Chapter 395: He Didn’t Refute
One sentence left Xiao Zhongzhen speechless, and after a long silence, he finally said, "So you’re willing to risk your life for that girl.""My life is my own, of course, I want it. Grandpa doesn’t need to make me sound so noble."
Xiao Jinghuai spoke with a bit of indifference.
Xiao Zhongzhen was truly angry, he walked to the side of the hospital bed, propped his hands on his cane, and said, "Today, just give me a straightforward answer. Are you going to divorce Song Song or not?"
Xiao Jinghuai chuckled lightly, "Grandpa, I’ve said it before, you told me to marry her, and now you want me to divorce her. You think marriage is child’s play, but I don’t."
"You..."
Xiao Zhongzhen was so angry he nearly struck with his cane, but wisdom comes with age, and he wouldn’t lose his temper easily.
Even if he did get angry, he would quickly regain his composure and not become disorganized.
Xiao Zhongzhen suddenly smiled, "I know you’re deliberately opposing me, back then I asked you to marry Song Song, and although you did, you had Xing Quan handle the paperwork. Later, you even pretended to make it difficult for her to back off by sending Sister-in-law Zhou to trouble her."
"Unfortunately, that girl Song Song has a big heart, she didn’t take any of it to mind. Now, I think you two are unsuitable, and you don’t want a divorce. I tell you to go east, and you go west, just to not let things go my way."
"As for your feelings towards Song Song, I don’t see much... it’s just a fresh game to you, separation is only a matter of time."
"..."
When Song Song returned with the porridge, she just happened to see Xiao Zhongzhen leading people into the ward. She remembered the last time she promised to divorce Xiao Jinghuai, but now she decided to be with him properly.
Unsure of how to face it, she stood at the door with the porridge, naturally hearing the conversation inside clearly.
So, Xiao Jinghuai isn’t divorcing her because he likes her, but just to oppose Grandpa Xiao, right?
Is that it?
If it’s not like this, Xiao Jinghuai, then quickly refute it!
Why aren’t you saying anything? Is your silence a sign of agreement?
After a moment, the man’s deep voice came from the ward, "Grandpa can think whatever he wants, anyway, I won’t divorce her! She’s coming back soon with the porridge, please go back!"
"Fine, fine," Xiao Zhongzhen grimaced, "Hmph! I just want to see how long you two can last. Housekeeper Xu, Qiao Yu, let’s go!"
Qiao Yu hesitated a bit, she walked to the side of Xiao Jinghuai’s bed and whispered, "Brother Jinghuai, have a good rest, I’ll take care of Grandpa Xiao. Don’t worry, he’s just angry right now. Once he calms down, I’ll talk to him properly."
"Okay, thank you!"
Qiao Yu bit her lip, "Brother Jinghuai, saying thank you is unnecessary... I just hope you will be happy."
"..."
At this moment, just outside the ward door, Xiao Zhongzhen exclaimed in surprise and asked, "How long have you been standing here? Did you hear all of our conversation?"
Song Song softened her gaze, feeling a bit guilty, "I’m sorry, Grandpa Xiao!"
"I thought even if you’re not smart, at least you should be someone who keeps their word. Now it seems I overestimated you. Qiao Yu, don’t dawdle, quickly leave!"
Hearing this, Qiao Yu immediately stepped out of the ward, just in time to bump into Song Song who was about to enter—
Song Song immediately hugged the porridge tightly, fearing it would spill, and didn’t look at the expression on Qiao Yu’s face at the moment.
If she had looked, she would have seen a face with an extremely cold smile.
