Chapter 235: The Strongest Male (1)_1

The Ruanlin Family also worried about Xiu Xi. Grandmother and granddaughter lay on the bed, with the elder Ruanlin leaning against the headboard and Ruan Jiaojiao nestled in her arms. Ruanlin held a fan, idly waving it back and forth.

Outside, the cacophony of cicadas and toads rose and fell in waves.

Ruan Jiaojiao had been waiting to the point of drowsiness when suddenly she heard faint footsteps from outside. She immediately sat up straight from Ruanlin's embrace and turned her head to look towards the door. Ruanlin's gaze followed.

"Nanny... When will Xiaoxi..." Ruan Jie had come to ask when Xiu Xi would be back since Xiu Xi shared a room with him and usually slept in Ruan Hao's bed. However, Ruan Hao had returned today, and they were supposed to sleep together.

But at this late hour, Xiu Xi hadn't returned, so he came to inquire. Yet before he could finish his question, he saw the two looking at him with intense gazes.
