Chapter 1716: Chapter 1734: A Tall Tree in the South (45)

Qin Shaonan entered the ward, looked at Qiao Qiao, "Go see her, I’ll wait here for you."

He walked over, sat down on the sofa, lit a cigarette, took a puff, and looked at Qiao Qiao.

Qiao Qiao smiled at Qin Shaonan, pushed open the door to the side ward, and entered, seeing her grandmother chatting with a nurse.

Grandma Qiao saw Qiao Qiao and said with a smile, "Qiao Qiao is here."

Qiao Qiao sat beside her grandmother, "Grandma, isn’t it the weekend? I came to see you."

The old lady looked at the nurse, "I told you my granddaughter is particularly beautiful, right? She’s very pretty, prettier than those big stars."

The nurse looked at Qiao Qiao, genuinely pretty, "Yes, really pretty."

Qiao Qiao felt a bit embarrassed from the compliments, "Grandma, look at you, isn’t this like Grandma Wang selling melons, self-praising her own goods?"

The old lady looked at Qiao Qiao, "If Grandma has melons, why shouldn’t I praise them?"

Qiao Qiao laughed, the nurse also laughed. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

The old lady thought of the hospital transfer, "Why did your mom agree to help me transfer here?"

Qiao Qiao, "..."

Grandma thought it was Mom?

Ha ha, how could it be Mom!

She hadn’t had time to speak up when the nurse said, "Old lady, wasn’t it Captain Qin who arranged for your transfer?"

Captain Qin?

The old lady was a bit puzzled, looked at the nurse for a moment, then at Qiao Qiao.

Qiao Qiao, "..."

Is it an appropriate time for Instructor Qin to appear now?

Exposed on the first day?

The old lady looked at Qiao Qiao’s expression, and asked solemnly, "Qiao Qiao, who is Captain Qin?"

Thinking that Grandma would never accept Instructor Qin, after all, the difference between her and Instructor Qin could not just be described as heaven and earth.

She smiled, "Didn’t my dad serve in the military before? This is a comrade from his army days, they were close, he heard about your situation, so he helped with the transfer."

The old lady looked at Qiao Qiao, carefully discerning her expression.

Qiao Qiao smiled at the old lady, her expression very natural.

The old lady was still uneasy.

Although she didn’t understand much, a Captain should be a significant position in the army. Qiao Qiao was beautiful, but she always worried, afraid Qiao Qiao might suffer, more worried that Ci Wan might lead Qiao Qiao astray.

Qiao Qiao looked at the old lady, "He’s just outside, I’ll call him in."

The old lady nodded.

Qiao Qiao left the ward, headed to the living room, looked at Qin Shaonan, walked to his side, and asked very quietly, "How is the soundproofing in this room?"

Qin Shaonan, "Should be quite good."

Qiao Qiao was relieved upon hearing this, walked to Qin Shaonan’s side, "Instructor Qin, I have a favor to ask."

Qin Shaonan looked at her charming demeanor, furrowed his brows, tossed the cigarette aside, "Speak properly."

Qiao Qiao, "..."

Isn’t acting cute allowed?

Aren’t they saying that a woman who acts cute leads a better life? Seems like it doesn’t work on him!

She looked at Qin Shaonan, feeling a bit embarrassed, stammeringly said, "My grandmother wants to see you."

Qin Shaonan looked at Qiao Qiao, stood up, ready to go in with her.

Qiao Qiao quickly held him back, "Wait, there’s a little problem."

Qin Shaonan stopped, looked at Qiao Qiao, "Say it."

Qiao Qiao looked at Instructor Qin’s ascetic face, unsure of the consequences if she spoke, "I... I just told my grandmother that the person who helped her transfer was my dad’s former comrade."

Qin Shaonan, "Your dad?"

Qiao Qiao said softly, "My dad passed away in a car accident when I was very young."

Qin Shaonan looked deeply at Qiao Qiao, didn’t say a word.

Qiao Qiao looked at him pitifully, "Please, just say you’re forty later."

"Forty?" Qin Shaonan looked at Qiao Qiao, his eyes growing increasingly cold, his voice as chilly as if it just came out of a freezer, "Do you think I look forty?"
