Chapter 1164: Chapter 1164: Turning Point (5)
When helping Jiaojiao wash her hands, he didn’t hurt her, while also keeping the bandages on her thumb and index finger dry.
After washing her hands, both of them were safe and sound.
Xiu Xi looked at Yang Xiaona, who was carrying Jiaojiao on her back, with a somewhat mysterious gaze.
On the way back, it was peaceful and nothing happened, as if her bad luck was just an illusion.
Although school had just started, there was still quite a bit of homework to be done. Jiaojiao’s hand was injured and she couldn’t hold a pen, so she could only read and memorize texts, occasionally glancing at Yang Xiaona.
After finishing evening classes, Shu Jiao waited at the classroom door. Xiu Xi carried Jiaojiao out on his back. Since the school gate and the dormitory were on the same path, Ruan Lei and Yang Tao joined them on the way, playing around and having fun, creating a joyous atmosphere.
As they were reaching the school gate, Yang Tao suddenly thought of something and asked Jiaojiao, "Did Xiao Yan apologize to you?"
Yang Tao asked on purpose because she knew Xiao Yan hadn’t, probably influenced by rumors at school. Xiao Yan thought that the Ruan Family was so wealthy that they wouldn’t trouble a poor student like her. So when someone asked if she had gone to apologize and pay compensation to Jiaojiao, she confidently said she wouldn’t go.
Unfortunately, she wasn’t in the classroom then but had gone to eat in the cafeteria. If she’d known, she would have gone up to confront her.
"No." Jiaojiao shook her head. By the end of the day, she had completely forgotten about it.
"She didn’t come?" Shu Jiao frowned.
Jiaojiao nodded.
Shu Jiao didn’t say anything and just smoothed her bangs, but Yang Tao laughed. Next to her, Ruan Lei gave her a thumbs up, and she looked away haughtily.
Jiaojiao was still pondering whether the evening’s incidents were accidents or coincidences, so she didn’t notice their interaction.
After leaving the school gate, they saw Ruan Jianguo’s car waiting outside. Shu Jiao sat in the front seat, while Jiaojiao and Xiu Xi sat in the back. They were all family, so they knew everything and naturally had nothing to hide.
Jiaojiao asked Xiu Xi directly, "Brother Xiu, was it a coincidence in the evening?"
"What happened?" Shu Jiao in the front asked.
Jiaojiao explained what happened earlier. After hearing it, Shu Jiao’s eyes lighted up, but such things couldn’t be confirmed as coincidences or accidents just once; it would take several instances to observe.
"Jiaojiao, you should interact with people more," Shu Jiao suggested. Some people might just have better luck, and maybe Yang Xiaona was such a person.
Jiaojiao hesitated at these words. She’d been so unlucky lately, and if she really approached Yang Xiaona, maybe she would transfer her bad luck to her, which wouldn’t be fair at all.
"Mom, wouldn’t that harm her?" Jiaojiao asked.
Shu Jiao was startled, then her eyes dimmed. Her concern blinded her to thinking of just her daughter’s well-being, ignoring others’ safety.
She had long regarded Xiu Xi as a peer, so naturally, she needed to ask for his opinion on such matters. Her gaze shifted to Xiu Xi.
Jiaojiao had come back to this world to change her fate against all odds, thus carrying calamities, but she also indirectly received the Ten Thousand Years Cultivation from Xiu Xi, so she carried good fortune. Animals liked her, and the Ruan Family’s business was doing even better than in the previous life. These were the reasons why.
