"How?" Qi Yuan raised his head.

Lu Xin opened the car door and sat in the back seat: "I still refuse to say anything."

As Qi Yuan expected, Xiong Zhiyong's mouth was tightly shut. Even after listening to the entire 15-minute recording, he just fell to the ground and wept bitterly, without revealing any truth.

He usually has an honest and simple personality. He has no possessions, lives in poverty, and has no bad habits. He doesn't eat hard or soft food, and doesn't eat oil or salt.

His only weakness is his filial piety.

Qi Yuan supported his forehead: "Try a few more times." Now there is no other way.

Lu Xin hummed, and gently took her hand.Her hands were very hot, filled with human warmth.

Lu Xin gradually folded her ten fingers together and slowly wrapped her hand into the palm of her hand.

However, compared to Qi Yuan, her hand was still too small, it only covered half of it, and the back of her pale and slender hand was still exposed.

Qi Yuan looked down and couldn't help but smile.

Lu Xin suddenly felt heavy on her shoulders, and a furry head was buried on her shoulders, gently rubbing against the side of her neck, and her thin long hair made her neck itchy.

Qi Yuan closed his eyes and let out a long sigh, as if he wanted to sigh away his melancholy.

Lu Xin stretched out an index finger and wrote a few words on her palm.

Qi Yuan smiled and felt carefully: "What? It will be fine..."

Lu Xin wrote one stroke at a time, and replied seriously: "It will get better."

Seeing her serious look with lowered eyes and pursed lips, Qi Yuan couldn't help laughing again, took off the mask, leaned over and kissed her on the forehead.

The cold touch was like a superficial touch, and it would leave as soon as it was touched. Lu Xin was still taken aback, her eyes widened slightly, and she subconsciously looked in the rearview mirror.

The driver looked away trying to hide, and coughed a few times: "I didn't see anything."

Lu Xin: "..." This expression is so fake.

Although the driver didn't say anything, he cast his gaze intentionally or unintentionally along the way. The gaze was not malicious, but it also made Lu Xin feel hot on the cheeks and sweaty palms, as if he had become a rare animal for people to visit in the zoo.

Qi Yuan held her hand frankly, without being affected at all.

When she got out of the car, Lu Xin suddenly slumped her shoulders and walked quickly.

Qi Yuan had to keep up with her speed: "Why are you walking so fast?"

Lu Xin's eyes flickered: "Aren't you afraid?"

Qi Yuan: "What are you afraid of?"

Lu Xin pursed her lips slightly: "I'm afraid he...tell your grandpa."

Qi Yuan could see what she was worried about, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, my grandpa won't object."

Lu Xin was startled: "Are you so confident?"

"Well," Qi Yuan said with a calm expression, "Since I was young, he hasn't had any particularly strict requirements on me. He hopes that I can make my own decisions about every major life event related to the future, and he rarely interferes actively."

"That's good, but..." Lu Xin hesitated to speak.

Qi Chengli is indeed an open-minded and healthy old man, but he is at ease with Qi Yuan, which doesn't mean he is completely at ease with Lu Xin.

He is grateful to Lu Xin for his lifesaver, but not every enlightened relative can accept his granddaughter being with a girl, not to mention the disparity in their family backgrounds.

Rather than caring about other people's eyes, she was more worried that she would not be able to satisfy Qi Yuan's family.

Qi Yuan paused, and gently held her face with both hands: "You are not allowed to think wildly."

Lu Xin's face was pinched back and forth by her, and she replied sullenly: "No."

"I know what you're worried about." Qi Yuan pinched her nose, "After the matter is over, let's have a good talk with them, shall we?"

Lu Xin raised her eyes, her gaze was full of water: "What if they don't agree?"

"No." Qi Yuan said, "If you really disagree, I will stalk them."

Lu Xin opened her eyes wide: "Ah?!"

"I told them, I've turned into such a ghost, only you will like me." Qi Yuan frowned, "If you don't agree, you have to agree."

Lu Xin touched her fingers and whispered, "It's not ghostly at all, it's still pretty."

Walking through the garden path, they came to the nursing home where Li Shu was.

Qi Yuan first took Lu Xin to visit Grandma Qi. The old man had gray temples and red eyes. He sat up straight from the hospital bed and called them to eat fruit.

Qi Yuan had a smile on his face, and his mood was much better than before.In front of grandma, she became an ordinary girl who could act like a spoiled child to her relatives.

Grandma Qi is indeed very good. Not only is Qi Yuan good, but she is also very kind to Lu Xin. Bathed in her loving eyes, Lu Xin can't help but think of her grandmother who is far away in the north.

In the same way, grandma called her name while taking out all kinds of candies from her pocket and stuffing them for her, whether she could finish them or not.

"You are Xiao Xin, right? I heard my old man often mentioned you." Grandma Qi said with a smile, "Did it take a lot of thought to take care of our little wish? She was a picky eater when she was young."

Qi Yuan also laughed: "Grandma, don't bring such a bag! Why do you want to expose me?"

"Hmph, don't I know how squeamish you are?" Grandma rolled her eyes, "You didn't want to stay at home when you were young, and ran to my grandparents every day, and I let you eat all my things!"

Qi Yuan refused to accept: "That's because you asked me to eat more."

"I tell you to eat, you just eat? Why haven't you been so obedient since I grew up?"

Sitting aside, Lu Xin couldn't help laughing as she listened to their jokes.She suddenly felt lucky that Qi Yuan still has such a good and caring family until now.

