Stealing Your Heart Chapter 279
When he heard the question, Su Zhan’s grip on Qin Ya’s hand grew even tighter. He was scared about getting bad news.
It was rather painful for Qin Ya, but she didn’t make a sound, since it was pretty obvious that Su Zhan was very nervous.
“The patient fainted due to shock, so she’s not in mortal danger. Old age might have weakened her. There were some scratches on her that we’ve already patched up, so there’s no need to worry.”
Su Zhan was jittery with relief, and he didn’t know how to describe how he was feeling at that moment. Holding Qin Ya’s face, he clamped his lips down onto hers and smiled like a child. “My grandma is fine.”
Qin Ya had never seen him acting like that.
“Don’t rejoice just yet. She’s getting on in her years, which means that you should make sure that she doesn’t get emotional too often,” the nurse said, cutting him off coldly.
Su Zhan realized how rude he had been, and he coughed lightly to mask his embarrassment before making a sound of affirmation.
The nurse looked up at him with a disapproving look. “The elderly shouldn’t be experiencing anxiety so often. At this age, they can pass on easily if they get a shock, so as the younger ones, you should treat her with care.”
Su Zhan nodded profusely. “Yes, I understand.”
“Wait here, please. She will be out soon,” the nurse said, before turning around and leaving.
Su Zhan managed to calm down and wait by the door. Soon, the door opened, and his grandmother came out on a gurney. She was wide awake, she stretched out her hand upon seeing her grandson. Su Zhan immediately bent down and stroked her forehead. It was then that he noticed a red slap mark on her face.
He hadn’t noticed it when he rushed her to the hospital because he was too anxious.
His face darkened immediately. That bastard He Ruize!
He put two and two together, and realized that the nurse might have assumed that he had been abusing his grandmother; hence, giving him the cold treatment.
He kissed the back of his grandmother’s hand. “Everything’s fine. I’m here for you.”
“Who was that guy?” She asked, realizing that her grandson might know the person who assaulted her.
“Just some crazy guy. The police has taken him away, so you don’t have to worry about it. Get some rest,” Su Zhan replied gently.
Qin Ya helped the medical personnel pushed Su Zhan’s grandmother into a ward. She didn’t need to stay, but they had decided to keep her there for one night just for observation.
Su Zhan carried his grandmother onto the bed after they arrived, while Qin Ya helped to push the gurney out of the room. “Thanks for your help,” she told the medical personnel.
“It’s our job,” they replied, smiling.
Qin Ya closed the door and turned around.
“Come here, Ya,” the old lady said while gesturing for her to come closer.
She took Qin Ya’s hand and placed it into Su Zhan’s hand. “The only thing Su Zhan did right in his life was to marry you,” she said.
Qin Ya looked down in slight embarrassment.
Su Zhan grasped Qin Ya’s hand tightly. “Grandma, have you forgotten about your grandson?”
“You’re only good at annoying me,” his grandma pretended to be angry.
Su Zhan immediately gave in. “I’ll make sure I treat you better from now on.”
He had to make sure his grandmother was happy, since the nurse had told him to protect her from all forms of emotional distress.
“I’m hungry,” his grandmother said suddenly.
“I’ll go and get some food for you,” Su Zhan said, standing up. “What do you want to eat?”
His grandmother gave him a look, yet Su Zhan did not catch what she was hinting. “Why are your eyes twitching. Does something hurt?”
The old lady was speechless.
She rolled her mind’s eye. Why is this kid so dense? She thought.
Qin Ya understood what she meant. “I’ll go. What would you like to eat?” She asked, knowing full well that his grandmother just wanted to her to leave the room.
