The old lady shook her head." No.”If there was any news, she couldn't have kept it from Qin Jiu.
There were some things that she didn't tell Qin Jiu in the past because Grandma felt that she was still young. If she told her, she might not be able to accept it or understand it. However, in the blink of an eye, Qin Jiu had grown up. Grandma didn't plan to hide the things that she should let her know.
Qin Jiu swallowed her saliva. After thinking about it seriously, she finally asked the question in her heart.
"Grandma, do you think my parents are still alive?”After asking, she looked into Grandma's eyes with unusual anticipation.
"Yes." The old lady did not want to hide anything. She nodded heavily." I'm sure that the person under the white cloth back then did not think that he was your father.”
Qin Jiu was pleasantly surprised." What about them? Where are they now?”She couldn't wait to know the answer.
However, this question was too naive. If the old lady knew the whereabouts of her son and daughter-in-law, she would not have remained indifferent until now. She would definitely do her best to find them.
"I don't know." The old lady shook her head in a daze." After your mother left, I haven't received any news about her until now.”
When Qin Jiu heard this, the hope that had ignited instantly extinguished. No matter what, it was better to be alive even if there was no news than to leave forever.
At this moment, there was a rhythmic knock on the door. Qin Jiu turned his head to look and realized that Lu Chuan was already standing outside the door.
Qin Jiu's reaction was a little dull. She stared blankly at Lu Chuan and did not know how to react. She did not even know when that man had arrived. Did he not hear anything or heard part of the conversation between her and Grandma just now?
Lu Chuan looked at the dazed woman and smiled gently." Grandma, how do you feel today? How do you feel compared to yesterday?" Is it better? "The man asked as he walked into the ward.
Qin Jiu only reacted when she heard the question. She raised her hand to rub her stiff face and smiled unnaturally at the man." You're back."”She moved closer to the man.
"Why didn't you call me? I called you but you didn't pick up.”Lu Chuan naturally took the woman's hand.
Qin Jiu unnaturally pulled the man's arm away and grabbed his bag to rummage through his phone. He saw that there were five calls from Lu Chuan.
"I'm sorry!" She looked at Lu Chuan in embarrassment. He had called her so many times, but she hadn't picked up. She felt that it was all her fault.
"I'm fine." Lu Chuan caressed the woman's head lovingly." It's good that you're alright. I just missed you and called you."”The man looked at Qin Jiu and said sincerely, not caring if there were others present.
Old Mrs. Qin's face turned serious as she coughed twice." You two, be careful."”She looked at Lu Chuan with disdain.
Lu Chuan did not mind and laughed out loud." Grandma is right.”
Because of Lu Chuan's appearance, Qin Jiu and Grandma's conversation had to end. After all, this was still a family matter of the Qin family. It was not appropriate for Lu Chuan to stand in and talk, so neither of them brought up this topic again.
She didn't know if Lu Chuan had heard her, but he didn't ask any questions about the topic. He just kept complaining about the old lady.
One moment, he was serving tea to the old lady, and the next moment, he was peeling fruits for her.
The old lady felt that Lu Chuan was a little too attentive. After eating a few grapes that he washed, she arrogantly chased him away.
"I say, if there's nothing else, go home first.”The old lady leaned against the bed and waved at the two people opposite her." It's fine if you come to see me for a while every day, but I get annoyed when you keep hanging around in front of me.”When the old lady spoke, she indeed showed a very impatient look.
Actually, how could she find it annoying? In the past, when Xiaojiu was young, she didn't even find it annoying when she jumped around in front of her every day. The main reason was that the elderly were afraid of burdening the children because of their own matters. Lu Chuan and Qin Jiu also had their own jobs. If they put too much energy on her, it would inevitably cause negligence in their work.
The old lady didn't want to trouble the children.
"Grandma." Qin Jiu called out to Grandma sullenly." I'll stay here with you tonight."”She looked at her grandmother, feeling wronged.
The old lady's expression turned serious again." Are you worried that I'll die tonight?”She asked Qin Jiu stiffly.
Qin Jiu was stumped by her grandmother's question. She was speechless for a long time before she looked up at Lu Chuan.
Lu Chuan smiled gently at the woman again." Be good. If Grandma wants you to go home, go home."”Like a parent, he held Qin Jiu's shoulder and educated her carefully.
In fact, Grandma did not have to worry about anything in the hospital. Firstly, Grandma was staying in a VIP ward. Everything was well-equipped. If she needed anything, there were nurses on call. Secondly, he had also arranged for reliable people to stay in the hospital, so there was no need to worry about Grandma's personal safety.
Lu Chuan also agreed with Qin Jiu's decision to go home for his own benefit.
