Chapter 12: I called you, didn’t you hear me?

Shen Yueying subconsciously stepped back. Fortunately, she was wearing a shirt, and only two buttons were torn off.

Just as she was about to fight back, Shen Rongrong suddenly twisted her wrists a few times, making her arms slippery and impossible to grab, allowing her to escape!

After Shen Rongrong escaped, she saw Wu Zheng, who had said to call him if anything happened, but didn’t show up when she called. She poked him angrily!

“I called you didn’t you hear me!”

Wu Zheng was just joking. It was the women’s restroom, how could he go there?

But he didn’t expect her to actually walk out happily, return with a sullen face, looking very strange.

“Even if you go anywhere, you’re easily beaten. Even going to the restroom…” Halfway through his sentence, he noticed that her braids were messy and her clothes were crooked. He widened his eyes: “You really got beaten?!”

Shen Rongrong nodded vigorously, pointing to Shen Yueying, who was watching her not far away: “Over there!”

As soon as Shen Yueying saw her pointing, she immediately hid back in the restroom, not wanting to be seen.

Just then, they heard a nurse shouting outside: “Family of Jiang Guixiang! Where is the family of Jiang Guixiang! The patient can be wheeled back now!”

“Here!” The man with Shen Rongrong quickly responded and led her away, saying, “Forget it, forget it, you’re not hurt, are you? Let’s go see Grandma first!”

Gao Hui, Shen Yueying’s friend, studied at a nursing school and worked at this hospital, so she knew many nurses.

Unlike what she told her sister, the Gu family had many descendants, and a large group of people were with the old lady, so it wasn’t her turn to shine. Gu Yifeng had also been distant from her recently, so she was eager to find a way to prove herself.

She had brought gifts with her, planning to use her connections. At this moment, she hurriedly fastened her collar buttons, intending to go downstairs to find someone to give the gifts to.

But after taking only two steps, she saw a small handkerchief on the ground. When she opened it, it was a wad of money! She counted it and found there were over a hundred yuan!

It must have fallen out of Shen Rongrong’s pocket during the struggle! Where did this little brat get so much money after not seeing her for a few days!

Shen Yueying was overjoyed and hurried downstairs to take care of her business.

Meanwhile, when Chen Yu returned to the ward with the food he had bought, the room was empty.

Thinking that Grandma had a check-up scheduled, Wu Zheng and Rongrong might have gone ahead, so he put down the food and hurried towards the examination building.

As he passed the small garden, he suddenly heard a familiar voice speaking.

“Oh! My fiancé’s grandma is sick and hospitalized. I was worried, so I cooked chicken soup early in the morning to nourish the old lady. Now Grandma is having a check-up, and there are so many people, they don’t need me, so I came over to see you.”

Chen Yu stopped and looked around.

Special forces soldiers have special training in hearing; any sound that enters their ears is like a brand. This voice… wasn’t it the fiancée his parents had introduced before?

At this moment, Shen Yueying was talking to someone with a beaming smile.

The nurse opposite her was also smiling: “There aren’t many people as filial as you these days, so what do you need from me?”

“I remember you said you like collecting handkerchiefs. My fiancé bought me two imported ones,” Shen Yueying said, taking out a pair of beautifully packaged handkerchiefs from her pocket. “Look at these flowers, this material! They’re so good! You definitely can’t find the same ones in China!”

“They’re really beautiful, they’ve stolen my heart.” The nurse secretly accepted the handkerchiefs and winked at her: “Tell me what you want.”

“I can’t hide it from you.” Shen Yueying giggled twice: “They say having an elder at home is like having a treasure. Our grandma is usually very precious at home. Now that she’s suddenly sick and hospitalized, she’s relying entirely on the nurses in the hospital. Can you take extra care of her during check-ups and things like that?”

“Of course, no problem!”

“That would be great! When the old lady is discharged from the hospital, I’ll invite you to our house for dinner!”

“You’re too kind, we’re all just doing our duty as children.” The nurse pointed to her collar: “I heard you’re getting married soon, you must be very busy with things at home, right? You’re so focused on the old lady’s condition that you’ve buttoned your collar wrong. Fix it quickly, I have to go back soon, my shift is about to change.”

“Huh? My collar? Ah ha… See you next time!”

……

Chen Yu, standing nearby, assumed that her parents were unable to return from out of town and had notified her to come and help.

From their last meeting, he knew that this fiancée was good at managing the household. Seeing her so concerned about his grandma, spending her own money to buy gifts, and saying that her fiancé had bought them for her, he didn’t disturb their conversation, waiting for them to finish before walking over to ask her.

“What are you doing here?”

Shen Yueying had picked up her sister’s money earlier and was so anxious that she had buttoned her collar wrong, embarrassing herself in front of her friend. She was busy looking down and fixing her collar when she suddenly heard a voice so familiar to her soul.

She looked up and was so startled that she trembled all over: “What are you doing here!”

Chen Yu saw her surprised expression and assumed that she only knew that his grandma was sick and didn’t know that he had returned. He explained casually.

“There was a border conflict before, and I… was slightly injured. Coincidentally, there was something going on back home, so they sent me here to investigate and collect evidence. Once the mission is completed, I can take a few days off before returning. It’s also considered a vacation for me. Didn’t my parents tell you?”

“Ah…” Shen Yueying nodded hastily: “That, that…”

She dragged out the word ‘that’ for a while, looking a little scared.

The engaged couple had only met twice so far, and Chen Yu was also a little unfamiliar with her, so he took the initiative to ask the follow-up question.

“Which department is Grandma having her check-up in?”

Shen Yueying immediately replied: “In the gastroenterology department.”

Gastroenterology department?

Although all the previous examination forms had been heavily guarded by Rongrong, at least he had paid the money… it didn’t seem like any gastroenterology department forms had been issued.

“Isn’t it the respiratory medicine department?”

“Respiratory medicine department?”

Seeing the confused look on Chen Yu’s face, Shen Yueying hesitated for a moment, suddenly remembering that she had just heard the nurse shout: Family of Jiang Guixiang!

In her previous life, Chen’s grandma had died soon after she got married. She didn’t know the old lady’s name, but she knew that the old lady had died of lung disease.

The restroom on the second floor of the gastroenterology department was under repair and couldn’t be used, so she had gone to the third floor… which was next to the respiratory medicine department, specializing in treating lungs!

Shen Yueying suddenly realized.

So Chen Yu’s grandma was also sick!

And he seemed to be unaware of the arranged marriage? He thought she was here to see his grandma?

Thinking this, Shen Yueying suddenly laughed and reached out to grab Chen Yu’s sleeve: “Oh… the elderly are getting older, it’s good to check other places as well, treat any problems together, don’t wait for her to find out about other illnesses and have to go back and forth. Right?”

Chen Yu felt that she seemed a bit off, but he was anxious to find his grandma, so he casually agreed: “Let’s go together then.”

“You go first.” Shen Yueying shook her head: “I have some other things to take care of, I’ll come find you later.”

“Okay.”

Chen Yu didn’t ask any further questions, just nodded briefly before turning and leaving. He quickly followed the map and went up to the second floor, looking for someone in the hallways of the gastroenterology department.

But strangely, he couldn’t find his grandma after searching the gastroenterology department for a long time, nor could he see Wu Zheng and Rongrong.

As he turned to look elsewhere, he suddenly heard someone shout from behind: “Chen Yu! Come catch me!”
