Chapter 34

The next day, Shu Wan did not forget that today was the day Grandma Huo went to the hospital for a check-up. She washed her face, brushed her teeth, ate, changed clothes, and when she was almost ready, Huo Zhengye just came back.

Before leaving, Grandma Huo asked curiously, “Do you want to go out and play?”

Shu Wan smiled and said, “We are going to a new place today, grandma must be obedient.”

Grandma Huo shook her head and nodded.

When Shu Wan arrived at the hospital, she unexpectedly ran into an acquaintance.

Bai Qianrou was wearing a nurse’s uniform. When she saw Huo Zhengye coming, her eyes lit up. “Brother Huo, I have made an appointment for grandma in advance. Let’s go get the X-ray first.”

“Thank you.” Huo Zhengye expressed gratitude.

Bai Qianrou saw Huo Zhengye staring at her, and her heart beat faster. “No need to bother, grandma’s matter is more important.”

Shu Wan was stunned watching from the side. She remembered that Bai Qianrou was a good friend of the original owner, and it seemed that she had improper thoughts about Huo Zhengye.

Shu Wan didn’t have any feelings. It had nothing to do with her. After the divorce, Huo Zhengye could marry whoever he wanted.

Bai Qianrou said to Grandma Huo affectionately: “Grandma, come with me.”

Grandma Huo felt a little uneasy and held Shu Wan’s hand tightly.

Shu Wan looked at Grandma Huo and said, “Let’s play hide-and-seek. You hide and I catch.”

After saying that, she winked at Bai Qianrou, and Bai Qianrou reacted, “Grandma, I have a good place to hide. Come with me, I guarantee you won’t find me.”

When Grandma Huo heard this, her uneasiness faded away and she followed Bai Qianrou into the house for the examination.

Leaving Huo Zhengye, Huo Miaoyue and Shu Wan outside.

Huo Zhengye heard every word Shu Wan said just now, and was surprised at his grandmother’s trust and reliance on Shu Wan.

At the same time, I was surprised that Shu Wan was able to calm my grandmother down so quickly. She went for the check-up obediently with just one sentence. This shows that Shu Wan really cares about my grandmother.

Huo Miaoyue has a much simpler mind. She wants her grandma to return to normal as soon as possible. She has been feeling very depressed these past few days, with Shu Wan always suppressing her.

Everyone outside the examination room had different thoughts, when suddenly there was a noise inside.

The doctor in a white coat came out and went in again, and soon there was no more noise.

After a while, Bai Qianrou came out and told Huo Zhengye:

“The film has been taken, but grandma was too emotional just now. The doctor gave her a sedative. She will wake up in about half an hour.”

“When the film comes out, Brother Huo, take it to see the doctor.”

Huo Zhengye nodded.

Bai Qianrou was called away by her colleagues and left reluctantly.

Half an hour later, Grandma Huo slowly opened her eyes.

Huo Zhengye went to get the report, leaving Huo Miaoyue and Shu Wan in the ward.

Shu Wan noticed Grandma Huo’s movements immediately, “Grandma, are you awake?”

Grandma Huo nodded and looked at the strange and beautiful face in front of her.

“Where’s Miao Yue?”

The old man in front of him had clear eyes and an aura of authority without even getting angry. He spoke in a polite and distant manner, and did not look kind and loving at all.

The smile froze on his face and returned to normal the next second.

Shu Wan consciously took a step back, made room for him by the bed, and called Huo Miaoyue, “Grandma is awake.”

Huo Miaoyue looked again and again, afraid of being beaten again, so she didn’t dare to get close.

“Miaoyue, don’t you know grandma? And what’s going on now? Tell me why I’m in the hospital?”

The grievances in Huo Miaoyue’s heart burst out and she lay on Grandma Huo and cried loudly.

Shu Wan left silently, leaving the two of them alone.

When Huo Zhengye came back, he saw Shu Wan sitting alone on a bench, with the sun shining on her. Even though it was a bright sun, she looked inexplicably lonely.

