Capítulo 1283: Chapter 1283: This Is His Cat—Wonderful (Part 1)
After more than an hour, Ruan Jianguo finally found Xiu Xi, who was unconscious from excessive blood loss, in an alley in the town, by following the madly running Rou Rou. Not far away from him, Xiaobai was staring from a distance. Seeing Rou Rou bringing Ruan Jianguo back, Xiaobai’s body, which had been standing straight, finally collapsed, landing on a pile of yellow worms.
The mountain in front was rich in resources, with plenty of ginseng, but finding a Thousand-year-old Ginseng was not an easy task.
In addition to the Yellow Worm that loved to follow Xiaobai, they split into four teams, searching for a full five days before finding this ginseng. The ginseng grew in a dark spot on a steep slope. Originally, it was best for Xiaobai to fetch it, but Xiu Xi was afraid that if it bit into it, it would damage the ginseng’s integrity or only bring out half of it, which wouldn’t be enough for Ruan Jiaojiao, so he went down the steep slope to dig for it himself.
Five days of hardly eating, drinking, or resting had left Xiu Xi’s body extremely weakened. When he found the ginseng, he might have gotten too delighted and relaxed for a moment, which caused him to roll directly down the steep slope.
As a result, he was now covered in injuries, with several wounds bleeding. He no longer had the strength to return and was afraid of missing the optimal time, so he let Rou Rou take the ginseng back first.
Looking at Xiu Xi like this, Ruan Jianguo felt a pang in his heart. He used to always think this wolf pup had bad intentions, watching his beloved cabbage all day long.
Now he realized that without this seemingly malicious wolf pup, he wouldn’t have been able to keep his cabbage alive.
Forget it, forget it.
Ruan Jianguo sighed inwardly, as long as his cabbage could live, who cares who eats it!
Thinking of this, Ruan Jianguo bent down to carry the wolf pup. Midway, the wolf pup woke up once, gazing coldly over, perhaps realizing this was Cabbage’s dad, then lay back down, and stayed unconscious all the way to the Ruan Family.
Over there, Shu Jiao had already given Ruan Jiaojiao a piece of ginseng to suck on, finally relaxing her heart, and carefully saving the rest.
Then she hugged the blanket-wrapped kitten waiting at the door for Ruan Jianguo and the others to return.
Several times during this, a few young ones came up to take a look, but unfortunately, the kitten was asleep and didn’t interact with them at all.
It wasn’t until Ruan Jianguo’s car drove in that Shu Jiao hurriedly rushed forward with the kitten, only to see Xiu Xi, looking like a bloodied person, being carried down.
She frowned, her heart aching: “Couldn’t you carry him properly?”
“…” Ruan Jianguo.
How was he supposed to carry him? Horizontally? Vertically?
He stood nearly as tall as him, does that make any sense?
“Let your second brother go fetch a doctor, he hasn’t come back yet. Xiaolei, quickly go and assist your aunt.” Shu Jiao added, seeing Xiu Xi covered in injuries and feeling uneasy, she turned to hand the kitten she was holding to Shu Wen, who came down after hearing the noise from upstairs.
Shu Wen also stretched out his hands, ready to embrace.
But suddenly, Xiu Xi woke up on Ruan Jianguo’s shoulder, lifted his head, and tried hard to look at the kitten in her arms: “Auntie, give Jiaojiao to me.”
“With all these injuries, you should first…”
“Auntie, please, I beg you.” Xiu Xi blinked, his eyes even carried a scar of blood, his look made one’s heart ache terribly.
Shu Jiao immediately lost any stance, nodding straight away: “Alright, alright, I’ll give her to you, you first lie down on the sofa.”
After Ruan Jianguo placed Xiu Xi on the sofa, Shu Jiao immediately handed the kitten over, which Xiu Xi carefully accepted.
He bowed his head, gazing at the tiny bundle, his mouth slightly curving upward. This was his cat, wonderful.
