Chapter 723: Chapter 723: Snatch (15)_1

That was clearly Xiu Xun’s little uncle, Jiang Bin!

Back when the Ruan Jiaojiao who had occupied her body was about to get engaged to Xiu Xun, she had met him. It’s just that Jiang Bin was already nearing forty at that time, so she couldn’t immediately link him with the tall uncle before her.

Within the Jiang Family courtyard, the most outstanding member of the previous generation was Xiu Xun’s little uncle Jiang Bin. Xiu Xun also held this uncle in high regard and often heeded his advice on many matters.

However, despite being remarkable, until her received memory ended, it seemed he had never married. He appeared to be a bachelor by choice.

Ruan Jiaojiao couldn’t hide her astonishment at meeting Jiang Bin so unexpectedly.

According to the timeline of her previous life, this was several years ahead of schedule. Did this mean that if Jiang Bin came over at this time, Xiu Xun was about to be recognized by his ancestry and allowed to return to his clan?

Xiu Xun had been abducted to these parts. When he arrived, he was very young, maybe only one or two years old, so he probably had no memory of this uncle.

This year’s citywide top rank was hers and Xiu Xi’s. Ruan Jiaojiao didn’t know whether this would disrupt Xiu Xun’s original life trajectory and cause Jiang Bin to not notice him at all.

"Ah, who brought these little dried fish? They’re quite tasty." While Ruan Jiaojiao was lost in thought, Lu Zishu on the other side started to exclaim.

Ruan Jiaojiao instantly snapped back to reality, looking as Xiu Xi snatched the last few strips of little dried fish from the bottle and put them in her bowl. She suddenly lost interest in Xiu Xun’s affairs upon recalling the origin of the dried fish.

She had enough to worry about with her own brother’s issues. She had no time to think about others!

"These were made by Wei Brother’s mom," Ruan Jiaojiao replied.

"Ruan Wei’s mom? Ruan Wei has a mom?" Lu Zishu was full of surprise.

"No shit, what did you think, he popped out of a rock?" Little Fatty retorted with a glare. However, thinking of Ruan Wei’s mother, he felt that the little dried fish didn’t taste as good anymore.

The situation with Liao Zhaoji left Ruan Wei completely befuddled, but for them, the outsiders who were clearheaded, everyone knew her intentions were far from simple, yet no one felt it right to speak up! It was truly frustrating.

Ruan Jiaojiao could only hope that her second uncle would take the matter a bit more seriously and prevent Ruan Wei from being too deeply hurt.

Meanwhile, Zhao Li, accompanying Principal Jiang Bin and others, visited the Ruan Family restaurant for a meal, and along the way, Jiang Bin subtly inquired about Xiu Xi’s background.

——

As soon as the evening study bell rang, the people around all cheered and quickly left their seats. Ruan Jiaojiao and Xiu Xi, as usual, waited till most people had left before they too began to make their way out.

The homeroom teacher no longer escorted them, but Little Fatty and Lu Zishu were steadfast in seeing them to the school gates.

Perhaps worried about the little dried fish incident from earlier in the day, once they reached the school gate, Little Fatty pulled Ruan Jiaojiao aside and whispered, "Jiaojiao, keep an eye on Xiaowei when you get back. That kid’s pretty naive."

"Okay," Ruan Jiaojiao nodded.

Once on the bus, Ruan Jiaojiao couldn’t wait to ask Ruan Jianguo, "Daddy, did Uncle go back today?"

"Of course he went back. How could Daddy not take care of what my darling asked for? Don’t worry, he went back right after noon."

Ruan Jiaojiao breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. However, considering how Ruan Wei might react, her heart tensed up again, hoping he hadn’t been too badly hurt.
