Chapter 1936: Studying Abroad (7)
She doesn’t even know how to face them tomorrow, how to face Zhao Li, who has loved her like a daughter since she was a child, and now this kind of thing happens... Whenever Ruan Jiaojiao thinks of it, she feels so uncomfortable that she can’t stop crying.
Shu Jiao held the sobbing little girl, not rushing to speak, letting her vent her emotions, occasionally stroking her back and hair to help soothe her.
Ruan Jiaojiao cried for a few minutes before her tears gradually stopped. She sat up from Shu Jiao’s embrace, wanting to wipe her eyes with the back of her hand, but Shu Jiao stopped her.
Shu Jiao took a handkerchief from her pocket, pressed her hand down, and asked, "Feeling better?"
Ruan Jiaojiao nodded with pursed lips, looking at her with some embarrassment.
"You’re still young, when you’re upset or uncomfortable, you can cry, no need to hold back." Shu Jiao said softly, gently wiping her face.
Ruan Jiaojiao looked at her, and asked quietly, "Mom, why aren’t you asking me what happened?"
She felt this wasn’t like her usual behavior; before, whenever something occurred, Shu Jiao would first listen to her seriously before offering advice.
"You’ve grown up. Some things, if you feel you need mom’s help, you can tell mom, but if you feel embarrassed, you can learn to solve them yourself." Shu Jiao replied.
Actually, Zhao Li had already discussed today’s matter with her before coming.
To be honest, she was quite surprised. She prided herself on being observant, but this matter was completely unexpected.
