516: My Qingge...is, after all, just a girl who needs care!

Inside the VIP ward.

Lin Xuan earnestly tried his best to soothe Old Master Su's emotions.

( ﾉ " ◑ ◑ ) ﾉ " ( ｡ • ́ ︿ • ̀ ｡ ) .

Of course, even though Lin Xuan was speaking so eloquently now,

his words, both spoken and implied, conveyed extreme confidence in Su Qingge's ability to survive on her own.

But all of this was predicated on his wife truly returning as promised the morning after tomorrow.

Otherwise, Lin Xuan wouldn't care about anything else; even if the 'Protective Jade Pendant' hadn't shattered to warn him, he would immediately spend 999,999 affection points to teleport to his wife's side... On the other side.

Old Master Su, after listening to his Granddaughter's husband, still looked stubborn, shaking his head vigorously, much like a willful old rascal.

He tightly covered his ears and loudly protested... "I won't listen, I won't listen! My Granddaughter is clearly so delicate."

"She's just a frail little girl, so delicate that she's easily swayed by the wind. Her small arms and legs, where would she get any strength? She's utterly helpless!"

"A gust of wind could probably knock her over, and she could easily catch a cold and fall ill if she's not careful..."

"With her weak and fragile body, how could she possibly take care of herself outside?"

"What if her achievements in the business world are impressive?"

"My Qingge... is ultimately just a little girl who needs to be protected!"

"She's been pampered by me since she was little, how could she endure such hardship?"

"No, I have to go find her. I can't let my precious Granddaughter suffer outside."

...

Old Master Su was agitated, struggling to pull out the IV needle from his arm, intending to embark on a journey to find his Granddaughter.

Seeing this,

Lin Xuan was startled and quickly pressed down on Old Master Su's actions, his face full of helplessness and a bitter smile... "Grandpa Su, calm down. You won't find Qingge if you go out now!"

"Moreover, your body hasn't fully recovered. It's not just that going out rashly would cause trouble;"

"I'd also have to divert some of the people I sent to find Qingge to protect you..."

"Sigh, Old Master Su. You have to believe in Qingge. She's very smart and very strong. She will definitely take good care of herself and come back soon."

"What we need to do now is wait patiently and believe that she will return safely..."

...

Under Lin Xuan's tireless persuasion, Old Master Su finally stopped making a fuss.

But his face still held deep worry and unwillingness.

"But, but Qingge... she's never faced a situation like this on her own before!"

"She's usually so clean, so pure and kind, she even gets sad for a long time if she accidentally steps on an ant. How could she possibly be doing well outside?"

"(ಥ ﹏ ಥ) Leaving everything else aside, just regarding food, you know how picky Qingge is. How could the food outside suit her taste?"

"My Granddaughter's eating habits are quite particular, and her stomach is relatively delicate. If something isn't to her liking, it easily affects her appetite and digestion."

"She must still be hungry right now. You say Qingge isn't eating well, isn't sleeping well, how could I, as her Grandpa, not worry?"

...

Facing Old Master Su's worries, Lin Xuan frowned and was momentarily stunned.

Only on the point of "food" could he not refute him.

He was well aware of his wife's pickiness when it came to food.

Especially ever since she started eating the dishes made by him, a "master chef"... Su Qingge completely lost her appetite for other dishes. He had to personally cook for every meal to open her appetite, and she would then devour an entire table of food like a whirlwind.

Of course, Lin Xuan was still very proud of having conquered his wife's "stomach."

Every time he saw Su Qingge prepare her bowls and chopsticks at mealtime, sitting obediently at the dining table,

her eyes sparkling like a little girl's (✪ ω ✪), an expression that would normally be impossible for her, waiting expectantly to be fed... Lin Xuan's heart was filled with indescribable satisfaction!!!

One word: awesome!!!

But now, Qingge wasn't by his side. Could she really get used to the food?

Was she still hungry?

How were her legs recovering? Would she get thin from hunger?

Even though they had only been separated for a day, Lin Xuan already missed the days of being close with his wife, and was worried about her daily life.

ε ＝ ε ＝ ε ＝ ( # ＞ д ＜ ) ﾉ Ah ah ah ah ah!!!!!

I can't think about it, I can't think about it. If I keep thinking, I'll become sentimental too ( 灬 ꈍ ꈍ 灬)... "Grandpa Su, Qingge has grown up."

"Her performance in the business world is enough to prove her independence and capability."

"We need to have faith in her and also take good care of ourselves. That way, when she returns, she can be at ease."

...

Lin Xuan took a deep breath and gently patted Old Master Su's shoulder, his tone firm.

These words, Lin Xuan said both to Old Master Su and to himself.

Under Lin Xuan's sincere gaze, Su Shengtian fell silent for a moment, then gradually calmed down and lay back on the hospital bed.

Evidently, he also realized that his irrational behavior was not only unhelpful in finding his precious Granddaughter but also caused trouble for his Granddaughter's husband.

Phew~~~

Finally, he calmed down~~~~

Lin Xuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

However, judging by the worried expression on Old Master Su's face, Lin Xuan knew that the worries in Old Master Su's heart would not dissipate so easily.

The first night of Su Qingge's disappearance was destined to be a sleepless one.

But he could only do his best to comfort him and look forward to Su Qingge's early return; she was the "special medicine" that could cure Old Master Su's emotional knot... Glancing at the somewhat deserted ward, Lin Xuan thought for a moment, then took out his phone and made a call.

Beep beep beep—

He dialed several times, but it remained unanswered. Just as Lin Xuan was glumly about to give up...

a cold voice finally came from the other end.

"Who is it?"

"Brother Su Fan, it's me."

Immediately, Lin Xuan recounted Old Master Su's tantrum in detail and hoped that he would come over again to examine Old Master Su.

"Okay, I'll be right over."

Receiving a positive reply, Lin Xuan nodded with satisfaction.

With his biological Grandson's company, Old Master Su would probably not be too lonely; at the very least, it could reduce the time he spent overthinking... "It's so late, wouldn't it be bad to disturb that child's rest? How about letting him come tomorrow?"

Upon learning that Su Fan was to be called over, Su Shengtian hesitated, not wanting to trouble others.

But for some reason, he also really wanted to see the young man named Su Fan again, feeling extremely conflicted.

"It's fine! Brother Su Fan happens to be nearby, it's on his way."

Hearing Lin Xuan say this, Old Master Su nodded and no longer dwelled on it...
