Chapter 1228: Chapter 1228: Recognizing a Goddaughter (5)
Xiu Xi knew exactly what was being discussed—it was simply about how another person wanted to take his cat away!
He had no choice but to accept it!
Feeling upset, his face turned sullen. He scanned the classroom with a stern expression, and the previously noisy classroom quickly fell silent.
Only then did Xiu Xi withdraw his gaze and reach into his desk for a book, but as soon as he reached in, his brows furrowed.
Jiaojiao had been watching him. Seeing his expression change, she immediately tilted her head to look into his desk, and then saw Xiu Xi pull out a small cake. It was one of those small cakes in red plastic containers given at birthdays.
When they first came out a few years ago, they were quite expensive, but as living standards improved and goods became more plentiful, these small cakes weren’t as popular anymore and became much cheaper.
However, the real question now was—who put it there?
Xiu Xi looked at the small, mysterious cake and his face was filled with disdain.
He got up with the cake and walked to Yang Men from the second group.
Yang Men had been looking down for something when she suddenly felt a shadow cast over her. She immediately looked up and saw Xiu Xi standing in front of her, holding the small cake she had given him, causing her face to flush.
She intended to say it was unnecessary to thank her, but instead, Xiu Xi tossed the cake onto her desk and turned to leave.
“Xiu Xi, what do you mean by this!” Yang Men’s face turned even redder, but this time out of anger.
She truly couldn’t understand why he was so ungrateful, preferring to be a tag-along with the Ruan Family rather than accepting her kindness.
Xiu Xi was in an extremely bad mood now. Normally a quiet person, he spat out two words: “Disgusting!”
Disgusting?
Yang Men’s flushed face turned pale as she looked at him in disbelief.
The last time she tried giving him buns, she didn’t succeed. But that time, it was Ruan Jiaojiao who refused on his behalf, even humiliating her, so she had thought it was just Ruan Jiaojiao’s opinion and didn’t represent his own.
That’s why this time she came to school early to secretly place the small cake on his desk, thinking this way she respected his dignity while keeping it a secret from Ruan Jiaojiao.
She even planned to continue giving them for a long time and wait until the timing was right to tell him it was from her, thinking this would reduce the pressure he might feel.
Anyway, she thought of many possibilities, but never imagined this scenario.
Not only did he return the small cake in front of the whole class, but he also bluntly said it was disgusting, which for a girl was the ultimate humiliation.
By the time she recovered, Xiu Xi had already returned to his seat, and from a distance, she seemed to see him wiping his hands with a handkerchief?
Yang Men was so furious she nearly spat out blood!
Jiaojiao knew that Xiu Xi could detect it just by smell, so she wasn’t surprised to see him return the cake.
But seriously, what was Yang Men’s problem? Why was she always sending food to her brother Xiu?
While this was happening in the classroom, outside, Shu Jiao was talking with Yang Xiaona. Shu Jiao, not one to beat around the bush, got straight to the point, “Xiaona, Auntie would like to adopt you as her goddaughter, would that be okay?”
Yang Xiaona looked up in shock at her.
The next second, she was about to nod eagerly in agreement, but then Shu Jiao said, “Xiaona, don’t rush, listen to what Auntie has to say first.”
