Chapter 555: Chapter 555: Three Naive Ghosts (4)_1

"I won’t, I’ll only skip grades this once in elementary school." As if she knew what Shu Jiao was thinking, Ruan Jiaojiao hugged her arm and cooed, "Mom, I can take care of myself, and when I start junior high, Brother Feng and Brother Lei will be there, they’ll take care of me."

"I’ll take care of you too." Xiu Xi, standing outside the door, added a sentence, unwilling to be left out when he heard her not mentioning him.

Actually, he was quite looking forward to attending middle school together. Away from home, she would only have him to rely on, which was the thing he was most anticipating at the moment.

"Right, right, there’s also Brother Xi. Mom, let me skip a grade, please, pretty please, Mom..." Ruan Jiaojiao’s voice at the end was drawn out, long and soft.

Shu Jiao was almost immediately convinced and nodded her head.

"Alright, on Monday, Mom will make a trip to your school," Shu Jiao said helplessly, patting her little head, "It’s already very late, go to sleep."

"Okay." Ruan Jiaojiao nodded vigorously, tiptoed to give her a kiss, and then ran off joyfully, with Xiu Xi consciously following behind.

Watching the two little ones leave, Ruanlin’s father went to close the bedroom door.

But even without any disturbances, the previous mood had vanished, and Ruanlin’s father let out a heavy sigh, laid down on the bed, and thought about how children are indeed little debtors. Looking at their naughty boy, it was... just suffocating.

"Wife..." Ruanlin’s father drew out the word as he called, "Let’s go to sleep too," his voice a bit plaintive upon a careful listen.

"You go ahead, I still have some things to deal with," Shu Jiao said. After finishing, she seemed to remember something and tugged at him, "Wait before you sleep, I have something to discuss with you. We should hire three workers; otherwise, we really can’t handle everything."

"Okay, whatever you decide is fine," Ruanlin’s father nodded, his eyes half-closed, already close to falling asleep.

Shu Jiao nodded, after a few seconds of silence, just as Ruanlin’s father was about to drift off, she asked him, "Jian | Guo, have you talked to mom about our trip to Beidu during the winter vacation?"

At the mention of this, Ruanlin’s father instantly woke up, sitting up with some difficulty, "Not yet."

The truth was he didn’t know how to bring it up. The Ruanlin Family cherished Ruan Jiaojiao so much that even a day out of her sight would make them restless, even though Feng Nianian had been gone for nearly half a year.

And—

"Would Jiaojiao be willing to go?" Even the most careless and unconcerned parent could sense their daughter’s taboo regarding Feng Nianian. Although Beidu was vast and they might not run into her.

"If it really doesn’t work out, just the two of us could go, without the children," Shu Jiao said, but even though she claimed they wouldn’t take the kids, her face still looked somewhat disappointed. Besides, if the Ruanlin Family couldn’t be without Ruan Jiaojiao, could she?

Her daughter was her life now; she couldn’t bear to part with her either.

But she couldn’t say this in front of her husband, she could only suffer in silence.

The couple remained silent, and the topic was dropped.

Shu Jiao didn’t have classes on Monday morning, so she specifically accompanied Ruan Jiaojiao to school. On the way there, Little Fatty had an inexplicable sense of crisis, rubbed his chubby hands red from the cold, and asked, "Auntie, what are you doing at our school?"

Shu Jiao smiled at him, patted her daughter’s little head and said, "Jiaojiao wants to be in the same class as you next year, Auntie is going to sort out the paperwork for her."

"!!!" Little Fatty! It’s happening! It’s finally happening!
