Chapter 480: A Little Girl Who Looks Like Her (2)_1
"Jiaojiao," Shu Jiao quickly took the soda bottle from her hand and handed it together with Jiaojiao to Ruan Jianguo, then wrapped her in her own embrace.
"Don’t be scared, don’t be scared, everything’s alright, Mommy’s here," she comforted her tenderly, thinking she was just frightened by the barber’s description.
The barber, regaining his senses, immediately slapped his own mouth, cursing, "Aiya, look at this stupid mouth of mine, it’s all my fault, it’s all my fault. Little girl, don’t be scared, Uncle won’t talk anymore, okay?"
Ruan Jiaojiao still nested in Shu Jiao’s arms, her complexion pale. She didn’t know if it was just her imagination.
The person that the barber described gave her a chilling feeling, as if... the person who once occupied her body had come back yet again.
Even though Xiu Xi said nothing, he was also beside her, holding her small hand, providing silent consolation.
Seeing Ruan Jiaojiao scared to such a state, the barber became increasingly regretful and didn’t dare to continue speaking, turning back to his stall.
Ruan Jiaojiao was held in Shu Jiao’s arms and gently comforted for a while, gradually calming down, her complexion slowly returning to normal. Only then did Ruan Jianguo and Shu Jiao breathe a sigh of relief.
During the haircut, the barber was very careful, avoiding Ruan Jiaojiao’s wound, and finished cutting her hair. When he removed the black cloth, he smiled and complimented, "The little girl is so pretty. It’s rare to see a haircut as good looking as this on a tomboy. You two are really blessed. Both kids are so adorable, one after another."
He mistook Xiu Xi for Ruan Jianguo and Shu Jiao’s child as well.
Upon hearing this, Shu Jiao and Ruan Jianguo did not correct him but just smiled, asked for the price, paid, and prepared to leave.
