Give her pleasure

Chapter 10: He's a nice guy, but he looks a bit stinky

"Thank you for the compliment." Jiang Li smiled calmly.

Just at this moment, the noodles were cooked and brought up by the boss.

The two of them ate noodles quietly.

Although the snack bar is not big, the food is very good and it is also very clean.

It’s just that Jiang Li didn’t have a good appetite, so she just forced herself to eat a little.

Seeing her put down her chopsticks, Xie Huaichu also stopped.

"full?"

"Yeah." She nodded, got up and went to the bar to pay the bill.

Xie Huaichu took a tissue and wiped his mouth, then stood up gracefully and walked slowly towards the hospital beside her.

"Although grandma has undergone surgery, her current condition is still very optimistic. You don't have to worry too much."

After walking for a distance, Xie Huaichu's eyes were always on Jiang Li.

Looking at her slender body, he couldn't help but comfort her.

Hearing the voice, Jiang Li looked up at him with a peaceful smile in her eyes.

"Well, I'll take good care of myself."

"Grandma still needs me, so I won't fall."

She finished speaking slowly and continued walking forward.

Xie Huaichu gazed slightly, the cold white street light stretched the little girl's figure so long.

He took a step forward to catch up with her, took off his coat and put it on her.

"Sorry about the club."

A cold voice sounded in her ears. Although it still did not contain much emotion, it was the best comfort.

He picked up the clothes from the duty room when he came out.

Jiang Li paused slightly, but did not stop.

Instead, she tilted her head to look at him, raised her hand to tighten her coat, and smiled brightly again.

"It's okay, I'll just think of it as being bitten by a mango."

Xie Huaichu: "..."

The little girl was cursing him in a roundabout way.

Jiang Li walked a few more steps, then stopped, looked back at him, and curled the corners of her lips slightly.

"Thank you, Doctor, for offering your warmth. I won't say anything polite."

"I'll return the clothes to you after washing them."

"Okay." Xie Huaichu responded.

He had no idea that there was an obvious hint of joy in his words.

***
The next morning, Lin Guifang woke up.

At that time, Jiang Li was going home to bring food.

She was worried that her grandmother wouldn't be able to get used to the food in the hospital.

I would return home to cook before it was fully light.

When she came over with the thermos, Xie Huaichu was helping Lin Guifang to examine her body.

"Grandma." Seeing the old woman leaning against the head of the bed, Jiang Li walked forward quickly.

He carefully put down the thermos, and happily lay beside the bed, calling her softly.

"My little Ali, you must be scared."

Lin Guifang raised her hand to push away the messy hair in front of her eyes, looked at her with heartache, and said.

Jiang Li shook her head, "No. I won't be scared easily."

After finishing the examination, Xie Huaichu heard this and looked down at her.

I don't know what he was thinking, but he said this leisurely.

"I wasn't scared, I just cried."

Jiang Li glanced at him sideways, pretending to be fierce and sneering at him, "You are the only one who talks too much."

When he turned to look at Lin Guifang, a childish look appeared on his face.

"Grandma, don't listen to his nonsense. He is a liar."

Xie Huaichu: "..."

The little girl is really good at turning the tables.

Watching the interaction between the two, Lin Guifang seemed to have discovered something incredible, and her smile was subtle and meaningful.

"My dear, you are so angry. Could it be that Dr. Xie cheated you of something?"

"That's not the case." Jiang Li pouted and looked at him, rarely showing the shamelessness of a little girl.

"He's a nice guy, but he has a bit of a sour face."

"..."

Is this both praising and insulting?

The little girl was even more eloquent. Lin Guifang was even happier, and looked at Xie Huaichu.

For some reason, she felt that he looked familiar, as if he looked very much like someone.

***
Near noon, the door of the ward was pushed open and a person walked in slowly.

When she saw the man clearly, Jiang Li was a little stunned, "Thank you, Grandpa?"

Xie Zhenguo was leaning on a cane, walking hurriedly, looking anxious, with his eyes full of expectation.

"Jiang girl, what is your relationship with the patient in this ward?"

"It's my grandma, what's wrong, thank you grandpa?"

"Where is she?" Xie Zhenguo asked again, his eyes slightly warm.

"Little Ali, who's here?"

Before Jiang Li could speak, the bathroom door opened and Lin Guifang asked as she walked out.

"Grandma, it's Grandpa Xie, he——"

"Brother Zhenguo? It's really you."

Jiang Li was interrupted by Lin Guifang's surprised question halfway through her words.

She looked at the two old men in front of her in a daze, not knowing what to do for a moment.

"Xiaofang, I really was not wrong."

Xie Zhenguo was also happy. He walked towards Lin Guifang happily.

He held the person's arm, looked left and right, and nodded uncontrollably.

"When I saw your back in the corridor outside, I was afraid that I was dazzled."

"So I ran to the nurse's station to ask."

"When I learned that you were in this ward, I hurried over to see you."

"I didn't expect that after so many years, you haven't changed at all. You're still so beautiful."

Lin Guifang felt a little embarrassed by the compliment, so she quickly pulled him to sit down and joked to herself.

"Brother Zhenguo, please don't talk nonsense. I'm already so old, what's there to be good about?"

Xie Zhenguo: "Well, if I say it looks good, it looks good."

"Do you two... know each other?" Jiang Li listened to the conversation between the two elderly people and couldn't help but interrupt.

Upon hearing this, Lin Guifang was surprised to realize that her granddaughter was still there.

She waved at Jiang Li, motioning her to come over. "Little A-li, this is Brother Zhenguo, grandma's good friend."

Upon hearing this, Xie Zhenguo curled his lips in displeasure.

"How can we be good friends? We are childhood sweethearts."

Just at this time, Xie Huaichu came over to examine Lin Guifang.

"Grandpa, why are you here?" Seeing Xie Zhenguo, Xie Huaichu frowned subconsciously.

This old man is always worrying. He must have sneaked out again.

"I'm here to see my good friend."

Xie Zhenguo was afraid of being scolded by Xie Huaichu, so he quickly shifted the topic to Lin Guifang.

"You know grandma?" Xie Huaichu was also shocked.

Jiang Li walked silently to his side, stood on tiptoes, and whispered in his ear.

"We're not just acquaintances, we're childhood sweethearts."

The little girl's voice was soft, with a hint of teasing and a hint of playfulness.

Xie Huaichu's ears felt numb.

He tried to stay calm and glanced at the person next to him. "So dramatic?"

"Of course not." Jiang Li didn't notice that Xie Huaichu was looking at her.

She leaned slightly towards him, cupped her cheeks with her hands, and looked at the two old men who were looking at each other.

As if she suddenly thought of something, the smile on Jiang Li's face suddenly faded.

He looked up at Xie Huaichu, with a hint of temptation in his eyes.

"Grandpa Xie came to visit my grandma. Does Grandma Xie know about this?"

"Grandma has passed away." Xie Huaichu understood her worries and concerns and spoke directly.

"I'm sorry." Hearing this, Jiang Li showed a trace of guilt on her face.

"I don't know, Grandma Xie..."

"It's okay." Xie Huaichu lowered his eyes and looked at the fair little face.

Especially looking at her lively eyes and the red teardrop mole at the end of her eyes.

One heartbeat was a little abnormal.

He raised his hand, moved it slowly to the top of her head, and was about to put it down to rub it gently.

I don't want Jiang Li's voice to break the atmosphere.
