Chapter 252: Chapter 252: It’s Like eting the Parents
“My grandparents are fine; it’s nothing serious, so no need for you to go,” Chiang Xiao thought about the shock from Zhao Xin’s address of “Sister-in-law” yesterday and imdiately felt tense.
That wouldn’t do at all. Now that “Brother” had appeared, the lightning was going to strike even harder!
“What happened to your grandparents? Let
go with you and take a look,” ng Xinian didn’t listen to her.
There were only three generations in their family, and with both elders hospitalized, were they relying on this Kitten to hold down the fort? No wonder she hadn’t even taken care of herself this ti.
ng Xinian’s expression turned grave as he felt he hadn’t been able to help when she needed it, which made him feel sowhat uneasy.
“Really, there’s no need…”
“Cut the nonsense, which room are they in?” ng Xinian took her arm and started walking, encountering a nurse along the way, he asked in a deep voice, “Excuse , where is the inpatient building?”
The nurse was startled by his stern face and pointed in a direction subconsciously.
ng Xinian then pulled Chiang Xiao in that direction.
“ng Xinian, you…”
“Kitten, haven’t seen you for a few days, and you’re out of line, huh? Call
Brother Xinian!” He hadn’t corrected her before, was she getting addicted to this?
Chiang Xiao paused.
Well, he was seven years older than her, so calling him brother didn’t seem too bad.
But “Kitten”?
ng Xinian grunted, “Only you call
Brother Xinian, and only I call you Kitten, it’s fair.”
That day at Chu Liang’s house, her behavior reminded him of a very agile little kitten.
“Why do you call
Kitten?” She didn’t think she resembled a cat in any way!
ng Xinian tapped her head lightly, “Why so many questions!”
They reached the ward, and the door was open. To their surprise, there were quite a few people inside!
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven—seven pairs of eyes suddenly turned to look at them, and then they all froze.
Only one of them, a certain fool, called out clearly, “Captain?”
Captain?
The first to co round was Xu Linjiang.
He vaguely rembered that Zhao Xin had referred to Chiang Xiao as sister-in-law because of his captain, right?
Could it be, this captain was that captain?
Following his realization, Ge Dejun and Chiang Songhai Ge Liutao also caught on, and their eyes began to shift subtly as they stared intently at ng Xinian.
Then together, they noticed that ng Xinian was holding Chiang Xiao’s hand.
Almost imdiately, all eyes fell on their intertwined hands.
Chiang Xiao reflexively followed their gaze, looked down—
Hah!
She abruptly pulled away from ng Xinian’s hand as if electrocuted, jumping back a full three feet.
She better get away from him quickly! The situation didn’t look good!
She glared at Zhao Xin, you fool, what are you doing here!
Zhao Xin was also startled.
He had not expected the captain, who should have been recuperating in Capital City, to suddenly show up here! At the very least, he should have returned to the Alliance District of the provincial capital!
What on earth was he doing in Peace Town with an injury?
Was it because he was worried that Zhao Xin wouldn’t complete the mission and wouldn’t be able to deliver the goods?
Was he that unreliable?
ng Xinian had no clue why everyone in the room was looking at him so strangely.
Their gazes were complicated.
He looked toward Chiang Xiao.
Kitten, care to explain?
Chiang Xiao touched her nose and gave Zhao Xin another glare.
All thanks to this fool of a subordinate you’ve got! Courtesy of him!
“Little Little, who is this?” Chiang Songhai asked.
Chiang Xiao coughed and said, “Grandpa, he is Zhao Xin’s captain, ng Xinian, Captain ng.”
ng Xinian stepped forward, “Grandpa, Grandma, nice to et you for the first ti. I’m ng Xinian; you can call
Little ng.”
Chiang Songhai’s heart skipped a beat.
Why did this sound so much like what soone would say when eting the parents? Could it be that Little Little was really involved with him…
