Chapter 951: Chapter 951 What Did Xiao Hei and Old Jin See? (3)
At the villa’s entryway, An Zhihang sat quietly in his wheelchair, his head wound bound with thick bandages and a cervical collar around his neck to stabilize his bones. Despite the bulkiness, his refined and scholarly demeanor, as gentle as jade, could not be concealed.
"Little sister!"
His eyes felt a bit sour as he stared unblinkingly at the pale-faced An Yiqing in front of him, his heart filled with apprehension. Fortunately, his little sister was blessed by providence and had finally woken up!
"Big brother!"
An Yiqing, supported by Gu Yelin, walked into the living room with a beaming smile. An Zhiyan, who still couldn’t get out of bed, had been eagerly awaiting their arrival on the couch.
"Little sister, you..."
Upon seeing An Yiqing walking in, An Zhiyan’s mouth opened, but he choked up, unable to speak. His life had been saved by his little sister, who had given all the blood she could, and An Zhiyan vividly remembered every word An Yiqing had said in the operating room.
An Yiqing noticed the gratitude and guilt in An Zhiyan’s eyes and gently shook her head.
"Second brother, we as siblings don’t need apologies or thanks. We are related by blood, willing to lay down our lives for one another."
An Zhiyan wiped away the tears from the corner of his eyes and nodded vigorously. Words were often superfluous among family; she was his sister, his only sister. Just remembering that was enough.
The awakening of An Yiqing had once more filled the recently gloomy An Family Mansion with laughter and joyous voices. Kong Shi and Old Lady An, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, seemed to have taken an elixir that restored their vigor, even speaking with more confidence. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
However, An Yiqing, worried for the two elders, prevented them from cooking themselves, and the whole family began discussing "what should we eat?"
Just then, the doorbell of the villa rang, and Gu Yelin got up to answer it, greeted by the charming and smiling Gu Tingting.
"I could hear Grandpa An and Grandma An discussing what to eat from outside the door! Grandpa, see how accurate my guess was? Did I bring these at the right time?"
Gu Tingting playfully tilted her head to reveal Old Master Gu and Gu Weijun behind her, boasting as if requesting credit.
"Yes, yes, you’re the cleverest girl," Old Master Gu said with a mix of laughter and helplessness, nodding his head in indulgent agreement.
Elder An and others, coming out as they heard the voices, just caught the exchange between Gu Tingting and Old Master Gu, leading them to burst into hearty laughter.
"Old Gu, I really like your Tingting! If she hadn’t been helping out and taking care of Zhihang during this time, us old folks with our aching arms and legs would really have had a rough time!" Old Master An laughed warmly, his gaze filled with affection for Gu Tingting.
Having lived for over seventy years, Old Master An knew exactly what was on Gu Tingting’s mind. Anyway, he liked the girl very much, and if she could marry his eldest grandson, it would be more than perfect.
But Old Master An was also a sensible elder; young people pursued mutual affection, and arranged marriages weren’t the fashion anymore.
Still, mutual affection was indeed the ultimate truth, but, of course, one had to create opportunities for feelings to grow.
A sly smile crossed Old Master An’s mind as he pondered this.
An Yiqing, following behind her grandfather, saw his smile and shook her head helplessly, silently mourning for An Zhihang for a few seconds.
"Grandpa Gu, Uncle Gu, please come in and have a seat," An Yiqing said warmly, welcoming them.
Seeing An Yiqing’s slightly pale face, Old Master Gu quickly spoke up, "Child, you’ve just woken up, why are you out and about? Lao San, quickly help the young lady back inside to rest properly. We’re all family here; there’s no need for such formalities!"
