In the next second, Shi Yao instinctively turned her gaze to the young man beside her.
His shirt was slightly wrinkled, and his hair was messy. Most likely, he hadn't slept for an entire night in the hospital.
But even so, his skin was still glowing.
Seeing that Lin Jiage wasn't moving, Grandpa Lin hardened his tone, "Go!"
Shi Yao hurriedly reined in her thoughts. "Grandpa, I'll go myself …"
"How can a girl wash fruits with her hands?" Before Shi Yao could finish her words, Grandpa Lin had already cut her off. Following which, he glared at Lin Jiage threateningly, "Are you going or not?"
It wasn't that Grandpa Lin hadn't asked Lin Jiage to do something for her in the past, but he had never done so. For that, he had been reprimanded by Grandpa Lin many times …
Grandpa Lin was still sick, and Auntie Sun had told her last night that he shouldn't get angry in his current condition.
Fearing that the two of them would get into a fight over her, Shi Yao hurriedly moved her lips.
But before she could say anything, Lin Jiage, who was sitting leisurely on the sofa, suddenly stood up, picked up the fruits by the side, and walked into the washroom.
Shi Yao was stunned.
It was only when Lin Jiage passed the washed fruits over to her that she finally snapped out of her daze.
She thanked him blankly, and just as she was about to take the fruits, Grandpa Lin spoke up once more, "Peel them. How are you going to let Yaoyao eat them if you don't peel them?"
"N-no need …" Just like before, before Shi Yao could finish her words, Lin Jiage had already picked up a fruit knife and began peeling the skin of an apple clumsily in front of the trash can.
T-this … Is this still the Lin Jiage I know?
In the past, putting aside washing fruits, he couldn't even be bothered to look at her!
Not to mention, they even had such an unpleasant argument yesterday …
Shi Yao stared blankly at the ugly, crooked fruit that Lin Jiage had peeled as she contemplated the situation in her mind.
By the time Auntie Sun returned to the ward with the medicine, Lin Jiage had just finished peeling the fruit.
Putting down the fruit knife, he turned to Auntie Sun and said, "Auntie Sun, get the driver to pick me up now. I have something important to attend to at two, so I have to make a trip to the research institute."
When Shi Yao heard Lin Jiage's words, she took a look at the time and saw that it was already ten past one. She had a lesson at two, so she said, "Grandpa Lin, I have a lesson later, so I'll be leaving too."
Grandpa Lin replied to Shi Yao's words, "Let's hurry back to the academy then. Yaoyao, do you have any pocket money left?"
As he asked, Grandpa Lin turned to Auntie Sun and said, "Give the young mistress a thousand bucks."
While Auntie Sun was taking out the money, Grandpa Lin suddenly remembered that the research institute Lin Jiage was heading to was in the opposite direction of G University. Both of them had matters to attend to at 2pm, so there was no way he could send Shi Yao off first …
Without any hesitation, Grandpa Lin said, "Oh right, Auntie Sun, get the chauffeur to send Yaoyao back to school."
Following which, Grandpa Lin turned to Lin Jiage and said, "You can either take the subway, the bus, or a taxi …"
After which, Grandpa Lin turned to Auntie Sun and said, "Give Young Master a hundred bucks and have him find a way to get to the research institute himself."
One thousand yuan, one hundred yuan … wasn't the difference too big?!
As it turned out, his grandson was picked up from the streets, but his granddaughter-in-law was his real granddaughter-in-law!
Two seconds later, Lin Jiage suddenly realized the words that had just flashed across his mind, and his body stiffened.
Holy shit, G-g-granddaughter-in-law?
Just what in the world was in his head?