Qi Yuan helped grandma up from the bed, put the water glass to her lips: "How are you feeling recently? Are you feeling better?"

"Very good." Grandma took a sip and said with a smile, "It would be better if you come to see me more."

Lu Xin's heart moved, and hearing her say "you", it seemed that Lu Xin was automatically included in the ranks of her family.

"I will come to see you every week from now on." Qi Yuan said obediently.

Grandma looked at her vigilantly: "You have to keep your word." Then she greeted Lu Xin, "Xiao Xin, did Qi Yuan bully you at home? If she dares to bully you, you can tell grandma, grandma will teach her a lesson." .”

Lu Xin quickly waved her hand: "No, no, I hope she is fine!"

Qi Yuan frowned: "Can't you hope that I have ordered?"

Grandma said angrily: "What are you looking forward to? I'm looking forward to the fact that everyone is gone!" After she finished speaking, her eyes turned red and she lowered her head.

Lu Xin and Qi Yuan looked at each other, they were both taken aback for a moment, Qi Yuan hurried up and supported her shoulder: "Aren't I fine now? Don't talk about these sad things."

Lu Xin echoed: "Yes, everyone is fine now."

Grandma wiped her eyes with the back of her hand, and sighed, "Oh, don't say it, don't say it." She raised her hand to stroke Qi Yuan's hair, and said in an affectionate tone, "Grandma doesn't ask for anything now, I just look forward to seeing you Alright, don't send white-haired people to black-haired people anymore."

Qi Yuan smiled and said in a serious tone, "Okay, I will be fine."

She promised again and again, and then made Grandma Qi laugh again, and even took out two red envelopes from her pocket, saying that she didn't give them for the Chinese New Year this year, and she wanted to give them more.

Qi Yuan took the red envelope calmly, but Lu Xin blinked, still hesitating whether to take it or not.

"Take it." Qi Yuan retreated to her ear and whispered, "You won't feel at ease if you don't take her."

Lu Xin stepped forward to take the red envelope with both hands: "Thank you grandma."

"Hey." Grandma Qi smiled and rolled her eyes, "Don't be nervous, just treat it like your own home."

Lu Xin smiled shyly and quietly listened to their recounting.

Qi Yuan dragged a chair and sat down beside Lu Xin.Grandma chatted with great interest and was talking vigorously when the nurse opened the door and came in with medicine in her hand.

Grandma Qi frowned: "Are you going to drink medicine again?"

The nurse cut open the granule and poured it into a clean bowl: "Well, don't worry, I specifically told Dr. Zhao that the medicine I took today will not be too bitter."

Grandma Qi frowned, watching her boil the black medicine with boiling water, and handed the soup bowl that smelled of traditional Chinese medicine to her.

"I don't want to drink," she murmured.

Qi Yuan: "Grandma, you are not allowed to play tricks, you will be well after drinking the medicine."

"Alas..." Grandma Qi finally sighed, took the bowl, and drank it in one go.

The nurse smiled and said, "How is it? Is it much better than usual?"

Grandma Qi wowed, licking her tongue: "It's still bitter."

"Eat a candy." Qi Yuan stuffed the fruit candy into her palm and coaxed, "It won't be bitter after eating."

Grandma angrily unwrapped the candy wrapper and stuffed it into her mouth: "You are all in the same group!"

Both Lu Xin and Qi Yuan couldn't help laughing.

After sitting in the ward for a long time, Qi Yuan got up to say goodbye, Lu Xin followed her, and was about to go out when Grandma Qi suddenly stopped her.

"Xiaoyuan, you wait outside the door for a while." Grandma Qi looked at them, "I have a few words with Xiaoxin."

Qi Yuan was stunned for a moment, and replied: "Okay." She patted Lu Xin's head lightly, and said in a low voice, "Don't be nervous."

Lu Xin nodded, took a deep breath, and closed the door.

"Xiaoxin, come here." Grandma Qi waved to her with a smile.

When Lu Xin walked to the hospital bed, she held her hands. The old man looked at her carefully with his bright black eyes. His eyes were very kind, which gradually made Lu Xin less nervous.

"Xiaoxin." Grandma Qi held her hand, stroked the calluses on her fingertips, and sighed, "Grandma knows you are a good boy."

"Thank you for saving Xiaoyuan." She said softly, "Before I saw you, I always wondered what kind of person you would be."

"I saw you today, and you spoke as well as she did." Grandma smiled and stroked her hair, "I can finally hand her over to you with confidence."

……

Lu Xin pushed the door and walked out with a dazed expression on her face.

Qi Yuan leaned forward and asked worriedly, "What's wrong with you?"

Lu Xin turned her face to look at her, and said in a daze, "I think grandma found out about us."

"Our business?" Qi Yuan blinked, "You're talking about..."

Lu Xin: "She knows we're together."

When they opened the door and entered the ward just now, they were holding hands, and it was probably at that time that grandma saw them.

Qi Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then reflected: "Then what did she... say to you?"

Lu Xin tilted her head and smiled slightly: "She entrusted you to me."

She spread out her palm, revealing a bright and generous silver chain in her palm.

Qi Yuan's pupils constricted: "This is..." A long time ago, grandma held this necklace and told her that when she got married, she would give this necklace to her and pass it down from generation to generation.

"Grandpa bought it for her when she got married. Later, she wanted to pass it on to my dad, but my dad didn't want it."

Lu Xin opened her mouth slightly and took a deep breath: "That's really precious..."

"She recognized you!" Qi Yuan hugged her suddenly, "I said they would definitely like you."
