Rich in the 70s: I Made a Rugged Veteran a Millionaire novel Chapter 172

Chapter 172: Chapter 172: Arrangements After Treatment

The four words "everything went smoothly" eased Jiang Cheng’s anxious heart.

It also made everyone else breathe a sigh of relief.

Jiang Cheng bowed deeply to Uncle Ma and said, "Thank you!"

Uncle Ma weakly waved his hand and shook his head.

Jiang Cheng quickly helped Uncle Ma to sit down, and Grandma Shen immediately brought over a warm cup of tea.

"Uncle Ma, have some water."

Jiang Cheng held the cup, and Uncle Ma drank a bit, finally feeling a bit better.

"I’m fine, I’ll be okay after a while. You go in and check on him."

Uncle Ma spoke, and Jiang Cheng responded, "I’ll just take a quick look and come right out. Please rest well."

Of course Jiang Cheng wanted to see Shen Que, but there were people with Shen Que, while Uncle Ma was alone.

She couldn’t leave Uncle Ma by himself; that would be too heartless.

Uncle Ma nodded, understanding Jiang Cheng’s intentions and feeling very appreciative.

Jiang Cheng, Grandma Shen, and the others all entered the room together.

"Brother Gao, could you please look after Uncle Ma?"

"Sure!"

Gao Zhonghua took a few steps out, and Director Lian stepped aside to give the family some space.

Shen Que, lying on the bed, forced a silly smile.

Jiang Cheng’s nose tingled as she teased, "Stop smiling like an idiot."

The main issue was Shen Que’s hair was soaking wet.

He must be in so much pain!

Yet this fool was still trying to act fine.

Shen Que’s smile got even sillier as he looked at Jiang Cheng and said, "I’m happy! From now on, I can stand behind you."

"Beside me, you’ll always stand beside me."

Jiang Cheng finished speaking, and Shen Que nodded.

The two shared a smile, full of deep affection.

"Brother, does it hurt?"

Shen Yue blinked with tears, looking at Shen Que with concern.

Shen Que glanced at Shen Yue and said, "It hurts, but I can bear it, and after taking the medicine, it doesn’t hurt as much."

Shen Yue nodded energetically, worriedly saying, "Make sure you take your medicine on time!"

"I will."

Shen Yue seemed a bit relieved, gazing at Shen Que with anticipation, "Brother, will you be okay after this?"

"Yes, indeed!"

"That’s fantastic!"

Shen Yue cheered and took a quick glance at Jiang Cheng.

Once Brother gets better, will Sister Jiang Cheng like him even more?

She surely will!

For a moment, Shen Yue felt quite happy.

Shen Que could tell from Shen Yue’s expression what she was thinking.

He also wondered why this little one always thought he wasn’t worthy of Jiang Cheng.

Though, he somewhat thought so himself.

Shen Que shifted his gaze to Xing Xing, who hadn’t spoken at all.

"Xing Xing."

Snapped out of his thoughts, Xing Xing looked at Shen Que.

"I’m fine, don’t worry."

Xing Xing nodded, a bit embarrassed, and said, "I know you’re fine, I wasn’t speaking because I was so nervous outside that I bit my tongue."

As he spoke, Xing Xing hissed and showed everyone the tip of his tongue.

This silly boy.

Shen Que chuckled, self-mocking, "I was overthinking things."

Watching the few people chat, Grandma Shen’s tense nerves slowly relaxed.

She let out a long sigh and said, "From now on, everyone has to take care of themselves. I’m getting too old for these scares."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Cheng quickly hugged Grandma Shen’s arm and said, "You’ll live to be a hundred and watch over us, Xing Xing, and Shen Yue as they establish their careers and start families. You’ll be the revered matriarch of the family in the future!"

Shen Yue hugged Grandma Shen’s other arm and nodded energetically, "Sister Jiang Cheng is right!"

Grandma Shen smiled.

"Good, good, good!"
