The Kitty Became a Cutie and Was Pampered in the 80s-Chapter 796 I’m Your Uncle (4)_1

Jiaojiao wasn’t familiar with the Xiu Family either, so she couldn’t just bluntly ask to go in and look around. All she could do was wait outside while Jiang Bin took a look for her.

It wasn’t until Jiang Bin had seen enough that Jiaojiao got up from her chair, embarrassed to interrupt Hu Yun’s awkward boasting. She said farewell to the Xiu Family and started walking back.

The Xiu Family of three didn’t suspect anything, simply thinking that they were truly just out for a walk.

On the way back, Jiaojiao asked him, "Uncle Jiang, why haven’t you told Xiu Xun yet?" freewebnøvel.coɱ

He’s resisting me right now, and I’m afraid he won’t accept this identity," Jiang Bin said, a touch of helplessness in his voice. He too wanted to settle things quickly and then take him back to the Jiang Family, but he was afraid of botching things up.

After hearing this, Jiaojiao fell silent for a moment. After walking a few meters, she said, "Uncle Jiang, although I’m not familiar with Xiu Xun, I think he’s someone who knows what he needs. Perhaps it would be better to speak to him directly about it."

At least Jiaojiao remembered that in her previous life, Xiu Xun hadn’t rejected this identity but had accepted it quite easily.

Jiaojiao felt that someone like him, who grew up in a less-than-ideal environment, would be more mature than his peers mentally and would at least know what he wanted.

Jiang Bin was taken aback by her words and then looked at Jiaojiao, thinking that maybe she was right.

With such a turn of events, Xiu Xun’s wariness would naturally be higher than that of ordinary people. By hiding these things and not even making any demands to support him, maybe Jiang Bin appeared untrustworthy in his eyes?

Jiang Bin didn’t speak again and was deep in thought all the way to the Ruan Family home.

The Ruanlin Family had already prepared the meal. Meatball and Sanmao each had their own bowls and were eating in a corner. Seeing Jiang Bin and Jiaojiao return, Mrs. Ruan warmly invited them, "Come and eat, there’s nothing much at home, just a few simple dishes. Xiaojiang, the restaurants in town might be closed when you get back, so you might as well make do here and see if you like the food."

"You’re too kind, Auntie," Jiang Bin said with a smile, not bothering with formalities as he washed his hands at the well with Jiaojiao before sitting down at the dinner table.

Jianguo and Shu Jiao hadn’t come back yet. Apart from Ruan Wei from next door who was there for dinner, there was only Jiaojiao and Mrs. Ruan at home, and Xiu Xi still hadn’t returned. Now with Jiang Bin, there were four people in total, one for each side of the table.

The meals were already served. Jiaojiao, looking at the large bowl of rice in front of her, pushed half of it over to Ruan Wei beside her.

Seeing this, Mrs. Ruan chided her, "Why are you eating so little again? You’ve gotten thinner lately."

"..." Jiaojiao kept silent, just cracking a small, obedient smile and not engaging in the topic because she couldn’t tell Mrs. Ruan that she had already started planning to lose weight.

A few days earlier, Shu Jiao had gone upstairs to find her some autumn clothes. Clothes purchased just last year were all too tight this year!

Of course, according to Mrs. Ruan, this was because she had grown a bit, which was why the clothes no longer fit. But facing her plump reflection in the mirror, Jiaojiao genuinely couldn’t agree with that reasoning. She didn’t want to end up looking like a ball wrapped in a down jacket come winter—just thinking about that scenario filled her with despair.

Mrs. Ruan, of course, knew what Jiaojiao was thinking, but she simply didn’t think the girl was fat. Children, she thought, were supposed to be a bit chubby to look good and healthy, not skinny like a bamboo pole with nothing to look at!
