Zhang Manli's expression froze, and she walked beside him awkwardly. The old man might not know what she meant, but she did.
Shen Jingcheng was simply afraid that she would lay a hand on Qiu Qingqing.
She was actually a little perverted and jealous. Although she was just a little girl, she had almost attracted most of Shen Jingcheng's attention.
As for her legitimate girlfriend, he had always reacted coldly.
Other than the title of girlfriend, she really had nothing.
"Let's go home. "
Shen Jingcheng easily picked up the old woman and put her in the back seat. Qiu Qingqing neatly put the wheelchair in the trunk and went back to the back seat to accompany her grandmother.
Qiu Qingqing thought that Zhang Manli would get in the car, but she didn't expect that Shen Jingcheng didn't want her to get in the car at all. She turned the steering wheel and started the engine.
"Jingcheng! " Zhang Manli was a little anxious. She called his name outside the glass window, but he said lightly, "you take a taxi back. I'm going home. The road may not be smooth. "
With that, the car left.
Qiu Qingqing did not dare to turn back, but she felt that this move was too ruthless.
Of course, she did not dare to say anything.
She knew that this uncle had a bad temper. She was a coward, so how could she say anything against him.
When they reached home, the old man was already upstairs sleeping.
Recently, the old man's mood and state had not been very good, so he often entered this light sleep state. Qiu Qingqing wanted to talk more with her grandmother, but she also had to take into account her poor mental state.
"Qingqing, don't worry too much. " Auntie Chen saw the young lady like this and knew what she was worried about.
"Okay. " Qiu Qingqing also felt that her grandmother's time with her might be getting shorter and shorter, and she did not know what would happen in the future.
Downstairs, Shen Jingcheng sat at the dining table.
"come and eat. "
"Okay. " Of course, Qiu Qingqing would not go against her uncle's wishes. Although his words sounded like an order, she still endured it.
"Sit. "
Qiu Qingqing sat down obediently.
There were many dishes that she liked on the table. Qiu Qingqing immediately forgot that her uncle was present and began to eat heartily. Shen Jingcheng saw that she ate like a mouse. In a short while, he swept the small dishes in front of him.
"Eat slowly. It's very good for digestion and image. " When Qiu Qingqing heard Shen Jingcheng say this, she could only subconsciously pay attention to her image.
When she was finally full, Shen Jingcheng had already left.
"This weekend, I'll take you and grandma out to see wild swans, so you should get ready. " Shen Jingcheng's unexpected arrangement almost made Qiu Qingqing choke.
But after thinking about it, the old man indeed needed to relax.
It was already quite good for a busy man like him to take time out to relax with his and grandma. He never failed in his work, as if everything was going according to his plan.
"Okay, I'll tell grandma. "
After the two of them finished talking in a formal manner, Qiu Qingqing turned around and went upstairs. She planned to take an early shower and go to bed. Recently, she seemed to have been staying up late. Firstly, she couldn't sleep, and secondly, she was worried about her grandmother's health.
A nightmare kept echoing in her mind. Qiu Qingqing unconsciously grabbed the quilt in her hand as if she was caught in a nightmare.
When she woke up in the middle of the night, her head was full of sweat.
There were many stars outside the window. Qiu Qingqing suddenly got up and took a breath on the window. The slightly cool night sky mixed with the night wind made her particularly awake.
