Chapter 955: Only I Can Guard It (2)
"Brother Xiu, have you had dinner?" Seeing Xiu Xi looking ragged, Ruan Jiaojiao’s heart ached terribly. She turned her head and asked the Ruanlin Family, "Grandma, is there hot water?"
"Yes, yes, yes." The elder lady of the Ruanlin Family clapped her hands and hurried to heat up some water.
Ruan Jianguo and Lu Zhiwei were originally drinking, but now they stopped and quickly served Xiu Xi a big bowl of rice. Ruan Jiaojiao dragged him to the dining table to eat.
Xiu Xi must not have eaten for several days; as soon as Ruan Jianguo put the rice in his hands, he started devouring it hungrily.
The other young men around looked at each other in bewilderment.
They only knew that Xiu Xi went to Beidu to participate in a competition, but he did not return with them, seeming to have been delayed by something, and they knew nothing else.
But now it seemed that things were not so simple.
When Ruan Jiaojiao was at home, she was always taken care of; now she sat eagerly by his side, continuously dishing out food for him. Seeing him eat in haste, she softly told him to slow down.
Perhaps it was because a bowl of rice had settled in his stomach, Xiu Xi’s pace of eating had slowed down a bit.
