He had thought that in such a village, girls like Jiaojiao might not be favored, and with two older brothers above her, her life in the Ruan Family might not be so good.
But after arriving at the Ruan Family's, his perception was completely shattered.
He realized how narrow-minded his previous thoughts and prejudices had been, despite priding himself as an intellectual. What a joke.
Shu Lang had been in the Ruanlin family's house for quite a while, long enough that Xiu Xi had even come up from upstairs and stood in the doorway staring at him with a cold gaze.
Shu Lang stood up from the bedside and, passing by the boy who was especially close to Jiaojiao and whom he also had a good impression of, he wanted to talk to him. However, he saw the boy sidestep him and enter the room to sit quietly by the bed, seemingly waiting for Jiaojiao to wake up.
"..." Shu Lang. Something felt off, leaving a bad taste in his mouth.
