After hearing Shu Jiao's words, Xia Qia's expression didn't change much, and she even looked very determined: "Ajie has already talked to me about this, I... am willing." She said the latter part with unusual firmness.
Ruan Jie instantly smiled like a fool.
The Ruan Family found it hard to watch.
The Ruanlin Family directly grabbed Xia Qia's hand and said, "Good child, from now on, we're family. Rest assured, our boy is not worth much here, and if this boy ever bullies you, feel free to tell us, and we'll help you teach him a lesson!"
"..." Ruan Jie had a speechless expression.
He looked plaintively at the Ruanlin Family, knowing since childhood that boys weren't valued in their family, but there was no need to say it out loud right in front of everyone!
Shu Jiao, hearing Xia Qia's response, also relaxed her expression, even showing a bit of a smile towards Ruan Jie as she said, "Ajie, it's Xia Qia's first time at our home, take her around for a good tour."
