Chapter 2323: Chapter 2323

Yang Tao threw a pillow over, looking distressed, "So many years of feelings, in the end, were misplaced."

Jiaojiao was amused to the point of laughter.

In fact, everyone knew it was a joke. Given the Yang Family’s circumstances, they wouldn’t be unable to buy a house in Beidu. For Jiaojiao, if Yang Tao really asked, her property would truly be available for her to live in.

Everyone just knew it was a joke, so they deliberately said it that way.

Speaking of Yang Xiaona buying a house, Yang Tao said, "She’s doing so well now, she should be marrying your brother Chi soon."

Jiaojiao’s hand, holding the pillow, paused, and her eyelids drooped.

According to the original plan, Yang Xiaona and Ruan Chi were supposed to get married in 2000. The date had even been calculated by someone, but because of Lu Xian’s death, this matter was put on hold.

Ruan Chi, Ruan Jie, and Lu Xian grew up together, like the Three Musketeers. Before college, they were almost inseparable. Even though they later attended different universities, whenever they got together, their rapport was still very good. That kind of tacit understanding was unmatched, even compared to their actual brothers.

With Lu Xian’s passing, Ruan Jie became more diligent than before, spending almost all his time training in the military. Meanwhile, Ruan Chi, in the legal profession, also carved out a stormy path, to the point where even the wedding, which was supposed to be on schedule, was postponed, showing the significant impact Lu Xian’s death had on him.

Sometimes, late at night, when it’s quiet, Jiaojiao would let her mind wander, wondering how wonderful it would be if life could be infinitely replayable. She would certainly intercept before anything happened to Lu Xian...

"Jiaojiao." Seeing Jiaojiao’s mood sink, Yang Tao thought of Lu Xian too.

She had no real interactions with Lu Xian, but she knew about the Lu Family’s matters back then. She patted Jiaojiao on the shoulder, and Yang Hong, nearby, asked, "Do you want to go grocery shopping now? Vegetables won’t be fresh if we go late."

Yang Tao, pulling Jiaojiao up, said, "Sure, Jiaojiao, let’s go together. Say whatever you feel like eating; this guy’s cooking skills are really not bad."

The three left the Yang Family, with Yang Hong driving in the front, and Jiaojiao and Yang Tao sat in the back, heading to the market.

At the market, the appearance of all three quickly drew a lot of attention, especially Jiaojiao. Passing by many stalls, she was greeted warmly by vendors. Jiaojiao, with her thin skin, blushed throughout from the enthusiastic calls, feeling as if not buying their produce would somehow wrong them.

Just then, Yang Tao, who couldn’t cook, muddled things further, clamoring for whatever was recommended. She wanted to gather everything despite only three of them dining tonight. It wasn’t feasible to carry everything back, which gave the only one who could cook, Yang Hong, a headache. In the end, having no other choice, he pushed them toward a fruit stall, bought them a bunch of grapes, and after washing, placed it in front of them, "You two stay here and eat. Wait for me to come back, and don’t wander off, okay?"

The tone of his instructions was like scolding a couple of mischievous children.

Jiaojiao awkwardly touched her nose, while Yang Tao boldly listed a long menu, then fished out two hundred yuan from Yang Hong’s pocket, finally waving him off, and wandered with Jiaojiao down the food stalls outside the market.
