Chapter 208: Gap-Toothed (3)_1
The Ruanlin Family also woke up and, seeing her struggling to find rest, extended a hand to gently caress her back. Ruan Jiaojiao couldn’t feel more comfortable, and soon she fell into a deep sleep.
It wasn’t until the next morning that she learned last night not only had wolves but also several monkeys entered the neighboring Liu Family’s home. The wolves had killed all the chickens and ducks she had just bought, and the monkeys had wreaked havoc in the house, to the extent that even Xiu Cheng’s arm was bitten severely, revealing the bone beneath. He went to the clinic first thing in the morning.
Ruan Jiaojiao sipped her goat’s milk, yet her gaze rested on Xiu Xi beside her.
She couldn’t help but think that this incident must somehow be connected to him.
She beckoned him over with a wave of her hand, and as Xiu Xi leaned in, she whispered in his ear, "Xi brother, did you do it?"
Xiu Xi looked at her and, without hiding anything, nodded. "He bullied you, so I taught him a lesson," he admitted.
If it had been before, he would have surely killed them!
"There’s actually no need for this; my brothers have already avenged me," Ruan Jiaojiao said. It wasn’t that she felt sympathy for Xiu Cheng, but she thought it unnecessary. Moreover, if the wolf frequently came down from the mountain and caused a disturbance, it could attract the villagers’ attention. After all, wild animals frequently descending from the mountains were not a good omen. Eventually, if reported, people would come to exterminate them, and that would be problematic.
"They are them, and I am me," said Xiu Xi, his gaze resolute.
Seeing this, Ruan Jiaojiao could only voice her concerns.
After listening, Xiu Xi simply patted her little head and said, "There won’t be any trouble, don’t worry."