"Go back, go back!" The old lady looked at Qin Jiu's bewildered expression and waved her hand at him again. However, her tone this time was much lighter than the last time.
Qin Jiu could only nod helplessly." Alright then, Grandma. I'll go back first today."”she said reluctantly.
"Alright, go out. I'm going to sleep.”The old lady yawned as she spoke.
Qin Jiu sighed softly, took his bag, and turned to walk out of the door. When the two of them reached the door, the old lady said something else.
"Send Xiao Jiu back and tell her to be careful when she sleeps alone at night.”The old lady said this to Lu Chuan.
Although these words sounded normal, there was a hidden meaning behind them. The old lady had been through it before. It was impossible for her not to know what Lu Chuan was up to. The reason why he told Qin Jiu to be careful when sleeping alone at night was to tell Lu Chuan clearly not to have any ideas about Xiao Jiu.
"I understand, Grandma." Qin Jiu naturally didn't think in that direction, but the quick-witted Lu Chuan immediately understood what she meant.
"I know, Grandma." The man replied in a low voice, and the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up into a faint smile." Then I'll send Xiaojiu home first."”After saying that, she gently closed the door for Grandma.
Qin Jiu only realized that Lu Chuan was smiling when she walked out of the door. She asked the man curiously," What are you laughing at?”After asking, she raised her hand to touch her face. She thought there was something on her face.
Lu Chuan pulled the woman into his arms." I'm not laughing. I'm in a good mood. Can't I just laugh?"”Then, he planted a kiss on the woman's head.
"Psycho, let go of me." Qin Jiu twisted her body restlessly. She felt that the man who was hugging her was acting crazy.
The man who was scolded as a lunatic was not angry. He could not help but hug Qin Jiu even tighter instead of letting go.
"See if I won't kill you tonight." He blew at the woman's ear ambiguously, then wrapped her pink earlobe in his mouth and gently sucked it.
Qin Jiu's body trembled unconsciously, and then his entire earlobe and even his face flushed red.
"What are you doing?" She said shyly, then wriggled in the man's arms." Send me home later!"”The home she was referring to was the one she and Grandma lived in.
Lu Chuan didn't answer. He only snorted twice.
Qin Jiu was already a little tired after a long day of work, and after that incident with Qiao Weiyang, she fell asleep in the passenger seat the moment she got into the car. Anyway, with Lu Chuan by her side, she was not afraid of anything.
In her eyes, Lu Chuan was so outstanding and powerful. Previously, when she was with him, she had even experienced a gunfight. Nothing more thrilling would happen when she drove home!
Lu Chuan looked at the woman's sleepy eyes beside him and did not have the heart to disturb her. However, after a while, he would tilt his head to look at her face. The woman was sleeping very quietly. She curled up into a ball like a kitten. Sometimes, she would purse her lips, and sometimes, she would scratch her head. She did not seem to be sleeping soundly.
It took about 40 minutes to drive back from the hospital, and Qin Jiu woke up after about half an hour.
The moment she woke up, she was still a little groggy. She rubbed her eyes sleepily." We're not home yet?"”The woman asked the man vaguely.
Lu Chuan smiled again when he heard that. Because Qin Jiu looked a little embarrassed at the moment, he threw a box of tissues from the car onto Qin Jiu's lap." Wipe your saliva."”He did not expect Qin Jiu to start drooling when he slept until the end.
After the man said this, Qin Jiu's face immediately turned red. She quickly took out a few cards and adjusted her posture to tidy up her appearance behind the man.
"How embarrassing." Qin Jiu said in her heart, annoyed. It was not until she wiped her saliva that she asked Lu Chuan," Are we almost home?”
"There are still ten minutes." Lu Chuan answered seriously. However, the place he brought Qin Jiu to was not the home Qin Jiu mentioned, but his villa in Yujing Garden.
Qin Jiu didn't know where he was until he got out of the car. He looked at the familiar building and asked in surprise," Why did you bring me here?”She frowned, her expression twisted.
After Lu Chuan got out of the car, a sentry immediately came over." Hello, Chief."”The sentry greeted Chief Lu and tactfully went to park the car.
"I'll stay here tonight. You haven't been back for a few days.”Lu Chuan put his arm around the woman's shoulder and replied disapprovingly. This was her home, and it was only right for her to come back here.
Qin Jiu didn't refute him when he heard that. He just shrugged his shoulders and made a very helpless gesture. Since she was already here, it was better to stay here. It would be troublesome to go back again. Anyway, she had everything here.
It was still the same familiar room. There were all kinds of her clothes in the closet. Qin Jiu took her pajamas and went into the bathroom to take a shower.
