Only after Shi Hanchu and Su Manman left that he asked Yang Weiyi excitedly, “Weiyi… tell me, did God Shi get together with Manman?”
Yang Weiyi packed up her makeup tools and remained silent. She had no idea if Shi Hanchu was together with Su Manman.
But… she didn’t really like this feeling!
It was as if Shi Hanchu had already forgotten about Jiang Mingzhu and her.
Tears welled up in Yang Weiyi’s eyes. She used to be with Jiang Mingzhu, and she knew that even if Jiang Mingzhu didn’t mention it… she still liked Shi Hanchu very much.
Jiang Mingzhu was no longer around…
However, because… Su Manman had helped her mother and given her a job, she started liking Su Manman!
In addition, Su Manman made that scumbag, Du Lingyang, go to jail. She was truly grateful to Su Manman…
She liked Su Manman more and more.
However, despite feeling grateful and fond of Su Manman, Yang Weiyi felt that she had betrayed Jiang Mingzhu.
She felt really conflicted.
When she saw that Shi Hanchu seemed to have fallen for Su Manman, her heart ached even more for Jiang Mingzhu.
What to do?
First her, then Shi Hanchu…
Then, who else would like Sister Mingzhu in the future?
No! She couldn’t betray Sister Mingzhu!
Yang Weiyi gritted her teeth and tried her best to think about Su Manman’s bad side. From then on, she would become Su Manman’s anti-fan!
However, Su Manman had given her such a job, and her salary was so high!
She really couldn’t hate Su Manman.
…
In the car.
Su Manman didn’t say much throughout the journey. Even though she was seated in the back, she was still wearing a cap, mask, and sunglasses, afraid that someone would recognize her.
Shi Hanchu glanced at Su Manman through the rearview mirror and said to her, “You don’t have to be so nervous. There’re no paparazzi following us. Everyone knows that Director Chen Wenhua’s production crew is strict. The paparazzi probably think that we’re still filming on the set.”
“There’s no wall in this world that doesn’t leak out!” Su Manman said. “If people find out that you’re going to visit a Chinese doctor with me, they’ll dare to speculate that I’m pregnant and we’re having children. If it’s out on the news tomorrow, how would I still get married?”
“You’re still young…” Shi Hanchu said, “It’s too early to get married!”
“Heh…” Su Manman sneered. “You’re saying it… as if you’re interested in me and waiting for me to grow up!”
Shi Hanchu said nothing.
Shi Hanchu drove his car all the way to the Huanshan villa district, which surprised Su Manman.
She frowned as she watched Shi Hanchu’s back view…
Shi Hanchu, could it be… that he was bringing her to her grandpa’s place to look at her condition?
Ye Qinghan was born in a Traditional Chinese Medicine family, and Jiang Mingzhu’s grandfather was an authoritative figure in Traditional Chinese Medicine. However, he was old and retired now.
She remembered her grandpa had already stopped treating people from when she was still young.
Many people came to ask for help, but Grandpa had refused them. Why would he treat Shi Hanchu’s friend?
Moreover, she had no idea how Shi Hanchu met her grandpa.
In her memory, her grandpa was a loner, especially after her grandmother passed away. Even his own daughter, Ye Qinghan, rarely met him, much less an outsider.
Just as Shi Hanchu parked his car outside her grandpa’s villa, Su Manman still didn’t believe that her grandpa would treat Shi Hanchu’s friend.
However, she heard her maternal grandfather calling out to Shi Hanchu as he was watering flowers on the balcony.
“Come in quickly!” Jiang Mingzhu’s grandfather, Su Moqing, put down the watering can and said to Shi Hanchu with a smile, “Was there a lot of traffic on the way? I’ve been waiting for you for half a day! The food is getting cold!”
Su Manman: “???”
In her memory, her grandpa had never been so warm even to her mother, Ye Qinghan!
Su Manman sucked in a cold breath and looked at Shi Hanchu. Could it be that… Shi Hanchu had an unspeakable relationship with her grandpa?
For example… his illegitimate child?
No, no!
She must have been deeply influenced by Fu Qingquan, her grandfather in the Fu family. Not everyone has an illegitimate son in their later years.
Her grandparents were a loving couple, so there shouldn’t be a problem of him having an extramarital affair!
She remembered that there was a scandal of a celebrity who had an extramarital affair when she was young. Her grandpa was even angrier than her grandmother, saying that this man had no sense of responsibility.
After getting out of the car, Su Manman couldn’t help but ask Shi Hanchu in a soft voice, “How… did you know this old Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner?”
“This is Mingzhu’s grandpa…” Shi Hanchu said.
Of course, Su Manman knew that this was Jiang Mingzhu’s maternal grandfather.
“You met her through Jiang Mingzhu?” Su Manman probed.
Shi Hanchu opened the door to the villa and turned to Su Manman. “No, Old Master Su… saved my life.”
Su Manman: “???”
Why didn’t she know about this?
Su Manman suddenly realized that even in her past life… she didn’t understand Shi Hanchu’s past that well!
Shi Hanchu had never said it before…
Shi Hanchu had told her that his parents had died early. As for where he grew up… He only said that he had once lived in England. Later, he moved to the United States. He then moved to Venice and lived there for a period of time. Then, after returning to China, he was discovered by Tu Jie and entered the entertainment industry.
Then… how did Grandpa save his life?
Just as they reached the door, Su Moqing had already opened it for them. He removed his glasses and hung them around his neck, smiling as he looked at Su Manman. “This is the young lady you mentioned!”
Shi Hanchu nodded. He reached behind Su Manman’s waist and gently pushed her forward.
Su Manman was instinctively afraid of her grandpa. She turned around and glanced at Shi Hanchu. When she received Shi Hanchu’s gaze, she bowed. “Hello…”
Su Moqing smiled and nodded. “Come in first…”
Su Manman followed behind her grandpa. As she walked in, she heard her grandpa say, “I heard about your condition from Hanchu. Did you lose your sense of taste after you got hit in the head?”
Su Manman nodded cautiously. “Mm! Yes…”
“How about this? You two probably haven’t eaten yet. Let’s eat first. I’ll take your pulse after dinner,” Su Moqing said.
“Alright.”
Su Manman’s attitude towards Su Moqing was rather respectful.
Coming back to Su Moqing’s house after all these years, Su Manman realized that her grandpa’s house was still exactly the same as before her grandmother passed away. The same old items are still in their place, and he still didn’t have a television.
Su Manman entered the kitchen and saw Jiang Mingzhu’s photo at the stairs…
All the way up the stairs were photos of Jiang Mingzhu growing up.
Su Manman silently followed the old man into the dining room. She thought that the old man had always been cold and indifferent towards her since she was young.
On the dining table, there were the usual four dishes and one soup. They were all vegetarian dishes. In his later years, the old man paid a lot of attention to his health. The soup was pig lungs soup brewed in herbs.
