The Kitty Became a Cutie and Was Pampered in the 80s

Chapter 2151: Chapter 2151

Duan Xi shook his head and stopped her from continuing.

From six to twelve years old, Jiaojiao experienced two brushes with death, living so arduously. Now that she’s finally made it through, how could he bear to let her face it all over again.

"????" Jiaojiao blinked in confusion.

"Nonsense." Duan Xi lightly chided, then glanced at the gift box in his hand: "You can’t have this."

"Okay, I won’t take it." She nodded repeatedly, whispering, "Then let’s throw it away later when there’s no one around."

Duan Xi’s expression eased a little, pulling her into his arms: "You’re mine."

"Yes, yes, yes, I’m yours." Jiaojiao agreed with a blush, finding it nostalgic yet refreshing to see Duan Xi’s awkward and childlike demeanor after so many years.

Just as the two hugged, a little tugging at her pant leg made Jiaojiao look down in confusion, finding Little Potato with a flushed face and large, pitiful eyes: "Big sister is bad, leaving the baby."

"Ah, sorry, sorry, Little Potato, sister forgot about you!" Jiaojiao hurriedly pushed Duan Xi aside and apologized, bending down to pick up Little Potato, her face turning red as she realized she’d been so focused on leading Duan Xi away that she’d completely forgotten about Little Potato.

"Bad!" Little Potato was still upset.

Jiaojiao had just forgotten him, and he’s small with short legs, struggling to keep up with them as they ran, causing his face to turn red. Who would have thought he’d find them in the corner, secretly hugging!

He extended his little arms, signaling his need for hugs and kisses: "Hug hug, kiss kiss."

"Okay, sister will hug and kiss you." Jiaojiao felt full of guilt. Fortunately, it was the Ruan Family’s hotel, and the staff all knew Little Potato, with no outsiders today—all guests were there to celebrate her birthday. Otherwise, if Little Potato got taken away, she’d be devastated.

Feeling remorseful, Jiaojiao picked up the chubby little one and kissed him repeatedly, completely neglecting the other person.

Duan Xi was mercilessly pushed aside and watched her pick up Little Potato and kiss him repeatedly, further confirming his previous decision—never have little kids!

As Jiaojiao carried Little Potato and came out of the corner with Duan Xi, the main hall was already bustling with guests. Most of those expected had arrived, and Yu Rou had also brought her parents over. While her parents were exchanging pleasantries, Yu Rou quietly asked Jiaojiao, "Jiaojiao, where is your brother Qun?"

"I don’t know either, I haven’t paid attention." Jiaojiao replied. Apart from Ruan Hao, Ruan Chi, and Ruan Jun greeting the guests, the other brothers weren’t in the hall. Jiaojiao guessed they were probably in some private room playing cards or something.

"Can you take me to find him?" Yu Rou asked somewhat shyly.

Jiaojiao glanced at Yu Rou’s parents, who were talking to Shu Jiao and Ruan Da-kuan not far away, especially at Jiang Bai with some concern. "Xiaorou, I don’t object to you wanting to become my sister-in-law, but would your mom agree?"

She hadn’t interacted much with Jiang Bai, but the few encounters made her doubt she’d agree to her daughter being with Xiaojiu, whose parents were divorced and whose family situation was ordinary, especially since Yu Rou was an only child and her parents doted on her.

Of course, Jiaojiao wasn’t saying Ruan Qun’s situation was bad; in her eyes, each of her brothers was outstanding.
