The Kitty Became a Cutie and Was Pampered in the 80s-Chapter 1839: Sweet and Cozy Days (7)
From the other end of the phone came Qin Yue’s thunderous roar, startling Ruan Jiaojiao and Ruan Lei, who were leaning in to eavesdrop, back simultaneously.
Ruan Jiaojiao shrank back directly into Duan Xi’s arms, while Ruan Lei almost toppled over the edge of the sofa, but managed to grab the armrest at the last second to steady himself.
Then the four of them heard the busy signal coming from the other end of the phone.
Lu Zishu was utterly baffled, holding up the phone and asking them, "What does this guy mean? What’s with saying my mouth is two feet wide? Is that even a mouth?"
Ruan Jiaojiao’s eyes darted around as she looked at him and asked, "You really don’t understand?"
"What?" Lu Zishu, a bit angry, hung up the phone.
"You’re really quite dense!" Ruan Lei shook his head, but his lips couldn’t help curling up. Like Ruan Jiaojiao, he enjoyed the drama and didn’t feel the least bit troubled for his friend, continuing the discussion on how to help Qin Yue get even.
On the other side, Qin Yue was genuinely furious, almost needing to go to the hospital again. Originally, asking Lu Zishu and Ruan Lei was already a lowering of his pride, as he really wanted to teach the other party a lesson.
But he hadn’t expected Lu Zishu to be such a blabbermouth. No sooner had he called than Lu Zishu spilled the beans, letting Ruan Jiaojiao know too, instantly giving him an indescribable feeling of embarrassment, as if the whole world knew his business.
Since they already knew, he decided to go all in and nonchalantly strolled over to the Ruan Family’s house in the afternoon.
However, he thought Lu Zishu would at most have told Ruan Jiaojiao, and perhaps Duan Xi, but when he arrived at the Ruan Family’s, he found a crowd of men and women sitting in the living room. As soon as he walked in, they all turned to look at him... with eyes full of sympathy and indescribable excitement, leaving him completely bewildered and feeling awful.
Let’s rewind to a little over two hours earlier. After Lu Zishu hung up the phone, he started planning for Qin Yue. First, they needed to handle things with style; they couldn’t just walk or ride a beat-up bicycle over there. That would be too embarrassing. They needed cars, and more than one!
The Ruan Family currently had three cars: one belonged to Ruan Jianguo, an older model from years ago, and Ruan Hao had two, both now imports, giving quite the impression. He wasn’t stingy and allowed anyone in the family with a license to drive them. Ruan Lei and others had driven them before, so the Ruan Family could provide one car.
The Lu Family also had two cars, but they were unrelated to Lu Zishu, though he could sneak one out when needed.
Ruan Jiaojiao also had a car, a gift from Duan Qianyang when she and Duan Xi got engaged, making it the third car.
Three cars, three drivers, all capable behind the wheel. Ruan Jiaojiao thought that was about enough, but Lu Zishu felt it was far from adequate; they needed one more car. Just then, Duan Xin called Duan Xi to ask if he wanted to hang out during the break. Lu Zishu, who knew Duan Xin from school, promptly snatched the phone and invited him over.
Duan Xin, also on break and bored, eagerly accepted Lu Zishu’s invitation and hurried over.
After Duan Xin arrived, coincidentally, Xin Miao also called Ruan Jiaojiao, hoping to hang out with her during the winter break.