Huo Zhengye had seen Shu Wan with a frown on her face, breaking down in tears, and acting unreasonably, but he had never seen Shu Wan like this, as if she was pulling herself away from the world, filled with an inextricable loneliness.

When Huo Zhengye was hesitating about how to start speaking, Shu Wan discovered him.

The emotion just now disappeared in an instant, as if what I just felt was an illusion.

Before she could ask, she heard Shu Wan say, “Grandma is awake, go check on her.”

Huo Zhengye didn’t care about anything else. He pushed open the door and saw the familiar grandma.

“Grandma.” Huo Zhengye’s voice trembled a little and his eyes were red.

Grandma Huo sighed, her eyes full of love.

Grandma Huo looked at Shu Wan behind her again, feeling a little embarrassed.

Just now, Huo Miaoyue told her what happened when she was ill, and she actually mistook Shu Wan for Xixi.

Xixi…

Thinking of this, Grandma Huo felt a tightness in her chest, and even the joy of seeing her grandson again faded a little.

In Huo Miaoyue’s opinion, it was Grandma Huo who didn’t like Shu Wan.

Look, the smile on her grandmother’s face is gone.

Huo Miaoyue was secretly happy and gave Shu Wan a provocative smile.

Shu Wan was sad for a moment, but her reason wiped out this emotion. They got divorced in a few days. Instead of living in this sad autumn, they might as well find a house and move out.

Thinking of this, Shu Wan no longer felt sad and was only thinking about going back to work.

Perhaps because of what happened when she lost her memory, Shu Wan always felt that Grandma Huo was obviously uncomfortable when she was with her, and she didn’t even look at her. A sense of awkwardness flowed between them.

At this moment, Shu Wan had completely put herself in the right position. She greeted Huo Zhengye directly and went home first.

Now she can go home and make a lot of scarves and gloves. Isn’t it great for her to make money?

Bai Qianrou was surprised when she learned that Shu Wan had left. “Sister Shu Wan is going home now? I heard that Grandma Huo loved her very much, so she didn’t want to accompany Grandma for the checkup.”

Huo Zhengye frowned, feeling that Bai Qianrou was hiding something.

Shu Wan had just arrived home and was opening the door when Yu Chunyan from next door came over and asked, “Why are you back?”

“Huo Zhengye and Huo Miaoyue are in the hospital, so I came back first.” Shu Wan replied with a smile.

“Have you eaten lunch? I still have some dumplings that I made for lunch.”

Cucko

Shu Wan touched her belly and said awkwardly, “Thank you, sister-in-law.”

Yu Chunyan waved her hand and said, “Why are you being polite? I’ll go back and heat up the dumplings. Come over to eat later.”

“Okay, thank you for your help, sister-in-law.”

Yu Chunyan went home with a smile on her face.

Shu Wan put down her things, took out some candy and biscuits from the cupboard, and took them to Yu Chunyan’s house.

It’s embarrassing to go to someone’s house empty-handed. It’s the way of the world.

We should not take other people’s kindness for granted, but should pay attention to reciprocity.

After picking up the things, Shu Wan went to the next room. Yu Chunyan was very surprised when she saw what was in Shu Wan’s hand.

I didn’t expect Shu Wan to come and bring things with her.

This bag of biscuits and candies is much more valuable than her cabbage dumplings.

Yu Chunyan refused again and again, “Take these back, there are only a few dumplings, we don’t need them.”

Shu Wan stuffed the thing directly into Hu Zi’s arms, “Hu Zi, this is given to you by your auntie, take it and hide it quickly.”

Seeing that Yu Chunyan was still going to refuse, Shu Wan raised her brows and said, “Sister-in-law, if you don’t want to, I’ll leave right away.”

“Well, my sister-in-law doesn’t have much at home, so I’ll give you enough dumplings.”

“My sister-in-law’s cooking skills are top-notch.”

The dumplings made by Yu Chunyan had large fillings and thin skins. The crust was chewy and the saltiness was just right. Shu Wan was full after eating more than a dozen of them.

After dinner, Shu Wan touched her belly and asked Yu Chunyan, “Sister-in-law, do you want to make money?”
