Chapter 3059 Be Mentally Prepared
That was true. Mr. Fu had seen his daughter’s skills overseas. Even Commander Xia of the company said that his daughter’s skills were not bad.
Mr. Fu’s serious expression was swept away. He put on his military cap again and wore it properly. There was a deep smile in his eyes. “I’ve seen your cousin’s skills. They’re indeed not bad.”
However, there were many aspects of being at a disadvantage. Even if she had good skills, she still needed to be vigilant. Mr. Fu still thought that he had to have a talk with her.
“I’ll talk to your sister later.” As soon as Mr. Fu finished speaking, a middle-aged doctor in a military uniform walked over.
He was most likely going to talk about the old man’s surgery and recovery plan in detail. Li Jinnian was about to engage in conversation with him, but Mr. Fu was worried. His gaze moved slightly, indicating for Li Jinnian to go in and guard the place. He then went to the doctor’s room with the doctor.
After entering the ward, Li Jinnian placed the blankets on the old man. He stood by the bed and held the old man’s thin hand. He stared at the old man who had yet to wake up from the anesthesia and said in a low voice, “Grandpa, Sister and I are here with you. Have a good rest.”
The old man with silver hair and a kind face slept quietly. No one spoke loudly, afraid that they would disturb the old man’s rest.
Ye Jian was actually very afraid of facing such situations because they always reminded her of Grandpa Gen, who had pa.s.sed away. She had to look at the heartbeat monitor a few times to feel at ease.
Xia Jinyuan was worried that Li Jinnian would be sad. It would also make Ye Jian, who had finally walked out of her sorrow, sad again. He said, “He won’t wake up for another hour or so. The drug hasn’t worn off yet.”
“Mhm.” Li Jinnian had seen the old man survive several serious illnesses, so his mentality was much firmer than Ye Jian’s. He carefully placed the old man’s hand back under the blankets before raising his head and looking at the two of them. “What did the two of you do in the ward just now?”
What did they do?
Ye Jian was puzzled. “We didn’t do anything. We’ve just been watching over Grandpa.”
“Why do you ask?” Xia Jinyuan narrowed his eyes. There was obviously something wrong with this question.
Li Jinnian looked at the two of them with a faint smile in his cold eyes. He said calmly, “My uncle has doubts about your relations.h.i.+p…”
The moment he opened his mouth, Ye Jian’s heart pounded like a drum. Even her expression changed. “My dad… Why would he suspect us? I-I-I… We didn’t do anything.”
It was the guilty look of a child whose parent had learned of their puppy love.
Xia Jinyuan, on the other hand, was much calmer. He asked the crux of the matter, “How did you answer?”
“That’s right. Cousin, how did you answer my father?”
“How can you be so sure that I answered my uncle?” Li Jinnian asked.
“Just now, you asked us if we did anything in the ward. Then, you said that my future father-in-law was suspicious of my relations.h.i.+p with Ye Jian. It’s obvious that my future father-in-law must have asked about us. You must’ve chosen to answer. Can you tell us what you said?”
Xia Jinyuan’s a.n.a.lytical ability had always been terrifying. He could acutely grasp the slightest loophole in a sentence. At the same time, he drew inferences and listed more problems. Then, he slowly deduced and obtained a possible result.
For instance, after what Li Jinnian had said so far, Xia Jinyuan had already guessed that Mr. Fu must have asked Li Jinnian.
