Chapter 635: Chapter 635 The Peace Rope is Broken (9)_1

Meanwhile, in the room of Ruan Jun next door.

Nine boys were huddled together, gathered around Ruan Hao, all with their heads down, concentrating on something.

Little Fatty, the most impatient of them all, had been struggling for a long time, and the thing he had crafted was still crooked and twisted. He immediately got flustered and muttered, "Back then, I really should have kicked it a few more times!"

"Done it right, if you make it ugly, Jiaojiao won’t like it," Ruan Chi said with a cold snort as he glanced at the crooked rope in Little Fatty’s hands.

Hearing this, Little Fatty pursed his lips. He too wanted to be doted on by his little sister, and to be among so many brothers, that meant he needed to be outstanding. With this in mind, Little Fatty calmed down, glanced at his most diligent elder brother, and lowered his head to start focusing.

However, for a little girl, making these kinds of ropes might just be a matter of minutes.

But for these boys, it really was more difficult than ascending to the heavens; sitting there crafting for an entire afternoon, they hardly made any that looked good. Luckily, Ruan Hao had given each of them plenty of ropes, so they had time to practice at leisure.

Jiaojiao had no idea that her brothers were trying hard to make things usually made by girls just for her. She ate her egg custard absent-mindedly, wondering why her brothers, as well as her parents, were nowhere to be seen.

Shu Jiao had gone to the city with the elder Mrs. Yuan.

The Buddha Beads tainted with blood meant they had taken on evil spirits—not only did they need a professional to clean off the bloodstains, but they also had to find someone to bless them anew.

Elder Mrs. Yuan, being a devout Buddhist, had taken her to see the monk she trusted.

Zhao Li and Shu Wen, on the other hand, had gone to the mall, hoping to find a similar-looking Buddha bead. They didn’t understand what this bead truly meant, only that it was very important to Jiaojiao.

Before the real Buddha Beads were cleaned and blessed, they wanted to use another one to soothe her.

So, until dinnertime, Jiaojiao hadn’t seen any of them, and she was already beginning to feel wronged, terribly so, but she struggled not to show it.

It gets dark late in the summer.

When Shu Jiao walked out of the temple, she felt truly relieved. She carefully wrapped the Buddha Beads in her hand with a red cloth.

After saying goodbye to the elder Mrs. Yuan, she hurried home without noticing the older lady’s somewhat unusual expression.

The elder Mrs. Yuan didn’t rush to leave the temple; instead, she went back in again...

Shu Jiao, Zhao Li, and Shu Wen met at a restaurant. Seeing each other, the three women exchanged smiles and each presented a Buddha bead.

This was the best outcome. They had thought if it was too late to clean and re-bless the original bead, they would use others in its place, but now that was unnecessary.

By the time Shu Jiao and Shu Wen got home, night had completely fallen.

All the guests at the Ruan Family home had left; Jiaojiao was curled up in Ruanlin Family’s embrace, watching TV. Xiu Xi sat on the other side, while the puppy vigorously played with Sanmao’s tail in a corner.

Seeing it was dark outside and none of her brothers, parents, or aunt had come back, she could not hold back anymore.

Looking up, she asked Ruanlin Family with a pitiful expression, "Nanny, where are Mom and Dad? Why aren’t Auntie and my brothers at home? Where did they go?"

Ruanlin Family could easily see the wronged look in her eyes. She was about to console her but was interrupted by the sound of a car outside. Jiaojiao’s eyes suddenly lit up, she sat up from her embrace, and ran out quickly.
