Chapter 247: The Female Lead’s Godmother (2)_1
Xiu Xun was noticed by the school leadership after topping the primary school graduation exam, and coincidentally, that school leader was Zhao Li’s maternal relative.
Even more coincidentally, later on, Xiu Xun, in order to marry Wa Yiting, to elevate her status, acknowledged Zhao Li as his godmother. At that time, the Lu Family had also risen to wealth, having tied their fortunes to power, and so they were even richer than the Ruan Family.
Zhao Li herself was someone who liked girls, and she always treated Wa Yiting very well. Wa Yiting knew how to charm people, and later on, Zhao Li and she were almost indistinguishable from a real mother and daughter.
In the original book, Zhao Li was depicted as Wa Yiting’s powerful maternal backing, which is why there was more written about her—giving Jiaojiao a rather deep impression of her.
Now, looking at this woman watching her with such affection, pulling her into her embrace and cherishing her, Jiaojiao felt a complex mix of emotions and lowered her eyes.
Even if she didn’t like the original character, who perhaps was very troublesome, she still couldn’t bring herself to like the cause of the Ruanlin Family’s downfall and ruin.
Even if the original personage was at fault in thousands of ways, the members of the Ruan Family were not to blame.
"Jiaojiao, call out to people, why aren’t you calling out?" Seeing Jiaojiao with her head lowered, not addressing anyone with her usual sweet words, the Ruanlin matriarch reminded her with some confusion.
"It’s alright, it’s alright, the child must be shy!" Zhao Li didn’t mind at all, her smile was incredibly warm as she looked at Jiaojiao in her arms, "Jiaojiao, I am your Brother Lu Xian’s mother, you can call me Auntie Li."
As she spoke, she handed a peach to Jiaojiao, "Here, do you want to eat a peach?"
