Chapter 1751: Chapter 1752: No Experience Taking Care of Elders
"Not hungry."
Rong Yan didn’t know what she should do again, and after standing still for a moment, she thought for a while and asked, "Do you want to drink some more water?"
She saw the person on the hospital bed hesitated for a moment before nodding.
Rong Yan breathed a sigh of relief, held the cup, brought it to her lips, and after feeding her some water, used a tissue to wipe her mouth.
Trying to make conversation, she said, "Tomorrow, after Little Baby finishes school, I’ll bring him over to see you. He recently learned how to make dumplings, we even made some together yesterday. When you’re feeling better, he and I will bring some to the hospital for you to try his handiwork."
"Oh right, he started first grade, and tomorrow their class has an assessment test, I wonder if he’ll do well, maybe even take first place. He was placed in a gifted class during the entrance test, and the principal said his IQ reached 198, though we’re not sure if it’s true or not..."
She found a topic related to Li Duidui and started to chatter softly. Jiang Chenyue leaned back on the pillow, quietly listening to her speak.
In her chatter, it was as though she could see a beautiful little boy appearing in front of her, so well-behaved and so adorable.
The key was, the little boy was happy, living in a loving family, growing up happily with his mom and dad.
Rong Yan could feel that her gaze was strange, initially unblinking, as if not wanting to look away for even a second, then it turned to contentment, and suddenly it became sad... that kind of sadness almost spread to Rong Yan, making her heart clench.
After warming the bowl of peeled grapes in the microwave next to her, she fed some to Jiang Chenyue and chatted with her for a while longer.
Jiang Chenyue had just had surgery not long ago, just as the doctor said, she wasn’t awake for very long. Rong Yan could tell she was forcing herself to stay conscious to listen to her talk, but it wasn’t long before she fell asleep again.
"...Mrs. Jiang?"
She called twice and found that Jiang Chenyue had fallen asleep.
She quietly adjusted the bed back to its original position, tucked in the quilt, pulled back the chair, and walked toward the door.
...
Outside, Qin Jun was waiting, and Chu Xi was nowhere to be seen.
Seeing her come out, he quickly asked, "How is Aunt’s condition?"
"She’s already asleep."
Qin Jun relaxed, nodded and said, "That’s good, sleeping helps with recovery, if she’s willing to sleep, that’s good..."
Rong Yan, having not slept all night, felt a splitting headache as she checked the watch on her wrist. It was already half-past seven in the morning. She rubbed her throbbing temples and said to the person at the door, "Since Mrs. Jiang has woken up smoothly, I won’t disturb further, I’ll head back first."
Qin Jun immediately picked up the car keys and said, "I’ll give you a ride."
"No..." Before she could finish.
She heard Qin Jun’s uncompromising voice, "It’s hard to get a taxi this early in the morning at the hospital entrance, and I also need to go back briefly to pick up some daily necessities for Aunt. It’s on the way."
Chu Garden and the old house were indeed in the same district, not particularly far from each other. Rong Yan didn’t insist and said, "Thank you."
"Let’s go."
Qin Jun didn’t engage with her further, leading the way ahead.
Rong Yan followed closely behind him, originally thinking there would be nothing to say, but unexpectedly Qin Jun initiated the conversation, "Rong Yan, what did my aunt talk to you about just now?"
Rong Yan was surprised that he started a conversation, and to avoid awkwardness, she replied, "Mrs. Jiang wasn’t feeling well, so she didn’t talk much; it was mainly me talking."
