After Su Ting returned home, he couldn’t help but gaze eagerly at Gu Dai.

Noticing Su Ting’s gaze, Gu Dai approached him softly and asked, “Are you thirsty?”

Having said that, she didn’t wait for Su Ting to respond and poured him a gla.s.s of water.

Su Ting obediently drank the water, then looked at Gu Dai with smiley eyes, saying sweetly, “Daidai, I’m not thirsty; I just want to look at you.”

Gu Dai was momentarily startled by his words, and before she could respond, laughter came from the doorway.

Instantly regaining her senses, Gu Dai opened the door and said helplessly, “Grandma, when did you arrive?”

Xu Huan’s smile hadn’t completely faded, and she felt a bit embarra.s.sed upon meeting Gu Dai’s gaze, “I’ve just arrived, I didn’t mean to eavesdrop on your conversation.”

Her gaze involuntarily shifted towards Su Ting.

Xu Huan hadn’t expected the usually cold and courteous Su Ting to speak so softly in front of her granddaughter, his tone even carrying a whiff of coquettishness.

But it was precisely this demeanor that made him irresistible, and it was no wonder Daidai liked him.

Feeling Xu Huan’s gaze on him, Su Ting remembered what he had just said to Gu Dai and his face instantly turned red, calling out softly, “Grandma.”

Xu Huan nodded with a smile and asked with concern, “Su Ting, are you feeling better?”

Su Ting replied, “Yes, I feel much better now, almost fully recovered.”

Xu Huan then set aside her worries, “That’s good, that’s good.”

After she learned that Su Ting was hospitalized yesterday, she was still anxious, so she caught Meng Zhi who had arrived home and questioned him again.

After hearing about Su Ting’s critical condition, which could have led to him becoming a vegetative state, she was stunned and almost fainted.

Looking up at Gu Dai, Su Ting softly added, “It was Daidai who performed the surgery on me, and there’s been a series of follow-up treatments, which is why I recovered so quickly.”

Xu Huan nodded, having shared Su Ting’s condition with the family doctor, who exclaimed, “This is nothing short of a medical miracle!”

She trusted Gu Dai’s medical skills, so upon hearing about Su Ting’s condition, she did not doubt Meng Zhi’s words and did not rush to the hospital.

Thinking of this, Xu Huan couldn’t help but laugh, “I was planning to visit you in the hospital today, but now that you’re here, I’ll think of something delicious to cook for lunch to nourish your body.”

Hearing Xu Huan’s words, Gu Dai’s eyes narrowed slightly, “Grandma, didn’t you promise me yesterday…”

Xu Huan, caught off guard, quickly said, “I’ll go think about the lunch menu right now.”

Feeling Gu Dai’s gaze on her, she quickly changed the subject, “By the way, will Su Ci come for lunch today?”

Gu Dai sighed helplessly and replied, “I’ll call and ask in a bit.”

Xu Huan nodded, then began to maneuver her wheelchair away.

Gu Dai stood up, “Grandma, let me take you there.”

Xu Huan waved her hands, “No need, no need, I can manage the wheelchair smoothly now, you stay and keep Su Ting company, I can manage on my own.”

After she finished speaking, she maneuvered the wheelchair and left.

After she left, Su Ting’s cheeks burned as if scalded by boiling water. After a long time, he finally found his voice, “I, I… Grandma heard us.”

He was filled with regret, wishing he had restrained himself from being so clingy, now that his affectionate side had been witnessed by an elder.

Seeing Su Ting wishing he could hide away, Gu Dai couldn’t help but chuckle softly, “Hmm.”

Su Ting, feeling dejected, tapped his head, “Will Grandma have a bad impression of me? Will she think I’m not serious enough to be with you, and ask us to break up? How can I redeem my image…”

As he spoke, his eyes grew redder, looking at Gu Dai with a pitiful plea, “Daidai, do I still have a chance to be with you?”

Gu Dai was surprised at how quickly Su Ting had spiraled into worry.

She couldn’t help but laugh softly, quickly rea.s.suring him, “Don’t worry, Grandma is very open-minded. She won’t force us to break up. In fact, far from being angry, she was very happy and hopes we can continue to be close like this..”
