After taking a moment to catch his breath, Lin Jiage tried his best to appear composed. He walked slowly into the ward as he threw out an excuse that he crafted on the spot, âThe Great Demon King is suffering from period cramps.â
âThe Great Demon King?â Grandpa Lin frowned. âDo you mean Mr. Zhang? Isnât he a male professor?â
AhâŠ
Lin Jiage was silent for two seconds before he calmly replied with an âOhâ. Then, âI left out a word. Wife. His wife.â
âI seeâŠâ Grandpa Lin accepted Lin Jiageâs explanation. He couldnât help recalling that the âGreat Demon Kingâ that Lin Jiage mentionedâProfessor Zhangâseemed to be in his sixties this year. For his wife to still be suffering from period cramps, their age gap sure was a little huge. Thus, he added, â⊠It seems like Professor Zhangâs wife is pretty young.â
Lin Jiageâs lips twitched inconspicuously as he silently turned his head away.
Grandpa Lin also couldnât be bothered to waste his attention on his grandson anymore. He turned to Shi Yao and said, âYaoyao, why are you still standing? Come here and sit downâŠâ
Grandpa Linâs âYaoyaoâ was like a whip lashing on Lin Jiage, causing his back to tense up.
Shi Yao quickly gave an obedient greeting of âGrandpa Linâ before making her way towards the hospital bed.
âYaoyao, what brings you here today?â The tone which Grandpa Lin directed towards Shi Yao was as amicable and close as always.
But in this moment, the amicable voice sounded no different from a ticking time bomb in Lin Jiageâs ears.
Before Shi Yao could even speak up, he had already forcefully interjected into the conversation and asked, âShi Yao, you donât have any classes this afternoon?â
Shi Yao was just about to respond to Grandpa Linâs words when Lin Jiage abruptly cut in. Surprised, she froze.
H-heâs actually taking the initiative to speak to me? It feels like the first time in years since heâs done thatâŠ
Shi Yao was stunned for two seconds before she turned an incredulous look towards Lin Jiage.
She didnât speak, only responding with a simple, light nod.
She thought that he would drop the conversation there and get back to whatever he was doing, so she turned her attention back towards Grandpa Lin. However, whoâd expect his calm voice to sound once more, âHave you eaten yet?â
Shi Yaoâs dark eyes swam around for a few moments before she gave Lin Jiage a hesitant nod. âI have⊠eaten.â
âWhat did you eat?â
This⊠Was he trying to â awkward converse 1 â with her?
Shi Yao blinked her eyes several times before responding, â Yuxiang shredded pork 2 , red braised pork belly, Shuizhu fish 3 , tea egg, a bowl of rice, and a bowl of pork rib corn soupâŠâ
He was only using it to divert her attention away, did she really have to reply to him so earnestly?
But, whoâd have thought that Soft Bun would be such a glutton? To be able to eat even more than me⊠For that little body to conceal such an astounding appetiteâyou really canât judge a book by its cover!
While Lin Jiageâs mind wandered, Shi Yao had already turned her attention back to Grandpa Lin, âGrandpa Lin, youââ
Barely after Shi Yao began speaking, a screeching sound echoed in the room.
It was produced from a chair being dragged on the groundâŠ
Following which, that chair was placed right behind Shi Yao.
Before Shi Yao could make sense of what was happening, the reticent Lin Jiage spoke up once more, âSit down.â
This sudden bit of attention left Shi Yao a little startled. She stared at the chair for a while before she turned to look at Lin Jiage, not daring to take a seat.
âIs it too dirty for you? Iâll wipe it for you thenâŠâ As Lin Jiage spoke, he really did reach out to grab a tissue paper.
âNo, no, thatâs not it.â Alarmed, Shi Yao shook her head vehemently before fearfully sitting down.
