CHAPTER 778: CHAPTER 778: DA BAO MISBEHAVES (6 UPDATES)

Xu Niannian was of course aware of the situation, but Ye Shaoting seemed to have absolutely no such thoughts toward Ji Ruhua.

Moreover, up until now, Ji Ruhua’s heart is still set on her man.

"Sister-in-law, this matter should be left to Shaoting, and besides, Miss Ji hasn’t made a statement either."

Speaking of this, Sister-in-law Du sighed.

"Isn’t that the truth? Xiao Ye is just a foolish blockhead, not enlightened at all. Such a beautiful girl, and he doesn’t know to cherish her. At my age, by rights, they should be calling me ’auntie’."

"I find it difficult to communicate with them. See, I thought of you; you’re from the same age group as Xiao Ji and Xiao Ye, so surely you have more topics in common. Could you help me, go have a word with Ruhua and Xiao Ye, see what they think?"

Xu Niannian: "..."

This sister-in-law is really worrying herself to death.

What a pity, those two are destined not to be.

Ye Shaoting’s evasive attitude is as clear as day to anyone.

However, she didn’t outright refuse; she diplomatically said, "Sister-in-law, as for Shaoting, Jin Yu and I will help to broach the subject, but as for Miss Ji, I’m afraid I can’t be of help."

"Ah? How come?" Sister-in-law Du asked.

"I’m not close with Miss Ji; we just met. She definitely wouldn’t want to tell me such things. Isn’t she best friends with Qu Xiaoran? You could ask her for some inside information."

Sister-in-law Du, upon hearing this, let out a "Hai": "You’re right, I forgot that you’re not familiar with her. But that girl Qu Xiaoran, asking her is useless too, just another scatterbrain, no different from those darned men."

As the two chatted, there was a knock on the door.

"Who is it?" Sister-in-law Du, cradling Xiao Bao, got up to open the door.

"Sister-in-law, it’s me."

The person at the door was none other than Ji Ruhua.

Following her was a man from the same team, the very one Jin Yu had stopped earlier.

"Oh, Xiao Ji has arrived," Sister-in-law Du said with a smile, welcoming her in.

Xu Niannian raised an eyebrow and let out a cold laugh. Indeed, some people just can’t take a hint.

Xiao Bao, obediently nestled in Xu Niannian’s embrace, lifted his head upon hearing the cold snort, glanced at Xu Niannian, and seeing the chill in the corner of her eyes, stretched out his little hand to grasp Xu Niannian’s neck tightly.

As Sister-in-law Du ushered Ji Ruhua in, she spotted Sister-in-law Du holding Xiao Bao and guessed that Xu Niannian was there.

A fleeting glance exchanged between them was like sparks flying.

Ji Ruhua pursed her lips: "Miss Xu is here too."

"What, I can’t be?" Xu Niannian said, her smile more forced than genuine.

Sister-in-law Du felt the atmosphere was a bit strange, but thought nothing of it.

"Xiao Ji, please sit down. I’ll get some sunflower seeds for you to crack," Sister-in-law Du said.

Because the seeds were stored at the bottom of the cabinet and required opening the top cover, one hand wasn’t enough, so Sister-in-law Du said, "Xiao Ji, could you hold Xiao Bao for me?"

Since the child was still small, Sister-in-law Du dared not place him on a chair, fearing he might fall.

Xu Niannian certainly didn’t want Ji Ruhua holding her child, not knowing if she might harm Xiao Bao.

Yet in front of Sister-in-law Du, she couldn’t bluntly say no.

Ji Ruhua hesitated for a moment, but seeing Xiao Bao’s brows and eyes resembling Jin Yu’s, she felt joy and took Xiao Bao from her.

She sat on the couch, and as Sister-in-law Du stood and handed Xiao Bao to her, Ji Ruhua had to lift her hands to catch him.

But just as she touched Xiao Bao’s little hand, he suddenly peed on Ji Ruhua’s face.

Directly onto her face.

Ji Ruhua let out a shrill scream and instinctively pulled back her hand.

And Sister-in-law Du had just let go.
