Stealing Your Heart

“No need to worry too much. It might take some time due to her old age, but she’ll recover eventually. However, I must warn you that it would be impossible for her to fully recover. There will definitely be some lingering side effects,” the doctor answered honestly.

Nodding in understanding, Su Zhan followed, as the nurses wheeled his grandmother to a room.

The doctor checked her over and made sure that the machinery hooked up to her was working fine. After that, he instructed them on what to look out for, before stating, “This is just a temporary room for her. You can choose either a normal room or a VIP room according to your financial situation. Please head to the In-patient Department to settle this matter.”

“I want the VIP room, of course!” Su Zhan did not even need to think about it. He had worked so hard to earn money just so his grandmother could enjoy the rest of her remaining years.

The doctor nodded in reply before leaving with the nurses.

Qin Ya draped Grandma Su’s coat on the back of the chair and offered, “I’ll go handle the hospitalization procedures while you stay here with her.”

Silence met her words.

With how close he is to his grandmother, he probably wants to be left alone right now. Hence, she quietly stepped out of the room and set off for the In-patient Department.

In truth, Su Zhan had heard her but deliberately kept quiet. His mind was in a mess and he thought that they both needed some time to calm down. Only when their minds were clear could they actually talk.

By the time Qin Ya had finished the hospitalization procedures, one hour had passed. The hospital was filled with people and she had wasted a lot of time because she had to wait in line, everywhere she went.

With the help of the hospital staff, Grandma Su was soon brought to a VIP room. Su Zhan had just finished tucking her under the blankets when his phone rang. Fishing it out, he saw that it was Shen Peichuan.

He accepted the call. “Peichuan.”

“Are you free tonight? Let’s have a meet-up! I’ve already called Jinghao.”

Su Zhan hesitated. With his grandmother in the hospital like this, he could not exactly leave her alone.

Not knowing that Grandma Su was ill and that Su Zhan was on the outs with Qin Ya, Shen Peichuan teased, “What, have you forgotten us buddies, now that you have a pretty wife at home? How could you put a woman before your friends?”

Not waiting for Su Zhan to answer, Shen Peichuan continued in a serious tone, “That matter with He Ruize has been settled. You had wanted to teach him a lesson, right? Now’s your chance to do as you please.”

“Where?” Su Zhan queried.

“The usual place.”

“What time?”

“Seven.”
