n“What? You’re not listening to my orders anymore?” Elder Shen wiped some blood from the corner of his lips. His eyes were sharp like an eagle’s. “How much have I invested in this hospital? What do I get in return? You’re just making me wait for my death while forcing me to do that darned dialysis! You might as well kill me with a knife!”

nHe lost his temper, frightening the nurse until she didn’t dare to argue back.

n“Elder Shen, don’t be upset. I will go contact them right now!”

nA bunch of nurses and doctors rushed over and took Elder Shen away.

nThe remaining old men also left.

nAfter the door closed, only Elder Huo, Huo Yunque, and Song Yaoyao remained.

nFor some reason, the atmosphere was a little strange. Song Yaoyao shrunk back her neck.

n“Song Yaoyao!”

n“Yes, Gege!”

nSong Yaoyao instinctively stood upright with her hands behind her back as guilt appeared in her eyes.

nHuo Yunque pointed at her. In the end, he turned and left without saying anything.

n“Errr, Gege? Where are you going…?”

nShe looked at Elder Huo. “Grandfather, is Gege angry?”

n“How could he be?” Elder Huo grinned happily. “You’re so cute. Who could bear to be angry at you? He may look cold, but he actually cares about you a lot!”

n“Really?” !”

nSong Yaoyao was immediately happy. “Gege’s always cared about me. Don’t scold him from now on. He is a good person! And he particularly dotes on me!”

nLooking at her proud expression, Elder Huo couldn’t help but laugh.

nHe waved his hand. “You young people can resolve your own matters. I’m getting old. I can’t be bothered dealing with it!” he sighed. “You should go. I want to sit here for a little longer. It’s time you go look for him.”

n“You’re not old. I bet you can live to 100!”

nShe stuck out her tongue and quickly ran outside. “I shall go comfort Gege~ See you later!”

n“Comfort?”

nElder Huo burst into laughter as he sat at the mahjong table and started stacking the messy tiles.

nBecause of Huo Yunque’s personality, Elder Huo had worried multiple times that he would grow old and lonely.

nNow, he didn’t have to worry anymore.

nIn fact, he felt his son was quite lucky to encounter someone at his age who was willing to give him all her affection. A girl who was willing to protect him and take care of his feelings.

nHowever, there were many forms of ‘protecting’.

nElder Huo had never asked Huo Yunque about his love life. Ever since he handed the Huo Family over to him, all of this was no longer his business. He didn’t care who he ended up with — boy or girl, poor or on the same level — he could do whatever he wanted.

nBut in Elder Huo’s eyes, if he couldn’t protect the girl that he liked, then he would be considered trash.

nSong Yaoyao jogged over to the resting area. Huo Yunque was seated on the sofa with his back facing her. She carefully snuck over and stretched out her hands.

n“Guess who—”

nBefore she finished speaking, someone tugged on her wrist, and her world flipped upside down until she went from standing to sitting.

nBut what was she sitting on…?

nSong Yaoyao blushed as her eyes sparkled like stars. “Gege…”

nHuo Yunque leaned back calmly and raised his eyebrows. “Are you trying to do something bad?”

n“N-no!” Song Yaoyao stuttered. She had no intention of doing anything bad. But why did she feel guilty? “I simply wanted to joke around with you!”
