Chapter 78: Chapter 78 Why Let You Get Married

"Mm."

Shen Dang joked, "I thought I was disturbing your sweet dreams again."

Qiao Xi elegantly slurped her noodles in silence.

Shen Dang nonchalantly proposed, "I’ll come to pick you up now. We can go to the hospital after you’ve eaten breakfast."

Looking at the steaming bowl of noodles in front of her, Qiao Xi declined, "No need, I’m eating now."

She wasn’t skilled in cooking, and she didn’t always have the mood to prepare food for herself, but since she made it, she couldn’t waste it.

"Mm," Shen Dang replied with a single word and then hung up the phone.

Qiao Xi didn’t mind and focused on finishing her breakfast.

By the time she had done her makeup and changed her clothes, Shen Dang had arrived downstairs in his car.

Shen Dang glanced at the Fairy sitting in the passenger seat, his finger idly tapping on the steering wheel, "Did you eat breakfast?"

Qiao Xi buckled her seatbelt and glanced at him, "Didn’t I just tell you?"

How could Boss Shen manage a company with such a poor memory?

With a lazy, indifferent smile, Shen Dang replied, "Really? I thought you were lying to me. What did you eat for breakfast?"

Wasn’t it boring for Shen Dang to even think she would lie to him?

Qiao Xi couldn’t help but laugh, feeling quite irritated, "I had noodles!"

"Mm," Shen Dang withdrew his gaze.

Qiao Xi was left speechless by his antics.

The car stopped outside a restaurant, and Shen Dang turned to look at her, his features sharp and clear, "Do you want to get out, or will you wait for me in the car?"

There were many people outside, and Qiao Xi didn’t want to get out.

She drooped her eyelids, "I’ll wait here for you."

"Okay."

Shen Dang left and soon returned carrying a neat square bag.

He placed the breakfast in the back seat before driving off again.

The two arrived at the hospital and went directly to Old Master Shen’s ward.

Today, the butler was taking care of him.

Old Master Shen was awake and seemed to be in good spirits.

"Grandpa, did you have breakfast?" Shen Dang asked as he placed the breakfast on the coffee table.

The butler replied with a smile, "He did, some porridge. The doctor suggested lighter meals for now. But why have the young master and young madam come so early?"

"Yeah, why didn’t you sleep in a bit longer?" Old Master Shen chided, "It’s not like there’s nobody here to take care of me."

"We came to spend more time chatting with Grandpa," Qiao Xi was always gentle and obedient in front of the Shen Family.

Her beauty was so outstanding that in a regular family, one might worry that Qiao Xi’s appearance could cause trouble.

It was like the saying that full waters overflow and a full moon wanes; going to extremes will lead to the opposite effect.

But the Shen Family grew fonder of her the more they saw her.

Seeing Shen Dang eating his breakfast, Old Master Shen scolded, "Shen Dang, are you only thinking of yourself and neglecting your wife?"

The temper of an ailing old man was even stranger.

Shen Dang: "???"

It was as if he had committed some unpardonable sin.

Qiao Xi had made noodles without even considering a portion for him. What was wrong with him eating alone?

Qiao Xi: "..."

"Grandpa, I did have breakfast already. Please don’t be angry," Qiao Xi hurriedly soothed the old man, afraid that any upset might cause trouble.

Old Master Shen’s eyes were cloudy but still sharp with authority, "You’ve had breakfast? Aren’t the two of you living together? Xixi, tell Grandpa the truth. I will definitely stand up for you!"

There was a touch of pity in the old man’s eyes.

If Shen Dang had wronged Qiao Xi, Old Master Shen would definitely take her side without a second thought.

Indeed, old ginger is hotter than new.

From just a breakfast, he had managed to guess the situation.

Before they could speak, Old Master Shen said sternly, "I may have let you do your own things before, but now one of you has returned from abroad and the other isn’t filming anymore, so don’t give me that separation nonsense!"

Anger!

He didn’t know how much longer he would live, and his illness made Old Master Shen worry about the children.

He couldn’t leave them to their own devices any longer!

"Grandpa, you’ve pronounced us guilty before we’ve even had a chance to explain. Do you think that’s appropriate?" Shen Dang said with a nonchalant smile, always maintaining an air of calm elegance, "Even a judge must pronounce a verdict before sentencing. What you’re doing really isn’t good."

"Don’t you play games with me."

Shen Dang glanced at Qiao Xi helplessly, "This morning Qiao Xi insisted on eating noodles, and she wouldn’t accept it without a sunny-side-up egg. I had no choice but to make it for her. I didn’t want to eat, so I bought breakfast to eat with you, not knowing you’d already eaten."

From the moment Shen Dang uttered the first word, Qiao Xi’s pupils began to dilate.

She knew even before he finished that Shen Dang would talk nonsense.

And after hearing his whole fabrication, Qiao Xi couldn’t help but scoff inwardly.

He had to explain, but why throw the blame on her?

"Is that so?" Old Master Shen looked at Qiao Xi with skepticism in his eyes.

Qiao Xi pursed her lips, "Grandpa, that’s right."

Old Master Shen huffed in displeasure, "What’s wrong with Xixi wanting a sunny-side-up egg? Whatever she wants to eat, you should make for her! Isn’t it right to spoil your wife? And from the sounds of it, you even complained?"

Shen Dang: "???"

He hadn’t seen Old Master Shen behave like this before.

It seemed like someone had unlocked some vital energy channels in him.

Qiao Xi: "..."

Heaven!

She really wasn’t the type to make unreasonable demands!

Old Master Shen advised Qiao Xi, "Xixi, Ah Dang is your husband. You should order him around as you wish!"

The instruction was particularly heartfelt.

On the surface, Qiao Xi agreed cheerfully, but in her heart, she thought she dared not order Shen Dang around.

She was just riding in his car, yet he thought she treated him as a chauffeur. How could she even think of ordering him around?

Qiao Xi and Shen Dang stayed at the hospital with Old Master Shen for the morning, and the group had lunch together at noon.

Before leaving, Qiao Xi went to use the restroom.

Shen Dang helped Old Master Shen back to his bed.

"Grandpa, I’m heading back now."

Old Master Shen pointed to a stool, "Sit down first. I want to talk to you."

"Mm."

Old Master Shen’s eyes were cloudy and calm, "Do you know why I insisted you marry Xixi?"

Shen Dang lowered his gaze honestly, "I don’t know."

"I owe Xixi’s grandmother a favor. Xixi’s mother passed away in a car accident when she was young. In a place like the Qiao Family, Xixi must have faced many hardships. She is a poor child..."

"It’s also because for many years, you’ve never had a woman by your side. I think you and Xixi are very suitable for each other."

His grandson was too outstanding, the pride of heaven, admired by all; he had everything, and could easily get what he wanted. To him, there might be nothing unattainable, except for feelings—

What are feelings?

Perhaps he did not understand them.

Or perhaps he chose not to understand.

But how could a person be like a cold, emotionless machine?

He didn’t want to pass away without peace of mind, so when Qiao Zhenbin approached him, Old Master Shen gave Shen Dang a push.

Suitable?

Shen Dang chewed on the word with amused interest. He didn’t understand what was suitable or unsuitable.

To him, the only difference between Qiao Xi and other women was that she was his lawful wife, nothing more.

Was there any other difference?
