Capítulo 1268: Chapter 1268: Survive Certain Death (Part 1)
Because this is a villa area, every time there are letters and packages, the mailman always delivers them personally.
Last night, Ruan Jiaojiao had a nightmare and hardly slept, her head was groggy, and she was lying on the sofa.
Shu Jiao was massaging her forehead, her brow never relaxed.
Shu Lang went out to get the mail, glanced at the address on it, and suspiciously said, “Isn’t this address just a bit ahead? Why send a letter here.”
As he spoke, he walked into the hall and handed the letter to Shu Jiao, who was massaging Jiaojiao’s forehead on the sofa.
Shu Jiao took it, glanced at the address, and found that it was indeed from within the city and from a very nearby address, also filled with confusion.
She opened the letter, and a photo immediately fell out. She didn’t pick it up in time, and the photo happened to fall right in front of Ruan Jiaojiao.
Curiously, Ruan Jiaojiao took a glance.
Cake?
The photo showed a cake.
Ruan Jiaojiao took another look and felt more and more familiar; had she seen this cake somewhere before??
“Who sent it, and even sent a photo of a cake, is it for Jiaojiao’s birthday?”
Ruan Jiaojiao’s birthday is on the tenth of October, and counting the days, there’s only just over a month left.
But who is so stingy as to only send a photo of a cake?
Ruan Jiaojiao was also very curious, craned her neck to look at the letter, but before seeing clearly what was written on it, she saw Shu Jiao’s face change dramatically, looking extremely ugly.
Ruan Jiaojiao’s curiosity grew even stronger; she climbed up from her body and seriously looked at the letter.
Shu Jiao wanted to dodge, not wanting her to see it, but it was already too late.
Because the letter wasn’t actually long, just half a sheet of paper, the writing was quite large and slanted, like it was going to fall apart.
But because of this, Ruan Jiaojiao saw the entire contents of the letter very clearly.
She looked in disbelief, turned around to look at the previous photo of the cake, and then recalled that it might be a cake she had once eaten at the Yuan Family’s house.
The Yuan Family loved giving her cakes to eat, almost every time she visited, she never thought they would do something to it, actually using ritual ashes!
Just thinking about what she had once consumed made her vision go black, the world spinning, and her chest felt like something was surging up, seemingly ready to burst out the next second.
She clutched her chest, panting hard, trying to ease the discomfort but to no avail.
The people nearby noticed her abnormality, were startled, and immediately rushed over to help her with her breathing, thinking that, like last time, her breath was obstructed or even having a heart attack.
Ruan Jianguo even bent down to carry her out, but in the next second, Ruan Jiaojiao clutched her chest and vomited a big mouthful of blood.
“Drip, drip…” Fresh blood dripped down, frightening everyone into a stupor.
Ruan Jiaojiao lifted her head, seeing the panic-stricken faces around her, she wanted to speak to comfort them, but as soon as her mouth moved, mouthfuls of fresh blood gushed out again.
She could no longer hear their voices, only seeing their mouths moving in silence, Ruan Jiaojiao, with tears streaming down, wanted to leave them one last smile.
But heaven did not give her this chance, in the next second, everything went dark, and she completely lost all consciousness.
“Jiaojiao!”
That day was September 14th, the 15th day of the eighth lunar month, the Mid-Autumn Festival, a day symbolizing reunion, Ruan Jiaojiao died untimely at the age of not yet twelve.
