside, he didn’t want to make himself look foolish, so he reluctantly moved closer.

He thought Zhao Li was going to scold him, but instead, she smiled and ruffled his hair, praising him, "Next week’s allowance will be increased by one yuan as a reward for you protecting your sister so well today!"

"Really?" Lu Xian, who had been listless, suddenly lit up, asking in surprise.

"Don’t believe me? Then forget it." Zhao Li feigned an indifferent expression as if to say if you don’t want it, it’s no big deal.

Lu Xian immediately clung to her arm and cooed, "Mom, I want it, I want it, you are the best mom in the world, I’m proud to have a mom like you!"

"Pah!" Zhao Li scoffed, pushing him away with disdain, "Stay away from me."

Then she turned to hug Ruan Jiaojiao, kissing her twice, "My daughter is the good one."

"..." Lu Xian.

Forget it, a grown man shouldn’t squabble with a little girl.

He turned to Ruan Jiaojiao, "Jiaojiao, your brother is playing in my room, there are lots of toys there, do you want to go?"

"Go ahead." Shu Jiao also had some things she wanted to discuss privately with Zhao Li, and at the mention, she smiled and said so.

Zhao Li nodded her agreement, but still couldn’t help but anxiously instruct, "Lu Xian, keep an eye on Jiaojiao. If she is missing even a single hair, you’ll have me to answer to, you got it?"

"Got it." Lu Xian responded and was already dragging Ruan Jiaojiao off.

Xiu Xi, who had been waiting at the door, saw him pulling Ruan Jiaojiao out and immediately followed with a frown.

The Lu Family was wealthy and lived in a duplex, so there was no shortage of rooms. Both Lu Xian and Lu Zishu had their own rooms. Lu Xian brought Ruan Jiaojiao to his room and brought out all the things he had secretly bought for her.

"Jiaojiao, all of these are for you." He said happily, as these were all things he saw other girls liking to play with or eat, so he bought one of each for her and kept them together to give to her all at once.

"Thank you, Xian brother." Ruan Jiaojiao smiled and thanked him, deeply moved. The items were not expensive—they were just children’s toys and snacks—but the thoughtfulness Lu Xian showed was very precious.
