Chapter 1962: Dumb in the Last Life, Even Dumber in This Life (Part 3)
Shu Jiao finished sending off the guests and came in to see this scene. She frowned and said to Duan Xi, "Xiaoxi, take a break too, don’t keep her too close."
"No worries, Auntie, I’m not tired. If I don’t give her a massage, she won’t sleep well tonight," Duan Xi said.
Seeing that she couldn’t convince him, Shu Jiao could only shake her head helplessly, feeling relieved that Duan Qianyang had just left. Otherwise, seeing this scene, who knows what he would think.
Duan Xi has strong hands, but he knows how to control his strength and is familiar with acupoints. Ruan Jiaojiao was very comfortable being massaged by him, and as she was feeling drowsy, she heard Grandpa Shu come out of the room, tapping his cane loudly to attract everyone’s attention, he said, "This is what a man should be like, Xiaoxi, don’t grow up to be unreliable like your father-in-law!"
"Grandpa, what’s wrong with my dad?" Ruan Jiaojiao immediately looked up and asked.
"What’s wrong? Even if he divorced your mom, after being husband and wife for so many years, was it so hard to make a phone call on my birthday?!"
Ruan Jiaojiao’s mind went blank, and she jumped up from the sofa and said, "Grandpa, blame me, blame me! I forgot! My dad prepared a birthday gift for you, and I forgot about it. Wait, I’ll go get it from the car trunk."
After speaking, she dragged Duan Xi outside.
Duan Xi opened the car door, and Ruan Jiaojiao reached in to grab it. As she turned around, she saw Shu Jiao standing behind her.
"Mom?" Ruan Jiaojiao was startled. "Why are you suddenly standing behind me?"
"Is this what your dad asked you to bring?" Shu Jiao pointed at the gift box in her hand and asked.
"Yes." Ruan Jiaojiao nodded. "Dad is out of province now and can’t come back. He instructed me to bring this last night, but today everything was chaotic, so I forgot."
